1
00:00:00,680 --> 00:00:03,480
Speaker 1: Why from our nations this budget thing is going to

2
00:00:03,560 --> 00:00:06,640
Speaker 1: do nothing spaceports. I still think it's interesting President Trump

3
00:00:06,680 --> 00:00:10,520
Speaker 1: not playing his cards yet. Headlines Policy and Politics colliding

4
00:00:10,640 --> 00:00:15,720
Speaker 1: Floomberg Sound On The Insiders the Influencers Insides. I would

5
00:00:15,800 --> 00:00:18,160
Speaker 1: rather see a congressional solution. It's part of my DNA.

6
00:00:18,440 --> 00:00:21,079
Speaker 1: The Senate map in looks a lot different than it

7
00:00:21,079 --> 00:00:24,440
Speaker 1: looked in. You really have a divide within Team Trump.

8
00:00:24,520 --> 00:00:26,840
Speaker 1: The President has to do exactly what people sent him

9
00:00:26,840 --> 00:00:28,600
Speaker 1: here to do, which is to get it done. This

10
00:00:29,200 --> 00:00:34,240
Speaker 1: is Bloomberg Sound On with Heaven Shirley on Bloomberg one

11
00:00:34,360 --> 00:00:38,400
Speaker 1: and one oh five points h D two Thanksgiving, Eve,

12
00:00:38,560 --> 00:00:42,280
Speaker 1: Gobble Gobble. I'm Kevin Surley, Chief Washington correspondent for Bloomberg Television,

13
00:00:42,360 --> 00:00:46,080
Speaker 1: Bloomberg Radio. Lots to get through, lots of preview, lots

14
00:00:46,120 --> 00:00:48,440
Speaker 1: of preview, because look, we get a couple of days

15
00:00:48,440 --> 00:00:49,760
Speaker 1: off and then when we come back, it's going to

16
00:00:49,840 --> 00:00:53,240
Speaker 1: be all about the impeachment inquiry, and folks, Senator Lindsey

17
00:00:53,240 --> 00:00:55,760
Speaker 1: Graham of the Judiciary Committee is going to be looking

18
00:00:55,840 --> 00:01:01,440
Speaker 1: into Hunter Biden. Plus will President Trump testify or send

19
00:01:01,560 --> 00:01:05,120
Speaker 1: a lawyer? The latest on that front as now, the

20
00:01:05,280 --> 00:01:09,280
Speaker 1: House Judiciary Committee, chared of course by Jerry Nadler wants him,

21
00:01:09,440 --> 00:01:12,160
Speaker 1: wants him to show up. Meanwhile, the White House is

22
00:01:12,160 --> 00:01:15,000
Speaker 1: in a pre Thanksgiving push to get U s m

23
00:01:15,080 --> 00:01:18,000
Speaker 1: c A over the finish line. But is that just

24
00:01:18,080 --> 00:01:20,560
Speaker 1: the pipe dream? We're gonna ask our two friends of

25
00:01:20,560 --> 00:01:23,200
Speaker 1: the program. We're having pizza today in the studio with

26
00:01:23,240 --> 00:01:26,080
Speaker 1: two friends of the program. Mark Ross, founder of Charicle globally,

27
00:01:26,120 --> 00:01:27,880
Speaker 1: hasn't been on like a year and a half, just kidding,

28
00:01:28,240 --> 00:01:32,920
Speaker 1: because he's been traveling for work at Louis Skiavoni. She,

29
00:01:33,040 --> 00:01:36,000
Speaker 1: of course, is a journalist and senior lecturer at Johns

30
00:01:36,040 --> 00:01:41,080
Speaker 1: Hopkins University Kerry Business School. Okay, before we talk trade policy,

31
00:01:41,520 --> 00:01:46,280
Speaker 1: let's first talk what's everybody doing for Thanksgiving? I'm sticking around.

32
00:01:46,520 --> 00:01:49,160
Speaker 1: I'm going to my daughter's place in the morning and

33
00:01:49,240 --> 00:01:51,800
Speaker 1: a friends place in the afternoon. I am not cooking

34
00:01:51,920 --> 00:01:55,360
Speaker 1: one single thing. You don't you know? Good for you, Louise. Yeah,

35
00:01:55,520 --> 00:01:56,680
Speaker 1: what are you doing in the morning though? Do you

36
00:01:56,680 --> 00:01:59,320
Speaker 1: get like turkey and for breakfast? I don't know. My

37
00:01:59,320 --> 00:02:02,200
Speaker 1: my daughter had something planned. I'm sure it's not turkey.

38
00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:04,360
Speaker 1: Because right now we have pizza in the studio because

39
00:02:04,360 --> 00:02:06,680
Speaker 1: anywhere Luise. Luise will refuse to come on the show

40
00:02:06,720 --> 00:02:09,760
Speaker 1: unlessre's pizza and her list, like you know how like

41
00:02:10,040 --> 00:02:12,800
Speaker 1: musicians have a list of things that they need. What's

42
00:02:12,800 --> 00:02:15,799
Speaker 1: that called the jelly the coconut jelly beans? Though I

43
00:02:15,880 --> 00:02:21,160
Speaker 1: have been consistently absent, I'm sorry, I'll tell I'm not gonna.

44
00:02:21,720 --> 00:02:26,359
Speaker 1: I'm so good, Christine Mark, what do you do every Thanksgiving?

45
00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:30,960
Speaker 1: To watch the Detroit Lines loose? Which is a which

46
00:02:30,960 --> 00:02:34,960
Speaker 1: is tradition in Michigan. I'm gonna eat pie for sure,

47
00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:39,760
Speaker 1: probably several. I don't discriminate between apple and pumpkin. I'm

48
00:02:39,760 --> 00:02:41,880
Speaker 1: happy with both of them. And then I'm gonna catch

49
00:02:41,919 --> 00:02:45,400
Speaker 1: up on The Crown. So I've watched the entire series

50
00:02:45,440 --> 00:02:47,320
Speaker 1: of The Crown. Oh my mom is obsessed with that.

51
00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:49,919
Speaker 1: My parents are coming up. I'm actually I'm not hosting.

52
00:02:49,919 --> 00:02:52,040
Speaker 1: We're going to a restaurant, but I'm saying that I'm

53
00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:55,040
Speaker 1: hosting all my family's coming down for Washington, so I

54
00:02:55,040 --> 00:02:58,600
Speaker 1: don't have to go anywhere. But speaking of this bipartisan ship,

55
00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:01,800
Speaker 1: last week, I briefly mentioned this, but the Bipartisan Policy

56
00:03:01,880 --> 00:03:04,880
Speaker 1: Center invited me to their first of what is there

57
00:03:04,880 --> 00:03:07,600
Speaker 1: hoping to be an annual thing with lawmakers and on

58
00:03:07,639 --> 00:03:10,040
Speaker 1: both sides of the aisles. It was like twenty people

59
00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:13,920
Speaker 1: and they put together a a like, how to handle

60
00:03:14,080 --> 00:03:18,720
Speaker 1: political discourse around the Thanks gonna take a really good idea? Well,

61
00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:23,359
Speaker 1: what was their idea? It's essentially dodged. I mean I told,

62
00:03:23,360 --> 00:03:25,480
Speaker 1: I told Arry Goldberg, who's there, cons guy over there?

63
00:03:25,760 --> 00:03:30,959
Speaker 1: It's so it says here here, here's discuss the main

64
00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:34,760
Speaker 1: course something media. If you have to discuss politics, discuss

65
00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:38,640
Speaker 1: substantial issues according to the Bipartisan Policy Center that mattered

66
00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:43,680
Speaker 1: to you and your family, the economy, healthcare, energy, civil rights.

67
00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:46,480
Speaker 1: I'm looking at this setting priorities is a challenge for

68
00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:49,160
Speaker 1: our government. Can your table agree on three of the

69
00:03:49,160 --> 00:03:52,080
Speaker 1: following issues you would most like Congress and the President's

70
00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:56,480
Speaker 1: work together on. So what they propose is asking for areas,

71
00:03:56,880 --> 00:03:59,480
Speaker 1: asking a question that would unite people and Senate. The

72
00:03:59,560 --> 00:04:02,240
Speaker 1: vibe I'm like where I grew up. Everyone, it's hard

73
00:04:02,240 --> 00:04:07,040
Speaker 1: to get a word in edgewise. You've got Democrats, Republicans, vegetarians, libertarians, vegans,

74
00:04:07,120 --> 00:04:11,280
Speaker 1: everything you know talking about about politics. Yeah, that sounds

75
00:04:11,320 --> 00:04:13,600
Speaker 1: actually kind of boring, And I think that's why we

76
00:04:13,720 --> 00:04:16,960
Speaker 1: vote representatives to handle these issues. I mean, you know,

77
00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:18,960
Speaker 1: I can't we have one day where we're not talking

78
00:04:18,960 --> 00:04:24,040
Speaker 1: about politics. Yeah, I know, I I completely, I completely

79
00:04:24,080 --> 00:04:26,480
Speaker 1: agree with that. So I'm going to this. The thing

80
00:04:26,520 --> 00:04:28,840
Speaker 1: I'm going to in the afternoon is like they're going

81
00:04:28,839 --> 00:04:31,800
Speaker 1: to be eighteen people, only one of whom I will

82
00:04:31,839 --> 00:04:35,800
Speaker 1: be related to, but a lot of journalists who I

83
00:04:35,839 --> 00:04:39,000
Speaker 1: have worked with over the years, and um, they're always

84
00:04:39,080 --> 00:04:43,160
Speaker 1: very interesting and jaded. I think the more the more,

85
00:04:43,400 --> 00:04:45,520
Speaker 1: I've never been more fired out of my life. I'm

86
00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:50,359
Speaker 1: not having dinner with you about my ancient generation. For

87
00:04:50,480 --> 00:04:53,560
Speaker 1: the record, I've never been more fired up and energized

88
00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:57,719
Speaker 1: in my life. Okay, so anyway, you see we've already

89
00:04:57,720 --> 00:05:03,560
Speaker 1: started the Thanksgiving conversa ahead of time. But um, but

90
00:05:03,720 --> 00:05:08,080
Speaker 1: I really think that that discussing politics of any type

91
00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:10,839
Speaker 1: is it's just deadly. First of all, I think I

92
00:05:10,839 --> 00:05:17,719
Speaker 1: think people find it. That's a little everyone's writing about this.

93
00:05:17,800 --> 00:05:20,360
Speaker 1: People Magazine has a story out today how to survive

94
00:05:20,400 --> 00:05:24,480
Speaker 1: talking about politics that Thanksgiving has the story out how

95
00:05:24,520 --> 00:05:28,720
Speaker 1: to fight with your family at Thanksgiving drop the butter knife? Uh?

96
00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:33,000
Speaker 1: And then what else an NPR surviving family politics at Thanksgiving?

97
00:05:33,040 --> 00:05:35,360
Speaker 1: I mean, everyone's writing about this. But here's the thing.

98
00:05:35,440 --> 00:05:38,159
Speaker 1: I mean, listen, I say, talk about it. If you

99
00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:40,599
Speaker 1: can't talk with your family about politics, what what what

100
00:05:40,720 --> 00:05:43,400
Speaker 1: can you talk about? Well, I think it's always helpful

101
00:05:43,480 --> 00:05:46,960
Speaker 1: with people say things to just say that's very interesting,

102
00:05:47,680 --> 00:05:50,560
Speaker 1: and um, you know, what is the point of engaging

103
00:05:50,600 --> 00:05:52,680
Speaker 1: people over the dinner table where people are going to

104
00:05:52,720 --> 00:05:55,359
Speaker 1: be upset? Isn't the point of these holidays where you

105
00:05:55,400 --> 00:05:58,120
Speaker 1: get together with people to sort of enjoy yourself as

106
00:05:58,160 --> 00:06:01,400
Speaker 1: opposed to get getting completely in. That's not That's not

107
00:06:01,440 --> 00:06:05,080
Speaker 1: my experience with my family and seeing somebody who industrial

108
00:06:05,120 --> 00:06:07,680
Speaker 1: Midwest and moved to the East Coast. I like to

109
00:06:07,680 --> 00:06:10,200
Speaker 1: go back and see my union uncles. They're like, what

110
00:06:10,240 --> 00:06:12,359
Speaker 1: are you doing? What's happening? You're part of the problem,

111
00:06:12,440 --> 00:06:16,280
Speaker 1: So you're part of the solution market. I think Congressman

112
00:06:16,320 --> 00:06:19,080
Speaker 1: Sean Duffy was on the was on Fox News earlier

113
00:06:19,120 --> 00:06:23,520
Speaker 1: today and he says, don't ban political conversations at Thanksgiving dinner. Listen,

114
00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:26,200
Speaker 1: you know what I say, I say, talk about whatever

115
00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:29,000
Speaker 1: you want to talk about, you know, and and you know,

116
00:06:29,080 --> 00:06:30,920
Speaker 1: let the chips fall over there. But don't you find

117
00:06:30,920 --> 00:06:34,640
Speaker 1: Italians talk a lot about food anyway? I mean so Italian.

118
00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:37,599
Speaker 1: We'll talk about everything. We'll talk about We'll talk about

119
00:06:37,680 --> 00:06:41,560
Speaker 1: recipes around around a table where food is the is

120
00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:44,200
Speaker 1: the main subject. And I think people love to talk

121
00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:47,320
Speaker 1: about people as opposed to issues. Listen, I'm not a historian,

122
00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:50,839
Speaker 1: but if I do know the Pilgrims and the Native Americans,

123
00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:54,200
Speaker 1: and I mean that was an inherently political discord. That

124
00:06:54,240 --> 00:06:56,800
Speaker 1: was a geopolitical meeting of the minds as it is.

125
00:06:56,920 --> 00:06:59,120
Speaker 1: I think it was a takeover, but it was. It

126
00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:02,560
Speaker 1: was the the idea that there wasn't a political undertone

127
00:07:02,640 --> 00:07:05,360
Speaker 1: of what is my favorite holiday is Thanksgiving? You get

128
00:07:05,360 --> 00:07:07,080
Speaker 1: all the food you want, you can eat more, and

129
00:07:07,120 --> 00:07:09,560
Speaker 1: then you get Hog's the next day with turkey and them.

130
00:07:09,760 --> 00:07:13,000
Speaker 1: But from respectfully, you date back to the to the

131
00:07:13,040 --> 00:07:16,440
Speaker 1: O G Thanksgiving when they got off the mayflower and stuff.

132
00:07:17,080 --> 00:07:18,320
Speaker 1: I don't know if you guys have noticed this, but

133
00:07:18,440 --> 00:07:22,200
Speaker 1: Virginia is now claiming that they were not. I've heard

134
00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:25,160
Speaker 1: Virginia now is saying we are the home of well

135
00:07:25,240 --> 00:07:31,240
Speaker 1: the first thing some Massachusetts even states for coming up,

136
00:07:31,240 --> 00:07:35,600
Speaker 1: we're gonna pivot to uh to politics. UH. Whether it's

137
00:07:35,600 --> 00:07:39,400
Speaker 1: going to be a huge conversation point of conversation today.

138
00:07:39,640 --> 00:07:42,320
Speaker 1: I think I think, I think impeachment is going to

139
00:07:42,360 --> 00:07:44,720
Speaker 1: be what everybody's talking about at the Thanksgiving table and

140
00:07:44,840 --> 00:07:46,920
Speaker 1: why the Philadelphia Eagles stink and if they should have

141
00:07:46,960 --> 00:07:49,320
Speaker 1: kept Nick Foles or Carson Wentz. But I just want

142
00:07:49,360 --> 00:07:51,640
Speaker 1: to say, if people talking about impeachment, it will be

143
00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:54,960
Speaker 1: like a thousand percent everybody will have the wrong take

144
00:07:55,040 --> 00:08:01,800
Speaker 1: on it. So you mentioned James first Thanksgiving. You mentioned

145
00:08:01,840 --> 00:08:04,840
Speaker 1: this just so everybody knows. I mean the Commonwealth. It's

146
00:08:04,880 --> 00:08:07,040
Speaker 1: the bottle of the Commonwealth, and they really are. But

147
00:08:07,080 --> 00:08:09,040
Speaker 1: all I'm gonna say, I'm not stepping in this. I'm

148
00:08:09,160 --> 00:08:12,080
Speaker 1: so grateful for our Virginia listeners and they've just welcomed me,

149
00:08:12,520 --> 00:08:16,640
Speaker 1: this Philadelphia and this Delko president and Philadelphia Eagle fan

150
00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:21,280
Speaker 1: into their their rush hour coute. But I will say,

151
00:08:21,720 --> 00:08:24,440
Speaker 1: at least Philly, Philly is where the capital should be

152
00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:27,600
Speaker 1: coming up. We talk U S M c A with

153
00:08:27,640 --> 00:08:30,040
Speaker 1: Mark Cross and Luiski Avoni. I was gonna do that

Speaker 1: Kevin Sirilli, chief Washington correspondent for Bloomberg Television and Bloomberg Radio.

171

173

176
00:09:49,559 --> 00:09:52,160
Speaker 1: of mine as well. But sorry, Mark and I are friends.

177
00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:54,760
Speaker 1: You know, we met on your show. You know, look

178
00:09:54,800 --> 00:10:00,040
Speaker 1: at me now, all right, So we let's just of

179
00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:02,320
Speaker 1: this pole. The Quinnipiac poll good news for Joe Biden.

180
00:10:02,720 --> 00:10:04,840
Speaker 1: Joe Biden is proving to be tefland. I said it

181
00:10:04,840 --> 00:10:06,959
Speaker 1: a couple of months ago. I mean, no matter what

182
00:10:07,120 --> 00:10:09,800
Speaker 1: has thrown his way, the former Vice president continues to

183
00:10:10,400 --> 00:10:12,640
Speaker 1: remain at the top of the polls Bododa Judge surging

184
00:10:12,640 --> 00:10:16,040
Speaker 1: the second place. So this Quinnipiac pole, Biden gets the

185
00:10:16,080 --> 00:10:21,400
Speaker 1: support Democratic voters and independent voters who leaned Democratic. Elizabeth

186
00:10:21,400 --> 00:10:24,520
Speaker 1: Warren plunged and I'm trying to find the list here

187
00:10:24,600 --> 00:10:27,800
Speaker 1: here it is. Warren sank to third place and she

188
00:10:27,920 --> 00:10:31,880
Speaker 1: dropped to four percent. Wow. Bernie Sanders fell to fourth

189
00:10:31,920 --> 00:10:34,599
Speaker 1: place from third, with his support following two points to

190
00:10:35,559 --> 00:10:39,600
Speaker 1: I'm reading from the Hill newspaper and um Buddha Judges

191
00:10:39,640 --> 00:10:43,319
Speaker 1: in seconds. So it goes Biden, Buddha, Jedge, Bernie, I'm

192
00:10:43,360 --> 00:10:46,480
Speaker 1: sorry Warren, and then Bernie, I mean Joe Biden's heading

193
00:10:46,480 --> 00:10:48,480
Speaker 1: into the Thanksgiving holiday. Who wants to go first. Joe

194
00:10:48,520 --> 00:10:51,600
Speaker 1: Biden's heading in. I have an opinion about this. I

195
00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:54,200
Speaker 1: think I think all along it looked like Biden was

196
00:10:54,240 --> 00:10:57,080
Speaker 1: going to percolate to the top of this field. But

197
00:10:57,200 --> 00:11:00,040
Speaker 1: not because he's such an awesome candidate. It's just that

198
00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:04,000
Speaker 1: they're number one too many candidates in the Democratic fields,

199
00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:07,880
Speaker 1: and number two because there are so many uh check

200
00:11:07,920 --> 00:11:10,760
Speaker 1: marks against some of these other candidates, like, for instance,

201
00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:14,679
Speaker 1: Elizabeth Warren. The more she talks about these programs that

202
00:11:14,720 --> 00:11:16,920
Speaker 1: she wants to see for the country, and the more

203
00:11:16,960 --> 00:11:20,880
Speaker 1: people get an idea about how expensive they are. And

204
00:11:21,240 --> 00:11:24,560
Speaker 1: I have to say that Biden, who um, and I'm

205
00:11:24,600 --> 00:11:28,440
Speaker 1: not saying this for partisan reasons, but he's really got

206
00:11:28,440 --> 00:11:31,840
Speaker 1: a challenge with articulating where he's going. But he has

207
00:11:32,200 --> 00:11:37,040
Speaker 1: managed to articulate how expensive the programs are. That Elizabeth

208
00:11:37,080 --> 00:11:39,920
Speaker 1: Warren is talking about the same thing with Bernie Sanders

209
00:11:40,320 --> 00:11:42,600
Speaker 1: uh and so I think that that has pulled her down.

210
00:11:42,640 --> 00:11:44,440
Speaker 1: And I have to say that I don't think it

211
00:11:44,520 --> 00:11:47,640
Speaker 1: helps to be a woman candidate. I just don't, and

212
00:11:47,679 --> 00:11:49,840
Speaker 1: I don't think that's fair. But I think that is

213
00:11:49,920 --> 00:11:52,480
Speaker 1: also an element. And Ludha Judge, he's sort of he

214
00:11:52,760 --> 00:11:56,679
Speaker 1: he doesn't really say um things that are controversial in

215
00:11:56,720 --> 00:12:01,160
Speaker 1: my opinion. Uh, this week and left the last debate,

216
00:12:01,640 --> 00:12:04,920
Speaker 1: what did he say? He equated the lgbt Q civil

217
00:12:05,000 --> 00:12:08,240
Speaker 1: rights movement with African American civil rights. Yeah, that's that's

218
00:12:08,280 --> 00:12:10,840
Speaker 1: never that's never a smart thing. He's got zero percent

219
00:12:10,920 --> 00:12:13,280
Speaker 1: with African American voters. There's a pull out in South

220
00:12:13,320 --> 00:12:18,360
Speaker 1: Carolina that says Biden's up twenty points. Wow, I mean

221
00:12:18,400 --> 00:12:22,080
Speaker 1: he's in good shape. I listen. I've been critical when

222
00:12:22,080 --> 00:12:24,520
Speaker 1: I when it when it warrants it with Biden world,

223
00:12:24,520 --> 00:12:26,760
Speaker 1: But I don't. I don't think he's heading into the

224
00:12:26,760 --> 00:12:29,240
Speaker 1: Thanksgiving holiday in bad shape. No, he's not heading in

225
00:12:29,320 --> 00:12:30,920
Speaker 1: bad ship. He's not in great shape. I think the

226
00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:34,560
Speaker 1: challenge I'll say why, because I think there's three reasons. Basically,

227
00:12:34,600 --> 00:12:36,640
Speaker 1: if four candidates are gonna plenty of money, they're gonna

228
00:12:36,640 --> 00:12:38,840
Speaker 1: go to the distance. This I thought Joe Biden would

229
00:12:38,840 --> 00:12:41,520
Speaker 1: be able to clear the field and have a faster path.

230
00:12:41,800 --> 00:12:44,440
Speaker 1: But the way the Democratic Party also distributes delegates, they

231
00:12:44,480 --> 00:12:46,400
Speaker 1: do it by proportional voting, So even if you win

232
00:12:46,480 --> 00:12:48,840
Speaker 1: Iowa by one or two points, you get the headlines,

233
00:12:48,880 --> 00:12:52,000
Speaker 1: of course, but the delegates that is who votes in

234
00:12:52,040 --> 00:12:54,599
Speaker 1: the convention is gonna be spread out between four or

235
00:12:54,600 --> 00:12:56,719
Speaker 1: five candidates. That means this this battle is gonna go

236
00:12:56,760 --> 00:12:59,120
Speaker 1: on for a while. I think Biden would like to

237
00:12:59,160 --> 00:13:02,680
Speaker 1: see himself much closer to than to be in the

238
00:13:02,720 --> 00:13:05,280
Speaker 1: high twenties. And I think that's the problem, respectfully, And

239
00:13:05,280 --> 00:13:07,440
Speaker 1: and I say this to both in respect I disagree

240
00:13:07,440 --> 00:13:11,600
Speaker 1: with that because I don't see the evidence. Uh, the

241
00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:14,079
Speaker 1: Iowa caucus is, you know, and and in a couple

242
00:13:14,120 --> 00:13:16,200
Speaker 1: of months, and if you've got then you've got New Hampshire,

243
00:13:16,240 --> 00:13:18,559
Speaker 1: and then you've got South Carolina that's Super Tuesday, and

244
00:13:18,600 --> 00:13:21,640
Speaker 1: the bat there's always Nevada, and there's always going to

245
00:13:21,720 --> 00:13:24,360
Speaker 1: be a delicate fight in a threshold. It's not like

246
00:13:24,400 --> 00:13:26,880
Speaker 1: after the Iowa Caucus it's going to be close. You know,

247
00:13:26,880 --> 00:13:29,040
Speaker 1: it's not like he's running solo. But to have a

248
00:13:29,960 --> 00:13:32,600
Speaker 1: lead in South Carolina more people are getting into this

249
00:13:32,720 --> 00:13:34,400
Speaker 1: race that are getting out of it. So I think

250
00:13:34,440 --> 00:13:37,120
Speaker 1: that's also a sign of how, alright, how weak the

251
00:13:37,160 --> 00:13:41,240
Speaker 1: Democrat field is also, you know, it's certainly not bad,

252
00:13:41,280 --> 00:13:42,840
Speaker 1: but it's not as strong as he should be. And

253
00:13:42,840 --> 00:13:44,599
Speaker 1: I think the fact that this may go on for

254
00:13:44,640 --> 00:13:47,240
Speaker 1: a while and the more Joe Biden talks frankly, the

255
00:13:47,240 --> 00:13:49,600
Speaker 1: more he gets himself in trouble. The more Elizabe Warrant

256
00:13:49,600 --> 00:13:52,320
Speaker 1: talks more she gets herself in trouble. Um, I don't know.

257
00:13:52,320 --> 00:13:53,840
Speaker 1: I think we're gonna have a longer fight. I think

258
00:13:53,920 --> 00:13:57,800
Speaker 1: that's really true. I completely agree with my good friend Mark.

259
00:13:58,440 --> 00:14:02,440
Speaker 1: But but but you know the point that the former

260
00:14:02,480 --> 00:14:05,840
Speaker 1: governor of Massachusetts is now getting into the race, the

261
00:14:05,880 --> 00:14:08,360
Speaker 1: former mayor of New York is getting into the race,

262
00:14:08,400 --> 00:14:10,800
Speaker 1: and he's got a ton of money. And you know

263
00:14:10,840 --> 00:14:13,320
Speaker 1: what Tip O'Neil used to say, money is the mother's

264
00:14:13,400 --> 00:14:15,959
Speaker 1: milk of politics, and if you've got a ton of money,

265
00:14:16,160 --> 00:14:18,760
Speaker 1: you're in good condition. So it'll be interesting to see

266
00:14:18,760 --> 00:14:21,160
Speaker 1: how this all shakes down. But in terms of how

267
00:14:21,800 --> 00:14:25,800
Speaker 1: how Democrats view they're democratic standard holder, I still think

268
00:14:25,840 --> 00:14:30,800
Speaker 1: that is still a hand. Patrick is like one former

269
00:14:30,800 --> 00:14:33,600
Speaker 1: New York City mayor Michael Bloomberg is at three percent,

270
00:14:33,680 --> 00:14:37,840
Speaker 1: tied with Senators Kamala Harris and Amy klobuchar Um. But

271
00:14:37,840 --> 00:14:40,080
Speaker 1: with the issue of having so much money is in

272
00:14:40,120 --> 00:14:43,560
Speaker 1: this climate and this electorate, is that an asset or

273
00:14:43,560 --> 00:14:46,920
Speaker 1: a liability? I think it's totally an asset. It never

274
00:14:47,040 --> 00:14:49,160
Speaker 1: hurts to have a ton of money. I think the

275
00:14:49,200 --> 00:14:54,520
Speaker 1: Devlopatrick is running for vice president. Frankly, I mean having money,

276
00:14:54,520 --> 00:14:57,520
Speaker 1: no doubt is great. I mean, obviously, Michael Bloomer's report

277
00:14:57,520 --> 00:15:00,480
Speaker 1: out Today's I've committed more money to TV ads then

278
00:15:00,480 --> 00:15:02,960
Speaker 1: the entire current field has spent so far. You know,

279
00:15:03,000 --> 00:15:05,160
Speaker 1: I worked for Steve Forbes back in the day. He

280
00:15:05,200 --> 00:15:07,400
Speaker 1: had a lot of money. The key though, when you

281
00:15:07,400 --> 00:15:09,720
Speaker 1: have people actually donating money to you, right it makes

282
00:15:09,720 --> 00:15:11,840
Speaker 1: a huge difference. That means they're committed to you just

283
00:15:11,920 --> 00:15:15,200
Speaker 1: spending money, you know, It's the same question in this climate,

284
00:15:15,480 --> 00:15:20,080
Speaker 1: in this populous electorate climate, is an asset or a liability?

285
00:15:20,200 --> 00:15:23,400
Speaker 1: I think when you're running for office, you're you're just

286
00:15:23,480 --> 00:15:25,360
Speaker 1: you have to play the cards you're dealt. So, I mean,

287
00:15:25,520 --> 00:15:27,360
Speaker 1: the fact is that Michael Bloomberg wants to be president,

288
00:15:27,360 --> 00:15:29,200
Speaker 1: He's gonna have to spend a lot of money. That's

289
00:15:29,200 --> 00:15:31,240
Speaker 1: his path of victory. It's hard to say right now

290
00:15:31,320 --> 00:15:32,640
Speaker 1: if that's the best way, you know what I'm trying

291
00:15:32,640 --> 00:15:35,560
Speaker 1: to I'm trying to say, there's always challenges to how

292
00:15:35,600 --> 00:15:37,080
Speaker 1: you're gonna get in the White House, and that's his

293
00:15:37,160 --> 00:15:41,360
Speaker 1: best path forward. Um, certainly you know Buddha Jedge Sanders.

294
00:15:41,360 --> 00:15:43,240
Speaker 1: I mean, these guys can raise money any given time

295
00:15:43,240 --> 00:15:46,360
Speaker 1: they want, you know, even Cloba Shark. And it seems

296
00:15:46,360 --> 00:15:48,160
Speaker 1: like anytime she needs money she calls up her ex

297
00:15:48,160 --> 00:15:50,680
Speaker 1: boyfriends and they send some cash. I mean that's an

298
00:15:50,680 --> 00:15:53,120
Speaker 1: allusion to a quote that she gave don't drive off

299
00:15:53,160 --> 00:15:55,560
Speaker 1: the road if you're driving. I don't run that type

300
00:15:55,560 --> 00:15:57,600
Speaker 1: of show here, folks. Okay, it seems up money. It

301
00:15:57,720 --> 00:15:59,680
Speaker 1: was her words, her words. I agree. I thought it

302
00:15:59,680 --> 00:16:03,680
Speaker 1: was pretty funny. Umi was hilarious with that. By the way, Um,

303
00:16:03,720 --> 00:16:06,160
Speaker 1: I'm not sure any of my girlfriends would get any

304
00:16:06,160 --> 00:16:09,920
Speaker 1: girlfriends would get anyway. I think money is not gonna

305
00:16:09,920 --> 00:16:11,600
Speaker 1: be the problem. It's gonna be how are you gonna

306
00:16:11,600 --> 00:16:14,120
Speaker 1: get the delegates to win? And like the fact that

307
00:16:14,160 --> 00:16:16,320
Speaker 1: the fields expanding. I mean there's even rumors that Hillary

308
00:16:16,320 --> 00:16:18,760
Speaker 1: Clinton thing about this. Let's not I mean, I agree,

309
00:16:18,760 --> 00:16:21,240
Speaker 1: but let's that has not been put out there and

310
00:16:22,520 --> 00:16:25,720
Speaker 1: throughout throughout my travels the last few you know, I've

311
00:16:25,720 --> 00:16:28,080
Speaker 1: literally been on the road for two months. Um, I

312
00:16:28,720 --> 00:16:31,840
Speaker 1: was in the battleground state of Ohio. In my analysis,

313
00:16:32,040 --> 00:16:36,400
Speaker 1: you know, from talking talking to several people different. You know, folks, um,

314
00:16:36,560 --> 00:16:39,120
Speaker 1: nobody's really excited, like they kind of think Trump's a clown,

315
00:16:39,600 --> 00:16:41,520
Speaker 1: and nobody's really excited with the Democratic field. I mean,

316
00:16:41,560 --> 00:16:45,080
Speaker 1: I think it's it's kind of like a meat loaf primary.

317
00:16:45,080 --> 00:16:48,760
Speaker 1: Where were you traveling for work, just for your for

318
00:16:48,800 --> 00:16:51,880
Speaker 1: your different projects. It's been good And I don't know

319
00:16:51,920 --> 00:16:54,240
Speaker 1: why you and I did not go to Mark's brig

320
00:16:54,320 --> 00:16:59,560
Speaker 1: Dune Forum in Scotland. We have to do that next year, Okay, anything,

321
00:16:59,640 --> 00:17:01,920
Speaker 1: but but can I I just want to say that

322
00:17:01,960 --> 00:17:05,280
Speaker 1: I think one of the motivating factors among the electorate

323
00:17:05,400 --> 00:17:10,920
Speaker 1: this year is is anger. People love to be angry.

324
00:17:10,960 --> 00:17:13,720
Speaker 1: I mean, if you go on Twitter and you see

325
00:17:13,760 --> 00:17:20,520
Speaker 1: how angry people are. I knew nickname I've heard for

326
00:17:21,320 --> 00:17:23,639
Speaker 1: our buddy. You know. The mayor from South Bend is

327
00:17:23,720 --> 00:17:26,840
Speaker 1: Mayo Pete because he's so bland and so boring. He

328
00:17:26,960 --> 00:17:29,679
Speaker 1: is the antithesis. I mean he is like McKenzie, what

329
00:17:29,800 --> 00:17:31,959
Speaker 1: is he gonna win? Who knows if he's gonna win.

330
00:17:32,000 --> 00:17:33,720
Speaker 1: But I mean he's there right now. He's in a

331
00:17:33,720 --> 00:17:39,639
Speaker 1: better position than Kobachar Andrew. I don't think we know, ye,

332
00:17:40,040 --> 00:17:41,840
Speaker 1: I don't think we know. Is this go on for

333
00:17:41,880 --> 00:17:44,560
Speaker 1: a while. I have to say that I'm disappointed Andrew

334
00:17:44,600 --> 00:17:47,400
Speaker 1: Yagg doesn't have more game because I think he's sort

335
00:17:47,440 --> 00:17:50,480
Speaker 1: of an interesting guy. But he's not. I don't I

336
00:17:50,520 --> 00:17:52,320
Speaker 1: think there's there's been all these stats out about how

337
00:17:52,320 --> 00:17:54,040
Speaker 1: little time he gets during the debates, and I totally

338
00:17:54,119 --> 00:17:58,480
Speaker 1: agree with this. He's been consistently made every single solitary debate.

339
00:17:58,760 --> 00:18:01,240
Speaker 1: He should be taken serious. Lee his idea should be

340
00:18:01,280 --> 00:18:03,840
Speaker 1: taken seriously. There are are the Democratic Party on the

341
00:18:03,840 --> 00:18:06,600
Speaker 1: issue of data collection, for example, in the international community.

342
00:18:06,920 --> 00:18:09,679
Speaker 1: They that's that has its its roots in the Obama administration.

343
00:18:09,720 --> 00:18:13,919
Speaker 1: I mean his policy proposals are have been argued by

344
00:18:13,960 --> 00:18:18,520
Speaker 1: other politicians before. I I don't understand why Andrew doesn't

345
00:18:18,520 --> 00:18:22,200
Speaker 1: get more time. I think he deserves it. And um, yeah,

346
00:18:22,200 --> 00:18:26,880
Speaker 1: I think he's an intriguing, appealing, charismatic guy who's obviously

347
00:18:28,000 --> 00:18:30,600
Speaker 1: he's a policy He's talking honestly. I mean, he's like

348
00:18:30,600 --> 00:18:33,520
Speaker 1: saying these are like legit issues. He's a policier. And

349
00:18:34,080 --> 00:18:36,200
Speaker 1: I think that comes through when when when you talk

350
00:18:36,240 --> 00:18:38,160
Speaker 1: with him, and and I'll say this, it's it's very

351
00:18:38,200 --> 00:18:40,879
Speaker 1: similar when you interview Senator Elizabeth Woren, when you interview

352
00:18:40,920 --> 00:18:44,280
Speaker 1: Andrew Yang, Bernie Sanders, their policy nerds, you know, and

353
00:18:44,280 --> 00:18:46,560
Speaker 1: and they you might disagree with their policies, but they

354
00:18:46,600 --> 00:18:50,040
Speaker 1: want to talk policy, and you know it's interesting. All right,

355
00:18:50,040 --> 00:18:53,320
Speaker 1: Well enough on segment coming up, we will talk policy.

356
00:18:53,440 --> 00:18:55,920
Speaker 1: We're gonna talk U S m c A on Thanksgiving

Speaker 1: by guests Sir Mark Ross, founder of Charcoal Globe, What

369
00:19:37,359 --> 00:19:40,960
Speaker 1: will We? Skivoney, journalist senior lector at Johns Hopkins University

370
00:19:41,000 --> 00:19:44,520
Speaker 1: Carey Business School. All right, USMC buy, isn't it getting

371
00:19:44,640 --> 00:19:47,560
Speaker 1: Une Mark? Well, it depends who you listen to him,

372
00:19:47,640 --> 00:19:51,280
Speaker 1: but all indication, listening to all indications look like something

373
00:19:51,320 --> 00:19:54,639
Speaker 1: could happen next week. Mexico and Canada are in town today,

374
00:19:54,800 --> 00:19:57,879
Speaker 1: meaning what top people at u s T are. Um, So,

375
00:19:58,080 --> 00:20:01,680
Speaker 1: there's an appetite to get it done. I just think

376
00:20:03,400 --> 00:20:06,960
Speaker 1: it's just kind of it's just kind of their respect.

377
00:20:07,119 --> 00:20:09,359
Speaker 1: It doesn't matter what Canada Mexico say. It matters what

378
00:20:09,400 --> 00:20:11,760
Speaker 1: Speaker Pelosi says. I agree, But there's because I think

379
00:20:11,800 --> 00:20:13,680
Speaker 1: there's changes that need to be done. You know, the

380
00:20:13,760 --> 00:20:16,080
Speaker 1: labor unions are still looking for some changes that they

381
00:20:16,119 --> 00:20:18,720
Speaker 1: want modifications to the trade agreement. UM so yeah, No,

382
00:20:18,760 --> 00:20:21,360
Speaker 1: I think it's positive that they're here. I mean, anytime

383
00:20:21,359 --> 00:20:23,840
Speaker 1: you have trade negotiations, they should be meeting with USCR,

384
00:20:23,880 --> 00:20:26,119
Speaker 1: they should be meeting with Nancy Pelosi. Pelosi is the

385
00:20:26,200 --> 00:20:29,520
Speaker 1: one who has the She is literally the only person

386
00:20:29,720 --> 00:20:32,640
Speaker 1: right now who has the ability to get this negotiations

387
00:20:32,680 --> 00:20:34,800
Speaker 1: are done by the u STR. I'm sure they're in

388
00:20:34,880 --> 00:20:36,840
Speaker 1: contact with the Speaker's office to get this done. I

389
00:20:36,880 --> 00:20:39,000
Speaker 1: mean there's news reports saying the vote could happen as

390
00:20:39,040 --> 00:20:43,480
Speaker 1: soon as next week. So, according to to Bloomberg reporting,

391
00:20:43,520 --> 00:20:47,160
Speaker 1: Democrats are pushing for expanding the powers of US customs

392
00:20:47,240 --> 00:20:49,680
Speaker 1: agents to block the import of goods from Canada and

393
00:20:49,800 --> 00:20:53,040
Speaker 1: Mexico from factories found to be in violation of U

394
00:20:53,160 --> 00:20:57,360
Speaker 1: S m c A labor standards. Yeah, so, and that's

395
00:20:57,400 --> 00:20:59,920
Speaker 1: why she gets it's not all her. I mean she's

396
00:21:00,280 --> 00:21:02,399
Speaker 1: sort of waiting for a highstein from the unions. Right,

397
00:21:02,520 --> 00:21:04,680
Speaker 1: Let's let's let's do what we do Adelko and just

398
00:21:04,760 --> 00:21:06,960
Speaker 1: throw out the book. Um, it's like it's like my

399
00:21:07,040 --> 00:21:09,280
Speaker 1: Tom King expansion. He rips up the script. I'm throwing

400
00:21:09,280 --> 00:21:13,920
Speaker 1: out the book. Let's talk a specifically in Lehman's Lehman's terms,

401
00:21:14,080 --> 00:21:17,359
Speaker 1: what labor expansions are. What is the actual hold up

402
00:21:17,640 --> 00:21:20,520
Speaker 1: for liberals on U S m C I there are

403
00:21:21,240 --> 00:21:25,200
Speaker 1: the thoughts by the American US labor unions that Canada

404
00:21:25,320 --> 00:21:28,080
Speaker 1: and Mexico played by different rules, and that it's easier

405
00:21:28,240 --> 00:21:32,080
Speaker 1: for business to say outsourced manufacturing to Mexico and Canada,

406
00:21:32,200 --> 00:21:34,600
Speaker 1: and it's not fair. And so what would they like

407
00:21:34,760 --> 00:21:37,080
Speaker 1: you have changed? In basic terms? They would like to

408
00:21:37,119 --> 00:21:40,040
Speaker 1: see equality, right, that is the same labor practices that

409
00:21:40,119 --> 00:21:43,160
Speaker 1: are required in America, are required in Canada and Mexico,

410
00:21:43,480 --> 00:21:46,439
Speaker 1: so that it's never gonna happen. It might happen, all right,

411
00:21:46,920 --> 00:21:49,680
Speaker 1: you Fox businesses reporting US as game poker. Come next

412
00:21:49,720 --> 00:21:53,000
Speaker 1: week's c NBC says House Democrats are within range of

413
00:21:53,119 --> 00:21:55,760
Speaker 1: reaching a U. S m c A trade deal. Politico

414
00:21:55,920 --> 00:21:58,840
Speaker 1: trade ministers are close on changes to U S m

415
00:21:58,920 --> 00:22:01,359
Speaker 1: c A, and of course are Blue reporting is that

416
00:22:01,440 --> 00:22:04,720
Speaker 1: all of this is intensifying behind the scenes. Justin speaking

417
00:22:04,800 --> 00:22:09,000
Speaker 1: with several folks, and this week, I mean, they want

418
00:22:09,080 --> 00:22:12,200
Speaker 1: to get this done and and candidly, I think the

419
00:22:12,280 --> 00:22:15,159
Speaker 1: votes are already there. So but what about this monkey wrench.

420
00:22:15,840 --> 00:22:19,040
Speaker 1: Mexico's government is alarmed. The President Trump said he was

421
00:22:19,080 --> 00:22:24,200
Speaker 1: planning to designate Mexican drug cartels as terrorist organizations. That's

422
00:22:24,240 --> 00:22:29,159
Speaker 1: another thing that and it's it's classic Trump strategy to

423
00:22:29,520 --> 00:22:32,040
Speaker 1: you know, just sort of hurl this out there. In

424
00:22:32,160 --> 00:22:35,479
Speaker 1: Mexico sees this asn't an attack on its sovereignty. Well,

425
00:22:35,480 --> 00:22:38,560
Speaker 1: if you look from a procedural standpoint, if light highs

426
00:22:38,600 --> 00:22:40,240
Speaker 1: are the man in the middle is having to negotiate

427
00:22:40,320 --> 00:22:43,160
Speaker 1: with Pelosi, who's caught between a rock and hard place

428
00:22:43,240 --> 00:22:45,359
Speaker 1: with AOC and the lake and the warrant ring of

429
00:22:45,440 --> 00:22:48,680
Speaker 1: the party on U S m c A. If you

430
00:22:48,800 --> 00:22:52,280
Speaker 1: look at it this way, there they Canada and Mexico

431
00:22:52,400 --> 00:22:55,159
Speaker 1: have to procedurally finalize any changes to the U S

432
00:22:55,240 --> 00:22:57,600
Speaker 1: m c A doctrine that everyone's agreed on correct. So

433
00:22:57,840 --> 00:23:00,919
Speaker 1: that would suggest that this that these meeting today, they

434
00:23:01,000 --> 00:23:07,680
Speaker 1: could be you know, going, there's always finalizing the details

435
00:23:08,240 --> 00:23:10,640
Speaker 1: the changes, and then the vote could happen next week,

436
00:23:10,680 --> 00:23:13,080
Speaker 1: do you know what I'm saying? And there's always you know,

437
00:23:13,240 --> 00:23:15,240
Speaker 1: it's there's three parties that are involved. I mean, Otto

438
00:23:15,320 --> 00:23:17,439
Speaker 1: is involved, Mexico City. There's votes that need to take

439
00:23:17,480 --> 00:23:20,920
Speaker 1: place in all three legislative bodies. So that's why is

440
00:23:21,000 --> 00:23:24,280
Speaker 1: there space. My experience on trade deals is a lot

441
00:23:24,320 --> 00:23:26,639
Speaker 1: of things that are said domestically, right, are set for

442
00:23:26,720 --> 00:23:29,840
Speaker 1: domestic political reasons, right. But when you get in a room,

443
00:23:30,320 --> 00:23:33,119
Speaker 1: everybody's smart enough. You get smart politicians on both sides,

444
00:23:33,480 --> 00:23:35,359
Speaker 1: and they're trying to find a path forward. And certainly

445
00:23:35,840 --> 00:23:39,479
Speaker 1: Mexico and Canada need a trade relationship with US. I mean,

446
00:23:39,480 --> 00:23:41,520
Speaker 1: We're the biggest market in the world. So but who's

447
00:23:41,560 --> 00:23:44,000
Speaker 1: them to find a way to move this bill forward? Yeah? Yeah,

448
00:23:44,119 --> 00:23:48,040
Speaker 1: I mean and why shouldn't American labor expect there to

449
00:23:48,200 --> 00:23:51,840
Speaker 1: be equal labor standards, the same labor standards in these

450
00:23:51,920 --> 00:23:56,359
Speaker 1: countries on on this continent. I mean, having high labor

451
00:23:56,440 --> 00:24:00,560
Speaker 1: standards is an expensive proposition. This is why we are

452
00:24:00,840 --> 00:24:05,840
Speaker 1: drawn to moving their factories to other countries because they

453
00:24:05,880 --> 00:24:09,560
Speaker 1: don't face the same labor standards that we have here

454
00:24:09,600 --> 00:24:12,639
Speaker 1: in the United States. And so what the labor units

455
00:24:12,640 --> 00:24:14,280
Speaker 1: are saying is so they just want to eat of

456
00:24:14,840 --> 00:24:17,159
Speaker 1: an even playing field. I don't think that that is

457
00:24:17,520 --> 00:24:21,639
Speaker 1: an unreasonable thing to strive for, and it's totally something

458
00:24:21,800 --> 00:24:25,320
Speaker 1: that the Democratic majority in the House of Representatives would

459
00:24:25,359 --> 00:24:28,440
Speaker 1: take into consideration when voting on this. Yeah, A bigger

460
00:24:28,600 --> 00:24:32,680
Speaker 1: geopolitical viewpoint as well is, you know, strengthening the North

461
00:24:32,760 --> 00:24:38,119
Speaker 1: American manufacturing and commercial market against China, against India. This

462
00:24:38,240 --> 00:24:40,680
Speaker 1: is a positive thing. So at the end of the day,

463
00:24:40,760 --> 00:24:44,160
Speaker 1: I think this is gonna get done. Um, I think,

464
00:24:44,359 --> 00:24:45,720
Speaker 1: you know, for some reason, I feel it's not gonna

465
00:24:45,720 --> 00:24:48,600
Speaker 1: get done until it's gonna move over. But I think

466
00:24:48,640 --> 00:24:50,639
Speaker 1: all signs of that's moving forward, which is possibly. I

467
00:24:50,760 --> 00:24:53,560
Speaker 1: actually think if you're if you're Joe Biden or you're

468
00:24:53,640 --> 00:24:57,000
Speaker 1: progressive and you're going after those votes. I actually think

469
00:24:57,080 --> 00:24:59,359
Speaker 1: the a f l c i OS opposition to this

470
00:24:59,680 --> 00:25:01,480
Speaker 1: is is something that could help you. I think that

471
00:25:01,600 --> 00:25:03,800
Speaker 1: this could get done without the A f l c

472
00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:06,359
Speaker 1: i O s backing, because it would allow people like

473
00:25:06,520 --> 00:25:10,960
Speaker 1: Joe Biden to to say, see that the a f

474
00:25:11,080 --> 00:25:13,000
Speaker 1: l CEO, the a f l c IO was against

475
00:25:13,040 --> 00:25:15,000
Speaker 1: this deal and and I could have gotten a better one.

476
00:25:15,040 --> 00:25:16,959
Speaker 1: Do you know what I mean? Do you I think

477
00:25:17,000 --> 00:25:18,800
Speaker 1: any of these trade deals? And I remember, you know,

478
00:25:18,880 --> 00:25:20,359
Speaker 1: I did some work for Tom Delay when he was

479
00:25:20,400 --> 00:25:23,000
Speaker 1: majority whip. And all politics is local. At the end

480
00:25:23,040 --> 00:25:25,880
Speaker 1: of the day. The main job of an elected official

481
00:25:26,119 --> 00:25:28,600
Speaker 1: or a leader in Congress is to make sure that

482
00:25:28,640 --> 00:25:31,199
Speaker 1: they still have a majority in cock in their caucus.

483
00:25:31,320 --> 00:25:34,280
Speaker 1: So clearly Nancy Pelosi is looking at these numbers. You know,

484
00:25:34,560 --> 00:25:38,159
Speaker 1: certainly it benefits to your point, Kevin, are there Democrats

485
00:25:38,240 --> 00:25:39,639
Speaker 1: that can you know, say I would have done a

486
00:25:39,680 --> 00:25:42,639
Speaker 1: better job. I'm gonna protect you, of course, like, but

487
00:25:42,960 --> 00:25:45,560
Speaker 1: the bigger issue is, you know, we need a trade

488
00:25:45,600 --> 00:25:49,040
Speaker 1: relationship with these two other neighboring nations, and I think

489
00:25:49,080 --> 00:25:51,120
Speaker 1: it's gonna move forward. All right. Coming up, we're gonna

Speaker 1: start with Mark Mark, what's on your radar? My radar is?

509
00:26:53,560 --> 00:26:56,119
Speaker 1: Next week is the seventy the anniversary of the NATO

510
00:26:56,480 --> 00:26:59,640
Speaker 1: Alliance UM, and there's a big meeting, two day meeting

511
00:26:59,840 --> 00:27:03,760
Speaker 1: in London. The Queen Elizabeth will be inviting the delegation

512
00:27:03,800 --> 00:27:07,000
Speaker 1: to bucking and Palace. UM. Obviously there's been a lot

513
00:27:07,040 --> 00:27:09,879
Speaker 1: of talk Macrone, the French president, has been saying some

514
00:27:09,960 --> 00:27:13,359
Speaker 1: interesting things about NATO. Merkel is committed to raising funds.

515
00:27:13,720 --> 00:27:16,000
Speaker 1: The President, as we know, has been very critical of

516
00:27:16,040 --> 00:27:19,760
Speaker 1: the NATO Alliance and the other allies not spending money. Also,

517
00:27:19,920 --> 00:27:23,040
Speaker 1: I just read that while President Trump is in London,

518
00:27:23,240 --> 00:27:26,040
Speaker 1: he's gonna do a fundraiser to raise some money, which

519
00:27:26,080 --> 00:27:29,560
Speaker 1: is allowed Americans ex path living in London can meet

520
00:27:29,600 --> 00:27:31,280
Speaker 1: the President give him a few bucks for his campaign.

521
00:27:31,320 --> 00:27:33,359
Speaker 1: So it should be a busy week next week. Alright,

522
00:27:33,560 --> 00:27:35,640
Speaker 1: very very busy. All right, Luis, what's on your what's

523
00:27:35,680 --> 00:27:38,000
Speaker 1: on your radar? I'm a big, big fan of this

524
00:27:38,280 --> 00:27:42,280
Speaker 1: climate story, and after the u N report this week

525
00:27:42,840 --> 00:27:46,439
Speaker 1: about climate change and how it's really closing in on us.

526
00:27:47,119 --> 00:27:50,400
Speaker 1: UH climate change is the subject of a big conference

527
00:27:50,600 --> 00:27:55,520
Speaker 1: in Madrid next week. Over twenty five thousand politicians, lobbyists

528
00:27:55,520 --> 00:27:59,840
Speaker 1: and influencers are going there. Twenty five thousand people in Madrid.

529
00:28:00,720 --> 00:28:03,359
Speaker 1: So what's the carbon footprint on that. Yeah, I know,

530
00:28:04,200 --> 00:28:05,760
Speaker 1: how long do you figure it's going to take to

531
00:28:06,200 --> 00:28:09,399
Speaker 1: get a cab from the from the airport. We'll be

532
00:28:09,520 --> 00:28:14,520
Speaker 1: riding public transport. It's an environmental climate. Yeah, they're not

533
00:28:14,560 --> 00:28:18,760
Speaker 1: going to be you are you serious anyway? Um? So,

534
00:28:18,960 --> 00:28:21,280
Speaker 1: I think it's very interesting how the Europeans are really

535
00:28:21,440 --> 00:28:24,679
Speaker 1: keyed in on climate change and and like, what are

536
00:28:24,720 --> 00:28:28,720
Speaker 1: we doing? This is my question. What is our government doing?

537
00:28:28,840 --> 00:28:33,040
Speaker 1: What is the Trump administration doing about about climate Nothing?

538
00:28:34,200 --> 00:28:37,600
Speaker 1: And it's and it's it's something that I as an American,

539
00:28:37,640 --> 00:28:42,000
Speaker 1: I am concerned about. Okay, all right, Uh, here's let's

540
00:28:42,000 --> 00:28:44,560
Speaker 1: all my ratar. The Hill newspaper put out a pole,

541
00:28:44,600 --> 00:28:47,640
Speaker 1: a Hill Hairs ex pole, and it shows that there's

542
00:28:47,640 --> 00:28:51,040
Speaker 1: a gender gap between men and women when it comes

543
00:28:51,120 --> 00:28:54,680
Speaker 1: to discussing politics, even though a majority of both genders

544
00:28:54,720 --> 00:28:59,440
Speaker 1: say they feel comfortable talking about the subject of voters,

545
00:29:00,080 --> 00:29:02,800
Speaker 1: they feel comfortable talking about politics with friends and family

546
00:29:02,840 --> 00:29:06,959
Speaker 1: who have different political views, compared to thirty one who

547
00:29:07,040 --> 00:29:10,880
Speaker 1: said they didn't feel comfortable addressing the issue. But men

548
00:29:11,280 --> 00:29:14,720
Speaker 1: are fourteen percentage points more likely to say they feel

549
00:29:14,800 --> 00:29:20,240
Speaker 1: comfortable talking about politics. Wow. Seventy of men polled said

550
00:29:20,560 --> 00:29:23,160
Speaker 1: that they are comfortable talking about political issues. Only six

551
00:29:24,360 --> 00:29:27,640
Speaker 1: of women said this much. So this is the complete

552
00:29:27,680 --> 00:29:30,640
Speaker 1: opposite of my family. I'm the youngest of four and

553
00:29:30,680 --> 00:29:32,880
Speaker 1: I have I have three older sisters, So when I

554
00:29:33,000 --> 00:29:35,320
Speaker 1: was drawing up, I mean, I always joke about it

555
00:29:35,400 --> 00:29:38,600
Speaker 1: on the show. But you know, everyone in my family

556
00:29:38,680 --> 00:29:41,720
Speaker 1: has had a point of view on everything from politics

557
00:29:41,800 --> 00:29:45,640
Speaker 1: to sports to anything. So but this is interesting as

558
00:29:45,680 --> 00:29:49,240
Speaker 1: we head into Thanksgiving tomorrow and and that there's this

559
00:29:49,400 --> 00:29:51,840
Speaker 1: gender gap that men are more likely or are you

560
00:29:51,880 --> 00:29:55,280
Speaker 1: guys surprised by this? No, because men shout about politics

561
00:29:55,440 --> 00:29:58,360
Speaker 1: so and and by nature they're louder than women. So

562
00:29:58,520 --> 00:30:01,160
Speaker 1: you think that's a gender thing that we're because Italian

563
00:30:01,200 --> 00:30:04,880
Speaker 1: Irish Catholic family, everybody was shouting, regardless of guy or girling. Yeah, no,

564
00:30:05,120 --> 00:30:07,680
Speaker 1: but I mean I think in general that men shout

565
00:30:07,760 --> 00:30:11,240
Speaker 1: about politics more than women do so and being louder

566
00:30:11,360 --> 00:30:14,360
Speaker 1: than of course, they're going to be more comfortable, you know,

567
00:30:14,480 --> 00:30:16,560
Speaker 1: to say they're more comfortable talking about what they What

568
00:30:16,680 --> 00:30:19,440
Speaker 1: they mean is they're more comfortable shouting about it and

569
00:30:19,560 --> 00:30:24,640
Speaker 1: women just just can't stand to hear it. I'm surprised

570
00:30:27,560 --> 00:30:32,280
Speaker 1: defending men um maybe because the politics is it's so

571
00:30:32,520 --> 00:30:34,840
Speaker 1: raw and he gets in it's gets so emotional and

572
00:30:35,080 --> 00:30:38,200
Speaker 1: it's not insightful. And I think sometimes it's just it's

573
00:30:38,240 --> 00:30:41,720
Speaker 1: just raw politics. I mean, we're not having a policy discussion,

574
00:30:41,800 --> 00:30:45,280
Speaker 1: so maybe men do like to shout and see more intelligent.

575
00:30:45,440 --> 00:30:48,479
Speaker 1: We never should we never, we never had political arguments

576
00:30:48,520 --> 00:30:52,400
Speaker 1: in my family growing up. Ever, Ever, seriously, ever, Donald

577
00:30:52,480 --> 00:30:59,440
Speaker 1: Trump Jr. Has asked that people should Uh. He has

578
00:30:59,480 --> 00:31:00,800
Speaker 1: this book, Tray Gird. He's been he was on the

579
00:31:00,840 --> 00:31:04,440
Speaker 1: show promoting it. He's on Instagram. He posted that he

580
00:31:04,480 --> 00:31:09,400
Speaker 1: wants people to to videotape themselves picking a fight at Thanksgiving,

581
00:31:09,520 --> 00:31:13,200
Speaker 1: a political fight on Thanksgiving and posting it online. It's

582
00:31:13,280 --> 00:31:19,640
Speaker 1: kind of like the Jimmy Kim Yeah, this is gonna

583
00:31:19,640 --> 00:31:22,440
Speaker 1: be funny. I mean, I'm curious to see these videos,

584
00:31:22,960 --> 00:31:26,040
Speaker 1: you know of folks doing that. Um, what are your

585
00:31:26,200 --> 00:31:29,360
Speaker 1: Thanksgiving traditions? We've got like two minutes left. I think

586
00:31:29,360 --> 00:31:31,440
Speaker 1: the biggest one is getting up watching the Prey. There's

587
00:31:31,480 --> 00:31:34,040
Speaker 1: there there's a pray in Detroit, and of course watching

588
00:31:34,080 --> 00:31:37,760
Speaker 1: that locally, and then of course the Macon Philadelphia. Yeah,

589
00:31:37,760 --> 00:31:39,240
Speaker 1: I think praise you know, it's a nice way to

590
00:31:39,240 --> 00:31:41,240
Speaker 1: start the morning. Maybe a little fire, some coffee, so

591
00:31:41,760 --> 00:31:45,440
Speaker 1: you guys, yeah, exactly that. Yeah, a nice breakfast and

592
00:31:45,520 --> 00:31:48,320
Speaker 1: watching that. I remember when I was a kid. I

593
00:31:48,440 --> 00:31:51,360
Speaker 1: remember my my my late grandmother Memi. She would always

594
00:31:51,360 --> 00:31:53,560
Speaker 1: stay with us the night before and I would wake

595
00:31:53,640 --> 00:31:56,320
Speaker 1: up and Mimi would be, you know, getting the turkey ready,

596
00:31:56,360 --> 00:31:58,200
Speaker 1: and I was like, yeah, oh my gosh, that birds

597
00:31:58,240 --> 00:32:01,200
Speaker 1: like bigger than me. And and then years later, after

598
00:32:01,280 --> 00:32:04,120
Speaker 1: she passed, my dad we started frying the turkey. You guys,

599
00:32:04,160 --> 00:32:07,640
Speaker 1: fry the turkey never. It's so good, it's so much fun,

600
00:32:08,240 --> 00:32:12,840
Speaker 1: very dangerous. My dad and I would do that as well.

601
00:32:13,000 --> 00:32:15,240
Speaker 1: So that was and we did. I told everybody a

602
00:32:15,280 --> 00:32:17,360
Speaker 1: couple of weeks about our tradition of taking a bite

603
00:32:17,400 --> 00:32:19,880
Speaker 1: of the turkey leg and pass saying what you're thankful

604
00:32:19,920 --> 00:32:23,120
Speaker 1: for and passing it around. Very well, it's kind of

605
00:32:23,200 --> 00:32:25,600
Speaker 1: gross if you if we have like sixteen people and

606
00:32:25,640 --> 00:32:27,320
Speaker 1: you would take a bite, pass it around and say

607
00:32:27,360 --> 00:32:29,640
Speaker 1: what you're thankful for? What are you thankful for? Quickly?

608
00:32:29,800 --> 00:32:31,600
Speaker 1: I'm thankful for living in America. I think it's an

609
00:32:31,600 --> 00:32:34,040
Speaker 1: amazing country. Good answer, what are you thankful for? I'm

610
00:32:34,040 --> 00:32:37,240
Speaker 1: thankful for my beautiful family and my great friends. Like you, Kevin,

611
00:32:38,160 --> 00:32:41,680
Speaker 1: I am thankful to be an American. I am incredibly

612
00:32:41,800 --> 00:32:45,400
Speaker 1: thankful for my friends and family as well, and for

613
00:32:45,440 --> 00:32:49,240
Speaker 1: great colleagues like our executive producer Christine Barrata who always writes,

614
00:32:50,320 --> 00:32:52,440
Speaker 1: and for the pizza that we had today. Um, I'm

615
00:32:52,440 --> 00:32:54,840
Speaker 1: going to make an announcement here on bloom Bird Radio.

616
00:32:54,960 --> 00:32:57,760
Speaker 1: Are you running for mayor? No, I'm going to say

617
00:32:57,800 --> 00:33:00,960
Speaker 1: that I agree with Virginia. I think they had after

618
00:33:01,120 --> 00:33:06,840
Speaker 1: careful thought and consideration. I Virginia had the first Thanksgiving

619
00:33:06,920 --> 00:33:11,680
Speaker 1: simply because Boston, Massachusetts their cheats and their New England Patriots.

620
00:33:11,880 --> 00:33:15,200
Speaker 1: I can see them taken that way overboard. You know.

621
00:33:15,320 --> 00:33:17,960
Speaker 1: It's like, as a Boston girl, I am just not

622
00:33:18,160 --> 00:33:21,000
Speaker 1: choking that down. Nancy Lions, my good friend Nancy Lions

623
00:33:21,080 --> 00:33:23,760
Speaker 1: is just put in the chat way to go Virginia obviously.

624
00:33:24,280 --> 00:33:26,320
Speaker 1: You know, leave it to the New England Patriots to

625
00:33:26,400 --> 00:33:29,920
Speaker 1: try to stake their claim on every one Thanksgiving. Hey,

626
00:33:30,200 --> 00:33:32,800
Speaker 1: like I said, Team Virginia, all right, that doesn't for me.

627
00:33:32,840 --> 00:33:36,960
Speaker 1: Happy Thanksgiving everybody. Please please be safe and please do

628
00:33:37,120 --> 00:33:39,560
