1
00:00:00,560 --> 00:00:05,880
Speaker 1: Welcome in Friday edition Clay Travis buck Sexton Show. Appreciate

2
00:00:06,040 --> 00:00:08,719
Speaker 1: all of you hang out with us as we are

3
00:00:08,800 --> 00:00:13,600
Speaker 1: rolling through the Friday edition of the program. Lots of

4
00:00:13,680 --> 00:00:17,760
Speaker 1: fun things coming your way. President Trumps scheduled to have

5
00:00:18,040 --> 00:00:22,600
Speaker 1: a media availability and an announcement in the Oval Office shortly.

6
00:00:23,120 --> 00:00:28,320
Speaker 1: He has continued to discuss the rapid decline in DC's

7
00:00:28,360 --> 00:00:32,800
Speaker 1: crime rate, including in an unscheduled visit to a local

8
00:00:33,080 --> 00:00:36,640
Speaker 1: Trump para paraphernalia. I guess it would say Trump sort

9
00:00:36,680 --> 00:00:40,000
Speaker 1: of souvenir shop near the White House. He went over

10
00:00:40,479 --> 00:00:44,480
Speaker 1: in his Trump was right about everything hat and made

11
00:00:44,479 --> 00:00:48,440
Speaker 1: an unscheduled visit a little bit earlier this morning. I

12
00:00:48,479 --> 00:00:51,640
Speaker 1: am told part of the announcement that Trump is going

13
00:00:51,680 --> 00:00:55,720
Speaker 1: to make today not super significant, but is related to

14
00:00:55,960 --> 00:00:59,800
Speaker 1: the World Cup, which the United States will be hosting

15
00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:04,880
Speaker 1: next year. And we will have Andrew Giuliani, son of

16
00:01:05,080 --> 00:01:08,399
Speaker 1: Rudy Giuliani, on the program in the third hour to

17
00:01:08,600 --> 00:01:12,880
Speaker 1: discuss some of those details. All that coming your way

18
00:01:13,600 --> 00:01:17,200
Speaker 1: as we are talking to you. The state of Texas

19
00:01:17,840 --> 00:01:23,920
Speaker 1: is poised to remake the congressional map there the battle

20
00:01:24,240 --> 00:01:28,560
Speaker 1: with California now having a referendum to potentially remake their

21
00:01:28,600 --> 00:01:31,920
Speaker 1: congressional map as well. This is a fight that might

22
00:01:32,120 --> 00:01:35,520
Speaker 1: make sense for Gavin Newsom because it puts him more

23
00:01:35,640 --> 00:01:40,039
Speaker 1: in the center of the national stage. But unfortunately for him,

24
00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:44,080
Speaker 1: all of the blue states by and large have already

25
00:01:44,200 --> 00:01:50,000
Speaker 1: redone their congressional districts to effectively box out many different

26
00:01:50,080 --> 00:01:58,200
Speaker 1: parts of the overall landscape when it comes to red

27
00:01:58,440 --> 00:02:04,400
Speaker 1: state voters being respected even in locations that are you know,

28
00:02:04,440 --> 00:02:06,520
Speaker 1: like Illinois, where you have forty four percent of the

29
00:02:06,560 --> 00:02:10,920
Speaker 1: vote going for President Trump, and in Illinois, fourteen of

30
00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:16,280
Speaker 1: the seventeen congressional seats are in Democrat hands. So ultimately,

31
00:02:16,360 --> 00:02:18,640
Speaker 1: I think this is going to work to Republican favor.

32
00:02:18,720 --> 00:02:20,799
Speaker 1: As I said before, a study in The New York

33
00:02:20,840 --> 00:02:24,040
Speaker 1: Times says that the congressional map is a little bit

34
00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:27,440
Speaker 1: slanted in favor of Democrats based on the results of

35
00:02:27,480 --> 00:02:31,320
Speaker 1: the twenty twenty two and twenty twenty four elections. So

36
00:02:31,400 --> 00:02:34,240
Speaker 1: we will discuss some of that as that decision is

37
00:02:34,280 --> 00:02:38,320
Speaker 1: coming down. John Bolton a raid this morning. We will

38
00:02:38,360 --> 00:02:43,000
Speaker 1: break that down here momentarily, and we've got some fun

39
00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:48,679
Speaker 1: language changes that the Democrat Party is discussing. We will

40
00:02:48,720 --> 00:02:51,560
Speaker 1: have some fun with that for words that they say

41
00:02:51,680 --> 00:02:54,600
Speaker 1: that they no longer want to be included. But I

42
00:02:54,600 --> 00:02:57,400
Speaker 1: would say probably the biggest story as we start off

43
00:02:57,440 --> 00:03:03,640
Speaker 1: today is the fact that John Bolton's home was rated. Buck,

44
00:03:03,720 --> 00:03:06,760
Speaker 1: this is an intelligence related story, So I'm going to

45
00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:12,120
Speaker 1: tee it up for you as many different people are

46
00:03:12,200 --> 00:03:16,359
Speaker 1: out there reacting to this. Bolton has been a prominent

47
00:03:16,400 --> 00:03:23,399
Speaker 1: Trump critic and and this raid seems designed to investigate

48
00:03:23,480 --> 00:03:26,680
Speaker 1: whether he has been a source for the leaking of

49
00:03:26,880 --> 00:03:31,960
Speaker 1: classified documents, both in Trump one point zero and maybe beyond.

50
00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:34,400
Speaker 1: Is that a fair assessment in your mind, Buck, of

51
00:03:34,440 --> 00:03:35,880
Speaker 1: what exactly is going on here.

52
00:03:37,520 --> 00:03:41,320
Speaker 2: Obviously we need more details to really understand everything that's

53
00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:45,040
Speaker 2: that's going on with this, But I gotta tell you,

54
00:03:45,120 --> 00:03:48,400
Speaker 2: I mean there's a few things that jump out at

55
00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:53,000
Speaker 2: me right away. One is that there's a he wrote

56
00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:56,400
Speaker 2: a book, right and in this book he he says

57
00:03:56,440 --> 00:04:00,000
Speaker 2: he got it reviewed. And I mean, look, this is

58
00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:02,240
Speaker 2: a former Trump guy too, so it's interesting because he

59
00:04:02,280 --> 00:04:05,480
Speaker 2: was a Trump national security advisor. It's not a Democrat

60
00:04:05,480 --> 00:04:08,920
Speaker 2: who had his house raid rated. So they've searched his

61
00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:11,760
Speaker 2: home and his office of John Bolton. Have you ever

62
00:04:11,760 --> 00:04:13,600
Speaker 2: done a hit with Bolton? Clay, I actually did. I

63
00:04:13,600 --> 00:04:15,440
Speaker 2: don't think so. I don't know him.

64
00:04:15,480 --> 00:04:17,680
Speaker 1: I've never met him. I don't think I have any

65
00:04:18,040 --> 00:04:19,680
Speaker 1: any interaction with him in any way.

66
00:04:20,600 --> 00:04:23,360
Speaker 2: Well, yeah, so I've I've met him a couple of times.

67
00:04:23,440 --> 00:04:26,200
Speaker 2: The investigation in Bolton, according to New York Times, here,

68
00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:31,160
Speaker 2: seeks to determine whether he illegally shared or possessed classified information. Uh,

69
00:04:31,560 --> 00:04:34,400
Speaker 2: and that's pretty much what we've got. There are a

70
00:04:34,400 --> 00:04:36,520
Speaker 2: few things that could be at issue here. One is

71
00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:40,760
Speaker 2: the book that he wrote, and the book he says

72
00:04:41,080 --> 00:04:45,360
Speaker 2: was cleared. I've been told that there's something about a

73
00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:50,440
Speaker 2: verbal clearance that he received for it. Basically, there may

74
00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:54,480
Speaker 2: be some dispute over whether the book went through and

75
00:04:54,520 --> 00:04:56,520
Speaker 2: this I went through this process. For any of you

76
00:04:56,560 --> 00:04:58,960
Speaker 2: who are wondering why has my book taken so long?

77
00:04:59,040 --> 00:05:03,040
Speaker 2: It was many mon months of just pure bureaucratic delay.

78
00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:06,360
Speaker 2: But I knew Clay I had to get under and

79
00:05:06,400 --> 00:05:12,159
Speaker 2: this is under both a NDA and under National security

80
00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:15,280
Speaker 2: statute that I signed to go to the CIA twenty

81
00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:18,240
Speaker 2: years ago that if I'm writing anything that touches on

82
00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:22,760
Speaker 2: my CIA experience, classified information, etc. You have to submit

83
00:05:22,960 --> 00:05:25,360
Speaker 2: And I had to get this letter. It's almost like

84
00:05:25,400 --> 00:05:27,839
Speaker 2: getting a clearance letter from a prosecutor, like you're good,

85
00:05:27,839 --> 00:05:31,480
Speaker 2: You're not under investigation anymore. I had to get a

86
00:05:31,520 --> 00:05:35,680
Speaker 2: clearance letter. Your book is fine. Without that letter, you

87
00:05:35,839 --> 00:05:39,359
Speaker 2: are liable for anything that is in that book that

88
00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:44,360
Speaker 2: the National Security Apparatus decides was classified. So the book

89
00:05:44,440 --> 00:05:47,479
Speaker 2: could be an issue. That's part one. I do remember

90
00:05:47,520 --> 00:05:49,320
Speaker 2: thinking I have to go and check on this team.

91
00:05:49,560 --> 00:05:53,560
Speaker 2: But I remember he got a book out very fast

92
00:05:53,640 --> 00:05:57,680
Speaker 2: after he was done with his time in the Trump administration,

93
00:05:58,480 --> 00:06:01,560
Speaker 2: so fast that I recall think king maybe he had

94
00:06:01,640 --> 00:06:03,599
Speaker 2: some kind of a buddy on the inside who moved

95
00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:06,480
Speaker 2: it along for him. But maybe maybe he played a

96
00:06:06,520 --> 00:06:09,320
Speaker 2: little fast and loose. I don't know. The other possibility

97
00:06:09,400 --> 00:06:13,240
Speaker 2: is that he had classified documents in his home. To me,

98
00:06:14,440 --> 00:06:20,520
Speaker 2: that would be so stupid, it's unthinkable except Biden, as

99
00:06:20,560 --> 00:06:22,400
Speaker 2: we all know from when he was vice president and

100
00:06:22,440 --> 00:06:25,760
Speaker 2: when he was a senator. But to be fair, Biden

101
00:06:25,800 --> 00:06:28,279
Speaker 2: did also have some dementia going on, so you know

102
00:06:28,360 --> 00:06:31,040
Speaker 2: there is we can't say he had dementia. And I

103
00:06:31,080 --> 00:06:31,520
Speaker 2: think this.

104
00:06:31,640 --> 00:06:35,320
Speaker 1: Is important, by the way, after the Trump and Biden

105
00:06:35,640 --> 00:06:40,080
Speaker 1: classified document scandals, if by chance you worked in former

106
00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:43,200
Speaker 1: intelligence and you were like, uh, oh, I've still got

107
00:06:43,200 --> 00:06:46,480
Speaker 1: some of these. You probably burned them or shredded them

108
00:06:46,640 --> 00:06:49,039
Speaker 1: or got ready rid of them if you have a

109
00:06:49,240 --> 00:06:52,120
Speaker 1: remotely functional brain, right. I mean, the idea that you

110
00:06:52,160 --> 00:06:54,279
Speaker 1: would continue to possess those is crazy.

111
00:06:55,160 --> 00:06:57,720
Speaker 2: It's not hard to get rid of them. To keep

112
00:06:57,760 --> 00:06:59,159
Speaker 2: them would be That's what I mean. It would be

113
00:06:59,160 --> 00:07:03,400
Speaker 2: reckless beyond and look, General Petreus got hit on this one,

114
00:07:03,560 --> 00:07:06,920
Speaker 2: four star general and former CIA director. He got hit

115
00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:11,200
Speaker 2: for having classified outside of proper chance, So it does happen.

116
00:07:11,560 --> 00:07:14,120
Speaker 2: There was a CIA director a long time ago, even

117
00:07:14,120 --> 00:07:15,680
Speaker 2: though he's the director, not allowed to just kind of

118
00:07:15,680 --> 00:07:17,560
Speaker 2: have the papers all over his office at home, So

119
00:07:18,800 --> 00:07:22,800
Speaker 2: that's possible. I would think bot In is too clever

120
00:07:22,960 --> 00:07:25,120
Speaker 2: for that, but maybe I'm giving him too much credit.

121
00:07:25,600 --> 00:07:29,360
Speaker 2: The other thing, which is probably the likeliest clay but

122
00:07:29,440 --> 00:07:34,600
Speaker 2: the hardest to prove, is was he feeding information classified

123
00:07:34,600 --> 00:07:39,240
Speaker 2: information to reporters to undermine Trump, who he had just

124
00:07:39,400 --> 00:07:43,400
Speaker 2: been working for as National security advisor. I think that's

125
00:07:43,480 --> 00:07:47,560
Speaker 2: the likeliest, personally, just the likeliest scenario of what the

126
00:07:47,560 --> 00:07:51,520
Speaker 2: investigation is focused on. But look, man, you never want

127
00:07:51,520 --> 00:07:54,960
Speaker 2: those FBI guys and windbreakers come into your house and

128
00:07:55,880 --> 00:07:58,720
Speaker 2: I'm sure we'll get more on this one. And it's

129
00:07:59,480 --> 00:08:02,440
Speaker 2: it's just own you. Cash Battel, the director of the FBI,

130
00:08:02,560 --> 00:08:04,960
Speaker 2: beat it out. No one's above the law. Trump's taking

131
00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:07,000
Speaker 2: that serious or his team is taking that seriously. Trump

132
00:08:07,000 --> 00:08:10,160
Speaker 2: said he has no knowledge of this. Yeah, I don't

133
00:08:10,200 --> 00:08:13,440
Speaker 2: believe that, But I would say President, I'm.

134
00:08:13,280 --> 00:08:16,600
Speaker 1: Saying, yeah, yeah, I would say the same thing if

135
00:08:16,640 --> 00:08:18,560
Speaker 1: I were president of the United States, I'll be like, man,

136
00:08:18,600 --> 00:08:20,680
Speaker 1: you know they got independence. I don't know anything about it,

137
00:08:22,640 --> 00:08:25,080
Speaker 1: but that's exactly what I would say. I do think

138
00:08:25,120 --> 00:08:28,480
Speaker 1: we should play the flashback here. Here is John Bolton.

139
00:08:28,840 --> 00:08:31,520
Speaker 1: For anybody out there that is freaking out. Here is

140
00:08:31,600 --> 00:08:34,760
Speaker 1: John Bolton saying after Trump's home at Mar a Lago

141
00:08:34,920 --> 00:08:38,320
Speaker 1: was rated, Hey, let's just wait and let the process

142
00:08:38,360 --> 00:08:39,800
Speaker 1: play itself out cut five.

143
00:08:39,880 --> 00:08:43,160
Speaker 3: And I don't think he cared about the classification system.

144
00:08:43,200 --> 00:08:47,280
Speaker 3: I don't think he appreciated the sensitivity of this information,

145
00:08:47,640 --> 00:08:51,040
Speaker 3: and he didn't appreciate the sensitivity of how it was

146
00:08:51,080 --> 00:08:54,560
Speaker 3: often acquired, the so called sources and methods. So this

147
00:08:54,640 --> 00:08:57,400
Speaker 3: had been brief to him before I arrived, it was

148
00:08:57,480 --> 00:09:01,079
Speaker 3: repeated frequently. I think it simply had no impact on him.

149
00:09:01,080 --> 00:09:01,440
Speaker 2: Whatever.

150
00:09:01,640 --> 00:09:04,360
Speaker 3: It's very hard to speculate on motive other than that

151
00:09:04,640 --> 00:09:07,400
Speaker 3: he liked cool things. He saw things that he so

152
00:09:07,480 --> 00:09:09,880
Speaker 3: he wanted to take them, and he was pretty much

153
00:09:09,920 --> 00:09:14,800
Speaker 3: able to take them, and not just on classified information matters,

154
00:09:14,800 --> 00:09:18,120
Speaker 3: on all kinds of things that crossed his desk. Some

155
00:09:18,280 --> 00:09:20,040
Speaker 3: days he liked to eat a lot of French fries.

156
00:09:20,120 --> 00:09:22,040
Speaker 3: Some days he took classified documents.

157
00:09:22,120 --> 00:09:22,719
Speaker 2: He wanted them.

158
00:09:22,720 --> 00:09:25,040
Speaker 3: Why did he want them because he could get them?

159
00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:25,680
Speaker 4: Oh?

160
00:09:25,800 --> 00:09:28,760
Speaker 1: Oh, whoa, Maybe he wanted them because he could get them.

161
00:09:29,520 --> 00:09:31,959
Speaker 1: Let me also clarify what I said. I don't know

162
00:09:32,040 --> 00:09:36,160
Speaker 1: that Trump is getting updated on every raid like this.

163
00:09:36,640 --> 00:09:39,360
Speaker 1: I think Trump knows the process which led to these

164
00:09:39,440 --> 00:09:42,600
Speaker 1: raids are going to happen. I would say probably cash

165
00:09:42,600 --> 00:09:46,000
Speaker 1: Ptel doesn't walk in and say, hey, tomorrow morning early,

166
00:09:46,320 --> 00:09:48,240
Speaker 1: we're going to be doing a raid. I'm not sure

167
00:09:48,240 --> 00:09:50,559
Speaker 1: Trump is getting the minute updates like that.

168
00:09:50,880 --> 00:09:53,240
Speaker 2: I don't think. I think on his former National security

169
00:09:53,280 --> 00:09:54,720
Speaker 2: advisor Clay, he probably is.

170
00:09:55,600 --> 00:09:57,960
Speaker 1: Now Maybe I think Clay I think killing him the

171
00:09:58,120 --> 00:10:00,839
Speaker 1: exact moment that they're going to happen, which allows Trump

172
00:10:00,840 --> 00:10:01,959
Speaker 1: to say I didn't know about it.

173
00:10:02,559 --> 00:10:06,040
Speaker 2: I think that Trump, uh, maybe it wasn't in the

174
00:10:06,080 --> 00:10:09,960
Speaker 2: decision making process to do the raid. I think that

175
00:10:10,400 --> 00:10:15,080
Speaker 2: ag Bondi and Cash Pattel probably were handling that. Look,

176
00:10:15,120 --> 00:10:18,360
Speaker 2: this is also we see this with the DOJ and

177
00:10:18,440 --> 00:10:21,400
Speaker 2: with special counsel stuff and all this. They work for

178
00:10:21,440 --> 00:10:23,240
Speaker 2: the president, but there's this belief that they kind of

179
00:10:23,240 --> 00:10:25,720
Speaker 2: don't work for the president. But there's a Chinese wall,

180
00:10:25,760 --> 00:10:28,199
Speaker 2: so to speak, between them and the president. But no,

181
00:10:28,280 --> 00:10:31,920
Speaker 2: not really, you know. So it's a strange place for

182
00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:35,240
Speaker 2: things to be. I have to wonder if this is

183
00:10:35,280 --> 00:10:38,800
Speaker 2: actually going to I have to wonder, you know, what

184
00:10:39,120 --> 00:10:43,160
Speaker 2: the basis for this is, because to do this and

185
00:10:43,360 --> 00:10:45,240
Speaker 2: to have it go nowhere here, by the way, here

186
00:10:45,320 --> 00:10:48,079
Speaker 2: is Trump. Let's hear Trump talking about this. Play cut one,

187
00:10:48,160 --> 00:10:48,640
Speaker 2: go for it.

188
00:10:48,800 --> 00:10:50,440
Speaker 4: No, I don't know about it. I saw it on

189
00:10:50,480 --> 00:10:52,880
Speaker 4: television this morning. I'm not a fan of John Bull.

190
00:10:53,440 --> 00:10:58,440
Speaker 4: He's a real said of a low life. When I

191
00:10:58,520 --> 00:11:00,679
Speaker 4: hired him, he served a good for is because, as

192
00:11:00,720 --> 00:11:02,520
Speaker 4: you know, he was one of the people that forced

193
00:11:02,520 --> 00:11:05,600
Speaker 4: Bush to do the ridiculous bombings in the Middle East,

194
00:11:06,160 --> 00:11:08,400
Speaker 4: the boult he you know, he he wants to always

195
00:11:08,480 --> 00:11:11,520
Speaker 4: kill people and he's very bad at what he does.

196
00:11:11,559 --> 00:11:14,240
Speaker 4: But he worked out great for me, because every time

197
00:11:14,320 --> 00:11:17,640
Speaker 4: he doesn't talk, he's like a very quiet person, except

198
00:11:17,679 --> 00:11:20,520
Speaker 4: on television, who you could say something bad about trumpelways

199
00:11:20,559 --> 00:11:23,240
Speaker 4: do that, but but he really doesn't talk. He's quiet.

200
00:11:23,920 --> 00:11:25,600
Speaker 4: And I'd walk into a room with him with a

201
00:11:25,640 --> 00:11:27,839
Speaker 4: foreign country, and the foreign country would give me everything

202
00:11:27,840 --> 00:11:29,520
Speaker 4: because they said, I don't know, they're gonna get blown

203
00:11:29,559 --> 00:11:33,480
Speaker 4: up because John Bolton is in. He's a not a

204
00:11:33,520 --> 00:11:37,400
Speaker 4: smart guy, but he could be a very unpatriotic. I mean,

205
00:11:37,440 --> 00:11:39,400
Speaker 4: we're gonna find out. I know nothing about it. I

206
00:11:39,720 --> 00:11:41,960
Speaker 4: just saw it this morning. They did a rid Do

207
00:11:41,960 --> 00:11:44,960
Speaker 4: you accept the dug review on this? Yeah, they'll be

208
00:11:45,080 --> 00:11:48,760
Speaker 4: they'll brief probably today sometime, and I don't want to.

209
00:11:48,800 --> 00:11:50,360
Speaker 4: I tell him, and I tell the group I don't

210
00:11:50,360 --> 00:11:51,760
Speaker 4: want to know about just you have to do what

211
00:11:51,800 --> 00:11:53,400
Speaker 4: you have to do. I don't want to know about it.

212
00:11:53,400 --> 00:11:56,079
Speaker 4: It's not necessary. I could know about it. I could

213
00:11:56,200 --> 00:11:58,520
Speaker 4: be the one starting, and I'm actually the chief law

214
00:11:58,559 --> 00:12:03,120
Speaker 4: enforcement officer. But I feel that it's set better this way.

215
00:12:04,640 --> 00:12:07,480
Speaker 1: Let me say this too, Buck, I would say on

216
00:12:07,600 --> 00:12:11,640
Speaker 1: this front, I think Trump may not want to know

217
00:12:11,679 --> 00:12:13,920
Speaker 1: about some of this stuff because he doesn't want to

218
00:12:13,960 --> 00:12:16,440
Speaker 1: be blamed if it gets leaked. You ever been in

219
00:12:16,440 --> 00:12:20,200
Speaker 1: that scenario where you I hate sometimes knowing information that

220
00:12:20,240 --> 00:12:22,400
Speaker 1: I know is not public yet because I'm like, eight

221
00:12:22,440 --> 00:12:24,920
Speaker 1: people know this. If it gets leaked, somebody's going to

222
00:12:24,960 --> 00:12:28,360
Speaker 1: be like, oh, he's the one who talked, right. And

223
00:12:28,440 --> 00:12:31,280
Speaker 1: So I think one thing Trump learned about during his

224
00:12:31,280 --> 00:12:34,319
Speaker 1: first term, in addition to knowing that people like John Bolton,

225
00:12:34,679 --> 00:12:37,080
Speaker 1: who frankly he just didn't have the knowledge to know

226
00:12:37,120 --> 00:12:40,920
Speaker 1: who to surround himself with as staff, I think also

227
00:12:41,120 --> 00:12:44,079
Speaker 1: he learned that a lot of these briefings are being

228
00:12:44,160 --> 00:12:48,360
Speaker 1: done so that they can leak that they briefed the president.

229
00:12:48,640 --> 00:12:51,440
Speaker 1: That makes use to brief the president. But I think

230
00:12:51,440 --> 00:12:54,080
Speaker 1: one of the things that Trump found so frustrating was

231
00:12:54,240 --> 00:12:59,200
Speaker 1: his intelligence agencies would brief him and then twenty minutes later,

232
00:12:59,240 --> 00:13:01,480
Speaker 1: it's a story in the New York Times and he's like, man,

233
00:13:01,520 --> 00:13:04,480
Speaker 1: they set me up on this. Remember our buddy Senator

234
00:13:04,559 --> 00:13:07,240
Speaker 1: Ron Johnson has talked about this. I don't think it's

235
00:13:07,240 --> 00:13:11,559
Speaker 1: gotten enough attention. But he got briefed so the FBI

236
00:13:11,679 --> 00:13:14,760
Speaker 1: could say they briefed him on the Hunter Biden laptop story.

237
00:13:14,800 --> 00:13:16,480
Speaker 2: If I remember correctly.

238
00:13:16,400 --> 00:13:19,760
Speaker 1: They leaked that they had briefed him about the fact

239
00:13:19,800 --> 00:13:23,520
Speaker 1: that Russian disinformation might be going on, so they could

240
00:13:23,559 --> 00:13:26,800
Speaker 1: make it look like he was somehow a target or

241
00:13:26,840 --> 00:13:29,200
Speaker 1: involved in this. And so I think Trump may not

242
00:13:29,480 --> 00:13:33,720
Speaker 1: want those briefings because he just knows that the stories

243
00:13:33,800 --> 00:13:36,440
Speaker 1: come out and they're trying to paint him into a corner.

244
00:13:37,600 --> 00:13:39,400
Speaker 2: There are certain documents you always want to have an

245
00:13:39,480 --> 00:13:43,000

247
00:13:46,040 --> 00:13:50,079
Speaker 2: also a definite must have if you haven't created one yet.

248
00:13:50,120 --> 00:13:53,000

264
00:14:40,080 --> 00:14:42,080
Speaker 1: Let's go ahead and talk economy here for a minute,

265
00:14:42,120 --> 00:14:45,680
Speaker 1: because I know this impacts you guys a lot. Stock

266
00:14:45,760 --> 00:14:50,200
Speaker 1: market is setting another all time high today. That is,

267
00:14:50,280 --> 00:14:52,600
Speaker 1: if you have a four to oh one k, if

268
00:14:52,640 --> 00:14:56,760
Speaker 1: you have a retirement account. It wasn't very long ago

269
00:14:56,800 --> 00:15:00,680
Speaker 1: that there was a full fledged panic out there in

270
00:15:00,760 --> 00:15:03,560
Speaker 1: the financial markets. In fact, it was in April, and

271
00:15:03,760 --> 00:15:06,240
Speaker 1: we said on this program, hey, keep your head down,

272
00:15:07,080 --> 00:15:10,640
Speaker 1: hold onto your stocks. If you did, you're in great place.

273
00:15:11,080 --> 00:15:13,600
Speaker 1: If you had money on the sideline, as we said,

274
00:15:13,600 --> 00:15:16,440
Speaker 1: it was a good time to buy. You now have

275
00:15:16,600 --> 00:15:20,640
Speaker 1: made since April. This is pretty extraordinary thirty percent return.

276
00:15:21,360 --> 00:15:24,720
Speaker 1: That's about as much as you statistically would make in

277
00:15:24,760 --> 00:15:28,200
Speaker 1: a three or four year window. So if you bought

278
00:15:28,240 --> 00:15:32,120
Speaker 1: the dip, you are now up over thirty percent again,

279
00:15:32,160 --> 00:15:34,280
Speaker 1: if you had dry powder, if you had money sitting

280
00:15:34,280 --> 00:15:39,040
Speaker 1: on the sidelines, new record highs. Pretty much every stock

281
00:15:39,280 --> 00:15:43,200
Speaker 1: is surging right now and that's happening today because, and

282
00:15:43,320 --> 00:15:46,840
Speaker 1: this is significant, Jerome Powell, who is I believe, out

283
00:15:46,880 --> 00:15:51,160
Speaker 1: in Jackson Hole, Wyoming for a yearly summer event there

284
00:15:52,480 --> 00:15:56,120
Speaker 1: he said basically, Yeah, we're going to have a rate

285
00:15:56,240 --> 00:16:00,480
Speaker 1: cut in September. That would mean your mortgages would be cheaper.

286
00:16:00,520 --> 00:16:03,080
Speaker 1: If you're thinking about buying a home, that would mean

287
00:16:03,160 --> 00:16:09,640
Speaker 1: your rates on credit card, your rates on cars, whatever

288
00:16:09,840 --> 00:16:14,000
Speaker 1: you are borrowing, that would theoretically make a big difference

289
00:16:14,040 --> 00:16:17,960
Speaker 1: for you. Trump has been right about inflation not surging

290
00:16:18,160 --> 00:16:20,560
Speaker 1: and the fact that it's time for rate cuts. And

291
00:16:20,640 --> 00:16:26,400
Speaker 1: here is Jerome Powell basically acknowledging that this morning in Wyoming,

292
00:16:26,480 --> 00:16:27,080
Speaker 1: cut tin.

293
00:16:27,200 --> 00:16:30,120
Speaker 6: Our policy rate is now one hundred basis points closer

294
00:16:30,160 --> 00:16:33,280
Speaker 6: to neutral than it was a year ago, and the

295
00:16:33,320 --> 00:16:36,680
Speaker 6: stability of the unemployment rate and other labor market measures

296
00:16:36,880 --> 00:16:40,360
Speaker 6: allows us to proceed carefully as we consider changes to

297
00:16:40,400 --> 00:16:45,160
Speaker 6: our policy stance. Nonetheless, with policy and restrictive territory, the

298
00:16:45,200 --> 00:16:49,000
Speaker 6: baseline outlook and the shifting balance of risks may warrant

299
00:16:49,160 --> 00:16:50,760
Speaker 6: adjusting our policy stance.

300
00:16:51,920 --> 00:16:54,680
Speaker 1: That is a lot of gobbly good for many of

301
00:16:54,720 --> 00:16:59,960
Speaker 1: you out there, but it is basically acknowledging that hey

302
00:17:00,120 --> 00:17:02,640
Speaker 1: there's going to be a rate cut, and let me

303
00:17:02,840 --> 00:17:08,960
Speaker 1: pull up the actual the actual projections out there on

304
00:17:09,200 --> 00:17:12,440
Speaker 1: the gambling markets. They do a really good job generally

305
00:17:12,480 --> 00:17:18,400
Speaker 1: speaking of forecasting this, and there now is a basically

306
00:17:18,520 --> 00:17:21,560
Speaker 1: ninety percent chance that you're going to see a rate

307
00:17:21,640 --> 00:17:26,879
Speaker 1: cut on September seventeenth. So that would then mean again

308
00:17:27,480 --> 00:17:30,400
Speaker 1: lower borrowing costs for many of us out there who

309
00:17:30,440 --> 00:17:34,400
Speaker 1: own homes, thinking about buying homes, if you're taking out

310
00:17:34,440 --> 00:17:37,639
Speaker 1: an interest rate on buying a car, or your credit

311
00:17:37,680 --> 00:17:41,879
Speaker 1: card rates whatever they are, looks like a quarter point decrease,

312
00:17:42,000 --> 00:17:46,800
Speaker 1: although there's a possibility of a fifty basis point decrease.

313
00:17:46,960 --> 00:17:49,600
Speaker 2: So that is the expectation.

314
00:17:49,880 --> 00:17:53,840
Speaker 1: Also an expectation that there may be rate cuts in

315
00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:55,760
Speaker 1: October as well.

316
00:17:56,760 --> 00:17:57,920
Speaker 2: So that is.

317
00:17:57,960 --> 00:18:01,919
Speaker 1: An economic outlook for you, you, and that is what is

318
00:18:01,960 --> 00:18:07,360
Speaker 1: propelling stocks to record highs across the board. Here yet

319
00:18:07,440 --> 00:18:13,159
Speaker 1: another thing buck the experts, experts in quotation marks. I

320
00:18:13,160 --> 00:18:16,040
Speaker 1: feel like I need to say that got wrong because

321
00:18:16,040 --> 00:18:18,760
Speaker 1: they had a lot of people panicking in April, and

322
00:18:19,080 --> 00:18:22,240
Speaker 1: I bet sadly, you know you know out there are panicked.

323
00:18:22,840 --> 00:18:25,960
Speaker 2: You know, he didn't panic, and his suspenders and his

324
00:18:26,080 --> 00:18:30,240
Speaker 2: French cuff with his monogram. Uh are, I'm trying to

325
00:18:30,240 --> 00:18:33,359
Speaker 2: remember your actual name. Richard Clay traw R. Richard Travis,

326
00:18:33,680 --> 00:18:37,760
Speaker 2: Richard Clay Travis. Clay Travis didn't panic. I didn't pan either,

327
00:18:37,800 --> 00:18:40,479
Speaker 2: but Clay didn't panic. He was like, stay with it,

328
00:18:40,600 --> 00:18:43,879
Speaker 2: stay with it, and it was good advice. Trump said,

329
00:18:44,080 --> 00:18:46,040
Speaker 2: I mean, I'd never heard this. You were the president's

330
00:18:46,200 --> 00:18:48,159
Speaker 2: Was it was it Trump? Or who wasn't? No, might

331
00:18:48,200 --> 00:18:49,240
Speaker 2: have been one of his I think it might have

332
00:18:49,280 --> 00:18:51,720
Speaker 2: been the president one of his top advisors basically said,

333
00:18:51,720 --> 00:18:54,880
Speaker 2: Tesla's on sale. Buy it. You never hear somebody that's

334
00:18:54,920 --> 00:18:57,560
Speaker 2: in your government. By the way, Tesla was on sale.

335
00:18:57,920 --> 00:19:02,679
Speaker 1: He also said, don't be a pain anakin, meaning again,

336
00:19:03,320 --> 00:19:06,920
Speaker 1: I know, because there's so much noise every day, it's

337
00:19:07,040 --> 00:19:10,000
Speaker 1: easy to get fired up. This is my public address

338
00:19:10,000 --> 00:19:12,919
Speaker 1: announcement for the day. You're gonna make about nine percent

339
00:19:12,960 --> 00:19:16,760
Speaker 1: a year if you buy index funds and you hold

340
00:19:16,800 --> 00:19:19,359
Speaker 1: on to them. Now, that doesn't mean you're gonna make

341
00:19:19,440 --> 00:19:23,320
Speaker 1: nine percent every year. You need to have a horizon five, ten, fifteen,

342
00:19:23,440 --> 00:19:30,119
Speaker 1: twenty years. Overwhelmingly, this is the truth. When you try

343
00:19:30,160 --> 00:19:35,639
Speaker 1: and time the market, you tend to sell LOOE and

344
00:19:35,760 --> 00:19:40,119
Speaker 1: buy high. That's an average person out there. And so

345
00:19:40,800 --> 00:19:43,760
Speaker 1: when you get like that frenzy, that drum beat. What

346
00:19:43,880 --> 00:19:45,800
Speaker 1: is the great line I'm going to paraphrase it for

347
00:19:45,960 --> 00:19:51,920
Speaker 1: Warren Buffett be be Oh, I'm not even gonna say it. Well,

348
00:19:51,920 --> 00:19:53,320
Speaker 1: I'm going to look up the quote because I want

349
00:19:53,320 --> 00:19:57,639
Speaker 1: to make sure be greedy when others are, when others

350
00:19:57,720 --> 00:20:02,000
Speaker 1: are scared, and scared when other are greedy. Basically is

351
00:20:02,040 --> 00:20:06,600
Speaker 1: his investing maxim and guys the greatest investor in the

352
00:20:06,640 --> 00:20:09,600
Speaker 1: history of the United States. So when everybody else is

353
00:20:09,640 --> 00:20:14,600
Speaker 1: screaming buy, be nervous, when everybody else is screaming sell,

354
00:20:14,920 --> 00:20:17,480
Speaker 1: it's the best possible time to go by. That's a

355
00:20:17,600 --> 00:20:21,560
Speaker 1: general contrarian index, but it tends to be true. And

356
00:20:22,200 --> 00:20:26,560
Speaker 1: I think in general what this means is the housing market.

357
00:20:26,680 --> 00:20:28,720
Speaker 2: Hopefully, my biggest hope.

358
00:20:28,480 --> 00:20:31,840
Speaker 1: Is that by next year we have unfrozen that housing

359
00:20:31,960 --> 00:20:34,679
Speaker 1: market and those of you out there that got seven

360
00:20:34,760 --> 00:20:38,560
Speaker 1: percent mortgages are able to refi back into the five

361
00:20:38,640 --> 00:20:41,440
Speaker 1: percent range, and some of you out there with two

362
00:20:41,480 --> 00:20:45,840
Speaker 1: and three percent mortgages, with mortgages back around five you're

363
00:20:45,880 --> 00:20:48,640
Speaker 1: willing to make that shift. Maybe you put your house

364
00:20:48,680 --> 00:20:51,240
Speaker 1: on the market, Maybe a move to a new neighborhood

365
00:20:51,240 --> 00:20:54,320
Speaker 1: because you've got kids that are school age, or your

366
00:20:54,400 --> 00:20:57,199
Speaker 1: kids have left for college and you're moving back to

367
00:20:57,280 --> 00:21:00,920
Speaker 1: a smaller home. We just need to unfreeze the tire pipes,

368
00:21:00,960 --> 00:21:03,679
Speaker 1: for lack of a better way, of the housing market,

369
00:21:03,760 --> 00:21:06,520
Speaker 1: because I think that will unlock a lot of growth

370
00:21:06,640 --> 00:21:08,359
Speaker 1: in our national economy.

371
00:21:08,960 --> 00:21:11,240
Speaker 2: You know, we had that conversation older this week about

372
00:21:11,240 --> 00:21:13,919
Speaker 2: how so much of what you want in life is

373
00:21:14,080 --> 00:21:16,679
Speaker 2: entirely attainable if you just do the things you know

374
00:21:16,800 --> 00:21:19,040
Speaker 2: you should do that are not easy to do, but

375
00:21:19,160 --> 00:21:21,880
Speaker 2: you know you should do them. It applies to certainly

376
00:21:22,720 --> 00:21:25,560
Speaker 2: you know your health and fitness. Like last night, I

377
00:21:25,640 --> 00:21:31,960
Speaker 2: discovered that the Jenny's gooey buttercake ice cream in the

378
00:21:31,960 --> 00:21:34,960
Speaker 2: freezer was in fact gluten free. This was not good

379
00:21:35,040 --> 00:21:36,639
Speaker 2: knowledge for me to have, Clay.

380
00:21:36,480 --> 00:21:39,399
Speaker 1: I was not. It's funny you mentioned this because I

381
00:21:39,440 --> 00:21:42,480
Speaker 1: had my sons at the Atlanta Braves, you know, to

382
00:21:42,560 --> 00:21:46,000
Speaker 1: go watch games a few weeks ago, right before school started.

383
00:21:47,000 --> 00:21:50,880
Speaker 1: I had this exact flavor of Jenny's ice cream. They

384
00:21:50,920 --> 00:21:54,080
Speaker 1: have a Jenny's ice cream right by the Atlanta Braves stadium,

385
00:21:54,240 --> 00:21:55,800
Speaker 1: and I gotta.

386
00:21:55,560 --> 00:21:59,439
Speaker 2: Tell you it is unbelievable. He it's shockingly good. It's like,

387
00:21:59,480 --> 00:22:01,959
Speaker 2: what do they in this? I can't stop eating it

388
00:22:02,280 --> 00:22:03,800
Speaker 2: and I don't even want to look at it afters Look,

389
00:22:03,920 --> 00:22:06,440
Speaker 2: you know, last night I went off plan, as I said,

390
00:22:06,440 --> 00:22:08,000
Speaker 2: It's what I tell my wife. I tell Carrius at

391
00:22:08,000 --> 00:22:09,000
Speaker 2: a honey, I went off plan.

392
00:22:09,280 --> 00:22:11,720
Speaker 1: Is ice cream your thing you eat and you just

393
00:22:11,920 --> 00:22:15,280
Speaker 1: can't say no to it because it's not necessarily mine? Like,

394
00:22:15,320 --> 00:22:17,560
Speaker 1: what is your guilty sin when it comes to food

395
00:22:17,560 --> 00:22:19,600
Speaker 1: where you're just like I just couldn't stop eating it.

396
00:22:20,440 --> 00:22:24,840
Speaker 2: Chocolate, cheese, and ice cream, which is a deadly triad.

397
00:22:24,960 --> 00:22:27,720
Speaker 1: Let me tell us a tough trio. Yeah, yeah, I'll

398
00:22:27,760 --> 00:22:30,760
Speaker 1: tell you why I can't. Like I went last night

399
00:22:30,840 --> 00:22:34,520
Speaker 1: my son played his first football game of the season

400
00:22:34,560 --> 00:22:36,880
Speaker 1: and they played ninth grade football. So we kicked off

401
00:22:36,880 --> 00:22:39,439
Speaker 1: here in Tennessee for his school, and then we went

402
00:22:39,480 --> 00:22:41,360
Speaker 1: to dinner after the game. We went to go get

403
00:22:41,400 --> 00:22:44,919
Speaker 1: Mexican food. I don't think I can stop eating chips

404
00:22:44,920 --> 00:22:49,280
Speaker 1: and salsa. I don't know how much chips in Salta

405
00:22:49,359 --> 00:22:51,040
Speaker 1: I would have to eat for me to be like

406
00:22:51,119 --> 00:22:54,040
Speaker 1: you know what I've I can't take another chip, don't

407
00:22:54,400 --> 00:22:56,840
Speaker 1: I don't think it's possible to fill up on chips

408
00:22:56,880 --> 00:22:57,359
Speaker 1: and salsa.

409
00:22:57,760 --> 00:23:01,920
Speaker 2: Like I love Mexican food. I'm not a controversial take

410
00:23:01,920 --> 00:23:05,320
Speaker 2: a lot of us do. Guacamole's a meal, everybody. This

411
00:23:05,359 --> 00:23:07,959
Speaker 2: is the problem with it. It's delicious, it's amazing, but this

412
00:23:08,000 --> 00:23:09,480
Speaker 2: thing of like, oh, I'm just gonna have like a

413
00:23:09,480 --> 00:23:13,600
Speaker 2: big bowl of guacamole before my meal. Unfortunately, guacamole is

414
00:23:13,640 --> 00:23:17,119
Speaker 2: like green ice cream. It is really calorie dense.

415
00:23:18,560 --> 00:23:22,439
Speaker 1: I just sat there and look, I can't say no.

416
00:23:23,000 --> 00:23:26,280
Speaker 1: I mean, that is my flaw. I also like, I

417
00:23:26,320 --> 00:23:27,800
Speaker 1: don't even know if this is a combo that a

418
00:23:27,800 --> 00:23:30,239
Speaker 1: lot of other people are into, but I can avoid it.

419
00:23:30,280 --> 00:23:33,439
Speaker 1: More So, peanut butter and crackers is one of the

420
00:23:33,440 --> 00:23:37,560
Speaker 1: greatest combos in the history of mankind. Peanut butters and

421
00:23:37,680 --> 00:23:40,119
Speaker 1: Graham crackers. If you like the gram, I'd probably just

422
00:23:40,119 --> 00:23:42,680
Speaker 1: made everybody fat. Now that's a combo. That's one of

423
00:23:42,720 --> 00:23:46,000
Speaker 1: the greatest combos to ever exist. But I feel like

424
00:23:46,040 --> 00:23:48,280
Speaker 1: I can eat those all day too. But the chips

425
00:23:48,320 --> 00:23:51,119
Speaker 1: and salta combo. I bet I ate ten pounds of

426
00:23:51,200 --> 00:23:54,000
Speaker 1: chips and salcea last night. I never don't have to

427
00:23:54,040 --> 00:23:58,040
Speaker 1: get multiple refills on the chips bowl, and usually it's

428
00:23:58,080 --> 00:24:00,040
Speaker 1: not my wife and my kids that are pounding it

429
00:24:00,160 --> 00:24:00,920
Speaker 1: fat dad here.

430
00:24:01,560 --> 00:24:04,119
Speaker 2: So so what I was saying, though, is that, yes, okay,

431
00:24:04,160 --> 00:24:06,280
Speaker 2: that's funny that you had that flavor of Jenny's ice cream.

432
00:24:06,600 --> 00:24:08,040
Speaker 2: I was so good. I don't know, it was like

433
00:24:08,280 --> 00:24:10,280
Speaker 2: it was one of the Honestly, I would throw pistachio

434
00:24:10,359 --> 00:24:12,800
Speaker 2: under the bus for that Jenny's ice cream. I would

435
00:24:12,840 --> 00:24:18,520
Speaker 2: push pistachio ice cream under the waves and pull that

436
00:24:18,600 --> 00:24:20,840
Speaker 2: Jenny's ice cream up into the rowboat with me if

437
00:24:20,840 --> 00:24:21,280
Speaker 2: I had to.

438
00:24:22,119 --> 00:24:24,919
Speaker 1: You are getting called out by producer Greg because this

439
00:24:24,960 --> 00:24:28,119
Speaker 1: stuff is evidently very expensive, the Jenny's ice cream, But

440
00:24:28,160 --> 00:24:28,960
Speaker 1: it is so good.

441
00:24:29,359 --> 00:24:31,360
Speaker 2: It is so I look, producer Greg, you know what

442
00:24:31,440 --> 00:24:33,480
Speaker 2: I can. If I have to eat my Jenny's ice

443
00:24:33,520 --> 00:24:35,560
Speaker 2: cream with a top hat and a monocle on, I'll

444
00:24:35,560 --> 00:24:37,360
Speaker 2: do it. I don't know what to tell you. If

445
00:24:37,359 --> 00:24:42,000
Speaker 2: the butlers say it Nancy Pelosi taste when it comes

446
00:24:42,000 --> 00:24:44,320
Speaker 2: to ice cream here, I didn't know it was this expensive,

447
00:24:44,400 --> 00:24:47,720
Speaker 2: twelve dollars twelve dollars a pint. So the Pelosi reference

448
00:24:47,720 --> 00:24:50,480
Speaker 2: I remember this well was when Pelosi was doing her

449
00:24:50,520 --> 00:24:53,720
Speaker 2: like it's okay that everyone's locked at home, you can't

450
00:24:53,720 --> 00:24:56,520
Speaker 2: go out during COVID, but you have all she opened

451
00:24:56,760 --> 00:24:59,440
Speaker 2: I think it was like a fifteen thousand dollars Viking

452
00:25:00,040 --> 00:25:03,440
Speaker 2: freezer unit. Okay, the one of the most expensive freezer

453
00:25:03,480 --> 00:25:05,159
Speaker 2: even knows you could possibly have, like more than a

454
00:25:05,200 --> 00:25:08,880
Speaker 2: lot of people's cars, and then opened a giant freezer

455
00:25:08,960 --> 00:25:13,720
Speaker 2: drawer with like ten pints of twelve or fifteen dollars

456
00:25:13,800 --> 00:25:16,000
Speaker 2: Jenny's ice cream in it, and she was like, it's

457
00:25:16,040 --> 00:25:18,399
Speaker 2: not that bad during COVID, and everyone's like, you know,

458
00:25:18,440 --> 00:25:21,560
Speaker 2: everyone's completely freaking out. So that's why it's the Pelosi.

459
00:25:22,200 --> 00:25:24,480
Speaker 2: It's the Pelosi ice cream. It is on this one.

460
00:25:24,520 --> 00:25:28,080
Speaker 2: You're right, it's so good. Yeah. So what I was

461
00:25:28,080 --> 00:25:30,280
Speaker 2: saying though about on the financial side of it is

462
00:25:30,400 --> 00:25:31,920
Speaker 2: it think of it a little bit like ice cream

463
00:25:31,960 --> 00:25:33,639
Speaker 2: or a little bit like you know, eating healthy food.

464
00:25:34,760 --> 00:25:38,119
Speaker 2: You know what works. The Clays speaks to you on

465
00:25:38,119 --> 00:25:41,760
Speaker 2: this all the time, and you know what the if

466
00:25:41,760 --> 00:25:45,679
Speaker 2: you look at the vast majority of people, over ninety

467
00:25:45,680 --> 00:25:49,199
Speaker 2: percent of people just being disciplined and putting money in

468
00:25:49,240 --> 00:25:52,320
Speaker 2: the market and not touching it until you really need it,

469
00:25:52,359 --> 00:25:54,639
Speaker 2: and hopefully you don't need it for ten fifteen twenty years.

470
00:25:55,240 --> 00:25:58,679
Speaker 2: That is the pathway to success. It's like eating a

471
00:25:59,160 --> 00:26:02,360
Speaker 2: you know, a mixed and very diet of whole foods

472
00:26:02,720 --> 00:26:04,800
Speaker 2: of something that either comes from the earth or had

473
00:26:04,840 --> 00:26:06,240
Speaker 2: a mom and dad. So that's kind of a weird

474
00:26:06,280 --> 00:26:09,080
Speaker 2: way to put it, but it's true. You know, you

475
00:26:09,119 --> 00:26:11,600
Speaker 2: either want to eat an animal or something that grows,

476
00:26:12,160 --> 00:26:14,760
Speaker 2: and that's, for the most part, the way to do it.

477
00:26:15,320 --> 00:26:17,679
Speaker 2: And if you do it, good things happen. Right. So

478
00:26:17,760 --> 00:26:20,080
Speaker 2: it's like that with finance, because you try to pick

479
00:26:20,119 --> 00:26:21,840
Speaker 2: stocks and you think you're going to be Gordon the

480
00:26:21,880 --> 00:26:24,440
Speaker 2: second coming of Gordon Gecko. You got to remember Gordon

481
00:26:24,480 --> 00:26:27,720
Speaker 2: Gecko was cheating and went to prison in the movie,

482
00:26:27,800 --> 00:26:29,080
Speaker 2: So you don't want to do that.

483
00:26:30,359 --> 00:26:33,000
Speaker 1: Most people who beat the market are cheating because it's

484
00:26:33,080 --> 00:26:35,760
Speaker 1: really really hard to beat the market. And usually in

485
00:26:35,840 --> 00:26:38,040
Speaker 1: order to beat the market, you have to have information

486
00:26:38,440 --> 00:26:40,520
Speaker 1: that the rest of the market does not have, which

487
00:26:40,560 --> 00:26:44,000
Speaker 1: allows you to value the market prices better than other

488
00:26:44,040 --> 00:26:47,199
Speaker 1: people would, at least historically over time, it's hard to do.

489
00:26:47,480 --> 00:26:50,359
Speaker 1: Some people like Warren Buffett brilliant able to do it.

490
00:26:51,320 --> 00:26:53,280
Speaker 2: Now this is going to be a bit of a term,

491
00:26:53,280 --> 00:26:55,360
Speaker 2: but I think it's so important we have to get

492
00:26:55,359 --> 00:26:58,359
Speaker 2: into it, and that is the conversation about how to

493
00:26:58,400 --> 00:27:02,639
Speaker 2: save children to be from abortions, little babies in the womb,

494
00:27:02,640 --> 00:27:04,720
Speaker 2: to bring them into this world, to save them from abortion.

495
00:27:04,840 --> 00:27:07,560
Speaker 2: What can we do right now? So many states have abortion.

496
00:27:07,640 --> 00:27:10,840
Speaker 2: As you know, abortions actually went up went up nationally

497
00:27:10,960 --> 00:27:13,639
Speaker 2: after Roe v Way was overturned. So it's a question

498
00:27:13,880 --> 00:27:18,040
Speaker 2: of giving moms better options and help and support and love.

499
00:27:18,560 --> 00:27:22,560
Speaker 2: And that's where Preborn comes in. The Preborn clinics are

500
00:27:22,600 --> 00:27:25,160
Speaker 2: out there all over the country and they've been doing

501
00:27:25,160 --> 00:27:28,480
Speaker 2: this for decades and they are giving moms love, support,

502
00:27:28,720 --> 00:27:32,840
Speaker 2: care assistance. And they started out with a free ultrasound

503
00:27:33,240 --> 00:27:36,159
Speaker 2: because they know that when that mother to be meets

504
00:27:36,240 --> 00:27:39,000
Speaker 2: the tiny baby growing in her womb, sees the heartbeat

505
00:27:39,280 --> 00:27:43,080
Speaker 2: and has a conversation about how this is going to

506
00:27:43,119 --> 00:27:47,640
Speaker 2: be an incredible decision for her of life and then

507
00:27:47,720 --> 00:27:50,320
Speaker 2: she's gonna have a little boy or girl. It's saving

508
00:27:50,359 --> 00:27:52,800
Speaker 2: lives every day. That's where Preborn is doing. Three hundred

509
00:27:52,840 --> 00:27:55,200
Speaker 2: and fifty thousand babies have been saved through this life

510
00:27:55,240 --> 00:27:58,160
Speaker 2: giving work and so many mothers have an entirely new

511
00:27:58,160 --> 00:28:00,920
Speaker 2: outlook and have love in their hearts. Because of the

512
00:28:00,960 --> 00:28:03,360
Speaker 2: help that they got from Preborn and the amazing little

513
00:28:03,400 --> 00:28:05,920
Speaker 2: boy or girl that they brought into this world. This

514
00:28:05,960 --> 00:28:08,119
Speaker 2: is happening every day, but they need your support. They

515
00:28:08,160 --> 00:28:11,399
Speaker 2: don't get a dollar from the government, and they're competing

516
00:28:11,520 --> 00:28:15,760
Speaker 2: against the abortion industrial complex, which is so well funded

517
00:28:15,800 --> 00:28:19,439
Speaker 2: and has had so much government money it's crazy. So

518
00:28:19,560 --> 00:28:21,880
Speaker 2: help save babies right now. You can do it yourself.

519
00:28:22,400 --> 00:28:25,760
Speaker 2: Dial pound two five zero and say the keyword baby.

520
00:28:26,080 --> 00:28:28,639
Speaker 2: That's pound two five zero, say baby. Or go to

526
00:28:44,760 --> 00:28:46,800
Speaker 2: All right, welcome back in here to Clay and Buck.

527
00:28:47,120 --> 00:28:50,360
Speaker 2: We just had the President Trump presser from the Oval Office,

528
00:28:50,680 --> 00:28:53,600
Speaker 2: and we had some very interesting takeaways from that. First off,

529
00:28:53,760 --> 00:28:56,320
Speaker 2: for those of you who are soccer fans, if you're

530
00:28:56,320 --> 00:29:01,440
Speaker 2: in Europe football, it's gonna be huge for the US.

531
00:29:01,720 --> 00:29:03,280
Speaker 2: Put us out by the ALEC soccer or not. And

532
00:29:03,600 --> 00:29:05,680
Speaker 2: Clay honed in on this one a few moments ago.

533
00:29:06,400 --> 00:29:12,200
Speaker 2: It's such a big draw for businesses, for money for visitors,

534
00:29:12,280 --> 00:29:16,720
Speaker 2: for tourism, for all of that. And it's a good

535
00:29:16,720 --> 00:29:18,160
Speaker 2: look for America. You know, I'll tell you this. I'm

536
00:29:18,200 --> 00:29:21,200
Speaker 2: sure a lot of you have the same thing I get.

537
00:29:21,800 --> 00:29:23,160
Speaker 2: And I think this is a good thing, and I

538
00:29:23,160 --> 00:29:25,920
Speaker 2: think everybody should feel this way. What if I read

539
00:29:26,080 --> 00:29:31,360
Speaker 2: that something bad happens to a tourist in my hometown.

540
00:29:31,600 --> 00:29:34,720
Speaker 2: It ticks me off, you know, it really does, because

541
00:29:34,760 --> 00:29:36,240
Speaker 2: I want and now that was true when I lived

542
00:29:36,240 --> 00:29:38,800
Speaker 2: in New York. It's true when I live in Miami now.

543
00:29:40,120 --> 00:29:44,360
Speaker 2: So we want to be able to showcase the greatness

544
00:29:44,400 --> 00:29:46,320
Speaker 2: of American and America cities to the rest of the world.

545
00:29:46,320 --> 00:29:47,880
Speaker 2: It's a pride thing, and I think that's a good

546
00:29:47,880 --> 00:29:49,720
Speaker 2: thing for us to have, right I mean, Clay, someone

547
00:29:49,760 --> 00:29:53,440
Speaker 2: goes to Nashville, they're visiting from Japan or Germany or

548
00:29:53,680 --> 00:29:56,280
Speaker 2: Brazil or wherever. You know. You just I think as

549
00:29:56,320 --> 00:29:59,120
Speaker 2: a resident, you always want visitors to have a good

550
00:29:59,160 --> 00:30:02,600
Speaker 2: You want tourists putting dollars into that economy and supporting hotels,

551
00:30:02,640 --> 00:30:03,760
Speaker 2: and you know, you just want them to have a

552
00:30:03,800 --> 00:30:08,040
Speaker 2: good experience. And that brings me to Trump and how

553
00:30:08,080 --> 00:30:12,240
Speaker 2: this is all time together. You'll notice something he taught

554
00:30:12,280 --> 00:30:14,200
Speaker 2: was talking about FIFA, and I know a lot of

555
00:30:14,200 --> 00:30:16,120
Speaker 2: you are like ass soccer or whatever. Just stay with

556
00:30:16,160 --> 00:30:18,680
Speaker 2: me on this. Okay, he's talking about the soccer stuff,

557
00:30:18,680 --> 00:30:21,960
Speaker 2: but he's also talking about d C. Well, it turns

558
00:30:22,040 --> 00:30:26,240
Speaker 2: out there's some method to the madness, if you will.

559
00:30:26,280 --> 00:30:29,560
Speaker 2: On this one. Trump isn't just gonna do this in

560
00:30:29,720 --> 00:30:32,360
Speaker 2: d C. We got next year the World Cup. They're

561
00:30:32,360 --> 00:30:34,120
Speaker 2: gonna be playing in a lot of these cities. He

562
00:30:34,280 --> 00:30:38,280
Speaker 2: mentioned that, you know, this is DC. Restaurants have closed

563
00:30:38,280 --> 00:30:40,840
Speaker 2: and I have a friend who owned restaurants in DC.

564
00:30:41,000 --> 00:30:42,760
Speaker 2: He had to close them because the neighborhood was too

565
00:30:42,840 --> 00:30:45,320
Speaker 2: dangerous and people weren't moving in the levels that they

566
00:30:45,320 --> 00:30:47,520
Speaker 2: had thought, and it was just too difficult, you know,

567
00:30:47,560 --> 00:30:49,600
Speaker 2: they had to deal with too much. So this is

568
00:30:49,640 --> 00:30:53,120
Speaker 2: that's real, I know from someone firsthand, because he went

569
00:30:53,160 --> 00:30:55,600
Speaker 2: into a transitioning area, you know, tried to do that

570
00:30:55,720 --> 00:30:57,720
Speaker 2: urban pioneer thing where you going to an area where

571
00:30:57,680 --> 00:30:59,880
Speaker 2: I think it's gonna be better. Didn't work. Trump is

572
00:31:00,040 --> 00:31:02,400
Speaker 2: cleaning these places up. He's starting with DC and Clay

573
00:31:02,440 --> 00:31:05,880
Speaker 2: here he is cut thirty. He says Chicago is next

574
00:31:05,920 --> 00:31:06,719
Speaker 2: on the list. Play it.

575
00:31:07,000 --> 00:31:07,680
Speaker 4: After we do.

576
00:31:07,680 --> 00:31:10,960
Speaker 7: This, we'll go to another location and we'll make it safe.

577
00:31:11,000 --> 00:31:12,840
Speaker 7: All so, we're going to make our country very safe.

578
00:31:12,880 --> 00:31:14,880
Speaker 7: We're going to make our cities very very safe.

579
00:31:15,080 --> 00:31:16,040
Speaker 2: Chicago's a mess.

580
00:31:16,080 --> 00:31:20,000
Speaker 7: You have an incompetent mayor grossly incompetent, and we'll straighten

581
00:31:20,000 --> 00:31:22,120
Speaker 7: that one out probably next. That'll be our next one

582
00:31:22,160 --> 00:31:24,920
Speaker 7: after this, and it won't even be tough. And the

583
00:31:24,920 --> 00:31:29,320
Speaker 7: people in Chicago vis Vice President are screaming for us

584
00:31:29,320 --> 00:31:29,920
Speaker 7: to come there.

585
00:31:30,040 --> 00:31:31,480
Speaker 2: They're wearing red hats just.

586
00:31:31,440 --> 00:31:35,800
Speaker 7: Like this one, but they're wearing red hats. African American ladies,

587
00:31:36,080 --> 00:31:39,640
Speaker 7: beautiful ladies, are saying, please, President Trump, come to Chicago.

588
00:31:40,040 --> 00:31:40,400
Speaker 2: Please.

589
00:31:40,760 --> 00:31:42,640
Speaker 7: I did great with the black vote, as you know,

590
00:31:43,120 --> 00:31:46,000
Speaker 7: and they want something to happen. So I think Chicago

591
00:31:46,120 --> 00:31:47,960
Speaker 7: will be our next, and then we'll help.

592
00:31:47,960 --> 00:31:50,880
Speaker 2: With New York and we're going to help with us.

593
00:31:50,960 --> 00:31:52,400
Speaker 2: And I think, really, I think a.

594
00:31:52,320 --> 00:31:54,640
Speaker 7: Lot of and a lot of these people that you

595
00:31:54,680 --> 00:31:57,800
Speaker 7: see on television, they are including the people in this audience.

596
00:31:57,840 --> 00:31:59,720
Speaker 7: They'll say band things about me and then.

597
00:31:59,640 --> 00:32:05,880
Speaker 2: They'll say true, Clay and I love this move, especially

598
00:32:05,920 --> 00:32:08,280
Speaker 2: if the DC numbers continue to trend in the right direction.

599
00:32:08,960 --> 00:32:13,160
Speaker 1: I think it's transformative. And I said this, and this

600
00:32:13,200 --> 00:32:16,000
Speaker 1: is what I got ripped for. I said, if it

601
00:32:16,080 --> 00:32:19,760
Speaker 1: works in DC, we should see this expand to other

602
00:32:19,880 --> 00:32:22,720
Speaker 1: cities around the country. And look, if I were governor

603
00:32:22,800 --> 00:32:26,600
Speaker 1: right now of Tennessee, don't have to worry about that Tennesseeans.

604
00:32:26,920 --> 00:32:29,400
Speaker 1: But if I were, and I like Bill Lee a lot,

605
00:32:29,480 --> 00:32:32,080
Speaker 1: and I know we've got a governor's race coming up,

606
00:32:32,840 --> 00:32:37,040
Speaker 1: I would be looking at what's happening in DC and

607
00:32:37,080 --> 00:32:41,000
Speaker 1: thinking to myself, what if I deployed the Tennessee National

608
00:32:41,040 --> 00:32:45,520
Speaker 1: Guard in Memphis? What if I gave the Memphis Police

609
00:32:46,160 --> 00:32:49,800
Speaker 1: additional boots on the ground support to the city that

610
00:32:49,920 --> 00:32:53,640
Speaker 1: has the highest murder rate by far in all of

611
00:32:54,240 --> 00:32:57,720
Speaker 1: Tennessee and one of the highest murder rates in the world,

612
00:32:58,240 --> 00:33:03,240
Speaker 1: certainly one of the highest murder rates in right now

613
00:33:03,920 --> 00:33:07,960
Speaker 1: in the country. And Trump mentioned New York, if we

614
00:33:08,080 --> 00:33:11,800
Speaker 1: could have the same wr Listeners, I'm not saying things

615
00:33:11,800 --> 00:33:14,240
Speaker 1: in New York are perfect, but if we could have

616
00:33:14,400 --> 00:33:18,440
Speaker 1: the same murder rate around the world as exists right

617
00:33:18,480 --> 00:33:23,680
Speaker 1: now in New York City, in most of our big

618
00:33:23,800 --> 00:33:26,000
Speaker 1: cities that have way higher rates, I need to pull

619
00:33:26,080 --> 00:33:29,400
Speaker 1: up the rates. We'd probably eliminate fifty percent of the

620
00:33:29,440 --> 00:33:32,280
Speaker 1: murders in this country. I mean, I mean, seriously, if

621
00:33:32,280 --> 00:33:34,600
Speaker 1: you look at the numbers, remember when you were stunned

622
00:33:34,640 --> 00:33:38,680
Speaker 1: by this, Memphis had more murders than New York City

623
00:33:39,400 --> 00:33:41,040
Speaker 1: in the last astonished years.

624
00:33:41,320 --> 00:33:45,000
Speaker 2: Astonishing, Look New York. For all that, people liked you

625
00:33:45,040 --> 00:33:47,120
Speaker 2: with that. I still think New York is the greatest,

626
00:33:47,200 --> 00:33:49,320
Speaker 2: is the greatest city all in in America. You can

627
00:33:49,320 --> 00:33:51,000
Speaker 2: get mad at me for that, but I still believe it.

628
00:33:51,040 --> 00:33:53,440
Speaker 2: I love New York. I always will. It's run by

629
00:33:53,440 --> 00:33:55,680
Speaker 2: some idiots. Recently, it's gone on a little bit of

630
00:33:55,680 --> 00:34:00,320
Speaker 2: a downturn, but it's not even in the top I

631
00:34:00,360 --> 00:34:03,640
Speaker 2: don't think Clay is in the top thirty most dangerous

632
00:34:03,640 --> 00:34:06,040
Speaker 2: cities per capita in this country when you're when you're

633
00:34:06,040 --> 00:34:09,359
Speaker 2: looking at all US cities, maybe it's in the top

634
00:34:09,400 --> 00:34:11,200
Speaker 2: twenty five or third. I don't think so. I mean,

635
00:34:11,239 --> 00:34:14,640
Speaker 2: so it's all about what's relative to New York, a

636
00:34:14,680 --> 00:34:19,680
Speaker 2: relative success or a failure compared to it being one

637
00:34:19,719 --> 00:34:23,440
Speaker 2: of the largest, one of the most safe large cities

638
00:34:23,760 --> 00:34:26,080
Speaker 2: in not just America, but honestly in the world. I mean,

639
00:34:26,120 --> 00:34:27,840
Speaker 2: there was a period of time where New York was

640
00:34:27,880 --> 00:34:32,000
Speaker 2: getting into conversation with some of the large European capitals,

641
00:34:32,040 --> 00:34:35,680
Speaker 2: and and so that's that's I think worth noting. You're

642
00:34:35,680 --> 00:34:37,440
Speaker 2: talking about dangerous, but we all know what it is,

643
00:34:37,480 --> 00:34:40,560
Speaker 2: and it's so sad. The dangerous cities perennially. You know,

644
00:34:40,680 --> 00:34:48,960
Speaker 2: year in year out, it's d C, Baltimore, Detroit, New Orleans, Memphis, Birmingham. Unfortunately,

645
00:34:49,800 --> 00:34:53,080
Speaker 2: what am I leaving one of my Chicago According to

646
00:34:53,120 --> 00:34:56,280
Speaker 2: this the top five per capita, and again per capita,

647
00:34:56,360 --> 00:35:00,279
Speaker 2: there's potentially some issues. This was twenty twenty three, so

648
00:35:00,480 --> 00:35:03,000
Speaker 2: I don't have the updated twenty twenty four. Memphis was

649
00:35:03,080 --> 00:35:06,760
Speaker 2: number one in the entire country per capita of most murders.

650
00:35:07,280 --> 00:35:12,600
Speaker 2: Saint Louis was number two, Baltimore number three, Washington, DC

651
00:35:12,840 --> 00:35:16,600
Speaker 2: number four, and Birmingham, Alabama, number five. I just did that.

652
00:35:16,640 --> 00:35:18,919
Speaker 2: I basically get it from memory because that's there. They're

653
00:35:19,000 --> 00:35:23,120
Speaker 2: always clay on that list. Chicago has a very high

654
00:35:23,160 --> 00:35:26,920
Speaker 2: overall number because it's a large city, but that violence

655
00:35:27,000 --> 00:35:31,640
Speaker 2: is mostly concentrated in certain areas of the city. But yeah,

656
00:35:31,680 --> 00:35:33,960
Speaker 2: this is this is something that needs to be addressed

657
00:35:34,000 --> 00:35:37,160
Speaker 2: and think about this. Now, let's set up the Chicago conversation.

658
00:35:37,400 --> 00:35:39,759
Speaker 2: Let's assume for a second that what Trump is doing

659
00:35:39,800 --> 00:35:43,440
Speaker 2: in DC and he continues to do even if thirty

660
00:35:43,560 --> 00:35:47,480
Speaker 2: days of data supports what Trump has been up to.

661
00:35:48,440 --> 00:35:53,719
Speaker 2: Even if it's thirty days, why wouldn't Chicago want to

662
00:35:53,760 --> 00:35:56,120
Speaker 2: see if they can go I mean, what happens if

663
00:35:56,160 --> 00:35:59,359
Speaker 2: he goes thirty days without a murder in DC? You're

664
00:35:59,360 --> 00:36:02,080
Speaker 2: gonna tell me don't want that in Chicago? Incredible, Yes,

665
00:36:02,400 --> 00:36:04,200
Speaker 2: you know you're gonna tell me. I understand, we're not

666
00:36:04,200 --> 00:36:06,000
Speaker 2: there yet, and we have to see where the data goes.

667
00:36:06,760 --> 00:36:12,000
Speaker 2: But they're they're arresting violent felons and serious criminals. They're

668
00:36:12,040 --> 00:36:15,520
Speaker 2: putting more people on the streets to prevent crime from happening.

669
00:36:16,400 --> 00:36:20,320
Speaker 2: I I can't see this as anything but upside for

670
00:36:20,680 --> 00:36:24,560
Speaker 2: the city of Chicago, except it makes Democrats look like

671
00:36:24,640 --> 00:36:27,200
Speaker 2: cowards who just lack the political will to protect their

672
00:36:27,239 --> 00:36:30,160
Speaker 2: own people. And that's a really tough thing for them.

673
00:36:30,600 --> 00:36:34,840
Speaker 2: You know, you're you're really going right into the heart

674
00:36:34,960 --> 00:36:38,800
Speaker 2: of Democrat power here with Hey, not only do you

675
00:36:38,840 --> 00:36:42,719
Speaker 2: guys democrats have bad ideas, you have been allowing your

676
00:36:42,760 --> 00:36:47,799
Speaker 2: own people to be killed, raved robbed. You know, all

677
00:36:47,840 --> 00:36:52,799
Speaker 2: these things in numbers far what was uh you know

678
00:36:53,280 --> 00:36:55,560
Speaker 2: what what should have been expected. Right, It's never gonna

679
00:36:55,560 --> 00:36:58,200
Speaker 2: be perfect, but far beyond because you don't want to

680
00:36:58,200 --> 00:36:59,840
Speaker 2: admit that Republicans had a better option.

681
00:37:00,520 --> 00:37:04,279
Speaker 1: Really, I think that's well said. I would also just

682
00:37:04,360 --> 00:37:08,440
Speaker 1: synthesize it this way. In DC, it was one of

683
00:37:08,440 --> 00:37:13,040
Speaker 1: the epicenters of the Black Lives Matter movement. They demonize police,

684
00:37:13,400 --> 00:37:16,480
Speaker 1: they put on the concrete there, they had a Black

685
00:37:16,520 --> 00:37:20,600
Speaker 1: Lives Matter Memorial Park, and the rate of black murder

686
00:37:20,800 --> 00:37:24,719
Speaker 1: skyrocketed in Washington, d C as BLM was at its

687
00:37:24,719 --> 00:37:30,480
Speaker 1: most active. Now Trump is actually showing what Black Lives

688
00:37:30,520 --> 00:37:35,480
Speaker 1: Matter truly means instead of just having rhetoric. He's going

689
00:37:35,520 --> 00:37:42,040
Speaker 1: out and arresting violent criminals. And as a result, black people,

690
00:37:42,120 --> 00:37:47,759
Speaker 1: who represent ninety four percent of all shooting victims in Washington, DC,

691
00:37:48,440 --> 00:37:52,920
Speaker 1: are overwhelmingly going to benefit the most from a decline

692
00:37:52,960 --> 00:37:55,919
Speaker 1: in violent crime. And this is true in most big

693
00:37:55,960 --> 00:37:59,360
Speaker 1: cities in America where black and brown people are overwhelmingly

694
00:37:59,480 --> 00:38:04,040
Speaker 1: victims of violent crime. And so if violent crime declines,

695
00:38:04,800 --> 00:38:09,200
Speaker 1: it typically doesn't decline as much in the rich parts

696
00:38:09,239 --> 00:38:13,040
Speaker 1: of town because the rich parts of town already by

697
00:38:13,080 --> 00:38:15,760
Speaker 1: and large have a much lower rate of violent crime.

698
00:38:15,920 --> 00:38:19,880
Speaker 1: So the most of the benefit of crime crackdowns in

699
00:38:20,000 --> 00:38:22,839
Speaker 1: you're to places that actually have the highest crime rates.

700
00:38:23,360 --> 00:38:28,680
Speaker 1: And so Trump is acting to protect black life in

701
00:38:28,800 --> 00:38:32,240
Speaker 1: terms of reality, more so than anyone who was super

702
00:38:32,280 --> 00:38:35,680
Speaker 1: outspoken from BLM. And he's doing it by letting cops

703
00:38:35,760 --> 00:38:40,400
Speaker 1: do their job, which overwhelmingly protects black life as opposed

704
00:38:40,440 --> 00:38:43,279
Speaker 1: to taking it, which was the story of BLM. Think

705
00:38:43,320 --> 00:38:45,640
Speaker 1: about the way he's setting this up, Clay. If you

706
00:38:45,719 --> 00:38:50,279
Speaker 1: have major crime drops in these cities and then there's

707
00:38:50,320 --> 00:38:58,040
Speaker 1: a or where they're doing this for the World Cup,

708
00:38:58,760 --> 00:39:01,160
Speaker 1: it all comes together in a way that looks like

709
00:39:01,719 --> 00:39:04,759
Speaker 1: a stroke of genius from Trump on all fronts. Yeah,

710
00:39:04,800 --> 00:39:07,480
Speaker 1: and closing up that circle on the World Cup. And

711
00:39:07,520 --> 00:39:10,920
Speaker 1: again we'll talk with Andrew Giuliani at two thirty. You

712
00:39:11,000 --> 00:39:13,040
Speaker 1: hit it, but I think it's worth hammering home. Even

713
00:39:13,080 --> 00:39:15,319
Speaker 1: if you hate soccer, even if you're like soccer is

714
00:39:15,360 --> 00:39:19,000
Speaker 1: a game for wossa's and socialists and communists and all

715
00:39:19,000 --> 00:39:24,560
Speaker 1: this stuff, whatever you think. The biggest richest sports fans

716
00:39:24,680 --> 00:39:27,920
Speaker 1: in the world are going to travel to the United

717
00:39:28,000 --> 00:39:30,680
Speaker 1: States for the World Cup, which is going to mean

718
00:39:30,719 --> 00:39:33,879
Speaker 1: the cities that host these events are going to bring

719
00:39:33,960 --> 00:39:39,000
Speaker 1: in tens of billions. I think billions of additional dollars

720
00:39:39,040 --> 00:39:44,160
Speaker 1: in revenue for restaurants, hotels, bars, so many people, uber drivers,

721
00:39:44,480 --> 00:39:47,920
Speaker 1: so many people out there, taxi drivers across the entire

722
00:39:48,000 --> 00:39:52,480
Speaker 1: spectrum of the economic landscape are going to benefit immensely

723
00:39:52,760 --> 00:39:56,040
Speaker 1: from having big events like the World Cup taking place

724
00:39:56,520 --> 00:39:58,799
Speaker 1: next summer. I want to tell you, if you're running

725
00:39:58,840 --> 00:40:00,360
Speaker 1: a business, you want to be able to act with

726
00:40:00,400 --> 00:40:03,400
Speaker 1: all your employees at once. Cell Phone calls work, but

727
00:40:03,440 --> 00:40:07,360
Speaker 1: they don't carry the immediacy necessarily of rapid radios. I

728
00:40:07,400 --> 00:40:11,360
Speaker 1: was talking about this. I went to a great event

729
00:40:11,400 --> 00:40:15,520
Speaker 1: down on the Florida Gulf Coast called Digital Graffiti community

730
00:40:15,520 --> 00:40:19,720
Speaker 1: called Alice Beach Gorgeous. They have a big, awesome event

731
00:40:19,800 --> 00:40:23,600
Speaker 1: there and we walked in and cell phone service sometimes

732
00:40:23,600 --> 00:40:27,440
Speaker 1: a little bit spotty. They were using rapid radios all

733
00:40:27,480 --> 00:40:30,279
Speaker 1: the security guards to communicate with each other. I didn't

734
00:40:30,280 --> 00:40:33,000
Speaker 1: even notice that my wife did. There are so many

735
00:40:33,040 --> 00:40:37,120
Speaker 1: different uses for this, both on individual and a corporate level.

736
00:40:37,640 --> 00:40:42,280

Speaker 1: of them off the top.

766
00:42:25,680 --> 00:42:25,879
Speaker 2: Here.

767
00:42:26,200 --> 00:42:30,440
Speaker 1: We have discussed in great detail the Bolton raid, the

768
00:42:30,520 --> 00:42:35,640
Speaker 1: raid on Trump's former security advisor, which took place this morning.

769
00:42:36,160 --> 00:42:39,160
Speaker 1: We don't know a lot of the details associated with it,

770
00:42:39,239 --> 00:42:43,400
Speaker 1: but it is underway. Trump is he still talking. Guys

771
00:42:44,200 --> 00:42:47,520
Speaker 1: talked for over an hour basically in the Oval Office

772
00:42:47,560 --> 00:42:50,680
Speaker 1: surrounding an announcement which we are getting lit up for.

773
00:42:50,760 --> 00:42:53,520
Speaker 1: It is very funny sometimes what the audience gets fired

774
00:42:53,560 --> 00:42:57,720
Speaker 1: up about. Because it is a World Cup related event,

775
00:42:57,800 --> 00:43:01,320
Speaker 1: and both Buck and I are proponents of soccer being

776
00:43:01,719 --> 00:43:05,080
Speaker 1: a sport that is worthy of watching. Many of you disagree.

777
00:43:05,400 --> 00:43:08,960
Speaker 1: The Kennedy Center is going to host the group stage

778
00:43:09,080 --> 00:43:14,839
Speaker 1: announcements on December the fifth, and I do think if

779
00:43:14,880 --> 00:43:18,520
Speaker 1: you are of the opinion that America's stature on the

780
00:43:18,520 --> 00:43:21,640
Speaker 1: global stage matters quite a lot. Trump is focused on

781
00:43:21,680 --> 00:43:24,840
Speaker 1: trying to make next year's World Cup one of the

782
00:43:24,880 --> 00:43:27,880
Speaker 1: greatest events the United States has ever hosted, and also

783
00:43:28,080 --> 00:43:32,080
Speaker 1: on making the twenty twenty eight Summer Olympics a big

784
00:43:32,120 --> 00:43:35,240
Speaker 1: deal as well, in mirrors in some ways the World Cup,

785
00:43:35,360 --> 00:43:39,400
Speaker 1: which we hosted in nineteen ninety four and the Atlanta

786
00:43:39,480 --> 00:43:42,319
Speaker 1: Olympics which we hosted in nineteen ninety six. Some of

787
00:43:42,360 --> 00:43:44,600
Speaker 1: you are letting me know that we have hosted the

788
00:43:44,680 --> 00:43:48,080
Speaker 1: Winter Olympics, and I certainly don't want to shade that,

789
00:43:48,400 --> 00:43:51,120
Speaker 1: but the Summer Olympics is a much bigger deal than

790
00:43:51,160 --> 00:43:56,080
Speaker 1: the Winter Olympics. Way more countries participate, way more viewers

791
00:43:56,560 --> 00:44:01,360
Speaker 1: watch and are involved in that. To integrate the Winner Olympics,

792
00:44:01,360 --> 00:44:03,719
Speaker 1: I hope to get to go what they're having them

793
00:44:03,800 --> 00:44:07,359
Speaker 1: out in Park City right in the twenty thirties, if

794
00:44:07,360 --> 00:44:09,839
Speaker 1: I'm not mistaken, And I would love to be able

795
00:44:09,840 --> 00:44:11,560
Speaker 1: to go out and watch some of those events in

796
00:44:11,640 --> 00:44:14,160
Speaker 1: Park City outside of Salt Lake City, which is a

797
00:44:14,360 --> 00:44:17,520
Speaker 1: fabulous there you go place to visit if you have

798
00:44:17,600 --> 00:44:19,400
Speaker 1: never been, and I hope to be able to go

799
00:44:19,440 --> 00:44:22,080
Speaker 1: to that. But twenty twenty six World Cup next year,

800
00:44:22,080 --> 00:44:23,360
Speaker 1: I bet Buck and I will go to some of

801
00:44:23,400 --> 00:44:27,719
Speaker 1: those games. Twenty twenty eight LA Olympics. Texas redistricting is

802
00:44:27,920 --> 00:44:31,239
Speaker 1: currently underway. The votes the Democrats have shown back up

803
00:44:31,320 --> 00:44:34,160
Speaker 1: after saying, oh, we're not going to be there. We've

804
00:44:34,200 --> 00:44:36,480
Speaker 1: got I want to play this cut. We need to

805
00:44:36,480 --> 00:44:40,160
Speaker 1: get her on the show. Virginia governor wins some seers

806
00:44:40,600 --> 00:44:43,880
Speaker 1: in what is turning into a heck of a Donnie

807
00:44:43,920 --> 00:44:50,920
Speaker 1: Brook in Virginia. Virginia has unique gubernatorial processes in place.

808
00:44:50,960 --> 00:44:54,240
Speaker 1: First of all, they have the election the year after

809
00:44:54,360 --> 00:44:58,120
Speaker 1: every presidential election, off year election, so twenty twenty one,

810
00:44:58,280 --> 00:45:01,319
Speaker 1: twenty twenty five, right now now, and you can only

811
00:45:01,400 --> 00:45:05,000
Speaker 1: serve one term. So Virginia Governor Glenn Youngkin, who has

812
00:45:05,080 --> 00:45:08,440
Speaker 1: done a fabulous job by all intents and purposes and

813
00:45:08,560 --> 00:45:11,480
Speaker 1: would probably be a very big favorite to be re elected,

814
00:45:11,880 --> 00:45:15,040
Speaker 1: is not able to run for a second term. He

815
00:45:15,120 --> 00:45:17,680
Speaker 1: could run in four more years, but you can't serve

816
00:45:17,760 --> 00:45:21,240
Speaker 1: back to back. And so when some Seers is running

817
00:45:21,239 --> 00:45:28,440
Speaker 1: against Abigail Spanberger and uh, that is currently underway also,

818
00:45:28,760 --> 00:45:30,960
Speaker 1: and she's got a great ad. Maybe we'll play it

819
00:45:31,000 --> 00:45:32,680
Speaker 1: for you before this show is out, but we need

820
00:45:32,680 --> 00:45:36,280
Speaker 1: to get her on the program. Okay, Trump being Trump,

821
00:45:36,840 --> 00:45:40,000
Speaker 1: there are still a bunch of funny clips that are

822
00:45:40,080 --> 00:45:45,240
Speaker 1: coming out from that event. Here is a reporter asking

823
00:45:45,320 --> 00:45:47,640
Speaker 1: Trump if he's going to take part in the World

824
00:45:47,719 --> 00:45:50,160
Speaker 1: Cup events, and Trump says, heck, do you see what

825
00:45:50,239 --> 00:45:53,280
Speaker 1: soccer players make? I may decide to start playing soccer

826
00:45:53,360 --> 00:45:54,120
Speaker 1: cut thirty four.

827
00:45:54,280 --> 00:45:59,600
Speaker 2: It's well, you have a part to play in on

828
00:45:59,680 --> 00:46:01,319
Speaker 2: this it I may play.

829
00:46:03,760 --> 00:46:05,759
Speaker 7: I mean, I see the money that the soccer has

830
00:46:05,760 --> 00:46:08,279
Speaker 7: appeared on the We call it soccer, but I see

831
00:46:08,320 --> 00:46:10,360
Speaker 7: the money that these soccer players that make it. I

832
00:46:10,400 --> 00:46:12,160
Speaker 7: may try and play a very good athlete.

833
00:46:12,239 --> 00:46:12,600
Speaker 2: My son.

834
00:46:13,120 --> 00:46:16,120
Speaker 7: My son is a very good athlete, and he's a

835
00:46:16,120 --> 00:46:19,920
Speaker 7: good soccer players on the tall side for soccer six nine.

836
00:46:20,239 --> 00:46:23,520
Speaker 7: It's pretty tall, but that's pretty it's on.

837
00:46:23,480 --> 00:46:24,040
Speaker 2: The tall side.

838
00:46:24,080 --> 00:46:24,520
Speaker 4: But he's good.

839
00:46:24,520 --> 00:46:26,920
Speaker 2: But no, I may, I may put.

840
00:46:26,800 --> 00:46:30,160
Speaker 7: On shorts on extremely good in shorts. I can enjoy

841
00:46:30,239 --> 00:46:30,600
Speaker 7: the play.

842
00:46:31,280 --> 00:46:31,440
Speaker 5: You know.

843
00:46:31,600 --> 00:46:34,400
Speaker 2: No, it's gonna be a lot of fun. The Trump.

844
00:46:34,440 --> 00:46:36,200
Speaker 1: I do think you and I have hit on this

845
00:46:36,280 --> 00:46:40,080
Speaker 1: a lot. Trump is way funnier than he gets credit for.

846
00:46:40,719 --> 00:46:43,839
Speaker 1: I mean, just way way funnier. He doesn't laugh laugh

847
00:46:43,960 --> 00:46:48,400
Speaker 1: like Kamala Harris has that really uncomfortable cackle whenever she

848
00:46:48,520 --> 00:46:51,520
Speaker 1: tries to make a joke. Trump does dead pans a

849
00:46:51,520 --> 00:46:54,279
Speaker 1: lot of his humor. And I think people are just

850
00:46:54,440 --> 00:46:57,239
Speaker 1: not I mean, I understand. Our audience gets Trump's sense

851
00:46:57,280 --> 00:46:59,200
Speaker 1: of humor, but I think a lot of his critics

852
00:46:59,239 --> 00:47:02,200
Speaker 1: don't understand and when he's actually joking and poking fun

853
00:47:02,200 --> 00:47:05,040
Speaker 1: at them, because they've kind of got the idea that

854
00:47:05,040 --> 00:47:06,960
Speaker 1: he's hitler, and so the idea that he would tell

855
00:47:07,000 --> 00:47:10,160
Speaker 1: a joke they don't get. And he's not a haha,

856
00:47:10,200 --> 00:47:12,160
Speaker 1: I'm gonna laugh at my own jokes guy. But he's

857
00:47:12,280 --> 00:47:17,479
Speaker 1: very good at deadpan, and so this is very very

858
00:47:17,880 --> 00:47:20,240
Speaker 1: very very funny from the White House a little bit earlier.

859
00:47:20,640 --> 00:47:22,200
Speaker 1: Let me hit you at this buck. You're a New

860
00:47:22,280 --> 00:47:26,960
Speaker 1: York City guy. Cracker Barrel is being universally savaged over

861
00:47:27,040 --> 00:47:30,800
Speaker 1: their decision to do away with the They need Sidney Sweeney.

862
00:47:30,840 --> 00:47:33,560
Speaker 2: I'm seeing the memes. Cracker Barrel needs Sidney Sweety to

863
00:47:33,600 --> 00:47:34,320
Speaker 2: save the brand.

864
00:47:34,960 --> 00:47:37,080
Speaker 1: So I have two questions for you to have some

865
00:47:37,160 --> 00:47:39,799
Speaker 1: fun to start off the day. Here the third hour Here,

866
00:47:39,840 --> 00:47:42,120
Speaker 1: after fourteen hours on the air so far this week,

867
00:47:42,400 --> 00:47:45,640
Speaker 1: let me ask you this. We have seen the old

868
00:47:45,840 --> 00:47:49,799
Speaker 1: white guy, Cracker barrel guy, both the Cracker and the

869
00:47:49,800 --> 00:47:54,320
Speaker 1: Barrel canceled. We have seen the Native American, the Indian

870
00:47:54,640 --> 00:47:58,200
Speaker 1: good looking land of Lake's Lady, remember her used to

871
00:47:58,200 --> 00:48:00,799
Speaker 1: be on the Land of Lakes, butter Aunt, poor Aunt

872
00:48:00,920 --> 00:48:04,560
Speaker 1: Jemima has given up, the Ghost on the Syrup and

873
00:48:04,840 --> 00:48:07,320
Speaker 1: Uncle Ben do you remember Uncle Ben from Uncle Ben's

874
00:48:07,400 --> 00:48:09,759
Speaker 1: Rice back in the day. All of them have been

875
00:48:09,840 --> 00:48:13,879
Speaker 1: canceled for being considered to be problematic. If you could

876
00:48:13,880 --> 00:48:18,399
Speaker 1: bring back one, who do you bring back? Cracker Barrel Guy,

877
00:48:19,200 --> 00:48:24,520
Speaker 1: Aunt Jemima, Uncle Ben or the Indian Landa Lakes Girl.

878
00:48:27,080 --> 00:48:30,040
Speaker 2: I'm probably Indian Landa Lakes Girl. I don't know. I'm

879
00:48:30,080 --> 00:48:30,719
Speaker 2: just thrown it out there.

880
00:48:30,960 --> 00:48:32,759
Speaker 1: I don't really have a strong preference that anything that's

881
00:48:32,760 --> 00:48:35,000
Speaker 1: a strong I've got a power ranking here. I know exactly.

882
00:48:35,200 --> 00:48:37,879
Speaker 1: I think it's Aunt Jemima. I think an Jemima really

883
00:48:37,920 --> 00:48:41,600
Speaker 1: got treated unfairly and she was great on the Pancake Syrup.

884
00:48:42,400 --> 00:48:44,439
Speaker 1: Now I want the Cracker Barrel Guy to come back,

885
00:48:44,840 --> 00:48:47,319
Speaker 1: but I would like to see all four return. But

886
00:48:47,440 --> 00:48:49,480
Speaker 1: I think an Jemima would be my number one draft

887
00:48:49,520 --> 00:48:52,000
Speaker 1: pick here and second part of this in your home

888
00:48:52,040 --> 00:48:56,000
Speaker 1: city of New York. Cracker Barrel decided to reach out

889
00:48:56,880 --> 00:48:59,759
Speaker 1: with all of this going on, and they had a

890
00:48:59,800 --> 00:49:05,520
Speaker 1: public line dancing event in New York City as part

891
00:49:05,560 --> 00:49:07,680
Speaker 1: of their rebranding of correct.

892
00:49:08,840 --> 00:49:12,320
Speaker 2: Sorry I'm laughing because I just can't believe.

893
00:49:11,960 --> 00:49:16,200
Speaker 1: That this is real. These marketing people are such morons.

894
00:49:17,360 --> 00:49:20,800
Speaker 1: They did a line dancing event in New York City

895
00:49:21,040 --> 00:49:25,440
Speaker 1: after canceling the logo, after arguing basically that the brand

896
00:49:25,600 --> 00:49:28,360
Speaker 1: was outdated, and now they're going to do line dancing

897
00:49:28,360 --> 00:49:29,200
Speaker 1: in New York City.

898
00:49:29,440 --> 00:49:32,040
Speaker 2: I'm gonna tell you it's crazy. AI people talk about

899
00:49:32,040 --> 00:49:33,799
Speaker 2: what jobs are going to be under pressure from AI.

900
00:49:35,320 --> 00:49:38,920
Speaker 2: I think marketing is going to be a career of

901
00:49:38,960 --> 00:49:41,080
Speaker 2: the past in a lot of ways because the tools

902
00:49:41,520 --> 00:49:47,240
Speaker 2: of marketing, making things, pulling together research, you know, making logos, brands,

903
00:49:47,680 --> 00:49:49,880
Speaker 2: that's going to get a lot easier for everybody. And

904
00:49:50,520 --> 00:49:53,680
Speaker 2: so I believe that you're going to see that also advertising,

905
00:49:53,719 --> 00:49:56,239
Speaker 2: the advertising industry more and more that's going to be

906
00:49:56,239 --> 00:49:59,880
Speaker 2: brought in house. And with AI you can create logo

907
00:50:00,200 --> 00:50:02,799
Speaker 2: and decals and videos and all kinds of things on

908
00:50:02,840 --> 00:50:06,520
Speaker 2: your own. So now, I'm sure there are some very

909
00:50:06,600 --> 00:50:10,160
Speaker 2: nice conservative marketing people out there, but generally those are

910
00:50:10,160 --> 00:50:13,319
Speaker 2: industries that are absolutely dominated by communists and have been

911
00:50:13,360 --> 00:50:15,040
Speaker 2: a huge problem for those of us who work in

912
00:50:15,080 --> 00:50:18,359
Speaker 2: conservative media for as long as I've been doing this,

913
00:50:19,160 --> 00:50:22,120
Speaker 2: because they block us all the time. They don't want

914
00:50:22,160 --> 00:50:26,600
Speaker 2: to work with conservative brands. These Madison Avenue advertising executives

915
00:50:26,600 --> 00:50:28,919
Speaker 2: and the rest of it. These marketing executives, they don't

916
00:50:28,920 --> 00:50:32,160
Speaker 2: want to work with conservative brands. They bring extremely left

917
00:50:32,160 --> 00:50:35,880
Speaker 2: wing politics to things. And so the wreckage that I

918
00:50:35,880 --> 00:50:39,680
Speaker 2: think is going to run rough shot through those industries

919
00:50:39,719 --> 00:50:42,880
Speaker 2: because of AI is well in a lot of cases.

920
00:50:42,880 --> 00:50:44,720
Speaker 2: It will be a come up in sud is well deserved.

921
00:50:45,120 --> 00:50:47,280
Speaker 1: Have you seen this video yet of the line dancing

922
00:50:47,360 --> 00:50:50,280
Speaker 1: going on in New York City's meatpacking district?

923
00:50:50,920 --> 00:50:54,359
Speaker 2: Can I just tell everybody meat meat packing is one

924
00:50:54,360 --> 00:50:57,080
Speaker 2: of the trendiest neighborhoods in New York. I think you

925
00:50:57,120 --> 00:51:01,359
Speaker 2: would have one of the lowest level of Republican registration

926
00:51:01,560 --> 00:51:04,400
Speaker 2: in meat packing probably in all the five boroughs. I mean,

927
00:51:04,400 --> 00:51:07,120
Speaker 2: it's up there with Brooklyn, the really blue parts of Brooklyn,

928
00:51:07,120 --> 00:51:10,600
Speaker 2: which are ninety plus ninety five percent plus Democrat. So

929
00:51:11,640 --> 00:51:15,560
Speaker 2: to roll out the line dancing in meat packing is

930
00:51:15,920 --> 00:51:16,799
Speaker 2: quite a thing to do.

931
00:51:18,440 --> 00:51:21,239
Speaker 1: I just you know, really what this gets down to,

932
00:51:21,440 --> 00:51:24,480
Speaker 1: And I know it's a silly, ridiculous story, but I

933
00:51:24,520 --> 00:51:30,400
Speaker 1: do think it's reflective. They hire these executives who have

934
00:51:30,600 --> 00:51:34,000
Speaker 1: contempt for the customer. That's really what this is about.

935
00:51:34,080 --> 00:51:38,200
Speaker 1: When you decide you're going to rebrand, oftentimes what you're

936
00:51:38,239 --> 00:51:43,120
Speaker 1: saying is the people who like us, we don't like them.

937
00:51:43,719 --> 00:51:47,520
Speaker 1: And this was bud Light. Hey, bud Light's to Freddy.

938
00:51:47,640 --> 00:51:51,080
Speaker 1: They have an immature sense of humor. Yeah, most guys do.

939
00:51:52,280 --> 00:51:56,279
Speaker 1: Most normal guys have a little bit of an inappropriate

940
00:51:56,280 --> 00:51:59,600
Speaker 1: and immature sense of humor. Every single person married to

941
00:51:59,680 --> 00:52:04,080
Speaker 1: a man and knows this. Every single person raising a

942
00:52:04,200 --> 00:52:08,400
Speaker 1: son or a grandson knows this. We all men are

943
00:52:08,440 --> 00:52:12,399
Speaker 1: a little bit immature and oftentimes a little bit inappropriate.

944
00:52:13,160 --> 00:52:15,600
Speaker 1: That doesn't make us bad people. In fact, it actually

945
00:52:15,680 --> 00:52:20,640
Speaker 1: makes us somewhat more likable and endearing, because if you

946
00:52:20,840 --> 00:52:24,600
Speaker 1: have a sense of humor, as we've just talked about

947
00:52:24,600 --> 00:52:28,359
Speaker 1: with Trump, sometimes you can have a more effective communication

948
00:52:28,480 --> 00:52:33,160
Speaker 1: strategy with humor than you can with straight aggressive analysis

949
00:52:33,400 --> 00:52:38,680
Speaker 1: of argument. The other thing here, though, Cracker Barrel I

950
00:52:38,719 --> 00:52:40,960
Speaker 1: thought Byron Donald's did a really good job calling in

951
00:52:41,920 --> 00:52:43,799
Speaker 1: and talking about this because he had worked there when

952
00:52:43,800 --> 00:52:47,000
Speaker 1: he was very good. He's always he's always a fun guest.

953
00:52:47,400 --> 00:52:49,560
Speaker 1: But good idea from Buck. Because he was tweeting about it,

954
00:52:49,600 --> 00:52:51,719
Speaker 1: he was like, you know, shut him a taxi. We'll

955
00:52:51,760 --> 00:52:54,440
Speaker 1: call in and talk about it. But I do think

956
00:52:55,400 --> 00:52:59,360
Speaker 1: I feel this and I see it because you know,

957
00:52:59,440 --> 00:53:03,600
Speaker 1: college foot sometimes get raked over the coals because we're

958
00:53:03,640 --> 00:53:08,680
Speaker 1: seen as rubes, because we're seen as not sophisticated football

959
00:53:08,920 --> 00:53:11,480
Speaker 1: or you know, you're you're not the right kind of

960
00:53:11,719 --> 00:53:15,680
Speaker 1: person to appear oftentimes in television, advertisement or whatever else.

961
00:53:15,880 --> 00:53:18,279
Speaker 1: That's the people who eat at Cracker Barrel, and so

962
00:53:19,360 --> 00:53:23,520
Speaker 1: they have contempt for their audience. And that's why you

963
00:53:23,600 --> 00:53:27,160
Speaker 1: do a pop up event in the meatpacking district of

964
00:53:27,239 --> 00:53:31,640
Speaker 1: New York City because that CEO, that's who she wants

965
00:53:31,680 --> 00:53:36,319
Speaker 1: coming to Cracker Barrel. She wants the trendy person from

966
00:53:36,360 --> 00:53:40,120
Speaker 1: New York City who they're never gonna eat at Cracker Barrel.

967
00:53:40,160 --> 00:53:40,879
Speaker 2: That's not your base.

968
00:53:41,120 --> 00:53:46,080
Speaker 1: It's old Southerners like me, people who want nostalgia from

969
00:53:46,160 --> 00:53:48,279
Speaker 1: old Southern meals that they might have had in the

970
00:53:48,320 --> 00:53:49,960
Speaker 1: past or that they might remember.

971
00:53:50,400 --> 00:53:53,160
Speaker 2: And I just it really it really gets me.

972
00:53:53,800 --> 00:53:58,759
Speaker 1: Angry because you're destroying something that someone built that is

973
00:53:58,800 --> 00:54:01,480
Speaker 1: actually great, and you have contempt for the people that

974
00:54:01,520 --> 00:54:04,320
Speaker 1: have allowed that business to exist. You're turning your back

975
00:54:04,360 --> 00:54:06,799
Speaker 1: on them, and it really fires me up. Honestly, Well,

976
00:54:06,840 --> 00:54:09,920
Speaker 1: this is this is progressives all throughout the culture. Their locusts.

977
00:54:10,360 --> 00:54:13,879
Speaker 2: They show up and they just destroy, They take over

978
00:54:13,960 --> 00:54:18,560
Speaker 2: and destroy things left and right. California for example, Now,

979
00:54:18,640 --> 00:54:21,040
Speaker 2: no it's not destroyed. California still got a lot of

980
00:54:21,040 --> 00:54:23,719
Speaker 2: beautiful stuff and you know, great places to live. But

981
00:54:23,760 --> 00:54:26,359
Speaker 2: in terms of governance, the taxes and all the way

982
00:54:26,400 --> 00:54:31,160
Speaker 2: that it's handled, California became became great when it was

983
00:54:31,200 --> 00:54:34,120
Speaker 2: a red state. That's when California reached what you know,

984
00:54:34,160 --> 00:54:37,000
Speaker 2: it became what it was when it was a reliably

985
00:54:37,080 --> 00:54:41,360
Speaker 2: republican state actually, and then Democrats took over, and they

986
00:54:41,440 --> 00:54:44,319
Speaker 2: do this in a lot of places. They take over

987
00:54:44,360 --> 00:54:47,719
Speaker 2: something that is you know, remarkable, and they make it.

988
00:54:47,719 --> 00:54:49,640
Speaker 2: I mean, look at what they did with Twitter. Before

989
00:54:49,640 --> 00:54:52,720
Speaker 2: Elon bought it, Twitter was this cool social media site

990
00:54:53,040 --> 00:54:56,759
Speaker 2: and then it just became infiltrated with these progressive, lunatic

991
00:54:57,760 --> 00:55:01,040
Speaker 2: left wingers and then they turned into a big social

992
00:55:01,200 --> 00:55:06,520
Speaker 2: justice you know, like a nonprofit basically, and we're using

993
00:55:06,520 --> 00:55:09,759
Speaker 2: it to discriminate against their political enemies, and they completely

994
00:55:10,400 --> 00:55:12,800
Speaker 2: overran that place. I mean, this is why what Elon

995
00:55:12,840 --> 00:55:15,080
Speaker 2: boughtered it was so fascinating. You saw this is like

996
00:55:15,120 --> 00:55:18,120
Speaker 2: they burrowed in. As I always say, they're an invasive species.

997
00:55:18,440 --> 00:55:21,959
Speaker 2: They don't seek to be in harmony with the right,

998
00:55:22,040 --> 00:55:25,120
Speaker 2: with conservatives in these places live in that live neutral space.

999
00:55:25,160 --> 00:55:29,680
Speaker 2: That's all nonsense. They want to completely create a political monoculture,

1000
00:55:29,960 --> 00:55:33,800
Speaker 2: and unfortunately Clay marketing and advertising, it's kind of like Broadway,

1001
00:55:34,440 --> 00:55:39,200
Speaker 2: total political monocultures. There's nothing else allowed except left wing stuff,

1002
00:55:40,160 --> 00:55:44,000
Speaker 2: and you know that's that needs to change. I hope

1003
00:55:44,000 --> 00:55:46,360
Speaker 2: it will change. But on the cracker barrel issue too,

1004
00:55:46,400 --> 00:55:49,359
Speaker 2: people were saying, well, who cares or why? No, it's

1005
00:55:49,400 --> 00:55:51,759
Speaker 2: not just that the woman who was in charge of

1006
00:55:51,760 --> 00:55:55,319
Speaker 2: this of this crappy rebrand effort clearly is like at

1007
00:55:55,400 --> 00:55:59,200
Speaker 2: MSNBC watching liberal. That's that's one part of it. Why

1008
00:55:59,239 --> 00:56:02,600
Speaker 2: did they want to change it? What was the indicator

1009
00:56:02,920 --> 00:56:05,800
Speaker 2: that it was in need of change. It was old,

1010
00:56:06,320 --> 00:56:10,160
Speaker 2: it was white, it was southern, that was and those

1011
00:56:10,360 --> 00:56:14,480
Speaker 2: things are viewed by the people put in charge of

1012
00:56:14,520 --> 00:56:19,640
Speaker 2: the rebrand as inherently negative. That's the point. That's why

1013
00:56:19,680 --> 00:56:22,600
Speaker 2: it offends people that they messed with this thing.

1014
00:56:23,440 --> 00:56:25,839
Speaker 1: And again we're gonna go to break. But I do

1015
00:56:25,960 --> 00:56:30,120
Speaker 1: think that is the only reason the business exists If

1016
00:56:30,160 --> 00:56:33,640
Speaker 1: you take away the Southern charm of Cracker Barrel, there

1017
00:56:33,800 --> 00:56:37,240
Speaker 1: is nothing left that is the foundation of the brand.

1018
00:56:37,920 --> 00:56:42,040
Speaker 1: You're never gonna get trans influencers from Brooklyn to show

1019
00:56:42,120 --> 00:56:46,600
Speaker 1: up at Cracker Barrel to go eat. They don't like

1020
00:56:46,680 --> 00:56:50,719
Speaker 1: the people who consume their product, and honestly, it is

1021
00:56:50,960 --> 00:56:55,000
Speaker 1: malpractice to have people running the company that don't respect

1022
00:56:55,560 --> 00:56:58,240
Speaker 1: the people that consume the product. I mean that's the truth.

1023
00:56:58,760 --> 00:57:02,160
Speaker 1: Look Tunnel the Towers. Their support and your support makes

1024
00:57:02,160 --> 00:57:05,440
Speaker 1: a lasting difference for so many families like the Clark family.

1025
00:57:05,920 --> 00:57:09,120
Speaker 1: US Air Force Sergeant Jesse Clark's military service came to

1026
00:57:09,160 --> 00:57:12,680
Speaker 1: an end after a chemical exposure caused a large tumor

1027
00:57:12,719 --> 00:57:15,680
Speaker 1: to form in his brain. As a result, he's paralyzed

1028
00:57:15,719 --> 00:57:18,920
Speaker 1: on the left side of his body, legally blind, prone

1029
00:57:18,960 --> 00:57:21,480
Speaker 1: to memory loss, and in a wheelchair for the remainder

1030
00:57:21,480 --> 00:57:24,440
Speaker 1: of his life. Friends like you help Tunnel the Towers

1031
00:57:24,480 --> 00:57:26,800
Speaker 1: build this hero a new smart home to help him

1032
00:57:26,880 --> 00:57:30,800
Speaker 1: live a more independent life. So many more families like

1033
00:57:30,840 --> 00:57:33,560
Speaker 1: the Clarks need your help now. Tunnel the Towers was

1034
00:57:33,600 --> 00:57:36,200
Speaker 1: founded after the horrific events of nine to eleven to

1035
00:57:36,240 --> 00:57:39,960
Speaker 1: help families like the Clerks. We can't forget not when
