1 00:00:03,320 --> 00:00:08,920 Speaker 1: Welcome in Friday edition. Clay Travis, Buck Sexton Show. Appreciate 2 00:00:09,039 --> 00:00:11,440 Speaker 1: all of you hanging out with us as we are 3 00:00:11,520 --> 00:00:15,840 Speaker 1: rolling into the weekend to give you the absolute latest 4 00:00:16,040 --> 00:00:20,479 Speaker 1: on everything. Since we now cover the stock market on 5 00:00:20,560 --> 00:00:22,960 Speaker 1: a daily basis, let me give you the latest. It's 6 00:00:23,000 --> 00:00:28,520 Speaker 1: not moving very much today, essentially unmoved in general, s 7 00:00:28,560 --> 00:00:31,160 Speaker 1: and p up a little bit. The Dow is up 8 00:00:31,200 --> 00:00:35,720 Speaker 1: a little bit. Not movement very much. If if you 9 00:00:35,880 --> 00:00:38,320 Speaker 1: listen to Jim Kramer and sold all your stocks, you 10 00:00:38,360 --> 00:00:40,960 Speaker 1: made an awful decision. Because of the week in stocks 11 00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:45,520 Speaker 1: has actually been good. China has raised tariffs a bit 12 00:00:45,640 --> 00:00:50,239 Speaker 1: more on American goods, but basically sends the notice that 13 00:00:50,280 --> 00:00:53,920 Speaker 1: they will not be raising goods anymore. There is talk 14 00:00:54,040 --> 00:00:57,920 Speaker 1: that there will be further discussion between China and the 15 00:00:58,040 --> 00:01:02,080 Speaker 1: United States going forward. That is the latest in trade wars. 16 00:01:02,600 --> 00:01:05,880 Speaker 1: In Clay and Buck news, Buck texted us, I'm trying 17 00:01:05,880 --> 00:01:10,320 Speaker 1: to not bother Buck and carry. Buck texted us yesterday 18 00:01:11,040 --> 00:01:14,520 Speaker 1: that things were going well, but that the process of 19 00:01:14,600 --> 00:01:20,480 Speaker 1: beginning the induction might take twelve to eighteen hours. That is, 20 00:01:20,760 --> 00:01:23,880 Speaker 1: I've been through this a little bit and I'm inevitably 21 00:01:23,880 --> 00:01:28,080 Speaker 1: gonna screw this up, but with my wife on the 22 00:01:28,160 --> 00:01:32,520 Speaker 1: three different deliveries that we have had my recollection, and 23 00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:36,960 Speaker 1: I know I'm going to get flooded with obgyn messages here. 24 00:01:37,520 --> 00:01:41,520 Speaker 1: My recollection is that there is a drug called pitussin 25 00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:46,400 Speaker 1: that is designed to gradually move a baby towards delivery. 26 00:01:46,440 --> 00:01:50,200 Speaker 1: This is my recollection in between complaining about the Wi Fi, 27 00:01:50,360 --> 00:01:52,600 Speaker 1: as my wife pointed out in the delivery room, and 28 00:01:52,640 --> 00:01:56,360 Speaker 1: in between not being happy with the television selections because 29 00:01:56,360 --> 00:01:58,960 Speaker 1: I couldn't find the games that I wanted to watch. Again, 30 00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:01,320 Speaker 1: my wife called in and gave her recollections of our 31 00:02:01,320 --> 00:02:03,240 Speaker 1: first baby being born, and that's two of the things 32 00:02:03,240 --> 00:02:06,400 Speaker 1: that she remembers. And honestly, the WiFi should work in 33 00:02:06,440 --> 00:02:09,400 Speaker 1: the hospital. Let's be honest in my defense, and why 34 00:02:09,440 --> 00:02:13,120 Speaker 1: would you not have basic sports television stations on cable? 35 00:02:13,240 --> 00:02:15,680 Speaker 1: But you know, it wasn't really about me. Babies are 36 00:02:15,680 --> 00:02:18,240 Speaker 1: happy and healthy. But I do remember my wife's water 37 00:02:18,320 --> 00:02:22,000 Speaker 1: broke two weeks early in the middle of the night, 38 00:02:22,440 --> 00:02:25,480 Speaker 1: and we went in early in the morning, and I 39 00:02:25,560 --> 00:02:29,440 Speaker 1: believe they put putussin on and that is what slowly 40 00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:32,280 Speaker 1: moves you towards the late labor process. I give you 41 00:02:32,320 --> 00:02:35,760 Speaker 1: that update, because we have been deluged with so many 42 00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:38,120 Speaker 1: of you saying, Hey, what's the latest, what's the latest, 43 00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:41,480 Speaker 1: what's the latest? That is the latest? That was yesterday evening. 44 00:02:41,720 --> 00:02:44,640 Speaker 1: We've not gotten an update today. I am solo with 45 00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:47,160 Speaker 1: you here. Probably gonna be solo with you quite a 46 00:02:47,160 --> 00:02:51,080 Speaker 1: bit next week, I would imagine, because the baby boy 47 00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:54,200 Speaker 1: has not yet arrived so far as we know. I've 48 00:02:54,200 --> 00:02:57,280 Speaker 1: got my phone on trying not to bother Buck and carry. 49 00:02:57,440 --> 00:03:01,680 Speaker 1: Buck did say that his very funny Buck did say 50 00:03:01,680 --> 00:03:05,080 Speaker 1: that his blow up mattress was working well, which is 51 00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:07,960 Speaker 1: one of the most ridiculous decisions that I've heard anybody. 52 00:03:08,040 --> 00:03:10,600 Speaker 1: He was not confident enough in the couch in the 53 00:03:10,680 --> 00:03:14,120 Speaker 1: delivery room, so Buck took in his own blow up 54 00:03:14,160 --> 00:03:17,240 Speaker 1: mattress and has been sitting off to the side blowing 55 00:03:17,320 --> 00:03:19,240 Speaker 1: up the mattress. I presume that he slept on it 56 00:03:19,320 --> 00:03:22,600 Speaker 1: last night. And we will continue to give you updates 57 00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:28,480 Speaker 1: on how all of that is going. But newest news 58 00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:32,400 Speaker 1: that is out there is we got more inflation reads 59 00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:36,960 Speaker 1: this morning, which suggests that inflation is continuing to come down, 60 00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:40,960 Speaker 1: not just come down from the nine percent that Joe 61 00:03:41,040 --> 00:03:45,280 Speaker 1: Biden took us to but actually come down, meaning the 62 00:03:45,320 --> 00:03:49,600 Speaker 1: goods out there in the United States are costing less. 63 00:03:50,160 --> 00:03:53,840 Speaker 1: That is a very very good sign because it means 64 00:03:53,880 --> 00:03:57,280 Speaker 1: that your dollars go further. It also means that the 65 00:03:57,360 --> 00:04:01,600 Speaker 1: Fed actually has some evidence that they could lower rates 66 00:04:01,720 --> 00:04:05,960 Speaker 1: even further after they had to skyrocket the rates to 67 00:04:06,040 --> 00:04:09,720 Speaker 1: try to deal with the nine percent nine percent inflation 68 00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:14,000 Speaker 1: rate that Joe Biden put in place, which necessitated one 69 00:04:14,040 --> 00:04:19,320 Speaker 1: of the most rapid rises in interest rates in the 70 00:04:19,360 --> 00:04:23,680 Speaker 1: modern history of the United States. So now what's interesting 71 00:04:23,839 --> 00:04:25,680 Speaker 1: is we kind of got a little bit of a pause. 72 00:04:26,040 --> 00:04:29,640 Speaker 1: The markets seem to have adjusted to the United States 73 00:04:29,720 --> 00:04:34,280 Speaker 1: versus China trade war. We have new talking points that 74 00:04:34,320 --> 00:04:36,600 Speaker 1: are now coming out. And by the way, China has 75 00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:40,400 Speaker 1: taken tariffs to one hundred and twenty five percent. United 76 00:04:40,400 --> 00:04:45,120 Speaker 1: States has tariffs of one hundred and forty five percent. Basically, 77 00:04:45,920 --> 00:04:48,919 Speaker 1: we have had a lot of economic experts on to 78 00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:52,719 Speaker 1: talk with you, Stephen Moore yesterday, the day before that, 79 00:04:53,839 --> 00:04:56,599 Speaker 1: we talked with Art Laugher. We are going to talk 80 00:04:56,640 --> 00:05:01,080 Speaker 1: with Larry Kudlow at about an hour from now at 81 00:05:01,120 --> 00:05:03,880 Speaker 1: the top of the second hour of the program. Many 82 00:05:03,880 --> 00:05:06,840 Speaker 1: of you watch his show Cudlow on Fox Business He 83 00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:11,760 Speaker 1: is a former high level Trump economic advisor, and he 84 00:05:11,839 --> 00:05:15,239 Speaker 1: will be on with us at one to talk about 85 00:05:15,279 --> 00:05:19,520 Speaker 1: the absolute latest there. There are reports that there may 86 00:05:19,560 --> 00:05:24,320 Speaker 1: be telephone calls between Trump and Chinese Premiere Zee, the 87 00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:27,560 Speaker 1: leader there. We will keep you updated on that. But 88 00:05:28,120 --> 00:05:31,360 Speaker 1: what's important to know is the pivot has really happened, 89 00:05:31,920 --> 00:05:35,200 Speaker 1: and the pivot has happened now where they are trying 90 00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:40,040 Speaker 1: to argue, despite all evidence to the contrary, that Trump's 91 00:05:40,120 --> 00:05:44,440 Speaker 1: trade war is already costing you more in terms of 92 00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:46,800 Speaker 1: the goods that you are buying. And I just think 93 00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:50,039 Speaker 1: it's important to understand what the talking points so that 94 00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:53,880 Speaker 1: you can push back against this again. Double inflation readings 95 00:05:54,240 --> 00:06:00,000 Speaker 1: early days of the Trump administration, the cost of goods, groceries, gas, 96 00:06:00,560 --> 00:06:03,760 Speaker 1: all of that is coming down. Eggs. Everybody wanted to 97 00:06:03,839 --> 00:06:07,440 Speaker 1: talk about eggs for a little while. Here is Jasmine Crockett, 98 00:06:07,440 --> 00:06:10,960 Speaker 1: who has become, unfortunately for Democrats, one of the chief 99 00:06:11,040 --> 00:06:17,000 Speaker 1: spokespeople of the Democrat Party right now saying cut twenty one. 100 00:06:17,640 --> 00:06:21,359 Speaker 1: You can't afford your home groceries. What is she saying, 101 00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:25,760 Speaker 1: because there's deportations that are happening again, this is cut 102 00:06:25,800 --> 00:06:29,240 Speaker 1: twenty two. This is absolutely unintelligible. 103 00:06:29,320 --> 00:06:31,560 Speaker 2: Listen, We've got to do better to connect the dots 104 00:06:31,760 --> 00:06:34,560 Speaker 2: and let people know the reason you can't afford a 105 00:06:34,600 --> 00:06:38,080 Speaker 2: home is because of these filled immigration policies. The reason 106 00:06:38,120 --> 00:06:40,039 Speaker 2: you're not going to be able to afford your food 107 00:06:40,360 --> 00:06:43,280 Speaker 2: is because of these filled immigration policies. And the same 108 00:06:43,360 --> 00:06:47,039 Speaker 2: can goal for the hospitality industries, where we have so 109 00:06:47,200 --> 00:06:49,960 Speaker 2: many of those in the hospitality industry that are saying 110 00:06:49,960 --> 00:06:52,080 Speaker 2: they do not have the workers that they need right now. 111 00:06:52,960 --> 00:06:56,279 Speaker 1: All right, So the talking point now is not only 112 00:06:56,360 --> 00:07:01,880 Speaker 1: the trade issues, right, it is that Trump being focused 113 00:07:01,920 --> 00:07:08,440 Speaker 1: on illegal immigration is actually creating the cost increase which 114 00:07:08,480 --> 00:07:11,760 Speaker 1: doesn't actually exist at all, because the data reflects that 115 00:07:11,800 --> 00:07:16,200 Speaker 1: the cost of goods is actually declining. Okay, So this 116 00:07:16,480 --> 00:07:22,240 Speaker 1: is interesting, Jasmine Crockett, to me, is a great example 117 00:07:22,800 --> 00:07:26,200 Speaker 1: of how the Democrat Party has become broken in the 118 00:07:26,200 --> 00:07:28,360 Speaker 1: way that they talked to so many Americans out there. 119 00:07:28,840 --> 00:07:31,960 Speaker 1: And we discussed this yesterday when we had the Anderson 120 00:07:32,040 --> 00:07:37,280 Speaker 1: Cooper town hall with Bernie Sanders and they had that attorney, 121 00:07:37,440 --> 00:07:40,640 Speaker 1: the woman stand up and Anderson Cooper referred to her 122 00:07:40,720 --> 00:07:44,280 Speaker 1: as she, and she said, actually, it's they them, and 123 00:07:44,320 --> 00:07:47,080 Speaker 1: then she led into her next question which is why 124 00:07:47,120 --> 00:07:50,800 Speaker 1: do men not support the Democrat Party which was too perfect? 125 00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:52,920 Speaker 1: That was like they were trying to give us in 126 00:07:53,080 --> 00:07:57,880 Speaker 1: one talk back moment why they have collapsed. This is 127 00:07:57,920 --> 00:08:01,200 Speaker 1: also interesting. We've talked about this sum Jasmine Crockett is 128 00:08:01,280 --> 00:08:04,840 Speaker 1: a Houston, Texas area congresswoman. I believe maybe it was Dallas. 129 00:08:04,960 --> 00:08:10,840 Speaker 1: She's from Texas. She actually went to super elite private schools. 130 00:08:11,240 --> 00:08:15,640 Speaker 1: Her private school cost over thirty thousand dollars a year. 131 00:08:15,720 --> 00:08:18,400 Speaker 1: Right now, this is someone that went to a school 132 00:08:18,440 --> 00:08:21,280 Speaker 1: that you, most of you could never afford to send 133 00:08:21,360 --> 00:08:24,760 Speaker 1: your kids to. I'm a K through twelve public school kid. 134 00:08:24,880 --> 00:08:26,960 Speaker 1: I couldn't have gone to a school like this when 135 00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:31,520 Speaker 1: I was growing up. Here she is saying, Hey, I 136 00:08:31,600 --> 00:08:35,199 Speaker 1: really appreciate the sacrifices my parents made and how they 137 00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:37,200 Speaker 1: pushed me as a kid, and how they put me 138 00:08:37,360 --> 00:08:40,160 Speaker 1: in how they put me in great schools. Imagine if 139 00:08:40,200 --> 00:08:43,720 Speaker 1: this was the message instead of hey all of the 140 00:08:43,760 --> 00:08:47,200 Speaker 1: lies Trump is hitler. It's just interesting to hear what 141 00:08:47,400 --> 00:08:51,120 Speaker 1: Democrats said back before they went insane. And I wanted 142 00:08:51,160 --> 00:08:53,880 Speaker 1: to play this for you because I think it's emblematic 143 00:08:54,000 --> 00:08:57,640 Speaker 1: of the era that we're in where Jasmine Crockett has 144 00:08:57,720 --> 00:09:03,400 Speaker 1: to appear dumber, were least, or less articulate than she 145 00:09:03,559 --> 00:09:07,760 Speaker 1: actually is in her mind to appeal to the Democrat base. 146 00:09:07,840 --> 00:09:09,080 Speaker 1: Listen to Cut twenty three. 147 00:09:09,120 --> 00:09:13,080 Speaker 2: My parents worked multiple jobs, and I went to public 148 00:09:13,120 --> 00:09:16,760 Speaker 2: school until the sixth grade, and then there were some 149 00:09:16,840 --> 00:09:19,640 Speaker 2: problems with like the junior high, and they were very concerned, 150 00:09:19,679 --> 00:09:22,560 Speaker 2: so they got additional jobs and they worked to put 151 00:09:22,600 --> 00:09:25,400 Speaker 2: me into private school. So I was in private school 152 00:09:25,640 --> 00:09:29,400 Speaker 2: until I graduated at high school. And it's interesting that 153 00:09:29,480 --> 00:09:32,160 Speaker 2: my mom says that because she was one of those 154 00:09:32,160 --> 00:09:36,040 Speaker 2: people that I didn't get to rest right Like. It 155 00:09:36,120 --> 00:09:39,040 Speaker 2: wasn't a matter of go to school and maybe play 156 00:09:39,080 --> 00:09:42,800 Speaker 2: some video games and maybe go outside. It was you know, 157 00:09:42,880 --> 00:09:46,200 Speaker 2: you've got to do Dell teens. You've got to be 158 00:09:46,360 --> 00:09:49,360 Speaker 2: active in inroads, you've got to do upward bound, you've 159 00:09:49,360 --> 00:09:51,800 Speaker 2: got to do maa Like the list goes on and 160 00:09:51,840 --> 00:09:54,959 Speaker 2: on and on. Junior achievement of all the things that 161 00:09:55,000 --> 00:09:59,240 Speaker 2: she had me doing. And I'm so appreciative to her now. 162 00:09:59,360 --> 00:10:01,959 Speaker 2: I was very hired when I was young. 163 00:10:02,679 --> 00:10:06,880 Speaker 1: I like this Jasmine Crocket. I like Jasmine Crockett's parents. 164 00:10:07,960 --> 00:10:11,280 Speaker 1: Imagine if that was Jasmine Crockett's message, and that was 165 00:10:11,320 --> 00:10:15,080 Speaker 1: the Democrat party's message. Imagine if she went out and 166 00:10:15,120 --> 00:10:18,560 Speaker 1: she said, Hey, the reason I'm successful is because my 167 00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:21,800 Speaker 1: mom and dad busted their asses to put me in 168 00:10:21,880 --> 00:10:25,240 Speaker 1: the best possible school that I could go to, because 169 00:10:25,280 --> 00:10:28,120 Speaker 1: the local public school that I was going to was 170 00:10:28,200 --> 00:10:30,520 Speaker 1: not taking me to the best place where I could go. 171 00:10:32,520 --> 00:10:36,720 Speaker 1: Imagine if that was her message. Imagine if her message 172 00:10:36,760 --> 00:10:39,200 Speaker 1: was we got to buckle down. People have to work. 173 00:10:39,280 --> 00:10:43,160 Speaker 1: Sometimes two jobs, three jobs, jump around from one place 174 00:10:43,160 --> 00:10:45,480 Speaker 1: to another. Mom and dad may both have to work 175 00:10:46,240 --> 00:10:48,960 Speaker 1: in order to give the best opportunity to their kids. 176 00:10:50,000 --> 00:10:52,840 Speaker 1: That's something that connects with all of you out there. 177 00:10:54,120 --> 00:10:57,400 Speaker 1: And even with that said, a lot of you couldn't 178 00:10:57,400 --> 00:11:00,480 Speaker 1: afford the private school that Jasmine Crockett got the privilege 179 00:11:00,520 --> 00:11:02,800 Speaker 1: of going to to get the education that she did. 180 00:11:03,880 --> 00:11:08,280 Speaker 1: But the aspirational nature of her parents, the fact that 181 00:11:08,320 --> 00:11:11,520 Speaker 1: they made her work her ass off and made her 182 00:11:12,559 --> 00:11:16,280 Speaker 1: into someone who could be elected a congresswoman one day, 183 00:11:17,400 --> 00:11:23,360 Speaker 1: that's something that has appeal. Why isn't that the Democrat message? 184 00:11:24,440 --> 00:11:28,079 Speaker 1: Think about how lost they are that Jasmine Crockett, who 185 00:11:28,080 --> 00:11:30,560 Speaker 1: went to private school, in an elite private school from 186 00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:33,439 Speaker 1: six to twelfth grade and then went off to college 187 00:11:33,480 --> 00:11:37,160 Speaker 1: because of it. Now Phel's compelled to talk to her 188 00:11:37,200 --> 00:11:42,600 Speaker 1: Texas constituents like she doesn't have an education at all. 189 00:11:42,720 --> 00:11:45,200 Speaker 1: What does that say about the Democrat Party? What does 190 00:11:45,240 --> 00:11:49,600 Speaker 1: it say when you have to appear dumber than you 191 00:11:49,640 --> 00:11:53,920 Speaker 1: are in public and you rarely shared the real story 192 00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:57,840 Speaker 1: of your life because you're convinced it doesn't connect with 193 00:11:57,880 --> 00:12:00,680 Speaker 1: the constituency you're trying to speak to. That's not good 194 00:12:01,800 --> 00:12:05,680 Speaker 1: whatever position you have. If you ever have to appear 195 00:12:05,920 --> 00:12:11,440 Speaker 1: dumber than you are in order to get somewhere, that's 196 00:12:11,480 --> 00:12:14,880 Speaker 1: not something you should aspire to do. And by the way, 197 00:12:14,880 --> 00:12:18,040 Speaker 1: getting on my soapbox, if you're ever in a relationship 198 00:12:19,480 --> 00:12:23,440 Speaker 1: with someone where you feel compelled, whether it's a friend, 199 00:12:23,720 --> 00:12:28,200 Speaker 1: whether it's a boyfriend girlfriend, where you feel compelled to 200 00:12:28,360 --> 00:12:31,320 Speaker 1: act like a dumber version of yourself to fit in, 201 00:12:31,840 --> 00:12:33,679 Speaker 1: you don't need to be there, and it's not very 202 00:12:33,679 --> 00:12:38,559 Speaker 1: good for you. That's the Democrat Party writ large. How 203 00:12:38,559 --> 00:12:42,440 Speaker 1: many of you knew that about Jasmine Crockett? How many 204 00:12:42,520 --> 00:12:45,559 Speaker 1: of you are aware of her background in any way? 205 00:12:47,640 --> 00:12:50,040 Speaker 1: I'd like to get Jasmine Crockett's parents on the show. 206 00:12:51,600 --> 00:12:54,559 Speaker 1: Are they proud of the language that she has adopted. 207 00:12:55,960 --> 00:13:00,520 Speaker 1: Maybe just because she's their daughter, But I don't know, 208 00:13:01,080 --> 00:13:04,200 Speaker 1: based on the way that they raised her, it doesn't 209 00:13:04,240 --> 00:13:07,240 Speaker 1: sound like she's living by the values that they created 210 00:13:07,240 --> 00:13:14,600 Speaker 1: in her. It doesn't sound like she's espousing the same 211 00:13:14,640 --> 00:13:19,160 Speaker 1: American dream that they had for her. I just think 212 00:13:19,200 --> 00:13:24,840 Speaker 1: it's so interesting what democrats choose to focus on when 213 00:13:24,920 --> 00:13:29,760 Speaker 1: they actually tell their stories, and sometimes how incredibly dishonest 214 00:13:29,800 --> 00:13:32,520 Speaker 1: it actually is. Take some of your calls eight hundred 215 00:13:32,520 --> 00:13:34,719 Speaker 1: two A two two aaa two during the course of 216 00:13:34,720 --> 00:13:36,840 Speaker 1: it today's program.

I talked 257 00:15:52,080 --> 00:15:56,680 Speaker 1: about the news of the day so far being essentially 258 00:15:56,760 --> 00:16:00,440 Speaker 1: that inflation continues to decline, which is a very very 259 00:16:00,440 --> 00:16:02,440 Speaker 1: good sign. I want to play a couple of those 260 00:16:02,440 --> 00:16:04,720 Speaker 1: cuts for you because I think it's important. There's gonna 261 00:16:04,720 --> 00:16:07,520 Speaker 1: be a lot of talk out there, Oh Trump's tariffs, 262 00:16:07,560 --> 00:16:11,320 Speaker 1: They're going to increase costs overall. Actually, I'm not sure 263 00:16:11,360 --> 00:16:13,920 Speaker 1: that's true at all. And I've told you for some 264 00:16:14,080 --> 00:16:17,520 Speaker 1: time that the average person, and I would put myself 265 00:16:17,520 --> 00:16:22,000 Speaker 1: in this category, drives and notices the price of gas 266 00:16:22,040 --> 00:16:25,480 Speaker 1: more than almost anything. And we are rapidly moving towards 267 00:16:25,640 --> 00:16:28,480 Speaker 1: under three dollars a gallon gas, which for many of 268 00:16:28,520 --> 00:16:31,040 Speaker 1: you out there driving around across your country. That is 269 00:16:31,080 --> 00:16:33,960 Speaker 1: the average cost of a gallon of unleaded gas that 270 00:16:34,000 --> 00:16:36,640 Speaker 1: we are headed to all over the country. And that 271 00:16:36,760 --> 00:16:41,360 Speaker 1: is because there's major deflationary pressure as it pertains to 272 00:16:41,400 --> 00:16:46,960 Speaker 1: the overall cost of gas. Also, groceries are actually declining 273 00:16:47,400 --> 00:16:51,360 Speaker 1: below the rate of inflation. That is, for most people 274 00:16:51,400 --> 00:16:53,840 Speaker 1: out there, the things that you notice the most, and 275 00:16:53,880 --> 00:16:56,600 Speaker 1: I put myself in this category is what does gas 276 00:16:56,640 --> 00:17:00,360 Speaker 1: cost and what does your food cost? After going up 277 00:17:00,560 --> 00:17:04,200 Speaker 1: massive amounts under Joe Biden, the numbers are now turning 278 00:17:04,359 --> 00:17:07,280 Speaker 1: negative under Trump. That is, you are paying less for 279 00:17:07,400 --> 00:17:11,200 Speaker 1: gas and you are paying less for your groceries relative 280 00:17:11,240 --> 00:17:14,399 Speaker 1: to the overall inflation rate. And here is evidence of 281 00:17:14,440 --> 00:17:17,600 Speaker 1: that for the second time this week from both CNN 282 00:17:18,080 --> 00:17:23,240 Speaker 1: and CNBC. Let's start with CNN. This is their report 283 00:17:23,359 --> 00:17:27,040 Speaker 1: on inflation continuing to decline. This is the second report 284 00:17:27,080 --> 00:17:27,960 Speaker 1: we've gotten this week. 285 00:17:27,960 --> 00:17:29,680 Speaker 4: Cut for this is the second day in a row 286 00:17:29,760 --> 00:17:33,560 Speaker 4: we're getting some encouraging news on the cost of living. 287 00:17:33,840 --> 00:17:36,520 Speaker 4: So we're talking about the producer price index. This is 288 00:17:36,640 --> 00:17:38,359 Speaker 4: whole cell inflation before it gets to all of us 289 00:17:38,400 --> 00:17:41,600 Speaker 4: as consumers, and we were expecting an increase in prices 290 00:17:41,640 --> 00:17:43,239 Speaker 4: month over month. We did not get that. We got 291 00:17:43,280 --> 00:17:45,919 Speaker 4: a drop in prices. Look at this point four percent. 292 00:17:46,160 --> 00:17:49,760 Speaker 4: That is much better than anticipating the annual rate. We 293 00:17:49,760 --> 00:17:52,359 Speaker 4: were anticipating around three point three percent. We did not 294 00:17:52,400 --> 00:17:54,720 Speaker 4: get that. We got a much lower number two point 295 00:17:54,840 --> 00:17:58,000 Speaker 4: seven percent. This is a deceleration. And when we look 296 00:17:58,000 --> 00:18:00,879 Speaker 4: at the trend, we can see that things have certainly 297 00:18:00,880 --> 00:18:03,080 Speaker 4: improved from a few years ago. When it comes to inflation. 298 00:18:03,680 --> 00:18:07,520 Speaker 1: Okay, things have improved. That is CNN. Okay, that's what 299 00:18:07,640 --> 00:18:11,040 Speaker 1: CNN telling in their audience. Here is CNBC. These are 300 00:18:11,040 --> 00:18:14,439 Speaker 1: not super pro Trump networks discussing what I'm telling you, 301 00:18:14,600 --> 00:18:16,480 Speaker 1: which are cost or going down? Cut five. 302 00:18:16,600 --> 00:18:19,760 Speaker 5: These are our March read on producer price Index, the 303 00:18:19,840 --> 00:18:23,120 Speaker 5: more Whosts sales side of the inflation equation, and they're 304 00:18:23,160 --> 00:18:27,840 Speaker 5: big numbers. Down four tenths on headline, down four tenths. 305 00:18:27,960 --> 00:18:30,920 Speaker 5: That would be equal to where we were in October 306 00:18:31,000 --> 00:18:34,160 Speaker 5: of twenty three. And if we find the lower number, 307 00:18:34,200 --> 00:18:36,040 Speaker 5: you're going all the way back to April of twenty 308 00:18:36,160 --> 00:18:39,360 Speaker 5: twenty and the COVID affected era, and that was down 309 00:18:39,400 --> 00:18:40,600 Speaker 5: one point two percent. 310 00:18:41,359 --> 00:18:45,360 Speaker 1: So good numbers, great numbers, even when it comes to 311 00:18:45,400 --> 00:18:48,600 Speaker 1: what things are costing. Coming directly out of your pocketbook 312 00:18:48,720 --> 00:18:52,080 Speaker 1: to a large extent, gas and groceries.

It seems again that we 340 00:20:18,359 --> 00:20:22,600 Speaker 1: have gotten a little bit of the universe out there 341 00:20:22,800 --> 00:20:26,280 Speaker 1: used to what is going on, and I wanted to 342 00:20:26,280 --> 00:20:31,880 Speaker 1: make sure that you also understand that they still have 343 00:20:32,040 --> 00:20:35,439 Speaker 1: the exact same playbook that they've been trying for a 344 00:20:35,480 --> 00:20:40,960 Speaker 1: decade now, and that decade worth of playbook is that 345 00:20:41,000 --> 00:20:43,679 Speaker 1: they are going to try to still tell you that 346 00:20:43,800 --> 00:20:46,240 Speaker 1: Donald Trump is hitler. You know, yesterday we had a 347 00:20:46,280 --> 00:20:49,199 Speaker 1: really good conversation, I thought, and I encourage you to 348 00:20:49,200 --> 00:20:52,600 Speaker 1: go check it out with Douglas Murray, and he was 349 00:20:52,640 --> 00:20:56,400 Speaker 1: talking about on democracies and death cults and the overall 350 00:20:56,520 --> 00:21:00,560 Speaker 1: impact of the lies that have been told to so 351 00:21:00,600 --> 00:21:05,440 Speaker 1: many of our school kids, and the historical illiteracy that 352 00:21:05,440 --> 00:21:11,280 Speaker 1: that breeds such that really there's only one historical analogy 353 00:21:11,359 --> 00:21:15,240 Speaker 1: that most people can even make, and it is everything 354 00:21:15,280 --> 00:21:19,160 Speaker 1: relates to World War Two, and Trump is Hitler. Whoever 355 00:21:19,280 --> 00:21:25,080 Speaker 1: you don't like in politics is Hitler, And you sit 356 00:21:25,200 --> 00:21:28,040 Speaker 1: back and you recognize. For somebody like me who's a 357 00:21:28,119 --> 00:21:33,119 Speaker 1: history nerd and loves studying American history. We're about to 358 00:21:33,119 --> 00:21:35,679 Speaker 1: have the two hundred and fiftieth anniversary of the country 359 00:21:35,720 --> 00:21:37,680 Speaker 1: next year, a party, by the way, that Trump is 360 00:21:37,720 --> 00:21:40,800 Speaker 1: going to throw and should be amazing. But we've got 361 00:21:40,840 --> 00:21:44,720 Speaker 1: two hundred and fifty years worth of American history to 362 00:21:44,800 --> 00:21:49,880 Speaker 1: go draw historical analogies from. Yet, by and large, the 363 00:21:49,960 --> 00:21:53,840 Speaker 1: only historical analogy that anybody can connect to is World 364 00:21:53,880 --> 00:21:57,280 Speaker 1: War Two. Everything that happens is seen through the prism 365 00:21:57,320 --> 00:21:59,439 Speaker 1: of World War Two. If you think about Ukraine, what 366 00:21:59,480 --> 00:22:03,440 Speaker 1: did they say of Vladimir Putin? Is Hitler really? Is 367 00:22:03,480 --> 00:22:07,800 Speaker 1: he going to really invade multiple European countries and move 368 00:22:07,840 --> 00:22:10,680 Speaker 1: beyond Ukraine and start a World war? That feels very 369 00:22:10,720 --> 00:22:14,720 Speaker 1: unlikely to me, particularly because he can't even take over Ukraine. 370 00:22:15,440 --> 00:22:19,359 Speaker 1: Just from a historical and in knowledge, the Blitzgreek was 371 00:22:19,359 --> 00:22:24,320 Speaker 1: pretty effective, right. Hitler swept right through Europe very rapidly, 372 00:22:25,000 --> 00:22:27,360 Speaker 1: and the only reason that he didn't take over Great 373 00:22:27,400 --> 00:22:30,800 Speaker 1: Britain was because of the English Channel and because of 374 00:22:30,840 --> 00:22:34,399 Speaker 1: the incredible bravery of the average British person to go 375 00:22:34,560 --> 00:22:38,560 Speaker 1: rescue the British Army at Dunkirk, which I would argue 376 00:22:38,840 --> 00:22:44,760 Speaker 1: is maybe the coolest, maybe the most impressive moment almost 377 00:22:44,760 --> 00:22:49,760 Speaker 1: in Western history if you think about saving Western civilization 378 00:22:49,920 --> 00:22:52,760 Speaker 1: from the nazis the fact that they got on the 379 00:22:52,840 --> 00:22:56,480 Speaker 1: radio go study this. Nobody ever talks about it, by 380 00:22:56,560 --> 00:22:59,240 Speaker 1: and large, the fact that they got on the radio 381 00:22:59,320 --> 00:23:01,840 Speaker 1: and they said to everybody in England, hey, if you 382 00:23:02,040 --> 00:23:05,879 Speaker 1: have a boat, can you go rescue the British Army 383 00:23:06,359 --> 00:23:11,520 Speaker 1: and they did it. The museum I've had the good 384 00:23:11,560 --> 00:23:13,640 Speaker 1: fortune as a history nerd to be able to go 385 00:23:14,240 --> 00:23:18,760 Speaker 1: the Royal Museum in London focused on World War Two, 386 00:23:18,800 --> 00:23:21,199 Speaker 1: and I'm not sure exactly what the name of that 387 00:23:21,320 --> 00:23:23,840 Speaker 1: museum is. See if the team in there can let 388 00:23:23,840 --> 00:23:25,680 Speaker 1: me know what the name of that museum is, because 389 00:23:25,720 --> 00:23:29,040 Speaker 1: it is pretty incredible. There's the Churchill War Rooms, which 390 00:23:29,080 --> 00:23:32,000 Speaker 1: is one of the coolest history tours that I think 391 00:23:32,000 --> 00:23:34,480 Speaker 1: you can do. It looks the exact same It's where 392 00:23:34,520 --> 00:23:39,120 Speaker 1: Winston Churchill was in London underground, where they managed the 393 00:23:39,160 --> 00:23:42,360 Speaker 1: war and they still have all the maps on the walls. 394 00:23:42,720 --> 00:23:45,640 Speaker 1: It looks the exact same they basically left there when 395 00:23:45,680 --> 00:23:49,080 Speaker 1: they had the victory celebration and they have recreated it. 396 00:23:49,160 --> 00:23:51,760 Speaker 1: You can see the cots that Winston Churchill was sleeping in. 397 00:23:51,840 --> 00:23:54,919 Speaker 1: It's incredible, one of the coolest history things you can do. 398 00:23:54,960 --> 00:23:57,399 Speaker 1: I've talked about this before. I've gotten to go to 399 00:23:57,600 --> 00:24:02,040 Speaker 1: the battle fields all over France where you can see 400 00:24:02,080 --> 00:24:04,760 Speaker 1: and walk those beaches and see still so many of 401 00:24:04,800 --> 00:24:08,720 Speaker 1: the German pillboxes. It looks almost identical to eighty years ago. 402 00:24:09,400 --> 00:24:13,560 Speaker 1: But when you go to that British Museum, they have 403 00:24:13,800 --> 00:24:17,440 Speaker 1: some of the boats that went out to go rescue 404 00:24:17,480 --> 00:24:23,240 Speaker 1: British soldiers. Some of them are basically rowboats. Everybody who 405 00:24:23,280 --> 00:24:28,919 Speaker 1: had a boat just went to Dunkirk and rescued the 406 00:24:29,119 --> 00:24:32,440 Speaker 1: entirety of the British Army to allow them to even 407 00:24:32,520 --> 00:24:37,640 Speaker 1: continue that war. The expectation was from Hitler's team, we're 408 00:24:37,680 --> 00:24:41,040 Speaker 1: basically defeating not only the French, but we are eliminating 409 00:24:41,400 --> 00:24:45,080 Speaker 1: the entire British Army. They were saved, and then some 410 00:24:45,160 --> 00:24:48,679 Speaker 1: of those same soldiers ended up coming back across on 411 00:24:48,720 --> 00:24:52,680 Speaker 1: the shore on D Day to come back and liberate France. 412 00:24:53,359 --> 00:24:55,879 Speaker 1: And so when you get to see some of those boats, 413 00:24:55,880 --> 00:24:59,080 Speaker 1: that's maybe the most incredible thing that is out there. 414 00:25:00,840 --> 00:25:04,359 Speaker 1: And it is just it's an incredible experience to be 415 00:25:04,440 --> 00:25:07,720 Speaker 1: able to go see that. Well, they don't take any 416 00:25:07,800 --> 00:25:11,000 Speaker 1: of the super positive lessons by and large of Hey, 417 00:25:11,000 --> 00:25:13,600 Speaker 1: this is what a country can do when everybody comes 418 00:25:13,600 --> 00:25:17,760 Speaker 1: together and everybody puts their actual lives on the line 419 00:25:18,200 --> 00:25:22,600 Speaker 1: to go get in their private ships and frankly rowboats 420 00:25:22,640 --> 00:25:24,960 Speaker 1: almost and go and get some of these guys. And 421 00:25:24,960 --> 00:25:26,680 Speaker 1: again you can see the boats and you're like, man, 422 00:25:26,920 --> 00:25:29,040 Speaker 1: I can't even believe they were picking up soldiers in 423 00:25:29,080 --> 00:25:31,920 Speaker 1: these guys were coming in. That's how fearless they were 424 00:25:31,960 --> 00:25:34,880 Speaker 1: to stand up. That's everybody pulling together. That story doesn't 425 00:25:34,880 --> 00:25:38,959 Speaker 1: get told very often. Instead, what they try to say is, okay, 426 00:25:39,040 --> 00:25:41,280 Speaker 1: anybody who I disagree with is Hitler. And we were 427 00:25:41,280 --> 00:25:43,280 Speaker 1: talking with Douglas Murray about this, and again, this is 428 00:25:43,320 --> 00:25:46,240 Speaker 1: why historical literacy matters and why I was glad to 429 00:25:46,240 --> 00:25:50,240 Speaker 1: get to go to Israel in December. Trump is more 430 00:25:50,280 --> 00:25:55,159 Speaker 1: popular in Israel than he is in Wyoming than he 431 00:25:55,320 --> 00:25:58,560 Speaker 1: is in West Virginia, which I believe were the two 432 00:25:58,720 --> 00:26:02,280 Speaker 1: states that we're the most supportive of Trump in the 433 00:26:02,280 --> 00:26:06,399 Speaker 1: most recent election. I don't think Hitler would be super 434 00:26:06,400 --> 00:26:10,159 Speaker 1: popular today in Israel, right, So this is so historically 435 00:26:10,200 --> 00:26:14,280 Speaker 1: illiterate on the analogy, but also even in the modern day, 436 00:26:15,000 --> 00:26:20,440 Speaker 1: Trump is probably the most popular American president in our lives, 437 00:26:21,080 --> 00:26:24,040 Speaker 1: in the actual country of Israel, which is filled with 438 00:26:24,160 --> 00:26:26,520 Speaker 1: tons of Jewish people whose lives are on the line 439 00:26:26,560 --> 00:26:29,040 Speaker 1: every single day because of what happened on October seventh. 440 00:26:29,680 --> 00:26:33,400 Speaker 1: But they are still trying to make the argument, Hey, 441 00:26:33,960 --> 00:26:36,520 Speaker 1: can we just have a president who's not Hitler? I 442 00:26:36,560 --> 00:26:38,800 Speaker 1: think it's important for you to understand. They have one 443 00:26:38,840 --> 00:26:40,800 Speaker 1: note and they keep hitting it again and again. This 444 00:26:40,840 --> 00:26:43,280 Speaker 1: is supposed to be comedy. This is The Daily Show 445 00:26:43,359 --> 00:26:46,560 Speaker 1: yesterday saying cut twenty seven. Is it too much to 446 00:26:46,680 --> 00:26:49,120 Speaker 1: ask for a president who's not Hitler? 447 00:26:49,880 --> 00:26:52,920 Speaker 6: Ninety five of these executive orders are about punishing people 448 00:26:52,960 --> 00:26:55,760 Speaker 6: who are just disagree with him. So I'm fine with 449 00:26:55,920 --> 00:26:59,560 Speaker 6: side quest Trump. Okay, would you go up to Hitler 450 00:26:59,640 --> 00:27:01,480 Speaker 6: and be like, why are you painting? You've got work 451 00:27:01,480 --> 00:27:05,679 Speaker 6: to do. Is it too much to ask for a 452 00:27:05,720 --> 00:27:11,199 Speaker 6: president who's not Hitler? Yes, apparently it is, So just 453 00:27:11,280 --> 00:27:14,080 Speaker 6: focus on the winds yes, he's putting Dora the Exploor 454 00:27:14,160 --> 00:27:17,320 Speaker 6: on a flight to El Salvador. Okay, but he's declared 455 00:27:17,560 --> 00:27:21,320 Speaker 6: that anyone on the flight who asks for a soda has. 456 00:27:21,160 --> 00:27:26,040 Speaker 1: To get a whole can. Okay. So Trump is hitler haa, look, 457 00:27:26,080 --> 00:27:30,520 Speaker 1: how funny it is. The whole crowd roars. But he's 458 00:27:30,560 --> 00:27:33,520 Speaker 1: actually the most popular president in the history of Israel, 459 00:27:34,359 --> 00:27:36,840 Speaker 1: and the Jewish people there would vote for him by 460 00:27:37,119 --> 00:27:40,960 Speaker 1: margins that are similar to West Virginia and Wyoming. Isn't 461 00:27:40,960 --> 00:27:44,479 Speaker 1: that kind of a significant factor. And if we're going 462 00:27:44,520 --> 00:27:49,240 Speaker 1: to use only World War Two as the entire historical 463 00:27:49,359 --> 00:27:53,480 Speaker 1: record to try to analogize to everything, it reminds me 464 00:27:54,240 --> 00:27:55,919 Speaker 1: of when I was in school. Do you ever have 465 00:27:56,040 --> 00:27:59,560 Speaker 1: one friend or maybe multiple friends, or maybe it was 466 00:27:59,600 --> 00:28:03,720 Speaker 1: you who didn't do the actual school readings. You'd get 467 00:28:03,720 --> 00:28:06,560 Speaker 1: the old cliff notes, the spark notes, whatever is called. 468 00:28:07,200 --> 00:28:10,000 Speaker 1: Most of the time, I loved I'm a nerd. I 469 00:28:10,040 --> 00:28:12,760 Speaker 1: read all the books, you know, cover to cover. I 470 00:28:12,760 --> 00:28:15,960 Speaker 1: think i'd never skipped assigned reading because I love to 471 00:28:16,000 --> 00:28:19,320 Speaker 1: read nerd and I love history. I know nerd. But 472 00:28:19,760 --> 00:28:24,040 Speaker 1: I had a buddy who never read. He read one 473 00:28:24,080 --> 00:28:26,800 Speaker 1: book that we were assigned like the whole time we 474 00:28:26,800 --> 00:28:29,440 Speaker 1: were in school, and it was Lord of the Flies, 475 00:28:29,960 --> 00:28:32,760 Speaker 1: Remember the Lord of the Flies. And as a result, 476 00:28:32,840 --> 00:28:35,200 Speaker 1: because he had only read one book in his life, 477 00:28:35,760 --> 00:28:39,480 Speaker 1: he would analogize everything that happened to Lord of the Flies. 478 00:28:39,960 --> 00:28:43,760 Speaker 1: He had one pop culture book that he'd ever read. 479 00:28:44,360 --> 00:28:47,400 Speaker 1: Everything reminded him of what happened to Lord of the 480 00:28:47,400 --> 00:28:50,400 Speaker 1: Flies because he was so poorly read that he had 481 00:28:50,440 --> 00:28:56,680 Speaker 1: no other analogies to draw. That's Democrats with Trump. They're 482 00:28:56,840 --> 00:29:00,880 Speaker 1: so historically illiterate that they have such a lack of 483 00:29:00,920 --> 00:29:05,000 Speaker 1: foundational knowledge that no matter what happens, it draws them 484 00:29:05,040 --> 00:29:08,280 Speaker 1: back to Trump is Hitler. It is the black hole 485 00:29:08,360 --> 00:29:13,040 Speaker 1: from which they cannot escape. And yet that analogy is 486 00:29:13,080 --> 00:29:16,640 Speaker 1: completely broken, And the fact that has been going on 487 00:29:16,760 --> 00:29:21,480 Speaker 1: for a decade is maybe the most dishonest example of 488 00:29:21,520 --> 00:29:25,080 Speaker 1: how Trump has been covered, the fact that that is 489 00:29:25,200 --> 00:29:30,600 Speaker 1: where unceasingly, no matter what's going on, they eventually get 490 00:29:30,680 --> 00:29:33,400 Speaker 1: drawn back to the black hole of Trump is Hitler, 491 00:29:33,680 --> 00:29:37,240 Speaker 1: because they're like my buddy who only read one book, 492 00:29:37,520 --> 00:29:41,640 Speaker 1: and therefore everything that he saw was something that happened 493 00:29:41,680 --> 00:29:43,360 Speaker 1: in Lord of the Flies. By the way, not a 494 00:29:43,360 --> 00:29:46,040 Speaker 1: bad book, but you should read more than one book, 495 00:29:46,440 --> 00:29:48,760 Speaker 1: and you should study more than one time in history. 496 00:29:48,960 --> 00:29:52,320 Speaker 1: There's two hundred and fifty years of America. But by 497 00:29:52,360 --> 00:29:54,600 Speaker 1: the way, you could make a historical analogy. I know 498 00:29:54,640 --> 00:29:59,440 Speaker 1: this is crazy to something that happened outside of the 499 00:29:59,560 --> 00:30:02,320 Speaker 1: United State of America, because the great great thing about 500 00:30:02,360 --> 00:30:06,760 Speaker 1: our country is, thankfully our founders were not historically illiterate. 501 00:30:07,640 --> 00:30:09,800 Speaker 1: The reason we have the government that we have today 502 00:30:10,280 --> 00:30:16,240 Speaker 1: is because they studied all of recorded history, saw the pratfalls, 503 00:30:16,960 --> 00:30:20,240 Speaker 1: the errors that different countries had that were when they 504 00:30:20,240 --> 00:30:24,440 Speaker 1: were founded, and tried to build a framework that would 505 00:30:24,520 --> 00:30:29,280 Speaker 1: withstand the past challenges of time. They built up on 506 00:30:30,240 --> 00:30:35,160 Speaker 1: prior history to try to create something new. So thankfully 507 00:30:35,600 --> 00:30:40,280 Speaker 1: our founding fathers actually read more than one book and 508 00:30:40,440 --> 00:30:44,800 Speaker 1: actually were well versed on something other than one particular 509 00:30:44,840 --> 00:30:47,240 Speaker 1: aspect of history. But I do think it's important when 510 00:30:47,240 --> 00:30:49,840 Speaker 1: you hear that note getting hit again and again, it's 511 00:30:49,880 --> 00:30:54,400 Speaker 1: not only that it's untrue and unsound, it's that also 512 00:30:54,840 --> 00:30:59,320 Speaker 1: it is indicative of profound historical illiteracy, because the actual 513 00:30:59,440 --> 00:31:03,080 Speaker 1: study of that point in time is not the lesson 514 00:31:03,080 --> 00:31:06,080 Speaker 1: that's even being applied accurately. It's like my buddy in 515 00:31:06,160 --> 00:31:09,000 Speaker 1: school who read one book and everything reminded him of 516 00:31:09,040 --> 00:31:11,560 Speaker 1: Lord of the Flies. That's Democrats today. Look, if you 517 00:31:11,560 --> 00:31:13,800 Speaker 1: own a firearm, by the way, we're going to take 518 00:31:13,800 --> 00:31:16,720 Speaker 1: some calls.

In London, Dennis, I spent the day there. 584 00:35:04,600 --> 00:35:06,360 Speaker 1: I should have remembered the name, but you got it 585 00:35:06,400 --> 00:35:09,200 Speaker 1: for us. What am I talking about? I think it's Clay. 586 00:35:09,280 --> 00:35:11,680 Speaker 1: I think you're talking about the Imperial War Museum. That's 587 00:35:11,719 --> 00:35:16,480 Speaker 1: exactly right. And then you've got Churchill's Cabinet War Rooms. 588 00:35:16,560 --> 00:35:19,600 Speaker 1: That's right, that's separate. Those are two different places. Have 589 00:35:19,680 --> 00:35:21,839 Speaker 1: you been to both as well? Dennis?

I spent a ton 594 00:35:38,080 --> 00:35:40,799 Speaker 1: of time there. I think seeing those ships that they 595 00:35:40,800 --> 00:35:44,520 Speaker 1: put the British soldiers in at Dunkirk in person, it's 596 00:35:44,560 --> 00:35:48,040 Speaker 1: life changing. I mean, it's just ennobling to know how 597 00:35:48,120 --> 00:35:50,480 Speaker 1: brave people have been in the past to stand for 598 00:35:50,520 --> 00:35:53,360 Speaker 1: their country and be willing to put their lives on 599 00:35:53,400 --> 00:35:57,000 Speaker 1: the line as civilians to ensure that tyranny doesn't win. 600 00:35:58,400 --> 00:36:00,480 Speaker 1: I mean, you don't have to be British to be 601 00:36:00,560 --> 00:36:04,799 Speaker 1: inspired by bravery from the Brits. And they were incredibly 602 00:36:04,840 --> 00:36:07,160 Speaker 1: brave in the way that they responded to that, and 603 00:36:07,200 --> 00:36:10,080 Speaker 1: frankly in the way that they responded to the bombings 604 00:36:10,080 --> 00:36:12,080 Speaker 1: that went on in London. If you want to read 605 00:36:12,719 --> 00:36:17,480 Speaker 1: great stories about just incredible civilian bravery what they withstood 606 00:36:17,560 --> 00:36:21,120 Speaker 1: to avoid agreeing to a peace deal with Hitler. Hitler 607 00:36:21,160 --> 00:36:24,040 Speaker 1: didn't think that they could handle the British blitzkrieg of 608 00:36:24,120 --> 00:36:26,920 Speaker 1: bombing that they put up on them, and they did. 609 00:36:27,400 --> 00:36:29,480 Speaker 1: And I think it's the Churchill's right there, one of 610 00:36:29,480 --> 00:36:33,760 Speaker 1: the greatest moments in the history of Western civilization. Ellen 611 00:36:33,800 --> 00:36:36,640 Speaker 1: and martin Burg, Martinsburg, West Virginia. 612 00:36:36,680 --> 00:36:39,840 Speaker 6: What you got, Hike Clay love your show? 613 00:36:40,320 --> 00:36:41,480 Speaker 1: Martinsburg, West Virginia. 614 00:36:41,560 --> 00:36:42,400 Speaker 6: Hey, what were you. 615 00:36:42,239 --> 00:36:46,320 Speaker 2: You were saying for Wyoming and West Virginia are trouble 616 00:36:46,440 --> 00:36:47,480 Speaker 2: spots for Trump? 617 00:36:47,640 --> 00:36:51,759 Speaker 1: No, no, no, I appreciate you calling and listening. I 618 00:36:51,800 --> 00:36:54,000 Speaker 1: don't I don't think I said that. What I said 619 00:36:54,160 --> 00:36:57,040 Speaker 1: was no states in America loved Trump more than West 620 00:36:57,120 --> 00:37:01,440 Speaker 1: Virginia and Wyoming. They voted for Trump roughly seventy thirty. 621 00:37:01,880 --> 00:37:04,279 Speaker 1: I am saying something that I don't think gets talked 622 00:37:04,280 --> 00:37:09,360 Speaker 1: about enough. If Israel, the country of Israel, could vote 623 00:37:09,440 --> 00:37:14,000 Speaker 1: for President of the United States, Israel would have voted 624 00:37:14,080 --> 00:37:19,439 Speaker 1: for Trump by a margin like West Virginia and Wyoming did. 625 00:37:19,640 --> 00:37:24,480 Speaker 1: In other words, Israel as a country would be diehard 626 00:37:24,600 --> 00:37:28,920 Speaker 1: Trump country, just like West Virginia is and just like 627 00:37:29,000 --> 00:37:32,879 Speaker 1: Wyoming is. It would be among the Trumpiest of all 628 00:37:32,960 --> 00:37:36,319 Speaker 1: the states, which nobody talks about. By the way, I 629 00:37:36,320 --> 00:37:38,880 Speaker 1: don't think Hitler would get seventy percent of the vote 630 00:37:39,000 --> 00:37:41,960 Speaker 1: in Israel. Just tossing it out there. When we come back, 631 00:37:42,040 --> 00:37:46,280 Speaker 1: Larry Kudlow for the absolute latest on the tariff wors, 632 00:37:46,400 --> 00:37:49,480 Speaker 1: their impact, and what you need to know.
