00:18:45.000Because if you look at the details of the deal, and we're gonna look at all the details, we'll talk about the situation on the ground and what's been said, the deal that has been proposed reduces the amount of American troops in Afghanistan from 14,000 to between 8,000 and 9,000.
00:19:00.000Which, in the grand scheme of things, 8,000 to 9,000 troops is not a lot.
00:19:07.000Relatively speaking, 14,000 troops is not a lot, because we had 100,000 troops in Afghanistan at the height of the war in the mid to late 2000s.
00:19:17.000However, if people have been paying attention to this issue, there were about 7,000 troops in Afghanistan when President Trump took office.
00:19:26.000So they're calling this the end of the Afghanistan war.
00:19:29.000We're putting together a deal that will end the war in Afghanistan.
00:19:33.000But all it does is reduce the amount of troops to levels a little bit above the levels of troops that were there two to three years ago.
00:19:42.000Because, you know, again you got to remember President Trump, when he came into office,
00:19:47.000He did a big troop surge in Afghanistan to bring an end to the war, to expeditiously finish the job against the Taliban.
00:20:10.000Unironically, some of the best news we've seen on the show in a while because it's been a lot of black pills lately on immigration, this Afghanistan thing gonna have to rain on your parade a little bit, but new tariffs against China.
00:20:23.000President Trump tweeted today in a series of four tweets that he is looking at putting an additional 10% on $300 billion worth of Chinese imports on September 1st.
00:20:35.000So if this goes through and if we do the tariffs on the remaining goods, all goods coming from China will be subject to some amount of tariffs.
00:20:46.000At something like 300 billion dollars, something like that, which has a 25% tariff on it, the remaining amount of, the remaining volume of trade that we do with China will then be subject to a 10% tariff, and the president says that we could increase that to 25% eventually if the Chinese don't make a deal with us on trade.
00:21:30.000If you've been watching the show, you know Darren Beatty.
00:21:32.000He was a former White House speechwriter.
00:21:36.000And he was fired because CNN called the White House to do a story about how Darren Beatty attended the HL Mencken conference some years ago, and the HL Mencken conference had previously hosted people like Richard Spencer, Peter Brimelow, among others, who are apparently so controversial that
00:21:53.000Darren Beatty's mere presence at the same conference they spoke at years before he attended, in spite of the actual substance of his speech that he gave, was enough for him to be implicated and to be guilty by associations.
00:22:09.000He recently gave a great speech at this symposium.
00:22:12.000Where they I think where they were giving speeches for the privately funded border wall Steve Bannon was there But so he actually uncovered about this ASAP Rocky case just a little background on who he is That if you go back to 2018, there's a song by ASAP Rocky where he says that he basically wants to assassinate the president
00:22:31.000He says President Trump is an a-hole, F him, and I hope he gets assassinated like JFK.
00:22:38.000And of course this is relevant because if you're not familiar with the situation, A$AP Rocky is a black rapper who is currently being held in Sweden on trial for assault.
00:22:48.000And President Trump has been jumping through all these different hoops tweeting this weekend he sent the top hostage negotiator from the United States State Department over to negotiate the release of ASAP Rocky and so while all of this is happening and by the way I might add while all the Turning Point USA alt-light shills are changing their handles to
00:23:10.000ASAP, faggot Will Chamberlain, ASAP, Jewish shill, Jack Posobiec, you know, all the mogavites are out there, the president included, shilling for the release of this black rapper in order to curry favor with black voters, and surprise, surprise, we have yet another ingrate!
00:25:10.000It's all gonna work out, because in two to three days, I'll have enough scruff on the
00:25:16.000Cheeks and the chin area the beard region that I think it's I'm really gonna be able to pull it off You know the mustache by itself.
00:25:23.000It's controversial It's it's a striking sort of bold statement, but once the rest fills in I think you're gonna understand my vision here So that's going well hair was cut mustache was trimmed the beard is coming in.
00:25:35.000I went to the doctor today I know people were pleading with me
00:25:39.000There's somebody out there who watches this show who is convinced that I have a collapsed lung because of symptoms I've described previously on this show, this week and last week.
00:25:49.000I've been complaining about a pain on my side, in my upper back left side region, and this person has emailed me multiple times, commented on the video, replied to my tweets.
00:26:01.000He actually contacted Miley Yiannopoulos.
00:26:03.000Miley Yiannopoulos sends me an email and says, oh, somebody wants me to pass this message along.
00:26:08.000He thinks you- he is so convinced he's 99% sure you have a collapsed lung and you need to get to the emergency room immediately!
00:26:14.000And I guess it's like, you know, that's good intentions, right?
00:26:20.000I mean, I'm sure he's concerned about my health, wants me to be alive, wants me to be healthy, but it's like, bro, I told you.
00:27:25.000And not everybody is going to be on board with what we say on the show.
00:27:29.000So I'm thinking to myself, oh boy, you know, now this doctor is not going to take care of me.
00:27:35.000You know, now I can imagine next time I go, he's going to be, it's like that episode of Seinfeld with the dentist when
00:27:40.000He finds out Jerry made a bad joke about dentists, and he's gonna... So next time I go to the doctor, he's gonna say, I'm treating this racist, white nationalist, fascist, and so, you know what?
00:27:52.000You know, I'm gonna poke him a bunch of times when I take blood, and you know, we're just gonna do extremely painful things.
00:27:57.000I'm gonna smash his kneecap with the thing, you know, when they're doing the reflexes.
00:28:01.000So if he's watching, I hope he's cool.
00:28:14.000And that's what I'm going to talk about.
00:28:16.000So I guess we'll start with this ASAP Rocky story because to me, I mean, this is just so funny and so typical.
00:28:22.000It just vindicates everything I say on this show.
00:28:25.000You know, sometimes I think to myself, because I'm sort of ostracized from society, people are unfriendly and unkind to me because of the views that I hold.
00:28:34.000And sometimes I think to myself, you know, am I...
00:28:37.000Am I just some negative, nasty, prejudiced person?
00:28:41.000You might think all of that may well be true while I'm also correct about my political opinions, but I think, you know, do I just have this hateful, cynical worldview?
00:28:50.000Should we just be embracing equality and all this?
00:28:54.000And then we see stories such as this one with A$AP Rocky and I realize, nope, nothing surprises me anymore.
00:30:03.000The 30-year-old rapper pleaded not guilty to charges of assault on Tuesday, saying that he acted in self-defense.
00:30:10.000Trump has involved himself in Rocky's case, saying earlier this month that he spoke with Sweden's Prime Minister about securing his release.
00:30:17.000And so the President has been tweeting about this.
00:30:20.000According to this report, he has sent the top hostage negotiator in America to monitor the court case.
00:30:26.000You've got all the president's biggest supporters, like I said, all these alt-right cucks, Jack Posobiec, Will Chamberlain, who's the meme smith, Count Dankula, Count Donkula,
00:30:56.000I'm not totally sure, but Darren Beatty uncovers this, that actually ASAP Rocky is not a fan of the president or his supporters.
00:31:18.000Darren Beatty tweeted out the other day, quote, ASAP Rocky essentially calls for the assassination of President Trump in the lyrics to 2018 song Guns and Butter.
00:31:27.000The lyrics says, so get off my YKK, the President and A-hole, F off.
00:31:33.000Prayin' for a JFK, all we got was KKK.
00:31:37.000So in other words, he's saying the President is an asshole, F him, he is the KKK, and we're praying for him to get assassinated just like John F. Kennedy did.
00:31:47.000interpreting the lyrics here and some people have said well actually some people are you know really trying to stretch this saying well actually maybe he literally meant he's praying for a president like JFK it's like even if that were the case he's still saying the president is an a-hole f him and he's a racist not kind words and again this is a reminder
00:32:08.000How many times do we have to see this?
00:32:11.000I mean remember folks, remember, why do we owe anybody anything?
00:32:16.000Specifically in this situation, but also we can extrapolate it to a bit of a larger situation.
00:32:22.000Why is the president intervening in this case?
00:32:25.000I see some MAGApied people saying, you know, well this just goes to show that the president is defending people even if they don't like him.
00:32:36.000The whole system is trying to subvert and destroy this administration.
00:32:42.000The whole system destroys and annihilates anybody that opposes it.
00:32:47.000Do you think that if Hillary Clinton were president, that, for example, if Jared Taylor went to Switzerland like he did earlier this year and he was detained for some reason, put in jail or something, do you think Hillary Clinton would be working to expedite his release and return to America?
00:33:02.000You think that President Hillary Clinton would be sending the top hostage negotiator to release Jared Taylor from jail?
00:33:08.000You think that would happen if Richard Spencer got arrested like he did, I think, in Hungary or one of these Eastern European countries?
00:33:31.000All we do is help people that want to kill us, and mark my words, watch.
00:33:35.000If ASAP Rocky is released expeditiously because of the President, or he's released after the conclusion of the trial, mark my words, he will come back to America, and I don't think
00:33:51.000I was prejudiced against white people.
00:33:54.000I guarantee you he will say something like, yeah, well, that's great, but she and I don't... I still hate that MF-er, you know, something like that.
00:34:02.000Because the exact same situation happened in China.
00:34:42.000And I think we're beginning to see a pattern here, which is that, you know, maybe it's not even so much Republicans, or this administration, but perhaps we can extrapolate it out to some larger concentric circles here, and perhaps it's white people as a whole, in our historical country that we founded, that we settled, that we built,
00:35:02.000We have this nice place and I think we're pretty considerate.
00:35:05.000I think we're pretty benevolent of minorities, of other people, new arrivals, people that are not really the inheritors of the Western legacy, you know, and I think it's basically the same principle.
00:35:53.000And we think that if they come here and take our free stuff and stay in our houses and work in our businesses and drive on our roads and occupy our schools and our hospitals and all the rest, that there is going to be this
00:36:06.000There's going to be this attitude that says, thank you Whitey, thank you America for helping us out, for getting us out of a bad situation, but I think we will find, we're finding it now, I think we will find increasingly in the next so many decades that the attitude will be a lot more like LeVar, what is the name again?
00:36:24.000That basketball player's father's attitude, which is ingratitude and hostility.
00:36:54.000I mean, this is not Game Changers, but of course it's pretty symbolic.
00:36:57.000We've been on this subject for a couple of weeks now, talking about cities like Baltimore, Detroit, the things that are going on, and how what really has to happen is a raising of the consciousness.
00:37:08.000What really must take place in the country for us to maybe mitigate the damage that is inevitable from diversity, from demographic change, from multiculturalism, is a team spirit.
00:37:21.000You know, we need people to be thinking on a team mentality.
00:37:25.000We want people to be good sports and good teammates and we know what that team has to be because everybody else is thinking in this way.
00:37:33.000Everybody else is being a team player for their team
00:37:37.000And maybe it's time for the historic American nation.
00:37:39.000This is what paleoconservatives believe in.
00:37:42.000A nation united, not by ideology, but by experience, by history, by culture, and perhaps importantly, by blood.
00:37:52.000And that's the kind of team thinking that we're going to need, the kind of team playing, team sportsmanship, because this kind of stuff is not sustainable.
00:38:00.000We keep, you know, the old analogy, if we're playing a sport contest, you know, a game, something like this, if we're playing a soccer game, and we as a team are passing to the other team, and they're only passing among themselves, who's going to win in the end, right?
00:39:12.000My friend President Xi said he would stop the sale of fentanyl to the United States.
00:39:16.000This never happened and many Americans continue to die.
00:39:20.000Trade talks are continuing and during the talks the U.S.
00:39:22.000will start on September 1st, putting a small additional 10% on the remaining $300 billion of goods and products coming from China into our country.
00:39:32.000This does not include the $250 billion already tariffed at 25%.
00:39:37.000We look forward to continuing our positive dialogue with China on a comprehensive trade deal and feel that the future between our two countries will be a very bright one.
00:39:46.000And then in BBC it says, in later remarks the president told reporters that the 10% tariff was a short-term measure and that tariffs could be lifted further in stages to more than 25%.
00:39:58.000So this is a pretty big white pill in my mind.
00:40:01.000I have to say we've been critical towards the president on a lot of issues, on a lot of things.
00:40:07.000On immigration of course, on foreign policy which we're about to talk about, on tech censorship, on the political targeting of his supporters and right-wing people.
00:40:16.000We saw another Latino MAGA supporter who got his butt kicked
00:40:20.000Some place totally bruised, swollen face.
00:40:23.000You know, so it's generally been disappointing in the way of concrete progress on policy from the legislature or the executive branch.
00:40:31.000But this is the one area where things are going exceptionally well, which is trade.
00:40:35.000This trade war with China is a blessing.
00:40:37.000And we're hearing the usual refrain from all the usual suspects, all the economists, all the free market minded people, people like Ben Shapiro among others.
00:40:48.000The usual refrain of course being that, well, tariffs are bad for the economy because all these costs are passed on to the consumer.
00:40:58.000The only way to regard a tariff is as a tax, an additional tax passed on to the consumer.
00:41:04.000And we know that's BS, because we've had tariffs on China basically since the President got inaugurated.
00:41:10.000The first round of tariffs, I believe, was June 2017 or June 2018.
00:41:19.000And we found that we continue to have below 4% unemployment, above 3% GDP growth, the stock market is at all-time highs, and even studies have shown that basically corporations and China have eaten the costs of the tariffs.
00:41:34.000If you look at what China has been doing over the past so many months, they've been rapidly stimulating their economy to keep their businesses afloat, and basically
00:41:41.000None of the costs have been passed on to the consumer.
00:41:43.000Perhaps marginally, but nothing really significant because none of the key economic indicators are reflecting that.
00:42:32.000I don't recall in the Constitution, I don't recall in the Bible a God-given right to buy from China, a God-given right to buy from an economic predator that manipulates currency, that has all these other hostile protectionist trade and economic policies.
00:43:48.000They're making a big framework for real structural change on trade.
00:43:53.000And then it got to be, I think it was March or April when the Chinese, they had this draft agreement and they changed basically every single provision and canceled all the concessions they were going to make.
00:44:03.000Should we have no trade barriers between America and China?
00:44:22.000So people are talking about, well China's gonna have to open up their markets, or they'll have to get rid of some of these things they do with intellectual property, or they bring in factories and learn American factory know-how, and then they just start their own factories and things like this.
00:44:41.000That's going to oversee and enforce this agreement.
00:44:44.000We could very well have a situation where the tariffs get taken down, China plays ball for a little while, and then they decide one day all the trade barriers and non-tariff barriers go right back into effect just like they were before the deal.
00:44:57.000So honestly, putting all these tariffs on Chinese goods, it's destroying their economy, it's helping our economy.
00:45:29.000So, I hope that the President is not going to do the same thing that he did with Mexico, where it's merely a threat.
00:45:34.000You know, because of Mexico, he said, well, we're going to put terrorists on Mexico, on everything, at 10%, and it'll go up to 25% in stages, just like his threat on China today.
00:45:44.000And we never got any tariffs at all because Mexico ended up coming to the table and making a deal securing their southern border.
00:45:52.000They implemented something resembling a third safe country agreement not quite as good but something like that and the illegal crossings have been reduced as a result of that.
00:46:00.000But I really hope that the president just sees the tariffs through and does just put tariffs on all their goods and does just wreck their economy.
00:46:07.000And you know maybe in the future we could reach some kind of settlement where the
00:46:11.000The tariffs are reduced in exchange for concessions or something like this.
00:46:15.000But honestly, I don't see anything wrong with having tariffs.
00:46:19.000If this was the pretext needed to erect a tariff regime, a trade barrier regime, to protect American industry, to protect American jobs, to stop the predatory practices by these other countries, then good!
00:46:36.000Go from, I think they have it projected at something like 6.1% for this quarter, and watch it drop to 5% and 4% and even get below our growth rate.
00:46:45.000And then China never overtakes us economically, and we don't have to worry about them, right?
00:46:49.000We don't have to worry about them to the same extent, you know, as some of the alarmists say that we might have to.
00:46:55.000So I think the tariffs are good, and you know what?
00:46:57.000Put them on, keep them on, put on other trade barriers.
00:47:00.000We had Ian Fletcher come on the show, he wrote a book about
00:47:03.000How free trade is bad and what China is doing to our country.
00:47:12.000There's a lot of things you can do, but there's no reason that this trade war should end.
00:47:16.000You know, and this is maybe a good segue, the wars that should be permanent and forever and enduring and the ones we should be fighting are trade wars.
00:47:23.000That's where the carnage is happening against America.
00:47:25.000That's the existential threat to the American country and the American homeland.
00:47:57.000I think it was 2017 or early 2018 when the president basically said we are not going to target Huawei with tariffs and we're not there was some kind of rule or something where they said maybe it wasn't Huawei maybe was was it the Z phone or whatever something with the Z they basically said we're gonna take it easy on China with trade
00:48:18.000In 2018, because they were going to help us with North Korea.
00:48:21.000Of course, the big problem with North Korea is that they should not be able to sustain themselves.
00:48:26.000We have so much, we have so many tariffs on them, and they're so severe and so extreme, and by the way, all countries have extreme tariffs on North Korea, you know.
00:48:35.000Russia has tariffs on North Korea, I believe China has tariffs on North Korea, the Security Council put tariffs on North Korea, you know, so they should not be able to survive.
00:48:44.000The only reason they're able to sort of
00:48:47.000Stagger along and continue their nuclear program and resist the will of the United States is because China is their lifeline China continues to buy their coal China continues to support them and it's understandable You know North Korea is on China's border if North Korea imploded completely or if there was a war on the Korean Peninsula that would be catastrophic for China because of course you'd have a refugee crisis there would be a
00:49:12.000You know, a question of regional stability and security.
00:49:16.000So China's basically been the lifeline in North Korea, and that's why they were sort of incorporated into the deal.
00:49:21.000The president said, we are not going to target some of your telecommunications stuff, because that's really sort of the jugular for you, so long as you are going to take the North Korea threat as seriously as we are.
00:49:33.000So long as you're going to turn back North Korean coal, you're going to put full sanctions on them, you're going to allow us to starve them, basically,
00:49:42.000Well now we find they're not even doing that.
00:49:48.000North Korea fired an unidentified short-range projectile twice in the country's third weapons test today in just over a week.
00:49:57.000The launches happened in an area on the country's eastern coast early today.
00:50:01.000They are seen as a reaction to planned military exercises between South Korea and the U.S., which are due this month.
00:50:08.000Speaking at the White House, President Donald Trump said he was not worried with the recent launches as they were short-range missiles and, quote, very standard.
00:50:16.000And, you know, honestly, I think this is a good approach.
00:50:18.000You know, I said last week, and a lot of people freaked out at me, I said, you know, I'm getting kind of tired of being pushed around.
00:50:25.000By norks, and Iranians, and Venezuelans, all these people that won't just do what we say.
00:50:31.000You know, there is a little bit of boomer in me that says, we're the biggest and most powerful country in the world, how dare you defy us?
00:50:39.000You have a nuclear weapon, you're firing missiles when we told you not to?
00:50:43.000Do you know who you're messing with, you know?
00:50:45.000So, I do have a little bit of that in me where I say, why don't we just go and push their shit in?
00:51:38.000Military drills are going to continue.
00:51:39.000You can fire off as many short-range missiles as you want, but we're going to wait until you're ready to denuclearize irreversibly, permanently, verifiably, and completely, and all that.
00:51:51.000I think that's ultimately the right approach because, again, the calculus behind containment as opposed to regime change
00:52:20.000We're gonna choke you, make it so you can't feed yourself, and your economy gets destroyed, and we're just gonna make it so painful for your country that either your country will explode by itself without us touching you, or you're gonna come to the table and we will give you huge concessions, you know.
00:53:00.000And so the only problem is that when Iran shoots down our drone, those people are going to get a pretext.
00:53:06.000Those people are going to get some momentum that they might be able to lurch this administration into some kind of series of escalations and retaliatory actions that could lead to war, right?
00:53:19.000But I think that the president has been doing a very good job of things like the Iranian drone or the Iranian tankers, the Iranian
00:53:26.000Tankers or rather the Japanese and Norwegian tankers which we allege were blown up by Iran or the North Korean missile tests and sort of you know not losing face in the media responding just enough that it doesn't seem like America is weak or not credible but then going back to the policy of containment and taking this wait-and-see approach.
00:53:47.000Saying, you know, we're strong enough that we can basically just wait you out.
00:53:50.000You're going to continue to die and starve, your economy will shrink, your people will be upset, you know, you're going to be restricted in your travels, and your cash reserves are going to run low, and we'll just wait for you to be ready to make a deal, or your country's going to explode.
00:54:06.000And I think that's also good in terms with China.
00:54:09.000You know, if North Korea is going to explode or implode, or there's going to be a bad situation there,
00:54:13.000Then ultimately that's going to be a liability for China.
00:54:16.000So I think all around the Asia situation has been played very well.
00:54:19.000I think it's basically indisputable at this point that we have been handling North Korea and Iran and rogue states in general better than any prior administration since the end of the Cold War.
00:54:30.000Because Bill Clinton basically just ignored these countries.
00:54:34.000North Korea, Pakistan, India becoming nuclear capable, Iran and all these others and allowed them to do what they will and create these problems.
00:54:43.000George W. Bush went crazy and invaded countries on false pretenses in the service of Israel.
00:54:48.000Barack Obama, again, you know, he didn't make it any better with North Korea.
00:54:52.000With the situation with Iran, the deal was terrible.
00:54:55.000It was going to lead to, in 10 years, they were going to have a nuclear arsenal.
00:54:58.000Anyway, it gave them the economic stimulus that they could be a regional player and challenge our hegemony there.
00:55:04.000And so I think the president, it's undeniable, has been handling these rogue states better than any other president since the end of the Cold War.
00:55:11.000I think he's really the model for what a post-Cold War American foreign policy looks like in terms of the prioritization of America's interests and in terms of the exercise of smart and soft power rather than hard power, overwhelming force.
00:55:25.000Oh, overwhelming force, unilateral ground wars, things like this.
00:55:41.000And then lastly, to conclude, we'll be talking sort of on a similar note about Afghanistan.
00:55:47.000We'll take a look at what's going on there.
00:55:49.000So they've been having these negotiations with the Taliban now.
00:55:52.000They've had I think it's about eight talks since the president took office between sort of unofficial American delegations and the Taliban to bring an end to the war in Afghanistan.
00:56:03.000It says, quote, the Pentagon is preparing to withdraw thousands of troops from Afghanistan as part of a proposed peace deal with the Taliban, U.S.
00:56:56.000You know, I seem to recall some details about a white van being stopped.
00:57:00.000I seem to recall dancing on rooftops, and it wasn't Muslims, you know.
00:57:04.000But in any case, we need some assurances that Afghanistan won't be used as a launch pad for international terror attacks.
00:57:12.000However, some officials have concerns about how to hold the group accountable.
00:57:15.000The Washington Post reported that if finalized, the agreement would cut the number of troops in the country from 14,000 to between 8,000 and 9,000.
00:57:25.000The Taliban have refused to recognize the government in Kabul, viewing it as an American puppet.
00:57:30.000The insurgents effectively control around half the country and continue to carry out daily attacks on Afghan security forces.
00:57:38.000has lost more than 2,400 soldiers in its longest war and has spent more than $900 billion on everything from military operations to the construction of roads, bridges, and power plants.
00:57:49.000So basically, you look at this picture, and we need to get out.
00:58:02.000We've spent close to $1 trillion, 2,400 people dead, and the Taliban still controls half the country.
00:58:10.000So after 20 years, again 20 years, a trillion dollars, 2,500 dead, the Taliban still controls half the country.
00:58:18.000We're still not even halfway close to winning.
00:58:21.000And I think that's actually, they've been growing.
00:58:23.000That's not even, I mean like, we were at a point we had a hundred thousand troops in Afghanistan, we beat them back, we had control over most of the country, and they've come back.
00:58:33.000And the reason why is because it's their country.
00:58:41.000So this idea of us occupying them and beating them back, this is something that will go on forever, because ultimately this is their homeland.
00:58:48.000I mean, we could bomb them, we can blow them up, but they're just gonna keep coming back, unless and until, like the president said a couple weeks ago, you just nuke them, wipe them off the map, and kill 10 million people.
00:59:41.000I'm sure you could have terror compounds in the United States right here.
00:59:44.000You could have a terror compound in Canada.
00:59:45.000You could, you know, use this as a launch pad for international terror in Africa, in South America.
00:59:52.000We cannot control every square mile of land that exists on planet Earth and monitor it below ground and above ground and in mountains and make sure that nobody's doing terrorism.
01:00:27.000Instead of trying to occupy every country that might send people who would do harm to our people, what if we just have them at the ports of entry and the borders?
01:00:38.000The only way they get here is by flying to one of our airports, getting on a ship that comes to one of our ports, or flying to a country and crossing through the Mexican border.
01:00:47.000Wouldn't it be much more obvious to just secure the border, secure our ports of entry, and then you don't have to worry about any country?
01:01:38.000You know, even after a troop surge which doubled the amount of troops in Afghanistan when Trump came into office, and we have less territory than we did like 10 years ago, it's time to bring it to an end.
01:02:54.000But you would expect that at the very least less would be coming across the border than before he came into office.
01:02:59.000And the same is true with Afghanistan.
01:03:00.000You would expect that maybe you can't end all the wars the day you get into office, but at the very least you expect that less troops would be overseas than when you got into office.
01:03:08.000And not a thousand to two thousand more.
01:04:02.000They didn't even start pulling them out.
01:04:04.000And now they're going to say, well, if we make a deal with the Taliban, we're going to halve the amount and still have 2,000 more than originally?
01:04:12.000And what I really hope is going to happen
01:04:14.000Is that the election forces his hand on this issue?
01:04:17.000I hope that the upcoming election pressures him into solving this because if you notice during the democratic debates last night and the night before Afghanistan came up both nights and like every candidate with I think two exceptions said we need to end the forever wars we need to bring the troops home and all that
01:04:35.000And I don't think any of these people are serious about that.
01:04:40.000He was president for eight years and there were, you know, the wars did not end.
01:04:44.000The wars raged on throughout his presidency and in some cases expanded.
01:04:48.000You know, so I'm not saying like I believe that a Democrat will come into office and take that, but it should be embarrassing that Democrats can run on that in 2019 or when the general election comes around in 2020.
01:04:59.000How shameful would that be if a Democrat would be on the stage saying, no, I'm actually going to end the Iraq and Afghanistan wars when that was President Trump's platform in 2016.
01:05:09.000It would have been all talk, no action.
01:05:11.000So at the very least, I hope that with the election coming up, with people talking about Afghanistan, it seems like on foreign policy, that's a big sticking point for them.
01:05:19.000This will sort of force his hand to take something out of their
01:05:23.000Repertoire to take something out of their tool belt off of their platform and say this is something we Accomplished promises made promises kept I ended the war, but it's got to happen soon.
01:05:33.000We have to end this war We have no business there.
01:05:38.000We're just burning money and wasting lives So that's Afghanistan, but you know, it's the same It's the same as it's been for like 15 years in Afghanistan same story, right?
01:05:48.000Which is totally ridiculous all these problems for the most part could be solved with no immigration, right?
01:05:53.000But anyway, we're going to take a look at our superchats.
01:05:55.000We'll see what you guys are saying about all this.
01:06:39.000Well, it's not four years quite, but it's sort of strange that it's been three years since I've graduated high school, and that's almost the length of the time that I've been in high school.
01:06:48.000And yet it feels like it went by much faster than high school.
01:06:53.000So I feel like once you get out of high school, once you get out of school and maybe go off to college or start working, then it's like light speed.
01:07:00.000Then time just starts moving like crazy.
01:07:02.000It feels like you're falling down a flight of stairs.
01:07:04.000And you just can't grab on it's like you're falling off of a mountain, you know Just tumbling down trying to grab on but your time just keeps on moving, you know So so just wait you think it move fast when you're 18 yeah 1 to 18 move by pretty quickly at the end of it wait until you're 20 and then 22 and oh
01:07:22.000Then you're in the grave, and then it's done forever.
01:07:25.000And you realize, in the grand scheme of things, relatively speaking, how short life is compared to eternity, right?
01:07:51.000But congratulations on the job, congratulations on school, good luck with everything.
01:07:56.000Hellgraph says, when I say women should stay in the home, people often say that even if it's better, it's not worth it because in cases like when the man dies, she has no skills to keep the family fed.
01:08:11.000Generally speaking, I think it's probably only completely necessary for a woman to be in the home when there's children.
01:08:18.000I still think that women should be generally in the home.
01:08:21.000I think that the household does better when you have a man working and a woman taking care of everything else.
01:08:27.000Because if you think about it, like, just the day-to-day chores, the cooking, the cleaning, the taking care of the children, you cannot, I don't think, be as productive as possible on either side.
01:08:39.000If you have a husband and a wife and they're both working,
01:08:43.000You can't really give it your all if you've got all this other stuff, all these other responsibilities going on at home.
01:08:49.000You're really sort of split in two different places.
01:08:52.000Like, your mind is at work, your mind is also on all these home things which we're splitting and stressed out about.
01:08:58.000Whereas if you have division of labor, and the man says, I'm gonna give work my all, I'm gonna bring home the bread, and the woman says, I'm gonna give being a homemaker my all, and I'm gonna make the house nice, and maybe take care of the home finances, or do the grocery shopping, take care of the kids, all this.
01:09:56.000You know, there's a lot of things that are associated with that, where by the time all is said and done, the amount that you make on top of the husband's salary is marginal, once you account for all the expenses.
01:10:27.000Why do you think you have so many messed up, depressed, anxious, erotic, depraved, strange people these days?
01:10:34.000It's because they didn't have parents in the home.
01:10:36.000They didn't have mothers and fathers raising them.
01:10:38.000They were raised by immigrants or daycare people or public school teachers and that's why they're so messed up.
01:10:44.000So you gotta have the mom in the home for the kitties.
01:10:46.000You know, maybe the kids flee the coop.
01:10:48.000She can get a part-time job or something.
01:10:50.000But also women shouldn't be in the workforce because I think there should not be so much mixing between the genders.
01:10:55.000Beyond that, why is there so much divorce and infidelities?
01:10:58.000Because there's so much mixing of the genders.
01:11:00.000I wouldn't trust my wife to go to work.
01:11:03.000I would not trust my wife for one second to go to work.
01:11:06.000I mean, she'd have to be a real trustworthy and solid individual that I trust her to go and spend eight hours away from me with other men in a workplace.
01:11:15.000You know, I don't think that's good for anybody.
01:11:48.000This is a small percentage of cases we're talking about the society and what is good generally speaking and that is for the mom to be at home husband to be at work and if extenuating circumstances happen then you know you have extraordinary measures in place but uh good question but anyway
01:12:04.000Derek Bowser said, Nick and Mommy Tulsi equals Shark Boy and Lava Girl.
01:13:07.000huddled in the corner of the America First Hermitage, jars of urine littering the floor.
01:13:12.000The way of the future, the way of the future.
01:13:15.000Unironically, I've been on aviator mode.
01:13:18.000I unironically think that's how I'm going to turn out, frankly, at this point.
01:13:22.000That's my biggest fear, is debilitating mental illness.
01:13:25.000You know, that just these neuroses and eccentricities will get to the point that I will just end up... The thing is, though, with Howard Hughes, he had these weird health conditions as well.
01:13:37.000So it wasn't all mental illness, like he was in a plane crash and everything else.
01:13:41.000But I imagine I'll be, you know, at the top of a hotel, screening the same movie over and over again, you know, eating nothing but chocolate and chicken and milk and all that, and sort of reclusive.
01:13:52.000I would like to be sort of like Batman or like Jay Gatsby, where I'm a recluse, sort of an eccentric, inaccessible, strange man, keeps himself holed up away from the rest.
01:14:04.000You know, but totally with it, but mostly having it all together upstairs, you know?
01:14:09.000So, like that, not involuntarily because I'm losing my mind, you know?
01:14:14.000But yeah, you hit the nail right on the head there.
01:14:16.000I was watching that movie the other day.
01:15:58.000I put in work and it's all for the kids.
01:16:00.000But these knickers done forgot what work is.
01:16:04.000X classic X bar much appreciated crazy horse says hey big guy pray for my based Anglo beagle He just got in a scuffle with a cringe shepherd and has to go through surgery big prayers for your dog Sorry to hear that sorry to hear that your dog is weak My dog got a fight with a raccoon the other night and he won the fight.
01:17:37.000Let's Go says the Whopper is so much better than the Big Mac, objectively speaking.
01:17:41.000Sorry big guy, the truth hurts sometimes.
01:17:44.000So obviously we have a plebeian cringe poster, just like the other Super Chatter said, a liar does not concern himself with the opinions of gay retards.
01:18:20.000Yeah, I used to know... I used to be friends with this old waiter.
01:18:24.000This is the reason why I pay at least 25% because this this individual reamed me out because I said I paid sometimes 15% or less because they worked at a restaurant and they were like, how could you pay less than 20% if you can't afford it?
01:18:42.000You shouldn't eat out in a restaurant.
01:20:35.000But after the first debate, if you were to go after that night, after that horrible performance and advertise, I would think that's a bad idea.
01:23:45.000You know, you think I'm just some nice young guy and you're a nice doctor and maybe we just don't have to get into the race realism.
01:23:54.000Maybe that's a little too contentious, right?
01:23:56.000Well, I actually saw it on a friend of mine.
01:23:59.000My friend, QAnon, was visiting Chicago.
01:24:10.000And, uh, we went to this great restaurant, one of my favorite, uh, well, I don't know if it's one of my favorites, but it's this good place in Chicago off Michigan Avenue called, uh, Paisanos.
01:24:20.000I think it's called, I don't know if it's Pizzanos or Paisanos.
01:24:23.000I know the word is Paisan, but it's spelled with a Z like pizza.
01:24:28.000So I don't know if it's a play on words.
01:24:40.000State Street or whatever and so we were there.
01:24:43.000These details are not important but he had on like a thick mustache and the scruff and I was and I didn't acknowledge this at the time but in the back of my head I said that's a really good look.
01:25:11.000I don't know, man, might be the wrong one.
01:25:13.000If she's not down with calling your infant son an Aryan super soldier, if she's not down with referring to the idea of childbirth as content creation, raising racial consciousness, I don't know if that's gonna work out.
01:26:26.000I'm sure blacks will be very grateful if he gets released on account of Trump because we know that they are characterized by their gratitude, right, and their graciousness.
01:26:43.000You know, I think we realize that what MAGA is really about is mass legal immigration, releasing drug dealers and rappers from jail and endless war.
01:26:53.000I think we figured out that that's, oh, but you know, low unemployment.
01:26:56.000So I think that's what we were going for in 2016.
01:28:06.000So, you know, he does good on the sideburns and he trims the mustache trims the eyebrows.
01:28:10.000So I Don't know maybe maybe there's something to this diversity stuff after all, right?
01:28:16.000Steak King says, you know, things are bad when BG Kumbi does the best take on ASAP Rocky I didn't see his take on that but we are big fans of the old BG big fans and
01:28:29.000Benjamin says the mustache is surprisingly good.
01:28:34.000Also, my church over here in Columbia, South Carolina was recently the victim of a hate crime with hundreds of dollars of property destroyed.
01:28:49.000Um Benji says nice haircut the stash looks cleaner than the beard but it kind of makes you look like one of those college campus bible salesmen named Bart.
01:28:57.000Well I don't I never knew any bible salesmen at Boston University but I like the look it makes me look kind of like a cop.
01:30:00.000In spite of that, old age, you know, lived a long life, all things considered, and a good fella, so... TheRealMcGoy says, it's hard to pick who the most obnoxious person you've debated is who has annoyed you the most and why.
01:30:13.000I would say probably Destiny, just because that guy is just the absolute worst.
01:30:21.000Not even because people have this perception that he's a skilled debater or smart.
01:30:29.000He's a sophist and that's the problem.
01:30:31.000You know, these really just annoying tactics and it's designed to just wear you down.
01:30:37.000The fast talking, this sort of just mean-spirited attitude.
01:30:40.000Will not interpret what you're saying as what you're saying.
01:30:43.000You know, it takes everything and it's the worst possible thing.
01:30:46.000And he's just a very nasty guy that doesn't argue in good faith.
01:31:41.000You know, China understands that trade barriers work.
01:31:44.000You know, all these people saying free trade doesn't work, free trade is bad for everybody.
01:31:48.000Now, why are all the best countries, all the most well-off economically countries, the ones that are growing the fastest, why are they all implementing aggressive and restrictive trade policies?
01:31:58.000We're just the ones that figured it out, right?
01:31:59.000We're just the geniuses that are selling off real estate, stocks, debt, all this other currency in exchange for stuff that we could make here at the same price, right?
01:32:58.000Cheddar, the Cheddar Burger is the Chad Burger.
01:33:02.000There's, they make a really good Cheddar Burger.
01:33:04.000At this place called Fatso's in Ukrainian Village in Chicago.
01:33:07.000They make a good cheddar burger at Wiener Circle up in I think it's Lincoln Park, which I was there this weekend.
01:33:15.000So I'm a big fan of the cheddar on the burger, some of these more exotic cheeses, you know.
01:33:20.000Just as long as it's not this weird American stuff.
01:33:23.000I don't really go in for American cheese.
01:33:26.000Tommy says, what do you think about Trump's efforts to counter China's debt diplomacy practices in places like Africa with reforms to OPIC?
01:33:35.000A Bit of Truth says, Turkey threatened to reopen migration to Europe unless Turkish nationals are granted visa-free travel to the European Union.
01:35:54.000I like Tarantino But the last so many movies were cuck films and glorious bastards Django Unchained hatefully these all all these movies are about Minorities killing white people and I don't like that
01:38:59.000Then again, is it like, I don't understand this mentality of thinking it wouldn't be cool to watch war.
01:39:06.000You know, it's like there's a great quote in the movie Patton about George Patton, where he says that compared to all forms of human endeavor, something like this, what do you say, says that, uh, what is it?
01:39:37.000But as a man, as somebody who's sort of right-wing reactionary, you would think you wouldn't get all these pussies who are like, Nick made a joke about war.
01:41:03.000I did do an interview with Soph a while ago, and I'm not a fornicator, by the way.
01:41:09.000Really Good Comics says, With women working, I helped my last GF get a better job, and three weeks later, she leaves me for someone she works with.
01:41:50.000But uh, but I am deadly serious about you know, women should not be allowed to be fraternizing You know people say like oh that sounds like sharia law Okay, uh point being so you know Maybe we need to get closer to that.
01:42:05.000Maybe we need to get closer to that ideal get away from all this mixing all this
01:42:10.000integration between the sexes it's not doing us any favors right but sorry to hear that if that's true funny man says oy nick did you see the new mike something video is pretty good my nick you should check it out yeah oh yeah i see what you're trying to do there i see what you were going for that one it didn't work i've learned all the tricks at this point
01:45:09.000Yeah, good thing everyone's interchangeable.
01:45:11.000Otherwise, it would get really bad, right?
01:45:14.000cringe normie says i stopped playing fortnite for a month and three new seasons you kind of look like hitler with the stache so i guess what people say about you is true how do i look like hitler i just it's not even a hitler mustache but whatever skits says bumper stickers sounds like something an npc would do true
01:45:32.000Ayatollah says, tolerance and apathy are the last virtues of a dying society.
01:48:09.000Anand says, isn't it funny how Whig-nats go on about rightfully how white people willingly let migrants cuck them, but would literally not respond to Iran attacking?
