1
00:00:00,800 --> 00:00:03,119
Speaker 1: My name is Lily Maddon and I'm a proud Arunda

2
00:00:03,320 --> 00:00:08,119
Speaker 1: Bunjelung Cargottin woman from Gadighl Country. The Daily oz acknowledges

3
00:00:08,200 --> 00:00:10,400
Speaker 1: that this podcast is recorded on the lands of the

Speaker 1: Gadighl people and pays respect to all Aboriginal and Torres

5

Speaker 1: Strait Island and nations. We pay our respects to the

Speaker 1: first peoples of these countries, both past and present.

7
00:00:25,160 --> 00:00:27,720
Speaker 2: Good morning, and welcome to the Daily os. It's Thursday,

8
00:00:27,800 --> 00:00:30,720
Speaker 2: the twenty seventh of April. I'm Sam, I'm Nina. Now

9
00:00:30,720 --> 00:00:34,040
Speaker 2: that we know Joe Biden is officially running for reelection,

10
00:00:34,280 --> 00:00:36,680
Speaker 2: it seems we could be in for another round of

11
00:00:36,760 --> 00:00:39,519
Speaker 2: the Biden Trump presidential race of twenty twenty.

12
00:00:39,640 --> 00:00:42,240
Speaker 3: This could be the rematch that nobody really wanted.

13
00:00:42,400 --> 00:00:45,360
Speaker 2: So what do both politicians have to do to guarantee

14
00:00:45,400 --> 00:00:49,240
Speaker 2: their position in the presidential race and the big question

15
00:00:49,800 --> 00:00:52,960
Speaker 2: who's likely to be the next president of the United States.

16
00:00:53,440 --> 00:00:55,160
Speaker 2: We're going to let you know in the deep dive.

17
00:00:55,360 --> 00:01:01,160
Speaker 2: But first, Nina, what's making headlines this morning?

18
00:01:02,080 --> 00:01:04,760
Speaker 4: The rise of inflation slow to seven percent in the

19
00:01:04,840 --> 00:01:07,920
Speaker 4: year up to March twenty twenty three. That's according to

20
00:01:07,959 --> 00:01:11,600
Speaker 4: the latest data from the ABS. It comes amid rapidly

21
00:01:11,720 --> 00:01:15,160
Speaker 4: rising inflation in the past twelve months, which has resulted

22
00:01:15,200 --> 00:01:18,720
Speaker 4: in the Reserve Bank increasing the cash rate to fight inflation.

23
00:01:19,400 --> 00:01:22,000
Speaker 4: The increase was lower than the seven point eight percent

24
00:01:22,080 --> 00:01:25,679
Speaker 4: annual rise recorded in December and seven point three percent

25
00:01:25,800 --> 00:01:26,600
Speaker 4: in September.

26
00:01:28,959 --> 00:01:31,520
Speaker 2: Speaking of Joe Biden, he will be making his first

27
00:01:31,600 --> 00:01:34,640
Speaker 2: visit to Australia as president next month when he travels

28
00:01:34,640 --> 00:01:37,199
Speaker 2: to Sydney to take part in the Quad Leader's Summit.

29
00:01:37,680 --> 00:01:40,679
Speaker 2: Prime Minister Anthony Aberneze announced on Wednesday that the Leader's

30
00:01:40,680 --> 00:01:43,280
Speaker 2: meeting will take place at the Sydney Opera House and

31
00:01:43,319 --> 00:01:46,080
Speaker 2: it will include leaders from Japan and India as well.

32
00:01:46,480 --> 00:01:48,840
Speaker 2: It will be the first time that Australia has hosted

33
00:01:48,880 --> 00:01:49,279
Speaker 2: the event.

34
00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:54,639
Speaker 4: Former New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda A. Dern will embark

35
00:01:54,760 --> 00:01:59,480
Speaker 4: on multiple fellowships at Harvard University. Adern resigned as PM

36
00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:03,440
Speaker 4: in Jaisury after holding the position for five years. She'll

37
00:02:03,440 --> 00:02:06,720
Speaker 4: study ways to address the rise of online extremist content,

38
00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:10,000
Speaker 4: as well as how AI and algorithms should be governed.

39
00:02:10,440 --> 00:02:12,960
Speaker 4: In addition to her studies, Adan will also lecture on

40
00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:16,240
Speaker 4: building leadership skills and said the opportunity would allow her

41
00:02:16,280 --> 00:02:19,360
Speaker 4: to share her experiences and give her an opportunity to learn.

42
00:02:21,360 --> 00:02:24,200
Speaker 2: And today's good news, a Barbie doll with Down syndrome

43
00:02:24,240 --> 00:02:27,639
Speaker 2: has been released, featuring address with colours associated with Down

44
00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:30,760
Speaker 2: syndrome awareness, as well as a shorter frame and longer

45
00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:34,079
Speaker 2: torso to be more illustrative of women with Down syndrome.

46
00:02:34,520 --> 00:02:37,040
Speaker 2: The team behind Barbie worked with the US National Down

47
00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:41,120
Speaker 2: Syndrome Society, with NDSS president Candy Pickered saying it represented

48
00:02:41,240 --> 00:02:43,400
Speaker 2: a huge step forward for inclusion.

49
00:02:46,560 --> 00:02:49,239
Speaker 3: When I ran for president four years ago, I said,

50
00:02:49,280 --> 00:02:51,760
Speaker 3: we're in a battle for the soul of America, and

51
00:02:51,840 --> 00:02:52,520
Speaker 3: we still are.

52
00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:57,320
Speaker 2: After much speculation, Joe Biden has made it official. He's

53
00:02:57,360 --> 00:03:00,880
Speaker 2: announced his bid for a second consecutive term as US

54
00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:04,440
Speaker 2: President the head of the November twenty twenty four election.

55
00:03:05,080 --> 00:03:06,440
Speaker 3: That's why I'm running for reelection.

56
00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:09,840
Speaker 2: We also know that Donald Trump has thrown his hat

57
00:03:09,840 --> 00:03:10,400
Speaker 2: in the ring.

58
00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:13,320
Speaker 5: In order to make America great and glorious again. I

59
00:03:13,360 --> 00:03:17,920
Speaker 5: am tonight announcing my candidacy for President of the United States.

60
00:03:19,320 --> 00:03:22,040
Speaker 2: But despite how much time is left before Americans go

61
00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:24,720
Speaker 2: to the polls, there are a few hurdles in front

62
00:03:24,760 --> 00:03:27,800
Speaker 2: of both these politicians before we get to that election.

63
00:03:28,480 --> 00:03:33,120
Speaker 4: Sam, for people like me who just don't really understand

64
00:03:33,200 --> 00:03:36,200
Speaker 4: the mechanisms of how politics work in the US, can

65
00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:40,760
Speaker 4: you give me the laydown of how presidential terms actually work.

66
00:03:40,920 --> 00:03:43,440
Speaker 2: Well, I think the first presumption you've made their, Nina,

67
00:03:43,480 --> 00:03:46,080
Speaker 2: is that politics does work in the United States. It

68
00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:49,000
Speaker 2: doesn't always work as well as it should. But I

69
00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:50,600
Speaker 2: can take you through a little bit of how the

70
00:03:50,600 --> 00:03:52,119
Speaker 2: presidential terms work.

71
00:03:52,200 --> 00:03:52,760
Speaker 4: Yeah, thank you.

72
00:03:52,840 --> 00:03:55,800
Speaker 2: So US presidents serve a four year term, and at

73
00:03:55,800 --> 00:03:57,440
Speaker 2: the end of the four year term they need to

74
00:03:57,480 --> 00:04:01,200
Speaker 2: win another election to serve again. But whatever happens, they

75
00:04:01,200 --> 00:04:04,720
Speaker 2: can't serve more than two combined terms. So in recent history,

76
00:04:04,760 --> 00:04:08,280
Speaker 2: President Obama served two terms, President Bush serve two terms.

77
00:04:08,360 --> 00:04:10,920
Speaker 2: They couldn't go for a third term. So Biden has

78
00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:13,640
Speaker 2: been a US president since twenty twenty one, after he

79
00:04:13,760 --> 00:04:16,720
Speaker 2: beat then President Donald Trump of the Republican Party in

80
00:04:16,760 --> 00:04:17,800
Speaker 2: the twenty twenty election.

81
00:04:18,040 --> 00:04:20,240
Speaker 4: So if Biden got elected again, that would be his

82
00:04:20,279 --> 00:04:20,960
Speaker 4: final term.

83
00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:22,400
Speaker 2: That'd be it for him exactly.

84
00:04:22,720 --> 00:04:24,680
Speaker 4: And you've said that there are hurdles in the way

85
00:04:24,680 --> 00:04:27,800
Speaker 4: of both Trump and Biden still to even qualify to

86
00:04:28,240 --> 00:04:31,640
Speaker 4: run as candidates. So what do Trump and Biden have

87
00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:33,760
Speaker 4: to do to guarantee they will be candidates.

88
00:04:34,360 --> 00:04:37,400
Speaker 2: Well, as I said, it's a really long process, and

89
00:04:37,480 --> 00:04:40,320
Speaker 2: when a candidate announced their intention to run for president,

90
00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:43,480
Speaker 2: that's kind of the first step of this process, which

91
00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:45,880
Speaker 2: is where we're at now with both Trump and Biden.

92
00:04:46,160 --> 00:04:49,120
Speaker 2: But before those two candidates can be the official Democratic

93
00:04:49,160 --> 00:04:52,240
Speaker 2: and Republican candidates, they need to be formally selected by

94
00:04:52,279 --> 00:04:55,480
Speaker 2: their parties. So the Democrats for Biden and the Republicans

95
00:04:55,480 --> 00:04:59,279
Speaker 2: for Trump, and there are already some alternative candidates to

96
00:04:59,400 --> 00:05:01,880
Speaker 2: Biden and Trump who have also thrown their hat in

97
00:05:01,920 --> 00:05:04,920
Speaker 2: the ring, but the current and former president are currently

98
00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:09,320
Speaker 2: the headliners, and so what happens from here is a long,

99
00:05:09,480 --> 00:05:14,240
Speaker 2: complicated process of state based primaries and caucuses. They work

100
00:05:14,279 --> 00:05:16,560
Speaker 2: a bit differently, but their purpose is the same.

101
00:05:16,720 --> 00:05:18,800
Speaker 4: So the primaries and caucuses work a bit differently to

102
00:05:18,839 --> 00:05:19,400
Speaker 4: each other.

103
00:05:19,279 --> 00:05:23,400
Speaker 2: Exactly, even between the two parties, there's variations in what happens,

104
00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:26,320
Speaker 2: but basically what you need to know is its internal

105
00:05:26,360 --> 00:05:29,880
Speaker 2: processes to get to a certainty of who the candidate

106
00:05:29,960 --> 00:05:32,400
Speaker 2: is going to be to represent their party and run

107
00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:32,880
Speaker 2: for president.

108
00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:35,919
Speaker 4: So they're whittling down the possibilities and saying this is

109
00:05:35,920 --> 00:05:38,320
Speaker 4: who will represent us at the election exactly.

110
00:05:38,360 --> 00:05:39,800
Speaker 2: So you and I could throw our hat in the

111
00:05:39,880 --> 00:05:43,000
Speaker 2: ring if we were members of the Democrat or Republican party,

112
00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:45,960
Speaker 2: and we would be and US citizens, and we would

113
00:05:45,960 --> 00:05:48,840
Speaker 2: be whittled out by that point. And so that all

114
00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:52,200
Speaker 2: kicks off in January of next year. So we're going

115
00:05:52,279 --> 00:05:54,600
Speaker 2: to hear a lot more about all the running candidates

116
00:05:54,600 --> 00:05:57,560
Speaker 2: and their platforms before then, and then all of that

117
00:05:57,600 --> 00:06:01,080
Speaker 2: culminates in the party convention, So that happens in the

118
00:06:01,120 --> 00:06:03,360
Speaker 2: middle of next year, and the Republicans have one and

119
00:06:03,400 --> 00:06:06,080
Speaker 2: the Democrats have another. And that's when all the different

120
00:06:06,120 --> 00:06:08,839
Speaker 2: groups from all the fifty states get together and literally

121
00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:10,960
Speaker 2: put their hands up to vote for who will be

122
00:06:11,400 --> 00:06:12,599
Speaker 2: their presidential candidate.

123
00:06:12,880 --> 00:06:15,080
Speaker 4: Okay, And so at that point Trump and Biden will

124
00:06:15,120 --> 00:06:17,200
Speaker 4: either be chosen or they won't and will have to

125
00:06:17,360 --> 00:06:21,960
Speaker 4: wait and see what happens in the meantime. What are

126
00:06:21,960 --> 00:06:24,640
Speaker 4: the key issues they're both campaigning for. And I suppose

127
00:06:24,640 --> 00:06:26,640
Speaker 4: at this point they're not just campaigning to the whole

128
00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:29,599
Speaker 4: of the United States, they're also campaigning to their parties

129
00:06:29,880 --> 00:06:30,240
Speaker 4: very much.

130
00:06:30,279 --> 00:06:33,080
Speaker 2: So I'd say even their parties are probably the priority

131
00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:35,600
Speaker 2: right now. Why don't we start with Biden and what

132
00:06:35,640 --> 00:06:38,920
Speaker 2: we've heard from him so far. So he released this

133
00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:41,839
Speaker 2: video on Tuesday Night, Our Time, and one of the

134
00:06:41,880 --> 00:06:45,840
Speaker 2: big focuses for Biden in that campaign reelection video was

135
00:06:45,880 --> 00:06:47,279
Speaker 2: this idea of personal freedoms.

136
00:06:47,480 --> 00:06:49,800
Speaker 3: The question for fashion is whether in the years ahead

137
00:06:50,320 --> 00:06:54,160
Speaker 3: we have more freedom or less freedom, more rights or fewer.

138
00:06:54,760 --> 00:06:57,919
Speaker 2: And he said that the Make America Great Again extremists

139
00:06:57,920 --> 00:07:03,640
Speaker 2: are targeting abortion rights, social secure and LGBTQI plus rights. Now,

140
00:07:03,640 --> 00:07:06,400
Speaker 2: he didn't mention it explicitly, but the video does also

141
00:07:06,440 --> 00:07:10,160
Speaker 2: feature footage of the January sixth riots. There's also this

142
00:07:10,280 --> 00:07:13,400
Speaker 2: sense that Biden's asking for another chance. He says, let's

143
00:07:13,400 --> 00:07:17,760
Speaker 2: finish the job. And I think that's a subtle acknowledgment

144
00:07:17,840 --> 00:07:20,880
Speaker 2: that Joe Biden hasn't achieved everything he's wanted to achieve

145
00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:24,400
Speaker 2: in his first four years as president, and what he's

146
00:07:24,440 --> 00:07:27,080
Speaker 2: asking for is more time to finish the job. One

147
00:07:27,120 --> 00:07:30,400
Speaker 2: of the areas I think that Biden thinks he's underperformed

148
00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:32,520
Speaker 2: is in gun reform. He set out to do a

149
00:07:32,520 --> 00:07:35,520
Speaker 2: lot more in restricting who could own a gun and

150
00:07:35,560 --> 00:07:36,760
Speaker 2: how easy it was to get one.

151
00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:39,880
Speaker 4: Okay, So that's what Biden is campaigning on so far,

152
00:07:40,520 --> 00:07:42,280
Speaker 4: he's got a while ahead of him. It could change.

153
00:07:42,280 --> 00:07:44,600
Speaker 4: I'm sure it will. What's Trump saying at the moment.

154
00:07:44,720 --> 00:07:48,160
Speaker 2: We're hearing trademark Trump at the moment, and he's really

155
00:07:48,160 --> 00:07:50,560
Speaker 2: going hard on this point that his time in office

156
00:07:50,880 --> 00:07:52,760
Speaker 2: was the golden age of the US.

157
00:07:53,120 --> 00:07:57,280
Speaker 6: Our nation was at the pinnacle of power, prosperity, and prestige,

158
00:07:57,960 --> 00:08:02,520
Speaker 6: towering above all rivals, wishing all enemies, and striding into

159
00:08:02,560 --> 00:08:05,520
Speaker 6: the future confident and so strong.

160
00:08:05,920 --> 00:08:08,760
Speaker 2: And according to Trump, all of that finished when he

161
00:08:08,840 --> 00:08:10,240
Speaker 2: lost and Joe Biden took over.

162
00:08:10,480 --> 00:08:14,240
Speaker 5: The past two years under Joe Biden had been a

163
00:08:14,320 --> 00:08:17,600
Speaker 5: time of pain, hardship, anxiety, and despair.

164
00:08:17,880 --> 00:08:21,880
Speaker 4: So we've established what both potential candidates platforms are shaping

165
00:08:21,960 --> 00:08:24,720
Speaker 4: up to be, what challenges lay ahead. Why don't we

166
00:08:24,720 --> 00:08:25,400
Speaker 4: start with Biden?

167
00:08:25,520 --> 00:08:27,880
Speaker 2: Well, I think Joe Biden's biggest challenge is something he

168
00:08:27,920 --> 00:08:31,720
Speaker 2: can't control, which is how old he is. And if

169
00:08:31,720 --> 00:08:33,800
Speaker 2: you think about it like this, he'll be eighty six

170
00:08:33,920 --> 00:08:37,359
Speaker 2: years old by the time he finishes a potential second term.

171
00:08:37,880 --> 00:08:39,640
Speaker 2: And that seems to be on the mind of a

172
00:08:39,679 --> 00:08:43,040
Speaker 2: lot of Americans. According to a recent NBC News poll,

173
00:08:43,400 --> 00:08:46,880
Speaker 2: seventy percent of Americans and fifty one percent of Democrats

174
00:08:47,160 --> 00:08:50,440
Speaker 2: think he shouldn't seek reelection, and a major concern for

175
00:08:50,520 --> 00:08:53,080
Speaker 2: about fifty percent of those who want him to stand

176
00:08:53,160 --> 00:08:54,640
Speaker 2: aside is his age.

177
00:08:54,760 --> 00:08:58,120
Speaker 4: But Joe Biden is currently eighty years old and Trump

178
00:08:58,240 --> 00:09:00,680
Speaker 4: seventy six. So I find it interesting that actually not

179
00:09:00,960 --> 00:09:03,160
Speaker 4: that much of an age gap between the two.

180
00:09:03,360 --> 00:09:06,240
Speaker 2: I think you're right, and whoever wins the presidential race,

181
00:09:06,320 --> 00:09:08,400
Speaker 2: if the two of them are the nominees, will be

182
00:09:08,440 --> 00:09:11,559
Speaker 2: an old president. I think where things are different is

183
00:09:11,600 --> 00:09:13,960
Speaker 2: the way in which Donald Trump and the Republicans have

184
00:09:14,080 --> 00:09:17,719
Speaker 2: painted Joe Biden's age. Whenever Joe Biden makes any sort

185
00:09:17,720 --> 00:09:21,040
Speaker 2: of slip up, the Republicans and particularly Donald Trump, really

186
00:09:21,160 --> 00:09:25,000
Speaker 2: jump on it as an example of his diminishing cognitive ability.

187
00:09:25,480 --> 00:09:27,559
Speaker 2: And I expect that to remain as a core pillar

188
00:09:27,600 --> 00:09:31,000
Speaker 2: of their criticisms of the current president going into next

189
00:09:31,040 --> 00:09:33,800
Speaker 2: year's election. Now, in saying all of that, Joe Biden

190
00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:37,520
Speaker 2: is still seen more favorably than Trump. Thirty eight percent

191
00:09:37,520 --> 00:09:40,440
Speaker 2: of Americans view Biden in a positive light. For Donald Trump,

192
00:09:40,440 --> 00:09:43,880
Speaker 2: it's thirty four percent, and forty eight percent of Americans

193
00:09:44,040 --> 00:09:46,920
Speaker 2: view Joe Biden in a negative light. Now for Donald Trump,

194
00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:50,400
Speaker 2: that's fifty four percent. So it's clear that more Americans

195
00:09:50,440 --> 00:09:53,679
Speaker 2: want Biden right now than they do Trump. Now, some

196
00:09:53,800 --> 00:09:56,320
Speaker 2: big news for Biden just in the last twenty four

197
00:09:56,320 --> 00:09:59,240
Speaker 2: hours or so, right after his announcement, former President Barack

198
00:09:59,320 --> 00:10:01,600
Speaker 2: Obama in I saw it in the form of an

199
00:10:01,600 --> 00:10:04,640
Speaker 2: Instagram post, and that to me tells me that the

200
00:10:04,640 --> 00:10:08,480
Speaker 2: Democratic establishment and some key performers in the Democrats are

201
00:10:08,480 --> 00:10:09,840
Speaker 2: getting behind the current president.

202
00:10:10,000 --> 00:10:12,920
Speaker 4: Before we talk about the reverse for Trump and whether

203
00:10:13,040 --> 00:10:15,360
Speaker 4: Republicans are getting behind him, what are some of the

204
00:10:15,440 --> 00:10:16,559
Speaker 4: challenges he's facing.

205
00:10:16,800 --> 00:10:20,040
Speaker 2: Well, we've spoken many, many times on this podcast about

206
00:10:20,080 --> 00:10:23,280
Speaker 2: some of the criminal investigations Trump is facing at present,

207
00:10:23,440 --> 00:10:25,320
Speaker 2: and I'll throw a link into the show notes of

208
00:10:25,360 --> 00:10:27,240
Speaker 2: one we did just a couple of weeks ago on

209
00:10:27,360 --> 00:10:31,280
Speaker 2: criminal charges Trump is facing over the falsification of business records,

210
00:10:31,760 --> 00:10:34,880
Speaker 2: But there are many other proceedings underway. The one I

211
00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:36,880
Speaker 2: did want to call out, though, is the one over

212
00:10:36,920 --> 00:10:41,040
Speaker 2: the January sixth insurrection, because the consequences of that trial

213
00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:44,800
Speaker 2: are really the only consequences that could actually rule him

214
00:10:44,800 --> 00:10:46,959
Speaker 2: out of the presidential race, and that's because of a

215
00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:50,280
Speaker 2: constitutional amendment that says that you can't run for president

216
00:10:50,679 --> 00:10:53,600
Speaker 2: if you have attempted to overthrow the government in the past.

217
00:10:54,120 --> 00:10:57,560
Speaker 2: But there are other criminal investigations. There's one about Trump's

218
00:10:57,600 --> 00:11:02,880
Speaker 2: handling of sensitive government documents. Is investigating the Trump Organization's finances.

219
00:11:03,200 --> 00:11:06,079
Speaker 2: There's another one over political interference in the twenty twenty

220
00:11:06,120 --> 00:11:09,120
Speaker 2: presidential election, and more recently, a case has been brought

221
00:11:09,200 --> 00:11:13,440
Speaker 2: over an alleged rape, which Trump denies. Now it seems

222
00:11:13,440 --> 00:11:17,000
Speaker 2: that despite all of those cases happening in the background,

223
00:11:17,400 --> 00:11:20,960
Speaker 2: he still does have enough support within the Republican Party

224
00:11:21,200 --> 00:11:23,760
Speaker 2: to at least make this bid for the presidency viable

225
00:11:24,080 --> 00:11:27,000
Speaker 2: for now. The other interesting thing that's happened, you know,

226
00:11:27,080 --> 00:11:29,400
Speaker 2: is that he's attracting a lot of financial support. He's

227
00:11:29,400 --> 00:11:32,560
Speaker 2: getting a lot of donations the ABC we were reporting

228
00:11:32,640 --> 00:11:35,240
Speaker 2: last week that Donald Trump has raised more than thirty

229
00:11:35,280 --> 00:11:39,199
Speaker 2: four million US dollars since the start of this year alone,

230
00:11:39,559 --> 00:11:42,800
Speaker 2: and it seems that controversy over felony charges has only

231
00:11:43,040 --> 00:11:44,760
Speaker 2: increased that financial support.

232
00:11:45,000 --> 00:11:47,160
Speaker 4: He just takes all the publicity and makes it work

233
00:11:47,200 --> 00:11:47,560
Speaker 4: for him.

234
00:11:47,760 --> 00:11:49,440
Speaker 2: He even came out last week with the line of

235
00:11:49,520 --> 00:11:52,679
Speaker 2: NFTs that have now sold out. So he's clearly popular

236
00:11:52,720 --> 00:11:55,000
Speaker 2: amongst his base. And now we have to see whether

237
00:11:55,040 --> 00:11:58,080
Speaker 2: that translates into a endorsement by the party.

238
00:11:58,559 --> 00:12:02,240
Speaker 4: Sam. Let's say Trump and Biden are both selected by

239
00:12:02,280 --> 00:12:06,360
Speaker 4: their respective parties as presidential nominees. Can you make a

240
00:12:06,400 --> 00:12:08,559
Speaker 4: prediction as to who you think will win.

241
00:12:09,120 --> 00:12:10,960
Speaker 2: I'm not going to do that because it is so

242
00:12:11,120 --> 00:12:15,280
Speaker 2: long until the election. But what I think is we

243
00:12:15,320 --> 00:12:17,960
Speaker 2: need to watch that gap of the approval ratings. At

244
00:12:17,960 --> 00:12:21,120
Speaker 2: the moment, it's four points. That's not very big, and

245
00:12:21,200 --> 00:12:23,640
Speaker 2: for Donald Trump, Pete really doesn't have to do that

246
00:12:23,800 --> 00:12:28,160
Speaker 2: much to make up that ground. If they continue to

247
00:12:28,240 --> 00:12:31,640
Speaker 2: criticize Joe Biden's age, I think that will be a

248
00:12:31,760 --> 00:12:34,280
Speaker 2: key concern for a lot of Americans, and for many

249
00:12:34,360 --> 00:12:37,040
Speaker 2: voters it might be a case of the least worst

250
00:12:37,160 --> 00:12:39,360
Speaker 2: candidate come November twenty twenty four.

251
