WEBVTT - The DNC 0:00:01.560 --> 0:00:04.680 Hey, folks, Kamala Harris makes history. But here's the thing, 0:00:05.240 --> 0:00:08.959 she never even mentioned it in her acceptance speech. Also, 0:00:09.360 --> 0:00:12.360 who told you Beyonce was going to perform at the DNC. 0:00:12.840 --> 0:00:17.880 Turns out the rumors, the buzz, the anticipation were all wrong. 0:00:18.239 --> 0:00:23.159 And what the hell is a low te soy boy? 0:00:23.239 --> 0:00:25.119 And why it matters in this election? And with that, 0:00:25.200 --> 0:00:28.880 everybody welcomes to Amy and TJ Robes. Kamala Harris nailed 0:00:28.920 --> 0:00:31.880 it in her speech. And the reason I know that 0:00:32.320 --> 0:00:36.000 is because Fox News told me she nailed it. We 0:00:36.080 --> 0:00:39.280 do this now. We don't just watch one network or 0:00:39.320 --> 0:00:42.800 one cable network. When you flicked around last night and 0:00:42.840 --> 0:00:46.040 got immediate reaction, you could tell from the Fox News 0:00:46.040 --> 0:00:47.720 folks that she got it right. 0:00:48.479 --> 0:00:51.840 It's so interesting, and we've talked about this, but we 0:00:52.080 --> 0:00:56.520 encourage everyone, especially in these next seventy plus days, to 0:00:56.600 --> 0:01:00.520 check out all the channels because you will see two 0:01:00.760 --> 0:01:04.200 very different versions of the same thing based on who 0:01:04.240 --> 0:01:08.120 you're watching. But to your point, yes, you know that 0:01:08.280 --> 0:01:13.840 there is some concern potentially among Republicans for what we 0:01:13.920 --> 0:01:16.240 saw last night when you see Fox News not going 0:01:16.280 --> 0:01:19.360 straight in for the kill, and that does happen almost 0:01:19.440 --> 0:01:20.160 every other time. 0:01:20.319 --> 0:01:22.720 Every single time, you'll turn on one network and they 0:01:22.720 --> 0:01:24.319 say this is the greatest speech we've ever seen in 0:01:24.319 --> 0:01:27.000 political history, and the other one is say Foxes will 0:01:27.040 --> 0:01:28.679 say this is the worst speech I think has ever 0:01:28.720 --> 0:01:31.920 been delivered modern in the modern area. That wasn't last night. 0:01:32.040 --> 0:01:35.760 Immediate reaction from all of them was not necessarily I 0:01:35.760 --> 0:01:38.880 won't even say not just immediately critical, but it was 0:01:38.959 --> 0:01:43.240 complementary in a way, and saying she did the job 0:01:43.360 --> 0:01:47.600 and understood the assignment in that speech, and so to 0:01:47.760 --> 0:01:51.640 hear that was my first indication of just how well 0:01:51.680 --> 0:01:52.200 she had done. 0:01:52.320 --> 0:01:57.000 Yeah, and look, she's not known for giving riveting, powerful speeches, 0:01:57.000 --> 0:01:59.400 and yet last night she did exactly what she needed 0:01:59.440 --> 0:02:01.760 to do with just a few weeks prep time, because 0:02:01.920 --> 0:02:04.720 remember she just got the novel, or she just was 0:02:05.800 --> 0:02:09.280 handed this potential position a matter of weeks ago, so 0:02:09.400 --> 0:02:12.120 everything had to flip on its head from the lineup 0:02:12.160 --> 0:02:14.000 to what we were going to see over. 0:02:13.800 --> 0:02:14.720 The last four days. 0:02:14.720 --> 0:02:17.320 So it was you have to, at least, regardless of 0:02:17.320 --> 0:02:21.000 where you stand politically, give her and the people around 0:02:21.000 --> 0:02:23.840 her credit for pulling that off so quickly. 0:02:24.040 --> 0:02:26.040 Month and a day, a month and a day before 0:02:26.040 --> 0:02:28.160 she got on stage. Joe Biden was still supposed to 0:02:28.200 --> 0:02:30.440 be the nominee. He dropped out a month and a 0:02:30.560 --> 0:02:35.760 day before she got on stage. That's just remarkable. So her, 0:02:37.040 --> 0:02:40.240 there's not really an assessment or you have plenty of 0:02:40.600 --> 0:02:42.080 folks out there who'll tell you and give you an 0:02:42.120 --> 0:02:45.120 assessment of the speech and break it down politically. I 0:02:45.440 --> 0:02:50.280 was though, Roades, we couldn't miss it because who knows 0:02:50.320 --> 0:02:53.080 when we might see this again in our lives, because 0:02:53.120 --> 0:02:55.480 we've never seen it before, the country hasn't seen it before. 0:02:55.520 --> 0:02:59.480 A black woman is a major party nominee for president 0:03:00.080 --> 0:03:02.680 and it wasn't even mentioned last night in our speech. 0:03:02.800 --> 0:03:03.760 Isn't it remarkable? 0:03:03.840 --> 0:03:07.280 I mean, you saw the powerful the visual of the 0:03:07.320 --> 0:03:09.880 women out in the audience who were all dressed in white, 0:03:09.919 --> 0:03:14.119 notably honoring women's suffrage over one hundred years ago. 0:03:14.200 --> 0:03:15.440 So that was a pretty cool thing. 0:03:15.480 --> 0:03:20.280 And I saw women openly weeping listening to Kamala speaking 0:03:20.320 --> 0:03:24.040 for most likely what you just mentioned. Yet she never 0:03:24.120 --> 0:03:26.520 said it, she never acknowledged it. She's just the second 0:03:26.600 --> 0:03:31.840 woman to be given this opportunity within the Democratic Party, 0:03:31.840 --> 0:03:35.040 and she would of course become the first woman and notably, yes, 0:03:35.120 --> 0:03:38.960 first black woman, first woman of East Asian descent to 0:03:39.840 --> 0:03:43.520 take on that position, and yet she didn't point that out, 0:03:43.560 --> 0:03:46.120 and I'm sure that was a very deliberate thing. She 0:03:46.280 --> 0:03:49.040 wanted to be powerful, and not that women can't be powerful, 0:03:49.040 --> 0:03:52.800 but she wanted to be relatable and powerful, and I 0:03:52.840 --> 0:03:55.440 think if those were her two goals, she absolutely nailed it. 0:03:55.520 --> 0:03:57.560 You said, just because she's a woman doesn't have to 0:03:57.600 --> 0:04:00.600 be powerful, But I think that does play in it, right, 0:04:01.440 --> 0:04:05.040 And so much talk about feminine and masculine during the 0:04:05.160 --> 0:04:07.560 DNC in particular R and C as well. We're going 0:04:07.560 --> 0:04:09.000 to get into that in a second. 0:04:08.680 --> 0:04:08.760 But. 0:04:11.440 --> 0:04:14.400 It's okay to say that out loud, that there sometimes 0:04:14.520 --> 0:04:16.800 is an extra burden on women, whether that's in the 0:04:17.480 --> 0:04:21.200 in the office on the Upper West Side here in 0:04:21.240 --> 0:04:26.360 New York or president presidential politics, there's some you have 0:04:26.440 --> 0:04:30.719 to make sure you exude some level of strength and 0:04:30.839 --> 0:04:31.920 power and command. 0:04:32.400 --> 0:04:35.080 It is a tough needle to thread for a woman 0:04:35.360 --> 0:04:38.880 in her position or who is seeking a powerful position. 0:04:38.960 --> 0:04:41.240 Look what happened to Hillary. She wasn't warm enough, she 0:04:41.320 --> 0:04:43.719 wasn't likable enough, you know, So you've got to strike 0:04:43.720 --> 0:04:47.040 this balance as a woman in this type of position 0:04:47.279 --> 0:04:52.400 to exude warmth and at the same time exude strength. 0:04:52.880 --> 0:04:55.960 And you even mentioned at some points when we were 0:04:55.960 --> 0:04:57.440 watching her speech, is she yelling? 0:04:58.040 --> 0:05:01.240 You know? She had to come on strong and forcefully. 0:05:01.279 --> 0:05:03.120 This is a woman who's going to potentially have the 0:05:03.200 --> 0:05:06.279 nuclear codes, and she has to be able to invade 0:05:06.279 --> 0:05:09.120 countries or protect democracy, all. 0:05:08.960 --> 0:05:09.480 Of these things. 0:05:09.520 --> 0:05:13.599 So she has to exude a real strength that we 0:05:13.720 --> 0:05:15.880 have to feel and believe. And that's a tough thing 0:05:15.920 --> 0:05:19.359 to do sometimes because at the same time, as a woman, 0:05:19.400 --> 0:05:21.880 you have to be likable, and you have to be kind, 0:05:22.240 --> 0:05:24.000 and you have to be you know, it's just all 0:05:24.240 --> 0:05:28.920 exaust it is And I thought she did nail it, 0:05:29.839 --> 0:05:31.200 and that's a tough thing to do. 0:05:31.880 --> 0:05:34.560 And look, she met the moment and that moment was 0:05:34.720 --> 0:05:39.000 history that I watching it, I wanted to be and 0:05:39.080 --> 0:05:41.880 I was you have to be proud just of your 0:05:41.880 --> 0:05:44.160 country in the moment. Forget everything else. Look at what 0:05:44.200 --> 0:05:46.159 we did as a country. Look this is happening in 0:05:46.160 --> 0:05:53.080 the country. That's kind of incredible. The short list Jeraldine Ferraro, 0:05:53.360 --> 0:05:58.839 Sarah Palin, and Kamala Harris only three women to be 0:05:58.920 --> 0:06:02.400 nominated as VP. Of course, kama is the only one 0:06:02.400 --> 0:06:06.160 who has won. But now we're not that far from 0:06:06.240 --> 0:06:08.400 I mean, Hillary Clinton wasn't that long ago. She was 0:06:08.440 --> 0:06:11.520 the first. We just don't have. I mean, all the 0:06:11.520 --> 0:06:15.240 Michelle Bachman's of the world, and the Kloba Jars and 0:06:15.720 --> 0:06:18.919 Nicky Haley, all those women that have it seemed like 0:06:18.960 --> 0:06:23.000 they're everywhere in politics and major party politics. But this 0:06:23.200 --> 0:06:26.520 was still and this is new to us to see 0:06:26.560 --> 0:06:28.279 what we saw last night, and I want it to 0:06:28.279 --> 0:06:30.200 be and I was so proud to see this black 0:06:30.200 --> 0:06:32.440 woman up there doing this thing and proud of the country. 0:06:32.800 --> 0:06:34.480 But then it was like, I don't say it was 0:06:34.480 --> 0:06:37.960 a letdown, but it's almost a compliment too that we 0:06:38.040 --> 0:06:40.839 didn't focus on it, that we maybe do expect this 0:06:40.960 --> 0:06:42.719 to be the next thing, and this is just who 0:06:42.760 --> 0:06:45.280 we are now and how we rolled and maybe that's 0:06:45.760 --> 0:06:47.520 the Maybe that's the best takeaway. 0:06:47.800 --> 0:06:49.400 And you know what, now that you mentioned it in 0:06:49.400 --> 0:06:52.800 that context, I love that she didn't mention that she 0:06:53.640 --> 0:06:56.160 or point out that she's a woman, that she's a 0:06:56.200 --> 0:06:58.760 black woman, that she's a woman of color. I think 0:06:58.760 --> 0:07:01.280 it's pretty cool that she above all of that and 0:07:01.520 --> 0:07:05.120 just went for basically, if you didn't know her, she 0:07:05.200 --> 0:07:08.359 was introducing herself for people who do. She was reintroducing 0:07:08.360 --> 0:07:10.640 herself and her story, and at the same time she 0:07:10.680 --> 0:07:17.560 really did get into policy, and she went after Trump wholeheartedly, 0:07:17.720 --> 0:07:19.280 which I didn't know that she was going to do. 0:07:19.320 --> 0:07:21.280 I mean, the speakers who had led up to her 0:07:21.320 --> 0:07:24.440 had all chosen to do that as well, because you know, Democrats, 0:07:24.440 --> 0:07:27.760 I think have and they have pointed out that this 0:07:27.840 --> 0:07:29.760 is a joyful campaign, and yet at the same time 0:07:29.800 --> 0:07:35.600 they understand that they have to at this point point 0:07:35.680 --> 0:07:38.200 out who not to vote for it, not just to 0:07:38.280 --> 0:07:40.560 vote for them, but and I hate that that's where 0:07:40.560 --> 0:07:42.720 we are in politics, but I think that's where we've 0:07:42.760 --> 0:07:43.320 always been. 0:07:44.480 --> 0:07:46.560 You know, so many of these things. I often do 0:07:46.640 --> 0:07:49.400 feel the same. It seems like every speech Theatic Convention 0:07:49.520 --> 0:07:54.119 is about change, about the future. It's about going forward, 0:07:54.160 --> 0:07:56.720 it's about not going back. It's about giving out an alternative 0:07:56.680 --> 0:07:58.760 and being the fresh face and we're going to turn 0:07:58.800 --> 0:08:02.800 the They all into that degree feel the same. She felt, 0:08:03.760 --> 0:08:06.520 in part, this has been there, but a lot of 0:08:06.520 --> 0:08:09.640 people in the country wanted an alternative to two old 0:08:09.680 --> 0:08:12.480 white guys. Yeah, and so a lot of those folks 0:08:12.520 --> 0:08:15.720 look at that last night and go, Okay, he's capable. 0:08:15.960 --> 0:08:19.320 We're good. You can at least feel that if you're 0:08:19.360 --> 0:08:21.480 not into democratic left and right and all this. She 0:08:21.720 --> 0:08:24.480 just gave another option to what we are used to 0:08:24.520 --> 0:08:26.000 in this country, which is a bunch of old white 0:08:26.040 --> 0:08:31.560 dudes on Capitol Hill telling everybody what they can and 0:08:31.600 --> 0:08:34.240 can't do, and oftentimes the complaint is telling women what 0:08:34.280 --> 0:08:36.880 they can and can't do with their bodies. So just 0:08:36.880 --> 0:08:40.000 to turn the page from those guys might be appealing 0:08:40.120 --> 0:08:41.400 outside of just party line. 0:08:42.080 --> 0:08:44.320 I certainly think it is. It was appealing to me that, 0:08:44.800 --> 0:08:46.880 you know, it's funny. We've been watching, especially with the 0:08:46.880 --> 0:08:49.680 Democrats this week, go long and late, so it was 0:08:49.760 --> 0:08:53.640 nice to see her to be on time and brief. 0:08:54.000 --> 0:08:54.960 I was looking this up. 0:08:55.360 --> 0:09:00.840 She has one of the shortest acceptance speeches in campaign history, 0:09:00.920 --> 0:09:03.160 so hers was only thirty eight minutes. It's the twelfth 0:09:03.240 --> 0:09:06.760 shortest in modern history. Guess where Trump falls on that. 0:09:06.840 --> 0:09:08.160 We watched his speech as well. 0:09:08.200 --> 0:09:08.800 For the RNC. 0:09:09.280 --> 0:09:13.960 The first, second, and third longest convention speeches ever given 0:09:14.000 --> 0:09:16.240 were all done by mister Donald J. 0:09:16.360 --> 0:09:20.319 T All surprised and by the way he was speaking 0:09:20.640 --> 0:09:23.760 sort of the entire time. Kamala Harris was giving her 0:09:23.880 --> 0:09:27.480 speech he went on to a truth social the social media. 0:09:29.320 --> 0:09:31.839 I guess it's company that he is, I guess the 0:09:31.920 --> 0:09:35.320 largest owner in. But he was refuting and that was 0:09:35.360 --> 0:09:39.240 pretty smart on his part because he still was getting 0:09:39.240 --> 0:09:43.160 a lot of attention online and certainly in news publications 0:09:43.400 --> 0:09:47.320 as Kamala was speaking, he was refuting her points. You know, 0:09:47.360 --> 0:09:51.040 he's always been fairly brilliant when it comes to his tactics, 0:09:51.480 --> 0:09:55.000 and he was, Yeah, he managed to at least, I 0:09:55.040 --> 0:09:58.400 wouldn't say share the spotlight, but at least continue to 0:09:58.400 --> 0:10:00.880 have the spotlight on him while Kamala was speaking. 0:10:01.320 --> 0:10:03.000 And you know, how do you we all have gotten 0:10:03.000 --> 0:10:05.400 into this habit now. I don't know why. Sometimes I 0:10:05.640 --> 0:10:07.559 take a step back because it feels disrespectful. We all 0:10:07.559 --> 0:10:08.200 call her Kamala. 0:10:08.920 --> 0:10:10.959 Oh you know what, you make a good point of 0:10:11.160 --> 0:10:11.960 Kamala Harris. 0:10:11.960 --> 0:10:15.040 Everybody everybody called her Kamala, Kamala Kama. We're not calling 0:10:15.120 --> 0:10:18.160 him Donald nobody. And it's I mean, her name is 0:10:18.200 --> 0:10:22.920 first name, and it's it stands out and but yeah, 0:10:22.920 --> 0:10:25.920 it's something about it feels disrespectful to me. Do not 0:10:26.000 --> 0:10:26.920 call her VP Harris. 0:10:26.960 --> 0:10:28.080 That's actually a really good point. 0:10:28.120 --> 0:10:30.319 I think it's funny even though I think they leaned 0:10:30.400 --> 0:10:34.280 into it a little bit last night with Carrie Washington 0:10:35.040 --> 0:10:38.840 with her with uh Kamala Harris's I think they were 0:10:38.880 --> 0:10:39.640 her grand nieces. 0:10:39.679 --> 0:10:40.400 They were adorable. 0:10:40.640 --> 0:10:46.400 But because Donald Trump mispronounces her name, Carrie was saying 0:10:47.720 --> 0:10:52.000 potentially deliberately, which would be disrespectful. So just in fun, 0:10:52.160 --> 0:10:56.240 they had the whole audience say her name Kama Lakama 0:10:56.640 --> 0:10:58.520 La so that no one would get it wrong. So 0:10:58.760 --> 0:11:01.680 Kamala was a big part of the evening and embracing 0:11:01.760 --> 0:11:02.240 that name. 0:11:02.520 --> 0:11:05.120 Said that all the signs said Kamala. They didn't say Harris. 0:11:05.480 --> 0:11:07.959 So you know, I don't know if it's disrespectful, but 0:11:08.000 --> 0:11:09.240 they've certainly leaned into it. 0:11:09.480 --> 0:11:11.200 I don't I don't think it is for what they're 0:11:11.240 --> 0:11:13.160 doing with the campaign, just saying for me, it feels 0:11:13.160 --> 0:11:15.120 a little weird. I guess just from our background in 0:11:15.160 --> 0:11:15.880 our history. 0:11:15.840 --> 0:11:18.920 We ever say George when we're talking about George W. 0:11:19.000 --> 0:11:21.400 Bush, right, I mean, and that is true, And but 0:11:21.440 --> 0:11:23.800 we did say Hillary, but maybe that's because the other 0:11:23.840 --> 0:11:26.760 Clinton was Bill. You know, I don't know, but that 0:11:27.000 --> 0:11:31.040 is a that is true. And yeah, and funny enough, 0:11:31.080 --> 0:11:34.280 you only called me by my last name and people. 0:11:34.000 --> 0:11:36.600 Think I'm being disrespectful by doing that. That's true. 0:11:36.880 --> 0:11:38.880 You call me Rovaca Robes and people are like, why 0:11:38.880 --> 0:11:40.719 don't you just call her by her name, Andy, You're 0:11:40.720 --> 0:11:41.640 being disrespectful. 0:11:42.040 --> 0:11:45.040 Can't win? I have thought about that. 0:11:45.240 --> 0:11:45.640 What do you do? 0:11:45.760 --> 0:11:48.440 Oh, that's just a little thing from last night. I 0:11:48.520 --> 0:11:51.439 did think her best most effect, I really thought it 0:11:51.480 --> 0:11:56.440 was effective, was the making the point about being a 0:11:56.480 --> 0:12:00.800 prosecutor and she's only had one client. I love that 0:12:01.040 --> 0:12:04.480 because it was very easy to understand I've only had 0:12:04.520 --> 0:12:08.400 one client, the people. I'd like, that's kind of effective 0:12:08.400 --> 0:12:09.360 when you're about to run. 0:12:09.200 --> 0:12:12.040 For president, she said from the courthouse to the White House. 0:12:12.240 --> 0:12:16.640 I just I've only represented the people, and then made 0:12:16.679 --> 0:12:19.920 the comparison saying Trump is only represented himself. 0:12:20.000 --> 0:12:21.000 He's only had one client. 0:12:21.160 --> 0:12:23.440 He's the one client. So I thought that was maybe 0:12:23.480 --> 0:12:25.360 one of her most effective and I was surprised to 0:12:25.440 --> 0:12:30.840 hear her be as effective as she was. On foreign policy, 0:12:31.080 --> 0:12:34.200 this was the one I thought she nailed, comparing Trump 0:12:34.240 --> 0:12:37.640 to a tyrant and said he would cozy up to 0:12:37.679 --> 0:12:41.440 them and then the Israel Gaza. That line she was written, 0:12:41.440 --> 0:12:44.480 it looks good on paper, and she delivered that line well. 0:12:44.400 --> 0:12:45.160 She truly did. 0:12:45.520 --> 0:12:49.439 She obviously made it very clear that she and her 0:12:49.480 --> 0:12:53.520 party stand with the people of Israel, but also made 0:12:53.600 --> 0:12:56.960 a very big nod to the people of Gaza and 0:12:57.000 --> 0:13:03.120 the atrocities and the absolute horrific, horrific attacks they've endured 0:13:03.280 --> 0:13:06.320 and the losses that they've felt. So she did thread 0:13:06.320 --> 0:13:07.440 that needle very well. 0:13:07.559 --> 0:13:10.800 Yeah, and to her line quote, in this war, such 0:13:10.840 --> 0:13:14.360 that Israel is secure, the hostages are released, the suffering 0:13:14.400 --> 0:13:16.960 in Gaza ends, and the Palestine and people can realize 0:13:17.000 --> 0:13:21.239 their right to dignity, security, freedom and self determination. It's 0:13:21.480 --> 0:13:23.120 I think a lot of that debate has been going 0:13:23.200 --> 0:13:28.360 on and around you know, dinner tables and around the 0:13:28.360 --> 0:13:32.880 water cooler, that you can be supportive of one but 0:13:33.040 --> 0:13:37.040 also your heart can go out to the suffering of another. 0:13:37.120 --> 0:13:39.520 There are people who are suffering. She did that in 0:13:39.559 --> 0:13:44.040 the most human of ways, but also as a politician 0:13:44.120 --> 0:13:47.480 and delivering a policy statement. I thought that was that 0:13:48.040 --> 0:13:50.000 that came for me, came out. I know, like, wow, 0:13:50.559 --> 0:13:51.000 that's good. 0:13:51.080 --> 0:13:52.719 Yeah, because I don't think, like to your point, I 0:13:52.760 --> 0:13:54.520 don't think a lot of people were expecting her to 0:13:54.559 --> 0:13:58.360 go there. And I also think, look, regardless of where 0:13:58.360 --> 0:14:03.080 you are, how she went about attacking Trump was very effective, 0:14:03.080 --> 0:14:05.160 perhaps maybe just to her own party. I don't know 0:14:05.200 --> 0:14:09.160 how many Independence and and even other Republicans who she's 0:14:09.200 --> 0:14:12.960 obviously trying to bring over. We saw a former US Congressman, 0:14:13.000 --> 0:14:14.360 Adam Kissinger. 0:14:15.040 --> 0:14:17.400 I always say his name right? Wrong? Is I say? 0:14:17.400 --> 0:14:17.640 There? 0:14:18.120 --> 0:14:19.160 How many times we interviewed this. 0:14:19.400 --> 0:14:19.680 You know what? 0:14:19.720 --> 0:14:20.720 I can never say his name right? 0:14:20.800 --> 0:14:23.600 Practice his name every time Adam Kinsinger. 0:14:23.160 --> 0:14:26.640 Kinsinger, see I want to say, like, Henry Kissinger gets 0:14:26.680 --> 0:14:28.400 in my head and then I can't say his name. 0:14:28.600 --> 0:14:29.360 He's not coming out. 0:14:29.600 --> 0:14:30.520 But I thought that was. 0:14:30.480 --> 0:14:34.120 A really powerful moment when he came out and spoke. 0:14:34.160 --> 0:14:36.280 We've interviewed him several times, as we've mentioned, and he 0:14:36.400 --> 0:14:39.280 was one of two Republicans who was on the January 0:14:39.320 --> 0:14:41.160 sixth committee, so we already knew where he stood, and 0:14:41.160 --> 0:14:43.840 he's been very vocal about his. 0:14:45.280 --> 0:14:46.600 Anti Trump feelings. 0:14:46.640 --> 0:14:48.960 But to actually speak in front of the DNC was 0:14:49.280 --> 0:14:51.520 I thought a pretty powerful thing. But to then see 0:14:51.520 --> 0:14:56.240 where Kamala went when she went after Trump. She certainly 0:14:56.320 --> 0:14:58.360 spent a lot of her speech talking about what the 0:14:58.520 --> 0:15:01.760 risks would be of having another Trump term. 0:15:02.200 --> 0:15:04.400 Yes, and that's to be expected. The only time I 0:15:04.440 --> 0:15:09.400 get well a little uncomfortable. Don't like when we pit 0:15:09.720 --> 0:15:12.440 It's one thing to say this person is wrong for 0:15:12.560 --> 0:15:16.440 the country, but to oftentimes we put anybody who supports 0:15:17.280 --> 0:15:21.400 that candidate into a particular box of also being evil 0:15:21.440 --> 0:15:23.000 and wrong and how could you? And that's how we 0:15:23.040 --> 0:15:26.240 have conversations with friends and family, people on the street. Sometimes, right, 0:15:26.280 --> 0:15:29.680 you support that person, then you must be a baby killer, 0:15:29.760 --> 0:15:33.080 You must hate the poor, you must we don't we 0:15:33.440 --> 0:15:37.480 Sometimes I hate that we split each other up as groups. 0:15:37.480 --> 0:15:39.320 That way, you are still an American and still can 0:15:39.320 --> 0:15:41.160 be a decent person no matter which one of these 0:15:41.160 --> 0:15:43.400 people you actually support. 0:15:43.480 --> 0:15:44.880 Yes, I agree. 0:15:45.000 --> 0:15:48.479 So going after this specific candidate talking about policy differences 0:15:48.600 --> 0:15:51.880 or even political styles, that's fine. But yes, when you 0:15:51.920 --> 0:15:55.640 start grouping in the people who support Trump versus the 0:15:55.640 --> 0:15:59.160 people who support Kamala Harris, that is not. That's where 0:15:59.160 --> 0:16:02.840 we get into just I think that's when we fall 0:16:02.880 --> 0:16:03.760 apart as a country. 0:16:03.840 --> 0:16:08.160 Without a doubt. 0:16:13.280 --> 0:16:16.240 At the beginning, it was long in the. 0:16:16.200 --> 0:16:18.560 Bier you were wondering where she was going with this. 0:16:19.560 --> 0:16:21.840 It was interesting. I don't know that I've ever heard 0:16:21.840 --> 0:16:24.720 of presidential candidate talk about the kind of music she 0:16:24.840 --> 0:16:27.720 likes to listen to growing up. But she got very 0:16:27.760 --> 0:16:32.000 specific with how she was raised and the influences in 0:16:32.040 --> 0:16:35.760 her life. And she was a great storyteller. She's obviously 0:16:36.520 --> 0:16:38.680 a great prosecutor. She knows how to build a case, 0:16:39.040 --> 0:16:40.920 and that's what she was doing. She was building a 0:16:40.960 --> 0:16:43.800 case for herself. You know, That's what I was thinking 0:16:43.800 --> 0:16:45.720 when I was listening to her. Wow, she knows how 0:16:45.760 --> 0:16:48.360 to talk to a jury, she knows how to talk 0:16:48.400 --> 0:16:50.440 to a judge, she knows how to win the room. 0:16:50.520 --> 0:16:51.400 And that's what she was doing. 0:16:51.600 --> 0:16:53.520 That's exactly what I thought, because you obviously, you and 0:16:53.600 --> 0:16:56.479 I have been around and seen more prosecutors and attorneys, 0:16:56.480 --> 0:17:00.760 probably more than most. But when it comes to listing 0:17:00.880 --> 0:17:07.360 things and alliteration, she was absolutely prosecutorial. Yes, up there 0:17:07.359 --> 0:17:09.440 on stage down, and it's very effective when you are 0:17:09.720 --> 0:17:11.639 delivering a speech. I was looking, you know, I was texting. 0:17:12.040 --> 0:17:14.000 I was texting Chuck last night about the speech, and 0:17:14.000 --> 0:17:17.080 you're talking about it's kind of waiting on it to do. 0:17:17.119 --> 0:17:20.280 People know what Chuck is, Uh, I don't know. 0:17:20.320 --> 0:17:24.119 A friend of mine, friend of mine, and that was 0:17:24.160 --> 0:17:26.720 my thing, and he's a very big supporter of Democrat 0:17:26.960 --> 0:17:28.880 And I was like, what's going on here? Like, where 0:17:28.920 --> 0:17:32.879 are we going with the speech? Three laughing emojis and 0:17:32.880 --> 0:17:37.199 says be patient, motherfucker. This is what he wrote. I 0:17:37.240 --> 0:17:39.760 wrote back, dude, now we're talking about daycare and Uncle Freddy. 0:17:40.320 --> 0:17:42.359 To your point, she was talking about a lot of 0:17:42.400 --> 0:17:43.840 things like specific. 0:17:43.400 --> 0:17:47.399 Families, names of neighbors and yes, friends, what's going on? 0:17:47.480 --> 0:17:51.520 And he throws back, it's early. Be patient, And sure 0:17:51.600 --> 0:17:54.640 enough I had to say, Okay, she brought it out. 0:17:54.920 --> 0:17:58.280 She did once she she put her story together, and 0:17:58.560 --> 0:18:02.040 then once she started talking talking about she found a 0:18:02.160 --> 0:18:07.200 stride and an energy and performative, she nailed it. Yeah, 0:18:07.280 --> 0:18:08.640 I mean, you have to be a good performer. 0:18:08.680 --> 0:18:13.880 When you just mentioned what Chuck sent to you the expletive, well, 0:18:13.880 --> 0:18:17.480 that just reminded me. We heard Kamala Harris. Now I 0:18:17.480 --> 0:18:21.119 feel bad, just say Kamala cursing. She in one of 0:18:21.160 --> 0:18:23.080 the videos that led up to her, she dropped an 0:18:23.200 --> 0:18:25.560 F bomb. They bleeped it out, and then she actually 0:18:25.600 --> 0:18:29.960 when she quoted her mom said, asked right, half asked, 0:18:30.680 --> 0:18:34.119 So that was you know, that was obviously true strategic 0:18:34.640 --> 0:18:35.320 as well. 0:18:35.080 --> 0:18:37.439 And my thought was that that was her being strong. 0:18:37.560 --> 0:18:39.600 She was a badass. She's not some weak woman. 0:18:39.720 --> 0:18:42.720 She's a she's a strong prosecutor, and she she can 0:18:42.760 --> 0:18:45.480 talk the talk, she can walk the walk. I wondered 0:18:45.480 --> 0:18:48.280 how many people that might have turned off, however, but 0:18:48.320 --> 0:18:49.080 it was a choice. 0:18:49.400 --> 0:18:51.919 But why if it was a choice, why for strength? 0:18:52.000 --> 0:18:56.639 I think strength and curse. You know, there's just yeah, 0:18:56.119 --> 0:19:00.199 I'm like you, I get down and dirty, edgy, know 0:19:00.240 --> 0:19:02.320 how to Yeah, I know how to say what I 0:19:02.320 --> 0:19:03.480 need to say when I need to say it, and 0:19:03.520 --> 0:19:04.280 I won't back down. 0:19:04.359 --> 0:19:07.680 It's just there's a there's a posturing to that. I think. 0:19:08.920 --> 0:19:10.960 Yeah, I mean it's cathartic too, but yes, it's a 0:19:11.040 --> 0:19:12.680 choice to do it on that stage. 0:19:13.040 --> 0:19:15.280 I was surprised how little they talked about Joe Biden. 0:19:15.680 --> 0:19:18.080 But now it makes sense, but I was still surprised. 0:19:18.160 --> 0:19:20.520 Yeah, she thanked him right off the top. And did 0:19:20.560 --> 0:19:22.760 we hear his name again? We did, actually, so I 0:19:22.800 --> 0:19:25.600 was googling it because I never I was listening for it, 0:19:25.640 --> 0:19:28.840 and I don't remember hearing her ever say his name again. Yep. 0:19:29.200 --> 0:19:32.480 And no one really wrote anything about that, but it 0:19:32.640 --> 0:19:34.360 definitely was notable. 0:19:34.600 --> 0:19:37.000 She got it. She got everybody, all the dudes out 0:19:37.040 --> 0:19:40.680 of the way. Thank you, husband, Doug, thank you, Joe Biden, 0:19:41.240 --> 0:19:43.879 Thank you Tim, Tim Waltz. All right, let's get to 0:19:43.960 --> 0:19:46.960 Kamala now. Yeah, then move right on. And I can 0:19:47.080 --> 0:19:49.840 understand why I was still just with Joe Biden. That 0:19:49.920 --> 0:19:52.439 was I guess I was anticipating her to say a 0:19:52.440 --> 0:19:54.960 whole lot more in that regard, but it didn't happen. 0:19:55.080 --> 0:19:59.000 And the thing, we watched a lot of coverage leading 0:19:59.240 --> 0:20:02.359 up to her speed and it seemed like every few minutes, 0:20:02.520 --> 0:20:06.119 some reporter on the floor was asking somebody in the 0:20:06.160 --> 0:20:11.120 audience about the much anticipated special guests that was supposed 0:20:11.119 --> 0:20:14.160
