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 --> 00:00:06,720
Speaker 1: Sexton Show podcast O. Welcome in.

3
00:00:07,360 --> 00:00:13,720
Speaker 2: It is finally Election Day, twenty twenty four. I hope

4
00:00:13,720 --> 00:00:16,760
Speaker 2: all of you are having a fantastic start to the week,

5
00:00:16,880 --> 00:00:23,280
Speaker 2: particularly if you are in frigid planet of hot style, Iowa,

6
00:00:23,840 --> 00:00:28,200
Speaker 2: where all of you have the ability to set the

7
00:00:28,320 --> 00:00:33,479
Speaker 2: national agenda for the very first time. Four months, years

8
00:00:33,640 --> 00:00:36,720
Speaker 2: even we have been talking about what the votes were.

9
00:00:36,680 --> 00:00:39,000
Speaker 1: Going to look like in twenty twenty.

10
00:00:38,720 --> 00:00:42,960
Speaker 2: Four, and at long last, today we will begin to

11
00:00:43,040 --> 00:00:47,600
Speaker 2: hear from the people themselves. No polls, nothing else other

12
00:00:47,680 --> 00:00:51,560
Speaker 2: than a lot of individual caucuses. Feels like it should

13
00:00:51,560 --> 00:00:56,480
Speaker 2: be CAUCAUSI perhaps caucuses all over the state of Iowa.

14
00:00:57,080 --> 00:01:01,800
Speaker 2: And Buck. The battle it appears, say, it appears to

15
00:01:01,960 --> 00:01:05,600
Speaker 2: be over who is going to come in second place?

16
00:01:06,240 --> 00:01:10,440
Speaker 2: As Donald Trump has apparently opened up a big lead.

17
00:01:10,760 --> 00:01:15,880
Speaker 2: There was an expectation that we could see record turnout

18
00:01:15,920 --> 00:01:19,800
Speaker 2: for these caucuses two hundred thousand or more. The weather

19
00:01:20,360 --> 00:01:23,400
Speaker 2: has thrown that a bit into an uproar. No one

20
00:01:23,440 --> 00:01:26,240
Speaker 2: seems to know exactly what the turnout will look like

21
00:01:26,520 --> 00:01:30,240
Speaker 2: or how it will impact all of the top candidates.

22
00:01:30,600 --> 00:01:32,880
Speaker 1: I followed it I'm sure you did as well. Buck.

23
00:01:32,920 --> 00:01:37,240
Speaker 2: Over the weekend, every candidate, according to the candidate, having

24
00:01:37,360 --> 00:01:43,160
Speaker 2: massive turnouts, everyone with fabulous momentum. The veak Ramaswami is

25
00:01:43,280 --> 00:01:46,399
Speaker 2: arguing it, Nikki Haley is arguing it. Ron DeSantis is

26
00:01:46,480 --> 00:01:50,720
Speaker 2: arguing that Donald Trump is. And so we will wait

27
00:01:51,520 --> 00:01:53,840
Speaker 2: and tomorrow, when we come on, we will have the

28
00:01:53,880 --> 00:01:56,400
Speaker 2: first victor of twenty twenty four.

29
00:01:56,520 --> 00:01:57,440
Speaker 1: Cannot wait on that.

30
00:01:57,800 --> 00:02:02,680
Speaker 2: Fannie Willis finally has come out and address the allegations

31
00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:06,600
Speaker 2: against her at a church service, of all places. And

32
00:02:06,960 --> 00:02:11,200
Speaker 2: whenever you say, hey, do you expect me to be perfect?

33
00:02:11,680 --> 00:02:15,280
Speaker 2: Probably a pretty big sign that you have done.

34
00:02:15,080 --> 00:02:17,240
Speaker 1: Whatever is being alleged against you.

35
00:02:17,320 --> 00:02:22,280
Speaker 2: We will get into that, but this is Iowa Caucus

36
00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:27,520
Speaker 2: analysis Day, the final one where we won't have actual

37
00:02:27,600 --> 00:02:30,080
Speaker 2: votes cast, and Buck, would you buy in with me

38
00:02:30,720 --> 00:02:34,360
Speaker 2: that we expect the overall story to be who is

39
00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:37,520
Speaker 2: going to come in second place? If Ron DeSantis comes

40
00:02:37,560 --> 00:02:40,680
Speaker 2: in second place, I think that's actually good for Trump

41
00:02:40,960 --> 00:02:44,800
Speaker 2: because Nikki Haley is looking strong in New Hampshire. If

42
00:02:44,880 --> 00:02:47,919
Speaker 2: she comes in second in Iowa as well, she would

43
00:02:47,960 --> 00:02:50,320
Speaker 2: have a very legitimate argument, I think coming out of

44
00:02:50,320 --> 00:02:53,600
Speaker 2: New Hampshire in eight days that she would be able

45
00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:56,040
Speaker 2: to go toe to toe with Trump two weeks until

46
00:02:56,360 --> 00:03:01,160
Speaker 2: the Iowa primary. If Trump, sorry the North Carolina primary,

47
00:03:01,440 --> 00:03:06,080
Speaker 2: If if DeSantis comes in second, then it's kind of

48
00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:10,080
Speaker 2: a mess as to who is the challenger to Trump.

49
00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:12,600
Speaker 2: That is probably the biggest story that is going to

50
00:03:12,680 --> 00:03:15,840
Speaker 2: come out. That's presuming we don't get a once in

51
00:03:15,880 --> 00:03:20,040
Speaker 2: a lifetime style upset because Trump is expected to win.

52
00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:22,280
Speaker 2: If you were to lose, that would really throw things

53
00:03:22,280 --> 00:03:25,320
Speaker 2: into an uproar. What's your analysis here as we sit

54
00:03:25,440 --> 00:03:26,880
Speaker 2: on Caucus Monday.

55
00:03:27,360 --> 00:03:29,760
Speaker 3: Well, first of all, as you know, media loves to

56
00:03:29,760 --> 00:03:34,040
Speaker 3: talk about extreme weather. So you're gonna see more people

57
00:03:34,200 --> 00:03:37,280
Speaker 3: out there. They're gonna be wearing Parka on top of

58
00:03:37,560 --> 00:03:41,080
Speaker 3: parca as they're holding that microphone. Because the National Weather

59
00:03:41,160 --> 00:03:46,320
Speaker 3: Service issued a wind chill warning for des Moines, forecasting

60
00:03:46,680 --> 00:03:50,880
Speaker 3: life threatening wind chill, or as it's known in like

61
00:03:51,040 --> 00:03:56,440
Speaker 3: northern Michigan and Minnesota. Tuesday, wind chill values as low

62
00:03:56,480 --> 00:04:01,720
Speaker 3: as forty five below zero are possible. Forty five below zero,

63
00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:04,080
Speaker 3: So you're gonna hear a lot of people talking about

64
00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:07,280
Speaker 3: that and whether that effects turnout or not, I don't know.

65
00:04:07,320 --> 00:04:10,280
Speaker 3: I think the good sturdy people of Iowa are prepared

66
00:04:10,320 --> 00:04:13,160
Speaker 3: for this kind of thing. But you know, weather does

67
00:04:13,200 --> 00:04:13,720
Speaker 3: get attention.

68
00:04:13,720 --> 00:04:14,120
Speaker 1: It's funny.

69
00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:15,560
Speaker 3: That's why I ever loved the weather guy, because it

70
00:04:15,560 --> 00:04:19,360
Speaker 3: gives you a worthwhile information that's a big story going

71
00:04:19,400 --> 00:04:22,599
Speaker 3: into I'm sorry the weather, but what you talked about, Clay,

72
00:04:23,160 --> 00:04:26,080
Speaker 3: I think your analysis is honestly the consensus now because

73
00:04:26,120 --> 00:04:28,120
Speaker 3: it's the reality. I don't think there's much of a

74
00:04:28,160 --> 00:04:32,680
Speaker 3: debate that if Ron desantists comes in second every contest

75
00:04:32,720 --> 00:04:35,240
Speaker 3: then and every you know, every percentage point feels like

76
00:04:35,279 --> 00:04:38,160
Speaker 3: it matters going into not just New Hampshire but then

77
00:04:38,200 --> 00:04:41,960
Speaker 3: Super Tuesday. If Nicky Haley manages to come in second

78
00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:45,760
Speaker 3: in Iowa, the DeSantis campaign, it feels like at least

79
00:04:45,839 --> 00:04:49,000
Speaker 3: needs a miracle, a true miracle to be able to

80
00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:52,520
Speaker 3: do it. Really anything after that, of consequence, I think

81
00:04:52,520 --> 00:04:54,840
Speaker 3: there's a possibility if Nicky Haley comes in second, You'll

82
00:04:54,880 --> 00:04:57,719
Speaker 3: hear a lot of speculation that maybe Trump will maker

83
00:04:57,760 --> 00:05:00,800
Speaker 3: and offers you can't refuse, as in, you're gonna lose

84
00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:03,200
Speaker 3: to me, Nikki, do you want to be vice president?

85
00:05:03,279 --> 00:05:05,040
Speaker 3: I know a lot of Trump voters are gonna are

86
00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:07,360
Speaker 3: gonna say, oh, he would never do that. He's Trump

87
00:05:07,440 --> 00:05:09,839
Speaker 3: the deal maker. If he could seal this thing up,

88
00:05:10,080 --> 00:05:12,040
Speaker 3: save a lot of time and cash, I wouldn't. I

89
00:05:12,040 --> 00:05:14,400
Speaker 3: wouldn't say it's unthinkable at all. Bring the donor class

90
00:05:14,440 --> 00:05:17,920
Speaker 3: together might calm some of the donors and the GOP down.

91
00:05:18,279 --> 00:05:21,480
Speaker 3: But another big story over the weekend. We haven't mentioned

92
00:05:21,520 --> 00:05:24,719
Speaker 3: this name yet, but we've got Biden polls. I mean,

93
00:05:24,760 --> 00:05:27,320
Speaker 3: there's so much data to talk to you about today

94
00:05:27,360 --> 00:05:28,919
Speaker 3: that gives you a real sense of world. This is

95
00:05:28,920 --> 00:05:34,120
Speaker 3: going to clay the Veke Ramis Swami got his first

96
00:05:34,160 --> 00:05:36,440
Speaker 3: taste to what happens when you cross Trump.

97
00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:38,680
Speaker 1: Are we all ready for this? Here you go?

98
00:05:39,839 --> 00:05:44,320
Speaker 3: Trump tweeted, or rather truthed, sorry on truth social of

99
00:05:44,640 --> 00:05:48,320
Speaker 3: A vote for Viveke is a wasted vote. I like Viveke,

100
00:05:48,400 --> 00:05:51,240
Speaker 3: but he played it too cute with the caucus tonight.

101
00:05:51,760 --> 00:05:54,359
Speaker 3: Vote for Donald Trump. Build up the numbers in November.

102
00:05:54,800 --> 00:05:58,200
Speaker 3: We must take back our very troubled nation a nation

103
00:05:58,320 --> 00:06:02,560
Speaker 3: and decline. Actually this isn't even the worst. Uh there's

104
00:06:02,560 --> 00:06:03,160
Speaker 3: another truth.

105
00:06:03,200 --> 00:06:03,560
Speaker 1: I didn't know.

106
00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:05,400
Speaker 3: This is a second one, A nation decline back from

107
00:06:05,440 --> 00:06:09,640
Speaker 3: crooked Joe Biden. But he tweeted out I keep saying,

108
00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:14,720
Speaker 3: tweeted he truthed out Clay. Essentially the big the big

109
00:06:14,760 --> 00:06:18,760
Speaker 3: headline was the Veke is not maga. That is what

110
00:06:18,800 --> 00:06:21,400
Speaker 3: he says after all of this. What do you make

111
00:06:21,440 --> 00:06:23,479
Speaker 3: of that? I mean, should we just have expected this

112
00:06:23,640 --> 00:06:24,000
Speaker 3: was coming?

113
00:06:25,200 --> 00:06:29,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, Look I've got the actual truth I think in

114
00:06:29,640 --> 00:06:32,320
Speaker 2: front of me right now. The Veke started his campaign

115
00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:38,360
Speaker 2: as a great supporter, the best president in generations, et cetera. Unfortunately,

116
00:06:38,520 --> 00:06:41,640
Speaker 2: now all he does is disguise his support in the

117
00:06:41,800 --> 00:06:46,960
Speaker 2: form of deceitful campaign tricks. Very sly, but a vote

118
00:06:46,960 --> 00:06:50,760
Speaker 2: for Theveke is a vote for the other side. Don't

119
00:06:50,839 --> 00:06:55,480
Speaker 2: don't get duped by this vote for Trump. Don't waste

120
00:06:55,600 --> 00:06:58,560
Speaker 2: your vote. The Veke is not Maga.

121
00:06:59,360 --> 00:06:59,720
Speaker 1: Okay.

122
00:06:59,800 --> 00:07:05,040
Speaker 2: So so that is a direct attack. And we said

123
00:07:05,080 --> 00:07:08,160
Speaker 2: at some point that this might happen. And you mentioned

124
00:07:08,720 --> 00:07:13,000
Speaker 2: the idea of Trump grabbing Nikki Hayley as his VP.

125
00:07:13,680 --> 00:07:17,320
Speaker 2: And there are people out there in Trump world who say, no,

126
00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:18,920
Speaker 2: we will not stand for this.

127
00:07:19,080 --> 00:07:19,360
Speaker 1: Buck.

128
00:07:19,720 --> 00:07:24,160
Speaker 2: Yes, they will anything Trump does, they will defend. Because

129
00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:28,280
Speaker 2: it was like a light switch. Everybody by and large

130
00:07:28,280 --> 00:07:31,960
Speaker 2: had been pretty positive in Trump world about Viveke. The

131
00:07:32,160 --> 00:07:37,280
Speaker 2: second this truth post went out. Suddenly Vivike was awful.

132
00:07:37,680 --> 00:07:41,600
Speaker 2: It was like Trump had ordered the code red on Viveke,

133
00:07:42,280 --> 00:07:45,400
Speaker 2: and I think Vivike I saw his response, which I

134
00:07:45,440 --> 00:07:46,360
Speaker 2: thought was solid.

135
00:07:46,400 --> 00:07:48,160
Speaker 1: But you've been hitting on this for some time.

136
00:07:48,720 --> 00:07:51,960
Speaker 2: At some point, if you are Vivike, Trump is the

137
00:07:52,040 --> 00:07:55,800
Speaker 2: greatest president of my life, effectively is what he said.

138
00:07:55,920 --> 00:07:57,360
Speaker 1: But I can be better.

139
00:07:58,040 --> 00:08:01,560
Speaker 2: At some point if he became a you knew Trump

140
00:08:01,680 --> 00:08:03,200
Speaker 2: was going to take a shot at him. To me,

141
00:08:03,760 --> 00:08:06,400
Speaker 2: this is Viveke potentially going to get ten percent or

142
00:08:06,440 --> 00:08:09,000
Speaker 2: so in Iowa, and Trump is looking at that and

143
00:08:09,080 --> 00:08:12,080
Speaker 2: saying that might be the difference between me having a

144
00:08:12,120 --> 00:08:15,120
Speaker 2: true landslide or not. Also not only in Iowa but

145
00:08:15,160 --> 00:08:18,679
Speaker 2: also New Hampshire and sort of throwing a brushback pitch

146
00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:19,600
Speaker 2: at Viveke.

147
00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:23,480
Speaker 3: At some point the shark becomes tired. I don't I

148
00:08:23,520 --> 00:08:28,720
Speaker 3: don't say that without respect for the fact that Viveke

149
00:08:28,960 --> 00:08:32,240
Speaker 3: is a is a phenomenal communicator, and you and I

150
00:08:32,280 --> 00:08:35,560
Speaker 3: are guys who make a living communicating. He's at the

151
00:08:35,600 --> 00:08:38,439
Speaker 3: top tier in terms of his ability to debate and

152
00:08:38,559 --> 00:08:41,640
Speaker 3: to to handle things you know that are thrown at

153
00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:45,240
Speaker 3: him on the fly better than you know, almost any

154
00:08:45,240 --> 00:08:47,880
Speaker 3: other political candidate. I mean, Ron is very good as well.

155
00:08:47,920 --> 00:08:50,839
Speaker 3: He doesn't have quite the same rhetorical flourish sometimes that

156
00:08:50,840 --> 00:08:54,960
Speaker 3: that Viveke does, the same passion. But here's here's what

157
00:08:55,000 --> 00:08:58,000
Speaker 3: I'm seeing. This was always the fundamental flaw. And this

158
00:08:58,040 --> 00:09:00,280
Speaker 3: is what I said to people along. I said, you

159
00:09:00,320 --> 00:09:03,520
Speaker 3: can't say vote for me. I'm the guy, but the

160
00:09:03,600 --> 00:09:06,480
Speaker 3: other guy who's already had the job, was amazing and perfect.

161
00:09:06,920 --> 00:09:10,000
Speaker 3: It just it eventually collapses in on itself. And that's

162
00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:12,400
Speaker 3: exactly when I said this last summer. That's exactly what's

163
00:09:12,440 --> 00:09:16,080
Speaker 3: happened now because you can only have one president and

164
00:09:16,320 --> 00:09:19,200
Speaker 3: Trump is realizing. I think that the ability that ten

165
00:09:19,240 --> 00:09:22,960
Speaker 3: percentage points makes, you know, could make a difference, especially

166
00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:26,760
Speaker 3: in these early contests, about perception about how everything is going.

167
00:09:27,800 --> 00:09:30,440
Speaker 3: So also to your point about people changing their minds

168
00:09:30,440 --> 00:09:33,280
Speaker 3: about Vivek, you know one thing, especially as things have

169
00:09:33,320 --> 00:09:35,880
Speaker 3: gotten close here, it's a lot of heat being thrown

170
00:09:35,960 --> 00:09:36,360
Speaker 3: our way.

171
00:09:36,880 --> 00:09:38,000
Speaker 1: Also, it's fascinating.

172
00:09:38,080 --> 00:09:40,719
Speaker 3: I want all the people that say Rush would have

173
00:09:40,840 --> 00:09:44,080
Speaker 3: endorsed Trump to have the argument with all the people

174
00:09:44,120 --> 00:09:47,560
Speaker 3: who are saying Rush would have endorsed Disantis, and also

175
00:09:47,720 --> 00:09:49,520
Speaker 3: argue with all the people who are saying Rush would

176
00:09:49,520 --> 00:09:53,720
Speaker 3: have endorsed Nikki Haley because he actually would have endorsed nobody,

177
00:09:53,760 --> 00:09:55,520
Speaker 3: which is what we have done here. And we know

178
00:09:55,640 --> 00:09:57,679
Speaker 3: this from over thirty years of being the best in

179
00:09:57,800 --> 00:10:02,120
Speaker 3: radio and building you know, this house that we now

180
00:10:02,160 --> 00:10:06,000
Speaker 3: try to continue to serve. But it's been kind of funny, Clay,

181
00:10:06,080 --> 00:10:08,560
Speaker 3: because people are They're all saying, oh, you know this

182
00:10:08,679 --> 00:10:11,120
Speaker 3: last minute push vote for my guy, or push for

183
00:10:11,240 --> 00:10:13,840
Speaker 3: my guy. And people have got a little nasty about

184
00:10:13,840 --> 00:10:17,760
Speaker 3: some of the candidates. You know, there are some people

185
00:10:17,760 --> 00:10:20,760
Speaker 3: that have switched from Viveke is amazing to Theveke is

186
00:10:21,240 --> 00:10:24,679
Speaker 3: fake in twenty four hours. And I just hope everybody

187
00:10:24,720 --> 00:10:28,240
Speaker 3: listening notices we don't trash DeSantis here. We don't trash

188
00:10:28,280 --> 00:10:31,240
Speaker 3: Trump here. We speak honestly about people that we think

189
00:10:31,320 --> 00:10:34,160
Speaker 3: are exceptional in the field, and we try to present

190
00:10:34,280 --> 00:10:36,760
Speaker 3: different points in points of view. Right, but that's a

191
00:10:36,760 --> 00:10:38,839
Speaker 3: different thing. I've never sat here, You've never sat here

192
00:10:38,840 --> 00:10:44,000
Speaker 3: and said, you know, Trump can't win, or DeSantis is

193
00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:46,439
Speaker 3: a rhino or what you know. We let the people

194
00:10:46,480 --> 00:10:48,840
Speaker 3: decide who are listening to this. I'm seeing people that

195
00:10:48,960 --> 00:10:52,600
Speaker 3: were very pro Vivake all of a sudden say things

196
00:10:52,640 --> 00:10:54,840
Speaker 3: about him that make you think, oh, so it was

197
00:10:54,880 --> 00:10:56,719
Speaker 3: all just whatever they were told to say.

198
00:10:56,960 --> 00:10:59,560
Speaker 2: Yes, And I think there's a lot of that in general,

199
00:10:59,600 --> 00:11:03,880
Speaker 2: and I would just I always think of the politics

200
00:11:03,679 --> 00:11:08,200
Speaker 2: as sports, but with hardly any actual games. And that's

201
00:11:08,240 --> 00:11:10,800
Speaker 2: where it's more difficult, because you can make an argument

202
00:11:11,280 --> 00:11:14,440
Speaker 2: about anything in sports, and then the game's played and

203
00:11:15,120 --> 00:11:17,079
Speaker 2: you either own the result.

204
00:11:16,880 --> 00:11:18,120
Speaker 1: Or you look like an imbecile.

205
00:11:19,120 --> 00:11:22,120
Speaker 2: And finally we're getting the game played right, we're getting

206
00:11:22,160 --> 00:11:25,160
Speaker 2: the actual tangible results that will be coming in in

207
00:11:25,200 --> 00:11:28,360
Speaker 2: about seven or eight hours, they'll start rolling in, and

208
00:11:28,960 --> 00:11:32,760
Speaker 2: that is when everybody has to assess where exactly their

209
00:11:32,760 --> 00:11:36,240
Speaker 2: candidates are. And there is a world right now where

210
00:11:36,520 --> 00:11:41,240
Speaker 2: Ron DeSantis late tonight is proclaiming victory because he kept

211
00:11:41,280 --> 00:11:44,280
Speaker 2: it a lot closer against Trump than anybody expected, and

212
00:11:44,360 --> 00:11:46,760
Speaker 2: he lost by ten or fifteen or whatever the math

213
00:11:46,880 --> 00:11:49,200
Speaker 2: might end up being, but he feels like he's going

214
00:11:49,240 --> 00:11:53,079
Speaker 2: to get a real, uh you know, landslide rolling into

215
00:11:53,559 --> 00:11:56,319
Speaker 2: New Hampshire. There is also a world where Nicki Haley

216
00:11:56,400 --> 00:11:59,959
Speaker 2: late tonight, Buck comes out and says, there's only one alternate.

217
00:12:00,400 --> 00:12:00,760
Speaker 1: It's me.

218
00:12:01,240 --> 00:12:03,880
Speaker 2: I came in second in Iowa. Nobody thought I would

219
00:12:03,920 --> 00:12:06,520
Speaker 2: do that. Now it's on to New Hampshire, and we

220
00:12:06,640 --> 00:12:10,240
Speaker 2: will react based on what all of you in Iowa

221
00:12:10,280 --> 00:12:12,360
Speaker 2: are doing. Let me just say this, I'm gonna hammer this,

222
00:12:12,400 --> 00:12:14,200
Speaker 2: You're gonna hammer this, but I think this is important.

223
00:12:14,200 --> 00:12:14,720
Speaker 1: Go vote.

224
00:12:15,400 --> 00:12:18,040
Speaker 2: For all of the time that so many of you

225
00:12:18,160 --> 00:12:20,880
Speaker 2: out there jump on social media and you argue and

226
00:12:20,920 --> 00:12:23,480
Speaker 2: you get fired up and everything else, all of us

227
00:12:23,800 --> 00:12:27,439
Speaker 2: only have one vote Iowa right now, Buck, there's only

228
00:12:27,440 --> 00:12:30,680
Speaker 2: about two hundred thousand people who are going to set

229
00:12:30,720 --> 00:12:34,800
Speaker 2: the national agenda for what the Republican primary might look

230
00:12:34,880 --> 00:12:37,760
Speaker 2: like going forward for the next several months, and who

231
00:12:37,800 --> 00:12:40,000
Speaker 2: the eventual nominee is going to be. That is an

232
00:12:40,080 --> 00:12:42,960
Speaker 2: incredible privilege for you. If you are listening to us

233
00:12:42,960 --> 00:12:45,680
Speaker 2: in Iowa right now, I know it's incredibly cold, but

234
00:12:45,800 --> 00:12:48,920
Speaker 2: only two hundred thousand of you get the opportunity, potentially

235
00:12:48,960 --> 00:12:51,920
Speaker 2: maybe less, to set the entire agenda of the nation.

236
00:12:52,520 --> 00:12:55,200
Speaker 2: Please take the opportunity to go out and advocate for

237
00:12:55,280 --> 00:12:58,240
Speaker 2: whomever you believe is the best. And you probably have

238
00:12:58,360 --> 00:13:00,720
Speaker 2: gotten the luxury of being able to meet these guys

239
00:13:00,800 --> 00:13:02,680
Speaker 2: or gals face to face. You've been able to go

240
00:13:02,720 --> 00:13:05,480
Speaker 2: see them talk. You can judge them far better than

241
00:13:05,520 --> 00:13:08,000
Speaker 2: the average person can. You've seen them on the trail.

242
00:13:08,360 --> 00:13:11,040
Speaker 2: I can't wait to see the actual results coming in tonight.

243
00:13:12,280 --> 00:13:12,760
Speaker 1: Same here.

244
00:13:12,880 --> 00:13:16,320
Speaker 3: One thing that I would also add into the background

245
00:13:16,360 --> 00:13:18,120
Speaker 3: of this discussion. As you're saying everybody should go, I

246
00:13:18,120 --> 00:13:19,360
Speaker 3: guess we should tell them and I have to go.

247
00:13:19,400 --> 00:13:25,400
Speaker 1: Caucus, right, is that the voting you're voting? Show up?

248
00:13:25,480 --> 00:13:27,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah, you got a caucus and then you

249
00:13:27,080 --> 00:13:29,800
Speaker 3: can vote, you know, show it up for the caucus tonight.

250
00:13:30,520 --> 00:13:32,120
Speaker 1: Here's one thing to keep in mind, and I'll give

251
00:13:32,160 --> 00:13:32,840
Speaker 1: you the numbers. Play.

252
00:13:32,960 --> 00:13:34,680
Speaker 3: I'll give them the numbers right when we come back.

253
00:13:35,559 --> 00:13:39,479
Speaker 3: Is anyone to guess of the three top tier Republican candidates,

254
00:13:39,920 --> 00:13:44,560
Speaker 3: how many of them comfortably beat Joe Biden based on

255
00:13:44,679 --> 00:13:47,520
Speaker 3: polling and swing states, based on the states that really

256
00:13:47,559 --> 00:13:50,400
Speaker 3: are going to determine things for this election. And you

257
00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:54,880
Speaker 3: want to take a guess three for three Haley, DeSantis,

258
00:13:54,960 --> 00:13:58,120
Speaker 3: Trump all beating Biden. Right now, we can give you

259
00:13:58,160 --> 00:14:00,360
Speaker 3: some of those numbers. And what this means coming up

260
00:14:00,360 --> 00:14:01,120
Speaker 3: here in a moment.

261
00:14:01,480 --> 00:14:01,880
Speaker 1: No doubt.

262
00:14:01,960 --> 00:14:03,880
Speaker 2: Look, also, a lot of you going to be watching

263
00:14:03,960 --> 00:14:05,760
Speaker 2: the NFL because we got buck I don't even know

264
00:14:05,760 --> 00:14:08,800
Speaker 2: if you saw this. They moved the Buffalo bills game

265
00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:14,319
Speaker 2: in Buffalo from yesterday to today over crazy weather conditions

266
00:14:14,720 --> 00:14:17,720
Speaker 2: and as a result, I also hope some of you

267
00:14:17,760 --> 00:14:19,160
Speaker 2: hopped on board with this one.

268
00:14:19,280 --> 00:14:21,760
Speaker 1: I gave you out a prize picks play.

269
00:14:22,200 --> 00:14:24,440
Speaker 2: I said, hey, this thing will hit ten to one

270
00:14:24,720 --> 00:14:27,440
Speaker 2: if we get all of these things to happen. And

271
00:14:27,920 --> 00:14:29,560
Speaker 2: I came out and I said, look, I like Joe

272
00:14:29,600 --> 00:14:32,400
Speaker 2: Flacco to throw for more yards than he's projected. I

273
00:14:32,520 --> 00:14:34,440
Speaker 2: like David n Joku his tight end to go for

274
00:14:34,520 --> 00:14:37,600
Speaker 2: more yards. I like for Tyreek Hill to go under

275
00:14:37,720 --> 00:14:40,720
Speaker 2: on his receiving yards. Guess what we went three for

276
00:14:40,920 --> 00:14:44,440
Speaker 2: three in those prize picks. If you went along with us,

277
00:14:44,800 --> 00:14:49,360
Speaker 2: you have now doubled your money plus and tonight, if

278
00:14:49,520 --> 00:14:53,200
Speaker 2: Josh Allen doesn't throw for as many yards as is projected,

279
00:14:53,680 --> 00:14:56,440
Speaker 2: then you will make ten x your money.

280
00:14:56,960 --> 00:14:58,760
Speaker 1: You can also hedge it right now.

281
00:14:58,920 --> 00:15:01,360
Speaker 2: But if you put down ten, that means you've gotten

282
00:15:01,400 --> 00:15:04,080
Speaker 2: back twenty five. You put down one hundred, that means

283
00:15:04,120 --> 00:15:07,800
Speaker 2: you've gotten back two fifty already, and you might be

284
00:15:07,840 --> 00:15:10,200
Speaker 2: able to get back a thousand a lot of fun.

285
00:15:10,480 --> 00:15:12,400
Speaker 1: They'll match your money. There's no risk.

Speaker 3: on the two hundred and thirty six yards Clay.

319
00:16:40,040 --> 00:16:41,760
Speaker 3: All Right, so we talked about this, We tease this

320
00:16:41,800 --> 00:16:44,480
Speaker 3: a second ago, right before our little break there, and

321
00:16:44,560 --> 00:16:49,040
Speaker 3: I just think you need to hear this because you know,

322
00:16:49,120 --> 00:16:51,800
Speaker 3: I don't do the overconfidence thing when it comes to politics.

323
00:16:52,120 --> 00:16:55,560
Speaker 3: I always want to leave room for surprises, leave room

324
00:16:55,600 --> 00:16:59,400
Speaker 3: for cheating, leave room for crazy. But you gotta see

325
00:16:59,400 --> 00:17:03,320
Speaker 3: this and come thinking, Uh, this is panic time for Democrats.

326
00:17:03,360 --> 00:17:07,919
Speaker 3: Clay CBS poll here, CBS you Gov poll choice for

327
00:17:08,000 --> 00:17:12,280
Speaker 3: president of likely voters in this election Biden forty five,

328
00:17:12,680 --> 00:17:18,160
Speaker 3: Haley fifty three, DeSantis fifty one to Biden's forty eight.

329
00:17:18,640 --> 00:17:23,880
Speaker 3: Trump fifty to Biden's forty eight, losing against all three

330
00:17:23,960 --> 00:17:28,119
Speaker 3: Republicans trounced by Haley. Does that make a difference to

331
00:17:28,160 --> 00:17:28,880
Speaker 3: people right now?

332
00:17:29,760 --> 00:17:32,239
Speaker 2: I think Vivek would beat Biden too, which is what

333
00:17:32,280 --> 00:17:35,159
Speaker 2: I've been saying for a while. So far, the story

334
00:17:35,240 --> 00:17:38,240
Speaker 2: is Biden's weakness even more than it is the strengths

335
00:17:38,240 --> 00:17:40,400
Speaker 2: of any of these candidates, and I think it's got

336
00:17:40,480 --> 00:17:44,320
Speaker 2: Democrats terrified. The data just doesn't keep getting better ten

337
00:17:44,359 --> 00:17:46,919
Speaker 2: months out. Buck at some point they have to hit

338
00:17:46,920 --> 00:17:51,800
Speaker 2: the panic button. True, something's going on here. Biden's gonna

339
00:17:51,800 --> 00:17:52,439
Speaker 2: have to do something.

340
00:17:52,680 --> 00:17:55,440

Speaker 2: A two buck it Also, I know it's super cold

369
00:19:07,359 --> 00:19:09,880
Speaker 2: in Iowa, as you can well see everybody standing outside

370
00:19:09,920 --> 00:19:14,520
Speaker 2: doing their their hits freezing. It's actually snowing as we

371
00:19:14,600 --> 00:19:17,720
Speaker 2: speak here in Nashville, which does not happen very often.

372
00:19:17,760 --> 00:19:20,320
Speaker 2: We got about six inches on the ground and it's

373
00:19:20,400 --> 00:19:23,720
Speaker 2: so cold outside. My kids. If you hear screaming in

374
00:19:23,760 --> 00:19:26,840
Speaker 2: the background. I promise everybody's fine, but no kids in school.

375
00:19:26,880 --> 00:19:29,800
Speaker 2: It's Mlkday. They were out anyway, but they are all

376
00:19:29,920 --> 00:19:34,080
Speaker 2: running around playing snow football, sledding. The Travis Boys all

377
00:19:34,119 --> 00:19:35,800
Speaker 2: out in about and all the kids in the neighborhood

378
00:19:35,840 --> 00:19:36,720
Speaker 2: running through the house.

379
00:19:37,080 --> 00:19:38,360
Speaker 1: Buck. It's so cold though.

380
00:19:38,359 --> 00:19:41,440
Speaker 2: I came downstairs right after doing a Fox News hit

381
00:19:41,480 --> 00:19:44,800
Speaker 2: with Harris Faulkner, and my thirteen year old, as many

382
00:19:44,920 --> 00:19:48,280
Speaker 2: kids are often do, had left the front door open,

383
00:19:48,840 --> 00:19:53,400
Speaker 2: and so it's freezing. But I looked outside and our cats,

384
00:19:53,760 --> 00:19:57,960
Speaker 2: who usually rush outside at the first opportunity, they took

385
00:19:58,040 --> 00:20:01,280
Speaker 2: like two or three steps outside, immediately turned around and

386
00:20:01,359 --> 00:20:04,400
Speaker 2: ran right back inside. They had never seen snow here

387
00:20:04,480 --> 00:20:07,879
Speaker 2: before and probably didn't like it on their paws, but

388
00:20:08,520 --> 00:20:11,359
Speaker 2: immediately turned around and ran back inside. So that is

389
00:20:11,920 --> 00:20:15,080
Speaker 2: that is one positive there. If you've got animals, they're

390
00:20:15,080 --> 00:20:17,240
Speaker 2: probably not trying to rush out the doors right now.

391
00:20:17,560 --> 00:20:21,040
Speaker 1: It's frigid everywhere. It feels like in the country.

392
00:20:21,119 --> 00:20:23,920
Speaker 2: Even I don't know what's timpture in Miami today, it's

393
00:20:23,960 --> 00:20:25,359
Speaker 2: like seventy five and sunny for you.

394
00:20:25,840 --> 00:20:28,959
Speaker 3: Oh no, it's uh, it's let me see, I'll tell you.

395
00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:32,000
Speaker 3: It's like a brisk Oh no, it's a brisk seventy

396
00:20:32,080 --> 00:20:32,680
Speaker 3: nine degrees.

397
00:20:33,040 --> 00:20:38,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, I saw, even though you're in South Florida, even

398
00:20:38,280 --> 00:20:42,959
Speaker 2: up like it's cold in Texas, Dallas really cold, Houston cold.

399
00:20:43,359 --> 00:20:46,160
Speaker 2: Even on the Panhandle of Florida it's super cold where

400
00:20:46,240 --> 00:20:49,480
Speaker 2: we spend a lot of time down there. So basically

401
00:20:49,560 --> 00:20:53,520
Speaker 2: everywhere in the country except for where Buck is freezing

402
00:20:53,680 --> 00:20:57,960
Speaker 2: right now and many parts of the country dealing with big,

403
00:20:58,200 --> 00:21:01,359
Speaker 2: big snowfall. We've got a call online that I wanted

404
00:21:01,400 --> 00:21:05,280
Speaker 2: to hit because he's actually Andy in what he says

405
00:21:05,400 --> 00:21:10,639
Speaker 2: is rural Scott County, Iowa. Andy, you are undecided and

406
00:21:10,720 --> 00:21:14,200
Speaker 2: you are going to the caucus tonight in your community.

407
00:21:14,680 --> 00:21:18,399
Speaker 2: How would you rank your your contenders right now? And

408
00:21:18,440 --> 00:21:20,679
Speaker 2: when you say you're undecided, does that mean what is

409
00:21:20,800 --> 00:21:24,120
Speaker 2: said by because they're allowed to give little speeches advocating

410
00:21:24,240 --> 00:21:28,240
Speaker 2: for different different candidates, Does that mean you could be

411
00:21:28,320 --> 00:21:31,439
Speaker 2: swayed by that? What are what's the deciding factor for you?

412
00:21:31,520 --> 00:21:33,720
Speaker 2: I think it's interesting that you would go to the

413
00:21:33,760 --> 00:21:36,760
Speaker 2: caucus and literally be undecided when you walk in.

414
00:21:36,840 --> 00:21:39,640
Speaker 1: Thanks for calling, Yeah, thanks.

415
00:21:39,400 --> 00:21:42,439
Speaker 5: For taking my call. Pure and simple. My votes gay

416
00:21:42,480 --> 00:21:44,520
Speaker 5: based upon who I think is going to win the general.

417
00:21:45,560 --> 00:21:48,600
Speaker 5: I caucused for Trump in twenty sixteen, in twenty twenty.

418
00:21:49,119 --> 00:21:51,560
Speaker 5: But there's one thing that's really that I think that

419
00:21:51,600 --> 00:21:54,399
Speaker 5: these polls are missing, especially the ones at my church,

420
00:21:54,480 --> 00:21:57,040
Speaker 5: Like I know that there's that they say Trump's the nominee,

421
00:21:57,040 --> 00:21:58,800
Speaker 5: that they're not going to vote prim in the general

422
00:21:59,240 --> 00:22:02,040
Speaker 5: and in a swing eight that's a big problem for me.

423
00:22:02,640 --> 00:22:05,880
Speaker 5: So my vote is for this tonight is basically who

424
00:22:05,920 --> 00:22:08,520
Speaker 5: I think is gonna win. Who's who? Who is our

425
00:22:08,560 --> 00:22:10,159
Speaker 5: best chance to win the general election?

426
00:22:10,760 --> 00:22:10,879
Speaker 4: Well?

427
00:22:10,920 --> 00:22:13,000
Speaker 3: Andy, Andy, can I ask you, what do you make

428
00:22:13,040 --> 00:22:14,960
Speaker 3: Andy of the polls that say we just we just

429
00:22:15,000 --> 00:22:18,919
Speaker 3: read one off on the air that that clearly and

430
00:22:18,920 --> 00:22:20,880
Speaker 3: this has been the case for months, So this isn't

431
00:22:20,920 --> 00:22:22,240
Speaker 3: a new phenomenon.

432
00:22:23,040 --> 00:22:23,840
Speaker 1: Nicky Haley.

433
00:22:23,920 --> 00:22:26,359
Speaker 3: If you're talking about electability in a general, I'm just

434
00:22:26,400 --> 00:22:29,040
Speaker 3: saying the polls, I'm not I'm not making a sort

435
00:22:29,080 --> 00:22:32,760
Speaker 3: of qualitative judgment. But Nicky Haley beats Biden by six

436
00:22:32,800 --> 00:22:33,679
Speaker 3: What does that say to you?

437
00:22:35,119 --> 00:22:38,120
Speaker 5: I totally understand that. But I think the Bank really

438
00:22:38,160 --> 00:22:40,600
Speaker 5: destroyed Nicky Haley in the last I really do think

439
00:22:40,640 --> 00:22:43,320
Speaker 5: she's a warmonger, and I really don't want to see

440
00:22:43,320 --> 00:22:47,280
Speaker 5: our nation and moars. So that's why I'm leading a

441
00:22:47,359 --> 00:22:50,200
Speaker 5: kind of against her. But if I had to rank them,

442
00:22:50,240 --> 00:22:53,040
Speaker 5: my choice and say number one be the standis, Number

443
00:22:53,040 --> 00:22:55,959
Speaker 5: two would be Trump, three of the Vake, and then

444
00:22:56,040 --> 00:22:56,959
Speaker 5: four would be Haley.

445
00:22:57,560 --> 00:22:59,560
Speaker 3: How long do you think you'll be How long is

446
00:22:59,640 --> 00:23:01,320
Speaker 3: it gonna take you to be in this caucaus? By

447
00:23:01,320 --> 00:23:02,560
Speaker 3: the way, bring us into that a little bit. I

448
00:23:02,560 --> 00:23:04,400
Speaker 3: assume you've done this before. I mean, how many hours

449
00:23:04,400 --> 00:23:04,800
Speaker 3: are you going.

450
00:23:04,720 --> 00:23:05,160
Speaker 1: To be there?

451
00:23:06,040 --> 00:23:09,200
Speaker 5: It's usually well, usually what happens is you go there.

452
00:23:09,680 --> 00:23:11,439
Speaker 5: You know, they get everybody in and then there's like

453
00:23:11,480 --> 00:23:14,119
Speaker 5: a speech. There's a speech. There's like four or five people.

454
00:23:14,520 --> 00:23:17,680
Speaker 5: They give a speech free scan like Trump. Somebody talks

455
00:23:17,680 --> 00:23:21,520
Speaker 5: about Trump, somebody talks about Haley, somebody talks about the vake,

456
00:23:21,920 --> 00:23:24,760
Speaker 5: somebody will talk about the Santus. And then you vote,

457
00:23:25,080 --> 00:23:26,840
Speaker 5: and then based on that vote, it gets sent to

458
00:23:26,880 --> 00:23:28,800
Speaker 5: the state and that's what gets reported to the media.

459
00:23:29,400 --> 00:23:32,040
Speaker 5: And then after that vote, there's also something called a

460
00:23:32,080 --> 00:23:34,560
Speaker 5: party platform, which personally, I think is a waste of

461
00:23:34,600 --> 00:23:37,600
Speaker 5: time because I know people in DC really don't care

462
00:23:37,640 --> 00:23:40,159
Speaker 5: about our party platform. You know, you put like, you know,

463
00:23:40,200 --> 00:23:43,440
Speaker 5: we want the Second Amendment to be strengthened. We we're

464
00:23:43,520 --> 00:23:46,680
Speaker 5: pro life, we want low taxes, we want social security

465
00:23:46,680 --> 00:23:49,600
Speaker 5: and medicare, you know, taking care of I mean those

466
00:23:49,640 --> 00:23:51,400
Speaker 5: are the type of things. You vote on them. Then

467
00:23:51,400 --> 00:23:52,920
Speaker 5: you go to the county and then there's like a

468
00:23:52,960 --> 00:23:54,879
Speaker 5: state I believe I haven't gotten me.

469
00:23:55,119 --> 00:23:57,399
Speaker 2: So you said you voted for Trump in sixteen and

470
00:23:57,520 --> 00:24:00,840
Speaker 2: twenty and you're inclined to vote for DESANTUS twenty four.

471
00:24:01,600 --> 00:24:01,719
Speaker 6: Uh.

472
00:24:02,000 --> 00:24:02,160
Speaker 5: Yes.

473
00:24:02,640 --> 00:24:05,320
Speaker 2: When you're standing there and they they bring out the

474
00:24:05,600 --> 00:24:09,320
Speaker 2: uh they bring out the actual tallies. Uh is that

475
00:24:09,400 --> 00:24:12,240
Speaker 2: pretty cool to watch? Because my understanding is everybody just

476
00:24:12,280 --> 00:24:14,840
Speaker 2: writes basically on a piece of paper, and then you

477
00:24:14,880 --> 00:24:16,920
Speaker 2: sit there and you watch as they count out all

478
00:24:16,920 --> 00:24:18,880
Speaker 2: the different votes. That would be pretty cool, I would

479
00:24:18,880 --> 00:24:19,639
Speaker 2: think to be a part of.

480
00:24:20,600 --> 00:24:22,840
Speaker 5: Yeah. So back in twenty sixteen, the ballot was a

481
00:24:22,840 --> 00:24:25,639
Speaker 5: post it note, and then in twenty twenty it was

482
00:24:25,720 --> 00:24:27,800
Speaker 5: like and obviously Trump wasn't, I mean he was, there's

483
00:24:27,800 --> 00:24:30,159
Speaker 5: people run against Trump, but like the one that I

484
00:24:30,240 --> 00:24:32,600
Speaker 5: went to, I mean everybody was like, like eighty nothing

485
00:24:32,880 --> 00:24:36,000
Speaker 5: favorite Trump, so't even he didn't even do a ballot, Yeah,

486
00:24:36,560 --> 00:24:38,560
Speaker 5: eighty nothing Trump. Send it on and then we did

487
00:24:38,560 --> 00:24:42,000
Speaker 5: the party platform and that party platform stuff. Like I said,

488
00:24:42,000 --> 00:24:44,080
Speaker 5: it's to me, it's just a waste of time because

489
00:24:44,119 --> 00:24:46,800
Speaker 5: no one really reads them unfortunately, or well where our

490
00:24:46,840 --> 00:24:49,000
Speaker 5: politicians are every I mean, everyone knows about this.

491
00:24:49,160 --> 00:24:51,400
Speaker 2: But so let me ask you this, Andy, how many

492
00:24:51,400 --> 00:24:55,800
Speaker 2: people do you think are legitimately undecided walking into their

493
00:24:55,800 --> 00:24:58,480
Speaker 2: caucus site tonight. Do you think that's a common thing

494
00:24:58,640 --> 00:25:00,600
Speaker 2: or do you think you're in the minor when you

495
00:25:00,600 --> 00:25:03,000
Speaker 2: say you've got your ranking done right now? I'm just

496
00:25:03,080 --> 00:25:05,000
Speaker 2: kind of curious what the vibe is in general.

497
00:25:05,240 --> 00:25:07,800
Speaker 5: No, that's a good question. I think I'm in the minority.

498
00:25:07,840 --> 00:25:09,439
Speaker 5: I think I know there's a lot of people that

499
00:25:09,480 --> 00:25:13,600
Speaker 5: are gone called for Trump. I just I think he's

500
00:25:13,640 --> 00:25:16,080
Speaker 5: gonna win it hand, you know, walk away with it tonight.

501
00:25:16,119 --> 00:25:19,800
Speaker 5: But I'm also kind of curious to see how accurate

502
00:25:19,880 --> 00:25:23,119
Speaker 5: is the polling versus what the actual results are. You know,

503
00:25:23,160 --> 00:25:26,840
Speaker 5: if ye Trump wins by say, fifty sixty points, obviously

504
00:25:26,840 --> 00:25:29,280
Speaker 5: the polls were, you know, put them underneath. But if

505
00:25:29,320 --> 00:25:32,360
Speaker 5: only wins, like, say by twenty thirty points, then all

506
00:25:32,400 --> 00:25:34,639
Speaker 5: these polls, which I know that you're quoting left and

507
00:25:34,720 --> 00:25:37,880
Speaker 5: right are really suspicious to me, And I know, it's

508
00:25:37,880 --> 00:25:40,280
Speaker 5: like what a previous color called. But he said, you know,

509
00:25:40,359 --> 00:25:44,680
Speaker 5: the polls are made to not reflect opinion, but.

510
00:25:44,680 --> 00:25:49,720
Speaker 1: To shape it. Yeah, yeah, thank you for the thank

511
00:25:49,800 --> 00:25:50,320
Speaker 1: you for the call.

512
00:25:50,600 --> 00:25:52,760
Speaker 2: I we get a lot of people who say that,

513
00:25:52,920 --> 00:25:54,960
Speaker 2: I just if all of the poll thank you for

514
00:25:55,000 --> 00:25:56,679
Speaker 2: the call. Like I said, but if all of the

515
00:25:56,760 --> 00:25:59,560
Speaker 2: polls are telling us the same thing, which is Biden

516
00:25:59,640 --> 00:26:03,960
Speaker 2: is very week and many different Republican candidates are running

517
00:26:04,000 --> 00:26:08,199
Speaker 2: strongly against Biden, I don't believe that there is some

518
00:26:08,600 --> 00:26:15,960
Speaker 2: massive conspiracy theory designed to drive down Joe Biden's overall standing.

519
00:26:16,320 --> 00:26:17,000
Speaker 1: Look, people will.

520
00:26:16,920 --> 00:26:19,320
Speaker 3: Always say twenty sixteen, Clinton and I were just talking about

521
00:26:19,320 --> 00:26:22,760
Speaker 3: this a minute ago. Listen, but the polls were wrong. Well,

522
00:26:23,240 --> 00:26:29,159
Speaker 3: the analysis based on the polls was incredibly wrong. The

523
00:26:29,200 --> 00:26:31,240
Speaker 3: best example of this going back to twenty sixteen was

524
00:26:31,280 --> 00:26:34,119
Speaker 3: the New York Times on election Day saying ninety seven

525
00:26:34,200 --> 00:26:37,199
Speaker 3: percent chance that Hillary Clinton wins. If I told you

526
00:26:37,200 --> 00:26:39,840
Speaker 3: had a ninety seven percent chance of waking up tomorrow alive,

527
00:26:40,080 --> 00:26:42,080
Speaker 3: you'd probably sleep pretty well, right. I mean, you know,

528
00:26:42,080 --> 00:26:44,600
Speaker 3: you might be a little worried, but you'd be fine.

529
00:26:45,040 --> 00:26:47,879
Speaker 3: The issue wasn't actually the polling data necessarily because a

530
00:26:47,880 --> 00:26:51,760
Speaker 3: lot of the polls showed Hillary up to Hillary up three,

531
00:26:52,600 --> 00:26:55,640
Speaker 3: but the margin of error on these polls was plus

532
00:26:55,680 --> 00:26:57,600
Speaker 3: or minus one, plus or minus two. So I mean

533
00:26:57,640 --> 00:26:59,600
Speaker 3: they were off, but they weren't off by a lot.

534
00:27:00,640 --> 00:27:02,600
Speaker 3: For this to be not what we think it's going

535
00:27:02,680 --> 00:27:04,760
Speaker 3: to be, the polls would have to be off. And

536
00:27:05,160 --> 00:27:07,400
Speaker 3: we just said this, right, Clay, at least double digits

537
00:27:07,600 --> 00:27:11,600
Speaker 3: at least Yes, certainly, and so that's a massive miss.

538
00:27:11,600 --> 00:27:15,000
Speaker 3: I mean, that's a that would be an enormous across

539
00:27:15,040 --> 00:27:18,280
Speaker 3: the board with so to speak. And I just don't

540
00:27:18,320 --> 00:27:21,919
Speaker 3: think that that's likely to be the case. But to

541
00:27:22,080 --> 00:27:24,760
Speaker 3: the point we're making all we'll keep making it until

542
00:27:24,760 --> 00:27:25,439
Speaker 3: people vote.

543
00:27:26,040 --> 00:27:30,359
Speaker 1: They haven't voted. And one thing I will point out is.

544
00:27:32,000 --> 00:27:36,760
Speaker 2: Bucks by the way, Yeah, people vote. I will see

545
00:27:36,880 --> 00:27:40,760
Speaker 2: whether or not Trump gets over fifty percent, because that

546
00:27:40,880 --> 00:27:45,240
Speaker 2: will be somewhat indicative. If Trump gets over fifty percent

547
00:27:45,480 --> 00:27:49,919
Speaker 2: of the overall votes cast in Iowa, then you'll say, okay,

548
00:27:50,040 --> 00:27:54,320
Speaker 2: even with solid contention from Nikki, from from Ron and

549
00:27:54,359 --> 00:27:57,639
Speaker 2: from the veik he was able to get a majority.

550
00:27:57,960 --> 00:28:00,359
Speaker 2: If he doesn't, then I think there'll be people looking

551
00:28:00,359 --> 00:28:04,000
Speaker 2: and they are trying to dive into the numbers, and

552
00:28:04,040 --> 00:28:06,960
Speaker 2: that's where I think Trump's anger at Viveke could grow,

553
00:28:07,520 --> 00:28:12,120
Speaker 2: because if you're voting for Viveke, I would venture almost

554
00:28:12,200 --> 00:28:16,520
Speaker 2: everybody's number two choice is Donald Trump. Right, So Viveke

555
00:28:16,720 --> 00:28:19,600
Speaker 2: is basically taking whatever percentage of a ake ends up

556
00:28:19,640 --> 00:28:23,080
Speaker 2: with is votes. I think that would otherwise have gone

557
00:28:23,119 --> 00:28:25,600
Speaker 2: to Trump. Now maybe I'm wrong, maybe there's a small

558
00:28:25,600 --> 00:28:29,160
Speaker 2: handful that would vote for Nicki Haley or Ron DeSantis,

559
00:28:29,320 --> 00:28:31,480
Speaker 2: but it feels to me like, basically, if you're a

560
00:28:31,560 --> 00:28:35,480
Speaker 2: Vivike guy or gal, you're also a very big Trump supporter.

561
00:28:35,560 --> 00:28:37,640
Speaker 2: You might just want a younger version of Trump, which

562
00:28:37,680 --> 00:28:40,040
Speaker 2: is basically what Viveke has tried to argue that he is.

563
00:28:40,720 --> 00:28:42,800

568
00:28:55,320 --> 00:28:56,960
Speaker 2: in a way that casts doubt on the goodness of

Speaker 1: Welcome back in team.

589
00:29:49,640 --> 00:29:52,440
Speaker 3: Got so much we're going to talk about here, including

590
00:29:53,040 --> 00:29:56,640
Speaker 3: what's happening today Iowa Caucuses hour by hour. We'll bring

591
00:29:56,680 --> 00:29:58,760
Speaker 3: up speed with all the latest as we're hearing it.

592
00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:06,000
Speaker 3: And also this appearance by Fannie is Fannie the correct

593
00:30:06,080 --> 00:30:07,520
Speaker 3: is that what I don't know?

594
00:30:07,920 --> 00:30:11,080
Speaker 1: I think we should just yes, I have been saying everybody.

595
00:30:10,760 --> 00:30:13,200
Speaker 3: Any because I just that's phonetically how I would read it.

596
00:30:13,240 --> 00:30:15,760
Speaker 1: But I don't know. It could be Fannie Willis missus.

597
00:30:15,520 --> 00:30:18,640
Speaker 2: Willy, that that being a situation where maybe when you're

598
00:30:18,680 --> 00:30:22,280
Speaker 2: in grade school, being named Fanny is not necessarily the

599
00:30:22,400 --> 00:30:25,080
Speaker 2: easiest name to roll with. And so I think it's

600
00:30:25,120 --> 00:30:28,960
Speaker 2: kind of pronounced fawnie evidently, but that doesn't make sense

601
00:30:29,000 --> 00:30:32,600
Speaker 2: phonetically at all. Right, So, okay, so Fannie Willis, I

602
00:30:32,600 --> 00:30:34,400
Speaker 2: think we can just say she's Fanny on this show

603
00:30:34,440 --> 00:30:35,560
Speaker 2: because she's shown her behind.

604
00:30:36,240 --> 00:30:38,680
Speaker 1: That's a that's a dad joke. I think there. You

605
00:30:38,720 --> 00:30:41,800
Speaker 1: go to a lot of people, evident.

606
00:30:42,520 --> 00:30:46,760
Speaker 3: Good Evans Clay. So, so she is the one who's

607
00:30:46,840 --> 00:30:51,680
Speaker 3: prosecuting Trump for the rico charge in Georgia, the state's

608
00:30:51,680 --> 00:30:55,720
Speaker 3: attorney for Georgia, for Fulton County, and and over the

609
00:30:55,760 --> 00:30:58,760
Speaker 3: we're gonna get into this, Let's just say that she's

610
00:30:58,760 --> 00:31:00,520
Speaker 3: made it pretty clear that she did some of the

611
00:31:00,520 --> 00:31:02,880
Speaker 3: stuff that she's accused of doing, and that's gonna be

612
00:31:03,040 --> 00:31:05,160
Speaker 3: that's gonna be a big problem because if you didn't

613
00:31:05,200 --> 00:31:08,040
Speaker 3: do it, you don't say the things she's saying. You say,

614
00:31:08,080 --> 00:31:10,360
Speaker 3: I didn't do it. And even if you did, if

615
00:31:10,360 --> 00:31:12,440
Speaker 3: you think you could get away with saying it, you would.

616
00:31:12,760 --> 00:31:15,880
Speaker 1: But she's not. So if we've got kids, Buck, I

617
00:31:15,920 --> 00:31:16,560
Speaker 1: would say this.

618
00:31:17,200 --> 00:31:19,760
Speaker 2: If you accuse your kid of doing something and their

619
00:31:19,760 --> 00:31:22,400
Speaker 2: first response is, what do you think that I'm perfect?

620
00:31:22,800 --> 00:31:26,160
Speaker 1: They probably did it right. I'm not perfect, Mob, I'm

621
00:31:26,200 --> 00:31:29,080
Speaker 1: not perfect. Dad. Well, you probably shouldn't have done what

622
00:31:29,120 --> 00:31:29,360
Speaker 1: you did.

623
00:31:29,440 --> 00:31:31,200
Speaker 3: I think I tried that at some point. It did

624
00:31:31,200 --> 00:31:33,160
Speaker 3: not did not go well. It did not last long

625
00:31:33,160 --> 00:31:34,040
Speaker 3: for me as a kid.

626
00:31:33,920 --> 00:31:36,280
Speaker 1: Like everybody makes mistakes.

627
00:31:35,840 --> 00:31:38,960
Speaker 3: Like, well, you made this one, so so I think

628
00:31:39,000 --> 00:31:41,400
Speaker 3: I think that's an interesting Also, more on more on

629
00:31:41,480 --> 00:31:48,040
Speaker 3: immigration as as a major point, a major point for

630
00:31:48,600 --> 00:31:51,320
Speaker 3: Iowa and even nationwide now a lot of voters. It

631
00:31:51,400 --> 00:31:53,840
Speaker 3: is a top in a lot of surveys. I'm seeing

632
00:31:53,920 --> 00:31:56,760
Speaker 3: it's coming up as the number one issue, which is

633
00:31:56,920 --> 00:32:00,840
Speaker 3: a big difference maker. Also, I saw this Clay interesting

634
00:32:00,960 --> 00:32:09,320
Speaker 3: that you have the expenditures based negative expenditures based on individuals.

635
00:32:09,320 --> 00:32:14,400
Speaker 3: Here saw this online forty seven million dollars of negative

636
00:32:14,400 --> 00:32:17,160
Speaker 3: independent expenditures. So this is what I guess. This is

637
00:32:17,200 --> 00:32:20,560
Speaker 3: pac money being spent almost fifty million dollars of attack

638
00:32:20,600 --> 00:32:24,040
Speaker 3: to Santis money, twenty three million of attack Hailey money,

639
00:32:24,720 --> 00:32:27,760
Speaker 3: twenty two million of attacking Trump, twenty one million of

640
00:32:27,800 --> 00:32:29,720
Speaker 3: attacking Biden. Now that Biden number is obviously going to

641
00:32:29,800 --> 00:32:32,080
Speaker 3: change a lot in the next few months. But they

642
00:32:32,200 --> 00:32:35,000
Speaker 3: really went all in on tearing down DeSantis. I think

643
00:32:35,000 --> 00:32:37,880
Speaker 3: that's a big component of what we've seen a lot

644
00:32:37,920 --> 00:32:41,760
Speaker 3: of money spent to undermine his campaign, and we'll see

645
00:32:41,800 --> 00:32:43,520
Speaker 3: how he ends up doing. Tonight in Iowa, which was

646
00:32:43,520 --> 00:32:46,200
Speaker 3: supposed to be they were kind of all in on Iowa.

647
00:32:46,240 --> 00:32:48,320
Speaker 3: I remember this. I mean that was the strategy. They

648
00:32:48,360 --> 00:32:52,000
Speaker 3: had Ted Cruz people, former Ted Cruz people working for

649
00:32:52,120 --> 00:32:54,600
Speaker 3: the campaign because Ted had won in Iowa, right, but

650
00:32:54,680 --> 00:32:57,120
Speaker 3: he got delayed with the victory, so it didn't have

651
00:32:57,160 --> 00:32:59,600
Speaker 3: the effect. They had all thought, all right, we've got

652
00:32:59,600 --> 00:33:01,560
Speaker 3: a lot of with people calling in. Of course, I

653
00:33:01,680 --> 00:33:05,400
Speaker 3: was big day today. Congratsioa. It's a big day Eileen

654
00:33:05,520 --> 00:33:08,400
Speaker 3: in Prairie City. I was gonna caucus. He's a former teacher.

655
00:33:08,400 --> 00:33:09,160
Speaker 3: What's up, Eileen?

656
00:33:10,040 --> 00:33:14,200
Speaker 6: Well Hide, greetings from a snowy snowy Iowa. And this

657
00:33:14,240 --> 00:33:17,520
Speaker 6: is someone who listened to Rush on WHL radio, I

658
00:33:17,560 --> 00:33:20,959
Speaker 6: believe back in nineteen eighty seven. I've been a teacher

659
00:33:21,000 --> 00:33:24,440
Speaker 6: for forty five years and always always been a staunch Republican,

660
00:33:24,480 --> 00:33:27,080
Speaker 6: though it's been hard at times. I will be going

661
00:33:27,120 --> 00:33:31,920
Speaker 6: to the caucas tonight and we'll be supporting Trump, although

662
00:33:32,000 --> 00:33:35,640
Speaker 6: I've got to say he can be rude, crude, obnoxious,

663
00:33:35,880 --> 00:33:38,120
Speaker 6: but he is the best president we've ever had.

664
00:33:38,960 --> 00:33:41,800
Speaker 2: So, Eileen, when did you make your decision on who

665
00:33:41,840 --> 00:33:43,160
Speaker 2: you were going to support at the caucus?

666
00:33:43,160 --> 00:33:44,080
Speaker 1: Did you ever waiver?

667
00:33:44,240 --> 00:33:46,360
Speaker 2: Obviously you get to see and hear from a lot

668
00:33:46,400 --> 00:33:49,760
Speaker 2: of different candidates over the past year. What was your

669
00:33:49,920 --> 00:33:53,200
Speaker 2: process towards supporting Trump and the caucus tonight?

670
00:33:53,360 --> 00:33:58,160
Speaker 6: Like I waivered for a while being for DeSantis, but

671
00:33:58,200 --> 00:33:59,920
Speaker 6: as kind went on, I knew we had to go

672
00:34:00,160 --> 00:34:02,400
Speaker 6: back to someone who could really do it, and that

673
00:34:02,560 --> 00:34:03,120
Speaker 6: was Trump.

674
00:34:04,320 --> 00:34:06,239
Speaker 1: What do you think about the vac and Trump right now?

675
00:34:06,280 --> 00:34:08,759
Speaker 1: If I could ask you that, Oh, I like that.

676
00:34:09,120 --> 00:34:12,000
Speaker 6: I really like the Vake. I don't think he's quite

677
00:34:12,040 --> 00:34:15,560
Speaker 6: ready for presidency, but he would be wonderful vice president.

678
00:34:16,480 --> 00:34:18,520
Speaker 1: Okay, all right, thank you, Eileen, and thank you for

679
00:34:18,560 --> 00:34:20,320
Speaker 1: the forty five years. What did you teach?

680
00:34:20,360 --> 00:34:22,960
Speaker 6: By the way, I thought this is its start out

681
00:34:22,960 --> 00:34:29,200
Speaker 6: on old typewriters in shorthand, and end up entrepreneurship and computers.

682
00:34:29,520 --> 00:34:29,759
Speaker 1: Wow.

683
00:34:29,880 --> 00:34:31,800
Speaker 2: Well, thank you for all the kids that you helped

684
00:34:31,800 --> 00:34:35,080
Speaker 2: to educate there in Iowa, Mike and Davenport. If we

685
00:34:35,120 --> 00:34:38,239
Speaker 2: can get him in quickly here as well, Davenport, Iowa, Mike,

686
00:34:38,320 --> 00:34:40,439
Speaker 2: are you going to go caucus tonight? What's your read

687
00:34:40,560 --> 00:34:42,160
Speaker 2: on the ground situation there?

688
00:34:43,480 --> 00:34:47,399
Speaker 7: I am it's cold here and I'm telling you full

689
00:34:47,480 --> 00:34:49,719
Speaker 7: number or caucus and numbers are probably going to be

690
00:34:49,719 --> 00:34:53,080
Speaker 7: low because of it. Kind Of my take on things

691
00:34:53,400 --> 00:34:56,359
Speaker 7: is Trump's my guy, always has been. If we can

692
00:34:56,360 --> 00:34:59,680
Speaker 7: get another four years of them, awesome. But my vote

693
00:34:59,840 --> 00:35:01,920
Speaker 7: is it's kind of unique in the sense to where,

694
00:35:02,440 --> 00:35:05,200
Speaker 7: all right, Trump's got a big lead, great, I'm kind

695
00:35:05,200 --> 00:35:06,319
Speaker 7: of voting for my number two.

696
00:35:06,360 --> 00:35:07,960
Speaker 5: And and that's a vague.

697
00:35:08,640 --> 00:35:11,640
Speaker 2: So you're going into support Veveke tonight even though you

698
00:35:11,760 --> 00:35:13,839
Speaker 2: like Trump as well? That's an interesting move.

699
00:35:14,160 --> 00:35:16,360
Speaker 3: What if you make of Trump saying that Raveke is

700
00:35:16,400 --> 00:35:19,120
Speaker 3: not maga ah man?

701
00:35:19,400 --> 00:35:21,359
Speaker 7: You know what's interested it? You know of a vig

702
00:35:22,320 --> 00:35:26,319
Speaker 7: the only UH candidate that's openly supported Trump and loved

703
00:35:26,320 --> 00:35:29,240
Speaker 7: what he's done, you know, and and you know, it's

704
00:35:29,280 --> 00:35:32,240
Speaker 7: it's kind of unique to it's like, hey, this guy's

705
00:35:32,280 --> 00:35:36,000
Speaker 7: for you, and uh, you know, I don't know.

706
00:35:36,040 --> 00:35:38,920
Speaker 2: It's all right, but so you're kind of one of

707
00:35:38,960 --> 00:35:41,520
Speaker 2: the guys. Thanks for the call, dude, Mike, thanks for

708
00:35:41,560 --> 00:35:42,920
Speaker 2: the call. We're coming up on the end of the

709
00:35:42,920 --> 00:35:44,920
Speaker 2: hour break here eight hundred and two two two eight

710
00:35:44,960 --> 00:35:47,239
Speaker 2: a two. You guys, especially in Iowa, can weigh in

711
00:35:47,320 --> 00:35:48,560
Speaker 2: during the course of the show today.

712
00:35:48,560 --> 00:35:50,359
Speaker 1: No guests, so we'll just be interacting with you.

713
00:35:50,840 --> 00:35:53,560
Speaker 2: But Mike is kind of the guy that Trump was addressing, right,

714
00:35:53,640 --> 00:35:56,680
Speaker 2: because Mike is going to support Viveke even though he's

715
00:35:56,680 --> 00:35:59,040
Speaker 2: a big Trump guy too. I think that's got some

716
00:35:59,200 --> 00:36:02,080
Speaker 2: in Trump world a little bit nervous just because those

717
00:36:02,160 --> 00:36:03,800
Speaker 2: votes would otherwise be going to Trump.

718
00:36:04,040 --> 00:36:07,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, he's saying, Mike, probably you should vote for me,

719
00:36:07,480 --> 00:36:10,520
Speaker 3: don't vote for Viveake number two in MAGA number one,

720
00:36:10,600 --> 00:36:14,200
Speaker 3: Trump all the way. So yeah, we're gonna come in

721
00:36:14,239 --> 00:36:16,320
Speaker 3: here in a second. I thought something was really interesting

722
00:36:16,360 --> 00:36:19,280
Speaker 3: over the weekend, and this is a rare thing play.

723
00:36:19,440 --> 00:36:21,919
Speaker 3: I want to talk a little bit about a New

724
00:36:22,000 --> 00:36:25,360
Speaker 3: York Times off ed where a guy who says he

725
00:36:25,440 --> 00:36:29,240
Speaker 3: wants Trump to lose makes the case for why Trump

726
00:36:29,320 --> 00:36:30,480
Speaker 3: actually should win.

727
00:36:30,719 --> 00:36:31,360
Speaker 1: It's amazing
