1 00:00:01,880 --> 00:00:06,160 Speaker 1: Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio, the George 2 00:00:06,200 --> 00:00:09,280 Speaker 1: Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong. 3 00:00:08,920 --> 00:00:15,520 Speaker 2: And Joe Getty arm Strong and Jetty and he I'm 4 00:00:15,680 --> 00:00:18,360 Speaker 2: Strong and Getty. 5 00:00:24,079 --> 00:00:28,080 Speaker 3: Ukraine firing the first American made long range missiles into Russia, 6 00:00:28,200 --> 00:00:32,199 Speaker 3: targeting an ammunition store in the Brian's border region. Eight missiles, 7 00:00:32,240 --> 00:00:36,360 Speaker 3: known as attackers, were fired and two intercepted. The Kremlin 8 00:00:36,440 --> 00:00:39,800 Speaker 3: appearing to threaten possible use of nuclear weapons in response, 9 00:00:40,000 --> 00:00:42,800 Speaker 3: but the pensacons saying there are no signs it's preparing 10 00:00:42,840 --> 00:00:43,320 Speaker 3: to do so. 11 00:00:44,200 --> 00:00:48,080 Speaker 4: Yeah, that is an interesting development, And I was shocked 12 00:00:48,080 --> 00:00:50,400 Speaker 4: that that wasn't the lead story on the Evening News 13 00:00:50,479 --> 00:00:53,720 Speaker 4: last night. For a lot of people that I follow, 14 00:00:53,800 --> 00:00:56,000 Speaker 4: it was a really, really big deal. 15 00:00:56,120 --> 00:00:56,840 Speaker 2: But it didn't. 16 00:00:57,000 --> 00:00:59,279 Speaker 4: Not only did not lead the Evening News last night, 17 00:00:59,440 --> 00:01:02,520 Speaker 4: couple of cam I saw didn't even mention it. So 18 00:01:02,880 --> 00:01:06,679 Speaker 4: David Sanger and The New York Times wrote yesterday for Russia, 19 00:01:06,760 --> 00:01:10,759 Speaker 4: nuclear weapons are the ultimate bargaining chip, talking about how 20 00:01:10,800 --> 00:01:15,320 Speaker 4: on the one thousandth day of the war, coincidentally, Vladimir 21 00:01:15,440 --> 00:01:20,240 Speaker 4: Zlenzi took advantage of the new permission to use those 22 00:01:20,280 --> 00:01:24,119 Speaker 4: attack them rockets that you just heard about and fired 23 00:01:24,120 --> 00:01:28,600 Speaker 4: them into Russia. At the same time, Russia formally announced 24 00:01:28,920 --> 00:01:32,480 Speaker 4: a new nuclear doctrine, declaring for the first time that 25 00:01:32,520 --> 00:01:35,280 Speaker 4: it would use nuclear weapons not only in response to 26 00:01:35,319 --> 00:01:38,479 Speaker 4: an attack that threatened its survival, but also in any 27 00:01:38,520 --> 00:01:41,520 Speaker 4: response to any attack that posed a threat to its 28 00:01:41,520 --> 00:01:46,640 Speaker 4: sovereignty or territorial integrity, which is exactly what happened yesterday. 29 00:01:46,760 --> 00:01:50,800 Speaker 1: Oh wow, you're hardcore defender of territorial integrity, now, are 30 00:01:50,840 --> 00:01:52,440 Speaker 1: you of lad right? 31 00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:55,280 Speaker 4: And also it declared for the first time the right 32 00:01:55,320 --> 00:01:59,960 Speaker 4: to use nuclear weapons against the state that possesses conventional 33 00:02:00,160 --> 00:02:02,960 Speaker 4: arms only if it is backed by a nuclear power 34 00:02:03,520 --> 00:02:06,960 Speaker 4: Ukraine obviously being backed by the United States in France, 35 00:02:07,520 --> 00:02:12,320 Speaker 4: three of the nine current nuclear powers that exist on Earth. 36 00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:14,880 Speaker 4: And this is the part from the Sanger piece that 37 00:02:14,960 --> 00:02:18,280 Speaker 4: I thought was interesting. Yet it was telling that the 38 00:02:18,320 --> 00:02:21,600 Speaker 4: reaction in Washington on Tuesday was just short of a yawn. 39 00:02:22,320 --> 00:02:26,040 Speaker 4: Officials dismissed the doctrine as the nothing burger of nuclear threats. 40 00:02:26,600 --> 00:02:29,240 Speaker 4: The city was rife with speculation over whether or not 41 00:02:29,360 --> 00:02:33,480 Speaker 4: Matt Gates would get confirmed, but nobody was interested in talking. 42 00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:35,079 Speaker 2: About the possibility of a nuclear war. 43 00:02:38,320 --> 00:02:41,040 Speaker 4: So, as he said, striking the Ukraine War has changed 44 00:02:41,040 --> 00:02:45,000 Speaker 4: many things that it has ended hundreds of thousands of lives, 45 00:02:45,200 --> 00:02:50,600 Speaker 4: shattered millions of lives, shaken Europe, and inured Washington in 46 00:02:50,639 --> 00:02:53,560 Speaker 4: the world to the use of nuclear weapons, apparently as 47 00:02:53,600 --> 00:02:55,840 Speaker 4: a bargaining chip for better or worse. 48 00:02:56,280 --> 00:02:58,480 Speaker 2: I don't know if it's. 49 00:02:58,400 --> 00:03:02,080 Speaker 4: A good thing that you know, the world no longer 50 00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:05,080 Speaker 4: freaks out when somebody threatens that, or if it's a 51 00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:07,480 Speaker 4: bad thing that we've gotten used to it and nothing 52 00:03:07,520 --> 00:03:10,080 Speaker 4: has happened in the past, so nothing will probably happen 53 00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:10,720 Speaker 4: in the future. 54 00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:13,680 Speaker 2: So whatever, I think, all of those things factor. 55 00:03:13,720 --> 00:03:17,240 Speaker 1: And I also think there's probably a belief, especially given 56 00:03:17,280 --> 00:03:21,000 Speaker 1: the that we're dealing with Putin here, that there will 57 00:03:21,040 --> 00:03:26,240 Speaker 1: be other ratcheting up steps of the rhetoric before anything 58 00:03:26,280 --> 00:03:31,040 Speaker 1: goes cur Bluey. He's not going to suddenly leap three 59 00:03:31,080 --> 00:03:35,720 Speaker 1: steps ahead and unleash a tactical nuke on Kiev. See. 60 00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:37,320 Speaker 2: I don't think it. 61 00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:41,160 Speaker 4: Would be Putin's not going to fire a ballistic missile 62 00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:44,520 Speaker 4: of the United States or anything like that. But I 63 00:03:44,720 --> 00:03:48,120 Speaker 4: don't think it would be out of there is out 64 00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:50,360 Speaker 4: of the realm of possibility that he uses a tactical 65 00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:53,920 Speaker 4: nerd nuke on the battlefield, and it gets a hell 66 00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:55,720 Speaker 4: of a lot of attention and push back and everything 67 00:03:55,800 --> 00:04:01,680 Speaker 4: like that. But from reading David Sanger's book The New 68 00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:04,680 Speaker 4: Cold Wars and getting making my way through Bob Woodward's book, 69 00:04:04,720 --> 00:04:08,160 Speaker 4: there's nobody knows how we would react, or certainly how 70 00:04:08,200 --> 00:04:11,400 Speaker 4: Biden would react to the use of a tacular tactical news. 71 00:04:11,480 --> 00:04:14,280 Speaker 4: It's not a given that we would immediately put troops 72 00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:17,239 Speaker 4: in or fire back with a nuclear reapon or anything 73 00:04:17,240 --> 00:04:21,080 Speaker 4: like that. It might just be strong sanctions. Again, a 74 00:04:21,080 --> 00:04:24,760 Speaker 4: lot of you know, this cannot stand sort of language. 75 00:04:24,760 --> 00:04:29,680 Speaker 2: Might be right. Yeah, I wonder this one is so tough. 76 00:04:32,279 --> 00:04:36,880 Speaker 1: There are major flaws and limitations to both sides of 77 00:04:36,920 --> 00:04:38,560 Speaker 1: the we ought to be yarm in Ukraine to the 78 00:04:38,600 --> 00:04:42,599 Speaker 1: teeth and defeating Russia side. There are absolute realities that 79 00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:46,200 Speaker 1: you bought up against, if that's your opinion. And likewise, 80 00:04:46,240 --> 00:04:50,280 Speaker 1: the absolutely indefensible moronic idea that Putin is somehow the 81 00:04:50,760 --> 00:04:55,839 Speaker 1: savior of Western civilization, or and this is less moronic 82 00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:59,480 Speaker 1: but incorrect, the idea that NATO somehow threatened him into 83 00:04:59,560 --> 00:05:05,240 Speaker 1: doing this. You're ignoring Putin's stated goals for years now. Well, 84 00:05:05,279 --> 00:05:08,000 Speaker 1: and I will want to regrow the Soviet Empire. 85 00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:10,600 Speaker 4: And I will say again my personal position is I 86 00:05:10,640 --> 00:05:14,320 Speaker 4: don't want world War three either, but I think letting 87 00:05:14,320 --> 00:05:17,920 Speaker 4: Putin get away with this makes world War three more likely, 88 00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:19,480 Speaker 4: not less likely. 89 00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:23,600 Speaker 2: And I guess we strong response doesn't invite aggression weakness. 90 00:05:23,680 --> 00:05:26,480 Speaker 4: I guess we disagree on this because I follow a 91 00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:28,280 Speaker 4: lot of social media and there's a lot of people 92 00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:32,320 Speaker 4: out there that believe, like Biden, using the allowing attackers 93 00:05:32,360 --> 00:05:35,400 Speaker 4: yesterday gets us closer to World War three. So, for 94 00:05:35,440 --> 00:05:38,920 Speaker 4: the first time ever, according to Gallup, more than half 95 00:05:38,960 --> 00:05:42,080 Speaker 4: of Ukrainians want the war to end as soon as possible. 96 00:05:42,440 --> 00:05:48,520 Speaker 4: Is now crossed that threshold just recently fifty two thirty eight, 97 00:05:49,880 --> 00:05:52,200 Speaker 4: which of the following statements about the war with Russia 98 00:05:52,279 --> 00:05:56,280 Speaker 4: comes closest to your personal views, and what they want 99 00:05:56,680 --> 00:05:59,280 Speaker 4: is the ultimate decision. What we want in the United 100 00:05:59,320 --> 00:06:01,839 Speaker 4: States doesn't determine. It's what Ukrainians want to do with 101 00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:03,839 Speaker 4: how much they want to fight and everything like that. 102 00:06:04,279 --> 00:06:10,280 Speaker 4: Should continue fighting the war until they win thirty eight percent. 103 00:06:10,640 --> 00:06:13,040 Speaker 4: Ukraine should seek to negotiate an ending to the war 104 00:06:13,080 --> 00:06:16,640 Speaker 4: as soon as possible fifty two percent, So pretty clear 105 00:06:16,680 --> 00:06:19,479 Speaker 4: win for that now so what's that going to look 106 00:06:19,560 --> 00:06:22,840 Speaker 4: like negotiate an end of the war. Here's James Stravitus, 107 00:06:22,880 --> 00:06:25,159 Speaker 4: who was the head guy at NATO for a while 108 00:06:25,440 --> 00:06:27,320 Speaker 4: on MSNBC Today talking about that. 109 00:06:27,640 --> 00:06:30,919 Speaker 5: And then strategically, what I think the Biden team is about, 110 00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:35,479 Speaker 5: and it's a smart play, is to give Vo Lodimir 111 00:06:35,600 --> 00:06:40,200 Speaker 5: Zelenski as many chips for the bargaining table as he 112 00:06:40,279 --> 00:06:44,840 Speaker 5: can possibly have. He's holding a chunk of Russia around Kursk. 113 00:06:45,160 --> 00:06:49,159 Speaker 5: Here's another bargaining chip, a TACKS missile, So I think 114 00:06:49,160 --> 00:06:51,920 Speaker 5: there are implications in all domains. And he goes on, 115 00:06:52,440 --> 00:06:56,120 Speaker 5: He's lost two hundred thousand killed in action, four hundred 116 00:06:56,240 --> 00:07:01,359 Speaker 5: thousand who are grievously wounded, six hundred thousand who have 117 00:07:01,560 --> 00:07:05,360 Speaker 5: left the country to avoid the draft. He is now 118 00:07:05,480 --> 00:07:11,960 Speaker 5: approaching civil warlike levels of casualties. It's a terrifying thing 119 00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:15,040 Speaker 5: in my view if you are a member of. 120 00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:16,280 Speaker 2: The Russian population. 121 00:07:16,760 --> 00:07:19,920 Speaker 5: So I think between the bargaining chips, you're absolutely right. 122 00:07:20,080 --> 00:07:23,880 Speaker 5: The chunk of territory that the Ukrainians hold of Russia, 123 00:07:24,360 --> 00:07:28,240 Speaker 5: the new a tacms, the F sixteens, which are starting 124 00:07:28,240 --> 00:07:32,360 Speaker 5: to have real impact. Those are operational military bargaining chips. 125 00:07:32,760 --> 00:07:34,520 Speaker 5: On the other side of it is going to be 126 00:07:34,600 --> 00:07:38,680 Speaker 5: casualties inflicted on Russia. Those two things I think might 127 00:07:38,840 --> 00:07:42,120 Speaker 5: help get Putin to the bargaining table. 128 00:07:42,240 --> 00:07:43,560 Speaker 2: So I watched that whole interview. 129 00:07:43,600 --> 00:07:46,280 Speaker 4: Stravenis believes Ukraine is going to have to give up 130 00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:50,560 Speaker 4: twenty percent of their territory, which is a lot. That's 131 00:07:50,600 --> 00:07:53,960 Speaker 4: a lot of your country you're given up, but it 132 00:07:54,000 --> 00:07:58,680 Speaker 4: could end the war and that would only be for you, hope. 133 00:07:58,840 --> 00:08:04,040 Speaker 4: You would hopeuarantees that are actual guarantees from NATO and 134 00:08:04,040 --> 00:08:06,320 Speaker 4: more importantly the United States that you don't get a 135 00:08:06,360 --> 00:08:09,040 Speaker 4: second bite of the apple Russia or we actually NATO 136 00:08:09,120 --> 00:08:12,200 Speaker 4: actually is going to push back. You'd have to have that, 137 00:08:12,240 --> 00:08:15,160 Speaker 4: wouldn't you that NATO like a fourth. 138 00:08:14,920 --> 00:08:15,760 Speaker 2: Bite of the apple? 139 00:08:15,840 --> 00:08:20,440 Speaker 1: Which is not cribbling this pointing something out by saying that, yeah. 140 00:08:20,040 --> 00:08:22,520 Speaker 4: But wouldn't you have to have a full on NATO 141 00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:25,400 Speaker 4: will come to your defense guarantee for Ukraine to agree 142 00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:31,960 Speaker 4: to give up twenty percent of their land with troops present. Yeah, 143 00:08:32,040 --> 00:08:33,680 Speaker 4: with NATO troops present. 144 00:08:33,760 --> 00:08:37,200 Speaker 2: Or something that is the equivalent. But would would Putin 145 00:08:37,280 --> 00:08:37,760 Speaker 2: agree to that? 146 00:08:37,840 --> 00:08:41,520 Speaker 4: I mean, in his biggest concern was having a NATO 147 00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:44,240 Speaker 4: country on his border. He would basically have a NATO 148 00:08:44,280 --> 00:08:45,959 Speaker 4: country on his border, whether they were a member of 149 00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:48,400 Speaker 4: NATO or not. If there are NATO troops there, there 150 00:08:48,400 --> 00:08:52,440 Speaker 4: would be a STREVETUS talked about a wide DMZ to 151 00:08:52,480 --> 00:08:55,079 Speaker 4: militarized zone, So it wouldn't be right on the border. 152 00:08:55,240 --> 00:08:57,520 Speaker 4: There would be many miles in between the two countries, 153 00:08:57,559 --> 00:08:59,640 Speaker 4: but it would be NATO troops right there. That's the 154 00:08:59,640 --> 00:09:01,839 Speaker 4: only one you keep putting from going back again. 155 00:09:02,800 --> 00:09:06,559 Speaker 1: Well, and anybody who has studied the history of warfare, 156 00:09:06,640 --> 00:09:10,120 Speaker 1: both modern and ancient, knows that just because you come 157 00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:14,080 Speaker 1: to the bargaining table doesn't mean you reach a bargain right. 158 00:09:14,200 --> 00:09:16,319 Speaker 2: So to assume that, I think is a mistake. 159 00:09:16,520 --> 00:09:18,640 Speaker 1: Jack before we run out of time, run out of time, 160 00:09:18,679 --> 00:09:22,480 Speaker 1: A tragic note from the world of from the art world. 161 00:09:23,080 --> 00:09:29,160 Speaker 1: You know that in Russia ballet stars are national heroes. 162 00:09:29,440 --> 00:09:30,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's huge. 163 00:09:30,720 --> 00:09:33,680 Speaker 1: Russia, for all of it's false and like never ever 164 00:09:33,800 --> 00:09:38,320 Speaker 1: having representative government, has incredibly rich arts and has for 165 00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:38,800 Speaker 1: a long time. 166 00:09:38,840 --> 00:09:40,880 Speaker 4: But this is I've got a very sad I've got 167 00:09:40,880 --> 00:09:43,080 Speaker 4: a good selfie of myself in front of the Bullshey 168 00:09:43,720 --> 00:09:46,800 Speaker 4: Theater there in Moscow, I took a selfie of myself 169 00:09:46,840 --> 00:09:48,680 Speaker 4: trying to do a pirouet right in front of the bullshit. 170 00:09:51,040 --> 00:09:53,560 Speaker 2: Or we could post that at armstring and get a 171 00:09:53,760 --> 00:09:54,880 Speaker 2: dot com. That'd be charming. 172 00:09:55,600 --> 00:09:57,839 Speaker 1: But back to the tragic story from the art world. 173 00:09:58,679 --> 00:10:07,800 Speaker 1: Russian ballet star Vladimir Kylarov has has passed away.

The most powerful rocket 337 00:18:23,240 --> 00:18:27,200 Speaker 6: ever built blasting off from Texas yesterday with its creator, 338 00:18:27,560 --> 00:18:31,359 Speaker 6: Elon Musk, looking on, with the President elect of the 339 00:18:31,440 --> 00:18:35,120 Speaker 6: United States, Donald Trump, wearing a hat said forty five 340 00:18:35,240 --> 00:18:38,119 Speaker 6: and forty seven, making the trip with his billionaire buddy 341 00:18:38,160 --> 00:18:41,200 Speaker 6: to take in the launch, just days after they both 342 00:18:41,200 --> 00:18:45,879 Speaker 6: attended a UFC fight at Madison Square Garden, where the 343 00:18:45,880 --> 00:18:49,840 Speaker 6: winner did Trump's signature dance after the knockout. 344 00:18:51,200 --> 00:18:54,000 Speaker 1: Why does she sound like she's describing that incident in 345 00:18:54,040 --> 00:18:57,520 Speaker 1: which a Philadelphia Eagles fan eat eight horseman. 346 00:18:57,280 --> 00:19:01,119 Speaker 4: Or I wanted to get let's play the one I 347 00:19:01,119 --> 00:19:04,359 Speaker 4: wanted to get on that is thirty two, please? 348 00:19:05,520 --> 00:19:06,880 Speaker 2: Not just a high profile name. 349 00:19:06,960 --> 00:19:11,080 Speaker 7: Doctor Oz is also a television star, so something that 350 00:19:11,119 --> 00:19:14,760 Speaker 7: he Donald Trump is clearly making a repetition of. Obviously, yesterday, 351 00:19:14,760 --> 00:19:17,480 Speaker 7: as we announced, he was said that he was choosing 352 00:19:17,480 --> 00:19:19,920 Speaker 7: Sean Duffy, who is the host of Fox Business as 353 00:19:19,920 --> 00:19:22,040 Speaker 7: well as a reality TV star, as the head of 354 00:19:22,080 --> 00:19:25,520 Speaker 7: the Transportation Department. Now we know that he is going 355 00:19:25,560 --> 00:19:28,080 Speaker 7: to choose rem and Oz as the head of centers 356 00:19:28,080 --> 00:19:29,960 Speaker 7: for Medicare and Medicaid services. 357 00:19:30,280 --> 00:19:32,560 Speaker 4: Come on, even if you're a Trump supporter, you gotta 358 00:19:32,640 --> 00:19:40,000 Speaker 4: admit he chooses an awful lot of people from television, Yes, right, clearly, yes, 359 00:19:40,800 --> 00:19:43,880 Speaker 4: I mean and again I wonder is it because he 360 00:19:43,960 --> 00:19:47,160 Speaker 4: knows them from TV? Or is it because he thinks, 361 00:19:47,200 --> 00:19:50,119 Speaker 4: you know what, the average voter out there barely pays attention. 362 00:19:50,160 --> 00:19:52,040 Speaker 4: And we're going to get to that here in a 363 00:19:52,080 --> 00:19:54,720 Speaker 4: few seconds about the election. But the average voter out 364 00:19:54,760 --> 00:19:57,199 Speaker 4: there just barely pays attention, and people they see on 365 00:19:57,240 --> 00:20:00,360 Speaker 4: TV makes them more excited about my picks. That might 366 00:20:00,359 --> 00:20:04,040 Speaker 4: actually be his strategy. I wonder. 367 00:20:04,320 --> 00:20:05,199 Speaker 2: I think that's part of it. 368 00:20:05,240 --> 00:20:06,920 Speaker 1: The other part of it is this is a guy 369 00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:09,639 Speaker 1: who we've agreed he will execute my vision. He is 370 00:20:09,720 --> 00:20:13,639 Speaker 1: not some old hand in Washington, DC. That's gonna smile 371 00:20:13,680 --> 00:20:16,280 Speaker 1: to my face and then slow walk every single thing 372 00:20:16,320 --> 00:20:19,000 Speaker 1: I want to get done to protect all of his cronies. 373 00:20:19,040 --> 00:20:22,480 Speaker 4: So some interesting reporting came out yesterday about people who 374 00:20:22,600 --> 00:20:26,280 Speaker 4: voted made their decisions at the very end, like last week, 375 00:20:27,000 --> 00:20:31,040 Speaker 4: last days, or day of. I know, for most of us, 376 00:20:31,119 --> 00:20:36,879 Speaker 4: it's impossible to imagine. You didn't know between Kamala Harrison 377 00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:40,960 Speaker 4: Donald Trump, with their stark differences in all the baggage, 378 00:20:41,480 --> 00:20:43,159 Speaker 4: You didn't know who you're going to go vote for 379 00:20:43,200 --> 00:20:47,240 Speaker 4: on that last day. But they broke heavily toward Trump. 380 00:20:47,440 --> 00:20:49,800 Speaker 4: The people who decided in the last week, last days, 381 00:20:49,960 --> 00:20:53,040 Speaker 4: and day of, I mean overwhelmingly toward Trump. So if 382 00:20:53,080 --> 00:20:56,040 Speaker 4: you got a practically tied election with whatever it was, 383 00:20:56,119 --> 00:20:59,320 Speaker 4: ten percent undecided and the undecided to break overwhelmingly toward 384 00:20:59,359 --> 00:21:02,359 Speaker 4: one person, that person wins, which is what happened. But 385 00:21:02,720 --> 00:21:05,679 Speaker 4: so I came onto this from a tweet from Ian Bremer, 386 00:21:05,760 --> 00:21:11,119 Speaker 4: which I can't figure out if this news organization is 387 00:21:11,400 --> 00:21:14,280 Speaker 4: jerking with me, jerking me hair, or if they know 388 00:21:14,359 --> 00:21:16,479 Speaker 4: what they're saying or they don't quite want to say it. 389 00:21:16,600 --> 00:21:18,720 Speaker 2: Anyway, Ian Bremer tweeted out the. 390 00:21:18,680 --> 00:21:23,240 Speaker 4: Percentage of swing voters that chose Trump and believed the 391 00:21:23,280 --> 00:21:27,840 Speaker 4: Harris campaign supported taxpayer funding for transgender surgeries was eighty 392 00:21:27,880 --> 00:21:35,000 Speaker 4: three percent. So eighty three percent of swing voters believed 393 00:21:35,520 --> 00:21:41,200 Speaker 4: keyword here that Harris was into that whole taxpayer sex changes. 394 00:21:40,960 --> 00:21:42,600 Speaker 2: For you know, that whole thing. 395 00:21:43,000 --> 00:21:45,320 Speaker 1: Well, where the heck did they come by that belief? 396 00:21:45,440 --> 00:21:47,560 Speaker 1: That's what I want to know, right, So is. 397 00:21:47,520 --> 00:21:50,560 Speaker 4: The implication there that they believed something untrue? 398 00:21:51,880 --> 00:21:53,240 Speaker 2: Okay, well, let me make you some. 399 00:21:53,080 --> 00:21:55,720 Speaker 1: Sort of pardon me. But we ass effort to cloud 400 00:21:55,880 --> 00:21:58,280 Speaker 1: those waters. That's what we heard her say it with 401 00:21:58,280 --> 00:21:59,760 Speaker 1: their own mouth. 402 00:22:00,080 --> 00:22:03,400 Speaker 4: So the headline of the organization that wrote this blueprint 403 00:22:03,440 --> 00:22:08,240 Speaker 4: twenty twenty twenty four, their headline was Swing voters misperceptions 404 00:22:08,280 --> 00:22:12,200 Speaker 4: of Harris and late turn to Trump. These voters, who 405 00:22:12,240 --> 00:22:15,000 Speaker 4: remained open to persuasion until the very end, delivered not 406 00:22:15,080 --> 00:22:17,800 Speaker 4: just a rejection of Harris, but what they believed the 407 00:22:17,800 --> 00:22:22,479 Speaker 4: Democratic Party stands for absorbing right wing narratives. See, all 408 00:22:22,520 --> 00:22:26,760 Speaker 4: of this is fudgie. That's exactly one hundred percent true. 409 00:22:27,119 --> 00:22:30,960 Speaker 4: But you're kind of implying that people believe stuff that 410 00:22:31,080 --> 00:22:33,879 Speaker 4: wasn't true. But you're not saying that some of those 411 00:22:34,000 --> 00:22:39,040 Speaker 4: narratives were true. Lots of narratives are true. The narrative 412 00:22:39,040 --> 00:22:42,280 Speaker 4: that I'm a father of two is a true narrative. 413 00:22:42,680 --> 00:22:45,240 Speaker 2: So they So, what do you think they're doing here? 414 00:22:45,240 --> 00:22:48,680 Speaker 4: They are they just trying to like satisfy people who 415 00:22:48,720 --> 00:22:51,600 Speaker 4: want to hate on Trump voters, but don't have the 416 00:22:51,640 --> 00:22:54,119 Speaker 4: guts to say it out loud because will they be lying? 417 00:22:55,560 --> 00:22:58,600 Speaker 1: I think so, Yeah, it's just pandering. You're not going 418 00:22:58,680 --> 00:23:01,320 Speaker 1: to challenge any of the beliefs to the bubble people 419 00:23:01,359 --> 00:23:04,840 Speaker 1: within your orbit. Although the interesting you know aspect of 420 00:23:04,880 --> 00:23:06,359 Speaker 1: that to me is that a lot of people within 421 00:23:06,440 --> 00:23:11,959 Speaker 1: that bubble would be fine with taxpayers paying for sexually confused, 422 00:23:12,080 --> 00:23:15,080 Speaker 1: murderous lunatics sex change operations. 423 00:23:15,240 --> 00:23:17,760 Speaker 4: Well, I responded to Ian Bremer, and he gets so 424 00:23:17,760 --> 00:23:18,440 Speaker 4: many responses. 425 00:23:18,480 --> 00:23:19,280 Speaker 2: I'm sure he didn't see it. 426 00:23:19,320 --> 00:23:23,800 Speaker 4: But I responded to in Bremer that, well, people believed 427 00:23:23,840 --> 00:23:26,679 Speaker 4: that because she once said it, and when she was 428 00:23:26,720 --> 00:23:31,040 Speaker 4: given the opportunity to clean it up, she didn't remember when. 429 00:23:30,920 --> 00:23:32,960 Speaker 2: She was where do you stand on this, I'll follow 430 00:23:33,000 --> 00:23:33,359 Speaker 2: the law. 431 00:23:33,840 --> 00:23:38,240 Speaker 4: Well, does that mean you still support taxpayers funding sex 432 00:23:38,320 --> 00:23:40,119 Speaker 4: change operations for illegals? 433 00:23:40,480 --> 00:23:41,520 Speaker 2: I'll follow the law. 434 00:23:41,760 --> 00:23:45,160 Speaker 4: So she had an opportunity to disavow her own position, 435 00:23:45,600 --> 00:23:48,600 Speaker 4: and she passed on it. That's not the fault of 436 00:23:48,640 --> 00:23:51,400 Speaker 4: the voters if they believe the narrative. 437 00:23:51,960 --> 00:23:52,240 Speaker 3: Kind of. 438 00:23:52,800 --> 00:23:55,840 Speaker 1: She just expressed that sentiment that once in that clip 439 00:23:55,880 --> 00:23:57,000 Speaker 1: that we saw in the campaign. 440 00:23:57,000 --> 00:23:58,359 Speaker 2: Ad right, she espoused that. 441 00:23:58,280 --> 00:24:02,800 Speaker 1: For years, and so that the article is somehow implying 442 00:24:02,920 --> 00:24:09,159 Speaker 1: that voters stupid, stupid, paranoid voters assumed that she still 443 00:24:09,240 --> 00:24:12,080 Speaker 1: has those beliefs just because she said them over and 444 00:24:12,119 --> 00:24:13,760 Speaker 1: over again and never disavowed them. 445 00:24:14,000 --> 00:24:16,600 Speaker 4: Yeah, that's what we assumed. Yeah, and when given the chance, 446 00:24:16,680 --> 00:24:19,240 Speaker 4: that makes us idiots play right, and when given the 447 00:24:19,320 --> 00:24:22,480 Speaker 4: chance to clean that up on a big, giant national platform. 448 00:24:22,480 --> 00:24:24,159 Speaker 4: I don't remember which interview it was, but it was 449 00:24:24,160 --> 00:24:25,800 Speaker 4: one of the highly anticipated. 450 00:24:25,800 --> 00:24:27,760 Speaker 2: It might have been in the sixty minutes she took 451 00:24:27,760 --> 00:24:31,040 Speaker 2: a pass or that was Brett Baar. I think, oh 452 00:24:31,080 --> 00:24:32,840 Speaker 2: was it Brett Baar? Okay, fine, I'll follow that. 453 00:24:32,960 --> 00:24:34,880 Speaker 4: It was one of the real high profile interviews because 454 00:24:34,920 --> 00:24:38,399 Speaker 4: she didn't do very many. I mean, this really pisses 455 00:24:38,440 --> 00:24:42,040 Speaker 4: me off, This really makes me angry. Key findings here 456 00:24:42,119 --> 00:24:45,120 Speaker 4: late break for Trump. Swing voters broke for Trump fifty 457 00:24:45,160 --> 00:24:49,000 Speaker 4: two to thirty eight for Harris overall, which is huge 458 00:24:49,040 --> 00:24:49,879 Speaker 4: in a close election. 459 00:24:50,359 --> 00:24:51,760 Speaker 2: Nearly half of swing. 460 00:24:51,560 --> 00:24:54,320 Speaker 4: Voters who chose Trump made their decision in the final weeks, 461 00:24:54,600 --> 00:24:58,840 Speaker 4: including twenty seven percent in the final days, fifteen percent 462 00:24:58,880 --> 00:25:01,840 Speaker 4: in the last week, and twelve percent on election day. 463 00:25:02,280 --> 00:25:07,159 Speaker 4: Twelve percent of swing voters decided on election day. I 464 00:25:07,200 --> 00:25:10,280 Speaker 4: don't even know what your deal is, but all right, 465 00:25:10,920 --> 00:25:12,440 Speaker 4: I mean, you get to do it however you want. 466 00:25:12,520 --> 00:25:17,919 Speaker 4: But how you're supposed to reach people who don't have 467 00:25:18,080 --> 00:25:20,760 Speaker 4: it figured out until the day they walk in. 468 00:25:21,200 --> 00:25:21,640 Speaker 2: Wow. 469 00:25:23,359 --> 00:25:27,199 Speaker 1: And I don't like to term culture war issues because 470 00:25:27,200 --> 00:25:29,280 Speaker 1: that's often used by the left to make it sound 471 00:25:29,320 --> 00:25:32,440 Speaker 1: like people are crazy for defending like the very norms 472 00:25:32,440 --> 00:25:36,880 Speaker 1: of society. But I guarantee you that's stuff, and it's 473 00:25:36,880 --> 00:25:40,920 Speaker 1: difficult to quantify exactly that stuff matters. 474 00:25:41,640 --> 00:25:42,800 Speaker 2: Now, if somebody. 475 00:25:42,480 --> 00:25:46,000 Speaker 1: Had the world's most brilliant economic ideas, we're going to 476 00:25:46,080 --> 00:25:51,040 Speaker 1: keep inflation low, you know, the economy would surge, chicken 477 00:25:51,080 --> 00:25:52,359 Speaker 1: in every pot, et cetera. 478 00:25:53,000 --> 00:25:55,440 Speaker 2: They had some somewhat odd. 479 00:25:55,400 --> 00:25:59,760 Speaker 1: Social ideas, man, you'd be tempted to just swell. Maybe 480 00:25:59,800 --> 00:26:02,200 Speaker 1: I'll just to do a speech against the social issues. 481 00:26:02,200 --> 00:26:05,280 Speaker 1: But let's get her going. When you combine inflation with 482 00:26:05,480 --> 00:26:11,359 Speaker 1: just utterly abhorrent radical came out of nowhere and rigidly 483 00:26:11,480 --> 00:26:13,199 Speaker 1: enforced social doctrines. 484 00:26:13,280 --> 00:26:15,359 Speaker 2: Now go to hell, get out. We don't want you. 485 00:26:15,440 --> 00:26:17,400 Speaker 4: Maybe I'm making too big a deal of this two 486 00:26:17,440 --> 00:26:21,120 Speaker 4: weeks after the election. But here's their other paragraph. Tell 487 00:26:21,160 --> 00:26:24,200 Speaker 4: me this isn't fudgy. Eighty percent of swing voters who 488 00:26:24,320 --> 00:26:28,280 Speaker 4: chose Trump believed Harris held positions she didn't campaign on 489 00:26:28,320 --> 00:26:32,680 Speaker 4: in twenty twenty four, including supporting including supporting tax payer 490 00:26:32,720 --> 00:26:35,399 Speaker 4: funding for transgender surgeries from documented immigrants. 491 00:26:37,040 --> 00:26:38,240 Speaker 2: No, that's not fudgy. 492 00:26:38,240 --> 00:26:43,800 Speaker 1: It's deliberately misleading without crossing the line into a laws 493 00:26:43,840 --> 00:26:45,320 Speaker 1: stating an out and out falsehood. 494 00:26:45,400 --> 00:26:47,680 Speaker 4: Right, So they're doing that on purpose. She didn't campaign 495 00:26:47,680 --> 00:26:49,960 Speaker 4: on twenty twenty four. No, she didn't campaign on it 496 00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:52,720 Speaker 4: because it was incredibly unpopular, but she did. But she 497 00:26:52,880 --> 00:26:55,879 Speaker 4: did campaign in twenty nineteen, and when she was given 498 00:26:55,880 --> 00:27:00,000 Speaker 4: a chance to disavow it, she took a pass. 499 00:27:00,080 --> 00:27:02,800 Speaker 2: So don't.

How about have a bud? 540 00:29:07,400 --> 00:29:10,880 Speaker 1: Oh my god, us ooh, it's exhausting when I have 541 00:29:11,000 --> 00:29:13,320 Speaker 1: those channeling moments. 542 00:29:16,320 --> 00:29:19,640 Speaker 2: It is time for us to do what we have 543 00:29:19,760 --> 00:29:21,800 Speaker 2: been doing in that time as every day. 544 00:29:22,080 --> 00:29:25,280 Speaker 4: As well, said Trump voters believed things she didn't even 545 00:29:25,320 --> 00:29:27,080 Speaker 4: campaign on in twenty twenty four. 546 00:29:27,520 --> 00:29:30,840 Speaker 2: If you, oh, that pisses me off. 547 00:29:31,120 --> 00:29:33,760 Speaker 1: I think we may have begun the discussion with a 548 00:29:33,800 --> 00:29:36,880 Speaker 1: mention of doctor Oz, who is unquestionably a quack and 549 00:29:36,920 --> 00:29:37,760 Speaker 1: agree to have fun. 550 00:29:39,520 --> 00:29:40,880 Speaker 2: He's a smart guy. 551 00:29:42,080 --> 00:29:44,920 Speaker 1: I wonder, I wonder if he is the sort of 552 00:29:45,400 --> 00:29:48,400 Speaker 1: hammer that it's going to take to reform. The Department 553 00:29:48,440 --> 00:29:51,240 Speaker 1: of Health and Human Services has more than six thousand employees, 554 00:29:52,520 --> 00:29:55,680 Speaker 1: and his agency, the agency he heads up, would would 555 00:29:55,720 --> 00:29:58,440 Speaker 1: fall under that, but it plays a major role in 556 00:29:58,480 --> 00:30:01,080 Speaker 1: shaping the health coverage of morton. One hundred and thirty 557 00:30:01,400 --> 00:30:05,680 Speaker 1: million Americans. Wow enrolled in Medicare, Medicaid and plans obtained 558 00:30:05,680 --> 00:30:09,320 Speaker 1: through the Affordable Care Act. So he would work under 559 00:30:10,000 --> 00:30:14,800 Speaker 1: RFKA Junior for the love of Heaven. But that this 560 00:30:14,840 --> 00:30:17,880 Speaker 1: isn't a you can have real impact. So this doctor 561 00:30:17,880 --> 00:30:20,240 Speaker 1: Oz thing is not something he has to get confirmed for. 562 00:30:22,080 --> 00:30:24,800 Speaker 2: That I don't know. Yes, he will be. 563 00:30:25,240 --> 00:30:27,040 Speaker 1: He will need to be confirmed by the Senate next 564 00:30:27,120 --> 00:30:29,760 Speaker 1: year before he officially takes charge of the agency. 565 00:30:29,800 --> 00:30:30,000 Speaker 2: Wow. 566 00:30:30,000 --> 00:30:32,080 Speaker 4: It'll be interesting to follow these confirmations to see how 567 00:30:32,080 --> 00:30:33,959 Speaker 4: they play out. A lot of my favorite pundits think 568 00:30:34,000 --> 00:30:36,280 Speaker 4: Trump's going to get all these people through. I'm surprised 569 00:30:36,280 --> 00:30:36,600 Speaker 4: by that. 570 00:30:37,440 --> 00:30:41,160 Speaker 1: But while many of these choices are have to deal 571 00:30:41,240 --> 00:30:43,640 Speaker 1: with discretionary spending, which is a smallish part of the 572 00:30:43,640 --> 00:30:46,880 Speaker 1: federal budget. Oz is going right into the belly of 573 00:30:46,920 --> 00:30:50,200 Speaker 1: the entitlement beast to see what sort of waste, fraud, abuse, 574 00:30:50,240 --> 00:30:53,360 Speaker 1: and inefficiency he can root out. You know, having said 575 00:30:53,360 --> 00:30:55,200 Speaker 1: what I said about im, which I will take to 576 00:30:55,240 --> 00:30:59,800 Speaker 1: the grave that belief, because it's true, you know who knows, 577 00:31:00,840 --> 00:31:04,360 Speaker 1: who knows? Maybe he can get something done. He will 578 00:31:04,400 --> 00:31:08,760 Speaker 1: be fighting against a bureaucracy so entrenched people who are 579 00:31:08,800 --> 00:31:13,240 Speaker 1: so determined to protect their jobs, their turf, their power, 580 00:31:13,760 --> 00:31:18,160 Speaker 1: their budget. It will be a herculean task. Nice why 581 00:31:18,160 --> 00:31:20,880 Speaker 1: he has Bobby Kennedy with him, because Bobby's, you know, 582 00:31:20,920 --> 00:31:23,640 Speaker 1: a bit of a roid guys herculean physique. 583 00:31:23,680 --> 00:31:26,680 Speaker 4: If I'm gonna stretch my ability to be in favor 584 00:31:26,720 --> 00:31:29,680 Speaker 4: of doctor Oz and RFK Junior and some of these people, 585 00:31:29,760 --> 00:31:33,400 Speaker 4: it's that they're so wealthy they don't have to You 586 00:31:33,480 --> 00:31:37,040 Speaker 4: can't buy them off. Really, they're not going to do 587 00:31:37,080 --> 00:31:40,080 Speaker 4: it because they're getting paid or promised a job. On 588 00:31:40,120 --> 00:31:44,440 Speaker 4: the other end, that is true, they will not jump 589 00:31:44,480 --> 00:31:47,520 Speaker 4: back and forth across the aisle working for lobbyists than 590 00:31:47,520 --> 00:31:48,680 Speaker 4: their agency than the lobbyist. 591 00:31:48,760 --> 00:31:51,720 Speaker 2: Again, look at me managing to find a positive um. 592 00:31:53,080 --> 00:31:56,920 Speaker 4: We have a verdict in one very high profile, controversial trial. 593 00:31:56,960 --> 00:31:58,160 Speaker 2: We'll get to that coming up.
