RadixJournal - Situation Normal All F&%＊ed Up!

00:00:00.620 It's Wednesday, February 5th, and welcome back to the McSpencer Group, still undecided

00:00:07.800 with 60% of precincts reporting.

00:00:10.520 Top issue, situation normal, all effed up.

00:00:15.480 The American Republic is seemingly in peril.

00:00:19.120 The president has been impeached and denounced as a traitor on the floor of the Senate, not

00:00:23.800 to mention cruelly dissed by Franciscan she-devil Nancy Pelosi.

00:00:27.820 And yet, Trump's status has never really been in doubt.

00:00:33.920 A thousand miles away in Iowa, chaos reigns.

00:00:38.340 The first caucus to determine the Democratic nominee was badly botched by a faulty app,

00:00:43.760 developed by a bunch of incompetent Hillary insiders. 0.98

00:00:47.140 No one knows who won.

00:00:49.000 Conspiracy theories abound.

00:00:51.320 All we do know is that Pete Buttigieg has assumed the throne as the cornfield queen.

00:00:56.060 With all the markings of a banana republic, with democracy itself in question, nothing 1.00

00:01:02.640 much seems to have changed.

00:01:04.660 Come for the political discussion.

00:01:06.620 Stay for Ed's excruciating analysis of the homosexual personality from top to bottom. 0.99

00:01:13.080 It reminds me of Britain before the election, the way that Britain was just two sides that

00:01:19.560 hate each other, that can't come to an agreement, that can't move forward.

00:01:23.240 And then there's something that breaks the barrier.

00:01:27.280 There's something that has to give.

00:01:28.700 Yeah.

00:01:29.460 And then that's it.

00:01:30.580 It's given.

00:01:31.540 And to be in a situation where they hate each other so much that he won't shake her hand,

00:01:35.920 which goes against all protocol in these kinds of situations.

00:01:38.840 And then I thought it was extraordinary that she ripped up his speech.

00:01:43.760 The very thought of it.

00:01:44.780 I mean, the very thought, like the British state opening of Parliament of the leader of the opposition

00:01:48.400 taking the queen's speech and tearing it up is unthinkable. 0.61

00:01:54.020 I mean, she seems like she's mentally unstable to do something like that. 1.00

00:01:57.160 I can't believe that her advisers would have said, yes, do that.

00:02:01.400 It seems like it was spontaneous.

00:02:03.680 Extraordinary thing.

00:02:04.480 It might have been spontaneous or it might have actually been planned because she made, 0.81

00:02:09.920 she's Nancy Pelosi has made much ado about these little bitchy gestures. 1.00

00:02:15.640 So there was actually one photo of her in a room with Trump.

00:02:21.500 I can't quite remember what they were talking about.

00:02:23.520 And she was standing up or something like that.

00:02:26.040 And she was posting that everywhere of, you know, Nancy Pelosi, the spearhead of the resistance.

00:02:31.000 And then in the last State of the Union address a year ago, she sarcastically clapped at Trump like that.

00:02:40.540 And that was also played up on Twitter, became a meme and so on.

00:02:44.420 So I would not be surprised if that tearing up the speech was some, you know, some semi-preplanned thing of like,

00:02:51.420 basically, let's go make a meme tonight.

00:02:54.300 And she did.

00:02:56.460 And again, it's all nonsense.

00:02:59.620 Like both sides are rightfully angry.

00:03:02.340 I mean, he didn't shake her hand as well, which is not, you know, you know, it's reasonable to shake someone's hand.

00:03:08.920 He's being she has worked with him in the past.

00:03:12.360 They did a bill together in 2017 and so on. 1.00

00:03:15.520 So he's just being a jerk. 0.99

00:03:17.740 And but both but it doesn't actually change anything. 0.99

00:03:20.240 It just basically activates the bases of both sides.

00:03:23.960 I found the whole thing a bit unbearable.

00:03:26.020 I mean, like, yeah, after after the after she does it on Twitter, you have all these like all light figures like Stefan Molyneux.

00:03:33.180 And they're, you know, they're so outraged, like, oh, I can't even she she ripped up the speech.

00:03:37.360 And it's like, you know, she was she was a one time I think she was clapping along with him was when they were celebrating this Venezuelan opposition leader.

00:03:45.960 And it's like it just sort of underlies this fact that, like, on all the key policy issues, there isn't a huge difference there.

00:03:52.440 And like, you know, just this like left, right, the Democrats, all this stuff like it's just it kind of belies how similar there and that Trump hasn't really accomplished anything in three years.

00:04:05.000 Yeah, exactly. You know, I did a tweet storm on this about actually Nancy Pelosi's earlier career as Speaker of the House, which the Democrats took over the House in something that was a lot like the Tea Party election, actually, in 2006.

00:04:23.180 And it was basically after it was after George W. Bush's reelection.

00:04:27.740 And it was and it was at a point where the Iraq war had just lost all legitimacy or most all legitimacy among the public. 0.52

00:04:34.640 And it was like, we need to get these crazy religious lunatics out and we need to put in good centrist Democrats to make America great again. 0.97

00:04:43.120 And there was a major push to impeach George W. Bush or at the very least, you know, disclose and have a have a, you know, congressional hearing on the Iraq war crimes, lies and so on. 0.55

00:05:03.280 And Nancy Pelosi squashed it almost immediately. And she said, oh, we have an election. We're having a new one coming up. We can't let we're we should move forward and not go back to the past.

00:05:13.580 And so where we are right now is this point in which impeachment, even though it has legal trappings and so on, is highly it's highly political and it is political in its essence.

00:05:27.160 But it's also partisan and kind of unserious. You know, at no point would Donald Trump be questioned by Congress about what are you doing in Venezuela?

00:05:38.780 Why are you declaring this man who you plucked out of, you know, the garden or he came out of the woodwork?

00:05:46.560 You're declaring he's the rightful leader of a of a country that you have no sovereignty over.

00:05:51.500 What are you doing here? Let's have a hearing about this. No, they don't talk about this.

00:05:55.440 They instead talk about some, you know, tiny little thing of, you know, Trump is bullying Ukraine in order to get dirt on Biden.

00:06:04.720 Well, I he probably was doing something like that. But who cares?

00:06:09.720 And so you have this heightened rhetoric and then but then no substance.

00:06:16.260 So there the Democrats are going out there using the T word. They're saying treason and so on.

00:06:22.280 I mean, you know, if you're caught doing treason, the punishment is death.

00:06:27.480 I mean, this is like as serious as you can get. Yet they ultimately know that nothing's really going to happen.

00:06:33.700 He's going to be acquitted today. And they're not going to talk about actually serious issues because they're completely aligned on those issues.

00:06:42.060 You know, Nancy Pelosi will, you know, oh, she hates Trump. He's a fascist. 1.00

00:06:46.300 I mean, look at the reaction to the killing of Soleimani alongside him. 0.98

00:06:51.120 Look at the reaction to the killing of Soleimani. Like, you know, surely there's grounds for potential impeachment there.

00:06:57.060 But you didn't really see any you didn't really see any strong criticism from the Democrats.

00:07:00.720 It was all this like legalistic stuff like, oh, he didn't go through the right means, blah, blah, blah.

00:07:05.840 But there was no actual opposition to him killing the man.

00:07:09.200 No, no, it was. You should have talked to us first, even though we're actually well beyond that.

00:07:16.080 And and, you know, that that that was an issue.

00:07:18.440 We would have approved it, but you should have shown it to us anyway.

00:07:21.700 Yeah, yeah, exactly. And they would have given him a rubber or rubber stamped it.

00:07:26.180 They would have given him a blank check anyway. So what's the whole point of going to Congress?

00:07:29.540 Is it personal between them, do you think, that they can or that she can see parts of herself in Trump that she hates and vice versa?

00:07:37.420 They seem quite similar in terms of backgrounds. They're both extremely wealthy backgrounds.

00:07:42.420 He's this hereditary businessman. She's this hereditary politician.

00:07:45.760 Her father was the representative for Maryland or something.

00:07:48.860 Was it a mayor of Baltimore? Her brother was mayor of Baltimore.

00:07:51.940 She's this aristocrat, essentially a Democrat aristocrat like Al Gore. 0.68

00:07:55.520 You get so many of them. They wax lyrical about the importance of helping the poor or whatever.

00:07:59.620 And they're all from fantastically wealthy backgrounds that have never done a proper work in their lives.

00:08:03.180 And she sees this in Trump. It's the same reflected back at her.

00:08:06.580 It's the same kind of almost narcissism in some ways reflected back at her.

00:08:09.320 So she hates him and he hates her. It's a personal thing. It seems personal.

00:08:14.520 Yeah, there is a bit of a wealthy boomer on boomer violence going on there.

00:08:19.920 Yeah, I think it's about that. But it's, again, about this partisanship, which, at least for the time being, is actually stable in the sense that people are getting very mad and they hate the other side in a way that we didn't see even as late as the 90s or even the early 2000s.

00:08:42.940 They absolutely loathe the other side. But then due to the intractable nature of this red-blue divide, nothing actually changes. 0.79

00:08:53.380 So Trump hasn't done much of anything. And the things he takes credit for, he shouldn't.

00:08:59.160 The stock market's up or whatever. Fed is just goosing the markets.

00:09:03.300 So there's this heightened rhetoric and heightened hatred, but then no actual substance, no policy is actually changing.

00:09:13.540 I think one of the real divides that's noticeable from the outside is that American politics seems to be split into people that think America is still something to be governed according to principles and to meet certain ideals.

00:09:31.420 And then people that think basically America is something that is on its last legs and just to get as much out of it as you can before it goes.

00:09:39.580 Like AOC, I think it was AOC, you know, it was Ilhan Omar posted a picture of her with some other brown female member of Congress and was like, this is what America looks like now.

00:09:50.280 Deal with it. You know, like rubbing people's face in it.

00:09:52.240 And then at the same time, you know, you have, again, people in the alt-right that are like posting pictures of all the Democrats wearing white.

00:10:00.860 And it's like, oh, the Dems never changed. They're still wearing white robes and, you know, still playing these ridiculous games of universal principles.

00:10:09.100 And Trump, like Trump in 2016 was the latter. He was, you know, white people's sort of warrior in that. 0.82

00:10:19.400 He, you know, he labeled the system corrupt. He labeled it failing and he was basically going to get as much out of it as he could.

00:10:25.060 He was going to go in as the sort of amoral billionaire and take as much out of it as he could for his base.

00:10:31.720 But now in the speech, he's gone the other side and he is, you know, he's a typical, you know, he's a Jeb Bush style Republican.

00:10:39.240 I mean, is this speech any different than if Jeb had been elected in 2016?

00:10:43.880 I mean, what's different? Maybe, you know, maybe.

00:10:47.560 Well, yeah, maybe. I mean, it's probably the same speech writer, you know.

00:10:51.240 Yeah, it's same speech. The same conservatives are writing the speech.

00:10:53.960 I think what's slightly different is the, you know, kind of maudlin tales of illegal immigrants killing Americans or something.

00:11:04.300 I don't think Jeb would have done that, to be fair.

00:11:07.340 But in terms of would Jeb be bringing the same people up to, you know, this black single mom and her child and talk about school choice,

00:11:16.300 which is a disastrous policy and not anything we should support, by the way.

00:11:21.520 But but also, you know, bringing out this, you know, puppet leader of Venezuela and calling him legitimate.

00:11:29.620 Of course, Jeb would do that. So Hillary would do it. 1.00

00:11:32.700 I mean, it's it's it's again, it's like they hate each other with such furious passion, the same and nothing is actually really fundamentally changing.

00:11:43.500 It's it's just a remarkable state that we're in right now.

00:11:47.580 But, you know, she should stand to be the Democrat presidential candidate. 1.00

00:11:52.620 That would be that would be a true battle to the death.

00:11:55.600 It would be a true grudge match.

00:11:57.580 That would be more so even than Hillary. 0.98

00:12:01.000 Yeah.

00:12:02.660 Rich white people.

00:12:04.040 Yeah.

00:12:04.300 Yeah.

00:12:06.880 But this is where we are.

00:12:09.920 I mean, I was I I on YouTube yesterday, I saw this video of Steve Bannon being interviewed on Fox Business Channel with this woman.

00:12:20.520 I think I'm forgetting her name, Marina Bartolombo, or I'm mispronouncing it.

00:12:24.660 But anyway, she's a Republican aligned pro business type person.

00:12:28.680 She's, you know, fairly smart.

00:12:30.220 And she was talking with Bannon and, you know, I and I was thinking to myself, Trump might very well win again, ironically using Bannonism.

00:12:41.420 And it's not necessarily the tough talk on immigration and foreign policy.

00:12:47.740 But it's basically this, you know, focusing on impeachment as as the issue that you should be voting on in a presidential election.

00:12:56.560 And basically saying Bannon was saying in his words is this is the crime of the century.

00:13:00.920 This was an attempted coup.

00:13:02.680 You have to tell them no and so on.

00:13:05.080 And I can see that working and the Democrats are just giving I mean, they are they are in such a great position to win, you know, even the fact that he's an incumbent notwithstanding.

00:13:18.840 And they just giving him all of the messaging, the you know, this botched fake impeachment, they can't they're playing dirty tricks or they're extremely incompetent or some kind of combination in their own primaries.

00:13:36.380 No one has any faith in that party.

00:13:38.960 It's kind of viewed as this dark, sinister organization picking elections.

00:13:43.960 It's just what they are doing right now is is incomprehensible, whereas if they could just ride it out and not poke the bear too hard, I think they could actually easily win in 2020.

00:13:58.180 And I'm I'm questioning whether they can beat even Trump in 2020.

00:14:03.460 And I'm not particularly enthused by that, to be honest, because that means another four years of white America and the alt right being diluted.

00:14:12.020 But, you know, there it is.

00:14:14.580 That's the main difference between a Jeb presidency and a Trump president presidency is that if Jeb had been elected, no one from the alt right in 2016 would be defending this stuff.

00:14:24.960 Right. But now when it's when it's this choice of, well, do we support this or do we support a Democrat that's going to throw us in gulags, which is the perception among a lot of right.

00:14:35.240 That's that's that's a much more difficult choice. And unfortunately, you know, Trump is kind of the worst of both worlds because he gives you the typical neocon globalist policies.

00:14:47.220 But the left still perceive him as a racist nationalist and his supporters.

00:14:52.260 And, you know, what was the alt right still take the flack for that as if as if he is those things.

00:14:56.620 So it really is the worst of every world. And it is it is definitely something of a dilemma.

00:15:01.600 You know, what do you do if you're a racially conscious American for this election?

00:15:06.120 Yeah, I mean, that that is a serious question.

00:15:09.560 I I'm I'm I'm certainly considering voting for either Tulsi Gabbard or Bernie Sanders and not on accelerationist grounds or something like that.

00:15:22.520 Like, let's make it so much worse.

00:15:24.920 If I were to do that, I would write in Ilion Omar. 0.53

00:15:27.640 But just in the sense that, you know, I putting the immigration and the diversity stuff aside, I actually agree with them on more issues than I agree with Trump on.

00:15:41.040 But she can't stand this Ilion Omar person.

00:15:43.900 She can't stand. She's not a native born American. 1.00

00:15:46.900 She can't stand in the election.

00:15:48.280 Yeah, that that is true.

00:15:49.780 You should vote for this Pete, this Pete Buttigieg person.

00:15:54.880 That's why I think you should definitely vote for him.

00:15:56.420 OK, let's talk about Mayor Pete, Mayo Pete, as he's called on the far left.

00:16:07.680 Oh, yes, I I'll just go first.

00:16:14.180 I truly despise Pete Buttigieg in a way that I certainly don't despise Tulsi and Bernie.

00:16:22.500 Bernie is an authentic 20th century social Democrat.

00:16:26.860 He's he's he's bowing to woke pressure.

00:16:29.600 But I actually don't think his heart is in wokeness or me too.

00:16:33.840 I think that's clear.

00:16:34.700 Whether he's able to resist it or reverse it is unclear and dubious.

00:16:40.500 Tulsi, I think, is just generally good.

00:16:43.160 I mean, I don't have a huge I would say more or less the same thing about her.

00:16:47.460 Um, she is an authentic, real candidate.

00:16:50.460 Um, I don't know.

00:16:51.280 I don't really hate Amy Klobuchar.

00:16:53.380 She just is what she is.

00:16:55.060 You know, I don't have a Pat, you know, Biden's just Joe Biden.

00:16:58.320 He's, you know, he's this, you know, this, you know, delusional early onset Alzheimer's 1.00

00:17:04.860 case and, you know, blowhard and a liar. 1.00

00:17:07.720 But he is what he is. 1.00

00:17:08.960 Everyone knows it. 0.96

00:17:09.660 Um, Buttigieg, I think, is so just demoralizing because he's such an obvious little weasel 0.90

00:17:16.640 sociopath and he is his policies are Joe Biden.

00:17:21.700 He is a neocon, neoliberal centrist who speaks in a kind of Midwestern twang of like, my policies

00:17:30.220 are plenty bold and all this kind of thing.

00:17:32.700 So he would basically represent the continuation of boomer centrism ad infinitum.

00:17:40.140 So it's much worse.

00:17:41.400 You know, Joe Biden might very well die soon or be in an old folks home. 0.98

00:17:46.320 And I, of course, wish him well.

00:17:47.400 I would never, um, uh, and never wish him to be in that state.

00:17:50.920 It just is what it is.

00:17:52.160 Buttigieg is 37.

00:17:53.700 I mean, he's, he's Ed's age.

00:17:55.200 He's, um, even though Ed is on the interior, uh, in 39.

00:18:00.060 Okay.

00:18:00.500 He's younger than Ed, but, but on the interior, Ed, you're well into your eighties.

00:18:04.660 So I'm not sure it actually counts.

00:18:07.600 Um, or maybe in the 19th, living in the 19th century, perhaps, but he's a, he's a young

00:18:14.560 millennial who is just continuing all of the nonsense.

00:18:19.260 It's like so demoralizing in the sense that we'll never get out of this.

00:18:23.220 We, we are going to be like going down the Americanist centrism line until 2080.

00:18:30.540 And it's just, he, I, I truly despise him. 0.85

00:18:33.860 He, he does strike me as the most Weasley sociopathic candidate, just kind of this little 0.93

00:18:39.280 guy checking off all the boxes on his resume.

00:18:41.780 Like, you know, Oh, I was in the military.

00:18:44.220 It was a wrote scholar.

00:18:45.260 Oh, I speak of, I speak Finnish or whatever.

00:18:47.720 Kick check.

00:18:48.320 Like it's just, I think he speaks Norwegian maybe or something.

00:18:53.100 He speaks multiple.

00:18:54.240 I think he is Norwegian.

00:18:55.300 He did a Norwegian course at Pembroke College Oxford.

00:18:57.400 I believe that's right.

00:18:58.120 I believe I heard that.

00:18:59.380 Right.

00:18:59.880 But he is just unbelievably annoying and I absolutely cannot stand him.

00:19:05.580 He is my least favorite candidate.

00:19:08.640 Um, I've got, I've got a question about him though.

00:19:10.400 Um, is he a queer? 0.99

00:19:14.500 I'll do that a bit later.

00:19:18.320 You're meant to say, well, some people have actually questioned because he's such a little

00:19:26.760 weasel that he might've like understood where politics was going like circa 2011 and decided, 0.96

00:19:33.820 Hmm, see, I'm going to be gay, but then I'm going to quote the Bible and I'll be kind of 0.55

00:19:40.320 conservative. 0.85

00:19:40.880 And so like, so I, some people have, have become people, are birthers.

00:19:50.680 You're meant to say, um, he, he looks like, he looks like a queer. 1.00

00:19:54.540 He sounds like a queer on the wireless. 1.00

00:19:56.260 He looks like a queer on the, he sounds like a queer on the wireless, he probably is a queer. 0.99

00:19:58.980 Although he does quote the Bible, which would militate against him being a queer. 0.99

00:20:03.360 But, but look, the point is that quoting the Bible is interesting one because, uh, homosexual 1.00

00:20:08.160 males are more religious than heterosexual males because they have feminized minds. 0.99

00:20:13.440 So there's various theories as to what causes homosexuality.

00:20:16.080 But one of, one of those theories is that it is good to have certain, a certain degree

00:20:21.780 of feminine, feminine, feminization is selected in men.

00:20:25.380 So females select for masculine men, but they also like some qualities in men that are feminine,

00:20:30.140 such as looking after them and not just pumping and dumping, whatever feminine, feminine qualities. 1.00

00:20:34.980 And so consequently, you get these, these feminine qualities within the male gene pool. 1.00

00:20:39.900 And sometimes they all manifest in one child. 0.79

00:20:42.140 And that child is gay and that, or indeed a transsexual, a homosexual, transsexual. 1.00

00:20:47.360 And so that's one, that's one theory. 0.61

00:20:49.440 Another theory is that there's something wrong with the mother so that the mother reacts to

00:20:55.000 the male hormones that are released by a male fetus by flooding it with the immune system,

00:21:01.860 floods it with these female hormones. And some of these will get through the amniotic sack 1.00

00:21:07.060 and they will influence the child. And if the child has a poor immune system or the mother has

00:21:11.960 an overactive immune system, then this will feminize the child. It will literally physically 1.00

00:21:16.380 feminize it. Homosexuals have more feminized hands than, than, than heterosexual males. 0.98

00:21:21.840 They are physically shorter and you note that he's short, this Pete Buttigieg.

00:21:26.940 Yeah.

00:21:27.720 And they, they have-

00:21:28.820 I have noticed that among gays. They're, they're, they're, they're, the, the gay, there's the 1.00

00:21:33.920 so-called gay face. It's kind of seems rounder and softer and then they kind of look like kids 1.00

00:21:41.080 or something.

00:21:42.100 That's right. It's feminized as the face. They're more likely to be left-handed. 0.99

00:21:45.320 Left-handedness is, is a, is a, it betokens something having gone wrong early in development.

00:21:50.660 Left-handedness. One of the markers of this. And so left-handed-

00:21:54.720 Left-handed, by the way, I confirmed this.

00:21:56.620 Oh, I am. Yes. Yes. I was born three months early. So it's an example of something having

00:22:00.140 gone wrong early in development. Are you left-handed, Richard?

00:22:02.920 No, I'm right.

00:22:03.520 Are you left-handed? Okay. So left-handedness correlates with two things. It correlates,

00:22:07.420 therefore, with developmental instability, an example of which is homosexuality, but also

00:22:11.340 being very, very manly. So men are more, right, are more left-handed than women and 0.99

00:22:16.620 high testosterone men are more, ironically, more left-handed than low testosterone men.

00:22:20.160 So it's a strange kind of paradox there. So, and it feminizes the mind, which would 0.58

00:22:25.100 be consistent, therefore, with doing an arts degree. It would be consistent with liking

00:22:29.520 to wear a military uniform, you know, liking to sit at the captain's table and generally

00:22:35.300 messing about.

00:22:36.700 Yeah. It's basically, his military career was basically the village people.

00:22:41.320 Like that.

00:22:41.460 I think that's the impression. That's the general impression, I guess. It was like Mr. Garrison

00:22:45.700 fighting a Vietnam War in South Park, where they're all on these different rides and so

00:22:50.700 on. It's like that.

00:22:51.760 We're spreading freedom, boys!

00:22:53.620 I can just imagine him being, like, the only one that, like, unironically, like, believe

00:22:59.720 in all the rhetoric.

00:23:01.160 Yes.

00:23:03.760 He feminizes the mind. It feminizes the body. It also feminizes the mind. They have a feminine 1.00

00:23:10.620 intelligence profile, homosexuals, so with more high linguistic intelligence. You talk about

00:23:15.200 him learning languages.

00:23:16.560 Yeah.

00:23:17.180 You talk about him learning languages.

00:23:19.120 Yeah, of course. Women are better at learning languages than men. Women have higher linguistic 0.95

00:23:23.040 intelligence than men. Two reasons. A, they just have to talk more and gossip and whatever. 0.94

00:23:27.920 Yeah.

00:23:28.140 And B, maybe the idea that they are taken captive in prehistory by other tribes, and the ones

00:23:34.260 that are better at learning languages are less likely to be killed. But for whatever reason,

00:23:38.260 they're better at learning languages. So he has all of these different markers of it.

00:23:41.880 Even high IQ. He's been to Pembroke College, Oxford. I assume he's quite intelligent.

00:23:45.360 And IQ correlates with being homosexual. So, yeah, he's a very, the only thing that 1.00

00:23:52.200 militates against it, as I understood it, was that he was married. But then I discovered

00:23:55.420 he was married to a man. And the man is obviously much more feminine than him. The man is obviously 0.76

00:24:03.280 the bottom.

00:24:08.340 Most likely. 0.98

00:24:09.960 Well, at least Americans can know if they're going to have a gay president, he's at least 1.00

00:24:13.340 going to be the top. 0.97

00:24:15.560 That's true.

00:24:16.240 See, this is where I disagree. Just because I prefer authenticity and honesty. Maybe to

00:24:28.380 a fault. And again, what drives me crazy about Buttigieg is I can see the smarminess. And I

00:24:37.860 feel like other people, you know, Iowa types who voted for him just can't. Oh, he's such

00:24:43.120 a good, he's a good guy. He's a gay, but oh, he's not one of those. He's such a good 1.00

00:24:47.620 guy. I see through it. And I know his game. And I would much prefer if we're to have a gay 1.00

00:24:57.520 president, just to go all out the full Monty, so to speak, and just maybe literally elect 0.96

00:25:05.460 Elton John.

00:25:06.960 So you're against the optics coke gays. 1.00

00:25:10.440 Yeah, optics cucking gay. I hate all optics cucking, but yeah, let's just be honest about 1.00

00:25:17.340 what's happened and face the future. And just, yeah, elect a absurd queen as president if we're 1.00

00:25:27.400 going to do this. I don't want to see Pete Buttigieg up there as this Christian patriotic 1.00

00:25:32.460 gay. That is just so ridiculous. Just become who you are, Pete. So yeah, I would make the 1.00

00:25:41.680 case for the bottom.

00:25:42.060 That's not quite fair, because there are clear psychological differences between tops and

00:25:47.000 bottoms. So it's been found that those who are bottoms are more feminized, physically

00:25:53.860 and mentally more feminized than the tops. They are more likely to suffer from depression.

00:25:57.920 They're more likely to commit suicide. They're more likely to have asthma. They're more likely

00:26:02.560 to show evidence of developmental instability, basically, mutant genes or things having gone

00:26:06.140 wrong early in life. They are more feminized. 0.61

00:26:09.320 Much more likely to be entertaining.

00:26:12.360 Oh, yeah, that's true.

00:26:13.140 That counts for something.

00:26:14.220 He's not that. He's not a bottom. His teacher, school teacher, husband person is almost certainly

00:26:20.120 a bottom. But he's a top. He's like the lawyer.

00:26:22.660 This is going to be every political debate in the West in 20 years.

00:26:26.700 In modern family, they've got the lawyer, who's the ginger guy. And I think he's, I

00:26:30.520 get the impression he's the top. And then there's the fat school teacher. I think he's 0.85

00:26:33.880 the bottom. And he's very much the lawyer. He's the ginger hair bloke. So he is being

00:26:40.900 himself. It would be dishonest for him to prance around being a queen. That's not what

00:26:44.900 he is. He's, he's a, I think when I'm referring to, when I'm referring to honesty, I, I'm,

00:26:51.060 I'm kind of referring just to the honesty about, you know, homo, you know, from a, a non 1.00

00:26:55.920 homosexual facing this reality that I would rather it just be completely ridiculous than 1.00

00:27:03.040 to, to, to, to find this middle ground in which, you know, he's one of the good ones 0.96

00:27:08.500 or something. I, I hate that stuff.

00:27:10.940 You said, you said face, you said face. But, um, it's, it's, it's, um, it's, sorry. Uh,

00:27:18.440 yes. Anyway. Yes.

00:27:20.260 I just think the, the only thing, the only thing worse, the only fate worse than being

00:27:24.180 a Pakistani shepherd watched in your village, which your family getting blown up by a drone

00:27:30.000 strike would be knowing that the guy that ordered it has a husband named Chastain.

00:27:33.780 Yes. That, that would, I would join ISIS in his case. 0.99

00:27:39.220 That might, that might lead to the end of the American empire, actually.

00:27:42.720 Yeah.

00:27:43.640 Even, even worse, if the president was Chastain, if the president was a bottom. 0.85

00:27:48.420 No, that's an accident.

00:27:49.100 And that was what the, that's a fair point, actually.

00:27:51.600 Awful. Awful. I mean, they're three times more likely to suffer from depression and anxiety,

00:27:56.140 these, uh, homosexual males. 0.99

00:27:57.880 Send them the drones. 1.00

00:28:00.740 Awful.

00:28:01.240 Let them have drones. 1.00

00:28:06.740 Uh, 4.6% of heterosexual men have been sexually abused compared to, uh, is it 16% of, uh,

00:28:15.580 homosexual men? I've got the numbers here somewhere.

00:28:18.160 Chronic illness is, um, much higher among them.

00:28:22.400 Asthma is much higher.

00:28:23.920 It's 20% of, uh, 15%, um, 15% of heterosexual people suffer from asthma at some point in their lives.

00:28:29.600 20% of homosexuals. 0.92

00:28:32.160 Um, it just, uh, it just goes on and on. 0.99

00:28:35.600 But at least these flamboyant gays are good for something. 1.00

00:28:38.520 Like, you know, the, the, they, they're entertaining. 0.86

00:28:42.520 They, you know, support the opera or whatever. 0.81

00:28:45.880 Again, it's the Buttigieg gays that just, yeah, I, I, they, they have no redeeming qualities. 1.00

00:28:51.100 The worst is bisexual, bisexual. 1.00

00:28:52.720 They're boring and gay. 1.00

00:28:55.320 Bisexuality coronates with psychopathic personality and narcissism in a way that homosexuality doesn't. 1.00

00:29:00.700 Uh, bisexualists. 1.00

00:29:01.420 I, that doesn't surprise me when you, when you think about it.

00:29:03.800 It's that kind of total disconnection.

00:29:06.240 I mean, I, I think, um, you know, I, I don't, I've always, I've never, I've never taken the line, which I've heard a bunch of, uh, from a lot of conservatives that gays are, uh, you know, faking it effectively. 0.95

00:29:20.600 That they're just sexual, uh, freaks and they just want to try everything.

00:29:24.860 I, I, I don't think that you do that. 0.95

00:29:28.440 Um, I, I think it's a kind of a bit of an on-off switch and, you know, you could say that a gay is subnormal or that he's suffering from something, but I don't think he's faking it. 0.99

00:29:38.560 I, I think that he, he does have these maladaptive attractions and it's real and, and, and we can talk about that and so on, but I don't think we're going to pray it away or convince him to be otherwise.

00:29:50.760 Um, whereas the, the bisexual, I, I, I could actually agree with that line in the sense that it's somewhat, the, the sociopath is just disconnected from empathy. 0.97

00:30:01.220 He, he doesn't, you know, having sex is the, the same as masturbating or having sex with the wall or something. 0.71

00:30:09.680 It's, he's, he's disconnected from that human connection or real attraction and it's just all a kind of game to him. 0.97

00:30:16.460 So I, I could, I could see that in a, in a bisexual. 0.93

00:30:19.260 If you're, if you are a psychopath, people, people are objects. 0.96

00:30:23.140 And if you are autistic, people, people are, it's also called autism. 0.95

00:30:26.300 People are objects, objects. 0.97

00:30:27.820 You're interested in objects.

00:30:29.360 And so you see how that would happen.

00:30:31.460 You also have a very weak sense of self and of who you are at any given time, very weak sense of identity.

00:30:37.220 And so the idea that you're, you could literally be a heterosexual one day, homosexual the next, whatever.

00:30:41.160 There's no, there's no grounded sense of self.

00:30:43.580 With gays, it's much more consistent. 0.99

00:30:45.200 And also the heritability of homosexuality among men is a 0.4 genetic component, which means there must have been some sort of evolutionary benefit to having homosexuality. 0.69

00:30:56.040 There's, there's a number of models of why.

00:30:57.860 One of them is what's called gay uncle theory, which people are familiar with, which is, which is that you have a gay uncle and he invests in the kinship group.

00:31:04.920 And therefore the kinship group is more likely to survive.

00:31:07.500 There's also this younger brother theory, which is that if you have lots of older brothers, then the woman's immune reaction against the male hormones of the male child is stronger each time, which means that the more older brothers you have, the more likely you are to be gay.

00:31:21.140 It increases the odds by 0.3, each older brother that you have.

00:31:24.780 And so this then reduces intermale conflict, because once there's lots and lots of males, then you have a gay male.

00:31:29.220 So there's not more intermale, intermale conflict.

00:31:31.940 Another possibility is.

00:31:32.960 Is it a response to polygamy in that sense?

00:31:35.680 Yeah, in that sense.

00:31:36.380 Yes, it would be.

00:31:36.940 Yeah, precisely.

00:31:37.920 And then the alpha gets a lot of wives. 1.00

00:31:40.120 And so, you know, there's conflict between the males.

00:31:43.060 Right.

00:31:43.460 But you could reduce that conflict by simply reducing numbers.

00:31:46.400 Yeah. 0.98

00:31:47.020 The number of men that want to have sex with women. 0.99

00:31:48.640 Yeah. 0.96

00:31:48.920 And so another possibility is that they're more religious.

00:31:51.620 We know that.

00:31:52.140 And so they can be more group selected.

00:31:54.000 They can do things for the good of the group rather than for the good of having children, investing energy in that.

00:32:00.160 They invest their energy perhaps in a male partner, but also in group selected things, like being a priest or being an inventor or being a genius or whatever, which would be consistent with having higher IQ, actually.

00:32:10.880 And in particularly, then if homosexuality is illegal, if it's repressed, then they're forced to focus all of their energies in their group selected work.

00:32:19.720 And so this helps us understand why it would be maintained, even in societies like ancient Judea or whatever, that have the death penalty for homosexuality, it'd still be in their interests to have homosexuals who did group selected work. 0.79

00:32:35.060 And more religious, remember, like priests and priests are group selected, priests are inspiring the group.

00:32:39.080 So I don't think they're all with the idea that they're just degenerate or even that it's maladaptive.

00:32:43.160 It could be adaptive at the group level to have an optimum small number of homosexual men, I think. 0.65

00:32:48.820 Well, perhaps the best solution is an amalgam between intolerance and tolerance.

00:32:55.960 Obviously, what we're doing now is rather absurd, and I think it actually might be, or very likely, might be confusing kids who are going through puberty and don't know who they are and so on.

00:33:09.380 But the optimal kind of political solution would be to say that we accept this reality that a small percentage of men will be homosexual, but we are not really going to tolerate it publicly and we're not going to celebrate it.

00:33:27.720 And this will lead a lot of these gays to be a little bit repressed and then sublimate all their energy into, you know, art or science or philosophy. 1.00

00:33:39.000 And that's exactly what they did. That's exactly what they did in the past.

00:33:41.780 That's precisely, there's so many historical examples of homosexuals who would, or such like, geniuses.

00:33:47.720 Certainly, these tend to be childless, overwhelmingly childless.

00:33:52.760 So I think that's, yeah, I mean, at the height of our group selection, when we were doing the best as a society in 1870 or whatever, when the West, the height of its genius, per capita genius, the punishment for homosexuality was a few years hard labor in prison. 0.63

00:34:07.100 So that's it. I don't know. I don't know. I don't think that's quite fair, but that, that seems to be when the society was doing its best, that was when it was the Tchaikovsky's and Oscar Wilde types, basically. Yes.

00:34:19.880 Well, yes. So now, but now we have Pete, Pete Buttigieg, who is just getting back, just getting back to the politics that I do find that very, please, I do find it very black pill and that, uh,

00:34:37.100 you know, I thought after Hillary losing, I expected the Democrats to kind of move towards a more Bernie Sanders oriented socialism, a more kind of, uh, focus on structural issues rather than the, uh, you know, deep woke politics that they're engaged in.

00:34:53.840 Now, I didn't think we'd see a Buttigieg character pop up, pop up like this. I definitely didn't think he'd be anywhere near the potential for taking a nomination.

00:35:04.540 So, uh, I am surprised that is his unnatural entry, which, uh, I was even, I was even more surprised to see him, uh, bring up the rear and end up coming, coming out on top in Iowa.

00:35:21.440 But, uh, but, um, what was the point? Oh yeah. The point was the point. It's like, it kind of shows the paradox of this because, uh, he's playing this identity, like woke capital thing and he's for minorities and liberalism for everybody. Uh, but at the same time, he's pulling that 0% with black voters. 0.67

00:35:41.180 So, uh, it does, it does kind of show the paradox within this.

00:35:45.280 Blacks have been under Darwinian selection until more recently. And consequently, blacks, I mean, they're also less group selective. So there's, so actually there's a less homosexuality among blacks and B, they're just more, I have more adaptive ways of thinking on a lot of things. 0.64

00:36:01.760 They're smart enough to see through him.

00:36:04.100 They are.

00:36:04.440 I think it's the middle-brained, sorry, white Iowans who are kind of like, Ooh, what a good guy. Yeah. He's so nice. 0.95

00:36:13.980 That sounds like Dave Chappelle doing the impression of a white person. That's what that's like. Is that how I talk? Iowans talk like Dave Chappelle doing the impression of a white person. 0.71

00:36:23.500 So why is it the case then that basically the, the result, because of what I've read, it's the result in Iowa is totally hung. It's that the three of them, uh, Warren, him, have got the same mouth.

00:36:34.100 I think Warren was a bit back in third, wasn't she? Bernie and Pete are kind of neck and neck, but he, I think Pete is right, slightly ahead.

00:36:42.700 Yeah. Well, let's, let's get, let's get into this because, you know, just like there's, there's hot polarization between the parties.

00:36:50.560 There actually is a very strong polarization within the democratic party that I think might not be exactly apparent to people looking into it.

00:37:00.240 And it, and it might not really be apparent to those average Iowans who went and voted in this caucus.

00:37:05.820 Uh, and, and, and that is that like what you're saying is true that, that you thought that there would be a more move towards social democracy and social reforms that, that actually is happening.

00:37:17.180 I mean, the fact is all of the, the, the, the centrist old white guys with the exception of Biden, uh, lost in the debates.

00:37:26.600 They, they were pulling at 0% and they were being shamed for not supporting Medicare for all.

00:37:31.440 Now, you know, rewind, uh, 10 years, Medicaid for, or, or Medicare for all wasn't even really on the radar screen.

00:37:39.740 I mean, Obama, you know, with Obamacare, that was ultimately a Republican proposal.

00:37:44.800 He went back to the, literally to the heritage foundation and used Romney care, uh, as his version of socialized healthcare.

00:37:53.420 Uh, and so now there, there's, there's certainly the woke contingent within the democratic party.

00:37:59.040 And there's some crossover with this new social democratic contingent where they're talking about capitalism.

00:38:05.620 We need to end capitalism.

00:38:07.300 You would not have heard that 20 years ago, or at least not heard it amongst so many people.

00:38:12.720 And, uh, they hate Hillary and so on.

00:38:15.320 And they, they feel like, uh, Bernie both bowed to Hillary, kowtowed to Hillary too much and was ultimately betrayed by Hillary when she threw him under the bus, uh, a couple of weeks ago.

00:38:25.900 And so there, there really is a kind of polarization or civil war going on within the democratic party.

00:38:32.140 And this Iowa thing is going to exasperate it.

00:38:36.500 I mean, I think it's going to, from the outside of like a normie voter, I think they're going to view the democratic party as, you know, corrupt or totally incompetent.

00:38:45.660 Uh, but within the party, uh, I, I don't, I think there's a lot of demoralization and a lot of extreme anger because if you, you look at what happened, there was this, um, you know, hot new techie firm called shadow.

00:39:00.360 And I think, I think its original name was like ground base or, or something of this nature.

00:39:06.020 And it's basically a bunch of C tier coders who go to the democratic party and say, we've got the hot new thing. 0.57

00:39:15.120 And they're actually, they were working on the Hillary campaign and this, um, this company was, they, they got paid by Biden for a little bit.

00:39:24.260 And then he kicked him out because he, he was afraid of their, he, there's, it didn't pass the cyber security test.

00:39:30.420 Uh, so this whole thing is just these incompetent, you know, C tier people who go to politics and say, I have this hot new solution.

00:39:38.700 And it's actually this app that doesn't pass muster that the people in Iowa couldn't even download onto their phones.

00:39:46.380 They didn't know how to use it.

00:39:47.420 You had to bypass your smartphone security to put it on.

00:39:50.800 Sorry, excuse me.

00:39:53.460 And this is, is this to vote?

00:39:55.180 What did this have this effect?

00:39:57.200 Well, the votes corrupted.

00:39:59.000 I think, I, I think, I think it's malicious incompetence.

00:40:03.740 I know. 0.98

00:40:04.460 I think that these people are buffoons at some level. 1.00

00:40:08.180 And at this point they're covering their ass, but the ultimate optics of it is that they are a shadowy sinister group promoting, either covering for Biden or promoting. 0.99

00:40:20.620 Buttigieg, uh, because the big story coming out, uh, if, from what we can see from the election, the big story should have been, oh, Bernie won. 0.99

00:40:31.500 And, and according to Bernie's internal polls, he did win.

00:40:35.220 Although obviously we should take those with a grain of salt.

00:40:37.780 Those are coming from the campaign, but that Bernie won and that Biden finished fourth or fifth.

00:40:42.260 So Biden's campaign is collapsing.

00:40:44.780 It's not gaining any traction.

00:40:46.700 And Bernie is ascendant.

00:40:48.460 You know, what happened is that we had this incompetent snafu and then Buttigieg declared victory.

00:40:56.800 And then the next day, I mean, we're, we're, we're going on 48 hours.

00:41:00.340 No one knows who won the, you know, 24 hours later, they received, they released 60% of the polling.

00:41:05.880 And Buttigieg has a, uh, uh, a lead that is quite small and depending on the County could just flip and he could have, he could, we could end up a day from now.

00:41:16.320 He loses by five points or 10 points.

00:41:19.000 Uh, but now he has a small lead.

00:41:21.440 Uh, Bernie is strong.

00:41:22.580 So it, it seems, and, and, and Buttigieg paid the shadow group, not, not a huge sum.

00:41:28.000 I think $20,000 for their efforts at sending text messages to voters or whatever.

00:41:34.780 But did you see the link with this, this billionaire Seth Clareman that supposedly fund funded this app?

00:41:41.040 And he's also, he's become one of the biggest supporters of Buttigieg because Trump mentioned something about debt forgiveness for Puerto Rico.

00:41:48.240 And he's one of these vulture capitalists that has like $900 million worth of Puerto Rican debt.

00:41:54.380 So now, yeah, so now he's, he's thrown his weight behind, uh, getting Trump out of office, but he basically wants anyone except Bernie.

00:42:01.120 So he started with Biden and now he's kind of shifted to Buttigieg.

00:42:03.940 So this is like, you know, Buttigieg is, is like the typical, like, you know, what do you imagine, you know, the, the billionaire elites running America want, you know, he sees neoliberalism and, you know, social liberalism and paying lip service to some kind of social agenda.

00:42:19.200 That's just basically, uh, you know, more capital. 0.96

00:42:21.980 But, uh, yeah, it's, it seems like basically, uh, you know, Buttigieg is, he's the, you know, he's the fake and gay candidate. 0.96

00:42:29.740 He's the, he's the gay op. 1.00

00:42:30.860 And it seems like the, if this is true and if it is because of this app, I mean, they, they genuinely are trying to rig this election.

00:42:38.120 But I mean, even if, even if that's not true, I mean, people should really be, yeah, I mean, people should really be jumping on this and holding them to account.

00:42:45.220 Right. And, and that's the thing, you know, going forward to November, I, I, if, if your party is demoralized, which the Democrats were to, to maybe a degree that we underestimated in 2016, because they, they felt, even though Bernie was clearly not winning, there was this, you know, idea of the superdelegates.

00:43:03.220 The party was cheating, doing dirty tricks and, you know, giving answers, uh, uh, ahead of time to Hillary from CNN and all this kind of stuff.

00:43:13.260 And the party actually was demoralized and you, it's hard to win when you're demoralized.

00:43:18.320 You need to be more, I kind of think this might help Bernie though, because first of all, it's shades of 2016.

00:43:24.340 And there was, you know, there was a feeling that Hillary kind of robbed it from Bernie.

00:43:27.520 And now it's like, well, look, it's happening again.

00:43:29.680 And so suddenly there's going to be this split between people that want anyone except Bernie and Bernie, you know, it's going to be Bernie versus everyone else.

00:43:37.780 I feel like it could galvanize a lot of support behind them.

00:43:40.720 I think that's true.

00:43:42.020 I think that's absolutely true.

00:43:44.700 He should run as a third party candidate.

00:43:46.420 That's what he should do if they mess around.

00:43:48.700 I mean, why not?

00:43:49.700 Well, I'm curious to hear what you think.

00:43:51.840 I'm curious to hear what you think of Mike Bloomberg.

00:43:54.200 Like he must be watching this weekly, you know, because look how bad it's making all, you know, the set up.

00:43:59.240 Mike Bloomberg is just hedging on multiple sides.

00:44:02.660 So Mike Bloomberg, you know, immediately is hedging against Bernie.

00:44:07.120 He's basically representing.

00:44:08.520 I mean, he was a Republican as of two years ago or something or an independent.

00:44:12.760 He was he ran as a Republican for mayor of New York and he's hedging on all these sides.

00:44:17.100 So he's basically saying he's he's he's coming in now and he actually is gaining support because he's poured tens of millions.

00:44:24.140 I even heard 100 million already into his campaign, which is, of course, chump change for I saw I saw 200 million.

00:44:30.520 200 million.

00:44:31.440 OK, that's a lot of money.

00:44:33.020 I mean, you can buy support by just flooding normies with Facebook ads and getting your name out there.

00:44:39.420 So he's he's hedging against Bernie because Bernie, even though Bernie might have a hard time getting his agenda enacted, you know, just the threat of it is is real to the billionaire class.

00:44:51.840 And then I think he might do third party.

00:44:54.700 He's claimed that he'll support any Democrat against Trump.

00:44:57.340 So he's but he might, you know, who knows what he'll do.

00:45:01.020 And so he's kind of hedging against Trump as well by taking away the kind of suburban Republican vote.

00:45:06.820 So he's just this factor in there kind of taking three percent on each side.

00:45:13.140 Isn't this another thing that could actually help Bernie?

00:45:15.240 Because, you know, supposedly pretty much all of Bloomberg support are people that when they're polled would otherwise support Biden.

00:45:22.320 So he's he's kind of just taking support from these moderate candidates, which is, you know, even more of a vote proportionally for Bernie.

00:45:29.400 Yeah, there's no question, because I think the elite view Biden as a botched campaign, even though he'll do one, you know, snap, he'll do one gaffe after another.

00:45:41.300 He doesn't really collapse in the polls.

00:45:43.740 I mean, his eyes were literally bleeding on stage.

00:45:47.160 He says all this kind of quasi racist.

00:45:49.760 I mean, it was normal, like in the 90s.

00:45:53.000 It's now viewed as, you know, unacceptable.

00:45:55.720 He'll just start like roboting and just saying random syllables that don't connect together.

00:46:02.040 He'll tell stories about getting in fights with blacks and swimming pools during the age of segregation.

00:46:07.700 I mean, he they view this as like, oh, my God, this guy is just out of control.

00:46:13.760 Whereas Hillary was like, you know, disciplined as all get out. 0.99

00:46:18.440 I mean, she she never had she doesn't have gaffes.

00:46:21.260 I mean, she just you know, she keeps going.

00:46:24.200 But Biden, I think they view him as just a botched candidate as uninspiring and a disaster.

00:46:29.740 And we better have someone waiting in the wings to pick up the support. 0.59

00:46:33.320 And, you know, again, if Biden really goes down in flames, you know, we might be back where we were in 2016 with a lot of superdelegates saying and they have a little bit less power this time because there are some internal reforms with the superdelegates basically saying, like, we've got to beat Trump.

00:46:49.820 We've got to win. We've just got to flip over and just choose a candidate, which is, again, going back to the way, you know, pre primaries, the way politics was, which is that party bosses and party members chose candidates and they put them up in an election.

00:47:05.420 We're kind of headed back in that direction.

00:47:08.300 So, like, when, like, is Bloomberg going to contest any of these primaries or when is he going to enter into this or what's his plan?

00:47:16.640 Well, he's in them.

00:47:17.520 I mean, he's, you know, Steyer and Bloomberg.

00:47:20.360 He was he wasn't in the Iowa caucus, was he?

00:47:23.180 I think you could conceivably have voted for him, but he was not seriously contesting Iowa and he's not been in the debates.

00:47:30.880 So he's going to be in the next debate.

00:47:32.400 So he's kind of tactically focusing on them.

00:47:33.340 Yeah. But yeah, he is absolutely a candidate, you know, for Democrats.

00:47:39.080 He seems to be just focusing everything on attacking Trump.

00:47:42.480 Like, you know, he ran a Super Bowl out on Trump.

00:47:44.920 So he seems to be kind of ignoring the politics of the, you know, intra Democrat thing and just kind of trying to present himself as the most viable candidate to beat Trump, which is an interesting strategy.

00:47:58.240 Yeah.

00:47:58.420 Yeah.

00:48:00.320 Yeah.

00:48:01.860 So I agree.

00:48:03.080 I think basically there's a there's a civil war in the Democratic Party.

00:48:07.320 And I think, you know, this snafu in Iowa is will ultimately galvanize the Bernie bros.

00:48:15.400 But whether they can really take the party in their direction is questionable because you've got, you know, the institution is not behind Bernie.

00:48:25.140 They kind of want to use Bernie, but they ultimately don't want him to be their candidate.

00:48:30.720 That they are going to fight against him.

00:48:32.620 And then you've just got billionaires just spend, you know, 200 million.

00:48:36.280 I mean, I can't imagine 200 million in my checking account.

00:48:40.860 That's just insane for Bloomberg.

00:48:43.160 This is just, you know, it's just chump change. 0.99

00:48:45.260 He's not going to even notice it.

00:48:46.260 And he can just play games with politics.

00:48:49.500 So it's, you know, it's going to be interesting.

00:48:51.540 But again, I don't I don't know if a demoralized, fractured civil war party can.

00:48:57.080 There's no chance of Bloomberg running as a third party candidate, is there?

00:49:00.580 He claims that he won't do it, but he claims that he will support the Democrat against Trump and he'll start pouring money into that Democrat.

00:49:08.860 But who knows?

00:49:10.700 I mean, he's already playing these weird hedging.

00:49:14.380 You know, I mean, he's like a Wall Street guy.

00:49:15.720 It's like this, you know, a good hedge funder.

00:49:18.440 You know, you make bets, but then you kind of make the counter bet as well.

00:49:22.400 And, you know, just in case it goes wrong.

00:49:24.520 And that's what he seems to be doing.

00:49:25.920 So I have no idea.

00:49:28.400 I mean, it's just it's going to play out and, you know, it's going to be pretty interesting.

00:49:34.100 And there's going to be a lot of anger if, you know, Bloomberg is the candidate in the summer at the DNC.

00:49:43.240 I mean, there is going to be serious anger and they're going to point to Iowa as you just stole this election from us.

00:49:50.560 You know, what do you you know, this is just totally sinister.

00:49:54.080 You took it from us.

00:49:55.540 And it's interesting.

00:49:58.760 Buttigieg is genuinely the one candidate that would have no chance of beating Trump.

00:50:05.180 Like there's no way he's ever going to be president, surely.

00:50:08.880 I think so.

00:50:11.640 Yeah. 0.86

00:50:12.380 I mean, a Buttigieg-Trump matchup people, you know, you're going to get the goofballs who vote for Buttigieg.

00:50:18.580 But, yeah, I think that that would change, although I don't know.

00:50:23.460 I mean, again, the big demographic change in elections is white suburbia moving Democratic and suburbia in general going Democratic, which is definitely not the dynamic 50 years ago or even even quite 10 years ago.

00:50:41.380 I mean, the 2010 GOP won 65 percent of the white vote.

00:50:48.620 They're now pushing down to 55 percent of the white vote and less in the Trump era.

00:50:54.160 And so all of these, you know, kind of annoying, professional, upper middle class, white suburban types might actually go for Buttigieg and he could do it.

00:51:05.640 But, you know, just the optics of it, no red-blooded American is going to vote for Pete Buttigieg.

00:51:12.720 I don't get why Bernie Sanders doesn't just double down and just, you know, do a Trump 2016 on it and really present himself as anti-establishment, as, you know, the whole Democratic Party apparatus out to stop him.

00:51:24.540 I mean, you know, in, you know, pre-2016 he was, yeah, pre-2016 he was speaking out against open borders.

00:51:31.900 You know, that's a Koch brothers policy, a famous quote.

00:51:34.200 And he wasn't, he's never seemed like his heritage is in all this woke capital stuff.

00:51:39.280 But yet in the last few years he's kind of aligned with, you know, the squad and the Green New Deal stuff.

00:51:43.820 And I mean, I don't know, I mean, if he was, if you're talking an election in 2016, surely he could win some of those swing states more focusing on the kind of economic populism that Trump used in 2016 than bringing all this identity politics stuff into it.

00:52:00.200 But yet he seems to, he seems to want to moderate between both positions and kind of synthesize them, but it doesn't seem like that's going to help him.

00:52:06.500 Unquestionably. I mean, I, I think he could absolutely, you know, maybe not win as a third party, but as a, you know, a third party candidate winning the Midwest and some of the Northeast, that, that would be huge.

00:52:20.400 And, you know, he would, he, he would be a kingmaker in the election.

00:52:24.300 But again, Bernie's, he, he's, he's, you know, he, he's a serious and authentic guy, but then he never really wants to go after the people on top.

00:52:34.020 I mean, in, I think it was 2017 or 18, Bernie did this unity tour with the democratic party and standing on stage with billionaires.

00:52:42.360 And I, I just, he, he doesn't, he doesn't really want to go after them viciously.

00:52:47.160 He didn't go after Elizabeth Warren viciously, even though she implied that he was a, you know, raging misogynist.

00:52:54.340 Uh, so I, I don't know, but he, that would be actually really fascinating if he did that and he certainly could do it.

00:53:04.020 Yeah. I mean, he, he has that same populist energy, you know, you get that, you get that feeling of him riding the wave like Trump was in 2016, but there does always seem to be that hesitancy there that definitely was never there with Trump.

00:53:16.440 There's not that same opportunism to, to capitalize on it and ride that wave, which I've never, I've never understood about him.

00:53:23.660 This, um, Elizabeth Warren, is he queer? 0.99

00:53:27.460 I don't think we should make these suggestions about a native American. 0.86

00:53:35.500 I mean, that's, that sounds like a queer on the wild. 1.00

00:53:39.520 I think his, his wife might be a lesbian. 1.00

00:53:43.260 It's his wife. 0.99

00:53:44.280 By looking at her. Yeah. Yeah.

00:53:46.080 I'm worried.

00:53:48.360 Oh, well, maybe he could be a part time.

00:53:51.100 That's a good one.

00:54:00.480 Uh, Mitt Romney, Mitt Romney has voted to impeach Mr. Trump.

00:54:05.060 Ah, that just happened.

00:54:08.060 Yeah.

00:54:09.180 That's a bit much, isn't it?

00:54:10.820 That is a bit rude.

00:54:11.460 I think really they should, they should gather around.

00:54:14.320 They should be in a situation like this, but he doesn't have to get two thirds, two thirds.

00:54:17.980 And it's not, it's not a simple majority.

00:54:20.000 It's not a simple majority.

00:54:21.120 It's a simple majority to impeach, two thirds to convict.

00:54:23.620 So he's, he's going to be.

00:54:25.520 Yeah.

00:54:26.060 Okay.

00:54:26.560 Mitt Romney.

00:54:27.020 So it's just.

00:54:27.840 Signaling.

00:54:28.340 Very, it's virtue signaling nonsense.

00:54:30.820 Yeah.

00:54:31.200 Gotcha.

00:54:32.640 Fair enough.

00:54:33.580 Just wonderful.

00:54:34.140 Thank you.

00:54:41.460 Have you heard of Angela Merkel?

00:54:49.140 Yes.

00:54:49.960 Is he a queer? 1.00

00:54:53.440 Well, he looks like a queer, doesn't he? 1.00

00:54:55.100 Well, he looks like a queer. 1.00

00:54:56.100 He's wearing a dress. 0.98

00:54:57.120 He sounds like a queer on the wireless. 1.00

00:54:58.840 Oh, he sounds like a queer on the wireless. 1.00

00:55:00.440 Well, he looks like a queer on the wireless. 1.00

00:55:01.820 He sounds like a queer on the wireless. 1.00

00:55:02.880 I should think he's probably a queer. 1.00

00:55:04.180 Yes, if he looks like a queer in a dress and he sounds like a queer on the wireless, 0.99

00:55:06.980 he's probably a queer. 0.99

00:55:08.040 Probably a queer? 1.00

00:55:08.800 Probably a queer. 1.00

00:55:09.640 Probably a queer. 1.00

00:55:11.000 If it's possible to sound like a queer on the wireless, 0.98

00:55:13.460 remember I'm speaking German.

00:55:14.860 Oh, that's a very good point, yes.

00:55:17.220 Have you heard of Pete Buttigieg?

00:55:20.360 Well, yes, I have.

00:55:22.740 Is he a queer? 1.00

00:55:24.980 Well, he looks like a queer. 1.00

00:55:26.960 He does look like a queer. 1.00

00:55:30.260 And he sounds like a queer on the wireless. 1.00

00:55:32.780 He does sound like a queer on the wireless. 1.00

00:55:36.000 And he's left-handed like a queer. 1.00

00:55:37.880 He's short like a queer. 1.00

00:55:39.160 He has an arts degree like a queer. 1.00

00:55:41.060 He's religious like a queer. 1.00

00:55:42.580 He likes wearing military uniforms like a queer. 1.00

00:55:44.720 And he has IQ. 0.97

00:55:46.340 High IQ, like a queer. 1.00

00:55:48.840 Well, then I should think he's probably a queer. 1.00

00:55:51.700 Probably is a queer. 1.00

00:55:53.020 Looks like a queer. 1.00

00:55:54.200 Sounds like a queer on the wireless. 1.00

00:55:55.820 Short like a queer. 1.00

00:55:56.780 Let's handle like a queer. 1.00

00:55:57.960 Arts degree like a queer. 1.00
