Summary

Join me for the dopamine hit of the day, the thing that makes everything better, called the " simultaneous sip" and helps you remember the entire sequence of the "sip" that you do every single morning.


Transcript

00:00:00.000 Hey everybody, I didn't see you. Come on in here. I'm glad you showed up. It's about time.
00:00:18.680 Yes, this is the place you go to get your day off to a good, good start.
00:00:24.840 And it's going to work today. I'm sorry about the leaf blower that seems to be blowing leaves right outside of my window.
00:00:34.120 Quite annoying. And I guarantee you that it will last the entire time I'm on Periscope. Why?
00:00:41.140 I don't know, but apparently there are a lot of leaves exactly in front of my window of my office.
00:00:48.140 No place else. But it's going to spend a good hour right in front of my window.
00:00:52.620 So that's how my morning starting off, but yours will be better.
00:00:56.080 And all you need is the simultaneous sip. And watch this. Watch this.
00:01:00.320 Normally, I have the introduction to the simultaneous sip written on this piece of paper.
00:01:06.160 Because after years of doing it every single morning, I can't remember it.
00:01:11.580 But watch this.
00:01:12.420 And all you need is a cup or mug or a glass, a tankard, chalice, or stein, a canteen jug or a flasp, a vessel of any kind.
00:01:26.080 Boom.
00:01:26.560 Join me now for the dopamine hit of the day, the thing that makes everything better.
00:01:34.380 It's called the simultaneous sip.
00:01:36.120 Who would be calling me during the simultaneous sip?
00:01:38.520 I mean, really, who calls me during the simultaneous sip?
00:01:43.940 Join me now for the simultaneous sip that makes everything better. Go.
00:01:47.640 Now, you might ask yourself, Scott, how is it that today is the day you can remember the entire sequence of the simultaneous sip?
00:02:02.580 And the answer is this.
00:02:04.320 It has to do with how people learn.
00:02:06.000 I think it was yesterday, I got in the mail, a suspicious box.
00:02:13.040 And I opened it up, and it was a whole bunch of wrapped up different items.
00:02:17.380 And I thought to myself, this could be bad.
00:02:21.680 I don't know what this is all about.
00:02:23.940 And I started opening them up, and it's a whole bunch of different items.
00:02:27.780 And it was presented as a puzzle.
00:02:30.480 There was a little note in there saying it was a mystery box.
00:02:32.700 And so I assembled the mystery, and I realized that it was one item for each of the things that I say in the simultaneous sip.
00:02:42.260 So I organized them on my table.
00:02:45.800 And by the way, this was sent by somebody named Amy.
00:02:49.440 That's all I know, somebody who watches the simultaneous sip.
00:02:54.580 I assume you're watching now.
00:02:55.860 Hi, Amy.
00:02:56.900 And thank you for solving my problem.
00:02:59.600 So my problem was that people learn different ways.
00:03:03.200 And I could read something a million times, and I would never be able to memorize it, no matter how much exposure I had.
00:03:10.440 My brain just doesn't work that specific way.
00:03:15.040 But the moment it was visual, and I could touch it and feel it and put it on my table and then look at it, memory was instant.
00:03:25.480 So now let me take this to the world of education.
00:03:29.600 If you're thinking to yourself, hey, school got worse because it used to be in person.
00:03:35.200 People think that's pretty good for a lot of reasons.
00:03:37.820 Now it's just watching a video of a teacher.
00:03:41.060 Much, much worse.
00:03:42.740 But if you can imagine what the world will be like when you can learn anything in a virtual reality world or an augmented reality where you see the real world,
00:03:53.740 but there are items placed into it that weren't there before.
00:03:56.340 So, for example, if I were trying to remember that sequence, I could have just, you know, called up those images, looked at them, and then memorized them.
00:04:06.540 But the ability to give you the kind of learning you need, everybody being a little bit different, is extraordinary.
00:04:14.400 So pretty much all of the stuff that's non-visual in the current learning environment could become visual.
00:04:21.980 That one change, just taking all the stuff that you just have to memorize, names and dates and stuff like that,
00:04:29.440 and just turning them into something visual, an actual movie that you live in.
00:04:33.680 You're not watching it.
00:04:35.040 You're living inside it.
00:04:36.180 So where education can go, it's probably three times as good as what it is now.
00:04:44.000 But we're not there.
00:04:45.580 We will be.
00:04:46.360 I'll bet in five years you're going to have the beginning of the augmented reality education,
00:04:52.300 and it's going to be mind-blowing.
00:04:53.880 It'll be better than in person, by far.
00:04:57.020 All right.
00:04:57.560 I've got a new rule that I try not to watch the news after 5 p.m. my time.
00:05:04.340 It's hard, but the news is so unpleasant.
00:05:09.300 And by the way, I would also lump in there any kind of entertainment drama.
00:05:14.700 Anything that has an element to the entertainment that there's danger or tension or stress or just bad things happening to people,
00:05:24.920 I'm going to try to avoid them after 5 p.m.
00:05:27.760 I would try to avoid them all day long, except that I do this.
00:05:32.060 So it would be hard to avoid the news and do these periscopes.
00:05:36.080 So I tried that last night, and that involved not watching the Democratic Convention.
00:05:42.740 But that doesn't mean I'm not going to comment on it, because I did catch up on it this morning.
00:05:48.140 Watched the key videos and the highlights.
00:05:49.960 And I think that watching the highlights tells you maybe even more than watching every detail of the actual convention.
00:05:58.560 And here's the reason.
00:05:59.840 The things that get pulled out as the highlight clips or the things to remember,
00:06:05.040 you imagine CNN, MSNBC, etc.,
00:06:08.360 they're deciding what opinions to give the public.
00:06:12.860 And you can watch it in real time.
00:06:14.260 So you may have watched the convention on your own and had your own opinions about it.
00:06:19.780 But then you turn on the news, and they tell you what to think about it.
00:06:24.460 And at the end of the news programs, after you've seen a few of these opinions that are similar,
00:06:29.400 you start thinking, yeah, that's what I think.
00:06:32.720 It actually, you can watch them assign your opinion to you about what you felt about the convention
00:06:39.940 after you watched it.
00:06:42.160 So your own feelings about it, you brought to CNN.
00:06:46.760 And by the time you're done watching, you're thinking, yeah, Kamala Harris, she was a tour de force.
00:06:53.200 You know, assuming that you're leading in that direction to begin with.
00:06:57.080 So watching that in real time is disturbing and fascinating.
00:07:02.820 So I have lots of comments about that.
00:07:04.620 First of all, have you noticed that the big thing that people are saying about Joe Biden
00:07:10.460 is that he listens, he cares, and he has empathy?
00:07:15.420 I assume that's because Democrats believe that's the part of his brain that's still working.
00:07:22.300 Because if they thought to themselves, you know, Joe Biden is a lot smarter than President Trump,
00:07:29.860 I feel as if they would mention that.
00:07:32.380 If they thought that Joe Biden was better at, let's say, strategy than President Trump,
00:07:40.660 I feel like they would have mentioned that.
00:07:43.880 If he were better at really just getting things done,
00:07:49.120 I feel like they would have mentioned that.
00:07:52.400 But instead, they go for the one thing that you are sure is true,
00:07:56.580 that Biden cares and he listens and he shows empathy.
00:07:59.900 And I would say that he does all of those things.
00:08:02.840 In fact, I will go further.
00:08:04.860 I would say that Biden shows the caring and the empathy better than President Trump.
00:08:10.520 Boom.
00:08:11.820 Better than President Trump.
00:08:14.480 That's also why you should not elect him your president.
00:08:19.000 Because the best feature of Joe Biden is literally a flaw.
00:08:24.440 Now, why do I say that?
00:08:25.860 It's the same reason I say that I'm a terrible manager.
00:08:29.540 If you want somebody to manage your, let's say, your big division of your corporation,
00:08:35.720 don't ask me to do it because I'm bad at that.
00:08:40.640 And the main reason I'm bad at that is too much empathy.
00:08:45.200 Too much empathy.
00:08:45.940 The job of a manager and or a leader is to make people do stuff they don't want to do.
00:08:54.680 That's really the point.
00:08:56.360 Getting people to do what they want to do, well, that doesn't take much skill.
00:09:01.740 Do you want to eat this cookie?
00:09:03.260 Yes.
00:09:04.280 Give me a cookie.
00:09:05.300 There you go.
00:09:06.540 That's it.
00:09:07.660 But if you want somebody to enlist in the military and go fight a war,
00:09:12.800 you've got to make a pretty good case for that.
00:09:16.020 So I would say that the job of president, leader, manager, anything in that domain,
00:09:23.400 is really about not being too empathetic.
00:09:28.780 Empathy is what makes you a bad leader.
00:09:33.220 Now, you have to have some, right?
00:09:35.820 If you had no empathy, you would be a sociopath, and that would be dangerous.
00:09:40.420 But if you have too much empathy, you lead with empathy,
00:09:44.780 then you make the problem that all Democrats seem to make.
00:09:49.700 And it goes like this.
00:09:50.960 If you're designing a system for human beings,
00:09:55.500 the number one thing you're going to have to think about
00:09:58.000 is their motivation and their incentives.
00:10:01.100 Because whatever humans are motivated to do,
00:10:04.880 whatever their incentive is,
00:10:07.340 that's what's going to happen in the long run.
00:10:09.400 So I think that the Republicans have a less empathy-focused view of the world
00:10:17.460 because that view of the world gets you the best result for the people you care about.
00:10:24.840 So in other words, in the Republican view of things,
00:10:28.340 the best way to show your empathy or to act on it
00:10:32.940 is to do a good job designing a stable system that makes the country as a whole work.
00:10:37.800 And if you do that, it's going to be worse for some people.
00:10:41.880 Nobody likes that.
00:10:43.220 But it is going to be.
00:10:44.700 You can't make everything equal all the time.
00:10:46.860 It's just not something that works.
00:10:49.780 You can try.
00:10:50.800 It could be your goal.
00:10:51.680 You could try to make everything better for everybody all the time.
00:10:54.040 It could be your number one thing you're interested in.
00:10:58.180 But you still need to design a system.
00:11:00.020 And systems tend to be not perfectly even in terms of how they distribute benefits.
00:11:07.900 So that would be the main difference,
00:11:09.340 is that the Democrats seem to want to build systems,
00:11:12.880 whether it's how the economy works or anything else.
00:11:15.700 They want to build systems that are based on good intentions.
00:11:21.220 Compare these two systems.
00:11:23.000 One, that is based on good intentions of human beings.
00:11:27.280 Good intentions.
00:11:28.840 And the other, based on real motivations of humans.
00:11:33.340 Our greed, our impulse to get away with stuff if we can.
00:11:40.320 You know, really the dark side of humans,
00:11:42.480 which is, you know, we're not all that good all the time.
00:11:45.300 If you design a system that harnesses the good and the bad of people,
00:11:52.340 such as capitalism, such as democracies,
00:11:56.060 I would say that they harness both the good and the bad of people.
00:11:59.960 In other words, they understand the whole human being.
00:12:03.420 And if you can build a system that can withstand the worst of humans,
00:12:08.360 that's a good system.
00:12:09.760 Capitalism does that.
00:12:10.780 So capitalism, you still need, you know, oversight and control,
00:12:15.780 so capitalism doesn't become too far out of control.
00:12:19.740 But you can't really build a system on good intentions.
00:12:23.800 Do you know what would be a system built on good intentions?
00:12:28.040 Chaz.
00:12:29.820 Right?
00:12:30.160 The Capitol Hill thing.
00:12:32.080 The protests.
00:12:33.520 The protests are like a little civilization,
00:12:36.760 because it's every night now.
00:12:37.920 Now, if it were one-off, you'd say it's just a protest.
00:12:41.200 But once you do it every night,
00:12:43.040 it becomes almost like a lifestyle system, if you will.
00:12:47.720 And that's allegedly built on people's good intentions.
00:12:53.060 The good intention of having no racism,
00:12:55.900 of having a fairer society that's better for everybody.
00:12:59.160 That's a good intention, wouldn't you say?
00:13:02.460 Socialism, all these things, are very good intentions,
00:13:05.580 and I don't think you should take that away from them.
00:13:08.100 Indeed, I've said that the big problem with Republicans
00:13:11.840 in terms of their messaging,
00:13:13.780 I've said that they should embrace the goal of the Democrats.
00:13:18.800 The goals of the Democrats are great goals.
00:13:21.480 They're great.
00:13:22.660 You know, equality, everybody's got a chance.
00:13:25.620 There are no artificial, you know,
00:13:27.620 systemic things that are holding anybody back.
00:13:31.480 Who hates that?
00:13:33.060 That's all great stuff.
00:13:34.040 It's just how you get there.
00:13:36.380 The Republicans will build systems
00:13:38.040 that understand human motivation.
00:13:41.540 The Democrats will build one based on good intentions.
00:13:45.040 And you don't have to be a genius
00:13:46.780 to know which one's going to work.
00:13:48.680 It's pretty clear.
00:13:51.460 That's well beyond the realm of opinion
00:13:55.860 that a system built on understanding
00:13:58.880 the whole motivation of people is going to work better
00:14:01.060 than one based on good intentions.
00:14:03.380 We all know that's true.
00:14:07.140 And so here's what I would do if I were the Republicans
00:14:10.720 and I wanted to kneecap the Democrats for their approach.
00:14:15.880 So they're taking the president doesn't care about his job approach
00:14:19.800 and he has no empathy.
00:14:21.140 Here's how I deal with that.
00:14:24.700 I would say, you know what?
00:14:26.560 Democrats are really good with empathy.
00:14:29.260 The world needs plenty of empathy.
00:14:31.620 In fact, I commend the Democrats
00:14:34.380 for their attention to caring and empathy
00:14:38.060 and I give them my full respect.
00:14:40.860 But, the world doesn't run on good intentions.
00:14:48.080 The world runs when you've dealt a system
00:14:50.880 that understands human beings.
00:14:54.240 That's what we're offering.
00:14:55.920 We're offering you something that works
00:14:57.820 because it's a tested, motivation-driven,
00:15:02.420 incentive-based system.
00:15:04.520 We can tweak it, but that's what we're going for.
00:15:08.140 The Democrats are very, very obviously,
00:15:12.940 and they're not hiding anything,
00:15:14.280 they're going for a different kind of system,
00:15:16.460 one that's built on good intentions.
00:15:19.640 You know how that works.
00:15:21.320 You're watching the protesters
00:15:22.880 and the burning of the cities.
00:15:24.660 That's what good intentions gets you.
00:15:27.880 Every bit of that problem,
00:15:29.580 the burning of the cities,
00:15:30.620 every bit of that is based on good intentions.
00:15:34.360 You don't want to lose your good intentions,
00:15:36.340 but you don't want to build a system
00:15:37.740 that thinks that that's what drives human beings
00:15:41.400 because it's just not.
00:15:43.580 So, I think that would completely kneecap
00:15:46.540 the entire Democrats' point of view,
00:15:49.200 which, by the way, is a similar play
00:15:51.240 to when Bob Dole was running against Bill Clinton
00:15:55.400 and Clinton-Gore said,
00:15:58.860 you know, all the niceness of Dole,
00:16:04.860 we should appreciate it.
00:16:06.260 Very honorable, great service to the country,
00:16:09.120 but he's planning for the past
00:16:11.180 and we're planning for the future.
00:16:13.580 It's the same play,
00:16:15.000 just updated to the current situation,
00:16:17.260 which is you give the other team their full due.
00:16:20.740 So the Democrats are trying to claim the mantle
00:16:23.140 of the ones who care the most.
00:16:26.200 You should give it to them.
00:16:27.380 You should give it to them.
00:16:28.860 And say, you know,
00:16:29.720 I wish we could be more like you.
00:16:31.740 It's really...
00:16:32.940 And by the way,
00:16:35.420 there's nothing artificial
00:16:37.640 about what I'm going to say right now.
00:16:39.040 This is literally true.
00:16:42.440 You have to respect the Democrats
00:16:44.060 for the caring and the fairness stuff.
00:16:46.860 You have to respect that.
00:16:48.320 Because their vision of where they'd like to be
00:16:51.880 is incredible.
00:16:54.480 I'd like to be there too.
00:16:56.200 Wouldn't that be great?
00:16:58.180 But we live in a real world
00:17:00.860 where you have to make real decisions
00:17:02.120 and deal with real limitations.
00:17:04.620 All right.
00:17:05.100 That's enough of that.
00:17:06.340 Jeffrey Miller on Twitter
00:17:09.520 had this interesting poll.
00:17:11.780 He said,
00:17:12.940 if Joe Biden turned up
00:17:14.140 as your Uber driver,
00:17:15.780 are you confident
00:17:16.560 he'd get you
00:17:17.240 where you need to go?
00:17:20.300 Now,
00:17:20.860 I feel like that's something
00:17:22.840 you could say of any president.
00:17:24.560 Because by the time you're president,
00:17:25.780 you're a little disconnected
00:17:26.660 from the real world,
00:17:27.940 you know,
00:17:28.640 stuff.
00:17:29.080 You don't know
00:17:29.520 what a loaf of bread costs.
00:17:32.580 And you probably don't know
00:17:33.420 how to drive a car
00:17:34.560 after a while.
00:17:35.640 But that image
00:17:36.760 is wonderfully visual.
00:17:38.800 Because you see Joe Biden,
00:17:40.580 you actually see him
00:17:41.460 sitting up there
00:17:42.040 in his Prius.
00:17:43.340 And he's confused.
00:17:44.700 He's trying to use his phone
00:17:45.820 and he can't figure out
00:17:46.600 how to navigate.
00:17:48.560 That is just a
00:17:50.500 devastatingly good
00:17:52.920 persuasive question.
00:17:55.860 Joe Biden as your Uber driver
00:17:57.460 and he can't get it done.
00:18:02.320 So here's my favorite part
00:18:04.520 of yesterday.
00:18:06.040 Every now and then
00:18:07.040 when you're watching
00:18:07.700 the ugliness of politics,
00:18:10.580 there'll be this little flower
00:18:12.860 that grows through the
00:18:14.020 crack in the pavement.
00:18:15.700 You know,
00:18:15.880 it's this bleak landscape
00:18:17.180 of politics.
00:18:18.540 And there'll just be
00:18:19.180 this little flower
00:18:20.300 that finds a way
00:18:21.760 and pushes its way
00:18:23.260 through the concrete
00:18:23.960 and gives you this little
00:18:25.020 feeling of happiness.
00:18:26.960 And this happened yesterday
00:18:27.940 when the president
00:18:29.540 was doing his press conference
00:18:31.040 and he was asked
00:18:32.360 about Q.
00:18:34.300 you know,
00:18:35.300 the QAnon group
00:18:36.800 who,
00:18:38.620 and here's the question
00:18:41.100 and the answer.
00:18:42.740 So the reporter asks,
00:18:44.740 QAnon believes you are
00:18:46.000 secretly saving the world
00:18:47.380 from this cult of pedophiles
00:18:49.000 and cannibals.
00:18:49.720 Are you behind that?
00:18:51.820 And the president,
00:18:53.280 as he often does,
00:18:56.340 you know,
00:18:56.680 this is a sort of
00:18:57.960 a yes-no question.
00:18:59.820 You'd expect the president
00:19:00.980 to give some kind
00:19:02.360 of an answer
00:19:02.980 that another human being
00:19:05.660 might have given.
00:19:07.160 That's what you're thinking.
00:19:08.300 It's like,
00:19:08.520 well,
00:19:08.720 here comes an answer
00:19:09.460 that I would guess
00:19:11.640 there are maybe
00:19:12.620 a couple of ways
00:19:13.360 you could go
00:19:13.860 with this answer.
00:19:14.940 It's going to be
00:19:15.640 one of those ways.
00:19:17.640 But it wasn't.
00:19:19.560 It wasn't.
00:19:20.800 Here's what the president said.
00:19:22.520 He goes,
00:19:23.660 is that supposed
00:19:24.340 to be a bad thing?
00:19:25.400 Is that supposed
00:19:28.380 to be a bad thing?
00:19:30.780 And then he says,
00:19:32.640 we are actually,
00:19:36.040 we are saving the world.
00:19:42.100 Now,
00:19:43.080 this is what I call
00:19:44.440 the ping theory.
00:19:47.660 I have to explain that.
00:19:49.820 The ping theory
00:19:50.720 was developed
00:19:52.400 when I was a teenager
00:19:53.440 and
00:19:54.280 the guy
00:19:55.640 I was working with,
00:19:56.900 we were talking about
00:19:57.980 our summer job
00:19:59.420 and this other person.
00:20:01.240 And this other person
00:20:02.220 we were talking about,
00:20:03.820 we agreed that he had
00:20:04.960 this unusual quality,
00:20:06.900 which is that
00:20:07.900 he'll say nine things
00:20:09.280 you think he shouldn't
00:20:10.160 have said
00:20:10.680 or were awkward
00:20:11.600 or the wrong thing.
00:20:13.340 And you'll think,
00:20:14.380 you know,
00:20:14.560 what's wrong with this guy?
00:20:15.600 He's like,
00:20:16.320 socially,
00:20:17.520 there's something wrong.
00:20:18.760 And then the tenth
00:20:19.560 thing he says
00:20:20.600 will be so smart
00:20:22.420 that you just say,
00:20:24.000 what happened?
00:20:25.860 Because you don't
00:20:26.620 understand how
00:20:27.740 this person who is
00:20:28.960 one way
00:20:30.200 so consistently,
00:20:31.860 but then that
00:20:32.820 tenth thing
00:20:33.960 that he does
00:20:34.680 will be beyond
00:20:35.940 anything you could have
00:20:36.860 done.
00:20:37.360 And you say,
00:20:38.080 I don't know
00:20:38.680 what I'm watching here.
00:20:40.340 And that's the ping,
00:20:41.860 and you can think
00:20:42.880 of this as like
00:20:43.580 an EKG,
00:20:45.340 you know,
00:20:45.560 a chart on a machine.
00:20:47.100 And the person
00:20:47.780 is like,
00:20:48.320 Average,
00:20:50.840 below average,
00:20:52.500 Average,
00:20:53.840 below average,
00:20:55.100 Ping!
00:20:57.080 And all of a sudden
00:20:57.740 the meter just goes
00:20:58.660 off the chart.
00:20:59.820 And you go,
00:21:00.380 what the hell
00:21:01.020 just happened?
00:21:02.260 It's like this little
00:21:03.000 slice of brilliance
00:21:04.100 that just comes out
00:21:04.880 of nowhere,
00:21:05.380 and then it's gone again.
00:21:07.040 And you have to
00:21:07.540 wait for it again.
00:21:08.600 It's like,
00:21:08.960 I think there's
00:21:09.560 another one in there.
00:21:10.920 So you wait
00:21:11.540 for the nine
00:21:12.520 bad tweets,
00:21:14.540 you know,
00:21:14.760 the things that
00:21:15.660 were imperfect,
00:21:17.120 the time he didn't
00:21:18.440 pass the fact-checking,
00:21:19.960 and you're starting
00:21:20.420 to think,
00:21:21.380 man, you know,
00:21:22.640 this is sort of
00:21:23.480 ordinary.
00:21:24.440 And then,
00:21:24.860 ping!
00:21:26.320 This Q answer
00:21:27.580 was a ping.
00:21:29.640 This is one of
00:21:30.320 those times
00:21:30.920 where somebody
00:21:34.040 said this to me
00:21:34.780 first,
00:21:35.280 but I was feeling
00:21:36.040 it too,
00:21:37.560 that there are
00:21:39.040 times when Trump
00:21:40.060 makes you hate him,
00:21:42.520 makes you annoyed,
00:21:44.220 you know,
00:21:44.460 you might be
00:21:45.500 disgusted with the
00:21:46.600 way he did something
00:21:47.460 that you would have
00:21:48.100 handled differently.
00:21:49.740 But then there
00:21:50.400 are these moments,
00:21:51.580 and this is just
00:21:52.400 for Trump supporters,
00:21:53.640 of course,
00:21:54.220 it's very subjective,
00:21:55.580 but there are
00:21:56.160 these moments
00:21:56.840 when he makes you
00:21:58.560 fall in love with him.
00:22:01.080 Do you know
00:22:01.640 what I mean?
00:22:02.660 There are moments
00:22:03.440 when he makes you
00:22:04.200 fall in love with him.
00:22:05.980 And this was
00:22:06.640 one of those moments
00:22:07.500 because
00:22:08.860 the fact that
00:22:11.080 he was,
00:22:12.600 well,
00:22:13.200 I called him
00:22:13.900 the commander
00:22:14.740 in troll
00:22:15.300 for this answer,
00:22:16.660 and it felt like
00:22:18.180 the moment he was
00:22:19.780 activating the troll
00:22:20.900 army,
00:22:22.120 I felt that this
00:22:23.280 answer,
00:22:24.100 when Trump said,
00:22:25.020 is that supposed
00:22:25.480 to be a bad thing?
00:22:26.420 We are actually.
00:22:27.440 We're saving the world.
00:22:29.100 And I think he said
00:22:29.920 some more on the topic,
00:22:31.000 but he was also
00:22:31.880 not condemning
00:22:33.360 Q whatsoever,
00:22:34.700 and he acted like
00:22:35.560 he didn't quite know
00:22:36.320 what they were about,
00:22:37.160 but if they liked him,
00:22:38.680 that was great.
00:22:40.200 And that they probably
00:22:41.360 also liked
00:22:43.340 a better world,
00:22:44.640 et cetera.
00:22:45.620 Now,
00:22:46.440 here's why it felt
00:22:47.400 like he was
00:22:47.980 activating his troll
00:22:49.220 army.
00:22:50.160 And if you don't
00:22:50.700 know what I mean
00:22:51.220 by his troll army,
00:22:53.040 come on,
00:22:53.600 you know what I mean.
00:22:54.880 It's all of us,
00:22:55.860 right?
00:22:56.140 It's basically
00:22:57.260 the entire
00:22:57.920 online world.
00:22:59.960 Now,
00:23:00.200 I don't think
00:23:00.660 he had that intention,
00:23:01.940 but it just had
00:23:02.660 that feeling
00:23:03.380 of like,
00:23:04.760 you know,
00:23:05.080 that the election
00:23:06.000 started yesterday.
00:23:08.280 Like,
00:23:08.540 that was the beginning
00:23:09.340 of the serious,
00:23:10.880 you know,
00:23:11.300 election.
00:23:11.860 Everything else
00:23:12.540 was sort of,
00:23:13.520 okay,
00:23:14.160 you better do
00:23:14.920 some training
00:23:15.680 with the troops.
00:23:17.400 All right,
00:23:17.960 maybe we should
00:23:18.600 position our troops.
00:23:21.000 Wouldn't it be good
00:23:21.920 if we had some,
00:23:22.700 you know,
00:23:23.080 assets over here?
00:23:24.620 I feel like
00:23:25.640 everything was
00:23:26.960 just getting ready
00:23:27.980 until he said
00:23:30.000 this about QAnon,
00:23:31.700 and then I feel
00:23:32.640 like that was
00:23:33.100 like the bad signal
00:23:34.320 to just,
00:23:35.520 you know,
00:23:36.120 just release
00:23:37.140 the trolls,
00:23:38.400 the troll army.
00:23:40.520 Joe Biden
00:23:41.220 has no idea
00:23:41.880 what's coming
00:23:42.340 for him.
00:23:44.140 But,
00:23:44.740 all right,
00:23:45.000 so the reason
00:23:45.420 I love this
00:23:46.020 is that
00:23:46.540 what is the
00:23:48.220 biggest problem
00:23:48.760 that the Democrats
00:23:49.600 have made
00:23:50.120 that I would
00:23:50.700 consider
00:23:51.120 just a blunder?
00:23:52.960 Hillary Clinton
00:23:53.660 did it,
00:23:54.620 they're doing it now,
00:23:55.780 and the blunder
00:23:56.540 is this,
00:23:57.760 that they would
00:23:58.320 ever treat
00:23:58.980 any Americans,
00:24:00.740 no matter how much
00:24:01.700 they disagree
00:24:02.360 with them,
00:24:03.360 they won't
00:24:04.740 treat them
00:24:05.320 as,
00:24:05.920 you know,
00:24:06.340 bad people.
00:24:07.440 And the president,
00:24:08.640 as long as these
00:24:09.560 QAnon people
00:24:10.460 are not breaking
00:24:11.100 any laws,
00:24:12.300 they're not,
00:24:12.860 they're not acting
00:24:13.740 like racists,
00:24:15.000 right?
00:24:15.360 He did condemn
00:24:16.180 the neo-Nazis,
00:24:17.940 that's an easy one.
00:24:18.960 But if you're just
00:24:19.680 a citizen,
00:24:20.820 and you just have
00:24:21.440 a different opinion,
00:24:22.720 you might be right,
00:24:23.640 you might be wrong,
00:24:24.460 you might be following
00:24:25.140 a conspiracy theory,
00:24:26.460 maybe you're not.
00:24:28.120 But don't you want
00:24:30.260 a president
00:24:30.760 who's not going
00:24:31.760 to throw you
00:24:32.260 under the bus
00:24:32.900 as long as you're
00:24:33.700 obeying the law?
00:24:35.420 Think about it.
00:24:36.540 If you're obeying
00:24:37.400 the law,
00:24:38.680 no matter how
00:24:39.500 crazy you are,
00:24:41.040 or not,
00:24:42.300 or not,
00:24:43.740 yeah,
00:24:44.060 who gets to judge
00:24:45.080 who's crazy?
00:24:46.420 That as long as
00:24:47.180 you're obeying the law,
00:24:48.760 you're in.
00:24:50.460 You're in the club.
00:24:52.280 That's the
00:24:53.040 Trump proposition.
00:24:54.640 We've got our
00:24:55.180 Constitution,
00:24:55.740 we've got our laws.
00:24:57.520 If you follow
00:24:58.400 those things,
00:24:59.280 you're in the club,
00:25:00.700 period.
00:25:01.920 I'm not going
00:25:02.480 to tell you
00:25:03.040 what to think,
00:25:03.860 what to write,
00:25:04.460 what to say.
00:25:05.340 If you follow
00:25:06.320 those rules,
00:25:07.500 you're on my side,
00:25:09.260 and I'm on your side.
00:25:11.520 Very powerful.
00:25:13.240 Even, you know,
00:25:13.920 the way he did it
00:25:14.700 was not as explicit
00:25:15.740 as I just said.
00:25:16.880 But the fact that
00:25:17.620 he wouldn't throw
00:25:18.720 Q under the bus,
00:25:20.940 he wouldn't throw
00:25:21.860 them under the bus.
00:25:24.220 Boom.
00:25:26.180 I love that.
00:25:27.820 Even I've thrown
00:25:28.740 Q under the bus.
00:25:30.820 Right?
00:25:31.640 But I'm not the
00:25:32.340 President of the
00:25:32.900 United States.
00:25:34.020 If you're just a
00:25:34.980 pundit, you can say
00:25:35.700 whatever you want,
00:25:36.620 as long as you're
00:25:37.180 following the
00:25:37.740 Constitution,
00:25:38.460 following the law,
00:25:39.560 and I guess
00:25:39.980 following the
00:25:40.520 terms of service
00:25:41.200 in this case.
00:25:42.540 But for the
00:25:43.920 President to do
00:25:45.120 that knowing,
00:25:47.200 that's why I call
00:25:48.020 him the commander
00:25:48.540 in control,
00:25:49.380 knowing exactly the
00:25:50.780 response he's going
00:25:51.620 to get,
00:25:52.480 and knowing that
00:25:53.300 his supporters are
00:25:54.240 going to think this
00:25:54.800 is the funniest
00:25:55.360 thing that's ever
00:25:56.040 happened,
00:25:57.460 that's why you
00:25:59.500 fall in love with
00:26:00.260 him.
00:26:00.520 He just refuses to
00:26:02.640 do what the other
00:26:03.520 side wants him to
00:26:04.500 do, and he
00:26:05.580 refuses also to
00:26:06.700 throw Americans
00:26:08.520 under the bus
00:26:09.280 unless they've
00:26:10.300 done some
00:26:11.340 horrible thing.
00:26:13.420 All right.
00:26:14.080 Does it seem to
00:26:16.500 you that the
00:26:19.260 Democrats were
00:26:20.360 trying to portray
00:26:21.400 themselves as the
00:26:22.440 party of women
00:26:23.400 primarily?
00:26:25.360 Almost a female
00:26:27.140 supremacy kind of a
00:26:28.600 vibe.
00:26:29.460 Do you get that
00:26:30.240 from the Democratic
00:26:32.300 Convention?
00:26:34.220 It felt like it had
00:26:35.100 very much a female
00:26:36.260 superiority vibe,
00:26:37.480 and if I had to
00:26:40.560 make one prediction
00:26:41.520 about one
00:26:43.300 demographic group
00:26:44.440 and how they
00:26:44.920 vote, I think
00:26:46.420 black men,
00:26:48.240 maybe not women,
00:26:49.900 probably not
00:26:50.460 women, but I
00:26:51.500 think black men
00:26:52.600 are way, way
00:26:54.800 more, let's say,
00:26:56.760 Trump-curious
00:26:58.000 than is going to
00:26:59.120 be picked up in
00:26:59.820 any poll.
00:27:01.040 I feel as though
00:27:02.500 black men are
00:27:03.800 watching, if they
00:27:04.560 watch the convention,
00:27:05.480 they're saying to
00:27:06.760 themselves, this
00:27:08.080 doesn't seem so
00:27:08.860 much about me.
00:27:10.120 This feels like a
00:27:11.700 party for and
00:27:12.660 about women.
00:27:13.820 I'm not saying
00:27:14.360 that's good or
00:27:14.900 bad.
00:27:15.580 I'm not putting a
00:27:16.280 value on that.
00:27:17.440 I'm just saying
00:27:18.160 that that's what
00:27:18.840 it looks like.
00:27:19.540 It feels like
00:27:20.100 that's what they're
00:27:20.820 trying to project.
00:27:22.880 So much so that
00:27:24.240 hilariously, if you
00:27:26.160 saw the People
00:27:26.820 magazine photo, I
00:27:28.260 tweeted this
00:27:28.860 earlier, they have
00:27:30.340 Biden and Harris
00:27:31.920 posing for a
00:27:33.240 photo, but as
00:27:35.000 someone else
00:27:35.700 pointed out, they
00:27:36.560 had Harris with
00:27:37.420 the male pose,
00:27:39.100 male body
00:27:39.820 language, and
00:27:40.820 they had Biden
00:27:41.700 with female body
00:27:43.200 language.
00:27:44.200 And somebody
00:27:44.620 asked if that was
00:27:45.320 intentional.
00:27:45.960 I don't know.
00:27:46.800 So Biden, or so
00:27:47.780 Harris was sitting
00:27:49.080 on top of a
00:27:49.800 table, and she
00:27:51.400 had sort of, you
00:27:52.460 know, a male
00:27:53.340 looking pose.
00:27:55.560 Now, of course,
00:27:56.280 there's no such
00:27:56.840 thing as a male
00:27:57.600 pose or a female
00:27:58.380 pose.
00:27:59.100 So what I'm
00:27:59.520 talking about is
00:28:00.220 sort of the
00:28:01.360 traditional, you
00:28:02.780 know, 50s, kind
00:28:03.760 of what you'd
00:28:04.280 expect would be
00:28:05.000 a male or
00:28:05.440 female pose.
00:28:07.360 And then
00:28:08.000 Biden was
00:28:08.920 below her.
00:28:10.780 Surprise, surprise,
00:28:11.920 right?
00:28:12.200 He's below her,
00:28:13.400 but he's a
00:28:14.180 little bit closer,
00:28:15.940 just a little
00:28:16.500 bit.
00:28:16.800 He's like a
00:28:17.260 foot closer.
00:28:18.720 Doesn't make
00:28:19.300 much difference,
00:28:20.160 but he's below
00:28:20.760 her.
00:28:22.100 Now, to me, the
00:28:23.380 photography is
00:28:24.300 sending a clear
00:28:25.080 message that she's
00:28:26.720 in charge.
00:28:27.220 She had the
00:28:28.140 superior body
00:28:29.100 language, she
00:28:30.240 had the in
00:28:30.900 charge position,
00:28:32.420 and he had the
00:28:33.120 more submissive
00:28:34.540 position.
00:28:36.040 I don't think
00:28:36.840 that's a
00:28:37.180 coincidence.
00:28:38.420 I think
00:28:38.920 everybody's trying
00:28:39.580 to present her
00:28:40.740 as the real
00:28:41.420 leader.
00:28:42.440 Now, I wanted
00:28:43.320 to teach you,
00:28:44.080 in case you
00:28:44.480 didn't know
00:28:44.760 how to do
00:28:45.140 this, you're
00:28:45.860 seeing this
00:28:46.300 on CNN and
00:28:47.900 MSNBC, how
00:28:50.180 to pronounce
00:28:51.160 Vice President
00:28:53.640 Kamala Harris.
00:28:56.340 Because when
00:28:57.040 they say she's
00:28:57.760 running for the
00:28:58.500 position, or
00:28:59.260 that she will
00:28:59.920 be, if she
00:29:00.660 wins, the
00:29:01.880 first Vice
00:29:02.820 President, there's
00:29:04.160 a certain way
00:29:04.840 that you need to
00:29:05.420 say it, and it's
00:29:06.120 how you say the
00:29:06.800 first part, the
00:29:07.680 vice.
00:29:08.940 You want to
00:29:09.980 kind of mumble
00:29:11.080 that a little
00:29:11.700 bit, and
00:29:12.520 emphasize the
00:29:13.440 President part.
00:29:14.780 So here's how
00:29:15.340 to do it
00:29:15.800 incorrectly.
00:29:17.940 If she's
00:29:18.540 elected, she'll
00:29:19.400 be Vice
00:29:20.040 President Kamala
00:29:21.160 Harris.
00:29:22.080 That's all
00:29:22.600 wrong.
00:29:23.460 That's all
00:29:23.820 wrong.
00:29:24.660 Too much
00:29:25.260 advice on
00:29:25.900 there.
00:29:26.120 Here's how
00:29:26.500 to say it.
00:29:26.980 If she's
00:29:27.920 elected, she'll
00:29:29.340 be the
00:29:29.880 first
00:29:30.420 President
00:29:31.300 Kamala
00:29:32.820 Harris.
00:29:34.640 So you
00:29:35.060 just want
00:29:35.440 to go
00:29:35.600 so instead
00:29:37.420 of Vice, you
00:29:39.120 just go
00:29:39.480 first, first.
00:29:41.560 It might
00:29:41.900 sound like
00:29:42.320 there was a
00:29:42.800 sound in
00:29:43.380 the room, and
00:29:43.920 it just gets
00:29:44.360 swallowed up, and
00:29:45.540 you want to
00:29:45.880 hit the
00:29:46.200 President part.
00:29:47.720 So you'll
00:29:48.040 notice that
00:29:48.640 there's a
00:29:49.020 lot of
00:29:49.680 Vice, President
00:29:51.180 Harris.
00:29:54.720 All right, so
00:29:55.960 now you know
00:29:56.420 how to
00:29:56.660 pronounce
00:29:57.000 that, so
00:29:57.900 that's
00:29:58.180 good.
00:30:00.980 So I've
00:30:02.220 been fascinated
00:30:03.100 to see how
00:30:04.060 the pro-Democrat
00:30:05.740 press would
00:30:07.460 describe Harris'
00:30:09.220 ethnic
00:30:10.140 background,
00:30:11.360 because it's
00:30:12.180 kind of tricky,
00:30:13.160 right?
00:30:13.560 Because she's
00:30:15.720 Jamaican and
00:30:17.700 South Asian,
00:30:19.960 so neither
00:30:20.700 of those are
00:30:21.440 your standard
00:30:22.440 words that you
00:30:23.740 hear a lot in
00:30:24.680 American politics,
00:30:25.560 and didn't
00:30:28.240 it feel like
00:30:28.840 she started
00:30:29.400 out being
00:30:29.900 black?
00:30:31.460 I feel as
00:30:32.580 though it
00:30:33.980 was only
00:30:34.440 yesterday that
00:30:35.520 she was
00:30:35.900 described as
00:30:36.720 black.
00:30:38.680 And there
00:30:39.680 must have
00:30:40.020 been a lot
00:30:40.360 of poll
00:30:40.740 testing on
00:30:41.480 this, because
00:30:43.060 imagine if
00:30:44.120 you were a
00:30:45.220 South Asian
00:30:46.060 woman, or
00:30:47.600 just South
00:30:48.340 Asian, and
00:30:49.600 you see
00:30:50.120 somebody that
00:30:50.800 you identify
00:30:52.060 with as being
00:30:52.920 at least half
00:30:54.280 or whatever
00:30:54.640 the percentage
00:30:55.160 is, you
00:30:55.980 identify as
00:30:56.600 oh, I'm
00:30:56.960 South Asian,
00:30:58.200 she's South
00:30:58.800 Asian, and
00:30:59.700 then you see
00:31:00.240 her party
00:31:00.760 describe her as
00:31:01.580 black all the
00:31:02.200 time.
00:31:03.320 How would that
00:31:03.740 make you feel?
00:31:04.880 You'd be
00:31:05.220 thinking, well,
00:31:07.200 half black?
00:31:08.660 Isn't it?
00:31:09.200 What about the
00:31:09.700 half that's like
00:31:10.340 me?
00:31:11.300 Why am I not
00:31:12.280 included in
00:31:13.140 this party?
00:31:14.500 So, in
00:31:17.080 order not to
00:31:17.760 lose the
00:31:18.500 people who
00:31:19.020 would identify
00:31:19.620 with one
00:31:20.360 half of her,
00:31:21.540 in order to
00:31:22.340 make sure you
00:31:23.000 nail down, you
00:31:24.340 know, the
00:31:24.580 other half, it's
00:31:25.980 kind of a
00:31:26.500 tricky thing to
00:31:27.600 balance.
00:31:28.780 And so it
00:31:29.280 looks like they
00:31:30.140 might be going
00:31:30.720 for Jamaican
00:31:31.580 and South
00:31:32.200 Asian as
00:31:33.060 their best
00:31:33.520 description.
00:31:35.300 Oh, wait,
00:31:35.700 now I take
00:31:36.060 that back.
00:31:37.040 They called
00:31:37.480 her first
00:31:38.140 black and
00:31:39.020 South Asian.
00:31:40.880 It was
00:31:41.440 somebody else
00:31:41.940 who described
00:31:42.440 her as
00:31:42.720 Jamaican and
00:31:43.920 South Asian.
00:31:44.500 Yeah, so
00:31:45.100 they were
00:31:45.260 calling her
00:31:45.640 first black
00:31:46.440 and South
00:31:46.940 Asian.
00:31:47.800 Now, I'm
00:31:48.460 not black
00:31:49.380 and I'm
00:31:49.660 not South
00:31:50.080 Asian, but
00:31:50.720 I have a
00:31:51.180 curiosity about
00:31:53.140 how you
00:31:53.780 receive that
00:31:54.700 if you are
00:31:55.500 black or
00:31:56.140 you are
00:31:56.600 South Asian.
00:31:57.800 I don't
00:31:58.080 know the
00:31:58.360 answer to
00:31:58.700 that.
00:31:59.420 Because I
00:31:59.900 wonder if,
00:32:00.760 does it
00:32:01.060 feel pandery?
00:32:03.020 Here's how
00:32:03.500 I think I'd
00:32:04.240 feel.
00:32:05.640 If you gave
00:32:06.620 me somebody
00:32:07.160 who is half
00:32:08.480 of whatever
00:32:09.100 I am and
00:32:10.300 tried to sell
00:32:11.000 it as,
00:32:12.180 you know,
00:32:12.820 representing me,
00:32:13.620 I feel
00:32:14.920 like my
00:32:15.380 first impression
00:32:17.020 would be
00:32:17.480 something along
00:32:18.200 the lines
00:32:18.580 of, why
00:32:19.480 am I only
00:32:19.900 getting half?
00:32:21.240 You couldn't
00:32:21.920 find, you
00:32:23.720 know, a
00:32:24.080 completely
00:32:24.560 South Asian
00:32:25.440 candidate?
00:32:27.020 You know,
00:32:27.340 why are you
00:32:28.500 trying to sell
00:32:29.020 me half a
00:32:29.740 candidate?
00:32:31.100 And if you're
00:32:32.020 black, are you
00:32:32.620 saying the same
00:32:33.160 thing?
00:32:34.000 Are you saying,
00:32:34.980 are you telling
00:32:35.520 me you scoured
00:32:36.480 the country and
00:32:37.660 you couldn't
00:32:38.040 find a woman
00:32:38.660 who was just
00:32:39.220 black?
00:32:39.640 black, right?
00:32:41.220 Because, you
00:32:41.920 know, that's the
00:32:42.520 population we're
00:32:43.340 trying to
00:32:43.720 represent.
00:32:44.940 It's a fairly
00:32:45.760 tiny part of
00:32:46.720 the population
00:32:47.540 who is both
00:32:48.360 black and
00:32:48.880 South Asian.
00:32:50.520 You know, the
00:32:50.860 combination of
00:32:51.540 the two, that's
00:32:52.120 a pretty small
00:32:52.760 number.
00:32:54.060 But why can't
00:32:54.980 you give us
00:32:55.460 somebody who's
00:32:56.240 just black?
00:32:58.360 13% of the
00:32:59.420 public, big
00:33:00.780 part of the
00:33:01.180 Democratic
00:33:01.640 Party, are
00:33:02.800 you selling us
00:33:04.020 a little bit
00:33:04.540 short here?
00:33:05.120 I don't know
00:33:07.180 that I would
00:33:07.560 feel that.
00:33:08.140 I saw a
00:33:08.540 video of a
00:33:09.820 woman who
00:33:10.260 apparently is
00:33:10.880 South Asian
00:33:11.640 who was just
00:33:12.460 delighted.
00:33:13.260 She was like
00:33:13.660 crying because
00:33:14.980 she was so
00:33:15.500 happy.
00:33:16.220 So it could
00:33:16.660 be that the
00:33:18.980 ideal situation
00:33:20.120 is that Kamala
00:33:20.880 Harris just
00:33:21.420 appeals to
00:33:21.960 everybody because
00:33:23.060 everybody finds
00:33:23.760 something to
00:33:24.320 like about her.
00:33:25.600 Maybe.
00:33:26.500 I'm just curious
00:33:27.460 about how people
00:33:28.160 do actually
00:33:28.880 respond to
00:33:29.520 that.
00:33:30.160 I'll never
00:33:30.540 find out
00:33:31.000 probably.
00:33:31.280 then Hillary
00:33:35.780 Clinton talked
00:33:36.700 and Elizabeth
00:33:37.480 Warren talked.
00:33:39.440 And you're
00:33:40.360 going to think
00:33:40.820 this is sexist
00:33:41.840 so let me tell
00:33:42.600 you ahead of
00:33:43.500 time this would
00:33:44.220 apply to men
00:33:45.380 and women.
00:33:46.700 So the comment
00:33:47.480 I now make
00:33:48.300 I deny
00:33:50.120 somehow
00:33:50.920 specifically about
00:33:52.120 women because
00:33:52.820 it's a universal
00:33:53.620 comment.
00:33:54.780 But it just
00:33:55.160 happens to be
00:33:55.680 about these two
00:33:56.260 individuals who
00:33:56.900 happen to be
00:33:57.360 women.
00:33:57.760 Have I protected
00:33:58.360 myself enough?
00:33:59.720 No cancellation
00:34:00.340 for me today.
00:34:01.280 And it goes
00:34:02.120 like this.
00:34:03.580 Hillary Clinton
00:34:04.300 and Elizabeth
00:34:05.560 Warren both
00:34:06.380 have crazy
00:34:07.060 eyes.
00:34:08.380 Crazy eyes.
00:34:09.780 Now,
00:34:11.120 specifically,
00:34:12.700 it's a
00:34:13.260 specific kind.
00:34:15.740 It's the
00:34:16.280 eyes are too
00:34:17.160 wide when
00:34:17.960 they're trying
00:34:18.380 to convince
00:34:18.900 you of
00:34:19.220 something.
00:34:19.580 I've talked
00:34:19.920 about this
00:34:20.340 before,
00:34:20.780 right?
00:34:21.440 That if
00:34:22.440 somebody is
00:34:23.000 talking to
00:34:23.660 you with
00:34:23.980 these eyes
00:34:24.540 right now
00:34:25.420 that I'm
00:34:25.800 modeling that
00:34:26.400 you can't
00:34:26.920 see if you're
00:34:27.940 only listening
00:34:28.480 to this,
00:34:29.580 if their
00:34:30.100 eyes are
00:34:30.560 normal and
00:34:31.200 they're telling
00:34:31.600 you what
00:34:32.300 you should
00:34:32.660 believe and
00:34:33.260 why you
00:34:33.640 should think
00:34:34.040 this,
00:34:34.440 these are
00:34:34.720 your priorities,
00:34:35.640 that could
00:34:36.220 be convincing.
00:34:37.480 But if
00:34:37.800 somebody widens
00:34:38.700 their eyes
00:34:39.340 to make
00:34:40.240 their case,
00:34:41.440 and if you
00:34:42.420 pick Joe
00:34:42.940 Biden,
00:34:44.040 everything will
00:34:44.720 be good and
00:34:45.520 we'll have
00:34:45.920 unicorns and
00:34:47.280 popcorn every
00:34:48.440 day.
00:34:48.840 say, the
00:34:50.760 wider the
00:34:51.460 eyes, this
00:34:52.360 is my
00:34:53.300 personal
00:34:53.820 interpretation
00:34:54.620 of body
00:34:55.100 language,
00:34:56.200 I don't
00:34:56.540 know if
00:34:56.780 there's any
00:34:57.180 expert who
00:34:57.760 would agree
00:34:58.060 with this,
00:34:59.580 but keep
00:35:01.220 an eye on
00:35:01.740 it, so
00:35:02.240 to speak,
00:35:02.960 and see if
00:35:03.600 over time
00:35:04.300 you see this
00:35:05.000 pattern.
00:35:05.900 If somebody
00:35:06.620 doesn't believe
00:35:07.520 their own
00:35:08.300 story, that's
00:35:10.460 how they tell
00:35:11.040 it.
00:35:11.780 If you don't
00:35:12.720 believe your
00:35:13.340 own story,
00:35:15.220 you open your
00:35:16.060 eyes wide
00:35:16.780 when you
00:35:17.580 tell it,
00:35:18.520 because you're
00:35:19.620 trying to
00:35:20.020 sell that
00:35:20.440 you're honest.
00:35:22.040 If you
00:35:22.820 wanted people
00:35:24.020 to not
00:35:24.740 think you're
00:35:25.300 being clever
00:35:26.340 and shifty,
00:35:28.100 you don't
00:35:28.860 want to have
00:35:29.740 squinty eyes,
00:35:31.160 you don't
00:35:31.460 want to be
00:35:31.880 no eye
00:35:32.420 contact,
00:35:33.500 and sort
00:35:34.080 of looking
00:35:34.400 around,
00:35:35.320 because that
00:35:35.760 would sell
00:35:36.520 that you're
00:35:37.860 trying to
00:35:38.220 put one
00:35:38.560 over on
00:35:39.000 somebody.
00:35:40.840 But almost
00:35:41.860 as obvious
00:35:42.500 as if you
00:35:43.200 correct for
00:35:43.880 that and
00:35:44.480 you over
00:35:44.960 correct.
00:35:45.400 No, I'm
00:35:46.340 not shifty
00:35:47.320 and looking
00:35:47.740 away.
00:35:48.540 My message
00:35:49.100 is so
00:35:49.700 believable.
00:35:50.660 Oh, look,
00:35:51.100 you're right
00:35:51.300 in the eyes.
00:35:52.460 Oh, look,
00:35:52.880 you're right
00:35:53.100 in the eyes.
00:35:54.000 And I'll
00:35:54.620 wipe my
00:35:55.040 eyes like
00:35:55.400 big old
00:35:55.760 saucers.
00:35:57.220 Oh, yeah?
00:35:59.260 If you
00:35:59.860 see that,
00:36:01.280 that's somebody
00:36:01.920 who doesn't
00:36:02.500 believe their
00:36:03.140 own message.
00:36:05.040 And you
00:36:05.560 saw that
00:36:05.900 from Hillary,
00:36:06.560 you saw
00:36:06.700 that from
00:36:07.080 Elizabeth Warren.
00:36:10.060 You can
00:36:10.800 think of
00:36:11.060 other people
00:36:11.580 that you've
00:36:13.000 seen that
00:36:13.300 from.
00:36:13.740 So look
00:36:14.040 for that.
00:36:15.400 I watched
00:36:17.640 Kamala's
00:36:18.280 speech this
00:36:19.440 morning and
00:36:21.320 I want to
00:36:21.760 say two
00:36:22.220 things.
00:36:22.580 First of
00:36:22.920 all,
00:36:25.980 Chris Cuomo
00:36:26.780 and Don
00:36:28.120 Lennon were
00:36:28.760 doing their
00:36:29.300 duo act
00:36:30.320 talking about
00:36:31.500 the convention
00:36:32.060 and both
00:36:33.400 of them
00:36:33.760 mispronounced
00:36:34.620 Kamala
00:36:35.280 Harris's name.
00:36:36.780 They both
00:36:37.300 called her
00:36:37.660 Kamala.
00:36:38.120 and this
00:36:40.580 is after
00:36:41.140 the
00:36:43.960 Democratic
00:36:45.380 operative
00:36:46.160 gave Tucker
00:36:47.560 Carlson a
00:36:48.180 hard time
00:36:48.760 acting as
00:36:49.820 if he was
00:36:50.260 disrespectful to
00:36:52.000 her by
00:36:52.540 intentionally
00:36:53.260 mispronouncing
00:36:54.040 her name as
00:36:54.760 Kamala.
00:36:56.420 And then you
00:36:57.120 turn on CNN
00:36:57.860 and there are
00:36:59.080 two biggest
00:36:59.660 supporters,
00:37:00.680 Don Lemon and
00:37:01.380 Chris Cuomo,
00:37:02.360 both calling her
00:37:03.220 Kamala.
00:37:03.640 So that was
00:37:06.840 pretty funny.
00:37:07.680 Anyway,
00:37:10.100 here's what I
00:37:11.620 think Kamala
00:37:13.420 was going for
00:37:14.480 in her speech.
00:37:15.620 I think she
00:37:16.480 was trying to
00:37:17.080 sell herself
00:37:17.800 as more
00:37:19.360 friendly,
00:37:20.200 personable,
00:37:21.500 relatable,
00:37:23.060 human,
00:37:24.360 kind,
00:37:25.360 empathetic,
00:37:26.000 etc.
00:37:27.200 Because you
00:37:28.180 think of her
00:37:28.900 with a little
00:37:29.560 bit of
00:37:29.920 harshness.
00:37:31.280 If all you
00:37:31.960 know is
00:37:32.600 before the
00:37:33.440 Democratic
00:37:33.880 Convention,
00:37:34.580 that's what
00:37:34.940 you know of
00:37:35.420 her,
00:37:36.160 you'd remember
00:37:36.820 her for
00:37:37.540 attacking Joe
00:37:39.420 Biden,
00:37:40.320 her friend,
00:37:41.320 for being a
00:37:41.820 racist on
00:37:42.640 the debates.
00:37:43.740 It's pretty
00:37:44.100 harsh.
00:37:44.940 You'd remember
00:37:45.480 her for
00:37:45.860 attacking the
00:37:46.580 president,
00:37:47.120 saying bad
00:37:47.560 things about
00:37:48.020 him lots
00:37:48.680 of times.
00:37:49.540 You'd remember
00:37:49.940 her for being
00:37:50.580 unkind to
00:37:51.680 Brett Kavanaugh.
00:37:53.060 You'd remember
00:37:53.440 her as a
00:37:54.000 cop,
00:37:54.780 allegedly
00:37:55.740 kept innocent
00:37:57.100 people in
00:37:57.700 jail after
00:37:58.320 there'd been
00:37:58.780 exculpatory
00:37:59.560 evidence.
00:38:00.700 So these
00:38:00.980 are all
00:38:01.260 the allegations
00:38:02.600 and feelings.
00:38:04.000 So if you're
00:38:04.480 trying to
00:38:04.920 soften that
00:38:05.900 hard edge,
00:38:08.160 you might
00:38:08.600 want to
00:38:08.920 have an
00:38:10.380 impactful
00:38:10.880 speech in
00:38:12.140 which you
00:38:12.480 try to be
00:38:12.920 the softer,
00:38:13.840 kinder,
00:38:15.020 happier
00:38:15.640 version who
00:38:17.020 can give a
00:38:17.640 positive message
00:38:18.680 about the
00:38:19.920 world.
00:38:20.820 I would
00:38:21.660 say it
00:38:22.260 failed
00:38:22.740 completely.
00:38:23.520 It's
00:38:25.580 very obvious
00:38:26.180 that she's
00:38:26.760 been coached
00:38:27.660 hard,
00:38:29.140 meaning that
00:38:29.840 there's some
00:38:31.040 serious
00:38:31.640 outside influence
00:38:33.160 that's really
00:38:34.020 obvious in
00:38:35.220 her presentation.
00:38:37.000 And she
00:38:37.240 gave a
00:38:37.800 speech yesterday
00:38:38.720 that I'd
00:38:39.140 never seen
00:38:39.860 before.
00:38:40.920 In other
00:38:41.240 words,
00:38:41.520 her mannerism,
00:38:42.420 her approach,
00:38:43.040 her delivery,
00:38:44.440 her body
00:38:45.340 language,
00:38:45.740 everything,
00:38:46.400 was completely
00:38:47.440 different than
00:38:48.440 anything I've
00:38:49.080 seen from her
00:38:49.700 before.
00:38:50.080 And I
00:38:51.220 would say
00:38:51.540 it completely
00:38:52.140 failed,
00:38:53.300 in my
00:38:53.680 opinion.
00:38:54.700 Now,
00:38:55.240 I think
00:38:56.000 she can
00:38:56.420 correct that
00:38:57.140 because she
00:38:58.200 was in
00:38:59.200 the general
00:38:59.900 area of
00:39:00.520 where she
00:39:00.860 needed to
00:39:01.320 be,
00:39:02.100 but she
00:39:02.680 missed.
00:39:03.360 And the
00:39:03.740 mismatch is
00:39:05.280 that her
00:39:05.660 personality
00:39:06.300 does not
00:39:07.660 fit with
00:39:09.760 the skin
00:39:10.260 she was
00:39:10.660 trying to
00:39:11.280 put on
00:39:11.620 herself.
00:39:13.320 Let me
00:39:13.960 make it
00:39:14.300 not skin
00:39:14.820 because
00:39:15.120 somebody's
00:39:15.460 going to
00:39:15.620 say that
00:39:15.900 was racist.
00:39:17.340 It didn't
00:39:18.140 fit the
00:39:19.440 uniform she
00:39:20.260 was trying
00:39:20.680 to put
00:39:21.060 on.
00:39:22.520 And I
00:39:23.340 think she
00:39:23.980 would have
00:39:24.300 done a
00:39:24.680 lot better
00:39:25.300 if she
00:39:26.380 had found
00:39:26.940 an artificial
00:39:27.780 personality
00:39:28.580 that was
00:39:29.080 closer to
00:39:29.920 her actual
00:39:30.540 personality.
00:39:32.080 And what
00:39:32.580 I saw was
00:39:33.200 somebody who
00:39:33.660 was trying
00:39:34.140 to smile
00:39:34.880 and it
00:39:36.380 wasn't
00:39:36.700 real.
00:39:37.760 So she
00:39:38.560 had this
00:39:39.060 sort of
00:39:40.100 over-smiled,
00:39:41.740 I'm not
00:39:42.460 going to
00:39:42.660 lose the
00:39:43.140 smile on
00:39:43.760 my face.
00:39:45.020 And even
00:39:45.560 if I'm
00:39:45.980 going to
00:39:46.200 say something
00:39:47.360 that doesn't
00:39:47.980 make you
00:39:48.400 happy,
00:39:48.780 you just
00:39:50.080 look at
00:39:50.360 my mouth,
00:39:51.300 it's ready
00:39:51.840 to smile.
00:39:53.240 It's so
00:39:54.120 ready to
00:39:54.580 smile.
00:39:55.400 I'm the
00:39:55.880 happiest
00:39:56.240 person.
00:39:57.080 Look at
00:39:57.500 my optimism.
00:39:58.700 My mouth,
00:39:59.680 it looks
00:40:00.120 scrunched up
00:40:00.960 like I
00:40:01.360 just ate
00:40:01.800 an
00:40:01.940 lemon,
00:40:02.940 but I'm
00:40:03.320 still smiling.
00:40:04.400 I'm still
00:40:05.280 smiling.
00:40:06.080 And look
00:40:06.440 at my
00:40:06.740 eyes.
00:40:07.500 My eyes
00:40:08.120 are,
00:40:08.600 I've got
00:40:09.060 kind eyes,
00:40:10.240 and I'm
00:40:10.700 smiling no
00:40:11.720 matter what
00:40:12.280 I say.
00:40:13.220 I'm so
00:40:13.740 sorry,
00:40:14.200 I'm
00:40:14.500 smiling.
00:40:14.900 And it
00:40:17.780 looked,
00:40:19.100 there was
00:40:19.620 some sort
00:40:20.100 of uncanny
00:40:22.380 valley situation
00:40:23.360 going on,
00:40:24.440 that it
00:40:24.840 looked so
00:40:26.100 fake that
00:40:28.400 I was really
00:40:29.060 sort of turned
00:40:29.760 off by it.
00:40:30.760 And I kept
00:40:31.340 wanting her to
00:40:31.960 just stop
00:40:32.900 making that
00:40:33.440 face.
00:40:34.600 But I think
00:40:35.400 that was the
00:40:35.920 face that she
00:40:36.740 was coached
00:40:37.440 into.
00:40:38.540 And then in
00:40:39.300 terms of her
00:40:39.880 delivery,
00:40:40.300 it was
00:40:41.540 slow,
00:40:42.800 boring,
00:40:43.600 forgettable.
00:40:46.700 It was
00:40:47.440 really bad.
00:40:49.040 As speeches
00:40:49.720 go,
00:40:51.500 I thought it
00:40:52.040 was quite,
00:40:52.940 quite bad.
00:40:55.280 That said,
00:40:56.360 how do you
00:40:56.940 think Democrats
00:40:57.760 received it?
00:40:59.060 Because they're
00:40:59.600 the only ones
00:41:00.160 who matter.
00:41:01.140 And the answer
00:41:01.820 is they
00:41:02.180 probably loved
00:41:02.660 it.
00:41:03.320 They probably
00:41:03.840 loved it.
00:41:04.500 Or at least
00:41:04.920 the people
00:41:05.360 on television
00:41:06.020 talking about
00:41:06.780 it said it
00:41:07.740 was an
00:41:08.320 amazing speech
00:41:09.260 and she was
00:41:09.880 introduced to
00:41:10.480 the world
00:41:10.880 and everything
00:41:12.020 will be
00:41:12.320 different.
00:41:13.340 But I think
00:41:14.540 she got a
00:41:14.980 little overcoached
00:41:15.880 and she didn't
00:41:16.660 get rid of her
00:41:17.420 nervous body
00:41:18.440 language.
00:41:19.520 I make fun of
00:41:20.560 this all the
00:41:20.960 time, that she
00:41:21.700 moves too much
00:41:22.380 when she talks
00:41:23.060 and she was
00:41:24.040 doing that again.
00:41:25.240 So now she
00:41:25.780 had a mismatch
00:41:26.680 between the
00:41:28.080 trying to talk
00:41:29.600 slow and kind.
00:41:31.340 I'm trying to
00:41:32.340 talk slow and
00:41:33.280 kind about all
00:41:34.800 the things in
00:41:35.560 my background
00:41:36.240 and what made
00:41:37.840 me the person
00:41:38.640 I am.
00:41:39.200 But her
00:41:39.860 body was
00:41:40.300 doing something
00:41:40.840 and a touch
00:41:41.480 with what she
00:41:42.040 was talking
00:41:42.480 about.
00:41:43.160 Her body
00:41:43.820 was acting
00:41:44.260 like there
00:41:44.640 was a
00:41:44.880 problem.
00:41:45.760 I got ants
00:41:46.420 in my
00:41:46.660 pants.
00:41:47.460 I've got a
00:41:47.820 little itch.
00:41:48.360 I've got an
00:41:49.800 itch in the
00:41:50.220 middle of my
00:41:50.600 back.
00:41:50.960 I wish I
00:41:51.280 could scratch
00:41:51.720 it, but
00:41:51.980 I'm talking.
00:41:53.420 So the
00:41:55.640 facial expression,
00:41:57.800 the voice,
00:41:59.260 the body
00:41:59.760 language,
00:42:01.180 they just
00:42:02.940 looked like
00:42:03.380 bad acting.
00:42:04.700 So I would
00:42:05.220 say it didn't
00:42:05.660 work at all.
00:42:06.240 However,
00:42:07.480 where her
00:42:08.420 coaches are
00:42:09.140 trying to
00:42:09.600 get her is
00:42:10.920 definitely closer
00:42:11.900 to what she
00:42:12.520 did last night
00:42:13.480 than what she
00:42:14.580 normally does.
00:42:15.800 They haven't
00:42:16.540 found that sweet
00:42:17.340 spot.
00:42:17.800 I don't know
00:42:18.100 if they will,
00:42:19.140 but what I've
00:42:19.660 said before
00:42:20.180 about Iris is
00:42:21.220 don't underestimate
00:42:23.100 her ability to
00:42:24.200 learn because she
00:42:26.140 is ambitious,
00:42:27.060 she is smart,
00:42:27.980 she got all the
00:42:28.700 way to here.
00:42:29.200 that's not
00:42:30.780 an accident.
00:42:32.060 She can
00:42:32.480 learn.
00:42:33.640 So you
00:42:34.180 might see,
00:42:34.920 even in 30
00:42:36.580 days, you
00:42:37.740 might see an
00:42:38.280 entirely different
00:42:39.140 look from her
00:42:39.880 and it might be
00:42:40.360 good because
00:42:41.560 her ability to
00:42:43.300 find the
00:42:44.000 right sweet
00:42:45.340 spot that
00:42:46.160 actually matches
00:42:46.940 her natural
00:42:47.520 personality better,
00:42:49.160 I think she
00:42:49.860 could do it,
00:42:51.220 but she's not
00:42:51.980 there.
00:42:52.780 I predicted
00:42:56.100 that you would
00:42:56.940 see last night
00:42:57.680 what I call
00:42:58.580 generic attacks
00:42:59.660 on Trump
00:43:00.280 because they
00:43:01.300 can't attack
00:43:01.980 him on
00:43:02.460 specifics.
00:43:03.620 The reason
00:43:04.220 they can't
00:43:04.680 attack him
00:43:05.100 on specifics
00:43:05.740 is that
00:43:06.320 leads to
00:43:06.760 many
00:43:07.040 counterattack
00:43:07.840 possibilities.
00:43:09.200 If you say,
00:43:10.180 well, he
00:43:10.620 ruined the
00:43:11.060 economy, I
00:43:12.740 think people
00:43:13.380 would reasonably
00:43:14.000 say, there
00:43:15.240 was a
00:43:15.580 coronavirus,
00:43:17.000 sort of
00:43:17.420 made a
00:43:17.700 difference.
00:43:18.960 People will
00:43:19.680 say, well,
00:43:20.380 he botched
00:43:22.120 the
00:43:22.520 coronavirus
00:43:23.060 response and
00:43:25.000 then people
00:43:25.340 would say,
00:43:25.880 well, what
00:43:26.240 is it you're
00:43:27.020 proposing we
00:43:27.700 would do?
00:43:28.280 And if they
00:43:28.720 asked that,
00:43:29.160 you would find
00:43:29.540 out it's
00:43:29.840 what we're
00:43:30.160 already doing.
00:43:32.060 So, anything
00:43:33.200 that they
00:43:33.580 would attack
00:43:34.120 on the, you
00:43:35.320 know, and
00:43:35.720 how about
00:43:36.080 you're not
00:43:37.040 good with
00:43:37.480 terrorists and
00:43:39.220 then the
00:43:39.560 Republicans
00:43:39.960 would say,
00:43:40.700 tell
00:43:41.320 Soleimani
00:43:41.960 that,
00:43:44.060 Soleimani,
00:43:44.700 Soleimani,
00:43:45.720 tell ISIS
00:43:46.440 he's not
00:43:47.080 good with
00:43:47.600 terrorists.
00:43:48.860 I mean,
00:43:49.380 it's really
00:43:50.060 hard to make
00:43:50.760 an attack on
00:43:51.580 the,
00:43:51.820 on the
00:43:53.200 details
00:43:53.740 because he's
00:43:55.520 so good
00:43:55.880 on the
00:43:56.160 details.
00:43:56.680 If you
00:43:57.000 can measure
00:43:57.640 it, he
00:43:58.620 probably did
00:43:59.260 well.
00:44:00.280 Can you
00:44:00.740 measure the
00:44:01.360 number of
00:44:01.840 people he
00:44:02.300 put on
00:44:02.680 the Supreme
00:44:03.220 Court?
00:44:04.120 You can.
00:44:05.300 You can
00:44:05.680 just count
00:44:06.120 them.
00:44:07.060 It's a
00:44:07.500 measurable
00:44:07.940 thing, and
00:44:08.860 according to
00:44:09.560 the people who
00:44:10.060 voted for
00:44:10.580 him, did
00:44:11.580 well.
00:44:12.260 Can you
00:44:12.680 measure
00:44:13.100 unemployment
00:44:13.900 before the
00:44:14.900 coronavirus?
00:44:15.700 You can.
00:44:16.580 Can you
00:44:16.980 measure GDP?
00:44:18.620 You can.
00:44:19.640 Can you
00:44:19.980 look at the
00:44:20.500 stock market
00:44:21.240 and see if
00:44:21.780 at least the
00:44:22.840 people are
00:44:23.240 optimistic about
00:44:24.080 the future,
00:44:24.960 which is sort
00:44:25.540 of what it
00:44:25.820 tells you?
00:44:26.700 You can.
00:44:27.820 There's an
00:44:28.200 actual number.
00:44:28.920 It's called
00:44:29.180 the Dow Jones.
00:44:31.140 So they're
00:44:32.200 staying away
00:44:32.740 from anything
00:44:33.520 you can
00:44:33.940 measure,
00:44:34.620 because that's
00:44:35.020 just trouble,
00:44:35.880 which is,
00:44:37.460 if you only
00:44:38.720 knew that,
00:44:40.160 let's say you
00:44:40.880 came from
00:44:41.340 another planet,
00:44:42.180 you were trying
00:44:42.540 to decide who
00:44:43.220 would be the
00:44:43.640 next best
00:44:44.340 president for
00:44:45.100 the next
00:44:45.640 term,
00:44:45.900 and the
00:44:46.920 only thing
00:44:47.520 you knew
00:44:47.940 is that
00:44:49.220 one side
00:44:49.860 was talking
00:44:50.380 about measurable
00:44:51.460 accomplishments
00:44:52.200 and the
00:44:53.220 other side
00:44:53.680 was criticizing
00:44:54.600 them on
00:44:55.240 things that
00:44:55.700 have nothing
00:44:56.120 to do with
00:44:56.600 the accomplishments,
00:44:57.860 who would
00:44:58.780 you pick
00:44:59.260 if that's
00:45:00.260 all you
00:45:00.560 knew?
00:45:01.780 So here
00:45:02.380 are the
00:45:03.260 non-words
00:45:04.060 and generic
00:45:04.720 attacks that
00:45:05.380 we heard
00:45:05.600 from last
00:45:06.040 night.
00:45:07.480 By the
00:45:08.040 way,
00:45:08.200 I tweeted
00:45:08.540 yesterday
00:45:09.020 before last
00:45:10.460 night's
00:45:10.900 stuff that
00:45:13.240 what you'd
00:45:13.940 see is
00:45:14.440 this,
00:45:15.040 people would
00:45:16.060 be saying
00:45:16.480 orange man
00:45:17.220 is,
00:45:17.640 and they
00:45:17.920 fill in
00:45:18.300 the character
00:45:18.760 flaw,
00:45:19.380 whatever
00:45:19.620 character
00:45:20.060 flaw they
00:45:20.460 want to
00:45:20.700 give Trump,
00:45:21.760 and therefore
00:45:22.440 some bad
00:45:23.760 outcome,
00:45:24.760 but they
00:45:25.140 won't be
00:45:25.480 connected.
00:45:27.340 Yeah,
00:45:27.840 Baghdadi,
00:45:28.560 Soleimani,
00:45:29.780 he did get
00:45:30.440 rid of a few
00:45:30.920 people,
00:45:31.960 Trump did.
00:45:33.200 All right,
00:45:33.520 so here are
00:45:33.920 some of the
00:45:34.260 things that
00:45:35.180 they said
00:45:37.220 about Trump.
00:45:38.980 So they
00:45:39.800 said that
00:45:40.220 Biden has
00:45:41.200 decency,
00:45:42.000 honor,
00:45:42.240 and dignity,
00:45:43.240 which implies
00:45:44.100 that Trump
00:45:45.160 doesn't have
00:45:45.820 decency,
00:45:47.000 honor,
00:45:47.260 and dignity.
00:45:48.220 So then I
00:45:49.140 say,
00:45:49.620 okay,
00:45:50.540 suppose that's
00:45:51.280 true.
00:45:52.320 Suppose
00:45:52.720 everything you
00:45:53.280 said is
00:45:53.580 true.
00:45:54.520 How does
00:45:55.220 that matter
00:45:55.620 to me?
00:45:56.560 You're not
00:45:57.060 connecting the
00:45:57.760 dots.
00:45:59.080 Okay,
00:46:00.240 let's say
00:46:00.820 Trump doesn't
00:46:02.220 have as
00:46:03.360 much decency,
00:46:04.440 honor,
00:46:04.640 and dignity
00:46:05.260 as Joe
00:46:05.960 Biden.
00:46:06.540 Let's say
00:46:06.980 I accept
00:46:07.460 that.
00:46:08.500 How did
00:46:09.160 that make
00:46:09.540 my taxes
00:46:10.120 change?
00:46:11.420 Did China
00:46:12.220 attack us?
00:46:13.960 Did
00:46:14.360 NATO
00:46:16.460 kick us
00:46:17.440 out?
00:46:18.700 How in
00:46:19.200 the world
00:46:19.760 does any
00:46:20.360 of this
00:46:20.640 translate
00:46:21.160 into anything
00:46:21.780 that matters
00:46:22.360 to the
00:46:22.840 bottom line?
00:46:23.480 I can't
00:46:24.040 see any.
00:46:24.660 I can't
00:46:25.060 even see
00:46:25.340 the argument
00:46:25.860 for it,
00:46:26.880 much less
00:46:27.520 see it
00:46:28.080 in the
00:46:28.300 outcome.
00:46:30.360 Here's
00:46:30.820 some more.
00:46:31.960 Kamala Harris
00:46:32.540 said that
00:46:32.960 one of the
00:46:33.380 things that
00:46:34.360 Trump has
00:46:35.680 done that's
00:46:36.120 bad is
00:46:37.180 we have a
00:46:38.020 loss of
00:46:38.560 certainty.
00:46:39.980 A loss
00:46:40.560 of
00:46:40.740 certainty?
00:46:42.000 When did
00:46:42.440 we ever
00:46:42.760 have
00:46:42.940 certainty?
00:46:44.200 Do you
00:46:44.560 ever
00:46:44.740 remember
00:46:45.140 a time
00:46:45.660 back in
00:46:46.700 Obama's
00:46:47.200 days when
00:46:47.680 we had
00:46:48.080 certainty?
00:46:49.360 About what?
00:46:51.040 We don't
00:46:51.660 live in a
00:46:52.100 world with
00:46:52.540 certainty.
00:46:53.200 What kind
00:46:53.480 of a
00:46:53.840 dumbass
00:46:54.740 thing is
00:46:55.100 that to
00:46:55.400 say about
00:46:55.820 a president
00:46:56.300 that he's
00:46:57.420 caused a
00:46:57.880 loss of
00:46:58.380 certainty?
00:47:00.060 I don't
00:47:00.580 know.
00:47:00.820 and of
00:47:03.380 course
00:47:03.600 chaos.
00:47:04.500 They like
00:47:04.900 to use
00:47:05.240 chaos.
00:47:06.180 What is
00:47:06.780 the
00:47:07.260 Republican
00:47:08.300 version
00:47:08.880 of
00:47:09.500 chaos?
00:47:10.560 If you're
00:47:11.180 going to
00:47:11.360 say this
00:47:13.900 president
00:47:14.360 has too
00:47:15.760 much chaos,
00:47:16.740 here's what
00:47:17.120 I'm going
00:47:17.400 to say.
00:47:18.640 We call
00:47:19.380 it
00:47:19.640 shaking
00:47:20.200 the box.
00:47:21.140 I'm not
00:47:21.520 a Republican
00:47:22.040 but I'll
00:47:22.880 use we
00:47:23.300 in this
00:47:23.620 case as
00:47:24.500 pro-Trump.
00:47:26.080 He shakes
00:47:26.940 the box.
00:47:28.060 We talk
00:47:28.540 about this
00:47:29.000 in positive
00:47:29.660 terms all
00:47:30.580 the time.
00:47:31.640 In every
00:47:32.280 realm that
00:47:32.860 he enters,
00:47:33.920 the first
00:47:34.420 thing he
00:47:34.720 does is he
00:47:35.220 shakes the
00:47:35.680 box.
00:47:36.560 Because
00:47:36.880 whatever was
00:47:37.540 happening before
00:47:38.220 he got there
00:47:38.800 wasn't working.
00:47:40.340 And if you
00:47:41.540 couldn't fix
00:47:42.220 it with the
00:47:42.780 current situation,
00:47:44.460 whatever topic
00:47:45.220 you're talking
00:47:45.720 about, if
00:47:46.660 there's something
00:47:47.120 about it that's
00:47:47.820 just stuck and
00:47:48.940 a solution is
00:47:49.900 hard, the
00:47:50.920 first thing he
00:47:51.380 does is he
00:47:51.840 just grabs it
00:47:52.440 and shakes
00:47:52.780 it.
00:47:53.900 Now what?
00:47:54.960 It looks like
00:47:55.540 things are a
00:47:56.000 little different.
00:47:57.020 At least the
00:47:57.440 way we're
00:47:57.740 looking at it
00:47:58.320 is different.
00:47:59.360 Did that
00:47:59.800 work?
00:48:00.320 No?
00:48:01.000 Let me
00:48:01.300 shake it
00:48:01.620 again.
00:48:02.860 And watching
00:48:04.760 that happen
00:48:05.440 in real
00:48:05.840 time, it's
00:48:06.920 easy to say
00:48:07.520 that's chaos
00:48:08.320 because it
00:48:09.080 looks like he's
00:48:09.580 just trying
00:48:10.060 stuff all the
00:48:10.700 time.
00:48:10.940 He'll just
00:48:11.220 toss out an
00:48:12.680 idea.
00:48:13.460 How many
00:48:13.720 times have
00:48:14.140 you heard,
00:48:15.480 has it
00:48:15.800 happened, that
00:48:17.640 Trump would
00:48:18.220 tweet something
00:48:18.880 and then some
00:48:20.280 agency within
00:48:21.240 the government
00:48:21.820 would say,
00:48:22.400 no, we
00:48:22.720 don't do
00:48:23.040 that or we
00:48:23.540 can't do
00:48:23.900 that or they'll
00:48:25.060 disagree with
00:48:25.600 him or that's
00:48:26.040 not our policy
00:48:26.720 or something?
00:48:27.560 Happens all the
00:48:28.180 time.
00:48:29.120 Is that
00:48:29.460 chaos?
00:48:31.340 Nope.
00:48:32.840 Because do
00:48:33.840 you know what
00:48:34.140 happens every
00:48:35.420 time that
00:48:35.920 happens?
00:48:36.440 Every time that
00:48:37.080 happens, the
00:48:38.080 entire brain of
00:48:39.860 the country, you
00:48:40.560 know, all of us
00:48:41.120 individually, we
00:48:42.100 start focusing on
00:48:43.140 that thing he
00:48:43.620 wanted us to
00:48:44.220 focus on.
00:48:45.320 Maybe he was
00:48:45.960 right, maybe he
00:48:46.760 was wrong, maybe
00:48:47.460 he disagrees with
00:48:48.340 his own
00:48:48.680 administration.
00:48:49.160 But what
00:48:50.560 happens is, the
00:48:51.580 actual practical
00:48:52.580 outcome is we
00:48:54.160 all learn about
00:48:54.900 that thing.
00:48:56.040 We learn why
00:48:56.740 he was wrong, if
00:48:57.620 he was wrong, we
00:48:58.780 learn what is
00:48:59.320 right, we learn
00:49:00.260 why they're doing
00:49:00.900 it the way
00:49:01.240 they're doing
00:49:01.580 it, and we
00:49:01.980 learn what the
00:49:02.440 obstacle is, and
00:49:03.560 we learn it
00:49:04.040 instantly.
00:49:05.180 And sometimes
00:49:05.860 that helps.
00:49:07.660 Does it ever
00:49:08.340 hurt?
00:49:09.700 Not yet.
00:49:11.180 I can't think
00:49:11.780 of a time.
00:49:12.700 Can you think
00:49:13.180 of a time that
00:49:13.840 Trump tweeted
00:49:15.040 that thing that
00:49:15.660 wasn't true and
00:49:16.380 something bad
00:49:16.960 happened?
00:49:17.280 I can't.
00:49:19.920 The only times
00:49:20.580 that something
00:49:21.380 like that may
00:49:22.380 have sort of
00:49:22.900 happened is
00:49:23.960 when the
00:49:24.500 illegitimate press,
00:49:25.900 the fake news,
00:49:27.080 turns it into
00:49:27.920 something it
00:49:28.460 wasn't.
00:49:29.500 If you take
00:49:30.100 away the impact
00:49:31.680 of the bad
00:49:33.300 intentions of
00:49:34.060 the press, if
00:49:35.180 you took that
00:49:35.640 out of the
00:49:35.900 equation, he
00:49:37.720 doesn't really
00:49:38.220 cause any
00:49:38.720 trouble with
00:49:39.300 his tweets
00:49:39.920 that are
00:49:40.340 accurate,
00:49:40.980 inaccurate,
00:49:42.120 provocative,
00:49:42.920 not provocative,
00:49:43.900 offensive,
00:49:44.560 not offensive.
00:49:45.480 It doesn't
00:49:46.160 really seem to
00:49:46.740 hurt anything.
00:49:47.280 It just
00:49:47.640 makes us
00:49:48.020 smarter and
00:49:49.140 it makes
00:49:49.400 us focus.
00:49:52.180 They call
00:49:52.900 it chaos.
00:49:56.680 The other
00:49:57.340 thing Harris
00:49:58.300 says is we
00:49:58.940 need a
00:49:59.240 president who
00:49:59.760 will do
00:50:00.100 the work.
00:50:01.700 Do the
00:50:02.140 work, that's
00:50:02.960 sort of a
00:50:04.400 identity
00:50:07.120 politics term.
00:50:08.900 Doing the
00:50:09.360 work means
00:50:10.400 brainwashing
00:50:11.800 yourself into
00:50:12.540 a new point
00:50:13.360 of view.
00:50:14.280 Because you
00:50:14.760 do have to
00:50:15.200 brainwash
00:50:15.660 yourself to
00:50:16.280 adopt any
00:50:17.080 view.
00:50:18.040 The current
00:50:18.560 view you
00:50:18.980 have is
00:50:19.360 probably a
00:50:19.780 result of
00:50:20.240 brainwashing.
00:50:21.380 But doing
00:50:21.780 the work is
00:50:23.300 the process of
00:50:24.180 re-brainwashing
00:50:25.420 yourself in a
00:50:26.060 different way.
00:50:27.620 But it's
00:50:28.340 kind of
00:50:28.680 non-specific.
00:50:30.380 And then
00:50:30.640 Obama, so
00:50:33.920 watching the
00:50:34.860 CNN hosts
00:50:36.780 and guests
00:50:37.360 talk about
00:50:38.740 Obama and
00:50:39.720 Michelle Obama's
00:50:40.740 speeches, it's
00:50:44.140 really fun if
00:50:45.560 you're not on
00:50:46.100 the same page.
00:50:47.060 Because you're
00:50:47.580 just seeing
00:50:47.960 like it's
00:50:48.360 like a
00:50:48.640 different world.
00:50:50.360 And apparently
00:50:50.920 they think that
00:50:52.020 Michelle Obama
00:50:52.740 did a great
00:50:53.360 speech, one
00:50:54.900 that was better
00:50:55.380 than anybody
00:50:55.880 else's speech.
00:50:56.980 I watched
00:50:57.980 much of it.
00:50:59.760 I didn't see
00:51:00.360 that at all.
00:51:01.340 I didn't think
00:51:02.200 it was even
00:51:02.760 good.
00:51:05.280 Did you?
00:51:06.720 Now, I
00:51:07.300 can't tell how
00:51:07.860 much of this
00:51:08.340 is bias, because
00:51:09.820 the team element
00:51:11.260 of just wanting
00:51:12.040 to agree with
00:51:12.680 your team is
00:51:13.180 so strong.
00:51:14.280 But I don't
00:51:15.660 feel as if
00:51:16.820 AOC had
00:51:17.600 given a speech.
00:51:18.320 I use her as
00:51:18.920 my generic
00:51:19.740 example of
00:51:20.520 somebody who's
00:51:21.000 a good
00:51:21.280 communicator.
00:51:22.460 I don't feel
00:51:23.220 like I would
00:51:23.680 have had that
00:51:24.300 same feeling
00:51:25.380 if AOC had
00:51:26.280 given a speech.
00:51:27.500 Because I think
00:51:28.260 she's a whole
00:51:28.760 different level.
00:51:30.480 I don't think
00:51:31.000 Michelle Obama,
00:51:32.800 as good as
00:51:35.280 her intentions
00:51:35.920 are.
00:51:36.720 I think she's
00:51:37.320 a quite
00:51:37.620 honorable person.
00:51:40.100 But her
00:51:40.560 speech?
00:51:41.740 I didn't even
00:51:42.560 feel that was
00:51:43.520 above average,
00:51:45.360 really.
00:51:46.400 And then Obama
00:51:47.300 gave his speech,
00:51:48.220 and I thought,
00:51:48.760 well, I've
00:51:50.340 watched him for
00:51:50.880 a long time.
00:51:51.480 That man can
00:51:52.240 give a speech.
00:51:53.740 And I thought
00:51:54.280 to myself,
00:51:54.820 Obama's going
00:51:55.460 to be strong.
00:51:56.040 He's really
00:51:56.380 going to be
00:51:56.700 bringing the
00:51:57.200 heat.
00:51:58.980 And of course,
00:51:59.420 CNN says that's
00:52:00.300 exactly what
00:52:00.880 happened, that he
00:52:02.240 just eviscerated
00:52:03.600 the president and
00:52:04.980 really
00:52:05.240 really came
00:52:06.440 strong.
00:52:07.560 And then I
00:52:07.880 listened to what
00:52:08.480 he said.
00:52:09.700 It was the
00:52:10.400 weakest damn
00:52:11.100 thing.
00:52:11.740 Here's some of
00:52:12.420 the things he
00:52:12.740 said.
00:52:14.160 Now remember I
00:52:14.640 told you that
00:52:15.120 the leaf blower
00:52:15.960 would find
00:52:17.380 leaves directly
00:52:18.940 below my
00:52:19.640 office window
00:52:20.520 for a solid
00:52:21.640 hour?
00:52:22.700 I wasn't
00:52:23.180 wrong.
00:52:24.020 It's been a
00:52:24.460 solid hour of
00:52:25.260 weed blowing
00:52:25.740 right below my
00:52:27.060 window.
00:52:27.800 How is that
00:52:28.400 even possible?
00:52:28.940 Anyway, here's
00:52:30.420 what Obama
00:52:30.960 I might murder
00:52:35.040 the leaf blower
00:52:36.180 guy in a
00:52:36.700 minute.
00:52:38.840 Obama said
00:52:39.840 that I never
00:52:41.640 expected that my
00:52:42.520 successor,
00:52:43.360 meaning Trump,
00:52:44.120 would embrace
00:52:44.620 my vision or
00:52:45.420 continue my
00:52:46.140 policies.
00:52:47.440 So I'm already
00:52:48.540 bored.
00:52:49.860 My successor
00:52:50.680 would embrace
00:52:51.740 my vision or
00:52:54.060 continue my
00:52:55.400 policies.
00:52:57.860 So that's
00:53:01.100 pure Obama
00:53:02.340 talk.
00:53:03.220 Every word
00:53:03.860 is a lawyer
00:53:05.000 trying.
00:53:05.780 Seriously, I
00:53:06.660 think the leaf
00:53:07.240 blower is going
00:53:07.800 to come into
00:53:08.300 my.
00:53:09.540 All right.
00:53:11.380 Don't swear.
00:53:13.580 No cursing.
00:53:15.140 But if that
00:53:15.820 leaf blower shows
00:53:16.800 up in my office,
00:53:18.020 I would not be
00:53:18.720 surprised.
00:53:19.420 I don't know
00:53:19.820 how much closer
00:53:20.520 he can get to
00:53:21.280 where I'm
00:53:21.680 sitting.
00:53:25.320 Oh God, this
00:53:26.300 is bugging me.
00:53:27.860 I'm going to
00:53:29.060 try to get
00:53:29.580 over this.
00:53:31.020 And by the
00:53:31.680 way, never
00:53:33.500 mind.
00:53:35.840 So this is
00:53:36.700 what Obama
00:53:38.220 said.
00:53:39.560 If you can
00:53:40.560 hear me over
00:53:41.300 the leaf blower,
00:53:43.060 this is what
00:53:43.660 Obama said.
00:53:45.020 I didn't expect
00:53:45.680 him to embrace
00:53:46.220 my vision or
00:53:46.760 continue my
00:53:47.300 policies.
00:53:48.200 I did hope
00:53:48.960 for the sake
00:53:49.520 of the country
00:53:50.060 that Donald
00:53:50.800 Trump might
00:53:51.500 show some
00:53:52.060 interest in
00:53:53.000 taking the
00:53:53.520 job seriously.
00:53:54.460 what?
00:53:57.380 His attack
00:53:58.220 on Trump
00:54:01.540 is that he
00:54:02.820 read his
00:54:03.360 mind and he
00:54:04.440 saw on the
00:54:05.200 inside of
00:54:05.820 Trump's mind
00:54:06.620 where nobody
00:54:07.200 else can see
00:54:07.820 it.
00:54:08.500 He saw in
00:54:09.140 there that
00:54:09.560 Trump doesn't
00:54:10.200 take the job
00:54:10.940 seriously.
00:54:12.580 Do you get
00:54:13.500 that?
00:54:14.400 Is that what
00:54:15.220 you're seeing?
00:54:16.720 Are you feeling
00:54:17.660 as if the
00:54:18.200 president doesn't
00:54:19.000 take the job
00:54:19.740 seriously?
00:54:21.000 How about,
00:54:21.720 why don't we
00:54:22.120 ask ISIS?
00:54:22.820 ISIS, do you
00:54:24.680 think the
00:54:25.020 president took
00:54:25.700 the job
00:54:26.260 seriously?
00:54:27.260 Oh, that's
00:54:27.840 right, you're
00:54:28.340 all dead.
00:54:30.240 How about,
00:54:30.860 let's talk to
00:54:32.580 Iran.
00:54:33.900 Hey, Iran, do
00:54:35.060 you think the
00:54:35.480 president's taking
00:54:36.380 his job
00:54:37.640 seriously?
00:54:38.640 Yeah, you
00:54:39.060 do.
00:54:40.400 How about
00:54:40.840 China that
00:54:41.540 we're decoupling
00:54:42.360 from?
00:54:43.360 Didn't see that
00:54:44.000 coming, did
00:54:44.500 you, China?
00:54:45.420 Hey, China, do
00:54:46.460 you think the
00:54:46.920 president's taking
00:54:47.760 it seriously?
00:54:48.820 He's decoupling
00:54:49.720 and destroying
00:54:50.360 your whole damn
00:54:51.180 country.
00:54:51.640 for the
00:54:52.940 benefit of the
00:54:53.420 United States.
00:54:54.020 Is that
00:54:54.260 taking it
00:54:54.740 seriously?
00:54:55.380 Because that
00:54:55.880 sounds pretty
00:54:56.400 serious to
00:54:57.220 me.
00:54:58.320 The president
00:54:59.200 is willing to
00:55:00.140 send in the
00:55:00.960 National Guard
00:55:02.120 to fix the
00:55:03.320 democratic
00:55:04.040 violence in
00:55:05.600 the cities,
00:55:06.320 but they have
00:55:07.200 to ask.
00:55:08.680 They're ready.
00:55:09.880 Does that
00:55:10.280 sound like not
00:55:11.080 taking the
00:55:11.620 job seriously?
00:55:12.740 No, it's
00:55:13.620 the opposite.
00:55:14.480 That's taking
00:55:15.000 the job really,
00:55:16.180 really seriously.
00:55:17.460 How about the
00:55:17.880 fact that he
00:55:18.380 brags about
00:55:19.120 before coronavirus,
00:55:20.720 how good the
00:55:21.440 employment was
00:55:22.340 for black
00:55:23.740 Americans and
00:55:24.600 every other
00:55:25.380 group?
00:55:26.660 Does he say
00:55:27.320 that a lot?
00:55:28.400 Yeah.
00:55:29.340 He can't
00:55:29.880 stop saying
00:55:30.620 how good
00:55:31.380 employment was
00:55:32.880 before this
00:55:33.440 trouble.
00:55:34.340 So I've
00:55:35.320 never seen
00:55:35.700 anybody take
00:55:36.360 anything more
00:55:37.080 seriously than
00:55:37.900 the presidency,
00:55:38.980 and for that
00:55:39.860 to be their
00:55:40.720 line of attack,
00:55:42.300 they're reading
00:55:42.940 his mind,
00:55:43.940 and he's not
00:55:44.480 taking it
00:55:44.980 seriously?
00:55:46.300 Are you
00:55:47.100 kidding me?
00:55:47.780 If there's
00:55:48.980 one thing
00:55:49.520 that I would
00:55:50.000 say with
00:55:50.460 complete
00:55:51.080 certainty,
00:55:52.140 he's taking
00:55:52.720 it seriously.
00:55:53.940 And here's
00:55:54.280 the other
00:55:54.560 thing.
00:55:56.780 I always
00:55:57.840 think that
00:55:58.360 it's true
00:55:59.220 that the
00:55:59.820 person changes
00:56:01.340 the presidency.
00:56:02.260 It's true
00:56:02.600 that Trump
00:56:03.100 has changed
00:56:03.540 the presidency.
00:56:04.740 Everybody
00:56:05.140 who inhabits
00:56:05.760 the office
00:56:06.240 changes the
00:56:07.520 presidency a
00:56:08.420 little bit.
00:56:09.220 But far
00:56:10.000 more than
00:56:10.460 that, the
00:56:11.160 office changes
00:56:11.940 the person.
00:56:13.320 And it's
00:56:13.620 my belief,
00:56:14.800 and I'm
00:56:15.380 quite firm in
00:56:16.160 this belief,
00:56:16.600 that unless
00:56:17.420 you have
00:56:17.640 somebody who's
00:56:18.080 literally crazy,
00:56:19.700 by the time
00:56:20.320 they become
00:56:20.760 president, they
00:56:21.660 are so
00:56:22.280 indoctrinated in
00:56:24.180 being a good
00:56:25.900 president and
00:56:26.900 making sure the
00:56:27.780 country does
00:56:28.320 well, that they
00:56:29.520 can't do anything
00:56:30.120 else.
00:56:31.040 Now, some
00:56:31.400 will do a
00:56:31.800 better job,
00:56:32.380 some will be
00:56:32.800 a worse job,
00:56:33.800 but they all
00:56:34.840 care by the
00:56:36.500 time they get
00:56:37.100 to the
00:56:37.380 presidency.
00:56:38.560 Even if they
00:56:39.180 didn't on
00:56:39.880 day one,
00:56:40.860 they become
00:56:41.620 indistinguishable
00:56:43.200 from the
00:56:43.660 country.
00:56:44.640 Once you're
00:56:45.100 the president,
00:56:45.620 president, it's
00:56:46.420 not like you
00:56:47.180 have a good
00:56:47.640 day, but the
00:56:48.220 country has a
00:56:48.840 bad day.
00:56:49.660 That can't
00:56:50.380 happen.
00:56:51.560 It can't
00:56:52.040 happen when
00:56:52.520 you're the
00:56:52.780 president.
00:56:53.580 If the
00:56:53.940 country does
00:56:54.520 well, you
00:56:55.240 had a good
00:56:55.720 day.
00:56:56.380 If the
00:56:56.780 country did
00:56:57.280 poorly, you
00:56:58.160 had a bad
00:56:58.760 day.
00:56:59.360 And I don't
00:56:59.660 care who
00:57:00.120 you are,
00:57:01.060 Trump, Obama,
00:57:02.120 Clinton, Reagan,
00:57:03.100 it doesn't
00:57:03.600 matter.
00:57:04.540 If the
00:57:04.960 country does
00:57:05.540 well, you
00:57:06.000 had a good
00:57:06.480 day, period.
00:57:07.880 If the
00:57:08.300 country doesn't,
00:57:09.060 you didn't
00:57:09.540 have a good
00:57:09.940 day.
00:57:10.740 And there's
00:57:11.280 no way that
00:57:12.080 changes, and
00:57:12.840 there's no way
00:57:13.600 that you should
00:57:14.800 be dumb enough to
00:57:15.600 think that
00:57:16.620 Obama can
00:57:17.260 read Trump's
00:57:18.600 mind and see
00:57:19.420 in there there's
00:57:20.000 a lack of
00:57:20.540 seriousness.
00:57:21.980 Because that
00:57:22.820 would be just
00:57:23.560 batshit crazy.
00:57:25.140 It doesn't
00:57:25.580 matter who it
00:57:26.220 is, Trump or
00:57:26.860 anybody else,
00:57:27.760 they're serious
00:57:28.640 by the time
00:57:29.760 they're in that
00:57:30.180 job.
00:57:30.520 There's no
00:57:30.880 option.
00:57:32.080 You don't
00:57:32.340 have the option
00:57:33.440 of just playing
00:57:34.340 at that job.
00:57:36.300 Maybe you
00:57:36.900 could find ways
00:57:37.420 to enjoy
00:57:37.840 yourself, but
00:57:38.360 he's not
00:57:38.680 playing.
00:57:39.640 It's serious
00:57:40.400 business.
00:57:43.800 Here's some
00:57:44.800 other faint
00:57:45.500 praise he
00:57:46.260 said about
00:57:46.740 Biden.
00:57:47.360 This is
00:57:47.680 Obama.
00:57:48.740 Quote,
00:57:49.120 he was my
00:57:49.660 brother in
00:57:50.180 the White
00:57:50.480 House.
00:57:51.100 He made
00:57:51.520 me a better
00:57:51.980 president.
00:57:52.700 He will
00:57:52.980 make it a
00:57:53.380 better country.
00:57:55.000 Now, how
00:57:56.140 do you
00:57:56.360 interpret he
00:57:57.000 made me a
00:57:57.540 better president?
00:57:59.100 Wasn't that
00:57:59.740 Obama bragging
00:58:00.640 about himself?
00:58:01.820 If the best
00:58:02.600 compliment you
00:58:03.360 could give
00:58:03.760 another person
00:58:04.540 is that they
00:58:05.080 made you
00:58:05.580 better, that's
00:58:07.020 a little bit
00:58:07.580 more about
00:58:08.120 you, isn't
00:58:09.720 it?
00:58:10.760 Yeah, I
00:58:11.300 think Obama
00:58:11.920 was bragging
00:58:12.800 how he
00:58:13.260 got better
00:58:13.860 because of
00:58:15.380 Biden?
00:58:16.660 I don't
00:58:17.120 know exactly
00:58:17.960 how.
00:58:18.820 What was it
00:58:19.460 that Biden
00:58:19.880 did that
00:58:20.400 made him
00:58:22.160 a better
00:58:22.500 president?
00:58:23.320 I don't
00:58:23.660 know.
00:58:24.520 It's
00:58:24.780 unstated.
00:58:25.800 And then he
00:58:26.440 says he
00:58:26.780 was my
00:58:27.180 brother in
00:58:27.720 the White
00:58:28.000 House.
00:58:28.960 What's that
00:58:29.460 mean?
00:58:30.380 Are we
00:58:30.760 supposed to
00:58:31.180 like him
00:58:31.540 as our
00:58:31.840 president
00:58:32.180 because he
00:58:32.700 was your
00:58:33.020 brother in
00:58:33.480 the White
00:58:33.740 House?
00:58:33.960 it's all
00:58:35.800 these nonsense
00:58:37.500 kind of
00:58:38.180 words that
00:58:39.400 if you
00:58:39.700 didn't put
00:58:40.100 any critical
00:58:40.720 thinking to
00:58:41.320 it, you'd
00:58:41.580 say, oh,
00:58:42.520 this makes
00:58:43.060 sense.
00:58:43.780 I love
00:58:44.320 Biden because
00:58:44.820 he was like
00:58:45.240 Obama's
00:58:45.720 brother in
00:58:46.140 the White
00:58:46.400 House.
00:58:46.860 It doesn't
00:58:47.400 mean anything.
00:58:48.600 There's no
00:58:49.320 meaning.
00:58:51.780 All right.
00:58:53.340 What else
00:58:54.020 did he say
00:58:54.400 that was, but
00:58:56.860 he never did.
00:58:57.680 This is Obama
00:58:58.320 talking about
00:58:58.940 Trump.
00:58:59.760 For close to
00:59:00.360 four years
00:59:00.860 now, he's
00:59:01.440 shown no
00:59:01.940 interest in
00:59:02.600 putting in
00:59:03.540 the work.
00:59:04.560 So this
00:59:04.840 is the
00:59:05.140 phrase here,
00:59:05.760 the work.
00:59:06.800 He has no
00:59:07.280 interest in
00:59:07.760 putting in
00:59:08.160 the work.
00:59:08.960 No interest
00:59:09.660 in finding
00:59:10.160 common ground.
00:59:12.300 Based on
00:59:12.960 what?
00:59:13.780 How can
00:59:14.160 you tell
00:59:14.460 somebody has
00:59:15.360 no interest
00:59:15.980 in using
00:59:17.760 the awesome
00:59:18.200 power?
00:59:18.560 It's just
00:59:19.000 bullshit.
00:59:20.460 So I would
00:59:21.000 say that
00:59:21.300 Obama's speech
00:59:22.180 was weak.
00:59:23.660 Now part of
00:59:24.080 that is that
00:59:24.680 if you watch
00:59:25.320 Trump for
00:59:26.360 four years,
00:59:27.860 Trump brings
00:59:28.560 the entertainment,
00:59:29.520 he brings
00:59:29.820 the energy,
00:59:30.560 he brings
00:59:30.900 the provocation,
00:59:32.440 he brings
00:59:32.920 the whole
00:59:33.520 package to
00:59:34.640 a speech.
00:59:35.620 And we
00:59:36.100 used to
00:59:36.500 think Obama
00:59:37.080 was really
00:59:37.580 good at
00:59:37.920 this.
00:59:38.960 But now I
00:59:39.860 watch it,
00:59:40.440 and even
00:59:40.700 though other
00:59:41.640 people are
00:59:42.040 saying he
00:59:42.380 nailed it and
00:59:42.960 this was a
00:59:43.400 powerful speech,
00:59:44.260 I didn't see
00:59:44.940 any of that.
00:59:46.420 It felt
00:59:47.100 empty and
00:59:48.220 listless and
00:59:49.620 completely bereft
00:59:51.620 of energy.
00:59:53.620 I saw it as
00:59:54.640 a pillow fight
00:59:55.760 against a
00:59:56.740 knife attack,
00:59:57.680 really.
00:59:57.920 on another
01:00:02.480 topic, I
01:00:03.220 think we
01:00:03.500 need an
01:00:03.900 executive
01:00:04.300 order to
01:00:05.240 allow parents
01:00:06.060 to always
01:00:06.620 have a
01:00:06.940 telestream,
01:00:07.800 a live
01:00:08.180 video into
01:00:08.820 classrooms.
01:00:10.120 Because as
01:00:10.820 you know,
01:00:11.180 the teachers
01:00:11.580 unions are
01:00:12.240 destroying
01:00:12.740 America.
01:00:13.760 And by the
01:00:14.080 way, if you
01:00:14.540 don't know how
01:00:15.100 they're doing
01:00:15.520 it, the
01:00:16.600 teachers unions
01:00:17.360 have tons of
01:00:18.300 money because
01:00:19.540 there are lots
01:00:20.240 of teachers.
01:00:21.260 As long as
01:00:22.060 there are lots
01:00:22.600 of teachers
01:00:23.080 and they all
01:00:23.740 pay dues,
01:00:25.140 you're going to
01:00:25.600 have a lot
01:00:25.940 of money.
01:00:27.080 So the
01:00:27.920 nature of
01:00:28.620 who they
01:00:29.040 represent,
01:00:29.900 just because
01:00:30.420 there are a
01:00:30.800 lot of them,
01:00:32.000 guarantees that
01:00:32.800 they'll have a
01:00:33.220 lot of money
01:00:33.720 from the dues
01:00:34.460 and then they
01:00:35.300 can use that
01:00:35.840 money politically.
01:00:37.800 So part of
01:00:38.860 what the
01:00:39.180 teachers unions
01:00:39.860 do is they
01:00:41.900 get the
01:00:42.380 teachers good
01:00:43.700 representation and
01:00:45.960 they do that
01:00:46.400 very well because
01:00:47.440 the teachers have
01:00:48.160 really good
01:00:48.840 representation.
01:00:49.660 It's a strong
01:00:50.180 union.
01:00:50.920 But part of
01:00:51.360 the reason that
01:00:51.920 they do that
01:00:52.680 or that they
01:00:54.340 can do it is
01:00:54.880 that they're
01:00:55.140 buying
01:00:55.420 politicians.
01:00:56.940 They can
01:00:57.320 fund a
01:00:58.480 campaign at
01:00:59.640 the local
01:01:00.080 level and
01:01:00.980 pretty much
01:01:01.400 get whoever
01:01:01.940 they want
01:01:02.480 elected, which
01:01:03.160 is Democrats
01:01:03.780 because they
01:01:04.480 have so much
01:01:04.920 money.
01:01:05.960 And then once
01:01:06.440 elected, they
01:01:07.300 basically own
01:01:08.180 that politician
01:01:09.000 because the
01:01:10.460 politician needs
01:01:11.200 continued support
01:01:12.280 or they can't
01:01:12.880 get reelected.
01:01:14.240 So the
01:01:14.640 teachers unions
01:01:16.820 are rich enough
01:01:18.940 that they can
01:01:19.900 control local
01:01:20.820 politics, which
01:01:22.680 allows them to
01:01:23.340 control basically
01:01:24.620 way too
01:01:25.140 much.
01:01:26.200 And it
01:01:26.840 also, they
01:01:27.540 can control
01:01:28.360 so much
01:01:29.480 politically.
01:01:31.200 Seriously, how
01:01:33.000 is there still a
01:01:33.740 leaf blower
01:01:34.200 outside my
01:01:35.100 window?
01:01:36.420 I'm going to
01:01:37.460 lose it in a
01:01:38.460 minute here.
01:01:39.100 I mean, I'm
01:01:39.480 just going to
01:01:39.880 lose it.
01:01:41.520 You can't blow
01:01:42.780 that many leaves
01:01:43.800 in a 10-foot
01:01:44.900 square area.
01:01:45.920 It's just not
01:01:46.700 possible.
01:01:47.840 All right,
01:01:48.420 enough of that.
01:01:49.060 I don't even
01:01:52.480 know what I
01:01:52.740 was talking
01:01:53.120 about.
01:01:53.400 I'm so angry
01:01:53.960 now about the
01:01:55.540 classrooms and
01:01:56.300 the teachers
01:01:56.960 unions.
01:01:58.220 So that's how
01:01:58.900 the teachers
01:01:59.300 unions do what
01:02:01.000 they're doing,
01:02:01.500 which is destroying
01:02:02.280 the lives of
01:02:03.080 families and
01:02:04.220 perpetuating
01:02:05.260 systemic racism
01:02:06.220 because they're
01:02:07.400 so powerful that
01:02:08.280 they can get rid
01:02:09.000 of their own
01:02:09.680 competition.
01:02:10.800 They can even
01:02:11.480 make it impossible
01:02:12.280 to have a charter
01:02:13.080 school or a
01:02:13.960 private school
01:02:14.600 because they
01:02:15.600 control the
01:02:16.500 politicians and
01:02:17.400 the politicians
01:02:17.980 control whether
01:02:19.440 there's competition
01:02:20.340 for schools.
01:02:21.540 It's the worst
01:02:22.200 system you could
01:02:22.840 ever imagine.
01:02:24.500 Do you know
01:02:24.960 who designed
01:02:25.520 that system and
01:02:26.720 who's in favor
01:02:27.340 of that?
01:02:28.280 Democrats.
01:02:29.360 Because as I've
01:02:29.940 told you, their
01:02:30.540 empathy is excellent.
01:02:32.640 Excellent empathy.
01:02:34.300 Caring, first
01:02:36.040 rate.
01:02:37.480 If you want
01:02:38.720 somebody to just
01:02:39.380 care about
01:02:39.960 something, call
01:02:41.460 a Democrat.
01:02:42.420 They are pretty
01:02:43.120 good at that.
01:02:43.940 I give it to
01:02:44.440 them.
01:02:45.560 But they also
01:02:47.580 have too much
01:02:48.140 power and
01:02:48.740 they've designed
01:02:49.240 a system that
01:02:50.380 doesn't take
01:02:52.840 into account
01:02:53.440 human motivation.
01:02:55.700 The human
01:02:56.380 motivation of
01:02:57.300 the teachers
01:02:57.760 union is to
01:02:58.580 protect itself.
01:03:00.360 Is that a
01:03:00.940 high goal?
01:03:01.800 No, it's
01:03:03.120 not.
01:03:04.440 But Republicans
01:03:05.720 would design
01:03:06.780 systems that
01:03:07.600 understand that
01:03:08.920 people have
01:03:09.480 motivations and
01:03:10.740 incentives and
01:03:12.380 if you create a
01:03:13.340 teachers union and
01:03:14.320 you give them
01:03:14.860 that much
01:03:15.320 money, they're
01:03:16.600 going to want to
01:03:17.040 stay in power,
01:03:17.860 they're going to
01:03:18.500 want to keep
01:03:18.920 their money, and
01:03:20.100 they're not going
01:03:20.700 to do things that
01:03:21.420 are good for the
01:03:22.060 public, they're
01:03:23.180 going to do
01:03:23.600 things that are
01:03:24.200 good for the
01:03:24.660 teachers and the
01:03:25.460 teachers unions.
01:03:26.660 It's a bad
01:03:27.260 system.
01:03:28.380 So one way
01:03:29.200 around that
01:03:29.680 system would be
01:03:30.560 money, I don't
01:03:31.820 think you could do
01:03:32.460 this necessarily
01:03:33.200 with an executive
01:03:33.980 order, but who
01:03:35.300 knows what you
01:03:35.900 can do with an
01:03:36.440 executive order
01:03:37.080 these days.
01:03:38.280 And that is,
01:03:40.900 seriously, there's
01:03:42.460 still a leaf blower
01:03:43.200 out there.
01:03:44.360 It's been over an
01:03:45.640 hour.
01:03:47.320 For one hour, that
01:03:48.740 leaf blower has been
01:03:49.540 directly below my
01:03:50.480 window.
01:03:50.840 An hour.
01:03:52.020 How is that even
01:03:52.680 possible?
01:03:53.120 And if I go
01:03:55.740 outside with the
01:03:56.580 camera to show
01:03:57.280 you, you'll see
01:03:58.260 him right below
01:03:58.900 there, blowing
01:03:59.820 leaves for another
01:04:00.780 half hour.
01:04:01.940 I don't know
01:04:02.400 what's going on
01:04:02.920 there.
01:04:03.880 I can't even talk
01:04:04.660 about this anymore.
01:04:05.480 I'm so mad.
01:04:06.480 All right.
01:04:09.560 Yeah, I can't
01:04:10.760 even go on
01:04:11.880 anymore.
01:04:12.360 I've done enough.
01:04:13.320 We'll talk about
01:04:13.840 this other stuff
01:04:14.380 later, and I will
01:04:15.100 talk to you
01:04:15.640 tomorrow.
01:04:17.940 Oh, hold on.
01:04:19.520 Did he just
01:04:20.100 stop?
01:04:21.780 Oh my God, that
01:04:22.840 just happened,
01:04:23.500 didn't it?
01:04:24.240 The moment I
01:04:24.920 touched my screen
01:04:25.740 to end this
01:04:26.340 periscope, at
01:04:28.400 exactly that
01:04:29.240 moment, the
01:04:30.380 leaf blower
01:04:30.840 stopped.
01:04:32.360 That really
01:04:33.020 happened.
01:04:34.840 All right.
01:04:36.040 Well, let me
01:04:36.540 say what I was
01:04:37.000 going to say.
01:04:38.260 I will go on.
01:04:39.260 I can actually
01:04:39.860 think now.
01:04:40.860 It is really
01:04:41.420 hard to think
01:04:41.960 when that's
01:04:42.280 going on.
01:04:44.900 So we should
01:04:46.780 have cameras in
01:04:47.500 the classrooms.
01:04:48.680 If an executive
01:04:49.600 order can do
01:04:50.380 that, that'd be
01:04:51.000 great.
01:04:51.380 I doubt it
01:04:51.860 can.
01:04:52.080 But I
01:04:53.180 imagine the
01:04:53.800 schools would
01:04:54.660 have some
01:04:55.000 control over
01:04:55.600 that.
01:04:56.040 There might
01:04:56.260 be some
01:04:56.560 privacy issues.
01:04:57.800 But unless
01:04:58.280 the parents
01:04:59.080 can directly
01:05:00.260 see what's
01:05:00.860 happening in
01:05:01.400 the schools,
01:05:02.000 it's not
01:05:02.320 going to
01:05:02.520 change.
01:05:03.600 So if we
01:05:04.620 could have
01:05:05.120 body cams
01:05:06.220 on police,
01:05:07.900 why can't
01:05:08.360 we have a
01:05:09.120 body cam,
01:05:10.280 so to speak,
01:05:11.060 in a classroom?
01:05:12.180 Not on a
01:05:12.660 teacher, but
01:05:13.180 just in the
01:05:13.620 classroom.
01:05:14.620 There might
01:05:15.160 be some
01:05:15.460 privacy issues.
01:05:16.760 But if
01:05:17.160 there's something
01:05:17.620 happening in
01:05:18.240 that classroom
01:05:18.840 that you
01:05:19.480 don't want
01:05:19.980 parents to
01:05:20.820 see, isn't
01:05:22.500 that a
01:05:22.760 problem?
01:05:23.840 I feel like
01:05:24.680 the parents
01:05:25.100 need to have
01:05:25.580 control of
01:05:26.120 that, and
01:05:26.580 that would
01:05:26.840 be a
01:05:27.620 better system.
01:05:28.820 Now, would
01:05:30.700 you get too
01:05:31.240 many complaining
01:05:32.460 parents?
01:05:33.280 Probably, but
01:05:34.300 it's a better
01:05:34.700 system than
01:05:35.280 what we
01:05:35.620 have.
01:05:39.900 Rasmussen is
01:05:40.720 teasing that
01:05:41.660 something happened
01:05:42.740 with the
01:05:43.820 president's
01:05:44.500 approval.
01:05:45.040 approval.
01:05:45.860 Apparently,
01:05:46.600 overnight, the
01:05:47.420 president's job
01:05:48.400 approval jumped
01:05:49.280 up sharply.
01:05:51.220 He got way
01:05:51.940 more approval
01:05:52.660 overnight.
01:05:54.060 Is there
01:05:54.380 anything that's
01:05:55.240 been happening,
01:05:56.700 let's say,
01:05:58.020 the last, I
01:05:59.240 don't know,
01:06:00.320 day or two
01:06:02.240 days, is there
01:06:03.180 anything happening
01:06:05.360 politically that
01:06:07.360 would make the
01:06:07.880 president's approval
01:06:08.860 go up?
01:06:10.720 Could it be the
01:06:11.880 Democrat
01:06:12.300 convention?
01:06:13.980 Because it's
01:06:14.420 sort of the
01:06:14.840 only thing
01:06:15.220 that's
01:06:15.420 happening,
01:06:15.980 that isn't
01:06:17.320 just a
01:06:17.700 continuation of
01:06:18.520 things that
01:06:18.860 have been
01:06:19.060 happening?
01:06:20.080 Kind of
01:06:20.600 feels like
01:06:23.740 that.
01:06:26.640 All right.
01:06:29.560 In normal
01:06:30.380 years, I would
01:06:31.160 say the fake
01:06:31.680 news is a
01:06:32.800 good term for
01:06:33.340 the fake
01:06:33.680 news, but in
01:06:34.520 an election
01:06:35.660 year, this is
01:06:36.880 just disinformation,
01:06:38.180 wouldn't you
01:06:38.480 say?
01:06:39.280 It feels to me
01:06:40.320 like the news
01:06:40.980 is just a
01:06:41.580 disinformation
01:06:42.160 operation now.
01:06:44.060 It's
01:06:44.760 definitely
01:06:45.240 worse than
01:06:45.700 it was
01:06:45.960 even during
01:06:46.380 the, well,
01:06:47.740 I don't
01:06:47.920 know if
01:06:48.080 it's
01:06:48.200 worse.
01:06:49.520 But watching
01:06:50.060 Chris Cuomo
01:06:50.760 trying to
01:06:51.420 spin the
01:06:51.880 Russia collusion
01:06:52.740 as if it
01:06:53.820 sort of,
01:06:54.320 sort of,
01:06:54.940 kind of,
01:06:55.320 in a way
01:06:55.820 actually
01:06:56.240 happened,
01:06:57.680 but didn't
01:06:58.260 technically
01:06:58.820 happen, but
01:06:59.380 in a sort of
01:07:00.000 kind of way
01:07:00.560 that you can
01:07:01.020 talk about
01:07:01.560 it, maybe
01:07:02.520 it did
01:07:02.800 happen.
01:07:03.120 And that
01:07:04.180 the idea
01:07:05.000 that there
01:07:05.400 was some
01:07:05.920 kind of
01:07:06.380 a conspiracy
01:07:07.580 and that
01:07:08.260 Obama was
01:07:09.300 involved is
01:07:10.940 just crazy
01:07:11.760 talk, because
01:07:13.240 Obama wasn't
01:07:14.320 involved with
01:07:15.040 the FISA.
01:07:16.900 That was
01:07:17.460 actually a
01:07:17.920 reason that
01:07:18.340 Chris Cuomo
01:07:19.240 gave, that
01:07:20.500 since Obama
01:07:21.180 wasn't involved
01:07:22.260 with the
01:07:22.880 FISA process,
01:07:24.680 therefore,
01:07:25.840 logically, he
01:07:26.820 wasn't, he
01:07:28.500 didn't know
01:07:28.860 what was going
01:07:29.340 on.
01:07:29.720 It doesn't
01:07:30.860 make any
01:07:31.240 sense.
01:07:32.300 Then he
01:07:32.700 complains
01:07:33.180 bitterly that
01:07:34.040 the campaign
01:07:34.700 was not
01:07:35.180 spied on.
01:07:36.700 What?
01:07:37.480 It wasn't
01:07:38.300 spied on.
01:07:39.460 It was
01:07:39.940 definitely
01:07:40.220 spied on.
01:07:41.540 That we
01:07:41.980 don't have
01:07:42.300 to wonder
01:07:42.800 about.
01:07:43.820 But they
01:07:44.120 use the
01:07:44.460 word spied.
01:07:45.860 Well, the
01:07:46.960 definition of
01:07:47.620 the word
01:07:47.920 spied may
01:07:49.460 apply to a
01:07:50.220 slightly different
01:07:50.840 situation.
01:07:52.020 We know
01:07:52.460 that.
01:07:53.260 We know
01:07:53.860 that the
01:07:54.240 word spied
01:07:55.500 has a more
01:07:57.140 specific meaning.
01:07:58.580 You're not
01:07:59.120 really answering
01:07:59.860 the question.
01:08:01.080 If they
01:08:01.540 intentionally
01:08:02.180 surveilled the
01:08:04.100 president's
01:08:04.760 people, which
01:08:06.160 is obviously
01:08:06.720 what happened,
01:08:08.000 that was
01:08:09.840 spying.
01:08:10.460 You can try
01:08:10.960 to put a
01:08:11.300 different word
01:08:11.920 on it, but
01:08:12.460 that's not
01:08:12.760 going to
01:08:12.940 change anything.
01:08:14.560 All right.
01:08:17.340 The president
01:08:18.200 also signaled
01:08:19.680 that boycotts
01:08:22.160 are going to
01:08:22.460 work both
01:08:22.880 ways from
01:08:23.340 now on.
01:08:24.380 And he
01:08:24.740 actually called
01:08:25.500 for a boycott
01:08:26.200 on Goodyear
01:08:26.840 tires.
01:08:27.760 Now, I don't
01:08:28.220 know if that
01:08:28.680 was a good
01:08:29.120 idea or a
01:08:29.700 bad idea.
01:08:30.640 Because it
01:08:31.160 turns out that
01:08:31.720 Goodyear has
01:08:32.260 60,000 employees.
01:08:34.400 And if you
01:08:34.840 are any of
01:08:35.300 those 60,000
01:08:36.180 employees and
01:08:36.900 you just found
01:08:37.440 out that the
01:08:37.960 president targeted
01:08:39.640 your company for
01:08:40.480 destruction, you
01:08:43.060 might not want to
01:08:43.940 vote Republican
01:08:44.800 this time around.
01:08:46.560 So I'm not
01:08:47.840 positive that
01:08:49.440 going after a
01:08:50.380 company with
01:08:50.960 that many
01:08:51.340 employees, I'm
01:08:52.680 not positive
01:08:53.420 that was a
01:08:53.900 good play.
01:08:55.360 But here's
01:08:56.840 what I love
01:08:57.300 about it.
01:08:57.880 And again,
01:08:58.960 there are
01:08:59.500 times when you
01:09:00.160 fall in love
01:09:01.180 with Trump.
01:09:01.780 You don't
01:09:02.020 just like what
01:09:02.640 he did.
01:09:03.780 And here's
01:09:04.440 what I do
01:09:04.880 like about
01:09:05.400 this.
01:09:06.520 The problem
01:09:07.420 of these
01:09:08.000 boycotts,
01:09:08.800 in other
01:09:09.120 words, people
01:09:09.580 being canceled,
01:09:10.520 losing their
01:09:10.960 job for a
01:09:11.580 political opinion,
01:09:13.020 et cetera,
01:09:14.160 is so big
01:09:15.540 that the
01:09:16.520 president basically
01:09:17.440 said he would
01:09:18.140 put an
01:09:18.520 American company
01:09:19.400 out of business
01:09:20.120 for doing it.
01:09:21.800 Think about
01:09:22.360 that.
01:09:23.240 The president
01:09:24.020 of the United
01:09:24.420 States has
01:09:26.000 identified this
01:09:27.160 problem as big
01:09:28.220 enough that he
01:09:29.860 would put a
01:09:31.220 huge American
01:09:32.060 company right
01:09:32.800 out of business.
01:09:33.560 He's the
01:09:34.060 jobs president
01:09:34.900 and he would
01:09:36.000 put this damn
01:09:36.860 company right
01:09:37.640 out of business
01:09:38.240 for just that.
01:09:40.580 Do you hate
01:09:41.460 that?
01:09:43.560 I don't know
01:09:44.440 if it gets
01:09:44.880 them elected.
01:09:46.000 I just don't
01:09:47.000 know if it's
01:09:47.520 wise politically.
01:09:49.500 But you kind
01:09:50.340 of like it,
01:09:50.900 don't you?
01:09:51.220 You kind
01:09:52.320 of like it
01:09:52.820 if you don't
01:09:53.220 work for a
01:09:53.700 Goodyear,
01:09:54.080 of course.
01:09:54.820 It would be
01:09:55.340 pretty bad
01:09:55.800 over there.
01:09:56.900 But if you
01:09:57.300 see that he's
01:09:57.940 willing to
01:09:58.420 actually bankrupt,
01:09:59.580 and I don't
01:09:59.880 think this will
01:10:00.520 happen, by the
01:10:01.040 way.
01:10:01.260 I doubt there
01:10:01.740 will be much
01:10:02.140 difference in
01:10:02.760 Goodyear's
01:10:03.140 business.
01:10:04.120 But he
01:10:05.120 showed a
01:10:05.620 clear willingness
01:10:06.300 to bankrupt
01:10:07.320 a major
01:10:07.980 American company
01:10:08.900 over this.
01:10:10.920 Are you okay
01:10:11.500 with that?
01:10:13.100 You kind
01:10:13.600 of are,
01:10:14.100 aren't you?
01:10:14.940 You kind
01:10:15.480 of are.
01:10:16.260 Because this
01:10:16.980 cancel culture
01:10:17.820 would destroy
01:10:18.740 the country.
01:10:19.320 and he just
01:10:21.320 dropped the
01:10:21.920 gauntlet.
01:10:22.520 He said,
01:10:23.240 I'll tell you
01:10:23.920 what, if you
01:10:24.920 want to play
01:10:25.460 this game, it's
01:10:26.880 not going to be
01:10:27.440 one-sided.
01:10:28.620 You're not going
01:10:29.260 to be the only
01:10:29.780 one playing, and
01:10:31.060 let me show you
01:10:31.940 by putting on
01:10:33.840 the line an
01:10:34.700 entire American
01:10:35.720 company, an
01:10:36.440 entire, ha,
01:10:37.180 pun.
01:10:37.360 I kind
01:10:40.500 of liked it, even
01:10:42.940 though I don't
01:10:43.660 know if that
01:10:44.080 helps him get
01:10:44.560 elected, but I
01:10:45.220 kind of like he
01:10:46.140 would bankrupt a
01:10:47.040 major American
01:10:47.760 company over
01:10:49.100 this.
01:10:49.980 Because that
01:10:50.400 feels like he
01:10:50.980 has your back a
01:10:51.700 little bit, right?
01:10:52.660 If you've been
01:10:53.460 canceled, if you're
01:10:56.800 afraid to talk up
01:10:57.720 at work and have
01:10:58.480 an opinion, it
01:10:59.640 feels like he's
01:11:00.280 got your back a
01:11:01.020 little bit now,
01:11:01.600 doesn't it?
01:11:02.700 Yeah, and you're
01:11:03.600 looking at the
01:11:04.080 comments, people
01:11:04.700 are saying they
01:11:05.180 love it.
01:11:05.540 Now, I don't
01:11:06.560 want anything bad
01:11:07.280 to happen to
01:11:07.780 Goodyear, and I
01:11:08.580 think the details
01:11:09.380 of what they did
01:11:10.320 is a little murky.
01:11:11.840 I think they were
01:11:12.440 trying to be
01:11:13.000 inclusive and not
01:11:14.220 political.
01:11:15.300 They just sort of
01:11:16.060 misfired a little
01:11:16.800 bit on the
01:11:17.300 messaging.
01:11:18.420 So, you know, I
01:11:20.100 don't know that
01:11:20.620 Goodyear is worth
01:11:21.420 boycotting, but I
01:11:22.820 do like the fact
01:11:23.600 that the president
01:11:24.320 was willing to
01:11:25.240 actually execute a
01:11:27.080 major American
01:11:27.980 company over this.
01:11:30.620 That's how
01:11:31.180 important it was,
01:11:31.860 over this.
01:11:33.120 He was willing to
01:11:33.820 execute them.
01:11:35.540 Totally on board
01:11:36.400 with the attitude,
01:11:37.620 but maybe not
01:11:38.380 Goodyear.
01:11:41.680 Here's a little
01:11:42.340 red pill for you
01:11:43.220 that might get me
01:11:45.180 assassinated.
01:11:46.940 I said in the
01:11:47.840 long run that all
01:11:48.680 governments will be
01:11:49.660 controlled by their
01:11:50.560 own intelligence
01:11:51.340 services, but that
01:11:53.460 if Trump wins, we
01:11:54.720 can stall that a
01:11:57.320 little bit, because
01:11:58.100 Trump is not.
01:12:00.740 But you can't hold
01:12:01.720 it off indefinitely.
01:12:02.480 And here's the
01:12:04.100 thinking.
01:12:05.700 The intelligence
01:12:06.600 operation of any
01:12:08.740 country will
01:12:10.340 eventually have
01:12:11.360 control of the
01:12:12.300 leaders and the
01:12:13.260 country, because
01:12:14.160 that's what they
01:12:14.640 do.
01:12:15.680 That's their skill
01:12:17.040 set.
01:12:18.080 And while they
01:12:19.120 might not succeed
01:12:20.160 in any given
01:12:21.340 year, so maybe
01:12:23.400 1989, maybe
01:12:25.700 nobody was trying
01:12:27.540 to take over the
01:12:28.360 government or get
01:12:29.160 control, but if you
01:12:30.860 wait long enough
01:12:31.720 and you have
01:12:32.300 enough different
01:12:33.040 people who cycle
01:12:34.020 through the
01:12:34.620 intelligence agencies,
01:12:36.440 somebody's going to
01:12:37.480 make a play for
01:12:39.320 controlling the
01:12:40.080 country.
01:12:40.620 They'll have an
01:12:41.200 argument where it's
01:12:42.020 good for the
01:12:42.480 country or not, but
01:12:44.900 somebody's going to
01:12:45.560 make a play.
01:12:46.960 Let's say nine
01:12:47.800 out of ten times
01:12:48.700 they fail.
01:12:50.280 They only have to
01:12:51.260 succeed once, and
01:12:53.140 then they own the
01:12:53.720 country.
01:12:54.340 You could argue
01:12:55.160 that J. Edgar
01:12:55.860 Hoover succeeded that
01:12:57.620 way.
01:12:57.960 He had enough
01:12:58.500 blackmail, I guess,
01:12:59.540 on different
01:13:00.500 politicians that
01:13:01.380 effectively, if it
01:13:02.940 was an issue that
01:13:03.900 Hoover cared about,
01:13:06.460 he controlled it.
01:13:07.800 So in effect,
01:13:08.560 Hoover kind of ran
01:13:09.340 the country but only
01:13:10.240 cared about certain
01:13:11.060 things, so it
01:13:12.120 didn't matter so
01:13:12.800 much.
01:13:13.820 What if they start
01:13:14.600 caring about more
01:13:15.460 stuff?
01:13:17.120 So in the long
01:13:18.320 run, the only way
01:13:19.460 it can go, because
01:13:20.320 the math is
01:13:21.400 inevitable, if you've
01:13:22.740 got an agency that
01:13:23.920 has the talent to
01:13:25.120 take over a country,
01:13:26.080 that's what they do.
01:13:27.380 That's what they do.
01:13:28.040 And you give them
01:13:29.440 infinite time to
01:13:30.520 try it.
01:13:31.380 Well, it didn't
01:13:31.940 happen in the
01:13:32.520 60s.
01:13:33.140 Well, it didn't
01:13:34.040 happen in the
01:13:34.580 70s.
01:13:35.540 Yeah, they tried, but
01:13:37.140 it didn't happen in
01:13:37.760 the 80s.
01:13:38.700 The 90s, took a run
01:13:40.220 at it, didn't work.
01:13:41.960 It's not going to
01:13:42.920 not work forever.
01:13:44.800 And also, you
01:13:45.720 wouldn't know if it
01:13:46.400 already worked.
01:13:47.580 Now, if you're
01:13:48.560 Russia, and you've
01:13:49.920 got Putin as the
01:13:51.020 head of your
01:13:51.420 country, you could
01:13:52.280 say, well, it
01:13:53.320 looks like it
01:13:53.720 worked in that
01:13:54.200 case.
01:13:54.540 You don't
01:13:55.660 think that his
01:13:56.260 KGB stuff helped
01:13:57.680 him become the
01:13:58.340 leader?
01:13:58.760 Of course it
01:13:59.240 did.
01:13:59.880 Is it a coincidence
01:14:00.640 that George Bush
01:14:01.640 Sr. was the head
01:14:03.480 of the CIA and
01:14:04.840 then became
01:14:05.300 president?
01:14:06.940 Maybe it's a
01:14:07.800 coincidence.
01:14:09.100 Maybe.
01:14:10.260 So, the question
01:14:11.660 you have to ask
01:14:12.260 yourself is, since
01:14:13.940 it's a guarantee,
01:14:15.140 just mathematically,
01:14:17.140 risk management,
01:14:19.080 it's a guarantee
01:14:19.780 that intelligence
01:14:20.520 agencies eventually
01:14:21.820 control every country
01:14:22.980 they're in, has
01:14:24.560 it happened yet?
01:14:26.600 Has it?
01:14:28.220 You don't know.
01:14:29.500 And you wouldn't
01:14:30.100 know.
01:14:30.860 But one of the
01:14:31.400 things you'd look
01:14:32.000 for is that the
01:14:33.220 media, the messaging
01:14:34.760 coming out of the
01:14:35.620 news, would be fake
01:14:37.820 in a certain way.
01:14:39.660 And it is.
01:14:41.080 So, if you look at
01:14:42.040 the news, it looks
01:14:42.900 like it's just coming
01:14:43.840 out of intelligence
01:14:45.000 agencies.
01:14:46.020 Because now it's
01:14:47.020 just disinformation.
01:14:49.100 It's no longer
01:14:50.180 this harmless little
01:14:51.460 fake news where
01:14:52.460 they're picking
01:14:52.880 aside and they
01:14:54.220 know who their
01:14:54.780 audience is and
01:14:55.600 all that.
01:14:56.320 It's way beyond
01:14:56.960 that.
01:14:57.820 Now the CNNs and
01:14:59.580 the New York
01:15:00.180 Times are directly
01:15:01.680 trying to run the
01:15:02.940 country through the
01:15:04.600 way they cover the
01:15:05.320 news.
01:15:06.360 Who does that tell
01:15:07.400 you is in charge?
01:15:10.240 Is it the fake
01:15:11.200 news making their
01:15:12.020 own decisions?
01:15:13.140 That they've all
01:15:13.760 decided to cover
01:15:14.500 things a certain
01:15:15.120 way?
01:15:15.740 Maybe.
01:15:16.700 Could be.
01:15:17.560 Could be that.
01:15:18.920 But it suggests
01:15:20.300 that intelligence
01:15:21.140 services are already
01:15:22.800 controlling at least
01:15:23.780 the news.
01:15:25.280 So, President
01:15:26.260 Trump, I believe, is
01:15:27.460 free of that
01:15:28.060 influence.
01:15:29.060 But that's the
01:15:29.940 thing he has to
01:15:30.480 beat.
01:15:30.800 So, he's fighting
01:15:31.580 the fake news and
01:15:32.740 the fake news may
01:15:35.140 or may not already be
01:15:36.280 controlled by
01:15:36.840 intelligence agencies.
01:15:38.600 Now, if you
01:15:39.240 follow, say, Glenn
01:15:41.860 Greenwald and a lot
01:15:42.900 of other people, they
01:15:44.080 will tell you that
01:15:44.780 NBC, and therefore I
01:15:46.840 suppose MSNBC, are
01:15:49.720 just direct organs of
01:15:51.020 the CIA, and that
01:15:53.280 they basically are
01:15:54.140 just CIA cutouts.
01:15:57.200 I don't know what a
01:15:57.920 cutout is.
01:15:58.540 I shouldn't use
01:15:59.080 official words when I
01:16:00.700 don't know what they
01:16:01.140 mean.
01:16:02.960 But the question is,
01:16:04.760 how many of the
01:16:05.780 other organizations are
01:16:06.900 in the same situation?
01:16:08.060 All right, that's all I
01:16:08.900 wanted to talk about
01:16:09.500 today, and I will talk
01:16:10.860 to you later.
01:16:12.700 Thank you.
