Real Coffee with Scott Adams - Episode 1092 Scott Adams： Brain-Dead Biden's Mask Mandate, UAE-Israel Peace Deal, Reparations Completed, Gun Confiscation

00:00:00.000 Hey everybody, come on in.

00:00:14.820 Today, with a little bit less swearing, probably a lot less,

00:00:19.440 I'm going to try as hard as I can to make this G-rated.

00:00:24.700 I'm going to do what I can.

00:00:25.940 But it's a political season, and it gets harder every day.

00:00:29.700 It really does.

00:00:31.600 But you know what makes the world easier and better in every possible dimension?

00:00:36.240 Yeah, it's a simultaneous sip, and you don't need much to participate.

00:00:40.120 Not much at all.

00:00:41.480 All you need is a cup or mug or glass or tank or chalice or stein,

00:00:45.200 a canteen jug or flask, a vessel of any kind.

00:00:49.320 Fill it with your favorite liquid. I like coffee.

00:00:52.020 And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure, the dopamine hit of the day,

00:00:57.400 the thing that makes everything better, including the election.

00:01:02.840 Go.

00:01:07.060 Yes, I can feel my R0 coming up.

00:01:13.460 Well, I'd like to thank one of my viewers here, Gail, if you're watching.

00:01:20.660 Thank you for the excellent pillow, which you can see over my back.

00:01:25.520 It's quite nice. Thank you for that.

00:01:29.640 Well, is this the first election in which you could say the following is true?

00:01:34.160 We don't know exactly who we're voting for, and you might not know on election day.

00:01:41.140 Have you ever had an election for president in which you thought maybe you're voting for Biden,

00:01:47.920 but maybe it's more Kamala and maybe somebody else is coming onto the ticket

00:01:52.120 and you don't really even know who you're voting for.

00:01:55.460 So you don't know when the voting starts because of this mail-in thing.

00:01:59.440 It's going to be confusing.

00:02:00.920 You won't know when it starts.

00:02:02.280 You won't know exactly who's running.

00:02:05.420 It's a weird year like that.

00:02:07.860 You won't know when the voting will be complete.

00:02:12.720 You won't know if the voting will be rigged.

00:02:16.500 You won't know if China or Russia influenced the election more than Great Britain.

00:02:23.760 And you don't know anything.

00:02:28.460 Basically, this is the first election in which we don't even have a fighting chance of being credible.

00:02:36.640 What happens?

00:02:38.540 This will be the first time we've had an election that we know in advance will be questioned.

00:02:44.400 Has that ever happened before?

00:02:45.880 And we also know that no matter who wins, the other side will say it's rigged.

00:02:53.040 There isn't any way to get around that, is there?

00:02:56.040 Can you see any way that you could get around the country believing the result was rigged?

00:03:01.440 I can only think of one way.

00:03:05.100 There is exactly one way to save the republic.

00:03:08.680 Two ways, if you count the Second Amendment. 0.90

00:03:12.780 Yeah, two ways.

00:03:13.500 The first way is for a Trump landslide of such proportion that even if you assumed something went wrong,

00:03:23.180 even if you assumed voter suppression, even if you assumed Russian collusion,

00:03:27.940 even if you assumed Chinese interference, even if you assumed it all,

00:03:33.020 it's still obvious who won't.

00:03:36.260 What are our chances?

00:03:37.460 Well, at the moment, the slaughter meter is just pinned at 100%.

00:03:42.120 But things change, right?

00:03:44.160 There'll be more surprises between now and Election Day.

00:03:47.840 But if things go the way they're going,

00:03:50.920 what it looks like is that every few days,

00:03:54.320 President Trump is going to announce a historic accomplishment.

00:04:00.540 That's right.

00:04:01.800 So like today, or yesterday.

00:04:05.260 So here was how the matchup went yesterday.

00:04:09.280 So yesterday, President Trump surprisingly announced that the U.S. had brokered a deal.

00:04:16.380 And I think people are going to agree that it took a Trump to get this done.

00:04:21.600 He brokered a deal for, you know, some peace deal between UAE and Israel.

00:04:26.960 And then hinted that there might be several more countries in the region who might want to get on board.

00:04:32.940 And, you know, teased some of them, you know, coming up.

00:04:37.560 Now, that's a pretty big deal.

00:04:41.180 Both the Washington Post and the New York Times acknowledged it was,

00:04:45.760 in President Trump's own words, and they both used the same word, huge.

00:04:52.000 I mean, think about it.

00:04:53.520 The biggest critics of the president just said,

00:04:56.040 that's, okay, I got nothing.

00:04:58.800 That's huge.

00:05:00.720 That's huge.

00:05:03.200 Now, so that's what the president did.

00:05:06.960 Historic, seemingly impossible peace deal that might be the beginning of something even bigger.

00:05:12.860 Let's see what Joe Biden did.

00:05:16.560 Well, what Joe Biden did was take the president's current mask policy

00:05:21.560 and reworded it into angry dementia patient language.

00:05:26.940 Do you know how that goes?

00:05:28.260 Let me do an example.

00:05:30.640 Here would be a person saying,

00:05:34.000 could you pass me a napkin?

00:05:36.180 So this would be, let's say, normal language or Trump language.

00:05:39.040 Hey, could you, would you mind passing me a napkin?

00:05:42.500 Oh, thank you.

00:05:43.260 Thank you for the napkin.

00:05:44.640 Now, if you were to reword that into angry dementia patient,

00:05:48.440 sort of the Joe Biden way,

00:05:50.580 that same thing would turn into,

00:05:52.740 where's the napkins?

00:05:56.400 No napkins?

00:05:58.000 What's wrong with the leadership?

00:05:59.580 There's no napkins here.

00:06:00.620 Napkins, please.

00:06:01.600 Can somebody give me some napkins?

00:06:05.500 Come on.

00:06:06.400 Come on, man.

00:06:07.560 Give me some napkins.

00:06:09.760 So even though the content was the same,

00:06:13.500 you have to reword that.

00:06:15.640 So here's what President Trump,

00:06:19.540 his policy on masks.

00:06:22.360 So his policy is that masks are helpful

00:06:25.400 and you should wear one

00:06:26.820 in situations where you're going to be around other people.

00:06:30.880 So he recommends it quite vigorously

00:06:34.140 and then says that it's up to the states.

00:06:37.660 So that's the Trump policy.

00:06:39.960 Highly recommended when it makes sense

00:06:42.280 up to the states.

00:06:44.500 Here's the Joe Biden angry dementia version of this.

00:06:49.980 Got to be mandated.

00:06:51.540 Mandated.

00:06:52.080 We need some leadership.

00:06:53.300 Where's the leadership?

00:06:54.300 Mandated.

00:06:55.500 But the states can decide.

00:06:57.460 Now, I'm no constitutional scholar.

00:07:03.300 But let me break this down for you

00:07:06.500 in the best lawyer talk I can.

00:07:10.300 Once both of you,

00:07:12.140 President Trump and Biden,

00:07:13.720 have decided that it's up to the states

00:07:16.900 and also decided that they think masks are helpful.

00:07:21.340 That's really the end of it.

00:07:24.340 Because once you throw in the states get to decide on their own,

00:07:30.700 once you put that in there,

00:07:32.400 your opinion of whether they should be mandated

00:07:34.700 isn't really important, is it?

00:07:38.180 Yeah.

00:07:40.300 Biden thinks they should be mandated.

00:07:42.640 How much does that matter?

00:07:45.060 Turns out it doesn't.

00:07:47.140 Because the part about the states deciding

00:07:49.360 is the operative part,

00:07:52.140 the active ingredient.

00:07:53.660 The other stuff is the, you know,

00:07:57.160 that's the sugar and the stuff that doesn't matter.

00:08:00.040 All right?

00:08:01.500 So summarizing again,

00:08:03.900 the president accomplished an historic agreement

00:08:06.780 that almost nobody would have predicted

00:08:09.900 and it seemed impossible.

00:08:12.160 Might be the beginning of something tremendous.

00:08:15.240 One of the best accomplishments of all time.

00:08:17.920 His name has already been discussed

00:08:20.100 in terms of the Nobel Peace Prize.

00:08:22.480 So that was the president's day yesterday.

00:08:25.740 And then Joe Biden had that

00:08:27.360 angry dementia patient rewording of mask policy.

00:08:33.260 So pretty good.

00:08:36.680 Pretty good, too, you know.

00:08:40.660 I think that's what it's going to look like

00:08:42.720 all the way to election day.

00:08:44.640 I think you're going to see a lot more of this.

00:08:47.460 The president announcing an executive order

00:08:50.120 lowering pharmaceutical costs.

00:08:53.740 It's going to be one thing after another

00:08:55.600 until you're so sick of

00:08:57.640 Joe Biden's angry dementia talk

00:09:01.820 that it just won't even look like a close decision.

00:09:05.440 All right.

00:09:07.020 Let's talk about this

00:09:08.320 UAE deal.

00:09:10.660 Now, I thought I was going to come on this morning

00:09:13.120 and give you this insight.

00:09:16.540 And then I read,

00:09:17.600 it was in the New York Times,

00:09:20.560 I think it was.

00:09:21.940 I read that somebody was on to me,

00:09:24.520 almost like they read my material.

00:09:28.220 Now, I'm going to tell you

00:09:30.540 what I read from experts

00:09:32.900 who were quoted in the New York Times.

00:09:35.600 I wish I had it with me.

00:09:36.540 I don't have the expert's name.

00:09:37.640 But ask yourself if that sounded like me.

00:09:42.860 And it was this,

00:09:44.420 that the president had to manage

00:09:46.020 to create an asset out of nothing

00:09:48.520 with Netanyahu and Israel,

00:09:51.460 that collectively they had created

00:09:53.500 an asset out of nothing.

00:09:55.820 And the asset was,

00:09:57.540 well, Israel has made an offer 0.93

00:09:59.360 to the Palestinians

00:10:00.140 to divide up the land a certain way.

00:10:02.860 Palestinians rejected it completely.

00:10:04.900 So Israel said,

00:10:07.300 well, we don't really need your approval.

00:10:10.380 So Israel said,

00:10:11.540 all right,

00:10:12.140 if you don't want to work on a deal

00:10:13.880 or negotiate,

00:10:14.980 you don't need to.

00:10:16.620 We'll just take the land

00:10:17.720 we said we were going to take.

00:10:19.140 We'll just annex it.

00:10:20.760 So see you later.

00:10:22.140 Anytime you want to talk,

00:10:23.320 we'll be here.

00:10:24.260 But we're just going to take this land.

00:10:26.260 That's the end of it.

00:10:27.520 No peace deal is necessary.

00:10:29.080 I mean, it would be great.

00:10:30.420 It'd be great to have a peace deal.

00:10:32.680 But it's not necessary.

00:10:34.900 Now, it works best

00:10:37.360 if you've created a pattern.

00:10:40.240 And here's the pattern

00:10:41.240 that Israel,

00:10:42.560 with the United States especially,

00:10:44.380 had created.

00:10:45.640 And it looks like this.

00:10:47.400 Can we move that embassy

00:10:48.980 to Jerusalem?

00:10:51.160 No, no, it's impossible.

00:10:53.320 Don't do it.

00:10:54.020 There'll be war in the Middle East. 0.99

00:10:55.620 Don't do it.

00:10:56.620 Oh, you did it.

00:10:57.960 Okay, there were some protests.

00:11:00.420 It wasn't as bad as we thought.

00:11:01.900 Okay, but don't do anything else.

00:11:04.640 Because you're really, really pushing it now.

00:11:08.300 So how about that Golan Heights?

00:11:10.300 We'll just make that part of Israel. 0.98

00:11:13.560 Everybody said,

00:11:14.300 no, no, don't do that.

00:11:15.560 Don't do that.

00:11:16.100 You did the embassy thing.

00:11:17.240 You can't go that far.

00:11:18.240 That's way too far.

00:11:19.180 Don't do it.

00:11:20.240 Worked out fine.

00:11:22.600 No problem.

00:11:25.140 How about, gosh,

00:11:27.620 if you knew where Hezbollah

00:11:29.520 was keeping their weapons and stuff,

00:11:32.700 you couldn't just blow them up

00:11:36.120 wherever they are.

00:11:38.480 I don't know that that's happening,

00:11:39.920 but a lot of Hezbollah assets

00:11:41.800 seem to be blowing up lately.

00:11:44.320 It doesn't seem to be a problem.

00:11:46.180 You know, you certainly couldn't kill

00:11:49.320 the top Iranian general

00:11:51.660 who was behind all the terrorism

00:11:53.200 in the Middle East,

00:11:54.100 or at least most of it.

00:11:55.260 You couldn't just kill him.

00:11:57.460 I mean, he's like the top guy in Iran,

00:11:59.900 if you think about it.

00:12:00.620 The guy who owns the guns

00:12:01.540 is really the top guy.

00:12:03.000 You can't just assassinate their top general.

00:12:06.740 But then we did.

00:12:08.820 And then we waited for the end of the world.

00:12:11.640 And there were protests

00:12:14.260 and some rockets fired.

00:12:16.240 But people were hurt, tragically.

00:12:19.480 But it wasn't the end of the world.

00:12:21.740 So now that you've created this pattern,

00:12:24.560 and what is the pattern?

00:12:26.340 The pattern is,

00:12:27.760 we're going to take whatever we want

00:12:29.500 because you're not going to negotiate anyway.

00:12:32.540 And we're never going to stop.

00:12:34.780 How many times have I told you

00:12:36.160 that it doesn't matter where you are.

00:12:39.100 It matters where everybody thinks you're going.

00:12:42.460 If it looks like you're moving somewhere,

00:12:44.580 that gets people's attention.

00:12:47.160 It doesn't matter where you are.

00:12:48.480 It matters where you're going.

00:12:50.080 And so Israel and the United States 0.88

00:12:51.920 had created this very clear pattern

00:12:54.180 of where they were going is

00:12:56.240 they're going to take what they wanted.

00:12:58.080 We're just going to take what we wanted

00:12:59.840 because collectively the other side,

00:13:04.080 if you will,

00:13:04.980 anybody who would be opposing

00:13:06.440 any of these things,

00:13:07.460 it's different people at different places.

00:13:10.140 But none of them were powerful enough

00:13:12.400 to stop it.

00:13:13.760 It was just going to be one thing after another.

00:13:16.060 Just rolling it up

00:13:17.200 until it was just a de facto

00:13:18.760 Israel got everything it wanted. 0.96

00:13:22.400 So that creates

00:13:23.960 the opportunity

00:13:25.520 for somebody like the UAE

00:13:28.780 to say,

00:13:30.580 all right,

00:13:30.980 maybe we'll do a peace deal,

00:13:32.460 but you've got to give us something.

00:13:33.540 It's got to look like

00:13:35.640 we've got something important.

00:13:38.080 And so what does Israel

00:13:39.220 and the United States offer them?

00:13:41.700 The thing that didn't exist.

00:13:43.900 They actually created

00:13:45.240 an asset out of nothing,

00:13:46.760 which is the intention

00:13:48.220 to take this territory

00:13:49.940 and annex it completely

00:13:51.420 instead of just controlling it.

00:13:53.340 They were going to annex it.

00:13:54.660 But that was conceptual.

00:13:56.880 It was in the future.

00:13:59.260 Maybe it wouldn't have happened.

00:14:00.820 I don't know.

00:14:02.980 And so they gave up

00:14:04.120 the thing that didn't exist.

00:14:06.260 How many times have I told you

00:14:07.980 that President Trump's,

00:14:10.000 it's almost a signature

00:14:11.420 negotiating style.

00:14:13.680 He'll create an asset

00:14:14.940 mentally

00:14:15.760 and then use that mental asset

00:14:18.240 to negotiate with.

00:14:20.400 When you see it,

00:14:21.360 you know that's a,

00:14:22.520 like that's straight out

00:14:23.520 of the Trump playbook.

00:14:25.140 Create an imaginary asset

00:14:26.720 and then trade it

00:14:28.000 for something that's real.

00:14:29.860 And that's just what they did.

00:14:31.640 Now, if you just heard me saying it,

00:14:34.440 it wouldn't mean as much.

00:14:35.940 But, you know, like I said,

00:14:38.040 people who actually know

00:14:38.920 what they're talking about

00:14:39.840 said the same thing.

00:14:41.600 But doesn't that sound like me?

00:14:44.420 Talking about creating

00:14:45.520 an imaginary asset

00:14:46.660 and picking up their free money

00:14:48.480 because it was free money.

00:14:50.440 Now, you've also heard me

00:14:51.940 talk about the fake because.

00:14:55.180 The fake because

00:14:56.560 is in the,

00:14:58.220 sort of the persuasion domain.

00:15:01.520 It means that somebody

00:15:02.460 wants to do something anyway,

00:15:04.820 but they need a reason.

00:15:07.040 Because people make up their minds

00:15:08.620 before they give you reasons

00:15:09.900 or even before they know reasons sometimes.

00:15:12.180 But in the case of the Middle East,

00:15:13.860 don't you think the UAE

00:15:15.180 wanted a deal?

00:15:17.360 They probably wanted a deal.

00:15:19.020 It looks like they've been talking

00:15:20.040 to Israel for 10 years privately.

00:15:22.840 So probably they just wanted a deal.

00:15:25.320 But could the UAE have just said,

00:15:27.680 hey, you know what?

00:15:28.860 We just want a deal.

00:15:30.400 So, you know, you guys do what you want,

00:15:33.160 but we're going to make a deal with Israel.

00:15:35.160 How would that look?

00:15:37.320 It would look weak, wouldn't it?

00:15:40.020 Because it would look like

00:15:40.860 they just said, all right,

00:15:42.360 we'll give you what you want.

00:15:43.600 We'll give you a peace deal.

00:15:44.740 But instead,

00:15:46.820 the UAE gets to use the fake because.

00:15:50.240 They get to say,

00:15:51.640 this wasn't for nothing.

00:15:52.800 Look what we did.

00:15:54.060 We stopped annexation

00:15:55.700 of these lands that are in dispute

00:15:58.240 with the Palestinians and Israel.

00:16:00.760 That's big.

00:16:01.700 We're like a leader in the Middle East now.

00:16:04.140 Because we've done

00:16:04.800 one of the most important things.

00:16:06.480 There's nobody else in the Middle East 1.00

00:16:08.000 who got Israel to concede

00:16:09.860 something like that recently.

00:16:11.340 So the UAE gets this fake because

00:16:14.720 to do the thing

00:16:16.040 that they wanted to do anyway.

00:16:17.940 What did the UAE get?

00:16:19.420 Not really anything.

00:16:21.580 This fake asset was generated

00:16:23.480 and they accepted the fake asset

00:16:26.100 which they can claim credit for.

00:16:29.480 Somebody says Biden took credit.

00:16:32.240 I don't think that happened,

00:16:34.060 but maybe it did.

00:16:36.580 So, what would you say now

00:16:39.240 about President Trump's

00:16:41.320 deal-making ability?

00:16:43.200 And then on top of that,

00:16:44.440 what would you say about

00:16:45.320 Jared Kushner's ability

00:16:46.920 to implement?

00:16:50.880 It's looking pretty good, isn't it?

00:16:53.180 It's looking pretty good.

00:16:55.060 And you have to see

00:16:55.960 the whole Middle East

00:16:58.280 as a whole package

00:16:59.580 to see how brilliant

00:17:00.560 this was all set up.

00:17:02.700 You've heard Trump use the phrase

00:17:05.220 in the art of the deal

00:17:06.220 and other times

00:17:07.020 about setting the table.

00:17:09.240 The idea is that

00:17:10.300 by the time you get

00:17:11.620 to the negotiation,

00:17:13.120 if you've done everything else right,

00:17:15.320 the negotiation is almost done.

00:17:17.620 So, in other words,

00:17:18.680 you can be done

00:17:20.040 with the negotiation

00:17:20.780 before you start

00:17:21.820 if you set the table so well

00:17:24.360 that it can only go one way.

00:17:27.200 You've created a situation

00:17:28.580 where you know

00:17:29.840 where it's going to go.

00:17:30.940 Now you just have to

00:17:31.800 get in the same room

00:17:32.980 and say,

00:17:33.420 all right, what's the deal?

00:17:34.300 There it is.

00:17:35.260 It was the only way

00:17:35.980 it could have gone.

00:17:37.200 And the biggest part

00:17:38.860 of this, I would say,

00:17:40.600 is pulling out of the Iran deal,

00:17:43.040 which now looks pretty smart,

00:17:45.360 doesn't it?

00:17:46.520 Now, a lot of people

00:17:47.720 thought it was smart

00:17:48.420 on day one.

00:17:49.560 I was more in the camp of,

00:17:51.580 what the hell do I know?

00:17:53.520 You know,

00:17:53.840 I would love to say

00:17:54.680 I'm so smart

00:17:55.500 that I could tell

00:17:57.020 the difference

00:17:57.700 between it's a good thing

00:17:59.920 to get out of the Iran deal

00:18:01.240 or it's a good thing

00:18:02.760 to stay in.

00:18:03.880 If you think

00:18:04.800 you're smart enough

00:18:05.600 to know the difference,

00:18:07.280 congratulations.

00:18:08.400 I'm definitely not smart enough

00:18:10.060 to know with all

00:18:11.620 of the variables in play

00:18:12.840 and the psychology

00:18:13.860 and the different countries

00:18:15.100 and the histories

00:18:16.240 and who knows

00:18:17.420 what's coming in the future.

00:18:19.160 I'm not so sure

00:18:20.280 I could have known

00:18:21.220 what was the better path

00:18:23.220 and maybe we still don't

00:18:24.180 because there could be surprises.

00:18:26.200 But,

00:18:26.840 as of today's perspective,

00:18:28.760 looking at,

00:18:31.140 you know,

00:18:31.580 what we're seeing right now,

00:18:33.560 it looks like

00:18:34.220 pulling out of the Iran deal

00:18:35.460 possibly one of the most

00:18:38.300 baller,

00:18:40.180 leader,

00:18:41.420 successful,

00:18:42.540 smart things

00:18:43.520 any leader ever did.

00:18:46.780 I mean,

00:18:47.120 it's starting to look that way.

00:18:48.640 It's not the end of the game.

00:18:50.480 And,

00:18:50.860 you know,

00:18:51.200 I wasn't really

00:18:52.080 pounding any drums

00:18:53.760 about getting out of that deal

00:18:55.200 or staying in that deal

00:18:56.180 because it's just sort of

00:18:57.200 a little bit above my pay grade.

00:18:58.760 A little bit.

00:19:00.120 Just slightly above my pay grade.

00:19:02.500 So,

00:19:02.780 I was sort of an observer on that.

00:19:05.380 But,

00:19:05.880 when you see the,

00:19:06.820 this peace deal

00:19:08.140 and you see others

00:19:09.200 looking in line,

00:19:10.060 you have to say to yourself,

00:19:11.400 what is the environment

00:19:12.680 which would cause that?

00:19:15.160 And the environment

00:19:16.040 which would cause it

00:19:17.140 is Iran is off the table 1.00

00:19:18.720 as,

00:19:19.940 as a power.

00:19:21.520 I think Trump

00:19:22.640 just took Iran 0.98

00:19:23.640 out of the equation

00:19:24.720 in terms of the other countries

00:19:26.960 worrying about

00:19:27.720 whether Iran

00:19:28.420 would get mad at them

00:19:29.300 for making a deal.

00:19:30.980 Because,

00:19:31.660 I don't know enough

00:19:32.500 about the area

00:19:33.060 to know if,

00:19:33.920 the region

00:19:34.760 to know if this is a thing.

00:19:36.520 But I think it's a thing.

00:19:37.940 Maybe somebody

00:19:38.460 who knows more

00:19:39.100 can correct me.

00:19:40.980 Wouldn't

00:19:41.380 each country

00:19:42.320 in the area

00:19:42.960 under normal,

00:19:45.200 let's say,

00:19:45.600 five years ago

00:19:46.380 situation,

00:19:47.180 wouldn't they be

00:19:47.680 a little worried

00:19:48.360 about Iran

00:19:49.220 and maybe Iran

00:19:51.280 doing something bad

00:19:53.360 to them

00:19:53.820 if they made

00:19:54.580 a deal

00:19:54.860 with Israel?

00:19:55.600 Is that a thing?

00:19:56.740 I don't know

00:19:57.120 if that's a thing

00:19:57.720 but it feels

00:19:58.120 like it would be.

00:19:59.560 But at the moment

00:20:00.100 nobody's afraid

00:20:00.760 of Israel,

00:20:01.580 I'm sorry,

00:20:02.080 nobody's afraid

00:20:02.680 of Iran

00:20:03.480 in the way

00:20:04.020 they might have been

00:20:04.720 even a few years ago

00:20:05.760 because they're so weakened.

00:20:07.580 And it looks like

00:20:08.360 Iran might just fall. 0.91

00:20:11.140 So,

00:20:11.920 in the Middle East

00:20:12.920 do leaders

00:20:14.700 follow power?

00:20:17.580 Does power

00:20:18.500 and winning

00:20:19.360 get you something?

00:20:21.720 In other words,

00:20:22.380 if you create

00:20:23.540 a history

00:20:24.260 of winning

00:20:24.900 which Israel

00:20:26.260 and the United States

00:20:27.100 have done together,

00:20:29.140 does that change minds?

00:20:31.060 Because everybody

00:20:31.540 wants to be

00:20:31.980 on the winning team,

00:20:32.820 right?

00:20:33.340 And now it's

00:20:34.100 kind of obvious

00:20:35.040 who the winning team is.

00:20:36.660 It's not Iran. 0.82

00:20:38.520 Iran is not 1.00

00:20:39.520 the winning team

00:20:40.320 over there.

00:20:41.020 And now I think

00:20:41.840 everybody sees that.

00:20:45.600 So,

00:20:46.300 I mean,

00:20:46.760 when the United States

00:20:47.920 took out their

00:20:48.580 top general

00:20:49.320 and got a

00:20:51.960 weak-to-nothing

00:20:52.980 response

00:20:53.840 and that kind of

00:20:56.000 really just opened up

00:20:56.960 the options,

00:20:58.640 didn't it?

00:20:59.700 All right,

00:21:00.080 so I'm going to say

00:21:00.860 that this is one

00:21:01.500 of the greatest

00:21:02.080 presidential achievements

00:21:04.020 so far

00:21:05.040 and very cleverly done,

00:21:06.680 very skillfully.

00:21:08.080 I mean,

00:21:08.400 this is just sort of

00:21:09.220 A-plus material.

00:21:10.480 It's hard to find

00:21:11.080 something wrong with this.

00:21:12.400 But I know that

00:21:13.080 I know that

00:21:15.140 some of the most

00:21:16.440 ridiculous

00:21:17.040 anti-Trumpers

00:21:18.460 are finding

00:21:19.140 something wrong

00:21:19.800 with it,

00:21:20.440 but it's not even

00:21:21.080 worth repeating.

00:21:22.780 Their arguments

00:21:23.520 are so stupid

00:21:24.440 that I'm not even

00:21:25.880 going to talk

00:21:26.320 about them.

00:21:26.900 They don't even

00:21:27.500 rise to the level

00:21:28.500 of being

00:21:28.980 conversation-worthy.

00:21:31.100 All right.

00:21:33.180 Jumping around

00:21:33.800 here a little bit.

00:21:34.460 So Biden and Harris,

00:21:36.160 they did their

00:21:37.700 little announcement

00:21:38.300 about the masks

00:21:39.220 and they didn't

00:21:40.420 take questions.

00:21:42.020 They didn't

00:21:42.620 take questions.

00:21:44.320 Now,

00:21:45.460 how much longer

00:21:46.520 are they going

00:21:47.000 to be able

00:21:47.300 to get away

00:21:47.780 with that?

00:21:49.220 I mean,

00:21:49.640 really?

00:21:50.940 You know,

00:21:52.300 as other people

00:21:53.300 have noted,

00:21:54.820 why change strategy

00:21:56.160 if it's working?

00:21:57.580 Well,

00:21:58.000 let me tell you

00:21:58.580 why you should

00:21:59.100 change the strategy

00:22:00.000 if it's working.

00:22:02.740 The strategy

00:22:07.300 that you use

00:22:08.240 early in a

00:22:09.020 campaign

00:22:09.560 isn't necessarily

00:22:11.400 the one that's

00:22:12.120 going to work

00:22:12.640 a month before

00:22:13.520 the election.

00:22:14.780 If it's a month

00:22:15.760 before the election

00:22:16.580 and you still

00:22:17.140 haven't heard

00:22:17.540 from Biden

00:22:18.940 or Kamala

00:22:20.340 in terms of

00:22:20.900 answering questions,

00:22:22.320 I don't know

00:22:22.880 how they could

00:22:23.300 possibly get elected,

00:22:24.360 right?

00:22:25.020 So,

00:22:25.820 yeah,

00:22:26.360 it might make sense

00:22:27.320 to stay away

00:22:28.400 from the public

00:22:28.960 for a while,

00:22:30.340 but that's not

00:22:31.620 really a sustainable

00:22:32.980 strategy if you're

00:22:34.140 talking about,

00:22:34.920 say,

00:22:35.360 one or two months

00:22:36.060 before the election

00:22:37.000 when people get

00:22:37.720 serious anyway.

00:22:39.020 I guess most

00:22:39.700 people don't

00:22:40.160 get serious

00:22:40.760 until sort of,

00:22:42.320 you know,

00:22:43.180 September-ish.

00:22:45.880 So,

00:22:46.440 they don't really

00:22:47.100 have a strategy

00:22:47.960 yet because

00:22:49.240 the one they're

00:22:50.620 using can't work

00:22:51.620 in the last two

00:22:52.400 months,

00:22:52.820 and the other

00:22:54.620 possibility where

00:22:55.520 they actually do

00:22:56.340 take questions,

00:22:57.400 well,

00:22:57.920 that would be the

00:22:58.400 end of their

00:22:58.780 campaign,

00:22:59.600 wouldn't it?

00:23:01.600 You know,

00:23:01.900 Kamala Harris

00:23:02.440 could take

00:23:02.800 questions fine,

00:23:03.580 but Biden?

00:23:05.860 It's going to

00:23:06.420 look bad.

00:23:08.000 Brain-dead Biden?

00:23:11.180 So,

00:23:12.260 what else

00:23:13.320 we got going

00:23:13.840 on here?

00:23:15.200 Oh,

00:23:15.700 we have

00:23:15.980 birtherism too

00:23:16.840 now.

00:23:17.920 So,

00:23:18.420 this is how

00:23:18.880 the fake news

00:23:19.700 has spun this.

00:23:21.720 I always tell you

00:23:23.080 that Trump

00:23:23.500 will always

00:23:24.140 leave his

00:23:24.660 options open.

00:23:26.160 It's just a

00:23:27.100 signature thing

00:23:27.840 he does,

00:23:28.600 and by the way,

00:23:29.320 you should learn

00:23:29.840 from it.

00:23:31.460 If there's

00:23:32.080 one Trump

00:23:33.780 trait which

00:23:35.440 you should

00:23:35.800 take with

00:23:36.300 you and say,

00:23:36.800 oh,

00:23:37.260 that actually,

00:23:38.200 I just want

00:23:38.760 that to be

00:23:39.200 part of what

00:23:39.820 I do from

00:23:40.320 now on,

00:23:41.140 it would be

00:23:41.720 this keeping

00:23:42.380 his options

00:23:43.000 open thing.

00:23:44.300 You know,

00:23:44.500 it's like,

00:23:45.320 what are you

00:23:46.760 going to do

00:23:47.120 with this

00:23:47.500 country?

00:23:48.220 Are you going

00:23:48.580 to bomb

00:23:48.920 them?

00:23:49.720 Keep my

00:23:50.280 options open.

00:23:51.340 What are you

00:23:51.840 going to do

00:23:52.080 about this?

00:23:53.460 I'll tell you

00:23:54.160 later.

00:23:55.020 Always keep

00:23:55.620 the options

00:23:56.080 open.

00:23:57.220 So,

00:23:57.720 when he was

00:23:58.220 asked about

00:23:58.840 the,

00:23:59.260 this question

00:24:00.700 of whether

00:24:01.140 Kamala Harris

00:24:01.840 is eligible

00:24:03.020 for the

00:24:04.260 presidency,

00:24:05.060 because apparently

00:24:06.260 your parents

00:24:07.000 were born in

00:24:07.980 two different

00:24:08.640 countries,

00:24:09.220 but Kamala

00:24:10.800 was born

00:24:11.280 in Oakland.

00:24:13.320 So,

00:24:14.520 according to

00:24:15.560 the Constitution,

00:24:16.520 it's fairly

00:24:17.100 unambiguous.

00:24:18.460 If you're

00:24:18.940 born in this

00:24:19.560 country,

00:24:20.580 that's the

00:24:21.380 end of the

00:24:21.860 conversation.

00:24:23.260 Are you

00:24:23.620 eligible for

00:24:24.240 the presidency?

00:24:25.480 You are

00:24:26.060 a certain

00:24:26.400 age.

00:24:27.880 You are

00:24:28.220 born in

00:24:28.580 this country.

00:24:29.820 There are

00:24:30.240 no further

00:24:30.680 questions,

00:24:31.460 Your Honor.

00:24:32.500 But,

00:24:33.220 in the

00:24:34.140 legal world,

00:24:35.300 there's always

00:24:36.040 somebody who

00:24:36.680 can make an

00:24:37.100 argument about

00:24:37.680 anything.

00:24:38.200 So,

00:24:38.400 apparently,

00:24:38.780 there's some

00:24:39.220 arcane

00:24:40.260 argument about

00:24:41.140 whether birthright

00:24:42.800 citizenship is

00:24:43.840 really in the

00:24:44.440 Constitution.

00:24:46.660 So,

00:24:47.940 but I don't

00:24:49.860 think that is

00:24:50.700 credible enough

00:24:52.860 an argument

00:24:53.520 that it's

00:24:54.440 anything to

00:24:55.180 worry about.

00:24:55.540 However,

00:24:56.280 when Trump

00:24:56.760 was asked

00:24:57.140 about it,

00:24:57.920 did he

00:24:58.360 say,

00:24:59.500 she is

00:24:59.780 definitely

00:25:00.120 not

00:25:00.520 eligible?

00:25:01.100 No,

00:25:01.640 he didn't

00:25:01.940 say that.

00:25:03.900 Now,

00:25:07.580 who is it

00:25:08.120 who thinks

00:25:08.620 it would be

00:25:09.080 funny to

00:25:09.600 say,

00:25:09.940 Scott is

00:25:10.400 wrong,

00:25:10.860 in all

00:25:11.200 caps?

00:25:12.240 Now,

00:25:13.420 if you're

00:25:13.860 somebody who

00:25:14.380 knows that I

00:25:15.040 block you

00:25:15.580 for saying

00:25:16.080 that,

00:25:17.080 but you

00:25:17.460 think it

00:25:17.800 would be

00:25:18.080 funny to

00:25:18.620 say it,

00:25:19.780 because you

00:25:20.280 know that I

00:25:21.100 know you're

00:25:21.560 kidding,

00:25:22.500 it didn't

00:25:23.300 work,

00:25:23.840 because I

00:25:25.940 just am

00:25:26.380 going to

00:25:26.600 block you.

00:25:27.680 So,

00:25:27.980 I hope

00:25:28.300 you're not

00:25:28.740 a fan

00:25:30.080 trying to

00:25:30.620 be clever,

00:25:32.080 because you

00:25:33.260 just disappeared.

00:25:34.820 All right.

00:25:36.000 I remind

00:25:36.900 anybody who's

00:25:37.460 new,

00:25:38.180 you can always

00:25:38.760 give reasons,

00:25:39.600 you can always

00:25:40.040 disagree with

00:25:40.760 me,

00:25:41.040 that's invited,

00:25:42.520 but if you

00:25:43.000 just say

00:25:43.820 you're wrong,

00:25:45.280 then I block

00:25:46.040 you.

00:25:46.340 You're gone

00:25:46.800 forever.

00:25:49.160 So,

00:25:49.960 Trump says

00:25:50.620 that he

00:25:53.400 basically

00:25:54.080 hasn't looked

00:25:54.800 into it,

00:25:55.220 so he

00:25:55.380 doesn't have

00:25:55.760 an opinion

00:25:56.140 on it.

00:25:56.960 So he

00:25:57.240 leaves his

00:25:57.600 options open.

00:25:58.960 What he

00:25:59.340 always does,

00:25:59.840 he always

00:26:00.160 leaves his

00:26:00.560 options open.

00:26:02.020 So,

00:26:02.900 now,

00:26:03.660 so leaving

00:26:04.300 his options

00:26:05.160 open turns

00:26:06.620 into,

00:26:07.480 it's

00:26:07.740 birtherism 0.97

00:26:08.280 too,

00:26:08.620 he's a

00:26:08.900 racist and

00:26:09.520 a sexist.

00:26:10.980 None of

00:26:11.400 that happened.

00:26:13.220 None of

00:26:13.660 that happened.

00:26:15.740 So it's

00:26:16.440 just complete

00:26:16.980 fake news,

00:26:18.320 like we're

00:26:19.100 used to

00:26:19.580 seeing.

00:26:20.620 All right,

00:26:21.160 now,

00:26:21.620 I do

00:26:21.980 think it

00:26:22.380 would be

00:26:22.740 useful for

00:26:23.500 Trump to

00:26:24.100 dismiss that

00:26:24.980 because it's

00:26:25.740 not going to

00:26:26.140 help him,

00:26:27.260 but it

00:26:27.780 could hurt

00:26:28.220 him.

00:26:29.460 So I

00:26:31.020 think it

00:26:31.460 would be to

00:26:32.300 his advantage,

00:26:33.000 since he has

00:26:33.740 so many

00:26:34.200 overwhelming

00:26:34.840 advantages over

00:26:35.940 this team,

00:26:37.140 to not

00:26:37.740 start a

00:26:38.920 fight that

00:26:40.100 he can't

00:26:40.580 win.

00:26:41.000 That would

00:26:41.260 be bad

00:26:43.120 strategy,

00:26:43.980 and he's

00:26:44.320 rarely do you

00:26:45.900 see him use

00:26:46.260 bad strategy.

00:26:47.180 That's very

00:26:47.720 rare.

00:26:48.040 If

00:26:50.160 ever,

00:26:50.600 I don't

00:26:50.880 know.

00:26:52.440 So I

00:26:52.960 think he

00:26:53.300 should just

00:26:53.680 let that

00:26:54.020 one go.

00:26:54.620 Next time

00:26:55.100 he's asked,

00:26:55.660 I would

00:26:55.880 say,

00:26:56.540 you know,

00:26:57.020 I don't

00:26:57.340 think that's

00:26:57.760 a thing.

00:26:58.400 I'm not

00:26:58.740 going to

00:26:58.920 worry about

00:26:59.300 it.

00:26:59.980 I would

00:27:00.440 just say,

00:27:00.940 just dismiss

00:27:01.540 it.

00:27:02.120 Say,

00:27:02.320 I'm no

00:27:02.780 legal expert,

00:27:03.620 but I'm

00:27:04.000 just not

00:27:04.400 going to

00:27:04.620 treat that

00:27:05.000 as a

00:27:05.240 thing.

00:27:05.960 We'll

00:27:06.260 beat them

00:27:06.660 in the

00:27:07.100 regular

00:27:07.360 way.

00:27:07.760 It

00:27:07.820 doesn't

00:27:08.000 matter.

00:27:08.200 All

00:27:11.240 right.

00:27:14.060 Somebody's

00:27:14.580 asking in

00:27:15.060 the comments

00:27:15.560 if I

00:27:16.060 killed my

00:27:18.780 anti-fawn

00:27:19.360 neighbor.

00:27:21.800 Well,

00:27:22.340 I think

00:27:22.540 it's a

00:27:23.360 teenager.

00:27:24.740 It's not,

00:27:25.840 I don't

00:27:26.580 know how

00:27:26.880 old,

00:27:27.240 but 18-ish

00:27:28.660 or so.

00:27:29.620 Looks

00:27:29.900 like a

00:27:30.200 teen.

00:27:32.940 And

00:27:33.380 don't

00:27:36.700 worry about

00:27:37.160 that.

00:27:38.200 I'll

00:27:39.180 take care

00:27:39.580 of that.

00:27:41.260 Don't

00:27:41.700 you worry.

00:27:43.380 All

00:27:43.520 right.

00:27:43.980 And

00:27:44.260 so,

00:27:47.960 all

00:27:48.060 right,

00:27:48.200 here's a

00:27:48.580 funny

00:27:48.880 thing.

00:27:49.980 So,

00:27:50.300 Andres

00:27:50.720 Backhouse,

00:27:51.560 I mention

00:27:51.920 him a

00:27:52.280 lot.

00:27:52.700 One of

00:27:53.140 my

00:27:53.380 favorite

00:27:54.020 Twitter

00:27:54.880 friends,

00:27:56.620 and he

00:27:58.200 always has

00:27:58.560 a good

00:27:58.780 analysis of

00:28:00.000 anything

00:28:00.300 that's

00:28:00.620 logical,

00:28:01.400 PhD in

00:28:02.500 economics.

00:28:04.300 And here

00:28:04.880 was a

00:28:05.160 comment that

00:28:05.700 I thought

00:28:06.020 was really

00:28:06.600 clever. 0.51

00:28:07.480 He

00:28:07.640 tweeted,

00:28:08.000 yesterday,

00:28:09.320 the Biden

00:28:09.880 campaign must

00:28:10.640 be running a

00:28:11.300 loyalty check

00:28:12.140 on the

00:28:12.480 media.

00:28:13.740 Virtually

00:28:14.060 every U.S.

00:28:14.780 journalist knows

00:28:15.500 by now that

00:28:16.200 the way Biden

00:28:16.920 tells what

00:28:17.600 happened in

00:28:18.260 Charlottesville is

00:28:19.520 incorrect, the

00:28:20.440 so-called

00:28:20.860 fine people

00:28:21.940 hoax.

00:28:22.880 So the

00:28:23.480 campaign can

00:28:24.180 learn who

00:28:24.700 among them,

00:28:25.560 in other

00:28:25.840 words, who

00:28:26.140 among the

00:28:26.580 press, is

00:28:27.600 willing to

00:28:28.140 dump the

00:28:28.700 truth in

00:28:29.340 favor of

00:28:29.900 supporting

00:28:30.300 Biden.

00:28:30.720 and I

00:28:32.160 thought, well

00:28:33.580 that is

00:28:33.920 what's

00:28:34.180 happening.

00:28:35.080 Now I

00:28:35.280 don't know

00:28:35.520 if that's

00:28:35.880 their plan,

00:28:37.580 but the

00:28:38.380 actual outcome

00:28:39.420 is that the

00:28:40.680 Democrats can

00:28:41.580 learn which

00:28:43.120 members of

00:28:44.020 the press are

00:28:44.800 completely

00:28:45.560 uninterested in

00:28:47.080 the truth and

00:28:48.260 will just back

00:28:48.940 the team no

00:28:50.080 matter what

00:28:50.500 they say.

00:28:51.460 And I

00:28:51.740 thought to

00:28:52.040 myself, that

00:28:53.360 does exactly

00:28:54.200 that.

00:28:54.820 You know, who

00:28:55.160 knows what

00:28:55.600 their intentions

00:28:56.200 were, but

00:28:57.240 that's the

00:28:57.580 outcome.

00:28:57.900 The outcome

00:28:58.980 is that

00:28:59.400 anybody who

00:29:00.320 allowed Biden's

00:29:02.760 statement to

00:29:03.300 stand, which

00:29:03.900 they know to

00:29:04.400 be false, and 0.58

00:29:05.320 really, really

00:29:06.180 importantly false,

00:29:07.700 this isn't like

00:29:08.560 other political

00:29:09.540 lies.

00:29:10.700 This is a lie

00:29:11.520 that can cause

00:29:12.420 and might cause

00:29:13.280 an actual

00:29:13.860 physical violent

00:29:15.400 revolution in

00:29:16.440 this country the

00:29:17.640 day after

00:29:18.100 election.

00:29:19.540 So I would

00:29:20.420 say that

00:29:20.840 Biden, by

00:29:22.120 repeating this

00:29:22.820 lie, and 0.75

00:29:23.560 his, I

00:29:25.120 would say,

00:29:25.780 Nazi supporters

00:29:27.420 and the

00:29:27.920 press, basically

00:29:29.260 it's a Nazi

00:29:30.260 like situation.

00:29:32.400 I think this

00:29:33.680 is one of

00:29:34.060 those very

00:29:35.200 few situations

00:29:36.080 where the

00:29:37.800 analogy fits.

00:29:39.540 Because the

00:29:40.840 fine people

00:29:44.180 hoax, the

00:29:45.100 point of it

00:29:45.900 is to

00:29:46.460 demonize

00:29:47.140 white Trump

00:29:48.640 supporters.

00:29:49.340 That's the

00:29:49.620 whole point

00:29:50.040 of it.

00:29:50.860 So what

00:29:51.740 country

00:29:52.360 demonizes

00:29:53.640 an

00:29:54.260 ethnic,

00:29:55.380 you know,

00:29:55.680 identifiable

00:29:56.480 ethnic group

00:29:57.700 Nazi

00:29:59.620 Germany.

00:30:01.040 So what

00:30:02.300 Biden is

00:30:02.900 doing is

00:30:04.620 setting up

00:30:05.260 Trump supporters

00:30:06.200 for violence.

00:30:08.220 That's what

00:30:09.020 Hitler did. 0.95

00:30:10.580 Now, is that

00:30:11.160 too strong?

00:30:12.040 Because when

00:30:12.620 people make

00:30:13.160 Hitler analogies,

00:30:14.840 it's just

00:30:15.600 automatically

00:30:16.140 disqualifying for

00:30:17.420 you to be

00:30:17.840 talking in

00:30:19.460 public, really.

00:30:20.600 Because it's,

00:30:21.180 you know,

00:30:21.540 everything's a

00:30:22.260 Nazi analogy,

00:30:24.320 everything's

00:30:24.820 Hitler, but 0.85

00:30:25.880 in this very

00:30:26.460 narrow sense

00:30:27.440 of a leader

00:30:29.400 of a country

00:30:30.080 who's identifying

00:30:31.700 a certain

00:30:32.360 other segment

00:30:33.080 of the country

00:30:33.720 and is

00:30:34.840 specifically

00:30:35.420 calling them

00:30:36.180 out to

00:30:38.080 be unworthy

00:30:39.140 of good

00:30:40.580 treatment.

00:30:41.840 I mean,

00:30:42.060 that's what

00:30:42.480 the whole

00:30:43.020 point of it

00:30:43.580 is, that

00:30:44.520 anybody who

00:30:45.360 supported

00:30:45.980 Trump because

00:30:48.140 of this

00:30:48.980 alleged thing

00:30:50.100 that didn't

00:30:50.520 actually happen,

00:30:51.920 that therefore

00:30:52.380 the supporters

00:30:53.060 are not

00:30:54.180 worthy of

00:30:54.800 the same

00:30:55.160 kind of

00:30:55.820 respect and

00:30:56.720 treatment as

00:30:57.480 citizens as

00:30:59.100 somebody else

00:31:00.380 would be.

00:31:01.440 That is

00:31:02.160 Hitler. 0.57

00:31:03.000 That's not

00:31:03.620 similar to

00:31:04.600 Hitler. 0.57

00:31:06.000 That's pretty

00:31:07.340 right on the

00:31:08.360 nose, right?

00:31:09.780 Now, could

00:31:11.360 that turn into

00:31:12.480 something worse

00:31:14.400 than words?

00:31:16.600 Well, one of

00:31:17.600 the policies that

00:31:18.660 Kabbalah

00:31:19.160 Harris has

00:31:19.900 promoted is

00:31:22.780 gun confiscation

00:31:24.020 in the form

00:31:25.540 of a buyback,

00:31:26.520 but what's

00:31:27.340 the point of

00:31:27.800 a buyback

00:31:28.340 if you're

00:31:28.700 not going

00:31:29.020 to enforce

00:31:29.440 it?

00:31:30.500 So imagine

00:31:31.140 effectively the

00:31:34.540 president,

00:31:35.600 Kamala

00:31:35.880 Harris,

00:31:36.280 imagine that

00:31:36.860 they get

00:31:37.220 Congress.

00:31:38.440 So if they

00:31:38.880 get Congress

00:31:39.740 and they

00:31:42.600 pack the

00:31:43.240 Supreme

00:31:43.560 Court and

00:31:45.920 Kamala

00:31:46.300 Harris is the

00:31:47.040 effective

00:31:47.440 president,

00:31:48.140 president,

00:31:48.920 or even

00:31:49.720 if she

00:31:50.020 isn't,

00:31:51.100 could they

00:31:51.900 confiscate

00:31:52.900 guns?

00:31:54.160 And the

00:31:54.440 answer is

00:31:55.100 they kind

00:31:56.640 of could.

00:31:57.920 They kind

00:31:58.340 of could.

00:31:59.260 Now, I

00:31:59.760 wouldn't put

00:32:00.600 some kind of

00:32:01.540 statistical odds

00:32:02.840 of that

00:32:03.160 happening,

00:32:03.980 but could

00:32:04.840 you rule

00:32:05.260 it out?

00:32:06.900 You really

00:32:07.460 can't.

00:32:08.480 I want to.

00:32:09.600 I mean, I

00:32:09.940 really want

00:32:10.460 to.

00:32:11.300 Now, what

00:32:12.100 would happen

00:32:12.720 if our

00:32:15.420 legally or

00:32:16.620 may be

00:32:17.220 sketchily

00:32:18.000 elected,

00:32:18.720 because nobody

00:32:19.200 is going

00:32:19.440 to trust

00:32:19.800 the election

00:32:20.480 no matter

00:32:20.800 who wins?

00:32:21.900 What would

00:32:22.280 happen if

00:32:22.820 we have a

00:32:23.380 non-credible

00:32:24.260 election,

00:32:25.620 and then the

00:32:26.320 non-credibly

00:32:27.500 elected

00:32:28.060 president,

00:32:30.040 who was

00:32:30.540 not even

00:32:31.020 the top

00:32:31.420 of the

00:32:31.660 ticket,

00:32:32.240 Kamala

00:32:32.560 Harris,

00:32:33.360 who was

00:32:33.860 not even

00:32:34.400 popular in

00:32:35.420 her own

00:32:35.820 party until

00:32:36.540 she became

00:32:37.020 the president,

00:32:38.020 hypothetically,

00:32:39.140 and then she

00:32:40.120 goes to

00:32:40.960 take away the

00:32:41.580 guns of

00:32:42.340 mostly

00:32:42.880 Republicans?

00:32:44.440 How would

00:32:44.960 that go

00:32:45.340 down?

00:32:46.620 pretty much

00:32:48.840 the way

00:32:49.160 you think

00:32:49.500 it would,

00:32:49.900 right?

00:32:50.820 That would

00:32:51.640 actually be a

00:32:52.420 violent civil

00:32:53.080 war.

00:32:53.680 I don't

00:32:54.060 think anybody

00:32:54.700 can doubt

00:32:55.240 that at

00:32:55.600 this point.

00:32:58.220 And while

00:32:59.780 nobody promotes

00:33:01.520 violence,

00:33:02.920 and so I

00:33:03.600 won't promote

00:33:04.640 it, I'm not

00:33:05.140 going to be a

00:33:05.540 cheerleader for

00:33:06.220 violence, it

00:33:07.360 is nonetheless

00:33:07.880 predictable.

00:33:09.880 So you can

00:33:10.720 predict violence,

00:33:11.680 I think,

00:33:12.080 that's not

00:33:12.660 promoting it.

00:33:13.420 I think that's

00:33:13.880 fair, right?

00:33:14.940 And I would

00:33:15.380 predict that if

00:33:16.120 anybody

00:33:16.420 tries to

00:33:17.280 violate the

00:33:18.080 Second

00:33:18.320 Amendment,

00:33:19.400 it's only

00:33:20.020 going to go

00:33:20.420 one way.

00:33:21.800 It's only

00:33:22.460 going to go

00:33:23.060 one way.

00:33:24.020 And if you

00:33:24.460 want to have

00:33:24.880 Republican

00:33:25.460 presidents

00:33:25.920 forever,

00:33:27.420 try to take

00:33:28.560 away the

00:33:28.920 guns.

00:33:30.080 You will

00:33:30.520 get

00:33:30.780 Republicans

00:33:31.480 presidents

00:33:32.100 forever,

00:33:33.220 and not

00:33:33.780 necessarily

00:33:34.400 through an

00:33:34.940 election,

00:33:35.860 if you know

00:33:36.220 what I mean.

00:33:37.500 At that

00:33:38.200 point, it

00:33:38.900 would almost

00:33:39.380 become a

00:33:40.200 patriotic

00:33:41.400 duty to,

00:33:43.580 shall we

00:33:43.900 say,

00:33:44.240 resist.

00:33:44.700 resist.

00:33:45.860 And I

00:33:46.480 think resist

00:33:47.140 would be

00:33:47.900 the wrong

00:33:48.580 word,

00:33:49.480 because resist

00:33:50.420 sounds a

00:33:51.240 little defensive.

00:33:53.080 And this

00:33:53.680 would not be

00:33:54.240 a defensive

00:33:54.820 situation.

00:33:56.580 The people

00:33:56.900 with the

00:33:57.240 Second

00:33:57.480 Amendment

00:33:57.920 rights would

00:33:59.440 probably

00:34:00.080 converge on

00:34:00.980 Washington,

00:34:01.660 D.C.

00:34:02.480 You would

00:34:03.180 probably see

00:34:04.000 a massive

00:34:04.880 mobilization

00:34:05.800 of citizens

00:34:07.180 driving directly

00:34:08.440 into the

00:34:09.100 Capitol.

00:34:09.420 people.

00:34:10.340 Now, of

00:34:10.620 course, there

00:34:11.060 would be

00:34:11.420 massive

00:34:12.400 military

00:34:13.140 protection,

00:34:16.300 and all

00:34:17.100 of those

00:34:17.420 military

00:34:17.840 people would

00:34:18.780 have

00:34:19.020 families

00:34:19.620 in the

00:34:21.400 United

00:34:21.660 States.

00:34:22.320 They would

00:34:22.620 be presumably

00:34:23.680 at least a

00:34:24.460 little bit

00:34:24.880 pro-gun,

00:34:25.520 because they'd

00:34:25.980 have one

00:34:26.360 with them.

00:34:27.440 It's hard

00:34:27.780 to be in

00:34:28.660 the military

00:34:29.100 and be

00:34:29.580 anti-gun,

00:34:30.300 I would

00:34:30.520 think.

00:34:30.860 Must be

00:34:31.220 a few,

00:34:31.680 but so

00:34:33.940 what would

00:34:34.320 happen when

00:34:35.340 three million

00:34:37.820 armed

00:34:38.640 Americans

00:34:39.440 pull up

00:34:40.700 in their

00:34:41.160 cars and

00:34:41.900 pickup trucks

00:34:42.700 and say

00:34:44.680 to the

00:34:45.280 line of

00:34:46.020 military,

00:34:47.240 hey,

00:34:47.500 guys,

00:34:49.200 pick a

00:34:49.820 side,

00:34:50.440 because it's

00:34:51.640 going down.

00:34:53.300 What would

00:34:54.000 the military

00:34:54.540 say when

00:34:55.420 the citizens

00:34:55.940 came up to

00:34:56.560 them and

00:34:56.820 said,

00:34:57.300 last thing

00:34:58.020 we want

00:34:58.340 to do

00:34:58.540 is hurry

00:34:58.860 you guys,

00:34:59.480 because we're

00:34:59.860 on your

00:35:00.140 side,

00:35:01.200 but now

00:35:02.680 you have

00:35:03.000 to pick

00:35:03.280 a side.

00:35:04.800 Take

00:35:05.280 your

00:35:05.440 time.

00:35:06.400 It doesn't

00:35:06.760 have to

00:35:07.040 happen today,

00:35:08.060 but we're

00:35:08.660 going to be

00:35:08.980 here tomorrow,

00:35:10.180 and tomorrow

00:35:11.280 we're going

00:35:11.660 to ask you

00:35:12.220 again,

00:35:13.460 which side

00:35:14.020 you're on.

00:35:15.380 Are you

00:35:15.900 on the

00:35:16.140 side of

00:35:16.640 the

00:35:17.140 Constitution,

00:35:18.920 or are

00:35:19.580 you on the

00:35:20.040 side of

00:35:20.380 the dictator

00:35:20.960 who is

00:35:21.360 taking away

00:35:21.980 our guns?

00:35:23.080 Because we're

00:35:23.860 not going

00:35:24.180 to leave,

00:35:25.460 and we're

00:35:26.160 not going

00:35:26.540 to take

00:35:27.640 no for

00:35:28.000 an answer.

00:35:29.040 So you

00:35:29.560 just have

00:35:29.960 to decide

00:35:30.580 which side

00:35:31.360 you're on.

00:35:32.980 What side

00:35:34.220 do you think

00:35:34.560 the military

00:35:35.120 would be

00:35:35.480 on?

00:35:38.860 I don't

00:35:39.460 know.

00:35:40.000 The

00:35:40.240 military

00:35:40.700 are

00:35:41.020 patriots.

00:35:42.440 Would

00:35:42.760 patriots

00:35:43.360 side with

00:35:44.000 a dictator

00:35:44.520 to overthrow

00:35:45.580 the government

00:35:46.200 and take

00:35:47.380 away your

00:35:47.800 guns?

00:35:49.240 Good luck

00:35:49.800 with that.

00:35:51.020 That's why

00:35:51.600 dictators

00:35:52.060 usually have

00:35:52.720 private armies.

00:35:54.120 If you

00:35:54.800 don't have

00:35:55.180 your own

00:35:55.540 revolutionary

00:35:56.140 guard or

00:35:57.000 private army

00:35:57.640 where you're

00:35:58.720 bribing a

00:35:59.420 certain subset

00:36:00.240 of the

00:36:00.620 military to

00:36:01.400 have,

00:36:01.900 you know,

00:36:02.160 they've got

00:36:02.500 extra stuff

00:36:03.200 compared to

00:36:03.660 other people

00:36:04.140 so they're

00:36:05.000 more loyal

00:36:05.500 to you

00:36:05.880 because if

00:36:06.340 somebody else

00:36:06.780 takes over

00:36:07.240 they might

00:36:07.620 lose their

00:36:08.080 extra stuff.

00:36:09.420 We don't

00:36:09.940 have that.

00:36:11.380 We just

00:36:11.840 have people

00:36:12.300 in the

00:36:12.620 military

00:36:13.000 because they

00:36:13.380 wanted to

00:36:13.780 be in the

00:36:14.120 military

00:36:14.520 because guess

00:36:15.580 what?

00:36:16.960 They're

00:36:17.260 patriots.

00:36:18.900 They're

00:36:19.160 patriots.

00:36:20.500 Right?

00:36:21.340 The

00:36:21.540 patriots

00:36:22.040 are not so

00:36:23.280 much about

00:36:23.780 taking your

00:36:24.260 guns away.

00:36:24.760 so good

00:36:26.180 luck with

00:36:26.620 that Kamala

00:36:27.480 Harris

00:36:27.860 should you

00:36:28.640 try to

00:36:29.100 take guns

00:36:29.920 away.

00:36:30.780 That would

00:36:31.420 be the

00:36:32.880 end of

00:36:33.360 Democrats

00:36:33.880 forever

00:36:34.400 because I

00:36:35.820 don't think

00:36:36.260 Republicans

00:36:36.820 would ever

00:36:37.440 allow,

00:36:38.340 and when I

00:36:38.800 say allow,

00:36:39.920 I mean at

00:36:40.640 gunpoint,

00:36:41.700 I mean by

00:36:42.220 force,

00:36:43.240 would never

00:36:44.300 allow it to

00:36:44.880 happen again.

00:36:47.020 If it ever

00:36:47.980 got close to

00:36:48.860 something like

00:36:49.380 a gun

00:36:49.740 confiscation

00:36:50.600 at the

00:36:51.620 federal level,

00:36:53.160 Republicans

00:36:53.660 would end

00:36:54.560 the

00:36:55.000 democratic

00:36:55.480 rule

00:36:55.820 forever.

00:36:57.060 They would

00:36:57.800 because they

00:36:58.420 have the

00:36:58.660 power.

00:36:59.340 They have

00:36:59.520 the guns.

00:37:00.980 And I

00:37:01.500 think the

00:37:01.840 military would

00:37:02.500 back that

00:37:03.640 view.

00:37:04.780 So I

00:37:05.320 think that

00:37:05.760 would be

00:37:06.000 the end

00:37:06.360 of Democrats

00:37:06.900 forever.

00:37:07.680 I'm not

00:37:08.240 talking about

00:37:08.680 dead.

00:37:09.360 I'm talking

00:37:09.640 about as

00:37:10.080 a political

00:37:11.240 power,

00:37:12.000 that would

00:37:12.340 be the

00:37:12.580 end of

00:37:12.840 it.

00:37:14.480 But it

00:37:15.100 wouldn't be

00:37:15.420 easy.

00:37:17.300 So how

00:37:17.960 about those

00:37:18.340 reparations?

00:37:20.820 I was

00:37:21.580 asked even

00:37:22.840 today,

00:37:23.660 whether I

00:37:24.480 wanted to

00:37:24.980 continue the

00:37:26.380 talk about

00:37:26.880 reparations

00:37:27.700 for slavery

00:37:29.380 with somebody

00:37:31.780 who was

00:37:32.160 smart and

00:37:33.200 had a good

00:37:33.780 argument about

00:37:34.540 reparations,

00:37:35.520 to which I

00:37:36.740 said,

00:37:37.740 reparations

00:37:39.860 are already

00:37:40.740 paid.

00:37:42.240 I don't know

00:37:42.680 what you're

00:37:43.000 looking at,

00:37:43.960 but I just

00:37:44.740 watched the

00:37:45.320 destruction of

00:37:46.260 several major

00:37:46.960 cities in the

00:37:47.700 United States,

00:37:49.280 and reparations

00:37:51.680 are over.

00:37:52.180 I was on

00:37:54.420 the side of,

00:37:55.160 hey, let's

00:37:55.440 talk about

00:37:55.920 this.

00:37:56.360 There might

00:37:56.680 be some

00:37:57.100 way we

00:37:57.480 could work

00:37:57.860 something out

00:37:58.500 where everybody

00:38:00.060 gets better

00:38:01.560 off.

00:38:02.200 And I

00:38:02.380 thought,

00:38:02.640 you know,

00:38:02.900 don't rule

00:38:03.340 it out.

00:38:04.320 It might be

00:38:04.840 something we

00:38:05.340 can do

00:38:05.640 here.

00:38:06.380 And I've

00:38:07.040 written about

00:38:07.560 it.

00:38:07.820 I've written

00:38:08.260 about it

00:38:08.660 favorably in

00:38:09.480 terms of,

00:38:10.000 yeah, maybe

00:38:10.380 there's something

00:38:10.740 you could do

00:38:11.140 here.

00:38:12.240 But not at

00:38:13.160 this point.

00:38:14.780 At this point,

00:38:15.360 it would be

00:38:15.620 freaking crazy.

00:38:16.300 because the

00:38:18.160 black community

00:38:18.880 has claimed

00:38:20.300 their reparations.

00:38:21.320 Even Black 0.89

00:38:21.900 Lives Matter

00:38:22.440 called the

00:38:23.060 looting

00:38:23.460 reparations.

00:38:24.880 They called

00:38:25.260 it that.

00:38:25.700 That's not

00:38:26.060 even me.

00:38:27.720 Black Lives

00:38:28.520 Matter called 0.62

00:38:29.180 the looting

00:38:29.740 a form of

00:38:30.440 reparations.

00:38:31.220 To which I

00:38:32.060 say, I

00:38:33.380 agree.

00:38:34.800 I take yes

00:38:35.940 for an answer.

00:38:37.060 And that was

00:38:37.780 your reparations.

00:38:38.800 So that

00:38:39.100 conversation,

00:38:40.260 that's never

00:38:41.440 going to happen

00:38:41.980 again.

00:38:42.980 All right?

00:38:43.220 The reparations

00:38:44.980 conversation,

00:38:46.420 if there's

00:38:47.180 anybody in

00:38:47.600 the black

00:38:47.940 community who's

00:38:49.480 wondering, hey,

00:38:50.600 maybe we can

00:38:51.180 circle back to

00:38:52.740 that, don't

00:38:54.420 bother.

00:38:55.220 Don't bother

00:38:55.780 circling back.

00:38:57.140 That conversation

00:38:58.040 is as dead as

00:38:59.520 Joe Biden's

00:39:00.300 brain.

00:39:01.300 That's pretty

00:39:01.880 damn dead.

00:39:03.100 However, that

00:39:04.080 said, if the

00:39:05.220 black community

00:39:05.820 would like to

00:39:06.620 stop being

00:39:08.020 completely

00:39:08.660 hypnotized by

00:39:09.700 bad people,

00:39:11.400 and would like

00:39:12.220 to work on

00:39:12.760 their highest

00:39:13.380 priority, which

00:39:15.040 would be getting

00:39:15.600 education right,

00:39:17.120 which means

00:39:17.640 getting rid of

00:39:18.220 the teachers

00:39:19.860 unions, because

00:39:20.900 that's the

00:39:21.340 problem with

00:39:21.780 education, if

00:39:23.140 they want to

00:39:23.580 do that, I'm

00:39:24.740 all in.

00:39:25.980 So it's not

00:39:26.720 that I don't

00:39:27.160 want to do

00:39:27.620 work that

00:39:28.960 would help

00:39:29.280 the black

00:39:29.660 community.

00:39:30.260 I'm all about

00:39:30.820 that.

00:39:31.580 For years,

00:39:32.720 that's been a

00:39:33.920 primary interest.

00:39:35.060 Because I've

00:39:35.460 always said, if

00:39:35.980 you help the

00:39:36.660 people who are

00:39:37.140 in the deepest

00:39:37.920 hole, that

00:39:39.580 also helps the

00:39:41.140 whole country

00:39:41.860 the most.

00:39:42.760 So taking

00:39:43.480 somebody from

00:39:44.220 no job to

00:39:45.020 a job is a

00:39:45.920 big deal.

00:39:47.060 Taking

00:39:47.340 somebody from

00:39:48.040 not educated

00:39:48.980 enough to

00:39:49.880 educated enough

00:39:50.840 is a really

00:39:51.680 big deal.

00:39:52.640 So most of

00:39:53.140 your big

00:39:53.640 gains can

00:39:55.100 happen in

00:39:55.820 that same

00:39:56.320 segment of

00:39:56.920 the world.

00:39:58.180 And I

00:39:58.840 usually describe

00:39:59.680 it as the

00:40:00.240 people who

00:40:01.820 don't have

00:40:02.560 money, basically.

00:40:04.180 Because it

00:40:04.720 ends up being

00:40:05.380 skewed by race,

00:40:07.220 but you don't

00:40:07.620 have to make it

00:40:08.220 that way.

00:40:08.540 You can just

00:40:08.820 say, how do

00:40:09.680 we help all

00:40:10.720 the people

00:40:11.100 who are in

00:40:11.440 a bad

00:40:11.720 situation?

00:40:13.140 And then it

00:40:13.760 ends up being

00:40:14.740 good for black 0.74

00:40:15.360 people a little

00:40:16.640 bit more than

00:40:17.220 other people

00:40:17.720 because they're

00:40:18.180 in a deeper

00:40:18.580 hole.

00:40:20.080 So I'm all in

00:40:20.960 favor of that

00:40:21.580 and willing to

00:40:22.300 put work into

00:40:23.060 that.

00:40:23.520 But reparations?

00:40:25.040 No.

00:40:26.420 No, that's not

00:40:27.300 even a conversation

00:40:28.180 that we can have

00:40:29.360 anymore.

00:40:29.960 That's done.

00:40:31.480 And you can

00:40:32.200 thank Black Lives

00:40:32.960 Matter for that,

00:40:34.320 for ruining

00:40:34.880 your brand and

00:40:35.700 making everything

00:40:37.020 a little bit

00:40:37.420 harder by focusing

00:40:38.360 on the wrong

00:40:38.920 stuff.

00:40:40.040 The wrong

00:40:40.500 stuff, meaning

00:40:41.080 that in terms

00:40:42.560 of your

00:40:42.880 priorities, the

00:40:44.440 police harassment

00:40:45.780 problem, I'll

00:40:47.220 accept as

00:40:47.780 completely real

00:40:48.680 if you'll

00:40:50.180 accept it's

00:40:50.700 also the

00:40:51.180 smallest problem

00:40:52.120 for most

00:40:54.320 people.

00:40:55.720 It's a big

00:40:56.420 problem if it

00:40:57.000 happens to you,

00:40:58.020 but it's the

00:40:58.640 smallest problem

00:40:59.360 for the

00:40:59.700 community.

00:41:01.500 All right, I

00:41:02.060 had quite

00:41:02.960 annoyingly been

00:41:04.040 annoyingly to

00:41:06.040 you, I think,

00:41:07.260 defending Bill

00:41:08.040 Gates on his

00:41:09.440 many thoughts

00:41:11.040 about the

00:41:11.580 pandemic and

00:41:12.440 about vaccines

00:41:15.340 and everything

00:41:16.400 else.

00:41:17.340 I'm reversing

00:41:18.440 that as of

00:41:19.920 yesterday.

00:41:21.840 So here's the

00:41:23.100 reversal.

00:41:24.000 So I just saw

00:41:24.800 an interview,

00:41:26.020 article in which

00:41:27.160 Bill Gates was

00:41:27.940 asked about

00:41:28.480 hydroxychloroquine,

00:41:30.000 and he dismissed

00:41:31.340 it because of the

00:41:32.320 bad side effects.

00:41:34.600 The bad side

00:41:36.080 effects of

00:41:36.720 hydroxychloroquine.

00:41:38.600 Now, I don't

00:41:41.200 know how you

00:41:42.040 could be a

00:41:42.860 public intellectual

00:41:44.020 and literally one

00:41:45.720 of the smartest

00:41:46.280 people in the

00:41:47.200 country, which

00:41:48.520 Bill Gates is.

00:41:49.440 By the way, if

00:41:50.060 you've never seen

00:41:50.820 a biography or

00:41:52.920 anything of Bill

00:41:53.520 Gates, you need

00:41:54.800 to watch one.

00:41:55.960 Because if you

00:41:56.780 think he's just a

00:41:57.720 smart guy, that's

00:41:59.680 not what's going

00:42:00.280 on.

00:42:01.700 Bill Gates is not

00:42:02.960 like a normal

00:42:03.760 smart person.

00:42:05.260 He's like almost

00:42:06.320 another species.

00:42:07.900 His brain,

00:42:10.120 comparing our

00:42:11.720 brains, I think

00:42:13.360 I'm pretty smart

00:42:14.160 relatively speaking,

00:42:15.960 but I'm not

00:42:16.900 anywhere near the

00:42:17.940 Bill Gates brain

00:42:19.400 power level.

00:42:20.220 He's like another

00:42:20.920 species.

00:42:22.260 Even compared to

00:42:23.520 just ordinary smart

00:42:24.760 people, he's another

00:42:25.540 species.

00:42:26.540 So if you don't

00:42:27.160 know that, and you

00:42:28.740 just think he's a

00:42:29.540 smart guy who got

00:42:30.340 lucky and started a

00:42:31.300 company, right place

00:42:32.180 in the right

00:42:32.480 time, you're

00:42:33.420 missing the whole

00:42:34.040 thing.

00:42:35.360 He is not like

00:42:36.420 other people, like

00:42:37.580 really not like

00:42:38.560 other people.

00:42:40.080 That said, how

00:42:41.840 could he be

00:42:42.760 unaware, when all

00:42:44.100 of you are aware,

00:42:45.460 that the

00:42:45.880 hydroxychloroquine

00:42:47.040 side effects are

00:42:49.760 non-existent?

00:42:51.580 Now, of course,

00:42:52.500 there are no

00:42:52.900 absolutes, so of

00:42:54.040 course it does

00:42:54.720 exist, but it's so

00:42:56.040 tiny, the drug's

00:42:57.200 been used for 65

00:42:58.340 years, it's only

00:42:59.980 those trials where

00:43:00.960 they overdose

00:43:01.560 people who are

00:43:02.380 near death, that

00:43:03.200 something bad

00:43:03.880 happened, if

00:43:05.080 you're giving

00:43:05.520 these tiny doses

00:43:06.540 to people who

00:43:07.940 have mild

00:43:08.540 symptoms, basically

00:43:10.340 the risk is

00:43:11.160 zero.

00:43:12.240 Now, are you

00:43:13.160 telling me that

00:43:13.780 Bill Gates doesn't

00:43:14.760 know that?

00:43:17.240 Seriously.

00:43:18.520 As of today,

00:43:19.880 you're telling me

00:43:20.440 that Bill Gates

00:43:21.080 doesn't know that

00:43:23.060 the hydroxychloroquine

00:43:24.340 side effects are

00:43:25.780 somewhere between

00:43:26.700 trivial and none?

00:43:28.440 Really?

00:43:29.360 Really, he

00:43:30.080 doesn't know

00:43:30.700 that.

00:43:31.560 Not a

00:43:32.840 freaking chance.

00:43:34.340 There's not a

00:43:35.220 chance he doesn't

00:43:36.180 know that.

00:43:37.660 I mean, I

00:43:37.980 suppose only in

00:43:38.760 the extreme case

00:43:40.240 of anything is

00:43:40.800 possible, but

00:43:41.540 no.

00:43:43.360 And for him to

00:43:44.700 say that in

00:43:45.380 public, like it

00:43:47.160 was true,

00:43:49.120 suggests there's,

00:43:50.680 I'm going to

00:43:51.380 just put this in

00:43:52.120 quotes, something

00:43:53.640 going on.

00:43:55.300 Now, I didn't

00:43:56.300 want to buy into

00:43:57.040 the Bill Gates

00:43:58.440 who's in it for

00:43:58.960 the money, and

00:44:00.160 I still don't.

00:44:01.620 He's not in it

00:44:02.440 for the money.

00:44:03.740 That's like the

00:44:04.280 most ridiculous

00:44:04.980 thing of all

00:44:06.100 time.

00:44:06.620 He's literally

00:44:07.300 working full-time

00:44:08.300 to give his

00:44:09.440 money away.

00:44:11.280 He's the last

00:44:12.220 person who's in it

00:44:12.960 for the money.

00:44:13.720 So anybody who

00:44:14.640 thinks, ah, he's

00:44:15.320 got this company

00:44:16.480 making a vaccine,

00:44:17.600 and so he's, you

00:44:19.820 know, just wants

00:44:20.360 them to make

00:44:20.860 money.

00:44:22.100 No.

00:44:23.400 No.

00:44:24.280 Now, maybe he

00:44:25.000 has an opinion

00:44:25.560 about the way

00:44:26.480 things should go

00:44:27.280 and doesn't

00:44:27.700 think hydroxychloroquine

00:44:28.820 is enough, it

00:44:29.740 has to be a

00:44:30.200 vaccination, doesn't 0.98

00:44:31.700 want us to think,

00:44:32.840 you know, we

00:44:33.900 can get away

00:44:34.400 without a

00:44:34.840 vaccination.

00:44:36.080 It could have

00:44:36.680 to do with the

00:44:37.280 psychology of

00:44:38.040 whether you get

00:44:38.600 the vaccination

00:44:39.180 when it's

00:44:39.740 available.

00:44:40.680 Maybe.

00:44:41.640 Could be one of

00:44:42.420 those things.

00:44:43.460 I do believe

00:44:44.860 that he has

00:44:45.680 good intentions.

00:44:46.420 intentions, so

00:44:47.140 that part I'm

00:44:47.680 not doubting

00:44:48.160 whatsoever.

00:44:49.640 So let me say

00:44:50.120 that again.

00:44:51.540 I'm positive he

00:44:52.680 has good intentions.

00:44:54.340 Yeah, people

00:44:54.780 saying he's a

00:44:55.460 eugenicist, but

00:44:57.720 that's anybody who

00:44:58.380 is in favor of

00:44:59.080 birth control,

00:44:59.700 basically.

00:45:03.240 But, having

00:45:04.700 said this about

00:45:05.380 hydroxychloroquine,

00:45:06.860 I now have to

00:45:07.740 reject him as

00:45:09.080 being honest on

00:45:11.600 this topic.

00:45:12.880 And once you've

00:45:13.640 rejected him as

00:45:14.460 being honest,

00:45:15.120 anything else is

00:45:17.880 off for grabs,

00:45:19.180 right?

00:45:21.480 Oh, God, my

00:45:22.360 sense of smell is

00:45:23.140 coming back.

00:45:25.100 I think I can

00:45:25.920 smell my coffee.

00:45:27.520 I had a

00:45:28.120 sinus operation,

00:45:29.700 and I think I

00:45:30.560 can smell again.

00:45:32.520 God, it's a good

00:45:33.080 feeling.

00:45:34.420 It turns out not

00:45:35.160 everything smells

00:45:35.820 good, though, so

00:45:36.480 it's a bad thing.

00:45:37.860 A lot of talk

00:45:38.980 about Harris

00:45:40.720 being a

00:45:42.360 hypocrite, 0.72

00:45:42.860 racist, meaning

00:45:44.240 that when she

00:45:45.040 was running in

00:45:46.060 the primaries,

00:45:47.720 she called

00:45:48.220 Joe Biden

00:45:48.820 basically sort

00:45:50.440 of a racist

00:45:51.820 for some of

00:45:52.920 the things he

00:45:53.300 did.

00:45:54.080 But now she

00:45:56.060 doesn't think

00:45:56.700 those things.

00:45:58.360 Likewise, there

00:45:59.160 will be a number

00:45:59.620 of things that

00:46:00.280 maybe Biden has

00:46:01.280 a policy that's

00:46:02.200 different from

00:46:02.640 hers, and she 0.78

00:46:04.380 will immediately

00:46:05.000 back off on

00:46:06.060 that.

00:46:06.240 So how much

00:46:07.620 should we care

00:46:08.740 that Harris

00:46:10.540 will be

00:46:10.980 considered a

00:46:11.740 hypocrite, and 0.90

00:46:12.980 that whatever

00:46:13.560 policy she comes

00:46:15.860 to embrace as

00:46:16.980 a candidate now

00:46:17.980 will be different

00:46:19.280 than maybe a

00:46:20.100 lifetime of

00:46:20.740 things she's

00:46:21.240 said before?

00:46:22.000 How much does

00:46:22.880 that matter?

00:46:24.940 Here's the

00:46:25.540 answer.

00:46:26.380 Not at all.

00:46:27.600 Not at all.

00:46:29.320 You'd like that

00:46:30.360 to matter,

00:46:30.980 wouldn't you?

00:46:31.620 Wouldn't you like

00:46:32.380 it to matter that

00:46:33.100 a politician said,

00:46:34.060 no, you cannot

00:46:35.340 do this on

00:46:36.400 Tuesday, and

00:46:37.660 then on Wednesday

00:46:38.240 they say, this

00:46:38.860 is the best idea

00:46:39.500 in the world.

00:46:40.800 Yeah, this is

00:46:41.300 totally good.

00:46:41.960 Yeah, forget

00:46:42.320 what I said

00:46:42.720 before.

00:46:43.260 This is totally

00:46:43.820 good.

00:46:44.320 How much does

00:46:45.300 that matter to

00:46:46.500 voters?

00:46:47.540 And the answer

00:46:47.980 is not at all.

00:46:49.520 Not even a

00:46:50.080 little bit.

00:46:51.100 In the context

00:46:52.320 of vice

00:46:54.520 presidency, the

00:46:56.320 job is to

00:46:57.300 agree with the

00:46:58.040 boss.

00:46:59.280 And we all

00:46:59.960 understand that,

00:47:01.040 right?

00:47:01.940 There's nobody

00:47:02.440 who doesn't

00:47:03.000 understand that

00:47:04.700 the job

00:47:05.300 description is

00:47:06.920 to agree

00:47:07.320 with the

00:47:07.620 boss.

00:47:08.440 In this

00:47:08.920 case, the

00:47:09.320 boss might

00:47:09.800 be the

00:47:10.720 operatives

00:47:11.280 behind Biden,

00:47:12.660 but nobody's

00:47:14.120 going to care

00:47:14.520 about any

00:47:14.920 of the hypocrisy

00:47:15.700 stuff.

00:47:16.240 So anything

00:47:16.920 that you say

00:47:17.520 about that

00:47:18.060 is interesting,

00:47:19.560 but not

00:47:20.360 persuasive.

00:47:21.360 It won't

00:47:21.700 change any

00:47:22.180 votes.

00:47:27.220 Here's

00:47:27.700 an interesting

00:47:28.120 thing.

00:47:28.640 There was

00:47:28.840 a survey

00:47:29.460 of the

00:47:32.160 tech companies

00:47:33.100 from Netflix

00:47:34.540 through Apple

00:47:35.620 through Google,

00:47:36.540 Amazon, all

00:47:37.160 the tech

00:47:37.440 companies, and

00:47:38.700 they looked at

00:47:39.280 their political

00:47:40.060 donations.

00:47:41.460 You would

00:47:42.000 not be

00:47:42.480 surprised to

00:47:43.080 hear that

00:47:43.440 99.6% of

00:47:45.160 employee political

00:47:46.160 donations at

00:47:47.120 Netflix went

00:47:48.720 to Democrats,

00:47:50.580 99% at

00:47:53.040 Twitter, 98%

00:47:55.320 at Apple.

00:47:56.240 So what's

00:47:56.820 your conclusion

00:47:57.480 from that?

00:47:58.060 is your

00:47:59.340 conclusion

00:47:59.860 that nearly

00:48:02.320 100% of

00:48:03.620 employees at

00:48:04.940 the tech

00:48:05.280 companies are

00:48:05.860 Democrat?

00:48:06.920 Is that

00:48:07.300 your conclusion?

00:48:09.460 Well, that

00:48:12.000 might be one

00:48:13.000 interpretation.

00:48:14.720 Can you think

00:48:15.440 of any other

00:48:16.400 reason why

00:48:17.940 all of the

00:48:18.960 donations which

00:48:19.900 can be

00:48:20.440 discovered by

00:48:21.920 third parties,

00:48:23.280 that's the

00:48:24.040 nature of

00:48:24.500 these donations,

00:48:25.320 I guess,

00:48:25.740 you can tell

00:48:26.760 who donated

00:48:27.320 to in what

00:48:28.580 way.

00:48:29.940 So is that

00:48:31.580 the only

00:48:32.440 explanation why

00:48:34.280 all the people

00:48:35.320 who made a

00:48:36.000 public donation

00:48:38.960 donated

00:48:40.540 Democrat?

00:48:42.380 Huh.

00:48:43.800 Is that the

00:48:44.360 only explanation

00:48:45.540 is that they're

00:48:46.140 all Democrats?

00:48:48.720 Yeah.

00:48:50.160 That's one

00:48:50.960 explanation.

00:48:52.400 Let me suggest

00:48:53.360 a second

00:48:54.060 explanation.

00:48:55.740 Anybody

00:48:56.460 who works,

00:48:57.980 can I be

00:48:59.440 allowed one

00:49:00.260 swear word?

00:49:02.900 Can I see

00:49:03.900 a show of

00:49:04.320 hands?

00:49:05.920 This will be

00:49:06.860 brief, but

00:49:08.460 I kind of

00:49:09.240 wasn't expecting

00:49:09.960 this.

00:49:12.200 So cover the

00:49:13.240 ears of your

00:49:13.760 children.

00:49:15.200 This will just

00:49:15.820 be brief.

00:49:16.840 All right.

00:49:17.240 I hope you're

00:49:17.660 all ready now

00:49:18.240 for this.

00:49:18.660 if 99%

00:49:21.800 of the

00:49:22.360 people who

00:49:22.900 knew that

00:49:23.700 their donation

00:49:24.720 could be

00:49:25.320 discovered,

00:49:27.580 only

00:49:28.020 only

00:49:28.660 Democrat,

00:49:29.520 they only

00:49:30.020 donated to

00:49:30.860 Democrats,

00:49:31.760 the other

00:49:32.700 possibility

00:49:33.480 is that the

00:49:35.240 Republicans who

00:49:36.160 work or the

00:49:36.900 conservatives who

00:49:37.740 work in

00:49:38.140 Silicon Valley,

00:49:39.000 and I'm just

00:49:39.320 going to put

00:49:39.640 that out there,

00:49:40.820 are not,

00:49:41.560 what's the

00:49:42.720 phrase?

00:49:43.560 Fucking

00:49:44.120 idiots.

00:49:44.580 how about

00:49:47.260 the people

00:49:48.060 who support

00:49:48.900 President Trump

00:49:49.980 but also

00:49:50.920 work in

00:49:51.440 Silicon Valley

00:49:52.280 are smart

00:49:53.300 enough to

00:49:53.820 know that

00:49:54.920 their donations

00:49:55.620 are discoverable

00:49:56.800 because blah

00:49:57.800 blah database.

00:49:59.960 Don't you

00:50:00.520 think that

00:50:01.840 the Republicans

00:50:02.600 and conservatives

00:50:03.440 who support

00:50:04.780 Trump are

00:50:05.840 simply not

00:50:06.640 going to do

00:50:07.280 something that

00:50:07.940 publicly flags

00:50:08.980 them as a

00:50:09.480 Trump supporter?

00:50:10.800 So do you

00:50:11.340 believe this

00:50:11.900 99% of

00:50:13.320 donators

00:50:14.940 are

00:50:15.560 Republican?

00:50:16.760 I'm sorry,

00:50:17.200 are Democrat?

00:50:17.980 Well, I believe

00:50:18.560 that's how it

00:50:19.080 turned out.

00:50:20.420 But if you

00:50:21.200 believe that

00:50:21.820 there are not

00:50:22.400 at least,

00:50:23.080 I don't know,

00:50:24.220 10 or 20%

00:50:25.340 of the

00:50:27.540 Silicon Valley

00:50:28.260 is Trump

00:50:29.060 supporters,

00:50:29.500 if you believe

00:50:30.000 they're not

00:50:30.360 there,

00:50:31.640 you are

00:50:32.340 very wrong.

00:50:34.140 Because guess

00:50:35.200 what happens

00:50:35.860 when you're

00:50:36.920 the Dilbert

00:50:37.440 guy and you

00:50:38.600 say anything

00:50:39.080 good about

00:50:39.820 Trump?

00:50:41.320 Do you

00:50:41.580 know what

00:50:41.800 happens?

00:50:42.160 you are

00:50:43.420 contacted

00:50:44.100 privately

00:50:44.780 by a lot

00:50:45.600 of people

00:50:45.920 in Silicon

00:50:46.540 Valley

00:50:47.040 who say

00:50:47.980 some version

00:50:48.720 of this,

00:50:49.720 I'm in deep

00:50:50.840 hiding,

00:50:51.740 but I'm glad

00:50:52.400 you're not.

00:50:54.160 Do you

00:50:54.600 know how many

00:50:55.060 people have

00:50:55.520 told me that?

00:50:56.620 Some version

00:50:57.280 of,

00:50:57.800 never mention

00:50:58.700 my name,

00:50:59.900 but I agree

00:51:00.740 with what

00:51:01.140 you're saying.

00:51:02.240 Do you

00:51:02.440 know how many

00:51:02.820 people watch

00:51:03.500 this periscope

00:51:04.460 in Silicon

00:51:05.880 Valley?

00:51:06.940 There's a few.

00:51:08.000 you might

00:51:10.340 not know

00:51:10.840 it.

00:51:11.540 There's a

00:51:12.180 few.

00:51:13.360 Some of

00:51:13.860 them,

00:51:14.860 some of

00:51:16.800 them have

00:51:17.120 done well.

00:51:17.820 Let's just

00:51:18.540 put it that

00:51:19.020 way.

00:51:21.120 So I

00:51:21.960 wouldn't

00:51:22.120 believe that

00:51:22.580 statistic.

00:51:23.520 You know,

00:51:23.720 it's 2020,

00:51:24.620 so you

00:51:24.920 shouldn't

00:51:25.120 believe any

00:51:25.680 statistic or

00:51:26.880 anything about

00:51:27.520 anything.

00:51:28.020 All our

00:51:28.300 data is

00:51:28.660 wrong in

00:51:28.980 2020.

00:51:29.340 I am

00:51:33.140 freaking out

00:51:34.020 because the

00:51:35.200 new doctor

00:51:36.220 that President

00:51:37.080 Trump has

00:51:37.640 brought on

00:51:38.100 board for

00:51:38.700 the coronavirus

00:51:39.220 stuff, his

00:51:40.480 name sounds

00:51:41.220 too much like

00:51:42.100 mine, and

00:51:43.380 it's bugging

00:51:43.840 me.

00:51:44.680 Because every

00:51:45.360 time the

00:51:45.740 president says

00:51:46.500 Skada

00:51:47.160 Tlis, I

00:51:50.660 perk up.

00:51:51.260 I'm like,

00:51:51.500 Skada,

00:51:51.780 what?

00:51:52.980 He goes,

00:51:53.400 yeah, I

00:51:54.520 got this new

00:51:55.000 expert.

00:51:55.480 His name is

00:51:55.900 Skada, and

00:51:57.140 I'm like,

00:51:57.500 what?

00:51:57.760 Tlis, oh, 0.99

00:52:01.060 that's not

00:52:01.600 me.

00:52:02.820 But it was

00:52:03.440 even freakier.

00:52:04.880 The other

00:52:05.520 day I was

00:52:06.100 listening to

00:52:06.700 the president,

00:52:07.480 and he just

00:52:08.020 brought on

00:52:08.600 Dr. Scott

00:52:09.640 Atlas to

00:52:10.400 be an

00:52:10.720 advisor, and

00:52:12.160 he refers to

00:52:12.860 him by his

00:52:13.280 first name,

00:52:14.020 Scott.

00:52:15.380 So I'm

00:52:15.820 just watching

00:52:16.420 the president,

00:52:18.960 and I'm doing

00:52:19.440 some other

00:52:19.900 stuff, and

00:52:20.460 he's doing

00:52:21.620 his press

00:52:22.060 conference, and

00:52:22.640 he's like,

00:52:23.600 blah, blah,

00:52:24.080 blah, blah,

00:52:24.220 blah, blah.

00:52:24.700 And so,

00:52:25.660 don't you think

00:52:26.500 that's right,

00:52:27.080 Scott?

00:52:27.760 And I

00:52:28.400 was like,

00:52:29.320 what just

00:52:30.020 happened?

00:52:31.360 I thought I

00:52:32.100 was just

00:52:32.460 watching the

00:52:33.020 press conference,

00:52:33.740 but I think

00:52:34.080 the president

00:52:34.620 just called

00:52:35.180 me by my

00:52:35.700 first name.

00:52:36.900 Oh, Dr.

00:52:37.940 Scott

00:52:38.180 Atlas.

00:52:38.720 Okay.

00:52:39.580 So I'm

00:52:40.140 just saying

00:52:40.500 it's freaking

00:52:41.780 me out.

00:52:44.100 So CNN

00:52:44.960 did a little

00:52:46.620 hit piece

00:52:47.480 monologue by

00:52:48.500 one of their

00:52:49.360 people I

00:52:51.620 didn't recognize,

00:52:52.860 and they

00:52:54.440 really went

00:52:54.860 after Dr.

00:52:56.280 Scott

00:52:56.860 Atlas.

00:52:57.760 But here's

00:52:58.360 the thing.

00:52:59.360 It was

00:53:00.000 somebody who

00:53:00.620 did not

00:53:01.160 have a

00:53:01.600 medical degree,

00:53:03.480 somebody who

00:53:04.360 was not a

00:53:05.060 scientist,

00:53:06.540 somebody who

00:53:07.320 was just,

00:53:08.020 as far as I

00:53:08.640 can tell,

00:53:09.640 a journalist.

00:53:11.340 Now, a

00:53:12.100 journalist decided

00:53:13.760 to go on

00:53:14.400 television and

00:53:16.300 explain to the

00:53:17.100 public why a

00:53:19.080 trained professional

00:53:20.120 doctor was

00:53:21.920 wrong on the

00:53:23.700 doctor stuff.

00:53:26.220 And the

00:53:27.020 argument was

00:53:27.800 that he was,

00:53:29.420 I guess,

00:53:30.600 insufficiently

00:53:31.360 qualified.

00:53:32.880 Now, how

00:53:34.800 dumb do you

00:53:35.400 have to be

00:53:36.020 to listen to

00:53:37.260 a journalist

00:53:37.940 who doesn't

00:53:39.280 have any

00:53:39.720 training,

00:53:41.080 criticize

00:53:41.500 somebody who

00:53:42.420 does have

00:53:43.420 all the right

00:53:44.020 training,

00:53:45.120 and to tell

00:53:46.300 you that the

00:53:46.960 problem with

00:53:47.520 the person who

00:53:48.080 has all the

00:53:48.620 right training,

00:53:50.560 per the

00:53:51.280 journalist who

00:53:51.960 has none,

00:53:53.240 is that the

00:53:53.860 doctor is

00:53:54.480 getting it

00:53:54.920 wrong.

00:53:55.940 Now, I'm

00:53:56.800 not saying

00:53:57.240 that the

00:53:57.580 doctor is

00:53:57.980 getting it

00:53:58.400 right or

00:53:58.780 wrong,

00:53:59.120 because we've

00:53:59.540 seen that

00:53:59.940 there are

00:54:00.200 experts who

00:54:00.760 disagree,

00:54:02.200 but how

00:54:03.620 dumb do you

00:54:04.160 have to be

00:54:04.800 to watch

00:54:05.740 that network,

00:54:06.880 CNN, and

00:54:08.140 see a

00:54:08.580 journalist

00:54:09.140 criticize a

00:54:10.360 doctor on

00:54:11.160 doctor stuff?

00:54:12.680 It's not on

00:54:13.680 non-doctor stuff,

00:54:14.780 it's doctor

00:54:15.480 stuff.

00:54:16.980 And then she

00:54:17.740 goes on with

00:54:18.320 her criticism,

00:54:19.140 and they didn't

00:54:19.600 make any sense

00:54:20.260 at all.

00:54:20.700 They really

00:54:21.820 didn't.

00:54:22.800 Because, for

00:54:23.720 example, Dr.

00:54:26.960 Scott Alice was

00:54:27.980 saying that maybe

00:54:28.760 we should have

00:54:29.260 football, because

00:54:30.880 football players

00:54:31.840 tend to be

00:54:32.380 healthy, young,

00:54:33.760 youngish specimens.

00:54:36.060 So, therefore,

00:54:36.900 the odds of a

00:54:37.820 football player

00:54:38.600 dying from

00:54:40.120 coronavirus is

00:54:41.060 low, therefore

00:54:42.600 we should do

00:54:44.340 that.

00:54:45.060 And the CNN

00:54:45.780 journalist, not

00:54:47.840 a doctor, says,

00:54:49.640 oh, he's so

00:54:50.300 wrong, and

00:54:51.320 then gives

00:54:51.860 examples of

00:54:52.700 young people

00:54:53.300 who had

00:54:53.840 problems.

00:54:54.840 Now, is

00:54:55.700 that the

00:54:56.220 right answer

00:54:56.980 to the

00:54:58.880 professional who

00:54:59.820 says young

00:55:00.600 people are,

00:55:01.880 you know,

00:55:02.740 quite protected?

00:55:04.280 Now, when

00:55:05.060 Dr.

00:55:05.460 Alice is

00:55:05.900 speaking, did

00:55:07.340 anybody

00:55:07.860 interpret him

00:55:08.560 to say no

00:55:09.860 young person

00:55:10.540 will ever get

00:55:11.240 coronavirus, or

00:55:12.820 that no young 0.70

00:55:13.520 person will

00:55:14.100 ever have a

00:55:14.620 problem with

00:55:15.160 the coronavirus?

00:55:16.360 No, he

00:55:17.440 wouldn't say

00:55:17.900 that.

00:55:18.480 Nobody would

00:55:19.140 say that, but

00:55:20.440 the CNN

00:55:21.180 critique of

00:55:22.180 him pretends

00:55:23.480 as if he

00:55:24.100 did, and

00:55:25.180 then they

00:55:25.580 criticize the

00:55:26.520 thing that

00:55:26.900 didn't happen,

00:55:27.860 which is the

00:55:28.700 absolute part

00:55:29.540 of it.

00:55:30.160 So, by

00:55:30.560 showing that

00:55:31.120 there are

00:55:31.480 exceptions, and

00:55:32.840 that there's a

00:55:34.100 growing number

00:55:34.800 of youngish

00:55:36.060 people who are

00:55:36.960 having problems

00:55:37.600 with the

00:55:37.940 coronavirus, is

00:55:39.260 there anybody

00:55:39.680 who didn't

00:55:40.280 already know

00:55:40.940 that?

00:55:41.900 No.

00:55:42.360 there's nobody

00:55:46.660 who didn't

00:55:47.340 know that.

00:55:48.800 Everybody knew

00:55:50.120 that even

00:55:51.600 young people

00:55:52.560 can sometimes,

00:55:54.780 doesn't happen

00:55:55.740 often, but can

00:55:57.220 sometimes have

00:55:58.780 pretty serious

00:55:59.660 problems, including

00:56:00.520 death, I would

00:56:01.100 suppose.

00:56:02.180 Who doesn't

00:56:03.040 know that?

00:56:03.800 Nobody.

00:56:04.520 Everybody knows

00:56:05.140 that.

00:56:05.960 So, when the

00:56:06.980 doctor says these

00:56:08.660 young people are

00:56:09.480 safe, he means

00:56:10.880 safe enough.

00:56:13.320 But, when the

00:56:15.080 analyst talks

00:56:15.980 about the

00:56:16.600 danger from

00:56:17.520 closing down, the

00:56:19.200 journalist says

00:56:20.760 that the closing

00:56:22.200 down is the

00:56:23.020 better solution,

00:56:24.460 while the

00:56:24.920 doctor is

00:56:25.700 suggesting that

00:56:27.060 you need some

00:56:27.680 balance between

00:56:29.100 the economy and

00:56:30.600 the lifestyle and

00:56:31.700 the health and

00:56:32.900 the risks.

00:56:34.020 So, the doctor

00:56:34.800 is looking at

00:56:35.700 the whole picture

00:56:37.100 that includes the

00:56:38.340 health impact,

00:56:39.400 mental and

00:56:39.880 otherwise,

00:56:40.200 from the

00:56:41.200 close down,

00:56:42.380 calculating the

00:56:43.340 risks to the

00:56:44.300 young, the

00:56:45.040 old, and then

00:56:46.140 the economic

00:56:46.760 thing.

00:56:47.180 In other words,

00:56:48.180 the doctor is

00:56:49.100 looking at all

00:56:49.900 the things that

00:56:50.620 matter and

00:56:51.680 ignoring none of

00:56:52.880 the things that

00:56:53.440 matter.

00:56:54.320 The journalist is

00:56:55.440 criticizing him by

00:56:57.180 ignoring half of

00:56:58.360 the equation, the

00:57:00.000 economic part, as

00:57:01.400 if it doesn't

00:57:01.880 matter.

00:57:02.640 Just don't even

00:57:03.500 talk about it.

00:57:04.520 You just say,

00:57:05.120 well, if we

00:57:06.720 don't close down,

00:57:07.640 people will die

00:57:08.460 because they'll

00:57:09.360 get more of

00:57:09.800 the virus.

00:57:10.880 How in the

00:57:11.680 world does that

00:57:12.420 end?

00:57:13.480 What's the end

00:57:14.400 state of that

00:57:15.000 plan?

00:57:16.520 Because he's

00:57:17.240 still probably

00:57:17.760 going to get

00:57:18.120 the virus just

00:57:18.980 later.

00:57:20.300 See, Europe.

00:57:21.900 Didn't Europe

00:57:22.440 get the virus

00:57:23.280 later?

00:57:23.840 They're having

00:57:24.320 another wave

00:57:25.200 after the

00:57:25.800 successful

00:57:26.240 close down.

00:57:27.420 Even New

00:57:27.880 Zealand got

00:57:28.720 another case of

00:57:30.500 it, but they'll

00:57:31.200 probably do a

00:57:31.960 good job because

00:57:32.520 they're so small.

00:57:33.080 so it is

00:57:36.820 ludicrous to

00:57:37.740 watch somebody

00:57:38.500 who is a

00:57:39.120 journalist

00:57:39.600 ignoring at

00:57:41.540 least 50% of

00:57:42.980 the entire

00:57:43.480 equation and

00:57:45.020 criticizing the

00:57:45.960 guy who

00:57:46.880 explicitly included

00:57:48.340 all of the

00:57:49.000 equation.

00:57:50.360 Showed his 0.53

00:57:51.040 work.

00:57:52.280 There's nothing

00:57:53.060 that the doctor

00:57:53.660 is doing that

00:57:54.220 isn't, you

00:57:55.220 know, check

00:57:55.680 for yourself.

00:57:57.100 Go look for

00:57:58.200 yourself.

00:57:59.220 Here's my

00:57:59.980 opinion.

00:58:00.480 You'll see it's

00:58:01.020 compatible with

00:58:01.860 everything.

00:58:03.080 So, there's

00:58:07.280 that.

00:58:11.880 So, yesterday

00:58:13.520 I was tweeting

00:58:14.360 that I'm

00:58:15.620 frustrated that

00:58:16.580 this far into

00:58:17.720 the pandemic, we

00:58:18.640 still don't know

00:58:19.320 if masks work.

00:58:22.120 Are you

00:58:22.760 kidding me?

00:58:23.840 Now, I have a

00:58:24.520 little update on

00:58:25.120 that.

00:58:25.700 So, I think

00:58:26.680 maybe the main

00:58:28.200 voice of masks

00:58:29.820 are perhaps

00:58:31.360 unproven, at

00:58:33.060 least, is Alex

00:58:34.080 Berenson.

00:58:34.980 Most of you

00:58:35.440 know him from

00:58:36.080 Twitter, from

00:58:36.900 had worked at

00:58:38.380 the New York

00:58:38.760 Times.

00:58:39.820 So, I think he's

00:58:40.540 the probably

00:58:41.960 most noted

00:58:43.700 voice for

00:58:45.700 the science

00:58:46.820 is not

00:58:47.540 conclusive on

00:58:48.580 some things

00:58:49.180 don't act like

00:58:49.840 it is.

00:58:50.940 And one of the

00:58:51.700 things the

00:58:52.100 science seems

00:58:53.400 to be not as

00:58:54.260 conclusive as

00:58:55.100 we'd like is

00:58:55.760 this mask

00:58:56.420 stuff.

00:58:56.860 And so, I

00:58:57.860 was quite

00:58:58.280 interested that

00:58:59.100 Tucker Carlson

00:58:59.860 had him on

00:59:00.440 last night.

00:59:01.740 So, right

00:59:02.320 after I was

00:59:03.280 sort of asking

00:59:04.960 the question,

00:59:06.040 do we really

00:59:06.720 not know

00:59:07.360 now if

00:59:08.840 masks work?

00:59:10.060 Seriously?

00:59:10.860 All these

00:59:11.460 medical professionals

00:59:12.420 recommending it?

00:59:13.560 We don't know.

00:59:15.240 So, before

00:59:16.140 Alex Berenson

00:59:16.920 was on as

00:59:17.580 Tucker Carlson's

00:59:18.420 guest, he

00:59:18.840 had Dr.

00:59:19.820 Siegel, the

00:59:21.180 doctor you see

00:59:21.940 on Fox News

00:59:22.800 all the time.

00:59:23.380 And he

00:59:24.020 asked, Tucker

00:59:24.700 asked Dr.

00:59:25.400 Siegel about

00:59:25.940 the science

00:59:26.580 of masks.

00:59:27.700 Now, this is

00:59:28.400 the right way

00:59:28.880 to go because

00:59:29.620 Dr.

00:59:30.820 Siegel's a

00:59:31.260 doctor.

00:59:32.080 He's obviously

00:59:32.700 looking into

00:59:33.320 this quite

00:59:34.200 deeply.

00:59:36.040 Alex Berenson

00:59:36.920 would be more

00:59:38.060 in the

00:59:38.400 journalist,

00:59:39.440 non-doctor

00:59:40.300 category.

00:59:42.420 And so, I

00:59:42.880 thought, what's

00:59:43.580 going to happen

00:59:44.180 here?

00:59:45.120 If first

00:59:45.840 Tucker asks

00:59:46.800 a doctor

00:59:47.380 about masks

00:59:48.420 and then his

00:59:49.720 very next guest

00:59:50.640 is the

00:59:51.020 anti-mask guy,

00:59:51.980 are we going

00:59:52.260 to get a

00:59:52.760 difference of

00:59:53.840 opinion here?

00:59:54.920 And I was

00:59:55.620 quite surprised.

01:00:01.240 Somebody says,

01:00:02.340 Scott, I

01:00:03.120 believe you

01:00:03.520 blocked people

01:00:04.200 for questioning

01:00:04.880 and saying

01:00:05.620 just this.

01:00:06.320 That is

01:00:06.580 correct.

01:00:07.840 And I'm

01:00:08.760 not changing

01:00:09.280 that opinion.

01:00:11.140 So, just to

01:00:11.720 clarify, yes, I

01:00:12.900 do block people

01:00:13.600 who say masks

01:00:14.400 don't work,

01:00:15.600 and probably

01:00:16.240 will continue

01:00:16.840 to, only

01:00:17.840 because I

01:00:18.960 think it's

01:00:19.240 obvious.

01:00:20.240 It's just

01:00:20.960 obvious they

01:00:21.520 do.

01:00:21.680 And you

01:00:23.960 don't need

01:00:24.260 too much

01:00:24.560 science.

01:00:24.960 So, Dr.

01:00:25.660 Siegel was

01:00:26.080 asked, and

01:00:26.620 his response

01:00:27.440 was there

01:00:27.900 have been

01:00:28.340 studies, and

01:00:29.980 the studies

01:00:30.400 show that

01:00:30.800 they work.

01:00:32.380 Okay, did

01:00:32.880 you hear

01:00:33.120 that?

01:00:33.700 When a

01:00:34.300 doctor was

01:00:34.960 asked, and

01:00:36.220 this is a

01:00:36.800 Fox News

01:00:37.720 doctor, in

01:00:38.600 other words,

01:00:39.000 that's his

01:00:39.340 main association,

01:00:40.480 Dr.

01:00:40.800 Siegel, so

01:00:41.920 you would

01:00:42.260 expect that

01:00:43.800 if there was

01:00:44.220 even a little

01:00:44.820 bit of

01:00:45.180 information to

01:00:46.040 suggest that

01:00:46.820 masks were a

01:00:47.700 little overdone

01:00:48.380 and maybe

01:00:49.340 not

01:00:49.580 proven, you

01:00:50.560 would expect

01:00:51.200 a Fox

01:00:52.000 News medical

01:00:53.480 expert to

01:00:54.140 say, you

01:00:54.440 know, there's

01:00:56.000 no evidence

01:00:56.540 for it.

01:00:57.640 But he

01:00:58.080 didn't.

01:00:58.740 He referred

01:00:59.300 to studies

01:01:00.060 of enclosed

01:01:01.320 spaces.

01:01:02.740 He did note

01:01:03.540 that wearing a

01:01:04.240 mask outdoors

01:01:04.920 when you're

01:01:05.420 taking a walk

01:01:06.040 would be

01:01:06.540 overkill.

01:01:07.320 I guess we

01:01:07.840 all knew

01:01:08.160 that.

01:01:09.260 But he

01:01:09.640 said there's

01:01:10.040 science.

01:01:11.180 And the

01:01:11.420 science was

01:01:11.960 not just the

01:01:13.160 lab kind of

01:01:13.960 science, which

01:01:14.940 is what the

01:01:15.620 journalists will

01:01:16.320 often refer to.

01:01:17.220 because the

01:01:18.320 lab experiments

01:01:19.340 are ambiguous.

01:01:21.220 You'll see a

01:01:21.820 lab experiment

01:01:22.560 where they

01:01:22.920 tried to put

01:01:23.420 some virus

01:01:23.960 through a

01:01:24.480 mask and

01:01:25.460 it either

01:01:25.800 helped or

01:01:26.240 it didn't

01:01:26.680 or it

01:01:27.040 came out

01:01:27.460 the size

01:01:27.900 or it

01:01:28.240 didn't or

01:01:28.780 it floated

01:01:29.660 into the

01:01:30.060 air or it

01:01:30.560 didn't or

01:01:31.000 it became

01:01:31.340 more aerosol

01:01:32.180 and stayed

01:01:32.580 in the air

01:01:33.000 or it

01:01:33.280 didn't.

01:01:34.300 None of

01:01:34.920 that is

01:01:35.260 useful.

01:01:36.920 Every bit

01:01:37.900 of that

01:01:38.620 stuff is

01:01:40.100 useless.

01:01:41.160 Because it

01:01:41.820 doesn't tell

01:01:42.360 you how that

01:01:42.940 translates into

01:01:43.680 the real

01:01:44.040 world.

01:01:44.820 It tells

01:01:45.180 you what

01:01:45.480 might happen,

01:01:46.140 but it

01:01:47.140 doesn't tell

01:01:47.560 you the

01:01:47.880 odds of

01:01:48.400 anything.

01:01:50.040 So what

01:01:51.100 does matter

01:01:51.740 is real

01:01:52.360 people using

01:01:53.040 masks in

01:01:53.880 real environments

01:01:54.640 and those

01:01:55.280 are the

01:01:55.500 types of

01:01:55.940 studies that

01:01:56.660 Dr.

01:01:57.180 Siegel

01:01:57.400 referred to

01:01:57.980 that when

01:01:58.880 real people

01:01:59.480 wore masks

01:02:00.220 in places

01:02:00.780 that you

01:02:01.140 compare to

01:02:02.100 similar

01:02:03.300 situations

01:02:04.080 with masks

01:02:05.000 and without

01:02:06.000 all working

01:02:07.320 with COVID

01:02:07.860 patients,

01:02:08.480 I think

01:02:08.920 that's the

01:02:09.320 situation,

01:02:10.620 the mask

01:02:11.180 wearers did

01:02:11.800 much better

01:02:12.360 than the

01:02:12.820 non-mask

01:02:13.340 wearers.

01:02:13.780 It's

01:02:13.940 pretty

01:02:14.160 clear.

01:02:15.800 And there

01:02:16.140 you go.

01:02:16.940 Now that

01:02:17.280 would be

01:02:17.560 very convincing.

01:02:20.120 Now were

01:02:20.440 they the

01:02:22.360 controlled,

01:02:23.400 randomized

01:02:23.740 studies?

01:02:24.720 I don't

01:02:25.360 know, but I

01:02:26.000 don't think

01:02:26.440 so.

01:02:27.020 But I

01:02:27.440 also don't

01:02:28.080 know that

01:02:28.540 that would

01:02:28.960 be as

01:02:29.560 important in

01:02:30.320 this situation.

01:02:32.240 As I like

01:02:33.140 to point out,

01:02:34.320 we've all

01:02:34.800 been hypnotized

01:02:35.860 into thinking

01:02:36.480 you can only

01:02:37.080 make a

01:02:37.460 medical decision

01:02:38.240 if you have

01:02:38.760 a randomized,

01:02:39.740 controlled,

01:02:40.240 double-blind

01:02:41.760 study with

01:02:43.440 enough people

01:02:44.100 and you've

01:02:44.540 done everything

01:02:44.960 right and

01:02:45.460 it's been

01:02:45.760 peer-reviewed

01:02:46.620 and it's

01:02:46.800 been repeated.

01:02:47.840 So we

01:02:48.380 all understand

01:02:49.080 that's the

01:02:50.000 gold standard.

01:02:51.880 But did

01:02:52.340 you know

01:02:52.840 that 20%

01:02:55.000 of all

01:02:55.460 prescriptions

01:02:56.120 written by

01:02:56.840 actual trained

01:02:57.840 medical doctors

01:02:58.740 are for

01:02:59.820 off-label

01:03:00.520 use of a

01:03:01.680 drug?

01:03:02.340 In other

01:03:02.740 words,

01:03:03.080 for a use

01:03:03.720 that hasn't

01:03:04.180 been tested

01:03:04.720 in any

01:03:05.740 kind of a

01:03:06.140 trial.

01:03:06.640 Not a

01:03:07.260 randomized

01:03:07.640 controlled

01:03:08.280 trial,

01:03:08.620 not even

01:03:10.300 a bad

01:03:10.660 trial,

01:03:11.540 just never

01:03:12.120 been tested.

01:03:13.700 20%

01:03:14.660 of all

01:03:16.220 prescriptions

01:03:16.780 have never

01:03:18.000 been tested.

01:03:19.400 Is that

01:03:20.160 wrong?

01:03:21.400 No.

01:03:22.260 No.

01:03:22.720 Because

01:03:23.200 if the

01:03:24.620 risk is

01:03:25.280 really low

01:03:25.920 and if

01:03:27.140 the hypothesis

01:03:28.100 that the

01:03:28.740 doctor is

01:03:29.300 working on

01:03:29.920 makes sense

01:03:31.280 and the

01:03:32.280 patient and

01:03:32.880 the doctor

01:03:33.260 work it

01:03:33.640 out,

01:03:34.160 it's

01:03:34.440 completely

01:03:34.980 legal and

01:03:36.540 it's

01:03:36.760 completely

01:03:37.180 legal for

01:03:37.880 a reason.

01:03:38.980 It's

01:03:39.420 better than

01:03:39.820 nothing.

01:03:40.700 As long

01:03:41.320 as you've

01:03:41.620 got really

01:03:42.120 low risk,

01:03:43.560 you don't

01:03:44.240 need to

01:03:44.780 have all

01:03:45.700 of the

01:03:46.060 certainty

01:03:46.480 that a

01:03:47.080 gold standard

01:03:47.760 trial would

01:03:48.360 give you

01:03:48.780 because your

01:03:49.780 risk management

01:03:50.600 alone tells

01:03:51.920 you to try

01:03:52.480 it.

01:03:53.120 Well, if it

01:03:53.460 doesn't cost

01:03:54.040 much and

01:03:54.460 it's not

01:03:54.800 going to

01:03:55.000 hurt me,

01:03:55.880 I don't

01:03:56.340 have to

01:03:56.720 have 100%

01:03:57.580 certainty

01:03:58.140 that it's

01:03:58.640 also effective.

01:04:00.480 I just

01:04:01.200 need a

01:04:01.880 good chance

01:04:02.460 that it's

01:04:02.800 effective and

01:04:03.460 then why

01:04:03.820 not?

01:04:04.700 What do

01:04:04.980 you got to

01:04:05.300 lose?

01:04:05.540 So that's

01:04:11.960 that.

01:04:15.460 And so

01:04:17.360 then Berenson

01:04:18.860 gets on

01:04:19.440 after Siegel

01:04:20.520 and I think

01:04:21.700 to myself,

01:04:22.620 well, what's

01:04:23.020 he going to

01:04:23.420 say?

01:04:24.960 If you're a 0.88

01:04:26.200 journalist, how

01:04:26.860 do you follow

01:04:27.420 an actual

01:04:28.100 medical

01:04:28.580 professional who

01:04:30.000 has looked

01:04:30.440 into the

01:04:30.860 science and

01:04:31.780 just proclaimed

01:04:32.500 that the

01:04:32.880 science very

01:04:33.540 strongly

01:04:34.040 recommends

01:04:34.900 masks?

01:04:36.080 What's the

01:04:36.580 journalist going

01:04:37.120 to say?

01:04:37.680 No, there's

01:04:38.160 no science?

01:04:39.860 How do you

01:04:40.320 play that?

01:04:41.560 And instead,

01:04:43.020 he talked

01:04:43.480 about something

01:04:44.000 else.

01:04:45.420 So he

01:04:46.920 didn't talk

01:04:47.960 about the

01:04:48.260 masks, Alex

01:04:49.000 didn't.

01:04:49.680 So I would

01:04:50.180 still like to

01:04:50.920 see Dr.

01:04:51.920 Siegel and

01:04:52.500 Alex Berenson

01:04:53.300 on a split

01:04:54.420 screen and

01:04:55.940 have Hannity

01:04:56.780 or somebody

01:04:57.500 ask them

01:04:58.140 both the

01:04:59.080 questions.

01:04:59.620 Say, look,

01:05:00.400 can you guys

01:05:01.260 work this out?

01:05:02.500 Tell the

01:05:03.040 public because

01:05:04.220 your messages

01:05:05.740 are not

01:05:06.200 exactly

01:05:06.740 compatible.

01:05:08.100 Now, if I

01:05:09.480 have misrepresented

01:05:10.620 Alex Berenson's

01:05:12.980 opinion on

01:05:13.760 masks, I

01:05:14.480 hope you'll

01:05:14.840 let me know

01:05:15.340 because that's

01:05:15.980 always the

01:05:16.340 dangerous thing.

01:05:17.700 Whenever people

01:05:18.920 talk about my

01:05:19.660 opinions and

01:05:20.280 criticize them,

01:05:21.340 almost every

01:05:22.620 time they get

01:05:23.160 my opinion

01:05:23.640 wrong and

01:05:24.560 they end up

01:05:25.060 criticizing their

01:05:25.900 imagination of

01:05:26.720 my opinion.

01:05:27.920 So I'm

01:05:28.500 sensitive that

01:05:29.780 I may have

01:05:30.380 been doing

01:05:30.860 the same

01:05:31.300 thing.

01:05:31.640 So somebody

01:05:32.940 will tell

01:05:33.320 me if I

01:05:33.720 have.

01:05:34.800 Because I

01:05:35.360 don't want

01:05:35.620 to misrepresent

01:05:36.540 him whatsoever.

01:05:38.940 And I

01:05:39.520 think he's a

01:05:40.220 valuable voice

01:05:41.220 because it's a

01:05:43.040 contrarian voice

01:05:44.020 that's presented

01:05:45.620 strongly.

01:05:47.240 And I think we

01:05:48.340 benefit from

01:05:49.960 contrarian voices 0.61

01:05:51.440 because sometimes

01:05:52.700 they're right.

01:05:53.420 You never

01:05:53.640 know.

01:05:54.920 All right.

01:05:55.280 I think that's

01:05:58.660 just about all

01:05:59.400 I wanted to

01:05:59.840 talk about.

01:06:01.840 One more

01:06:02.580 thing.

01:06:03.680 I hear people

01:06:04.760 say to me,

01:06:05.580 Scott, you

01:06:06.760 do realize

01:06:07.440 that we're

01:06:08.140 in an

01:06:08.660 insurgency?

01:06:12.120 Oh, somebody

01:06:12.920 says, please

01:06:13.560 help me.

01:06:14.340 How do I

01:06:14.740 explain to my

01:06:15.440 brainwashed in-laws

01:06:16.860 the Charlottesville

01:06:17.980 hoax?

01:06:18.680 There's nothing

01:06:19.360 you can do

01:06:20.080 short of showing

01:06:21.040 them the

01:06:21.860 printed transcript.

01:06:23.280 So just

01:06:24.520 Google

01:06:25.080 Charlottesville

01:06:26.420 Google the

01:06:28.220 fine people

01:06:28.860 hoax

01:06:29.340 transcript.

01:06:31.620 Enough people

01:06:32.460 have tweeted

01:06:33.080 it that it's

01:06:33.760 all over

01:06:34.120 Twitter.

01:06:34.560 You can see

01:06:34.900 it in my

01:06:35.260 Twitter account.

01:06:36.200 But make

01:06:36.540 them read

01:06:37.140 all the way

01:06:38.260 to the end.

01:06:39.680 At the end,

01:06:40.560 they're going

01:06:40.840 to go down

01:06:41.380 what I call

01:06:42.480 the fine

01:06:43.660 people hoax

01:06:44.780 funnel.

01:06:46.180 Once you

01:06:46.780 make people

01:06:47.260 read the

01:06:47.680 transcript,

01:06:48.360 they understand

01:06:48.980 that the

01:06:49.480 president said

01:06:50.020 the opposite

01:06:50.640 of what was

01:06:51.360 reported and

01:06:52.540 that he

01:06:52.840 called out

01:06:53.360 directly,

01:06:54.060 no, I'm

01:06:54.360 not talking

01:06:54.800 about the

01:06:55.380 neo-Nazis

01:06:56.200 and the

01:06:56.440 white nationalists.

01:06:57.200 They should

01:06:57.420 be condemned

01:06:57.980 totally.

01:06:59.020 Once you've

01:06:59.560 established that

01:07:00.460 what the

01:07:00.780 person believed

01:07:01.520 the president

01:07:01.980 said is the

01:07:02.780 opposite,

01:07:03.900 they will

01:07:04.380 always retreat

01:07:05.660 to this

01:07:06.860 secondary position.

01:07:08.200 Always.

01:07:09.040 Every single

01:07:10.160 time.

01:07:11.420 And that

01:07:11.720 will be,

01:07:12.600 yeah, but

01:07:13.040 there were

01:07:13.280 no fine

01:07:13.660 people there.

01:07:15.420 Now, my

01:07:16.660 argument is,

01:07:17.440 I interviewed

01:07:18.000 them.

01:07:18.900 People actually

01:07:19.760 contacted me and

01:07:20.660 said, I was

01:07:21.120 there, I'm a

01:07:21.800 fine person.

01:07:22.320 And I said,

01:07:23.240 well, I'll

01:07:23.540 prove it.

01:07:24.500 Got on the

01:07:25.160 phone with

01:07:25.580 them, got the

01:07:26.840 whole story so

01:07:27.580 I knew they

01:07:27.940 were real

01:07:28.320 people, asked

01:07:30.000 if they'd

01:07:31.020 mind I

01:07:31.400 use their

01:07:31.820 name.

01:07:32.940 Some of

01:07:33.420 them said

01:07:33.760 yes.

01:07:34.940 And then I

01:07:35.440 said, well,

01:07:35.880 you're freaking

01:07:36.320 crazy.

01:07:36.760 I'm not going

01:07:37.060 to use your

01:07:37.440 name.

01:07:38.200 I don't want

01:07:38.600 you to get

01:07:38.960 killed.

01:07:40.500 I don't want

01:07:41.680 you to lose

01:07:42.060 your job.

01:07:42.940 I mean, it's

01:07:43.200 great that you're

01:07:43.900 willing to let

01:07:45.540 your name be

01:07:46.100 out there as

01:07:46.600 one of the

01:07:46.940 people who's

01:07:47.400 not a racist,

01:07:49.160 disavowed the

01:07:50.040 racists, and

01:07:51.200 we're just

01:07:51.560 there for

01:07:51.920 historical

01:07:52.520 monument reasons,

01:07:53.980 and you

01:07:54.260 thought you

01:07:54.580 were a fine

01:07:54.960 person.

01:07:55.680 I said, there's

01:07:56.380 no way I'm

01:07:57.100 going to give

01:07:57.420 your name in

01:07:57.940 public.

01:07:59.020 You would just

01:07:59.620 be buried.

01:08:00.780 There's just no

01:08:01.340 way I'm going to

01:08:01.780 do it.

01:08:02.060 But they

01:08:02.400 offer it.

01:08:03.420 So when people

01:08:04.060 say to me,

01:08:05.060 well, can you

01:08:05.600 prove it?

01:08:06.580 You say it, but

01:08:07.520 can you prove it?

01:08:08.380 And the answer

01:08:08.780 is, nope.

01:08:10.540 Nope.

01:08:10.980 I'm not going to

01:08:11.500 try to prove that

01:08:12.320 because I

01:08:13.780 don't want you

01:08:14.380 to know the

01:08:15.080 name of anybody

01:08:15.840 whose life would

01:08:16.580 be destroyed just

01:08:18.040 because they

01:08:18.380 thought they were

01:08:18.820 showing up to

01:08:19.360 support some

01:08:19.940 monuments.

01:08:20.880 And then they'll

01:08:21.240 say, Pascot,

01:08:22.240 Pascot, don't

01:08:23.360 you know that it

01:08:24.340 was organized by

01:08:25.280 the neo-Nazis?

01:08:27.260 So anybody who

01:08:28.300 goes to something

01:08:29.260 that's organized by

01:08:30.840 neo-Nazis, well, 0.88

01:08:32.660 they've got to be

01:08:33.340 neo-Nazis.

01:08:34.460 To which I say,

01:08:35.680 there was a

01:08:36.540 religious group

01:08:37.240 there.

01:08:38.320 The police were

01:08:39.340 there.

01:08:39.640 They're not neo-Nazis.

01:08:40.900 They went there for

01:08:41.560 their own reasons,

01:08:42.180 to protect people.

01:08:43.760 How about the

01:08:44.340 medical people and

01:08:45.480 the ambulances and

01:08:46.560 stuff, which were

01:08:47.240 probably nearby,

01:08:48.220 right?

01:08:48.740 Were they neo-Nazis?

01:08:49.940 They went to a

01:08:50.480 neo-Nazi event?

01:08:51.740 No, it's because

01:08:52.480 they had their own

01:08:53.280 reasons.

01:08:54.380 They're protecting

01:08:55.240 the health.

01:08:56.180 How about Antifa?

01:08:57.580 They went to the

01:08:58.200 same event.

01:08:59.500 Are they neo-Nazis?

01:09:01.080 No.

01:09:01.600 They went there for

01:09:02.200 their own reasons.

01:09:03.640 It's a free country.

01:09:05.200 If somebody says

01:09:06.180 there's going to be a

01:09:06.880 thing in the

01:09:08.060 United States, a lot

01:09:09.780 of people show up

01:09:10.740 and they don't have

01:09:11.340 the same opinions.

01:09:12.660 Have you ever seen

01:09:13.480 a thousand Americans

01:09:14.640 in one place that

01:09:15.620 had the same

01:09:16.100 opinion?

01:09:17.200 Never.

01:09:18.540 You can't put a

01:09:19.400 thousand Americans

01:09:20.260 in one place on

01:09:21.440 any topic and

01:09:22.960 they all got the

01:09:23.920 same opinion.

01:09:25.100 So you can

01:09:25.720 guarantee, just by

01:09:27.040 the fact that there

01:09:27.660 were however many

01:09:28.880 people that were

01:09:29.520 there, you can

01:09:30.480 guarantee that some

01:09:31.400 of them were not

01:09:32.160 racist, but also

01:09:33.740 thought the statues

01:09:35.000 should remain.

01:09:36.280 Here's the kill

01:09:36.920 shot.

01:09:38.020 Once you've taken

01:09:38.780 them down the funnel

01:09:39.580 and you've said,

01:09:41.120 of course, in

01:09:42.340 America you're

01:09:43.020 always going to

01:09:43.380 get a diverse

01:09:44.000 group.

01:09:45.100 Mention diversity.

01:09:46.600 The person you're

01:09:47.600 talking to loves

01:09:48.800 diversity.

01:09:50.060 So you say, look,

01:09:51.240 it's America.

01:09:52.460 You have a big

01:09:53.120 public event.

01:09:54.300 It's going to be a

01:09:55.180 diverse group.

01:09:56.540 It's a good line

01:09:57.320 because they like

01:09:57.880 diversity.

01:09:58.920 And diversity

01:09:59.360 means some people

01:10:00.540 are going to be

01:10:00.980 different from you.

01:10:02.380 And then here's the

01:10:03.340 kill shot.

01:10:03.860 Polls say there's

01:10:05.960 something like

01:10:06.760 somewhere between

01:10:07.920 25% and a third

01:10:09.640 of black Americans

01:10:12.100 support keeping

01:10:13.520 the statues.

01:10:15.020 Are they bad

01:10:15.920 people?

01:10:18.540 That's when you

01:10:19.320 walk away.

01:10:20.400 That's your mic

01:10:21.120 drop a moment.

01:10:22.880 So your mic drop

01:10:23.680 is once your

01:10:25.180 combatant has

01:10:27.000 said, there's no

01:10:28.240 way anybody who

01:10:29.400 shows up could

01:10:30.660 possibly be a fine

01:10:32.040 person because

01:10:32.820 anybody who

01:10:34.360 supports confederate

01:10:35.300 statues by

01:10:36.540 definition is a

01:10:37.580 bad person.

01:10:38.880 And then you

01:10:39.320 hold your mic like

01:10:40.200 this and you say,

01:10:42.260 polls say about

01:10:43.320 a third of black

01:10:44.360 Americans are okay

01:10:45.460 with the statues

01:10:46.140 for just historical

01:10:47.280 reasons.

01:10:48.400 Mic drop.

01:10:50.180 Turn and walk

01:10:51.060 away.

01:10:52.500 All right.

01:10:52.800 Because if your

01:10:53.460 friend can explain

01:10:54.280 why black people 1.00

01:10:55.260 are okay, at

01:10:55.940 least some

01:10:56.900 percentage, are

01:10:58.100 okay with them

01:10:58.700 for historical

01:10:59.520 reasons, well,

01:11:01.240 good luck with

01:11:01.700 that.

01:11:01.880 I've never seen

01:11:02.640 anybody try to

01:11:03.220 explain that.

01:11:04.600 All right.

01:11:04.880 So I was talking

01:11:05.660 about the insurgency.

01:11:06.720 Somebody asked me,

01:11:07.620 do you know we're

01:11:08.720 in an insurgency?

01:11:09.960 To which I say,

01:11:11.460 sure, it looks like

01:11:12.180 one, but who's in

01:11:13.660 charge?

01:11:15.500 Who's in charge of

01:11:16.420 the insurgency?

01:11:17.620 And moreover, what

01:11:18.880 would it look like if

01:11:19.740 they got what they

01:11:20.380 wanted?

01:11:21.380 Does the insurgency

01:11:22.560 want to destroy

01:11:23.600 capitalism and take

01:11:24.740 over?

01:11:25.800 Well, good luck.

01:11:26.840 What exactly would

01:11:27.860 they be taking over?

01:11:28.820 If you destroy

01:11:30.320 capitalism and then

01:11:32.000 you take over, you're

01:11:34.040 just a pre-Chinese 1.00

01:11:35.080 company, a big

01:11:36.740 country.

01:11:37.480 Basically, any

01:11:38.420 country that has a

01:11:39.280 military can just

01:11:40.740 walk right over you

01:11:42.200 the next time they

01:11:42.800 want to, and then

01:11:43.840 your capitalism will

01:11:44.680 come right back, but

01:11:45.520 you'll be Chinese.

01:11:47.260 I guess that's

01:11:47.840 capitalism of a

01:11:48.680 sort.

01:11:49.640 All right.

01:11:50.140 Somebody says

01:11:50.740 Soros. 0.78

01:11:52.360 I don't know.

01:11:53.860 Does Soros want to

01:11:54.840 be the king?

01:11:55.540 Who would be in

01:11:56.280 charge?

01:11:57.760 If the insurgents

01:11:58.880 won, what do they

01:11:59.740 get?

01:12:00.640 I would like to see

01:12:01.620 somebody game that

01:12:02.600 out and say, hey,

01:12:04.020 Antifa, wouldn't you

01:12:05.700 like to see Antifa

01:12:06.780 interviewed about their

01:12:08.620 vision of the future?

01:12:10.520 That's sort of

01:12:11.120 missing, isn't it?

01:12:12.320 Hey, Antifa, can you

01:12:13.980 tell us what the

01:12:14.700 future looks like if

01:12:16.040 you got what you

01:12:16.720 wanted?

01:12:17.880 What's, you know,

01:12:18.520 game it out for us

01:12:19.300 10 years from now,

01:12:20.160 what's the country

01:12:20.740 look like?

01:12:22.760 Good luck with that.

01:12:24.020 They can't.

01:12:24.640 And they should be

01:12:26.020 forced to describe

01:12:27.660 what the country

01:12:28.460 looks like, how it

01:12:30.080 makes money, and

01:12:31.700 how it's allocated,

01:12:33.180 and how crime is

01:12:34.680 handled 10 years

01:12:36.260 from now, if they

01:12:36.920 got everything they

01:12:37.680 wanted.

01:12:38.900 All right.

01:12:39.920 That's all for now.

01:12:40.940 I'll talk to you

01:12:41.660 later.
