1
00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:03,360
Speaker 1: Welcome to today's edition of The Clay Travis and Buck

2
00:00:03,400 --> 00:00:04,720
Speaker 1: Sexton Show podcast.

3
00:00:05,080 --> 00:00:09,240
Speaker 2: Second hour Clay and Trump kicks off today, which is,

4
00:00:09,320 --> 00:00:11,600
Speaker 2: of course, you just said Clay and Trump, which is

5
00:00:11,640 --> 00:00:16,040
Speaker 2: an unbelievable Uh. I'm sorry, I was looking. I was

6
00:00:16,079 --> 00:00:18,799
Speaker 2: looking at a photo of Trump as a talking I'm sorry,

7
00:00:18,960 --> 00:00:22,920
Speaker 2: Clay and Buck. There's so much for your claim, so

8
00:00:23,000 --> 00:00:26,880
Speaker 2: much for your claimed lack of endorsement. Some people are.

9
00:00:26,800 --> 00:00:29,720
Speaker 3: Saying, the best hair in the world two guys, two

10
00:00:29,760 --> 00:00:32,559
Speaker 3: guys named Trump and Buck. We'll throw Clay in there

11
00:00:32,560 --> 00:00:36,800
Speaker 3: to three guys. Amazing hair, probably like the best hair

12
00:00:36,840 --> 00:00:39,199
Speaker 3: you've ever seen. No, seriously, though, sorry I didn't I

13
00:00:39,240 --> 00:00:41,080
Speaker 3: met Clay and Buck. That is a show you're listening to.

14
00:00:41,240 --> 00:00:43,200
Speaker 2: I was looking at a photo of Trump, though, because

15
00:00:43,200 --> 00:00:45,959
Speaker 2: here's what we've got, here's what we've got going on.

16
00:00:46,800 --> 00:00:48,559
Speaker 2: I don't know when the last time was that I

17
00:00:48,640 --> 00:00:52,320
Speaker 2: would cite unless it was to make sheer mockery of it.

18
00:00:52,960 --> 00:00:56,760
Speaker 2: A New York Times opinion column on this show, because

19
00:00:56,800 --> 00:01:02,200
Speaker 2: generally seven hundred word form. But former Republican, I think

20
00:01:02,240 --> 00:01:04,960
Speaker 2: he's now an independent. I don't know, you know, whatever

21
00:01:04,959 --> 00:01:06,840
Speaker 2: you got to do to keep jobs at these places,

22
00:01:06,840 --> 00:01:09,360
Speaker 2: that don't allow Republicans. This is what people do now, right.

23
00:01:09,400 --> 00:01:13,039
Speaker 2: I think technically Joe Scarborough is an independent at MSNBC.

24
00:01:13,319 --> 00:01:17,479
Speaker 2: Sure is. I think Brett Stevens, I think he's an independent.

25
00:01:17,520 --> 00:01:20,199
Speaker 2: I don't know if he's changed from Republican. That's neither

26
00:01:20,200 --> 00:01:23,640
Speaker 2: here nor there. He wrote a piece. Now he is

27
00:01:23,720 --> 00:01:29,839
Speaker 2: somebody whose job, in my opinion, is to generally try

28
00:01:29,880 --> 00:01:36,560
Speaker 2: to gently inform the Democrat leftist lunatics about what some

29
00:01:36,600 --> 00:01:39,880
Speaker 2: people on the right think, while always saying and they're

30
00:01:39,920 --> 00:01:41,680
Speaker 2: so bad. I mean, the right is just you know,

31
00:01:41,720 --> 00:01:43,560
Speaker 2: they're they're really bad. But I'm here to sort of

32
00:01:43,760 --> 00:01:47,559
Speaker 2: translate right wing stuff for you. He's written this piece

33
00:01:48,240 --> 00:01:52,600
Speaker 2: the case for Trump, by someone who wants him to lose,

34
00:01:53,680 --> 00:01:55,560
Speaker 2: and let me I'll make this. I'll make this quick.

35
00:01:55,600 --> 00:01:56,800
Speaker 2: So I want to get I want to get to

36
00:01:57,080 --> 00:01:59,360
Speaker 2: some mc clay's reaction on this, because obviously it goes

37
00:01:59,360 --> 00:02:02,640
Speaker 2: on for quite some time. The basic case is this

38
00:02:03,200 --> 00:02:07,480
Speaker 2: Democrats just don't believe that this is happening. But he says,

39
00:02:07,880 --> 00:02:10,320
Speaker 2: and this is this is a line directly from the piece.

40
00:02:10,400 --> 00:02:12,160
Speaker 2: Hold on a second, where to of course, now my

41
00:02:12,200 --> 00:02:15,360
Speaker 2: computer is frozen. But he says that unless there's some

42
00:02:15,480 --> 00:02:19,720
Speaker 2: kind of a miracle. Donald Trump is going to win,

43
00:02:19,880 --> 00:02:22,200
Speaker 2: he says, barring a political mural or an active god,

44
00:02:22,240 --> 00:02:25,200
Speaker 2: a miracle or an active god, it is overwhelmingly likely

45
00:02:25,280 --> 00:02:28,080
Speaker 2: Donald Trump will again be the Republican Party's nominee for president.

46
00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:31,000
Speaker 2: So he's saying, look, Trump's gonna win the GOP nomination.

47
00:02:31,120 --> 00:02:34,840
Speaker 2: This is This is Brett Stevens, who is sort of

48
00:02:35,560 --> 00:02:37,519
Speaker 2: sort of a Republican I think, I don't know whatever,

49
00:02:37,919 --> 00:02:40,040
Speaker 2: but he says this play and this is I think

50
00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:43,600
Speaker 2: this analysis is in general spot on, although he has

51
00:02:43,720 --> 00:02:45,560
Speaker 2: to soft pedal a little bit with like, I know

52
00:02:45,600 --> 00:02:49,440
Speaker 2: there's bad things about Trump. He says, the single most

53
00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:52,160
Speaker 2: important geopolitical fact of the last century. This is Point

54
00:02:52,160 --> 00:02:55,360
Speaker 2: one is the migration of people from south to north

55
00:02:55,360 --> 00:02:59,160
Speaker 2: and east to west, causing tectonic demographic, cultural, economic, and

56
00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:03,679
Speaker 2: political shift. Is Stevens writing, Trump gets this so on

57
00:03:03,919 --> 00:03:08,079
Speaker 2: mass illegal immigration, Trump is right, the elites are out

58
00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:11,440
Speaker 2: of their minds. Point two. When liberal elites insist things

59
00:03:11,440 --> 00:03:14,400
Speaker 2: are going well, you look at all the data. It's

60
00:03:14,440 --> 00:03:16,200
Speaker 2: going well for them. It's not going well for the

61
00:03:16,200 --> 00:03:18,919
Speaker 2: whole middle section of the country. I don't mean that geographically.

62
00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:23,280
Speaker 2: I mean that economically, the middle class that Democrats pretend

63
00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:26,520
Speaker 2: to care about. Trump's right about that, and point three

64
00:03:26,760 --> 00:03:32,000
Speaker 2: institutions have failed. He is right about the failure of

65
00:03:32,040 --> 00:03:35,760
Speaker 2: the CDC, failure of the FBI, failure of the CIA,

66
00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:42,160
Speaker 2: failure of the media and journalism. And he's saying leftists Democrats,

67
00:03:42,160 --> 00:03:44,240
Speaker 2: he doesn't call them leftist obviously. To Clay, he says,

68
00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:47,440
Speaker 2: if Democrats don't wake up to these realities, they may

69
00:03:47,480 --> 00:03:50,760
Speaker 2: wake up to an even more terrifying reality right after

70
00:03:50,840 --> 00:03:53,800
Speaker 2: election day. So he's diagnosing the problem, which is that

71
00:03:54,080 --> 00:03:57,040
Speaker 2: Democrat party is living in a delusion. They're wrong on

72
00:03:57,120 --> 00:03:59,160
Speaker 2: these things, and Trump is right on these things.

73
00:03:59,720 --> 00:04:02,800
Speaker 4: Yeah, and I thought it was an interesting piece because

74
00:04:02,920 --> 00:04:05,920
Speaker 4: not necessarily for you and me and some of our

75
00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:09,160
Speaker 4: listenership out there who might have read it. But I

76
00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:12,440
Speaker 4: try to think about what the New York Times readership

77
00:04:12,520 --> 00:04:14,840
Speaker 4: would think of this, which is why, to your point,

78
00:04:14,880 --> 00:04:17,960
Speaker 4: he has to catch this as the headline is I'm

79
00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:19,600
Speaker 4: not supporting Trump.

80
00:04:19,640 --> 00:04:21,000
Speaker 2: But here what's the headline again?

81
00:04:21,080 --> 00:04:24,080
Speaker 4: And it's even an interesting way that you have to

82
00:04:24,200 --> 00:04:27,560
Speaker 4: almost be able to have this conversation with their audience.

83
00:04:27,560 --> 00:04:28,840
Speaker 2: Well, so this is what I mean, This is why

84
00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:30,520
Speaker 2: it's so instant that you're right. I mean, he's the

85
00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:33,640
Speaker 2: case for Trump by someone who wants him to lose,

86
00:04:33,880 --> 00:04:38,520
Speaker 2: And so I'm I'm sifting through everything. He's like, look, look, yes,

87
00:04:38,720 --> 00:04:42,680
Speaker 2: is Trump of Vulgarian and you know election Denarira. But

88
00:04:42,800 --> 00:04:45,240
Speaker 2: he's kind of totally right about immigration, and you guys

89
00:04:45,279 --> 00:04:48,279
Speaker 2: need to wake up. And yes, is he mean about

90
00:04:48,320 --> 00:04:50,760
Speaker 2: Fauci or whatever? You know, that's a whole other conversation.

91
00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:53,520
Speaker 2: But does he mean about some of our institutions? But

92
00:04:53,640 --> 00:04:55,720
Speaker 2: he's right about them, and you guys need to wake up.

93
00:04:55,839 --> 00:05:00,960
Speaker 2: Like I think he's preparing the Democrats for the reality

94
00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:03,080
Speaker 2: that they're in for a whole heck of a lot

95
00:05:03,160 --> 00:05:05,960
Speaker 2: tougher fight in this election that they anticipated. All this

96
00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:09,040
Speaker 2: legal crap is not. All the legal assault stuff they're

97
00:05:09,040 --> 00:05:09,600
Speaker 2: doing is not.

98
00:05:09,520 --> 00:05:13,039
Speaker 4: Working, no, And I think that a lot of them

99
00:05:13,080 --> 00:05:15,720
Speaker 4: still haven't recognized it, which is why you have to

100
00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:20,960
Speaker 4: talk to them as if they are very misinformed and uninformed.

101
00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:23,720
Speaker 4: And I think this is important in general as you

102
00:05:23,760 --> 00:05:25,920
Speaker 4: think about the way that the twenty twenty four election

103
00:05:26,040 --> 00:05:30,360
Speaker 4: is going to be covered. It is impossible for everyone

104
00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:33,679
Speaker 4: out there listening to us right now not to be

105
00:05:33,960 --> 00:05:39,560
Speaker 4: immersed in Democrat Party talking points because the overall media

106
00:05:39,839 --> 00:05:43,080
Speaker 4: leans so far to the left that even if you

107
00:05:43,240 --> 00:05:46,240
Speaker 4: are a died in the wool Trump supporter, Iron DeSantis

108
00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:48,840
Speaker 4: or Niki Haley or veg Garamaswami, whoever you're going to

109
00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:52,000
Speaker 4: go support today in Iowa and in the future primaries

110
00:05:52,080 --> 00:05:57,560
Speaker 4: in your state, even the talking points of people on

111
00:05:57,600 --> 00:06:01,040
Speaker 4: the right who are running for president are very cognizant

112
00:06:01,040 --> 00:06:03,159
Speaker 4: of all the arguments that are being made on the left.

113
00:06:03,920 --> 00:06:07,240
Speaker 4: The left is not very knowledgeable about what's actually said

114
00:06:07,279 --> 00:06:11,400
Speaker 4: on the right because they're dominant in so many different

115
00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:17,440
Speaker 4: aspects of the media industry that they don't even pay attention.

116
00:06:17,200 --> 00:06:19,080
Speaker 2: To the arguments that are coming from the right.

117
00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:24,159
Speaker 4: I think about this buck when, and we talked about

118
00:06:24,200 --> 00:06:27,440
Speaker 4: this a little bit, but it happened in sports last

119
00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:32,400
Speaker 4: week when Aaron Rodgers went on ESPN and just basically

120
00:06:33,040 --> 00:06:37,920
Speaker 4: castigated doctor Fauci and everyone else who had ridiculed him

121
00:06:37,960 --> 00:06:40,039
Speaker 4: for not getting the COVID shot and talked about the

122
00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:43,559
Speaker 4: fact that it didn't work, and that meaning the COVID

123
00:06:43,560 --> 00:06:46,320
Speaker 4: shot didn't work, and that all the boosters are worthless

124
00:06:46,320 --> 00:06:48,760
Speaker 4: by and large, and that it had not fulfilled the

125
00:06:48,839 --> 00:06:54,799
Speaker 4: expectation and you could hear left wingers' brains exploding because

126
00:06:55,000 --> 00:06:59,240
Speaker 4: they aren't ever exposed to those arguments, and so it's

127
00:06:59,279 --> 00:07:02,720
Speaker 4: considered to be And you know this because you lived

128
00:07:02,760 --> 00:07:06,560
Speaker 4: in New York City, but there's a certain wilful blindness

129
00:07:06,920 --> 00:07:11,000
Speaker 4: to endorsing the Democrat Party arguments. You don't even bother

130
00:07:11,200 --> 00:07:14,960
Speaker 4: engaging with the arguments of the other side and explaining

131
00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:16,240
Speaker 4: why they are wrong.

132
00:07:16,920 --> 00:07:20,400
Speaker 2: You just know that your side is right because they.

133
00:07:20,240 --> 00:07:23,840
Speaker 4: Believe in science and they believe in democracy, and you

134
00:07:23,920 --> 00:07:27,520
Speaker 4: never actually are forced to examine why someone else might

135
00:07:27,560 --> 00:07:30,120
Speaker 4: believe the other side, and so you have a one

136
00:07:30,200 --> 00:07:34,160
Speaker 4: way argument. I would argue that's what made Gavin Newsom

137
00:07:34,280 --> 00:07:36,800
Speaker 4: so flabby in the argument and the debate that he

138
00:07:36,880 --> 00:07:40,360
Speaker 4: had with Ron DeSantis, because people on the left aren't

139
00:07:40,400 --> 00:07:43,200
Speaker 4: ever forced to engage with the arguments of the right,

140
00:07:43,360 --> 00:07:46,880
Speaker 4: whereas the right is forced to constantly engage in the

141
00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:50,960
Speaker 4: arguments of the left. So our rhetorical skills are way

142
00:07:50,960 --> 00:07:51,600
Speaker 4: more refined.

143
00:07:51,640 --> 00:07:54,760
Speaker 2: I really believe that. Well, this is why college republicans,

144
00:07:55,080 --> 00:07:57,160
Speaker 2: you know, you see these kids sometimes even pop up

145
00:07:57,160 --> 00:07:59,880
Speaker 2: on TV. They'll be like a senior at you know,

146
00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:03,200
Speaker 2: named some college somewhere, senior at Hillsdale College and they

147
00:08:03,200 --> 00:08:06,440
Speaker 2: appear on TV with with the polish of a professional broadcaster.

148
00:08:06,800 --> 00:08:08,840
Speaker 2: And it's because they've spent the last you know, eight

149
00:08:08,960 --> 00:08:12,320
Speaker 2: years of their life basically arguing with high school teachers

150
00:08:12,360 --> 00:08:15,520
Speaker 2: and college professors and and getting good at it. Whereas

151
00:08:15,520 --> 00:08:18,720
Speaker 2: a lot of liberals, even in elite schools, are racist,

152
00:08:18,800 --> 00:08:20,960
Speaker 2: you know they Does that happen to you, Buck, where

153
00:08:20,960 --> 00:08:23,040
Speaker 2: you get into a conversation with somebody who's a little

154
00:08:23,040 --> 00:08:25,160
Speaker 2: bit left leaning and you share something that is fact

155
00:08:25,240 --> 00:08:27,440
Speaker 2: and they just have no idea it ever existed. Like

156
00:08:27,800 --> 00:08:30,120
Speaker 2: I love when they they stutter with the or you know,

157
00:08:30,120 --> 00:08:33,240
Speaker 2: they they're they're stumped with something like why I need

158
00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:34,559
Speaker 2: to go I need to go check on that. You know,

159
00:08:34,559 --> 00:08:36,920
Speaker 2: They're like, they don't accept your facts. I've come across

160
00:08:36,960 --> 00:08:39,200
Speaker 2: that a lot, although I try not to talk social

161
00:08:39,240 --> 00:08:43,200
Speaker 2: stuff or political stuff at social settings unless i'm where

162
00:08:43,200 --> 00:08:45,160
Speaker 2: I was like this past weekend where everyone's you know,

163
00:08:45,600 --> 00:08:47,760
Speaker 2: Navy or Marine and they're all they're all on board

164
00:08:47,760 --> 00:08:49,200
Speaker 2: for America. That was a lot of fun. I'll talk

165
00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:52,720
Speaker 2: about that later, But Clay, the the interesting thing to

166
00:08:52,760 --> 00:08:56,079
Speaker 2: me is in this, in this Brett Stevens peace it

167
00:08:56,160 --> 00:08:59,520
Speaker 2: is it is trying to sort of slowly open the

168
00:08:59,559 --> 00:09:02,520
Speaker 2: eyes of the Democrats, who I think have been led

169
00:09:02,559 --> 00:09:05,400
Speaker 2: to believe and this could all change, but led to believe.

170
00:09:05,400 --> 00:09:08,560
Speaker 2: At this point, we don't even have to make the

171
00:09:08,679 --> 00:09:13,080
Speaker 2: case for Biden or even make it against Trump. The

172
00:09:13,200 --> 00:09:16,240
Speaker 2: Justice Department's going to do it for us. The prosecutors

173
00:09:16,280 --> 00:09:18,960
Speaker 2: are going to finish this off. It's looking less and

174
00:09:19,040 --> 00:09:21,440
Speaker 2: less likely that that's going to happen. And I think

175
00:09:21,480 --> 00:09:25,520
Speaker 2: Stevens as a service to Democrats who are the readership,

176
00:09:25,559 --> 00:09:27,880
Speaker 2: you know, I mean you and I subscribe at the time,

177
00:09:27,920 --> 00:09:29,640
Speaker 2: so we can see what the enemy thinks. And the

178
00:09:29,760 --> 00:09:32,440
Speaker 2: Washington Post, by the way, so of course, yes, yeah,

179
00:09:32,440 --> 00:09:34,760
Speaker 2: I mean I'm reading these things all the time. I'm like, oh,

180
00:09:34,760 --> 00:09:37,480
Speaker 2: look it's Paul Krugman again. He's going to say something

181
00:09:37,520 --> 00:09:43,200
Speaker 2: that's wrong. But the truth is if the Democrats do

182
00:09:43,360 --> 00:09:45,360
Speaker 2: not wake and by the way, this would be true

183
00:09:45,480 --> 00:09:47,840
Speaker 2: of the Santis or Haley as well if they were

184
00:09:47,920 --> 00:09:51,400
Speaker 2: the nominee. But this I'm just going to shout at

185
00:09:51,400 --> 00:09:54,520
Speaker 2: the Republican and say that he's a racist for pointing

186
00:09:54,559 --> 00:09:58,400
Speaker 2: out the problems at the border. It's going to lose that.

187
00:09:58,400 --> 00:10:02,120
Speaker 2: That's actually a losing our him in America today. All

188
00:10:02,160 --> 00:10:04,400
Speaker 2: the polls show it, all the data shows it, and

189
00:10:04,480 --> 00:10:08,079
Speaker 2: the Democrat Party has a major, major challenge. And then

190
00:10:08,120 --> 00:10:11,439
Speaker 2: the other thing about the improvement of life, where things

191
00:10:11,480 --> 00:10:14,520
Speaker 2: going great, because there are a lot of Democrats, especially

192
00:10:14,559 --> 00:10:16,240
Speaker 2: along the coast, We've got plenty of money who think

193
00:10:16,240 --> 00:10:19,120
Speaker 2: things are going great. Center the country doesn't feel that way,

194
00:10:19,520 --> 00:10:25,920
Speaker 2: and particularly white, non college educated, working class voters do

195
00:10:26,080 --> 00:10:28,719
Speaker 2: not feel that way. And they are a key constituency

196
00:10:28,920 --> 00:10:30,840
Speaker 2: in some of the swing and some of the swing states.

197
00:10:31,080 --> 00:10:33,440
Speaker 4: Yeah, and the thing that I thought that Brett Stevens

198
00:10:33,440 --> 00:10:37,439
Speaker 4: got particularly right was Trump nailing the issue with if

199
00:10:37,480 --> 00:10:40,120
Speaker 4: we don't have a border, we're not a nation. And

200
00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:43,200
Speaker 4: as you see the mayors of Chicago and New York

201
00:10:43,240 --> 00:10:47,400
Speaker 4: and Washington, D c. And even Denver recently all begging

202
00:10:47,559 --> 00:10:49,800
Speaker 4: for the flow of migrants to stop.

203
00:10:49,920 --> 00:10:50,640
Speaker 2: Did you see JB.

204
00:10:50,720 --> 00:10:53,920
Speaker 4: Pritzker on I think it was ABC this week, and

205
00:10:53,960 --> 00:10:55,640
Speaker 4: we may have that audio that we'll play for you

206
00:10:55,720 --> 00:10:58,360
Speaker 4: later in the in the hour or next hour, where

207
00:10:58,360 --> 00:11:02,520
Speaker 4: he basically implored the governor of Texas, Greg Abbott, please

208
00:11:02,559 --> 00:11:05,600
Speaker 4: stop sending people to Chicago. We don't have the ability

209
00:11:05,640 --> 00:11:08,440
Speaker 4: to handle them anymore. And this is very important for

210
00:11:08,480 --> 00:11:11,160
Speaker 4: everybody out there. All of these cities are getting a

211
00:11:11,160 --> 00:11:13,920
Speaker 4: pinprick of what Texas deals with on a daily basis.

212
00:11:14,520 --> 00:11:18,480
Speaker 4: And so what Greg Abbott has proven is the flawed

213
00:11:18,640 --> 00:11:22,400
Speaker 4: system here of oh, we can't have border security that

214
00:11:22,440 --> 00:11:25,480
Speaker 4: Trump basically ran on in fifteen, he was one hundred

215
00:11:25,520 --> 00:11:29,840
Speaker 4: percent right, and importantly buck he said a lot of

216
00:11:29,880 --> 00:11:34,239
Speaker 4: things that even Joe Biden himself said about border security

217
00:11:34,480 --> 00:11:36,800
Speaker 4: back in like two thousand and eight, two thousand and nine.

218
00:11:37,200 --> 00:11:40,400
Speaker 4: One of the big issues in American politics today, I

219
00:11:40,400 --> 00:11:43,959
Speaker 4: would say in general, is somebody can have the right idea,

220
00:11:44,360 --> 00:11:48,360
Speaker 4: and if they're from the opposing party, it automatically gets

221
00:11:48,360 --> 00:11:53,480
Speaker 4: opposed just because the reflexive response is that person couldn't

222
00:11:53,480 --> 00:11:55,760
Speaker 4: have a good idea, we have to be opposed to it.

223
00:11:56,200 --> 00:11:59,120
Speaker 4: Border wall was not very controversial in two thousand and seven.

224
00:11:59,480 --> 00:12:03,360
Speaker 4: I certainly wasn't considered racist and seven in two thousand

225
00:12:03,360 --> 00:12:04,439
Speaker 4: and eight there was.

226
00:12:04,400 --> 00:12:09,440
Speaker 2: A Bipartisan Secure Fence Act and John McCain was actually

227
00:12:09,559 --> 00:12:12,920
Speaker 2: running ads back when he was the nominee, talking about

228
00:12:12,960 --> 00:12:15,559
Speaker 2: build the dang fence. That's that was the quote. Do

229
00:12:15,559 --> 00:12:16,040
Speaker 2: you remember that?

230
00:12:16,679 --> 00:12:16,839
Speaker 5: Yeah?

231
00:12:16,880 --> 00:12:19,120
Speaker 2: I mean, but they were just pretending is the point

232
00:12:19,160 --> 00:12:21,640
Speaker 2: they weren't actually gonna build it. It was just little

233
00:12:21,640 --> 00:12:22,600
Speaker 2: pieces here and there.

234
00:12:23,040 --> 00:12:26,360
Speaker 4: But the fact that that somehow became categorized as racist,

235
00:12:26,400 --> 00:12:28,000
Speaker 4: and we need to talk about this with the Fanny

236
00:12:28,080 --> 00:12:31,680
Speaker 4: Willis audio, the fact that she claimed I think that

237
00:12:31,679 --> 00:12:38,319
Speaker 4: that that's racist. That argument has really collapsed, even on

238
00:12:38,360 --> 00:12:42,000
Speaker 4: the left. I don't see it having the same cogency

239
00:12:42,520 --> 00:12:46,320
Speaker 4: that it's had in years past. I think the racism card,

240
00:12:46,400 --> 00:12:51,000
Speaker 4: so to speak, has really started to collapse. And you've

241
00:12:51,040 --> 00:12:53,319
Speaker 4: seen it, right, Biden tried to go down to Charleston

242
00:12:53,360 --> 00:12:56,920
Speaker 4: and argue, hey, you know, they're they're racist Republicans all

243
00:12:56,960 --> 00:13:01,000
Speaker 4: these things. I think it's increasingly getting harder and harder

244
00:13:01,120 --> 00:13:03,280
Speaker 4: for even Democrats to make that argument.

245
00:13:03,480 --> 00:13:07,040
Speaker 2: I think it's collapsing. You know. I was just talking

246
00:13:07,040 --> 00:13:09,720
Speaker 2: about Hillsdale a moment ago, and how impressive I've seen

247
00:13:09,800 --> 00:13:12,480
Speaker 2: Hillsdale graduates out on the scene, including sometimes when they

248
00:13:12,480 --> 00:13:14,959
Speaker 2: even pop up on TV to talk about issues of

249
00:13:15,080 --> 00:13:18,400
Speaker 2: national importance. But Hillsdale is the exception. Because there's a

250
00:13:18,440 --> 00:13:22,199
Speaker 2: crisis in American education right now, and for far too long,

251
00:13:22,679 --> 00:13:26,040
Speaker 2: students haven't been taught properly about our American heritage and

252
00:13:26,080 --> 00:13:30,640
Speaker 2: our American history. So many young Americans are rejecting the

253
00:13:30,640 --> 00:13:34,600
Speaker 2: fundamental principles of liberty and the constitutionalism that is the

254
00:13:34,640 --> 00:13:37,959
Speaker 2: foundation of this country. I mean, so many kids in

255
00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:40,560
Speaker 2: college these days are being taught the founding fathers or villains.

256
00:13:40,559 --> 00:13:43,839
Speaker 2: They're old white men. They're racist, they're toxic, they're bad

257
00:13:44,200 --> 00:13:46,320
Speaker 2: well as a society. This is a problem that we

258
00:13:46,360 --> 00:13:49,080
Speaker 2: have allowed to go on for far too long. Some

259
00:13:49,200 --> 00:13:53,560
Speaker 2: are taking action, though, Hillsdale College. Hillsdale College has been

260
00:13:53,640 --> 00:13:57,120
Speaker 2: leading the way in promoting civic education in the way

261
00:13:57,120 --> 00:14:00,360
Speaker 2: that actually you want, because they love and support and

262
00:14:00,480 --> 00:14:05,640
Speaker 2: believe in America. This year, Hillsdale's producing sixty second radio

263
00:14:05,640 --> 00:14:09,560
Speaker 2: spots called Constitution Minutes, short clear lessons on the principles

264
00:14:09,559 --> 00:14:12,160
Speaker 2: of liberty, and you'll hear them in this program. If

265
00:14:12,160 --> 00:14:15,160
Speaker 2: you want to hear a Constitution minute on demand, go

Speaker 1: Sanity in an Insane World. The Clay Travis and buck

271
00:14:38,680 --> 00:14:42,360
Speaker 1: Sexton Show, Welcome back in Clay Travis buck Sexton Show.

272
00:14:42,680 --> 00:14:45,400
Speaker 1: While we have Iowa and everybody's getting geared up to

273
00:14:45,440 --> 00:14:47,440
Speaker 1: go vote there, we were just talking about this off

274
00:14:47,520 --> 00:14:52,960
Speaker 1: are and I do think that there was this CBS

275
00:14:53,000 --> 00:14:54,720
Speaker 1: News poll that came out.

276
00:14:54,800 --> 00:14:57,400
Speaker 4: There was an ABC poll that came out over the weekend.

277
00:14:57,480 --> 00:15:00,560
Speaker 4: You've referenced the CBS poll if you missed it. It

278
00:15:00,800 --> 00:15:06,040
Speaker 4: said that DeSantis, Haley, and Trump would all beat Biden.

279
00:15:06,880 --> 00:15:10,120
Speaker 4: And then there was an additional poll that said, I

280
00:15:10,240 --> 00:15:15,080
Speaker 4: believe only twenty eight percent of people buck this was

281
00:15:15,080 --> 00:15:19,080
Speaker 4: in the ABC poll, believe that Biden has the mental

282
00:15:19,200 --> 00:15:22,840
Speaker 4: and the physical capacity to be president, which means seventy

283
00:15:22,880 --> 00:15:26,000
Speaker 4: two percent basically of Americans, seventy five out three out

284
00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:30,280
Speaker 4: of four of Americans, regardless of political party, don't have

285
00:15:30,400 --> 00:15:33,320
Speaker 4: the mental don't believe Biden has the mental or physical

286
00:15:33,360 --> 00:15:36,000
Speaker 4: fitness to be president. And a lot of you out

287
00:15:36,000 --> 00:15:38,160
Speaker 4: there are going to say, Okay, what are the other

288
00:15:38,280 --> 00:15:41,040
Speaker 4: twenty five percent of people seeing? And I would say,

289
00:15:41,600 --> 00:15:44,040
Speaker 4: they are so died in the world. Democrats, they would

290
00:15:44,080 --> 00:15:48,280
Speaker 4: just refuse to acknowledge any truth. This to me is

291
00:15:48,360 --> 00:15:52,360
Speaker 4: the story. And if I were in the Democrat camps

292
00:15:52,440 --> 00:15:57,040
Speaker 4: right now, what I would be terrified of is right now,

293
00:15:57,280 --> 00:15:59,680
Speaker 4: the story is not about any of the Republicans.

294
00:16:00,040 --> 00:16:02,240
Speaker 2: It's about Biden's lack of fitness.

295
00:16:03,120 --> 00:16:06,120
Speaker 4: And if this story doesn't change, and I don't think

296
00:16:06,120 --> 00:16:08,000
Speaker 4: it will because I think it's hard to change people's

297
00:16:08,040 --> 00:16:09,200
Speaker 4: impressions about health.

298
00:16:09,240 --> 00:16:11,240
Speaker 2: If you think they gotta you break the glass plan,

299
00:16:11,320 --> 00:16:13,240
Speaker 2: which me but whenever, can I just say I saw

300
00:16:13,400 --> 00:16:15,120
Speaker 2: you shared and a lot of people saw it. But

301
00:16:15,120 --> 00:16:19,520
Speaker 2: you tweeted out Biden walking around to I don't know

302
00:16:19,560 --> 00:16:23,240
Speaker 2: where he was or whatever. Yeah, but it's I mean,

303
00:16:23,280 --> 00:16:27,200
Speaker 2: he's he has noticeably he has. Anyone who says he

304
00:16:27,280 --> 00:16:31,160
Speaker 2: has not noticeably deteriorated since he ran in twenty twenty

305
00:16:31,600 --> 00:16:36,760
Speaker 2: is lying. Yes, obviously has. It is an incontrovertible fact

306
00:16:37,120 --> 00:16:41,120
Speaker 2: that Biden has lost several steps and he wasn't moving

307
00:16:41,200 --> 00:16:42,560
Speaker 2: so great in twenty twenty.

308
00:16:43,480 --> 00:16:46,480
Speaker 4: Yeah, that clip that you're talking about, you watch it

309
00:16:46,840 --> 00:16:48,160
Speaker 4: and you nailed it.

310
00:16:48,200 --> 00:16:49,240
Speaker 2: I think this is important.

311
00:16:49,280 --> 00:16:52,240
Speaker 4: They try to put Biden in those aviators as much

312
00:16:52,280 --> 00:16:55,760
Speaker 4: as they can those big sunglasses because you can't see

313
00:16:55,800 --> 00:16:58,680
Speaker 4: his eyes. We all know that he is feeble. When

314
00:16:58,680 --> 00:17:00,720
Speaker 4: he walks. He looks like he's going to fall at

315
00:17:00,720 --> 00:17:04,320
Speaker 4: any moment. He doesn't move his feet well, he physically

316
00:17:04,480 --> 00:17:10,159
Speaker 4: is frail, but that is bad. The amount of absence

317
00:17:10,240 --> 00:17:12,960
Speaker 4: in his eyes that you see Buck, I mean, it

318
00:17:13,040 --> 00:17:13,680
Speaker 4: is scary.

319
00:17:14,000 --> 00:17:16,840
Speaker 2: There are lots of times where you like, there's nobody home.

320
00:17:17,119 --> 00:17:20,320
Speaker 2: He may step down and then the Democrats are going

321
00:17:20,400 --> 00:17:22,879
Speaker 2: to try to rally around Kamala Harris. I know that

322
00:17:22,960 --> 00:17:25,960
Speaker 2: sounds crazy to people, but I wouldn't. I've said that's

323
00:17:26,000 --> 00:17:30,880
Speaker 2: possible all along. Clay thinks that that happens, except they

324
00:17:30,920 --> 00:17:33,680
Speaker 2: replace Kamala at the top of the ticket. Right, that's

325
00:17:33,680 --> 00:17:35,840
Speaker 2: where we are, Yes, that's where we are.

326
00:17:35,880 --> 00:17:38,960
Speaker 4: And to your point, that clip, I hope they we

327
00:17:38,960 --> 00:17:40,800
Speaker 4: can put it up on the website so people out

328
00:17:40,800 --> 00:17:44,280
Speaker 4: there who did not see it. It is terrifying to

329
00:17:44,359 --> 00:17:46,280
Speaker 4: think that as we sit here in time of war

330
00:17:46,400 --> 00:17:48,679
Speaker 4: in Europe and the time of war in the Middle East,

331
00:17:48,920 --> 00:17:51,160
Speaker 4: we're making decisions about who to bomb and everything else,

332
00:17:51,400 --> 00:17:54,080
Speaker 4: that we could be in a situation where Joe Biden

333
00:17:54,119 --> 00:17:56,800
Speaker 4: is as decrepit as he is. Right now, holidays are over.

356
00:19:07,960 --> 00:19:10,600
Speaker 2: to tell me something about who your boat captain was

357
00:19:10,680 --> 00:19:12,440
Speaker 2: in the navy back in the deck.

358
00:19:12,520 --> 00:19:18,879
Speaker 6: Yeah, I was on the Luca Hatchie, and UH have

359
00:19:19,080 --> 00:19:21,840
Speaker 6: no plan with my captain.

360
00:19:22,920 --> 00:19:25,720
Speaker 2: So Admiral Flatley was your captain back when you were

361
00:19:25,720 --> 00:19:26,800
Speaker 2: in the navy. What was the name of the.

362
00:19:26,760 --> 00:19:29,959
Speaker 6: Ship, Melusa Hatchie.

363
00:19:29,960 --> 00:19:32,680
Speaker 2: Melusa Hatchie. There we go. And he was a great

364
00:19:32,720 --> 00:19:35,480
Speaker 2: boat captain. I'm going to assume obviously.

365
00:19:35,920 --> 00:19:36,520
Speaker 7: Yes, we had.

366
00:19:37,760 --> 00:19:43,720
Speaker 6: He used to get the UH system and when the

367
00:19:43,760 --> 00:19:47,400
Speaker 6: aircraft carriers would be doing exercises on a Sunday afternoon,

368
00:19:47,680 --> 00:19:51,199
Speaker 6: he'd describe what they were doing. Uh, they'd come in

369
00:19:51,320 --> 00:19:53,280
Speaker 6: on the He'd said, look over there at two o'clock,

370
00:19:53,280 --> 00:19:54,960
Speaker 6: they're coming in on the deck and you'd look and

371
00:19:55,000 --> 00:19:57,360
Speaker 6: there would be a ship on the water and uh,

372
00:19:57,560 --> 00:19:59,840
Speaker 6: the airplane and it would come right at the ship

373
00:19:59,880 --> 00:20:02,640
Speaker 6: and then at the last second they would go straight up.

374
00:20:02,520 --> 00:20:02,960
Speaker 2: In the air.

375
00:20:04,240 --> 00:20:06,600
Speaker 6: And he'd described it. He knew that he knew their names,

376
00:20:06,640 --> 00:20:11,280
Speaker 6: their their call names is is Yeah, pretty cheap seats

377
00:20:11,320 --> 00:20:13,040
Speaker 6: for for for.

378
00:20:13,000 --> 00:20:15,800
Speaker 2: An air show. It sounds like very cool. Awesome Bob,

379
00:20:15,840 --> 00:20:18,560
Speaker 2: thanks for calling in, And this is runs I was in.

380
00:20:18,640 --> 00:20:20,639
Speaker 2: As I told all of you, I was at Admiral

381
00:20:20,680 --> 00:20:24,480
Speaker 2: Flatley's nintieth birthday celebration. We've got some photos up of

382
00:20:24,520 --> 00:20:27,160
Speaker 2: the admiral, and I was learning, I don't know Navy

383
00:20:27,240 --> 00:20:29,240
Speaker 2: ranks as well as I should play. I didn't deal

384
00:20:29,280 --> 00:20:32,480
Speaker 2: with any Navy overseas really except for Navy seals. So

385
00:20:32,560 --> 00:20:34,600
Speaker 2: the only Navy that I ever got to work in

386
00:20:34,680 --> 00:20:38,360
Speaker 2: proximity to really where Nate were seals. So I don't know,

387
00:20:38,600 --> 00:20:41,520
Speaker 2: like commander and captain and captain's much higher in the

388
00:20:41,600 --> 00:20:44,040
Speaker 2: Navy than it is, say, in the Army. But I

389
00:20:44,080 --> 00:20:46,440
Speaker 2: was talking to commanders and captains and admirals and rear

390
00:20:46,480 --> 00:20:50,320
Speaker 2: admirals and marines and marsak and all kinds of folks

391
00:20:50,680 --> 00:20:52,760
Speaker 2: from that world, a lot of Annapolis grads.

392
00:20:53,320 --> 00:20:53,439
Speaker 5: Uh.

393
00:20:53,920 --> 00:20:55,560
Speaker 2: It was a lot of fun in South Carolina. And

394
00:20:55,600 --> 00:20:57,680
Speaker 2: I just gotta say, first of all, so it's great

395
00:20:57,680 --> 00:20:59,280
Speaker 2: to be there. At clayanbuck dot com. We got some

396
00:20:59,280 --> 00:21:02,720
Speaker 2: photos up there, so any of you who were shipmates

397
00:21:03,359 --> 00:21:07,920
Speaker 2: with either Captain Flatley, Commander Flatley, or Admiral Flatley. We

398
00:21:08,040 --> 00:21:10,720
Speaker 2: got a lot of ranks for the different members of

399
00:21:10,760 --> 00:21:13,160
Speaker 2: Carrie's family that serve in the Navy. But also there's

400
00:21:13,160 --> 00:21:16,480
Speaker 2: all these jokes about like Navy beating Army and football

401
00:21:16,600 --> 00:21:19,159
Speaker 2: or something, and I have to catch up on all this.

402
00:21:19,280 --> 00:21:21,960
Speaker 2: I'm like, wait, who's the who's the what's it with

403
00:21:22,119 --> 00:21:24,560
Speaker 2: the goat? So they want to beat armies, the most

404
00:21:24,600 --> 00:21:25,640
Speaker 2: important thing in the.

405
00:21:25,600 --> 00:21:28,639
Speaker 4: Sport, And you know what, And I'm gonna certainly indict

406
00:21:28,720 --> 00:21:31,439
Speaker 4: myself here. I know how the game ended because I

407
00:21:31,480 --> 00:21:35,000
Speaker 4: had the under and it ended in a last second

408
00:21:35,119 --> 00:21:38,080
Speaker 4: stop at the goal line. I think Navy won this year.

409
00:21:38,160 --> 00:21:40,320
Speaker 4: But if I'm wrong on that, I can't even remember

410
00:21:40,320 --> 00:21:42,399
Speaker 4: who won the game. I just remember how it ended.

411
00:21:43,200 --> 00:21:45,479
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's right. The other thing also is, you know

412
00:21:46,040 --> 00:21:48,640
Speaker 2: they sometimes, like the Marines will make a joke about

413
00:21:48,640 --> 00:21:50,880
Speaker 2: the Navy, and I'm like, am I allowed to laugh?

414
00:21:51,000 --> 00:21:53,000
Speaker 2: It's one of those things. And then the Navy will

415
00:21:53,040 --> 00:21:55,679
Speaker 2: make a joke about Army or vice versa, and I'm like,

416
00:21:55,720 --> 00:21:57,480
Speaker 2: am I in on this? Am I? You know? The

417
00:21:57,520 --> 00:21:59,560
Speaker 2: CIA guy's got to be careful, right he just I

418
00:21:59,640 --> 00:22:02,359
Speaker 2: just scored around in the corner, laughing at everybody's jokes

419
00:22:02,400 --> 00:22:05,440
Speaker 2: and trying to stay out of the light of fire.

420
00:22:05,480 --> 00:22:10,800
Speaker 4: And secretly eavesdropping through your high tech spy's material.

421
00:22:10,440 --> 00:22:13,240
Speaker 2: That you have wired every room that you enter into

422
00:22:14,040 --> 00:22:17,840
Speaker 2: that's But the name of the ship is the USS Caloosahatchie.

423
00:22:17,960 --> 00:22:20,080
Speaker 2: That is quite a name, right, That is the name

424
00:22:20,080 --> 00:22:20,520
Speaker 2: of the ship.

425
00:22:20,520 --> 00:22:22,600
Speaker 4: I just got what is that based on that name?

426
00:22:22,840 --> 00:22:24,840
Speaker 4: A lot of times battles and everything else. I don't

427
00:22:24,840 --> 00:22:27,080
Speaker 4: know of Is that a river somewhere in the US.

428
00:22:27,280 --> 00:22:29,240
Speaker 4: I don't know that at all. Team's got a team's

429
00:22:29,240 --> 00:22:32,080
Speaker 4: gotta look that up, I don't, you know. Yeah, I'm

430
00:22:32,320 --> 00:22:35,120
Speaker 4: usually looking at a ship name, you know, like the Saratoga.

431
00:22:35,200 --> 00:22:37,080
Speaker 4: I got that one right, the ship named the you

432
00:22:37,080 --> 00:22:38,320
Speaker 4: know the usas Saratoga.

433
00:22:38,480 --> 00:22:40,560
Speaker 2: I could figure that one out pretty easy. But some

434
00:22:40,600 --> 00:22:42,600
Speaker 2: of these ships have different names. So there you go.

435
00:22:42,880 --> 00:22:44,560
Speaker 2: That's that's a lot. That's a tough one to spell.

436
00:22:44,920 --> 00:22:46,560
Speaker 2: It's a tough one to say on the radio too,

437
00:22:46,840 --> 00:22:49,080
Speaker 2: or to get across. Also, I just I a would

438
00:22:49,119 --> 00:22:52,199
Speaker 2: say this, man, And I know interesting, I had a

439
00:22:52,240 --> 00:22:54,920
Speaker 2: lot of uh now, as Clay pointed out when I

440
00:22:54,960 --> 00:22:57,320
Speaker 2: said this, you know, a lot of military folks and

441
00:22:57,400 --> 00:23:00,000
Speaker 2: also a lot of South Carolinians because I was in Charleston,

442
00:23:00,040 --> 00:23:02,159
Speaker 2: and I know people get bored of me saying this.

443
00:23:02,240 --> 00:23:05,040
Speaker 2: I love Charleston. I would, I would, I can tomorrow

444
00:23:05,400 --> 00:23:09,439
Speaker 2: and be very happy. I love Charleston. Governor McMaster just

445
00:23:09,440 --> 00:23:11,679
Speaker 2: got to he's got to get that tax rate down. Man,

446
00:23:11,680 --> 00:23:12,880
Speaker 2: I don't know what to say.

447
00:23:13,200 --> 00:23:16,359
Speaker 4: Charleston just elected Republican mayor too, didn't they just make

448
00:23:16,400 --> 00:23:18,959
Speaker 4: me true? I think that's the first time in like

449
00:23:19,080 --> 00:23:21,159
Speaker 4: two hundred years, I mean since the Civil War. I

450
00:23:21,160 --> 00:23:23,480
Speaker 4: think they just elected the first Republican mayor ever.

451
00:23:23,880 --> 00:23:25,600
Speaker 2: They got to get rid of that state income if

452
00:23:25,880 --> 00:23:28,080
Speaker 2: South Carolina got rid of well maybe they actually like

453
00:23:28,160 --> 00:23:30,480
Speaker 2: it this way, because if South Carolina got rid of

454
00:23:30,480 --> 00:23:33,000
Speaker 2: that state income tax, you'd hear as many New York

455
00:23:33,040 --> 00:23:36,000
Speaker 2: and Boston accents around Charleston pretty soon as you do

456
00:23:36,680 --> 00:23:37,520
Speaker 2: Southern accents.

457
00:23:37,640 --> 00:23:37,800
Speaker 6: Right.

458
00:23:37,880 --> 00:23:40,679
Speaker 2: So uh, that's the big the big challenge I think

459
00:23:40,720 --> 00:23:44,000
Speaker 2: for people like me who left the Northeast is you know,

460
00:23:44,200 --> 00:23:46,320
Speaker 2: I think it's about a six percent state income tax

461
00:23:46,400 --> 00:23:48,880
Speaker 2: rate there. Yeah, it's crazy. So so it's pretty high.

462
00:23:48,920 --> 00:23:50,560
Speaker 2: I mean, you know, it's not New York high, but

463
00:23:50,560 --> 00:23:53,520
Speaker 2: it's still pretty high. But I love Charleston a great place.

464
00:23:53,680 --> 00:23:55,800
Speaker 2: But there were I was talking to because I always

465
00:23:55,800 --> 00:23:58,960
Speaker 2: want to be fair, Okay, I was talking to now

466
00:23:58,960 --> 00:24:01,000
Speaker 2: they are South Carolinian, But there were some nicky Haley

467
00:24:01,040 --> 00:24:03,239
Speaker 2: supporters in the midst You know, there are people that

468
00:24:03,400 --> 00:24:07,000
Speaker 2: like Nicki Haley there. You know her numbers are real

469
00:24:07,080 --> 00:24:08,719
Speaker 2: For a reason, I thought it was interesting to hear

470
00:24:08,760 --> 00:24:09,440
Speaker 2: their perspective.

471
00:24:10,000 --> 00:24:13,399
Speaker 4: So the entire Nicki Haley campaign, and we start off

472
00:24:13,400 --> 00:24:16,359
Speaker 4: the show obviously voting in Iowa. Going on this evening,

473
00:24:16,359 --> 00:24:19,840
Speaker 4: we're going to find out first time actual votes, and

474
00:24:19,960 --> 00:24:22,240
Speaker 4: Nicki Haley and Ron DeSantis seem to be duking it

475
00:24:22,240 --> 00:24:24,359
Speaker 4: out for who's going to finish in second place. And

476
00:24:24,680 --> 00:24:28,280
Speaker 4: interestingly Buck there has even been an argument that is

477
00:24:28,320 --> 00:24:32,600
Speaker 4: taking place now in New Hampshire and in Iowa since

478
00:24:32,880 --> 00:24:36,240
Speaker 4: basically the Democrats don't have either a primary or caucus

479
00:24:36,240 --> 00:24:40,680
Speaker 4: this year because under discussed aspect of this story, Joe

480
00:24:40,680 --> 00:24:44,080
Speaker 4: Biden did so bad in Iowa New Hampshire that he

481
00:24:44,200 --> 00:24:48,040
Speaker 4: took them off their Democrat primary calendar this year. I mean,

482
00:24:48,160 --> 00:24:50,520
Speaker 4: for somebody who claims to care so much about democracy,

483
00:24:50,800 --> 00:24:54,080
Speaker 4: he flipped to make South Carolina number one. But there's

484
00:24:54,119 --> 00:24:57,040
Speaker 4: talk that some Democrats may go and caucus for Nicki

485
00:24:57,080 --> 00:25:01,159
Speaker 4: Haley because she's considered the most moderate of the Publican candidates.

486
00:25:01,680 --> 00:25:06,520
Speaker 4: But all of Nicki Haley's campaign boils down to I

487
00:25:06,600 --> 00:25:07,360
Speaker 4: will beat.

488
00:25:07,240 --> 00:25:10,080
Speaker 2: Trump in South Carolina, and if.

489
00:25:09,920 --> 00:25:15,840
Speaker 4: She can't do that, then basically her entire campaign argument

490
00:25:16,760 --> 00:25:19,760
Speaker 4: doesn't have any hold any water in terms of actually

491
00:25:19,800 --> 00:25:22,280
Speaker 4: being the nominee, which is why, to your point, you

492
00:25:22,320 --> 00:25:26,040
Speaker 4: still think there's the VP thing dangling out there where

493
00:25:26,080 --> 00:25:28,399
Speaker 4: it just puts everything to bed once and for all.

494
00:25:28,600 --> 00:25:31,399
Speaker 4: If she's the last person standing, if I am Nicki

495
00:25:31,440 --> 00:25:37,240
Speaker 4: Haley's advisor, if I am her consulieri, Okay, I sit

496
00:25:37,320 --> 00:25:38,800
Speaker 4: down with her and she's listening to me, And I

497
00:25:38,920 --> 00:25:41,120
Speaker 4: know some of the campaign folks listen to this show.

498
00:25:41,240 --> 00:25:43,240
Speaker 4: So that's why when I make some Nicki Haley jokes,

499
00:25:43,280 --> 00:25:44,720
Speaker 4: I try to be fair as well and point out

500
00:25:44,720 --> 00:25:46,440
Speaker 4: the good things and the fact that she's way ahead

501
00:25:46,480 --> 00:25:48,760
Speaker 4: of Biden, and you know, I'm trying to give multiple

502
00:25:48,760 --> 00:25:49,480
Speaker 4: perspectives on it.

503
00:25:49,520 --> 00:25:51,639
Speaker 2: We do make jokes here, though, for the campaign staff,

504
00:25:51,640 --> 00:25:55,359
Speaker 2: that does happen, And I would just say, if I

505
00:25:55,400 --> 00:25:59,680
Speaker 2: were Nicky Haley's counselor on this, if she is able

506
00:25:59,680 --> 00:26:01,919
Speaker 2: to get at a firm commitment from Trump. Now, if

507
00:26:01,960 --> 00:26:04,320
Speaker 2: be a firm commitment from Trump that she drops and

508
00:26:04,359 --> 00:26:08,240
Speaker 2: she becomes Trump's VP, she puts herself in a position

509
00:26:08,600 --> 00:26:12,960
Speaker 2: where she can she's after two years, she's basically running

510
00:26:12,960 --> 00:26:15,720
Speaker 2: for president again. Okay, she'd be running for president again.

511
00:26:15,800 --> 00:26:18,560
Speaker 2: She would have united the party under Trump for one

512
00:26:18,560 --> 00:26:21,320
Speaker 2: more term. I'm just saying from the Nicky Haley perspective,

513
00:26:22,000 --> 00:26:25,320
Speaker 2: she would be She worked for Trumps as US Ambassador

514
00:26:25,320 --> 00:26:27,600
Speaker 2: the United Nations before, She's already been in a Trump administration.

515
00:26:27,840 --> 00:26:30,120
Speaker 2: She knows how to deal with him. They actually get

516
00:26:30,119 --> 00:26:32,439
Speaker 2: along well from what I understand, they always have in

517
00:26:32,480 --> 00:26:35,320
Speaker 2: the past. And she would kind of play the role

518
00:26:35,400 --> 00:26:38,439
Speaker 2: for two years and then could run open field and

519
00:26:38,480 --> 00:26:40,840
Speaker 2: could possibly be president for eight years. Brings the donor

520
00:26:40,880 --> 00:26:44,360
Speaker 2: class in together, brings sort of a more establishment now

521
00:26:44,840 --> 00:26:47,200
Speaker 2: Trump people might be sitting here saying, oh my gosh,

522
00:26:47,200 --> 00:26:49,679
Speaker 2: what I'm not saying that this should happen. I'm just

523
00:26:49,720 --> 00:26:53,600
Speaker 2: saying from a Nicky Haley perspective, the play makes a

524
00:26:53,640 --> 00:26:56,920
Speaker 2: lot of sense, and for Trump himself, it would clear

525
00:26:56,960 --> 00:26:59,400
Speaker 2: the field super early. But I gotta tell you something.

526
00:26:59,440 --> 00:27:02,440
Speaker 2: I think Trump wants to vanquish all those who stand

527
00:27:02,480 --> 00:27:05,399
Speaker 2: against him. I don't think he's necessarily thinking in these terms.

528
00:27:05,640 --> 00:27:08,439
Speaker 2: He may want to show everybody, look at that scoreboard,

529
00:27:08,480 --> 00:27:09,520
Speaker 2: look at what I'm running up.

530
00:27:09,960 --> 00:27:14,000
Speaker 4: Yeah, I also don't buy that there's anybody that Trump

531
00:27:14,040 --> 00:27:17,200
Speaker 4: could pick his VP that would hurt him. I think

532
00:27:17,280 --> 00:27:19,440
Speaker 4: there are people he could pick his VP that would

533
00:27:19,440 --> 00:27:21,680
Speaker 4: help him. I think there's no one he could pick

534
00:27:21,680 --> 00:27:24,360
Speaker 4: that would hurt him. And I also don't buy into

535
00:27:25,000 --> 00:27:27,160
Speaker 4: people out there who say, oh, Trump.

536
00:27:26,840 --> 00:27:28,680
Speaker 2: Can't do this, we'll never stand for this.

537
00:27:29,240 --> 00:27:32,960
Speaker 4: Well, most of those people immediately pivot to whatever Trump says.

538
00:27:33,160 --> 00:27:35,160
Speaker 2: And the Vivike thing was so perfect.

539
00:27:35,560 --> 00:27:38,160
Speaker 4: As soon as Trump said something negative about the Veke,

540
00:27:38,560 --> 00:27:42,719
Speaker 4: the most diehard of the Trump supporters online immediately had

541
00:27:42,760 --> 00:27:46,280
Speaker 4: an issue with Vivike. They've been praising Vivike for the

542
00:27:46,359 --> 00:27:49,360
Speaker 4: whole campaign so far. As soon as Trump put out

543
00:27:49,400 --> 00:27:52,879
Speaker 4: a truth social post questioning Theveke, all of those people

544
00:27:52,920 --> 00:27:56,680
Speaker 4: immediately pivoted. I mean, they are going to go wherever

545
00:27:56,760 --> 00:27:58,800
Speaker 4: Trump leads them. And Trump was right when he said

546
00:27:59,119 --> 00:28:01,240
Speaker 4: his base Wooden leave him if he shot somebody on

547
00:28:01,320 --> 00:28:03,639
Speaker 4: Fifth Avenue. I think that's one hundred percent true. By

548
00:28:03,640 --> 00:28:05,720
Speaker 4: the way, clearing up a couple of fact things here,

549
00:28:06,440 --> 00:28:10,119
Speaker 4: the Caloosahatchie River Southwest.

550
00:28:09,480 --> 00:28:11,679
Speaker 2: Florida River, so that is where the name of that

551
00:28:11,760 --> 00:28:16,119
Speaker 2: vote comes from in Florida. I need my Florida geography okay,

552
00:28:16,600 --> 00:28:17,720
Speaker 2: and I was right.

553
00:28:17,840 --> 00:28:21,720
Speaker 4: Charleston elected a Republican mayor for the first time since

554
00:28:21,760 --> 00:28:25,840
Speaker 4: the eighteen seventies. And by the way, those Republican mayors

555
00:28:25,840 --> 00:28:30,679
Speaker 4: would have been elected when the Confederate soldiers were not

556
00:28:30,760 --> 00:28:34,720
Speaker 4: allowed to vote in the immediate aftermath of the Civil War,

557
00:28:35,160 --> 00:28:41,200
Speaker 4: so basically since reconstruction. William Cogswell is the first Republican

558
00:28:41,280 --> 00:28:46,120
Speaker 4: to be elected in South Carolina. Remember, historically, Republican Party

559
00:28:47,360 --> 00:28:52,160
Speaker 4: was the Party of Lincoln. Democrats were the party that

560
00:28:52,280 --> 00:28:54,040
Speaker 4: seceded in South Carolina.

561
00:28:54,080 --> 00:28:56,480
Speaker 2: There. Did you see Fort Sumter during any of your

562
00:28:57,080 --> 00:28:59,880
Speaker 2: any of your trip, haven't haven't been. I was actually

563
00:29:00,120 --> 00:29:04,120
Speaker 2: in the I was in Admiral Flatley's study, surrounded with

564
00:29:04,560 --> 00:29:07,680
Speaker 2: naval paraphernalia writing my book. I wasn't having that much.

565
00:29:07,840 --> 00:29:10,160
Speaker 2: I wasn't able to really socialize much on Sunday. But

566
00:29:10,320 --> 00:29:12,880
Speaker 2: Fort Sumter is very cool to visit if you are

567
00:29:12,920 --> 00:29:15,160
Speaker 2: a history buff and you get an opportunity to get

568
00:29:15,200 --> 00:29:16,760
Speaker 2: I'm gonna go back and check out. They have an

569
00:29:16,760 --> 00:29:19,240
Speaker 2: aircraft carrier, decommissioned carrier there that I'm also going to

570
00:29:19,280 --> 00:29:21,480
Speaker 2: go and see. So that's I know, that's a big,

571
00:29:21,520 --> 00:29:26,080
Speaker 2: a big draw. Speaking of the draw Clay so far.

572
00:29:26,080 --> 00:29:28,240
Speaker 2: I gotta tell you, buddy, I'm over for one here

573
00:29:28,600 --> 00:29:31,200
Speaker 2: with my picks. But I'm looking forward to this week

574
00:29:31,280 --> 00:29:34,760
Speaker 2: and actually tonight, because thanks to prize Picks, I'm still

575
00:29:34,760 --> 00:29:37,280
Speaker 2: in it. And I'm telling you right now, I'm looking

576
00:29:37,320 --> 00:29:39,720
Speaker 2: at this. I got Baker Mayfield. I think he's going

577
00:29:39,800 --> 00:29:42,480
Speaker 2: to go for less than the two hundred and thirty

578
00:29:42,520 --> 00:29:45,520
Speaker 2: six yards. And I got Josh Allen he's also I'm

579
00:29:45,560 --> 00:29:48,560
Speaker 2: going less on both. I'm feeling a little pessimistic about

580
00:29:48,600 --> 00:29:50,880
Speaker 2: their chances and I'm hoping that I'm gonna win. But

581
00:29:50,960 --> 00:29:53,080
Speaker 2: for all of you out there prize picks, see, I'm

582
00:29:53,160 --> 00:29:55,480
Speaker 2: even I'm off to the races here. I just downloaded

583
00:29:55,480 --> 00:29:57,600
Speaker 2: prize picks a few a few weeks ago. I got

584
00:29:57,600 --> 00:30:00,360
Speaker 2: Clay's tutelage. We are O for one so far, Clay

585
00:30:00,440 --> 00:30:02,120
Speaker 2: for the buckster, so we got to step up this one.

586
00:30:02,160 --> 00:30:04,160
Speaker 4: Hold on three for three in the picks that I

587
00:30:04,240 --> 00:30:06,400
Speaker 4: gave out on Friday, though, with a chance to win

588
00:30:06,560 --> 00:30:09,680
Speaker 4: ten to one tonight with or this afternoon when the

589
00:30:09,680 --> 00:30:12,160
Speaker 4: Bills game takes place that they moved from Sunday.

590
00:30:12,440 --> 00:30:14,720
Speaker 2: So, like I said, I'm learning as I go here.

591
00:30:14,880 --> 00:30:17,560
Speaker 2: Clay is the expert. I'm the novice on the picks.

592
00:30:17,880 --> 00:30:19,760
Speaker 2: But Prize Picks is such a fun app. And it's

593
00:30:19,760 --> 00:30:21,560
Speaker 2: fun as you can see. Even if somebody you know

594
00:30:21,880 --> 00:30:24,360
Speaker 2: they're not into a particular sport that much, they get

595
00:30:24,360 --> 00:30:25,880
Speaker 2: to be a part of it. They get to learn

596
00:30:25,880 --> 00:30:28,920
Speaker 2: about it, and it's really a fun thing to talk

597
00:30:28,920 --> 00:30:31,760
Speaker 2: to your friends about. So once you've registered and set up,

598
00:30:31,800 --> 00:30:34,640
Speaker 2: you select two or more players and let's say football, basketball,

599
00:30:34,640 --> 00:30:36,920
Speaker 2: although there's a whole bunch of sports, pick more or

600
00:30:36,960 --> 00:30:40,000
Speaker 2: less on the projection for players and place your entry.

601
00:30:40,040 --> 00:30:41,760
Speaker 2: I mean, I don't know how else to say this, guys.

602
00:30:42,160 --> 00:30:44,720
Speaker 2: It's a sports pick that's so easy even Buck can

603
00:30:44,840 --> 00:30:48,920
Speaker 2: do it. So and it's fun. It's fun. It's very fun. Yeah. So,

00:31:35,320 --> 00:31:40,440
Speaker 4: to be underway in the great state of Iowa. Everybody

619
00:31:40,440 --> 00:31:44,200
Speaker 4: else out there is going to be reacting to what

620
00:31:44,480 --> 00:31:49,040
Speaker 4: these voters have to say, and we've got a We've

621
00:31:49,040 --> 00:31:52,360
Speaker 4: got several people in Iowa. We've been saying, in particular Iowa,

622
00:31:52,400 --> 00:31:57,240
Speaker 4: we'd like to hear from you, Brad in Davenport, Iowa.

623
00:31:57,280 --> 00:31:58,120
Speaker 4: Who's your vote?

624
00:31:58,160 --> 00:31:58,400
Speaker 2: Why?

625
00:32:00,160 --> 00:32:06,479
Speaker 8: I am a precinct captain for Desantas tonight and the

626
00:32:06,520 --> 00:32:09,000
Speaker 8: only reason why I'm not for Trump is I feel

627
00:32:09,000 --> 00:32:13,520
Speaker 8: that the Shenanigans are going to take hold and unfortunately

628
00:32:13,800 --> 00:32:17,080
Speaker 8: take Trump out of the running. And I also like

629
00:32:17,200 --> 00:32:25,080
Speaker 8: how Dysantis puts the media and the haters in their place,

630
00:32:25,280 --> 00:32:27,040
Speaker 8: and he's done a great job in Florida.

631
00:32:27,680 --> 00:32:30,200
Speaker 4: How many people do you expect, Brad? So you're a

632
00:32:30,280 --> 00:32:32,479
Speaker 4: precinct chair. Does that mean that you're going to get

633
00:32:32,560 --> 00:32:35,680
Speaker 4: up and speak on behalf of DeSantis in your caucus?

634
00:32:36,240 --> 00:32:36,520
Speaker 1: Yes?

635
00:32:37,080 --> 00:32:38,920
Speaker 4: How many people will be in the room at the

636
00:32:38,960 --> 00:32:41,840
Speaker 4: caucus that you will be attending, and what do you

637
00:32:41,880 --> 00:32:45,280
Speaker 4: expect this attendance to look like compared to past years.

638
00:32:46,000 --> 00:32:49,000
Speaker 8: I'm hoping it's going to be good. But as I

639
00:32:49,040 --> 00:32:52,160
Speaker 8: look out over a partially frozen Mississippi River, I think

640
00:32:52,160 --> 00:32:54,960
Speaker 8: the weather is going to have an impact on the

641
00:32:55,360 --> 00:33:04,400
Speaker 8: outcome or the you know, people growing up, it's typically

642
00:33:05,480 --> 00:33:09,400
Speaker 8: it's it's a packed room and you've get you get

643
00:33:09,400 --> 00:33:12,040
Speaker 8: a bunch of people that will stand up and say

644
00:33:12,080 --> 00:33:15,480
Speaker 8: why they're for their candidate, and some people get swayed

645
00:33:15,520 --> 00:33:21,680
Speaker 8: to change their votes. But I just I don't know tonight.

646
00:33:21,840 --> 00:33:28,520
Speaker 8: I think a lot of people are frustrated, and rightfully so,

647
00:33:28,680 --> 00:33:31,080
Speaker 8: but I'm hoping for a good turnout.

648
00:33:32,080 --> 00:33:35,920
Speaker 4: Thank you for the call, Karen and Robbins Iowa near

649
00:33:36,040 --> 00:33:40,520
Speaker 4: Cedar Rapids. You want to encourage everybody out there, regardless

650
00:33:40,560 --> 00:33:42,880
Speaker 4: of who they're supporting, to get out and caucus and

651
00:33:42,920 --> 00:33:44,000
Speaker 4: place their vote.

652
00:33:45,280 --> 00:33:50,160
Speaker 5: It's a privilege to talk to your audience. Hey, I

653
00:33:50,200 --> 00:33:54,040
Speaker 5: want to talk to all islands. If my dad, a

654
00:33:54,160 --> 00:33:58,720
Speaker 5: pow during World War Two who was fourth marched by

655
00:33:58,760 --> 00:34:03,160
Speaker 5: the German SS. If he was willing to lay his life.

656
00:34:02,920 --> 00:34:07,440
Speaker 7: Down for this privilege to vote, iwan, get out there,

657
00:34:08,080 --> 00:34:12,040
Speaker 7: suck it up, Buttercup. I'm tired of hearing about low

658
00:34:12,080 --> 00:34:14,920
Speaker 7: turnout because of the weather. We can drive in our

659
00:34:14,960 --> 00:34:19,200
Speaker 7: heated cars, walk into a heated building, and we can vote.

660
00:34:20,200 --> 00:34:23,640
Speaker 2: Do it was he? Karen? Was your dad captured the

661
00:34:23,719 --> 00:34:25,560
Speaker 2: Battle of Bulge.

662
00:34:25,840 --> 00:34:28,840
Speaker 7: No, my father was a NOES gunner and a B

663
00:34:29,000 --> 00:34:34,840
Speaker 7: twenty four liberator. He flew fifteen missions over eastern Europe.

664
00:34:35,080 --> 00:34:38,960
Speaker 7: He had to abandon his plane because a cluster bomb

665
00:34:39,000 --> 00:34:42,279
Speaker 7: got stuck and they pushed it out if you could

666
00:34:42,320 --> 00:34:46,120
Speaker 7: imagine of the plane, and it exploded and hit their

667
00:34:46,440 --> 00:34:49,400
Speaker 7: plane and they had the parachute. Wow fast time he

668
00:34:49,480 --> 00:34:52,000
Speaker 7: ever parachuted from a plane. How terrifying.

669
00:34:52,480 --> 00:34:55,960
Speaker 2: And I think they're making Karen, that's an amazing story.

670
00:34:56,000 --> 00:34:58,480
Speaker 2: And you know, thank your father, or we think we

671
00:34:58,560 --> 00:35:01,399
Speaker 2: thank your father for being a hero. But I think

672
00:35:01,440 --> 00:35:04,960
Speaker 2: there's a new I think the Band of Brothers production

673
00:35:05,200 --> 00:35:09,200
Speaker 2: team and Steven Spielberg, I think they're doing the Airman Show, right.

674
00:35:09,440 --> 00:35:12,080
Speaker 2: I think you're right, So they're doing a show, a

675
00:35:12,080 --> 00:35:15,759
Speaker 2: World War two show about is it European theater or

676
00:35:15,840 --> 00:35:18,359
Speaker 2: is it Pacific theater stuff? I think it's European theater.

677
00:35:18,440 --> 00:35:22,239
Speaker 2: It's like Band of Brothers but with planes or more planes. Yeah,

678
00:35:22,280 --> 00:35:23,840
Speaker 2: I think that's right. Buck.

679
00:35:24,600 --> 00:35:27,280
Speaker 4: And by the way, if you haven't had a chance

680
00:35:27,360 --> 00:35:31,080
Speaker 4: to read the book Band of Brothers, so good. So

681
00:35:31,200 --> 00:35:34,480
Speaker 4: if you want to just feel better about the country

682
00:35:34,520 --> 00:35:37,200
Speaker 4: because you are upset about the way things are going

683
00:35:37,239 --> 00:35:39,560
Speaker 4: in twenty twenty four, certainly there's going to be plenty

684
00:35:39,600 --> 00:35:41,959
Speaker 4: of that, I would encourage you to read one more

685
00:35:42,080 --> 00:35:44,840
Speaker 4: Tom and Oka Boji. I don't know if I pronounced

686
00:35:44,880 --> 00:35:47,120
Speaker 4: that right, Oka Boji? Iowa?

687
00:35:47,840 --> 00:35:50,799
Speaker 2: Did I say that right? You got it?

688
00:35:51,000 --> 00:35:56,800
Speaker 9: Yep, Megadeto's guys from Arctic Iowa. I'm playing the caucus

689
00:35:56,800 --> 00:35:59,720
Speaker 9: for De Santas tonight. And as I told the call screener,

690
00:36:00,360 --> 00:36:03,120
Speaker 9: you know, I unfortunately I don't think Trump is electable.

691
00:36:04,000 --> 00:36:06,840
Speaker 9: You know, he underperforms with suburban women and some of

692
00:36:06,840 --> 00:36:09,880
Speaker 9: these other key demographics that you've got to have, and

693
00:36:09,960 --> 00:36:12,160
Speaker 9: you know, you stop and think about his age is

694
00:36:12,800 --> 00:36:15,600
Speaker 9: just too comparable to Biden's. We've already got a doddering

695
00:36:15,680 --> 00:36:17,759
Speaker 9: old man in the in the White House, and I

696
00:36:17,800 --> 00:36:19,960
Speaker 9: do think that voters are going to have a hard

697
00:36:20,000 --> 00:36:21,879
Speaker 9: time with that comparison.

698
00:36:22,440 --> 00:36:24,239
Speaker 2: All right, let's we'll take this on in the next hour.

699
00:36:24,239 --> 00:36:25,800
Speaker 2: Appreciate you calling in because we're at the end for

700
00:36:25,840 --> 00:36:27,520
Speaker 2: this hour. I'm sure folks are gonna want to weigh

701
00:36:27,520 --> 00:36:30,200
Speaker 2: in in response to that. Clay, the show is Masters

702
00:36:30,239 --> 00:36:33,480
Speaker 2: of the Air, a companion to Band of Brothers comes

703
00:36:33,480 --> 00:36:35,040
Speaker 2: out later this month.

704
00:36:35,560 --> 00:36:38,000
Speaker 4: Oh, that's awesome. Yeah, it's europ being sure. That will

705
00:36:38,080 --> 00:36:41,040
Speaker 4: be fabulous. It's gonna be really tough the lines. We'll

706
00:36:41,040 --> 00:36:44,000
Speaker 4: finish up the final hour before voting in Iowa,
