Real Coffee with Scott Adams - Episode 1132 Scott Adams： Scalia's Last Words Discovered, Iran Gets Flexible Maybe, Coronavirus Surprises, Biden HOAXES

00:00:00.020 Hey everybody. Come on in and gather round.

00:00:15.240 It's going to be a good one. It's going to be lit.

00:00:17.980 It's going to be off the hook. It's going to be crazy.

00:00:21.540 Yes, that's how good it's going to be, just like always.

00:00:24.460 It's called Coffee with Scott Adams and it features the simultaneous sip.

00:00:28.680 I know that's why you're here.

00:00:30.560 Those of you who are scurrying to get your cup and your mug ready,

00:00:34.520 fill it with your favorite beverage.

00:00:37.160 All you need really is a cup or a mug or a glass of tank or chalice or stein,

00:00:40.840 a canteen jug or flask, a vessel of any kind.

00:00:44.960 Fill it with your favorite liquid.

00:00:46.920 I like coffee.

00:00:48.540 And join me now for the dopamine hit of the day,

00:00:52.340 the thing that makes everything better.

00:00:55.440 It's called the simultaneous sip and it happens right now.

00:00:59.580 Go.

00:01:03.520 Ooh, one of the best.

00:01:06.920 Dare I say, the best.

00:01:10.320 Well, the simulation is not disappointing us today.

00:01:13.840 It's giving us news that's fun.

00:01:15.900 That's right.

00:01:17.040 It's not just news.

00:01:19.740 When I was a kid, when I would watch the news,

00:01:24.280 it would be all about death and war and people dying.

00:01:31.300 And somewhere along the lines, that changed.

00:01:35.320 Remember, they used to say, if it bleeds, it leads.

00:01:38.700 And now that's sort of changed to, if it misleads, it leads.

00:01:43.340 Because the news stopped being about violence for the most part.

00:01:47.460 I mean, if there's a big mass event, they're going to cover it, of course.

00:01:51.620 But for the most part, the news has turned from a whole bunch of violence

00:01:56.580 to a little bit of violence, but mostly just crazy political stuff

00:02:00.720 and hoaxes and stuff like that.

00:02:05.360 So here's my favorite news story of the day that shouldn't even be news.

00:02:10.320 This is in the category of things that you shouldn't even care about.

00:02:14.100 The New York Post ran this headline, and this is the exact wording of the headline.

00:02:22.260 Robert Kraft likely to get off in Florida massage parlor case.

00:02:29.280 Yeah, he's likely to get off.

00:02:33.060 I'm not even going to add anything to that.

00:02:35.760 That's it.

00:02:36.300 Do you know author Naomi Wolf?

00:02:42.420 Naomi Wolf was tweeting this morning that she was not happy with the fact

00:02:50.520 that the U.K. was going to have, they were considering a $50 fine

00:02:56.900 for not wearing a mask.

00:02:59.060 And she thought that was unreasonable because you should never have a situation

00:03:04.100 where you're penalized for what you wear or don't wear in this case, right?

00:03:11.700 Completely, it's completely over the line to have your government penalizing you,

00:03:17.760 financially penalizing you for what you wear.

00:03:20.920 That's ridiculous.

00:03:22.440 Or in this case, for what you don't wear.

00:03:24.380 I commented back, I feel the same way about pants.

00:03:31.180 Because I don't know if you've ever tried to go out in public without wearing pants.

00:03:36.880 But you'll get fined or arrested.

00:03:41.080 I'm not sure exactly what the penalty is.

00:03:43.260 But I'm pretty sure the current situation is you can't wear anything you want.

00:03:47.220 So, she removed that tweet within a few minutes of my comment.

00:03:55.020 I don't know if it was my comment, but if you said something as dumb as that in public,

00:03:59.960 that the government can't determine what you wear,

00:04:03.020 and then somebody says, yeah, I feel the same way about pants,

00:04:06.140 you're probably going to delete your tweet pretty quickly.

00:04:09.200 I don't know if it was because of my comment.

00:04:11.140 Probably other people said the same thing.

00:04:12.740 Now, I know this will seem weird to you,

00:04:17.760 but we've been hearing a lot about Justice Ginsburg's final request,

00:04:25.900 her final words before she passed.

00:04:30.000 And people said, you know,

00:04:33.860 usually you don't put a lot of credence in somebody's final words,

00:04:38.520 but because she was a Supreme Court justice,

00:04:40.720 maybe, in this case, we should ignore the Constitution of the United States

00:04:45.660 and focus on the importance of her last words.

00:04:50.240 And I thought to myself, well, maybe that's something we could extend a little bit.

00:04:54.480 I mean, that's such a good idea,

00:04:56.020 to ignore the Constitution and just look at somebody's deathbed words,

00:05:00.740 that I thought we should maybe do more of that.

00:05:03.200 Now, as luck would have it,

00:05:05.360 I went to my researchers,

00:05:07.660 and I have here the actual last words of Justice Scalia.

00:05:14.920 Now, I didn't get much attention,

00:05:17.080 because I don't know why,

00:05:19.020 it's just the way the news covers stuff,

00:05:20.540 but I do have Justice Scalia's final words.

00:05:25.260 I'll read them to you.

00:05:26.180 Oh, well, okay,

00:05:31.560 it's maybe not as newsworthy as I thought it would be.

00:05:35.340 It turns out it's an off-color joke.

00:05:38.720 Those were his final words.

00:05:40.080 Do you want to hear it?

00:05:41.480 It's a very off-color joke.

00:05:43.480 So put the kids,

00:05:45.120 put the kids wherever they are,

00:05:47.580 back to sleep,

00:05:48.340 or send them off to school or something.

00:05:51.340 Don't let any children hear this.

00:05:53.680 You ready?

00:05:54.280 You've been warned.

00:05:56.340 This is Justice Scalia's final words.

00:06:00.140 I said, let's see,

00:06:02.860 what did the leper say to the prostitute?

00:06:08.380 Keep the tip.

00:06:11.680 Okay, well, I'm glad he left that with us.

00:06:14.820 But let's take that into consideration

00:06:17.320 when we're making public policy.

00:06:20.300 The CIA came up with an assessment

00:06:23.500 and listen to this.

00:06:26.160 This is from the CIA.

00:06:28.320 And it's a good thing

00:06:29.680 we've got the CIA to protect us

00:06:31.580 because this is exactly

00:06:33.360 the kind of assessment

00:06:34.460 that keeps us safe.

00:06:37.500 If we didn't have a CIA,

00:06:40.400 how do we know this stuff?

00:06:43.780 Okay, so here's a new report

00:06:46.240 from the CIA, quote,

00:06:48.080 We assess that President Vladimir Putin

00:06:51.240 and the senior-most Russian officials

00:06:53.160 are aware of

00:06:54.640 and probably,

00:06:57.740 probably,

00:06:59.680 they don't know for sure,

00:07:00.900 but probably,

00:07:02.480 directing Russia's influence operation

00:07:04.880 aimed at denigrating

00:07:05.960 the former U.S. Vice President,

00:07:08.220 I guess that would be Biden,

00:07:09.780 supporting the U.S. President,

00:07:11.660 Trump,

00:07:12.460 and fueling public discord.

00:07:14.120 You know,

00:07:16.200 I came to that same conclusion

00:07:19.060 as the CIA,

00:07:21.020 except the method that I used

00:07:23.820 to come to that conclusion was

00:07:25.580 I sat in my house

00:07:27.600 and I thought about it.

00:07:29.460 Huh.

00:07:29.860 I wonder,

00:07:32.020 I wonder what Vladimir Putin

00:07:34.500 is doing and thinking right now.

00:07:37.300 Came to the same conclusion.

00:07:39.640 So,

00:07:40.440 you don't really need a CIA

00:07:42.300 if you could just

00:07:44.060 sit in your house

00:07:45.300 and think of stuff

00:07:46.140 because the CIA didn't say

00:07:48.220 it's definitely happening.

00:07:50.180 That would have been different

00:07:51.120 because I couldn't have done that.

00:07:53.500 Something I couldn't do

00:07:54.660 is tell you what Vladimir Putin

00:07:56.680 is definitely doing.

00:07:58.040 I don't have that kind of skill.

00:08:01.400 But,

00:08:01.740 as they worded it,

00:08:03.440 they say he's probably,

00:08:05.400 he's probably aware

00:08:06.800 of directing things.

00:08:08.520 That's something I could have done.

00:08:10.800 And,

00:08:11.200 in fact,

00:08:11.560 I did.

00:08:12.460 In my house,

00:08:13.800 with no help whatsoever,

00:08:15.440 I sat there and I thought,

00:08:17.540 I think he's probably

00:08:19.860 aware of it and,

00:08:21.940 I don't know,

00:08:23.100 probably directing it

00:08:24.540 a little bit,

00:08:25.340 maybe,

00:08:25.600 or if not him,

00:08:27.100 his senior people,

00:08:29.020 something like that.

00:08:30.420 So,

00:08:30.900 there you have it.

00:08:31.840 That's my valuable

00:08:32.720 intelligence offering.

00:08:36.500 I've been asking,

00:08:37.620 as you know,

00:08:38.960 somebody,

00:08:39.740 for somebody to explain

00:08:40.900 to me how it is

00:08:41.920 that President Trump

00:08:43.000 killed 200,000 people

00:08:45.140 with his,

00:08:45.960 his bad performance

00:08:47.480 on the coronavirus.

00:08:48.380 and I was looking

00:08:49.200 for a little bit

00:08:50.780 of specificity.

00:08:52.900 You know,

00:08:53.080 can you tell me,

00:08:54.560 tell me exactly

00:08:55.380 what he did

00:08:56.040 that killed people?

00:08:57.700 How,

00:08:58.340 how did that happen?

00:09:00.240 And,

00:09:00.840 some people,

00:09:02.420 helpfully,

00:09:03.540 chimed in.

00:09:05.060 In this case,

00:09:06.000 Pat East,

00:09:07.460 said,

00:09:08.420 and here's his list

00:09:09.560 of how the President

00:09:10.380 killed 200,000 people.

00:09:11.800 Number one,

00:09:12.840 he still doesn't

00:09:13.880 wear a mask.

00:09:15.520 That's right.

00:09:16.800 President Trump

00:09:17.500 doesn't wear a mask

00:09:18.600 and therefore,

00:09:21.060 logically,

00:09:23.080 200,000 people died.

00:09:25.760 Now,

00:09:26.420 you might say to yourself,

00:09:27.720 I'm not seeing

00:09:28.720 the connecting tissue here.

00:09:30.360 Are you telling me

00:09:31.160 that as a role model,

00:09:33.880 he encouraged people

00:09:34.880 to wear fewer masks?

00:09:36.920 And I guess that's

00:09:37.700 what the point is,

00:09:38.640 right?

00:09:39.440 But I ask you this,

00:09:41.560 at what point

00:09:42.980 did you tell,

00:09:43.980 tell yourself

00:09:44.900 that President Trump

00:09:46.700 was your role model?

00:09:48.840 Was there any point

00:09:50.400 that you said to yourself,

00:09:52.060 you know,

00:09:52.680 I've been watching

00:09:53.740 this guy for a while

00:09:54.740 and I feel like

00:09:56.120 I need to

00:09:56.880 model my life

00:09:58.620 more,

00:09:59.780 more similar

00:10:01.020 to President Trump

00:10:02.180 because I like him

00:10:03.420 as a president

00:10:04.080 and therefore,

00:10:06.000 logically,

00:10:06.840 I should sort of

00:10:07.640 copy him

00:10:08.740 in all things he does

00:10:10.500 personally

00:10:11.020 and professionally.

00:10:12.440 You all thought that,

00:10:13.660 right?

00:10:13.880 Come on,

00:10:15.140 you're Trump supporters.

00:10:17.700 Be honest.

00:10:19.180 You don't need

00:10:20.360 to lie to me.

00:10:21.580 You know

00:10:22.180 that you looked

00:10:22.780 at President Trump

00:10:23.680 and you said to yourself,

00:10:25.120 there's a bunch of stuff

00:10:26.380 I'm going to copy.

00:10:28.260 I like everything he does.

00:10:33.120 Now,

00:10:33.580 I know some of you

00:10:34.600 are going to lie

00:10:35.460 and you're going to say,

00:10:36.740 no,

00:10:37.040 I like him

00:10:37.600 because of his

00:10:38.340 lowering taxes

00:10:39.920 or something

00:10:41.560 about Supreme Court

00:10:42.920 picks

00:10:43.740 and stuff like that.

00:10:45.220 Crazy stuff.

00:10:46.560 But I know,

00:10:48.060 I know the real thing

00:10:49.220 you like about him

00:10:50.140 is that you'd like

00:10:51.580 to model your life

00:10:52.880 after all of his

00:10:54.380 personal choices

00:10:55.480 because they're so strong

00:10:57.320 and they're,

00:10:58.140 and they,

00:10:58.720 and they fit your life

00:10:59.720 so well.

00:11:01.060 So when you saw

00:11:01.840 the president

00:11:02.400 who had the benefit

00:11:04.480 of testing

00:11:05.700 each and every person

00:11:06.880 who came within

00:11:07.560 his contact,

00:11:08.920 testing them

00:11:09.480 for coronavirus,

00:11:10.660 you said to yourself,

00:11:12.180 you know,

00:11:12.760 that's just like

00:11:13.580 my situation.

00:11:14.380 I also test

00:11:17.140 everybody who comes

00:11:18.800 within 100 yards

00:11:19.820 of me

00:11:20.140 because I have

00:11:22.180 a full medical

00:11:23.240 department

00:11:24.660 in my house

00:11:25.660 just like the White House

00:11:26.980 and if anybody

00:11:28.860 gets close

00:11:29.600 I don't wear my mask

00:11:31.600 because I make sure

00:11:32.360 they all get tested

00:11:33.320 and I've got a result

00:11:34.900 before I get near them.

00:11:36.800 So that's just like you,

00:11:37.740 right?

00:11:38.920 Didn't,

00:11:39.280 didn't you decide

00:11:39.940 to not wear a mask

00:11:40.980 because the president

00:11:41.840 does and your life

00:11:43.420 is a lot like his.

00:11:45.560 Very similar

00:11:46.600 or it should be.

00:11:48.140 I mean,

00:11:48.520 really,

00:11:49.040 you should model

00:11:50.040 your life

00:11:50.540 after the president.

00:11:52.160 So that's what

00:11:53.140 Democrats think.

00:11:54.220 They think that

00:11:54.760 Republicans

00:11:55.300 looked at the president

00:11:56.600 and said,

00:11:58.100 you know,

00:11:59.460 that situation

00:12:00.540 applies to me.

00:12:02.080 In fact,

00:12:03.560 I don't,

00:12:05.000 I don't need

00:12:06.560 to carry firearms

00:12:07.560 or have them

00:12:08.820 in my house.

00:12:09.440 Do you know why?

00:12:10.500 Because my secret service

00:12:11.980 has that covered.

00:12:13.420 So one of the reasons

00:12:14.360 I decide

00:12:15.080 to have a gun

00:12:16.900 or not have a gun

00:12:17.840 in my house

00:12:18.680 for personal defense

00:12:20.440 is I look around

00:12:21.520 and say,

00:12:22.000 why would I need a gun?

00:12:24.240 I have my,

00:12:25.040 my entire fleet

00:12:26.680 of secret service people.

00:12:29.020 They have guns.

00:12:29.640 They'll protect me.

00:12:30.720 So I don't need one,

00:12:31.760 right?

00:12:32.060 Didn't you make

00:12:32.560 the same decision?

00:12:34.040 Come on.

00:12:34.980 Admit it.

00:12:36.940 A lot of you

00:12:37.840 had guns

00:12:38.640 and then you saw

00:12:39.960 that President Trump

00:12:40.960 doesn't carry,

00:12:42.220 I think,

00:12:42.780 I think this is true,

00:12:44.060 he doesn't carry

00:12:45.000 a gun with him

00:12:45.780 in the Oval Office

00:12:47.520 and you said,

00:12:48.680 well,

00:12:48.880 why?

00:12:49.860 Like,

00:12:50.180 I have a gun.

00:12:51.200 I thought it was

00:12:51.760 a good idea

00:12:52.220 for self-defense

00:12:52.920 but I noticed

00:12:54.020 that the president

00:12:54.740 doesn't.

00:12:56.000 He doesn't carry

00:12:56.820 a gun.

00:12:57.920 I don't think

00:12:58.340 he keeps one

00:12:58.940 in the Oval Office.

00:13:00.580 Why?

00:13:01.380 Well,

00:13:01.640 obviously his situation

00:13:02.760 is the same as yours.

00:13:04.480 He's got the

00:13:05.120 secret service

00:13:05.680 to protect him

00:13:06.340 just like you do.

00:13:07.860 Just like you do.

00:13:09.140 Yeah,

00:13:09.420 it's a fleet.

00:13:10.700 It's called

00:13:11.120 a fleet of secret service.

00:13:13.020 It's like a gaggle

00:13:14.420 or a murder of crows.

00:13:16.760 Come on,

00:13:17.160 keep up with me.

00:13:19.980 So that's what

00:13:20.760 Democrats think

00:13:21.540 that Republicans

00:13:22.240 do to make decisions.

00:13:24.660 Then also

00:13:25.380 that the early testing

00:13:26.480 was horrible

00:13:27.140 and obviously

00:13:28.500 the president

00:13:29.420 is personally

00:13:31.360 responsible

00:13:31.980 for the tests

00:13:33.060 being

00:13:33.440 inadequate.

00:13:35.700 So the first

00:13:36.940 tests that we had

00:13:38.020 they just didn't work.

00:13:39.860 They were technically

00:13:40.780 imperfect.

00:13:43.900 And you have to

00:13:45.060 think that's

00:13:46.280 the president's fault

00:13:47.220 because all of the

00:13:49.180 hours that he spends

00:13:50.280 in the lab

00:13:51.080 testing kits

00:13:52.760 and running

00:13:54.240 this test

00:13:55.360 against this other

00:13:56.180 he does a lot

00:13:57.300 of science

00:13:57.980 on the job.

00:14:00.360 And

00:14:00.560 I think

00:14:02.360 that's sort of

00:14:02.980 his fault.

00:14:04.400 Right?

00:14:04.920 I mean,

00:14:05.480 if President

00:14:06.240 Trump spent

00:14:06.880 all that time

00:14:07.700 doing direct

00:14:09.400 building of test

00:14:10.820 kits

00:14:11.120 and then making

00:14:11.940 sure that they

00:14:12.500 worked

00:14:12.860 and he didn't

00:14:13.820 build them right

00:14:14.580 I know a lot of you

00:14:16.160 are thinking

00:14:16.640 well,

00:14:17.360 wait a minute,

00:14:17.820 Scott,

00:14:18.100 I don't think

00:14:18.920 the president

00:14:19.460 does that

00:14:20.020 personally.

00:14:21.620 It feels to me

00:14:22.920 as if

00:14:23.380 it wouldn't have

00:14:24.580 mattered

00:14:24.860 who was president

00:14:25.760 because

00:14:27.220 was Obama

00:14:29.140 actually

00:14:29.760 in the lab

00:14:31.300 and working

00:14:32.340 on those test

00:14:33.100 kits?

00:14:33.780 So if he had

00:14:34.600 been president

00:14:35.160 for a third

00:14:35.740 term

00:14:36.080 we'd be okay,

00:14:37.480 right?

00:14:38.100 Because he would

00:14:38.840 have worked out

00:14:39.320 the science

00:14:39.980 unlike

00:14:40.520 dumb old

00:14:41.620 President Trump.

00:14:43.260 It's like he

00:14:44.100 doesn't even know

00:14:44.600 how to mix

00:14:45.020 chemicals or

00:14:45.740 something,

00:14:46.180 right?

00:14:47.140 It's like

00:14:47.480 so that was

00:14:49.520 the other good

00:14:50.020 reason.

00:14:50.340 and then

00:14:50.840 there was

00:14:51.120 this one

00:14:51.540 the PPE

00:14:52.620 was confiscated

00:14:53.860 by the feds.

00:14:55.520 What?

00:14:57.820 What?

00:14:59.020 Okay.

00:15:00.480 If there

00:15:01.200 wasn't enough

00:15:01.860 PPE

00:15:02.360 I think it

00:15:04.080 did make sense

00:15:04.940 to give it

00:15:05.440 to the front

00:15:05.960 line workers.

00:15:07.600 I'm not sure

00:15:08.260 anybody else

00:15:08.960 is holding

00:15:09.420 that against

00:15:10.280 the president

00:15:10.820 and then

00:15:11.740 the fourth

00:15:12.320 thing that

00:15:12.740 the president

00:15:13.160 did that

00:15:13.640 killed

00:15:13.940 200,000

00:15:15.400 people

00:15:15.760 is that

00:15:17.760 he said

00:15:18.160 the virus

00:15:18.680 is going

00:15:19.180 away.

00:15:20.340 which is

00:15:21.760 very similar

00:15:23.280 to or

00:15:24.000 exactly what

00:15:24.900 everybody in

00:15:25.780 the world

00:15:26.100 thinks.

00:15:27.540 It is going

00:15:28.080 to go away.

00:15:28.960 I don't know

00:15:29.680 when.

00:15:30.620 And of course

00:15:31.000 everybody knows

00:15:31.700 the president

00:15:32.200 is a little

00:15:32.900 hyperbolic.

00:15:34.460 But if you

00:15:35.180 thought the

00:15:35.680 virus was

00:15:37.480 going to

00:15:37.980 go away

00:15:38.560 how did

00:15:39.640 you act

00:15:40.020 differently?

00:15:41.180 Did you

00:15:41.860 say to

00:15:42.180 yourself

00:15:42.580 someday

00:15:43.580 in the

00:15:43.980 future

00:15:44.380 the virus

00:15:45.660 will go

00:15:46.200 away

00:15:46.600 therefore

00:15:47.600 logically

00:15:48.500 it cannot

00:15:49.640 infect

00:15:50.200 me

00:15:50.640 today?

00:15:52.220 You thought

00:15:52.960 that right?

00:15:53.900 You're sitting

00:15:54.400 at home

00:15:54.800 and you

00:15:55.000 said oh

00:15:55.440 the president

00:15:55.980 just said

00:15:56.540 that someday

00:15:57.360 in the

00:15:57.760 future

00:15:58.180 we don't

00:15:59.140 know when

00:15:59.620 but in

00:15:59.940 the future

00:16:00.480 the virus

00:16:01.680 will go

00:16:02.080 away

00:16:02.360 and therefore

00:16:03.200 since the

00:16:03.760 virus will

00:16:04.300 go away

00:16:04.700 in the

00:16:04.980 future

00:16:05.400 it poses

00:16:07.040 no risk

00:16:07.740 to me

00:16:08.100 today

00:16:08.480 so I

00:16:08.860 don't need

00:16:09.140 to wear

00:16:09.360 a mask

00:16:09.840 because it

00:16:10.800 won't exist

00:16:11.400 in the

00:16:12.220 future.

00:16:13.560 So that's

00:16:14.200 the fourth

00:16:14.680 good reason

00:16:15.340 that Pat

00:16:16.660 East gives

00:16:17.280 me on

00:16:17.860 Twitter

00:16:18.160 for why

00:16:18.840 the president

00:16:19.280 killed

00:16:19.780 200,000

00:16:20.720 people.

00:16:21.780 He didn't

00:16:22.140 wear a

00:16:22.480 mask

00:16:22.900 which made

00:16:23.680 everybody

00:16:24.280 who follows

00:16:25.820 him not

00:16:26.180 wear a

00:16:26.500 mask

00:16:26.740 obviously.

00:16:28.280 He botched

00:16:29.840 those test

00:16:30.460 kits that he

00:16:31.100 made personally.

00:16:32.420 He allowed

00:16:34.040 the PPE to

00:16:34.940 go to the

00:16:35.640 frontline workers

00:16:36.720 okay

00:16:38.180 and he

00:16:39.860 thought it

00:16:40.200 would go

00:16:40.500 away in

00:16:41.000 the future

00:16:41.520 which caused

00:16:42.940 people in

00:16:43.600 the present

00:16:44.180 to think

00:16:45.080 that they

00:16:45.480 couldn't be

00:16:45.880 infected by

00:16:47.140 an active

00:16:47.740 virus.

00:16:49.260 Because that

00:16:50.300 makes sense.

00:16:51.320 So those are

00:16:51.820 the good

00:16:52.240 reasons that

00:16:52.880 are given

00:16:53.200 for why the

00:16:54.240 president killed

00:16:54.800 200,000

00:16:55.360 people.

00:16:56.860 You may

00:16:57.700 not know

00:16:58.700 this but

00:16:59.680 now you

00:17:00.380 will.

00:17:01.320 There's a

00:17:01.840 lawsuit against

00:17:02.860 our favorite

00:17:03.600 meme maker

00:17:04.400 Carpe

00:17:04.880 Donctum who

00:17:05.560 got kicked

00:17:06.340 off of

00:17:06.720 Twitter.

00:17:06.940 And you

00:17:09.240 can see it

00:17:09.720 in my

00:17:10.100 Twitter feed

00:17:10.880 or you

00:17:11.460 can just

00:17:11.760 search for

00:17:12.320 it Carpe

00:17:13.100 Donctum

00:17:13.520 and you

00:17:15.480 should donate

00:17:16.620 to that.

00:17:17.860 Because if

00:17:18.780 you haven't

00:17:19.200 noticed the

00:17:20.840 war within

00:17:22.200 the war

00:17:22.740 a lot of

00:17:24.400 the people

00:17:24.740 who are

00:17:25.140 effective at

00:17:26.720 promoting

00:17:28.100 their side

00:17:28.840 are being

00:17:29.900 picked off

00:17:30.740 in a way

00:17:31.740 we didn't

00:17:32.180 used to do

00:17:32.720 before.

00:17:33.180 It used to

00:17:33.540 be that people

00:17:34.160 would go after

00:17:34.680 the professionals

00:17:35.460 after the

00:17:36.620 politicians

00:17:37.180 but now

00:17:38.260 people are

00:17:38.660 going after

00:17:39.060 pundits.

00:17:40.080 People are

00:17:40.340 going after

00:17:40.900 any strong

00:17:42.840 advocate if

00:17:44.160 they can get

00:17:44.720 them anyway.

00:17:46.060 So here's

00:17:46.480 Carpe Donctum

00:17:47.960 not some

00:17:50.120 rich guy

00:17:50.740 doesn't have

00:17:51.620 resources

00:17:53.040 unlimited

00:17:53.620 resources

00:17:54.240 and he

00:17:56.040 gets sued

00:17:56.720 for a

00:17:58.480 meme in

00:17:59.500 which two

00:18:00.640 little toddlers

00:18:01.440 were shown

00:18:02.100 and the

00:18:03.840 parents of

00:18:04.800 the toddlers

00:18:05.420 are suing

00:18:06.580 him.

00:18:08.080 Why?

00:18:09.200 I mean what

00:18:09.700 possible harm

00:18:10.820 could have

00:18:11.480 happened because

00:18:12.180 two toddlers

00:18:12.820 that nobody

00:18:13.280 recognized?

00:18:14.460 And by the

00:18:14.840 way the

00:18:15.980 video he

00:18:16.580 used was

00:18:17.180 something that

00:18:17.600 was already

00:18:17.960 public.

00:18:18.980 He just

00:18:19.400 used it in a

00:18:20.100 different context

00:18:20.880 to make it

00:18:21.360 look different.

00:18:22.280 But it was

00:18:22.760 obviously a

00:18:23.500 joke.

00:18:24.340 Anybody who

00:18:24.920 saw it knew

00:18:25.400 it was a

00:18:25.780 joke.

00:18:26.160 It had

00:18:26.380 nothing to

00:18:26.900 do with the

00:18:27.280 two little

00:18:27.660 kids in

00:18:28.120 it.

00:18:28.520 It wasn't

00:18:29.000 accusing them

00:18:29.840 or anything

00:18:30.260 or blaming

00:18:30.940 them because

00:18:31.940 they were

00:18:32.400 toddlers.

00:18:34.080 So nobody

00:18:35.500 could possibly

00:18:36.360 make any

00:18:36.880 kind of

00:18:37.180 judgment about

00:18:37.900 the kids.

00:18:39.520 And again

00:18:40.300 it was already

00:18:40.760 public video

00:18:41.720 so it's not

00:18:42.300 like they

00:18:42.900 were being

00:18:43.240 seen for

00:18:43.700 the first

00:18:44.000 time.

00:18:45.340 So this

00:18:46.020 is just

00:18:46.360 more of

00:18:47.100 the badness

00:18:48.220 of people

00:18:48.660 trying to

00:18:49.180 take chess

00:18:50.340 pieces off

00:18:51.000 the board

00:18:51.460 simply because

00:18:53.140 he's a

00:18:54.480 supporter of

00:18:55.260 President Trump

00:18:56.340 he gets

00:18:57.340 sued.

00:18:58.400 Now do

00:18:58.800 you think

00:18:59.140 that the

00:18:59.500 lawsuit the

00:19:00.280 purpose of

00:19:00.900 it is to

00:19:01.940 win?

00:19:02.960 Do you

00:19:03.280 think those

00:19:03.700 parents have

00:19:04.300 anything to

00:19:04.940 win?

00:19:06.240 Right?

00:19:06.720 What are they

00:19:07.220 going to win?

00:19:08.340 Are they going

00:19:08.880 to get all

00:19:09.380 of his money

00:19:09.900 that doesn't

00:19:10.420 exist?

00:19:11.900 Right?

00:19:12.200 All of his

00:19:12.700 wealth or

00:19:13.180 something that

00:19:13.640 doesn't exist?

00:19:14.980 All it does

00:19:15.960 is punish him.

00:19:17.220 It is nothing

00:19:18.000 but a way to

00:19:18.740 take a piece

00:19:19.980 off the board

00:19:20.680 and punish him

00:19:22.040 away from

00:19:22.480 politics.

00:19:24.280 So if you

00:19:25.160 can donate to

00:19:25.900 his legal

00:19:26.360 defense fund

00:19:27.080 you would

00:19:28.120 be doing a

00:19:28.620 good thing

00:19:29.000 for the

00:19:29.320 world I

00:19:29.740 think.

00:19:30.920 So there's

00:19:31.300 something really

00:19:31.880 interesting happening

00:19:32.840 in the world

00:19:33.560 of batteries.

00:19:36.060 Now that

00:19:36.740 doesn't seem

00:19:37.220 like a sexy

00:19:38.080 topic except

00:19:38.880 it's going to

00:19:39.620 change the

00:19:40.120 whole freaking

00:19:40.840 world.

00:19:42.260 There's something

00:19:42.980 about ready to

00:19:43.960 happen and

00:19:44.740 when I say

00:19:45.320 about it

00:19:46.380 could be within

00:19:47.020 the next two

00:19:47.880 years but you

00:19:48.720 could see some

00:19:49.340 things really

00:19:50.040 soon.

00:19:52.820 The first

00:19:53.620 one is that

00:19:54.280 Tesla is

00:19:55.560 talking about

00:19:56.240 something they

00:19:56.880 call battery

00:19:57.580 day.

00:19:58.480 Battery day

00:19:59.340 apparently,

00:20:00.520 if I understand

00:20:01.300 it right,

00:20:02.200 is the

00:20:02.660 theoretical day

00:20:04.780 at which

00:20:05.760 buying a car

00:20:06.740 with a battery

00:20:07.420 will just be

00:20:08.360 less expensive

00:20:09.240 than a car

00:20:10.000 with gasoline.

00:20:11.500 And once it

00:20:12.040 becomes more

00:20:13.120 economical to

00:20:14.080 have a battery

00:20:14.760 instead of

00:20:15.500 gasoline,

00:20:16.840 then everything

00:20:17.520 changes quickly.

00:20:18.920 Things are

00:20:19.460 changing but

00:20:20.120 that's when it

00:20:20.920 changes really

00:20:21.480 quickly.

00:20:21.860 because nobody

00:20:23.140 is going to

00:20:24.040 want a gas

00:20:25.080 powered car.

00:20:27.420 Not nobody,

00:20:28.140 but you know

00:20:28.480 what I mean.

00:20:29.200 A lot of

00:20:29.580 people are

00:20:29.900 just going to

00:20:30.300 say,

00:20:30.540 oh,

00:20:30.760 well,

00:20:31.040 I'll take

00:20:31.400 the one

00:20:31.640 that costs

00:20:32.000 less if

00:20:32.460 that's

00:20:32.720 electric.

00:20:33.580 Why

00:20:33.820 wouldn't I?

00:20:34.460 Lots of

00:20:34.880 advantages.

00:20:36.060 So I

00:20:37.340 guess Musk

00:20:38.080 said that

00:20:38.580 that might

00:20:38.940 be two

00:20:39.420 years away

00:20:40.140 and that

00:20:41.080 might have

00:20:41.520 to do with

00:20:41.880 how long

00:20:42.220 it takes

00:20:42.520 to build

00:20:42.920 production

00:20:43.500 and create

00:20:44.160 enough

00:20:44.460 batteries.

00:20:45.500 And

00:20:45.540 apparently

00:20:45.920 Tesla is

00:20:46.800 at least

00:20:47.280 teasing that

00:20:48.900 they might

00:20:49.260 start making

00:20:49.820 their own

00:20:50.200 batteries instead

00:20:51.080 of buying

00:20:51.860 all of

00:20:52.380 them or

00:20:53.460 buying,

00:20:54.260 I don't

00:20:54.500 know,

00:20:54.680 most or

00:20:55.060 all of

00:20:55.320 them from

00:20:56.120 other places.

00:20:57.240 So that's

00:20:57.880 big.

00:20:58.480 Now,

00:20:58.760 if you

00:20:59.060 didn't know

00:20:59.580 this,

00:21:00.760 the improvement

00:21:02.620 in batteries

00:21:03.500 is very similar

00:21:05.000 to the

00:21:05.380 improvement in

00:21:06.180 microchips.

00:21:07.320 You know how

00:21:07.800 microchips just

00:21:08.740 get better and

00:21:09.320 better and

00:21:09.640 better and

00:21:10.380 you say to

00:21:10.800 yourself,

00:21:11.560 well,

00:21:11.760 when is this

00:21:12.240 going to

00:21:12.500 stop?

00:21:13.180 When do

00:21:13.680 microchips

00:21:14.380 stop getting

00:21:15.580 faster?

00:21:16.760 And the answer

00:21:17.280 is, I don't

00:21:17.980 know, but

00:21:18.420 they just keep

00:21:18.940 going.

00:21:19.280 They just

00:21:19.840 keep getting

00:21:20.400 faster.

00:21:22.280 Batteries are

00:21:22.920 doing the

00:21:23.240 same thing.

00:21:24.120 But I think

00:21:24.440 it's a slower

00:21:25.040 rate so you

00:21:25.820 don't see it

00:21:26.300 as much,

00:21:26.680 you know,

00:21:26.860 it's not as

00:21:27.320 flashy.

00:21:28.200 It's not like

00:21:28.760 it's doubling

00:21:29.240 every year.

00:21:30.180 But it's

00:21:31.360 very consistently

00:21:32.200 getting better

00:21:33.080 every year and

00:21:34.040 quite substantially

00:21:34.920 to the point

00:21:36.200 where everything

00:21:38.320 will change.

00:21:39.760 The feasibility

00:21:41.420 of all kinds

00:21:42.820 of things

00:21:43.360 changes if

00:21:44.640 you can store

00:21:45.480 energy

00:21:46.460 economically.

00:21:47.840 There is

00:21:48.520 apparently another

00:21:49.180 startup called

00:21:51.260 QuantumScape.

00:21:54.960 And they're

00:21:55.500 talking about

00:21:56.780 an IPO,

00:21:57.940 but they

00:21:58.500 won't reveal

00:21:59.220 the details

00:21:59.880 of their

00:22:00.300 technology,

00:22:01.240 but they

00:22:01.860 claim to

00:22:02.400 have some

00:22:03.040 kind of

00:22:03.400 battery

00:22:03.720 breakthrough

00:22:04.260 that would

00:22:05.280 even leapfrog

00:22:06.300 where Tesla

00:22:06.960 is now.

00:22:08.560 And where

00:22:08.900 Tesla is now

00:22:09.660 is pretty

00:22:10.040 darn impressive.

00:22:11.220 But if this

00:22:11.960 is true,

00:22:12.860 and we have

00:22:13.460 reason to believe

00:22:14.180 maybe it's not

00:22:14.840 as true

00:22:15.260 as it

00:22:16.220 could be

00:22:16.600 because they're

00:22:17.100 not being

00:22:17.780 forthcoming

00:22:18.960 with their

00:22:19.360 details.

00:22:20.960 But if it's

00:22:21.560 true,

00:22:22.060 I mean,

00:22:22.580 it's a

00:22:24.280 billion-dollar

00:22:24.960 plus enterprise

00:22:26.160 and they

00:22:26.900 say they're

00:22:27.280 going IPO.

00:22:28.660 So if it's

00:22:29.280 a fraud,

00:22:30.500 it's a big

00:22:31.040 one.

00:22:32.040 So it's

00:22:32.640 either pretty

00:22:33.760 important or

00:22:35.660 it would be a

00:22:37.120 pretty bold

00:22:37.660 fraud if it

00:22:38.420 were a fraud.

00:22:39.280 So I'm

00:22:39.840 guessing it's

00:22:40.360 real.

00:22:41.580 The other

00:22:42.320 thing that's

00:22:42.720 changing is

00:22:43.300 that the

00:22:43.560 batteries are

00:22:44.080 becoming so

00:22:45.060 good, and

00:22:46.720 we anticipate

00:22:47.580 that they

00:22:48.080 will get

00:22:48.620 better at

00:22:49.240 such a rate

00:22:50.040 that it

00:22:50.940 will be

00:22:51.260 practical to

00:22:52.020 have airplanes

00:22:52.820 that are

00:22:53.740 electric.

00:22:54.720 And there

00:22:55.060 are companies

00:22:55.600 actively working

00:22:57.080 on electric

00:22:58.040 jets.

00:22:59.180 So if you've

00:23:00.060 got electric

00:23:00.680 jets, you've

00:23:02.080 got electric

00:23:02.600 cars that are

00:23:03.380 cheaper, you've

00:23:04.940 got a big

00:23:08.060 part of the

00:23:09.280 solution,

00:23:10.580 for maybe

00:23:12.060 something that

00:23:12.740 deals with

00:23:13.500 climate change,

00:23:14.400 for example.

00:23:16.720 Now, of course,

00:23:17.740 you still need

00:23:18.320 something to

00:23:18.980 generate all

00:23:19.760 that electricity,

00:23:20.900 and I'm

00:23:21.160 guessing it's

00:23:21.640 going to be

00:23:21.960 nuclear.

00:23:23.240 But if you

00:23:24.400 add nuclear

00:23:25.200 plus solar

00:23:26.940 plus batteries

00:23:27.940 plus some

00:23:29.120 people are

00:23:29.500 going to want

00:23:29.800 to do some

00:23:30.220 windmills,

00:23:31.480 maybe you

00:23:31.960 should do

00:23:32.200 more nuclear

00:23:33.660 and fewer

00:23:34.420 windmills.

00:23:35.280 But there's

00:23:35.800 also a

00:23:36.200 transition thing.

00:23:37.220 You could do

00:23:37.740 a windmill

00:23:38.120 faster than

00:23:38.740 you can do

00:23:39.320 a nuclear.

00:23:40.580 So I

00:23:41.880 think you're

00:23:42.400 going to

00:23:42.600 see the

00:23:42.960 point where

00:23:44.140 climate change

00:23:47.040 is, at

00:23:47.820 least we

00:23:48.320 feel it's

00:23:48.840 being addressed.

00:23:50.560 If you

00:23:51.260 don't think

00:23:51.660 climate change

00:23:52.240 is a problem,

00:23:53.060 that's separate.

00:23:54.540 But a lot of

00:23:55.800 people do,

00:23:56.840 and I do

00:23:58.700 think that the

00:23:59.460 climate's getting

00:24:00.360 warmer.

00:24:01.240 So it might

00:24:02.100 make a difference.

00:24:03.520 It might make

00:24:04.240 a difference.

00:24:05.000 That's right.

00:24:05.520 So nuclear

00:24:06.100 plus better

00:24:07.000 batteries is

00:24:07.900 just a

00:24:08.300 complete game

00:24:09.040 changer.

00:24:10.040 Complete game

00:24:10.960 changer.

00:24:11.800 But here's the

00:24:12.680 other way it's

00:24:13.140 a game changer.

00:24:14.160 I don't believe

00:24:15.320 we would see

00:24:16.160 as much

00:24:16.800 progress in

00:24:17.680 the Middle

00:24:18.000 East in

00:24:18.980 terms of

00:24:19.580 peace deals

00:24:20.640 with Israel

00:24:22.200 unless all

00:24:25.600 of the oil

00:24:26.120 producing regions

00:24:27.220 could see

00:24:27.960 that in the

00:24:28.820 long run

00:24:29.500 oil is going

00:24:31.260 to be less

00:24:32.160 important.

00:24:32.600 If you

00:24:34.320 own a

00:24:34.780 country that

00:24:35.360 produces

00:24:36.000 oil and

00:24:36.520 everybody

00:24:36.800 needs it

00:24:37.420 and they

00:24:37.840 just have

00:24:38.720 to deal

00:24:39.080 with you,

00:24:39.680 they just

00:24:40.480 have to

00:24:41.120 deal with

00:24:41.460 you because

00:24:41.800 they need

00:24:42.180 oil,

00:24:42.940 you can

00:24:43.600 be a

00:24:43.920 bad actor.

00:24:45.180 You can

00:24:45.600 be a

00:24:45.940 very bad

00:24:46.660 country as

00:24:47.800 long as

00:24:48.160 you have

00:24:48.400 oil because

00:24:49.440 people are

00:24:49.840 still going

00:24:50.160 to buy

00:24:50.380 your oil.

00:24:51.300 But what

00:24:51.640 if people

00:24:52.000 don't need

00:24:52.440 your oil?

00:24:53.640 Well,

00:24:54.180 if you're

00:24:54.500 looking at

00:24:55.080 20 years

00:24:56.280 from now,

00:24:56.920 you're going

00:24:57.280 to say to

00:24:57.620 yourself,

00:24:58.240 we better

00:24:59.700 make friends

00:25:00.640 and quick

00:25:01.520 because we're

00:25:02.620 going to need

00:25:02.960 to have a

00:25:03.300 different kind

00:25:03.840 of economy.

00:25:04.740 It's going

00:25:04.960 to require

00:25:05.480 more cooperative

00:25:06.640 win-win deals.

00:25:09.320 We're not

00:25:09.840 going to be

00:25:10.100 able to

00:25:10.360 just strong

00:25:10.940 arm people

00:25:11.420 and say,

00:25:11.880 hey,

00:25:12.000 you want

00:25:12.380 oil?

00:25:13.060 If you

00:25:13.500 want oil,

00:25:14.680 I guess

00:25:15.000 you've got

00:25:15.280 to deal

00:25:15.540 with us.

00:25:16.320 That will

00:25:16.680 be the

00:25:16.980 old way.

00:25:18.460 So when

00:25:19.400 you look

00:25:19.680 at the

00:25:20.020 Tesla

00:25:20.500 battery

00:25:21.760 deal,

00:25:22.720 you're

00:25:23.000 looking at

00:25:23.480 Elon Musk

00:25:24.500 creating peace

00:25:26.600 in the

00:25:26.820 Middle East.

00:25:28.120 Is that

00:25:28.760 too much

00:25:29.180 of a

00:25:29.420 statement?

00:25:29.680 I'm not

00:25:30.960 sure it

00:25:31.320 is.

00:25:32.520 I don't

00:25:32.920 think it

00:25:33.280 is.

00:25:34.100 I think

00:25:34.540 Elon Musk,

00:25:36.140 through the

00:25:36.700 power of

00:25:37.440 his entrepreneurial

00:25:38.400 will and

00:25:40.400 unnatural

00:25:41.480 ability to

00:25:42.320 get things

00:25:42.760 done,

00:25:43.800 I think

00:25:44.280 Elon Musk

00:25:45.140 is making

00:25:45.800 peace in

00:25:46.440 the Middle

00:25:46.740 East

00:25:47.100 possible.

00:25:48.880 Because I've

00:25:49.940 told you

00:25:50.340 lots of

00:25:50.860 times that

00:25:51.760 people are

00:25:52.140 more influenced

00:25:53.000 by the

00:25:53.480 direction of

00:25:54.220 things and

00:25:54.780 where things

00:25:55.240 are heading

00:25:55.700 than they

00:25:56.660 are by

00:25:57.000 where things

00:25:57.500 are.

00:25:58.440 Because you

00:25:58.800 really care

00:25:59.340 about where

00:25:59.720 you're

00:25:59.920 heading,

00:26:00.560 but you

00:26:01.440 don't think

00:26:01.900 so much

00:26:02.340 about where

00:26:02.720 you are,

00:26:03.120 you just

00:26:03.440 get used

00:26:03.840 to that.

00:26:06.140 And where

00:26:06.820 things are

00:26:07.280 heading,

00:26:08.380 thanks to

00:26:09.180 Elon Musk,

00:26:10.400 probably the

00:26:11.140 biggest influence

00:26:12.680 on where

00:26:13.180 things are

00:26:13.540 heading in

00:26:14.440 terms of

00:26:14.820 batteries,

00:26:16.080 the Middle

00:26:17.000 East has

00:26:17.460 got to get

00:26:17.840 flexible.

00:26:19.020 Recently we

00:26:19.740 saw that

00:26:20.240 Iran said

00:26:22.480 that it

00:26:22.760 would exchange

00:26:23.580 all prisoners

00:26:24.220 with the

00:26:24.680 United States.

00:26:25.440 now is

00:26:26.740 that foreshadowing

00:26:28.980 a little

00:26:29.480 bit of

00:26:29.760 flexibility

00:26:30.240 from Iran?

00:26:31.640 I don't

00:26:32.320 know.

00:26:33.220 Maybe not.

00:26:34.320 I mean,

00:26:34.880 historically,

00:26:36.360 they've done

00:26:37.240 prisoner things

00:26:38.000 before and it

00:26:38.820 didn't change

00:26:39.340 their overall

00:26:40.100 behavior,

00:26:40.860 but it

00:26:41.340 could be.

00:26:42.320 It could

00:26:42.620 be.

00:26:43.880 And I was

00:26:47.220 looking at

00:26:48.060 Pompeo,

00:26:48.820 I was

00:26:49.060 tweeting and

00:26:50.440 announcing that

00:26:52.560 Europe is

00:26:53.320 still selling

00:26:54.380 arms to

00:26:55.400 Iran.

00:26:56.380 And I

00:26:56.720 thought to

00:26:57.040 myself,

00:26:58.160 what?

00:26:59.160 That's one of

00:26:59.720 those things

00:27:00.120 you don't

00:27:00.380 really pay

00:27:00.800 attention to

00:27:01.480 until you

00:27:02.820 get slapped

00:27:03.360 in the face

00:27:03.900 with it.

00:27:04.340 And I

00:27:04.520 thought to

00:27:04.800 myself,

00:27:05.540 who exactly

00:27:06.620 is selling

00:27:07.140 arms to

00:27:07.780 Iran in

00:27:09.960 this day

00:27:10.640 and age?

00:27:11.980 And Pompeo

00:27:13.440 was a little

00:27:13.960 bit vague

00:27:14.920 about who

00:27:15.420 was doing

00:27:16.160 it, but

00:27:16.620 don't you

00:27:17.780 kind of want

00:27:18.400 to know

00:27:18.980 who exactly

00:27:21.180 is selling

00:27:21.920 military-grade

00:27:24.460 stuff to

00:27:25.020 Iran?

00:27:25.980 How in

00:27:26.560 the world

00:27:26.940 does that

00:27:27.340 make sense?

00:27:28.660 Why are

00:27:29.000 we doing

00:27:29.460 business with

00:27:31.920 any country

00:27:32.600 that's selling

00:27:33.080 Iran,

00:27:34.120 selling weapons

00:27:34.840 to Iran?

00:27:35.900 Are we

00:27:36.500 talking about

00:27:36.940 a big

00:27:37.340 country like

00:27:37.960 France?

00:27:38.960 Who the

00:27:39.520 hell is

00:27:40.040 selling weapons

00:27:40.660 to Iran?

00:27:42.120 Now,

00:27:43.040 is it,

00:27:43.780 is it,

00:27:45.280 and Pompeo

00:27:46.740 said it

00:27:47.100 was Europe.

00:27:48.460 He didn't

00:27:48.760 say it was

00:27:50.240 China or

00:27:51.120 Russia.

00:27:52.840 So I

00:27:53.400 got questions

00:27:53.980 about that.

00:27:54.860 But I

00:27:56.420 do suspect

00:27:57.020 that it

00:27:57.660 is possible

00:27:58.420 because of

00:27:59.820 the direction

00:28:00.380 of where

00:28:00.860 oil is

00:28:01.420 going,

00:28:02.200 that Iran

00:28:02.900 might actually

00:28:03.700 get flexible.

00:28:05.280 And the

00:28:06.260 administration

00:28:06.800 is sort

00:28:08.120 of surrounding

00:28:08.840 them with

00:28:09.600 allied forces

00:28:12.020 at this

00:28:12.500 point.

00:28:13.040 If Israel

00:28:13.860 and the

00:28:15.000 other countries

00:28:16.080 that are not

00:28:16.720 Iran start

00:28:17.460 being friendly,

00:28:18.400 it's going

00:28:19.300 to be

00:28:19.500 tough to

00:28:19.860 be

00:28:20.000 Iran.

00:28:21.460 Tough to

00:28:21.940 be

00:28:22.080 Iran.

00:28:26.400 I just

00:28:28.400 have to

00:28:28.680 look at

00:28:28.960 this.

00:28:33.080 I won't

00:28:33.720 even tell

00:28:34.040 you what

00:28:34.280 that's

00:28:34.520 about.

00:28:37.260 So yeah,

00:28:38.020 selling weapons

00:28:38.640 to Iran.

00:28:39.360 Let's get

00:28:39.740 some more

00:28:40.060 information

00:28:40.720 about that

00:28:41.420 because this

00:28:42.220 is one of

00:28:42.620 those things

00:28:43.040 that just

00:28:43.440 needs a

00:28:43.900 little sunlight,

00:28:45.000 doesn't it?

00:28:45.480 somebody's

00:28:48.000 asking about

00:28:48.520 Turkey.

00:28:50.680 I don't

00:28:51.340 know.

00:28:51.740 Let's find

00:28:52.360 out because

00:28:53.320 we should be

00:28:53.900 putting a

00:28:54.980 lot of

00:28:55.400 pressure on

00:28:56.180 any European

00:28:56.980 country.

00:28:58.200 Why would

00:28:58.940 we defend

00:28:59.660 a European

00:29:01.160 country that's

00:29:01.900 selling arms

00:29:02.760 to Iran?

00:29:04.080 Are we part

00:29:05.120 of NATO

00:29:05.600 with some

00:29:06.240 country that's

00:29:06.840 selling arms

00:29:07.580 to Iran?

00:29:08.740 Let's find

00:29:09.680 out what

00:29:09.980 that's all

00:29:10.400 about.

00:29:11.220 All right.

00:29:11.440 It's been

00:29:14.080 84 days

00:29:14.860 since Joe

00:29:15.420 Biden

00:29:15.780 promised to

00:29:16.640 release his

00:29:17.280 potential

00:29:17.820 Supreme Court

00:29:19.160 nominees.

00:29:20.280 Why do you

00:29:21.100 think it is

00:29:21.780 that Joe

00:29:22.620 Biden does

00:29:23.240 not want

00:29:23.700 to release

00:29:24.280 his list

00:29:25.180 of potential

00:29:25.960 Supreme Court

00:29:27.400 nominees?

00:29:28.920 Well,

00:29:30.380 I have a

00:29:31.480 suggestion.

00:29:33.820 The suggestion

00:29:34.980 might be

00:29:35.620 that in

00:29:37.360 the conservative

00:29:38.620 world,

00:29:39.340 people largely

00:29:41.040 agree what

00:29:42.000 a good

00:29:42.440 judge looks

00:29:43.420 like or a

00:29:44.100 good Supreme

00:29:44.880 Court justice.

00:29:46.180 They know

00:29:46.740 what that

00:29:47.040 looks like.

00:29:48.260 So I think

00:29:48.680 conservatives

00:29:49.240 could be,

00:29:50.140 you could rely

00:29:51.180 on them to

00:29:51.900 like the same

00:29:53.420 group of

00:29:53.920 people.

00:29:54.780 But I don't

00:29:55.520 know if that's

00:29:56.080 true for the

00:29:56.700 Democrats anymore.

00:29:58.060 It could be

00:29:58.640 that the

00:29:59.020 Democrats have

00:29:59.740 now split

00:30:00.680 into the

00:30:01.840 reasonable

00:30:03.200 moderates

00:30:03.980 and the

00:30:04.600 more extreme

00:30:05.980 ones.

00:30:06.460 And it could

00:30:06.840 be that there's

00:30:07.500 no such

00:30:08.020 thing as

00:30:09.300 a list

00:30:09.780 that Joe

00:30:10.280 Biden could

00:30:10.880 put out

00:30:11.400 that wouldn't

00:30:12.280 drive his

00:30:12.940 own base

00:30:13.440 apart.

00:30:14.680 It's possible

00:30:15.720 he can't

00:30:16.520 put that

00:30:16.920 list out

00:30:17.560 because it

00:30:18.420 would reveal

00:30:19.040 that the

00:30:19.460 Democrats are

00:30:20.080 not unified

00:30:20.760 and it would

00:30:21.420 give them a

00:30:21.900 reason to

00:30:22.600 hate each

00:30:25.040 other.

00:30:30.300 I guess

00:30:31.080 the U.S.

00:30:31.820 military is

00:30:32.400 going to

00:30:32.760 cut in half

00:30:33.460 once again

00:30:34.000 its troops

00:30:34.560 in Iraq.

00:30:35.500 How many

00:30:35.980 times does

00:30:37.360 President Trump

00:30:38.180 have to do

00:30:38.860 something that

00:30:39.520 the military

00:30:40.180 says shouldn't

00:30:41.380 be done or

00:30:41.980 couldn't be

00:30:42.440 done and it

00:30:43.060 works out

00:30:43.480 fine?

00:30:44.840 How many

00:30:45.200 examples have

00:30:46.060 we seen

00:30:46.480 now where

00:30:47.620 Trump and

00:30:48.300 the military

00:30:48.880 have disagreed

00:30:49.940 and Trump

00:30:51.160 turns out to

00:30:51.860 be right?

00:30:53.440 A lot?

00:30:54.920 All of them?

00:30:56.460 Doesn't it look

00:30:57.120 to you like

00:30:57.820 Trump is right

00:30:59.360 on military

00:31:00.020 stuff?

00:31:00.960 A lot?

00:31:01.900 and could

00:31:04.520 it be

00:31:04.980 because Trump

00:31:06.860 is right

00:31:07.440 that the

00:31:08.180 generals are

00:31:08.800 dopes and

00:31:09.540 we just

00:31:09.880 didn't know

00:31:10.320 it?

00:31:11.120 Or could

00:31:12.100 it be

00:31:12.480 that the

00:31:14.160 military

00:31:14.920 industrial

00:31:15.560 complex

00:31:16.380 makes the

00:31:17.780 generals act

00:31:18.820 dumb?

00:31:19.920 They're not

00:31:20.560 dumb, but

00:31:21.240 they act

00:31:21.780 dumb because

00:31:22.940 they're beholden

00:31:23.900 to other

00:31:24.540 interests.

00:31:25.580 Is that

00:31:25.940 possible?

00:31:27.160 Well, Eisenhower

00:31:28.140 said it was a

00:31:28.800 fact.

00:31:30.220 Nobody said

00:31:30.960 it wasn't a

00:31:31.500 fact.

00:31:32.160 From the

00:31:32.780 day that

00:31:33.160 Eisenhower

00:31:33.680 did his

00:31:34.320 military

00:31:35.360 industrial

00:31:35.900 speech where

00:31:37.580 he said,

00:31:38.020 hey, watch

00:31:38.360 out for the

00:31:38.940 military and

00:31:39.780 industry trying

00:31:41.080 to influence

00:31:41.740 the government,

00:31:42.360 they have too

00:31:42.680 much power.

00:31:43.660 Nobody from

00:31:44.500 that day to

00:31:45.240 today has

00:31:46.460 said that's

00:31:46.980 not real.

00:31:48.480 Nobody has

00:31:49.180 ever said,

00:31:49.900 nope, there's

00:31:50.960 no such thing

00:31:51.660 as a military

00:31:53.060 industrial complex.

00:31:55.240 And here we

00:31:55.680 are and you

00:31:56.740 have Trump

00:31:57.340 basically saying

00:31:59.240 that the

00:31:59.720 generals are

00:32:00.600 effectively not

00:32:02.220 on your

00:32:02.540 side.

00:32:03.960 Is he

00:32:04.600 wrong?

00:32:06.560 Well, if

00:32:07.620 Eisenhower was

00:32:08.500 right, so

00:32:10.080 is Trump.

00:32:11.320 He just

00:32:11.740 says it

00:32:12.120 differently.

00:32:13.080 Eisenhower

00:32:13.520 says watch

00:32:14.040 out for the

00:32:14.480 military-industrial

00:32:15.460 complex.

00:32:16.480 It's real.

00:32:17.860 Trump says

00:32:18.560 the generals

00:32:19.140 are dopes.

00:32:21.260 It's kind of

00:32:21.800 the same thing

00:32:22.420 because I

00:32:23.280 don't think

00:32:23.580 they're dopes

00:32:24.120 in the sense

00:32:24.640 that they're

00:32:25.000 actually not

00:32:25.820 smart.

00:32:26.820 Nobody would

00:32:27.320 make that

00:32:27.700 claim.

00:32:28.020 These are

00:32:28.740 very, very

00:32:29.340 smart people.

00:32:30.420 But if they

00:32:31.040 don't make

00:32:31.480 the right

00:32:31.860 decisions and

00:32:33.260 they consistently

00:32:34.140 don't make

00:32:34.700 the right

00:32:35.020 decisions, you

00:32:36.100 got to kind

00:32:36.560 of look at

00:32:36.940 Eisenhower,

00:32:37.520 don't you?

00:32:38.480 And say,

00:32:39.000 well, why

00:32:39.420 is that?

00:32:40.480 Is it because

00:32:41.360 they all get

00:32:42.020 lucrative jobs

00:32:43.240 later?

00:32:43.820 Is it because

00:32:44.380 of who they

00:32:44.860 hang out with

00:32:45.560 and how

00:32:46.340 they're influenced?

00:32:47.920 I don't know.

00:32:49.000 All I know

00:32:49.620 is that the

00:32:50.080 guy who's not

00:32:50.760 supposed to

00:32:51.220 know anything

00:32:51.800 about the

00:32:52.300 military,

00:32:53.420 Trump,

00:32:54.040 keeps making

00:32:54.880 the right

00:32:55.280 decisions.

00:32:55.720 And the

00:32:56.580 generals don't.

00:32:58.920 That's just

00:32:59.480 a fact now.

00:33:00.920 You know,

00:33:01.300 before I think

00:33:02.500 you could say,

00:33:03.140 hey, Trump

00:33:04.640 is crazy if

00:33:05.400 he's overruling

00:33:06.140 generals.

00:33:06.880 But not

00:33:07.500 now.

00:33:08.500 Now I think

00:33:09.120 you could say

00:33:09.740 Trump overruling

00:33:11.860 the generals

00:33:12.440 is pretty much

00:33:13.760 exactly what I

00:33:14.640 want to see

00:33:15.040 more of.

00:33:15.900 A lot more

00:33:16.680 of it,

00:33:17.320 actually.

00:33:20.200 All right.

00:33:22.880 Two of the

00:33:23.580 best things

00:33:24.160 that Trump

00:33:24.740 has brought

00:33:25.560 the country

00:33:26.200 are a

00:33:27.960 complete lack

00:33:28.780 of trust

00:33:29.340 in the

00:33:29.820 press and

00:33:31.220 a complete

00:33:31.820 lack of

00:33:32.420 trust in

00:33:32.960 our own

00:33:33.420 generals.

00:33:34.840 Now, I

00:33:35.780 know people

00:33:36.300 are going to

00:33:36.640 say, Scott,

00:33:37.880 those sound

00:33:38.440 like bad

00:33:38.940 things.

00:33:40.100 It's bad

00:33:40.720 that we

00:33:41.020 don't trust

00:33:41.540 our press

00:33:42.180 and it's

00:33:43.300 bad that we

00:33:43.900 don't trust

00:33:44.380 our generals.

00:33:45.720 Is it?

00:33:47.020 It's only

00:33:47.720 bad if it's

00:33:49.260 wrong.

00:33:50.520 If the

00:33:51.160 press were

00:33:51.740 legitimate and

00:33:53.000 the president

00:33:53.440 said don't

00:33:54.020 trust them,

00:33:54.740 well, that

00:33:55.380 would be a

00:33:55.780 problem.

00:33:56.940 But the

00:33:57.580 press is not

00:33:58.220 legitimate.

00:33:58.940 They're not

00:33:59.300 even close to

00:34:00.040 legitimate.

00:34:00.800 They're not

00:34:01.240 even slightly

00:34:01.980 legitimate.

00:34:03.240 So when the

00:34:03.940 president trains

00:34:05.340 the public to

00:34:06.880 understand that

00:34:07.820 the press is no

00:34:08.800 longer legitimate,

00:34:10.180 has he done a

00:34:11.180 horrible thing to

00:34:11.920 the country or

00:34:13.320 one of the most

00:34:14.140 valuable things

00:34:15.000 that's ever

00:34:15.420 happened?

00:34:16.260 I would say it's

00:34:17.100 one of the most

00:34:17.660 valuable things

00:34:18.820 that's ever

00:34:20.160 happened, our

00:34:21.240 understanding that

00:34:22.120 the press is no

00:34:22.920 longer what it

00:34:23.520 used to be and

00:34:24.260 can't be trusted.

00:34:25.680 What about

00:34:26.220 trusting our

00:34:27.200 generals or

00:34:28.200 not trusting

00:34:28.780 them?

00:34:29.660 That too looks

00:34:31.840 like more of

00:34:32.520 an Eisenhower

00:34:33.500 super useful

00:34:35.340 thing to

00:34:35.860 understand.

00:34:37.160 Because how

00:34:38.320 often have you

00:34:38.940 heard, you

00:34:39.780 know, hey,

00:34:40.200 the generals say

00:34:41.760 there's only one

00:34:42.340 way to handle

00:34:42.880 this and it

00:34:43.900 just happens to

00:34:44.620 be a military

00:34:45.200 answer.

00:34:46.560 I don't know.

00:34:47.240 I think these

00:34:48.980 are the two

00:34:49.440 best things the

00:34:50.180 president has

00:34:51.400 brought us.

00:34:52.020 Lack of trust

00:34:52.840 in the press,

00:34:53.980 lack of trust in

00:34:55.000 our own generals.

00:34:56.260 There's a reason

00:34:57.020 we have a civilian

00:34:58.000 leadership over the

00:35:00.460 military and we

00:35:01.300 can see it now.

00:35:03.560 Steve Cortez

00:35:04.600 tweeted that

00:35:06.040 deranged Don

00:35:07.320 Lemon threatens

00:35:08.060 to, quote,

00:35:08.700 blow up the

00:35:09.220 entire system,

00:35:10.240 including the

00:35:11.300 electoral college

00:35:12.320 and stacking the

00:35:13.220 court.

00:35:13.840 I love deranged.

00:35:14.900 Deranged Don

00:35:16.820 Lemon.

00:35:17.440 There are very

00:35:18.020 few words that

00:35:18.980 fit so perfectly

00:35:20.000 because, you

00:35:21.120 know, if you

00:35:21.500 say Don Lemon,

00:35:22.480 any other insults

00:35:23.620 like, oh, he's

00:35:24.480 dumb or he's

00:35:25.720 whatever, biased

00:35:26.780 or whatever,

00:35:27.300 there's no other

00:35:28.040 word that would

00:35:28.580 fit quite as well

00:35:29.660 as deranged.

00:35:32.340 When you watch

00:35:33.220 Don Lemon, that

00:35:34.480 is the word that

00:35:35.200 jumps into your

00:35:35.940 mind when you're

00:35:36.840 watching him.

00:35:37.400 You're thinking,

00:35:38.280 well, he's

00:35:38.740 clearly smart.

00:35:40.480 He's clearly

00:35:41.320 talented.

00:35:43.080 But what's

00:35:43.820 going on here?

00:35:44.900 There's something

00:35:45.720 deranged happening

00:35:46.960 here.

00:35:50.100 So when we're

00:35:51.460 talking about

00:35:52.000 everything being

00:35:52.740 on the table,

00:35:54.140 it's really

00:35:55.200 getting interesting,

00:35:56.260 the world of

00:35:56.760 politics, because

00:35:58.160 I think the

00:35:59.120 idea of stacking

00:35:59.940 the court went

00:36:01.280 from a ridiculous

00:36:02.460 idea to, yeah,

00:36:04.020 that could happen.

00:36:05.720 Stacking the

00:36:06.420 court looks like a

00:36:07.200 real thing that

00:36:07.800 would definitely

00:36:08.280 happen if Biden

00:36:09.040 got elected.

00:36:10.060 I would say if

00:36:11.060 Biden got elected,

00:36:12.180 the odds of the

00:36:13.060 court being stacked

00:36:14.060 are close to

00:36:15.440 100%.

00:36:16.460 It went from

00:36:18.120 like a wild

00:36:18.900 idea to, yeah,

00:36:19.820 probably.

00:36:21.080 How about

00:36:21.640 getting rid of

00:36:22.240 the electoral

00:36:22.740 college?

00:36:23.720 I don't know

00:36:24.340 what's involved

00:36:24.980 with that.

00:36:25.680 Does that

00:36:26.020 require a

00:36:26.880 constitutional

00:36:27.440 change?

00:36:29.040 But I think

00:36:29.820 they're quite

00:36:30.260 serious about

00:36:30.980 that too.

00:36:32.160 And I don't

00:36:32.600 think that was

00:36:33.140 serious, as

00:36:34.380 serious in

00:36:34.960 prior years.

00:36:36.060 And then

00:36:36.620 here's the

00:36:37.160 most fun part

00:36:38.020 of the

00:36:39.280 bare-knuckled

00:36:40.040 politics that's

00:36:41.040 going on.

00:36:43.120 So Nadler

00:36:45.060 wanted to

00:36:46.760 require these

00:36:48.520 Department of

00:36:49.580 Justice people

00:36:50.120 to come in

00:36:50.620 and testify,

00:36:51.840 and the

00:36:52.400 Department of

00:36:53.000 Justice rejected

00:36:54.880 it.

00:36:55.720 So the

00:36:56.340 Department of

00:36:57.000 Justice

00:36:57.500 publicly rejected

00:36:59.500 Nadler's

00:37:00.260 request for

00:37:00.920 testimony because

00:37:02.260 of the way

00:37:02.840 they treated

00:37:03.340 Bill Barr,

00:37:04.460 and they

00:37:04.820 didn't wait

00:37:06.340 for his

00:37:06.720 answers.

00:37:07.760 So because

00:37:08.260 they didn't

00:37:08.860 let Bill

00:37:09.460 Barr speak,

00:37:11.240 they can

00:37:11.960 completely

00:37:12.940 legitimately

00:37:13.600 say,

00:37:14.960 yeah, if

00:37:15.680 Congress

00:37:16.440 wanted us

00:37:17.060 to testify,

00:37:18.780 like actually

00:37:19.520 give you

00:37:20.020 answers,

00:37:20.980 sure, that

00:37:22.340 would be

00:37:22.800 perfectly

00:37:23.220 appropriate.

00:37:24.240 But now

00:37:24.700 we know,

00:37:25.500 we know with

00:37:26.740 certainty,

00:37:27.500 that that's

00:37:27.940 not the

00:37:28.320 plan because

00:37:29.460 of what you

00:37:29.920 did with

00:37:30.280 Barr.

00:37:31.080 So I think

00:37:31.860 the Department

00:37:32.360 of Justice

00:37:32.820 is on

00:37:33.400 completely

00:37:34.000 firm ground

00:37:34.900 just saying,

00:37:36.340 yes, I

00:37:38.760 would of

00:37:39.120 course comply

00:37:40.280 with a

00:37:41.160 request from

00:37:41.840 Congress to

00:37:42.520 testify if

00:37:43.880 it were a

00:37:44.500 real request,

00:37:45.760 but it's

00:37:46.440 not.

00:37:47.400 They can

00:37:48.080 actually argue

00:37:49.140 that it's

00:37:50.140 just not a

00:37:50.780 real request,

00:37:52.140 and it's a

00:37:52.760 perfectly strong

00:37:53.560 argument because

00:37:54.320 of how they

00:37:55.240 were treated

00:37:55.600 last time.

00:37:56.920 So watching

00:37:57.880 how things

00:37:59.060 that used

00:37:59.700 to be

00:38:00.340 completely

00:38:01.520 unimaginable,

00:38:03.780 you couldn't

00:38:04.380 imagine the

00:38:05.020 Department of

00:38:05.560 Justice saying,

00:38:06.060 no, no,

00:38:07.320 we don't

00:38:07.700 think you'll

00:38:08.100 play fair,

00:38:08.620 so we're

00:38:08.880 just not

00:38:09.200 coming.

00:38:10.200 Just

00:38:10.480 unimaginable,

00:38:11.580 and now

00:38:11.840 it's all

00:38:12.260 imaginable.

00:38:13.500 You can

00:38:13.960 imagine every

00:38:14.560 bit of this

00:38:15.000 happening.

00:38:17.560 My

00:38:18.040 smartest

00:38:19.160 Democrat

00:38:19.620 friend that

00:38:20.660 I talk

00:38:21.020 about all

00:38:21.360 the time

00:38:21.720 because I

00:38:22.140 debate with

00:38:22.820 him on

00:38:23.160 Trump stuff,

00:38:24.520 his latest

00:38:26.120 outrage,

00:38:28.020 and he

00:38:28.620 thought this

00:38:29.080 was just

00:38:29.560 beyond the

00:38:30.260 pale.

00:38:31.240 This was

00:38:31.800 one of the

00:38:32.200 big things

00:38:32.680 that we

00:38:32.980 should be

00:38:33.340 worrying about.

00:38:34.080 if you're

00:38:35.720 looking at

00:38:36.220 the

00:38:36.840 coronavirus

00:38:37.360 or global

00:38:39.640 warming or

00:38:40.560 the economy,

00:38:42.100 those, oh

00:38:42.800 sure, those

00:38:43.340 are important

00:38:43.840 too, but

00:38:45.200 this is the

00:38:45.960 thing, oh,

00:38:46.720 this is the

00:38:47.340 thing, that

00:38:48.460 really, we

00:38:49.500 need to focus

00:38:50.140 on this, and

00:38:51.660 it was that

00:38:53.140 Trump doubted

00:38:54.320 that Ginsburg's

00:38:55.720 dying wish was

00:38:57.340 exactly as

00:38:58.200 stated.

00:38:58.500 that's it.

00:39:00.840 That was an

00:39:01.700 outrage.

00:39:02.720 It was an

00:39:03.300 outrage that

00:39:04.020 President Trump

00:39:04.820 would doubt

00:39:05.580 the veracity

00:39:06.520 of Ginsburg's

00:39:08.640 final wish that

00:39:09.840 she be replaced

00:39:10.840 by the next

00:39:11.380 president.

00:39:12.420 Now, first

00:39:13.440 of all, every

00:39:14.900 one of you

00:39:15.520 doubted that.

00:39:17.120 Every one of

00:39:18.320 you, the

00:39:19.020 moment you

00:39:19.580 heard the

00:39:20.860 words of

00:39:21.980 her final

00:39:23.660 deathbed

00:39:24.240 request, the

00:39:25.640 moment you

00:39:26.360 heard it, be

00:39:27.840 honest, you

00:39:29.080 said to

00:39:29.480 yourself, I'm

00:39:30.820 not so sure.

00:39:33.200 Maybe.

00:39:34.360 It could be.

00:39:35.660 I'm not saying

00:39:36.580 it didn't

00:39:37.140 happen, but

00:39:38.720 I'm a little

00:39:39.520 bit skeptical

00:39:40.260 that it's a

00:39:40.980 little bit too

00:39:41.720 much on the

00:39:42.400 nose, if you

00:39:43.100 know what I

00:39:43.520 mean.

00:39:45.240 And anyway,

00:39:47.240 the reason I

00:39:47.680 point this out

00:39:48.260 is that if

00:39:49.580 you start with

00:39:50.780 what are the

00:39:51.240 most important

00:39:51.980 things that you

00:39:52.780 hate Trump

00:39:53.320 for if you're

00:39:54.000 a Trump

00:39:54.300 hater, and

00:39:55.460 you debunk

00:39:56.620 them, you

00:39:57.820 end up

00:39:58.300 down with

00:39:59.420 little stuff

00:40:00.020 like this,

00:40:00.860 well, but

00:40:01.600 what about

00:40:02.060 that tweet?

00:40:03.440 How about

00:40:03.880 that?

00:40:04.780 What about

00:40:05.200 that tweet?

00:40:06.560 That's it.

00:40:07.880 I mean, that

00:40:08.260 really reveals

00:40:09.260 that what's

00:40:10.020 going on is

00:40:10.800 like an

00:40:11.180 emotional

00:40:11.800 response to

00:40:13.380 the president.

00:40:14.000 It has

00:40:14.100 nothing to do

00:40:14.880 with his

00:40:15.200 policies, has

00:40:16.460 nothing to do

00:40:17.160 with what he

00:40:17.440 does or

00:40:17.960 doesn't do,

00:40:18.940 has nothing to

00:40:19.720 do with his

00:40:20.160 priorities.

00:40:21.200 They just

00:40:21.720 don't like

00:40:22.280 this guy.

00:40:23.840 And it comes

00:40:24.680 out in a lot

00:40:25.240 of different

00:40:25.560 ways.

00:40:25.860 All right.

00:40:30.580 Well, what

00:40:31.460 else is going

00:40:32.000 on?

00:40:35.920 Did you see

00:40:36.960 that Joel

00:40:38.180 Pollack pointed

00:40:39.020 out in a

00:40:39.700 tweet that

00:40:41.120 Biden was

00:40:42.200 wearing his

00:40:42.840 mask for a

00:40:44.340 Zoom interview?

00:40:45.900 That's right.

00:40:46.820 He was all

00:40:47.420 alone on a

00:40:49.900 Zoom call, and

00:40:51.280 he wore his

00:40:51.820 mask the entire

00:40:52.740 time.

00:40:54.160 Now, what's

00:40:55.520 that mean?

00:40:56.540 Does it mean

00:40:57.100 he's trying to

00:40:57.700 be a good

00:40:58.240 role model?

00:41:00.200 So, thanks

00:41:01.680 to Joe

00:41:02.220 Biden, would

00:41:03.500 you be more

00:41:04.180 likely to wear

00:41:05.000 your mask during

00:41:06.020 a Zoom call?

00:41:07.180 Because he

00:41:07.800 did.

00:41:08.500 Because that's

00:41:08.960 how it works,

00:41:09.520 right?

00:41:10.000 You see

00:41:10.620 somebody like

00:41:11.240 Biden or

00:41:11.880 Trump, depending

00:41:12.880 on who you

00:41:13.440 imagine is your

00:41:14.320 role model, and

00:41:15.420 then you sort

00:41:15.900 of copy them.

00:41:16.820 That's what I've

00:41:17.300 been told.

00:41:18.800 So, would

00:41:19.700 we not expect

00:41:20.460 to see lots of

00:41:21.200 Democrats wearing

00:41:22.120 a face mask

00:41:23.020 all alone

00:41:24.420 on a Zoom

00:41:25.900 call, right?

00:41:29.200 So, but,

00:41:31.940 let me suggest

00:41:33.720 there might be

00:41:35.480 at least one

00:41:36.240 other reason he

00:41:37.000 might wear a

00:41:37.620 mask all by

00:41:39.080 himself on a

00:41:39.900 Zoom call.

00:41:41.140 Did you see

00:41:41.720 his little

00:41:43.340 speech yesterday?

00:41:45.500 He looked

00:41:46.440 so sick

00:41:48.220 and weak

00:41:49.560 when he

00:41:50.840 went up to

00:41:51.400 give his

00:41:51.740 speech yesterday

00:41:52.440 live?

00:41:53.080 Not the

00:41:53.740 Zoom call,

00:41:54.340 but when he

00:41:54.700 gave a, I

00:41:55.960 guess there

00:41:56.320 must have

00:41:56.960 been a few

00:41:57.320 people there.

00:41:58.940 He seemed

00:41:59.780 very sickly

00:42:00.680 and weak,

00:42:01.860 but he also

00:42:02.640 coughed, and

00:42:04.660 he also wore

00:42:05.440 his mask,

00:42:06.260 although he

00:42:06.760 was quite a

00:42:07.440 ways away

00:42:07.880 from the

00:42:08.260 people he

00:42:08.640 was talking

00:42:09.100 to.

00:42:10.440 Now, you

00:42:12.940 know this

00:42:13.440 simulation has

00:42:15.980 the obvious

00:42:17.300 trick waiting.

00:42:18.640 saying, if

00:42:19.420 you were a

00:42:19.860 bad script

00:42:20.620 writer and

00:42:21.260 you were

00:42:21.480 going to

00:42:21.700 write,

00:42:22.480 all right,

00:42:23.100 what happens

00:42:23.780 next in

00:42:24.520 this movie

00:42:25.240 that we're

00:42:25.760 watching called

00:42:26.540 Life, of

00:42:27.980 course you

00:42:29.040 would give

00:42:29.500 Biden

00:42:29.920 coronavirus.

00:42:31.460 Is there

00:42:31.960 any doubt

00:42:32.700 that if you

00:42:34.260 were the

00:42:34.580 writer of

00:42:35.180 this simulation,

00:42:36.980 you would

00:42:37.440 give Biden

00:42:38.560 coronavirus?

00:42:39.900 Now, as a

00:42:41.280 human being, I

00:42:42.180 hope he does

00:42:42.720 not get it.

00:42:44.220 I don't want

00:42:44.960 anybody to get

00:42:45.640 the coronavirus.

00:42:46.760 I would not

00:42:47.500 be happy if

00:42:48.840 Joe Biden gets

00:42:49.520 the coronavirus

00:42:49.980 because he

00:42:50.460 would be

00:42:50.720 seriously at

00:42:51.480 risk.

00:42:52.260 He would be

00:42:52.680 more at risk

00:42:53.360 than the

00:42:53.680 average person

00:42:54.300 because of

00:42:54.660 age.

00:42:55.560 So, let me

00:42:56.660 be clear,

00:42:57.660 there would

00:42:58.080 be nothing

00:42:58.640 funny about

00:42:59.380 this.

00:43:00.300 If somebody

00:43:00.960 his age gets

00:43:01.780 the coronavirus,

00:43:02.720 that is deadly

00:43:03.440 serious, doesn't

00:43:04.620 matter who it

00:43:05.060 is, right?

00:43:05.620 So we're going

00:43:06.040 to take that

00:43:06.400 seriously.

00:43:07.500 But, you

00:43:08.940 know the

00:43:10.260 simulation wants

00:43:11.260 to give him

00:43:11.800 coronavirus.

00:43:12.300 because it's

00:43:13.840 just the way

00:43:14.420 the story

00:43:14.980 works best.

00:43:17.800 You know,

00:43:18.080 tragic as it

00:43:18.920 would be.

00:43:20.480 It would be

00:43:21.240 the way to

00:43:21.660 get Kamala

00:43:22.420 in there

00:43:22.900 gracefully,

00:43:24.260 et cetera.

00:43:25.240 But, let's

00:43:26.300 hope that

00:43:26.620 doesn't happen.

00:43:27.960 But, man,

00:43:29.180 the hints.

00:43:30.740 The hints

00:43:31.880 are incredible.

00:43:33.440 Oh, true

00:43:34.140 story.

00:43:36.080 I was

00:43:37.040 talking to

00:43:38.020 my doctor

00:43:38.440 about some

00:43:38.940 blood pressure

00:43:39.780 meds.

00:43:41.180 So I'm

00:43:41.720 testing some

00:43:42.660 meds for my

00:43:43.900 blood pressure.

00:43:44.640 I'm at that

00:43:45.080 age.

00:43:45.980 It's genetic

00:43:46.880 in my case.

00:43:47.660 My lifestyle

00:43:48.180 is sort of

00:43:49.120 perfectly suited

00:43:50.140 for not

00:43:51.460 getting high

00:43:51.940 blood pressure.

00:43:53.300 But it's

00:43:54.280 genetic, so

00:43:55.080 it caught up

00:43:56.420 to me.

00:43:57.220 And one of

00:43:57.920 the choices

00:43:58.680 for blood

00:43:59.300 pressure meds

00:43:59.960 is that there's

00:44:00.780 one of them

00:44:01.240 that works

00:44:01.640 really well,

00:44:02.460 but has a

00:44:03.160 weird side

00:44:03.680 effect, which

00:44:04.760 is it can

00:44:05.280 give you a

00:44:05.780 dry cough.

00:44:07.620 And my

00:44:08.240 doctor's

00:44:08.740 explaining,

00:44:09.380 well, there's

00:44:10.000 this one that

00:44:10.740 does this,

00:44:11.460 and there's

00:44:12.160 this one, but

00:44:12.880 the downside is

00:44:13.860 it'll give you

00:44:14.320 a dry cough.

00:44:15.660 And I'm like,

00:44:16.280 stop.

00:44:17.820 Let's never

00:44:18.560 talk about that

00:44:19.300 one again.

00:44:20.500 Because if there

00:44:21.680 ever was a

00:44:22.420 time to not

00:44:24.080 take a medicine

00:44:24.840 that gives you

00:44:25.780 a dry cough,

00:44:26.960 it would be

00:44:27.800 right now.

00:44:28.380 because I

00:44:30.120 would rather

00:44:30.540 die of a

00:44:31.040 heart attack

00:44:31.600 than walk

00:44:32.640 around in

00:44:33.100 public with

00:44:34.260 a dry cough

00:44:35.140 during the

00:44:35.840 coronavirus

00:44:36.240 pandemic.

00:44:37.380 I don't

00:44:38.000 need that.

00:44:39.000 So give me

00:44:39.780 anything else

00:44:40.900 that doesn't

00:44:41.720 cause a dry

00:44:42.540 cough.

00:44:43.940 So it could

00:44:44.840 be that,

00:44:45.440 you know,

00:44:46.080 Biden is on

00:44:47.000 some meds to

00:44:47.700 give him a

00:44:48.080 dry cough,

00:44:48.800 or it was

00:44:49.800 just an

00:44:50.180 ordinary cough.

00:44:51.900 But it

00:44:52.320 certainly makes

00:44:53.720 us look.

00:44:55.560 Let's talk

00:44:56.320 about all

00:44:56.740 of the

00:44:57.100 hoaxes.

00:45:00.360 Did you see

00:45:00.880 the hoax?

00:45:01.840 I'll call it

00:45:02.640 a hoax.

00:45:03.700 It's fake

00:45:04.800 news, let's

00:45:05.460 call it.

00:45:06.320 There was a

00:45:06.880 report that

00:45:07.560 the Nashville

00:45:08.440 mayor's office

00:45:09.640 was trying

00:45:10.940 to keep

00:45:13.740 a secret

00:45:14.340 that the

00:45:15.820 opening of

00:45:16.560 the bars

00:45:17.060 did not

00:45:18.220 cause much

00:45:19.220 extra

00:45:19.680 infection.

00:45:21.000 It turns

00:45:21.400 out that

00:45:21.860 that was

00:45:22.160 never true,

00:45:23.180 that this

00:45:23.520 was public

00:45:24.160 knowledge,

00:45:25.140 and the

00:45:26.500 story as

00:45:27.380 reported,

00:45:28.240 I think

00:45:28.560 Fox News

00:45:29.240 reported it

00:45:29.860 a few

00:45:30.060 times,

00:45:30.860 just wasn't

00:45:32.080 true.

00:45:33.300 Now,

00:45:34.260 a lot of

00:45:34.760 people sent

00:45:35.300 me that

00:45:35.660 story and

00:45:36.340 said,

00:45:37.140 Scott,

00:45:37.560 look at

00:45:37.800 this,

00:45:38.620 Nashville,

00:45:39.640 Nashville is

00:45:40.320 hiding the

00:45:40.880 fact that

00:45:42.060 opening the

00:45:42.560 bars didn't

00:45:43.140 make any

00:45:43.540 difference to

00:45:44.220 infection or

00:45:44.860 very little

00:45:45.340 difference.

00:45:45.720 I saw

00:45:47.000 that and

00:45:47.440 I said

00:45:47.760 to myself,

00:45:49.140 I'm going

00:45:49.840 to wait.

00:45:51.540 I'm going

00:45:52.180 to wait on

00:45:52.900 this.

00:45:53.700 Do you

00:45:53.920 know why?

00:45:55.880 Because it

00:45:56.600 didn't look

00:45:57.140 real to me.

00:45:58.480 Do you know

00:45:58.940 why it didn't

00:45:59.520 look real?

00:46:00.460 It was lacking

00:46:01.600 context and it

00:46:03.060 was a little

00:46:03.480 bit too on

00:46:04.600 the nose.

00:46:05.960 If you see

00:46:06.780 those two

00:46:07.400 things,

00:46:08.480 hey, I

00:46:09.120 don't see the

00:46:10.100 full context

00:46:11.020 and it's a

00:46:12.960 little too

00:46:13.320 perfect,

00:46:14.040 a little too

00:46:14.540 perfect, you

00:46:16.260 should wait.

00:46:17.740 So I'm

00:46:19.340 going to pat

00:46:19.720 myself on

00:46:20.260 the back

00:46:20.780 because the

00:46:21.760 moment I

00:46:22.260 saw that

00:46:22.680 story, I

00:46:23.240 said, I

00:46:25.440 don't know

00:46:25.920 if I trust

00:46:26.660 that one.

00:46:27.700 That's got

00:46:28.200 those two

00:46:28.820 tells, not

00:46:30.120 enough context

00:46:31.040 and it's a

00:46:32.720 little too

00:46:33.120 perfect.

00:46:34.040 So I

00:46:34.560 waited and

00:46:35.940 sure enough,

00:46:36.340 it turned out

00:46:36.800 not to be

00:46:37.440 true because

00:46:39.380 that information

00:46:40.280 had already

00:46:40.760 been public,

00:46:41.360 I guess.

00:46:42.200 So I bet

00:46:42.620 it was

00:46:42.940 withdrawn by

00:46:43.840 the local

00:46:44.620 news group

00:46:45.420 that put

00:46:45.720 it out.

00:46:46.700 All right,

00:46:47.040 here's two

00:46:47.620 more Biden

00:46:48.940 hoaxes.

00:46:50.440 Did you

00:46:50.700 see the

00:46:51.060 video in

00:46:51.780 which Biden

00:46:52.520 appeared to

00:46:54.080 forget the

00:46:54.840 words of

00:46:55.500 the Pledge of

00:46:56.560 Allegiance?

00:46:57.220 Did you see

00:46:57.600 that on

00:46:58.020 Twitter?

00:46:59.280 A lot of

00:46:59.900 people were

00:47:00.220 tweeting around,

00:47:00.940 it looked like

00:47:01.480 Biden started

00:47:02.780 the Pledge of

00:47:03.380 Allegiance and

00:47:04.080 then forgot

00:47:04.680 the words and

00:47:05.540 then changed

00:47:06.080 the subject.

00:47:08.320 That was

00:47:09.040 just fake

00:47:09.540 news, just

00:47:10.980 a hoax.

00:47:12.940 What you

00:47:14.060 thought happened

00:47:14.820 didn't happen.

00:47:16.340 He was

00:47:16.780 talking about

00:47:17.560 the first few

00:47:18.740 words of the

00:47:19.280 Pledge of

00:47:19.640 Allegiance, but

00:47:20.780 that's all he

00:47:21.360 was doing.

00:47:22.300 He was just

00:47:22.960 talking about

00:47:23.620 the first

00:47:24.100 words of the

00:47:24.820 Pledge of

00:47:25.180 Allegiance and

00:47:26.140 then he made

00:47:26.600 a point about

00:47:27.200 that.

00:47:27.980 That's it.

00:47:28.960 He never

00:47:29.440 forgot the

00:47:30.000 words to the

00:47:30.580 Pledge of

00:47:30.940 Allegiance, it

00:47:31.720 just didn't

00:47:32.140 happen.

00:47:33.040 It's the same

00:47:33.660 way they make

00:47:34.200 fake news about

00:47:34.920 President Trump,

00:47:36.200 you just

00:47:36.660 truncate the

00:47:37.720 news so that

00:47:38.500 you can't tell

00:47:39.000 what the

00:47:39.260 context was.

00:47:40.940 Then the

00:47:43.040 other fake

00:47:44.700 news, this

00:47:45.720 one is still

00:47:46.200 going around

00:47:46.780 by the way,

00:47:47.360 most of you

00:47:47.880 think this is

00:47:48.480 real, this is

00:47:49.320 obvious fake

00:47:49.940 news.

00:47:52.040 He was doing

00:47:52.820 an interview

00:47:53.460 with a

00:47:53.880 Telemundo

00:47:54.340 guy, so

00:47:55.020 he's in

00:47:55.340 the room,

00:47:56.480 Telemundo

00:47:56.940 guy is here,

00:47:58.240 but Biden

00:47:58.840 apparently was

00:47:59.860 reading what

00:48:01.020 people thought

00:48:02.020 was his

00:48:03.140 answers to

00:48:03.880 the questions

00:48:04.420 off a

00:48:05.220 teleprompter

00:48:05.860 and in

00:48:06.820 fact he

00:48:07.540 gave it

00:48:08.560 away by

00:48:09.000 saying, he

00:48:10.740 said, I

00:48:11.160 lost that

00:48:11.720 last line.

00:48:13.160 So Biden,

00:48:14.000 instead of

00:48:14.460 looking at

00:48:14.920 the interviewer,

00:48:15.840 he's looking

00:48:16.320 to the

00:48:16.700 side and

00:48:18.000 he's answering

00:48:18.520 the question

00:48:18.980 and he

00:48:19.160 goes, I

00:48:19.780 lost that

00:48:20.640 last line.

00:48:22.420 So the

00:48:23.000 fake news,

00:48:24.280 the hoax,

00:48:25.280 is that his

00:48:25.960 answers were

00:48:26.760 on a

00:48:27.060 teleprompter,

00:48:28.140 the teleprompter

00:48:29.040 got out of

00:48:29.800 whack and

00:48:31.120 he was telling

00:48:31.740 the teleprompter

00:48:32.580 person to put

00:48:34.220 his answer

00:48:34.760 back there

00:48:35.300 because he

00:48:36.140 was so

00:48:36.480 incompetent that

00:48:37.500 he needed to

00:48:38.060 read his

00:48:38.640 answers.

00:48:39.660 And then

00:48:39.900 the interviewer

00:48:42.400 said, Jose

00:48:43.360 said, we

00:48:46.220 can talk

00:48:46.760 you and

00:48:47.120 I on

00:48:47.500 that.

00:48:47.980 So he

00:48:48.360 told Biden

00:48:49.020 to talk

00:48:50.200 to him.

00:48:51.180 He says, we

00:48:51.900 can talk you

00:48:52.560 and I on

00:48:53.020 that.

00:48:53.960 Here's what

00:48:54.640 actually happened

00:48:55.600 if you see

00:48:56.480 the larger

00:48:56.960 context.

00:48:58.240 The screen

00:48:58.760 was not a

00:48:59.620 teleprompter.

00:49:00.500 The screen

00:49:01.040 was a

00:49:02.560 citizen asking

00:49:03.560 a question.

00:49:05.060 And so he

00:49:05.760 was looking at

00:49:06.320 the citizen

00:49:06.840 asking a

00:49:07.500 question on

00:49:08.060 the other

00:49:08.400 screen instead

00:49:09.620 of looking at

00:49:10.220 the interviewer

00:49:10.960 because that's

00:49:12.300 what he's

00:49:12.560 supposed to

00:49:12.940 do.

00:49:13.520 There's

00:49:13.740 somebody on

00:49:14.180 the screen

00:49:14.560 asking him

00:49:15.120 a question.

00:49:15.600 So he

00:49:15.800 looked at

00:49:16.160 it.

00:49:17.100 That's the

00:49:17.700 first part.

00:49:18.760 Secondly, it

00:49:20.280 looks to me

00:49:21.100 that the

00:49:21.560 context was,

00:49:22.840 and I might

00:49:23.240 have this

00:49:23.600 wrong, but

00:49:24.620 certainly the

00:49:26.040 major part of

00:49:26.700 it I have

00:49:27.020 right, it

00:49:27.980 looked to me

00:49:28.460 like maybe he

00:49:29.300 missed the

00:49:30.160 question when

00:49:31.140 he said,

00:49:32.040 what was the

00:49:33.180 last line or

00:49:33.880 I missed the

00:49:34.300 last line.

00:49:34.880 It was the

00:49:35.720 last line of

00:49:36.320 the question.

00:49:37.620 It wasn't the

00:49:38.180 last line of

00:49:38.940 his alleged

00:49:39.440 answer that's

00:49:40.220 written on a

00:49:40.700 teleprompter.

00:49:41.840 Complete fake

00:49:42.620 news, right?

00:49:43.620 Now, the

00:49:44.280 reason that I

00:49:44.820 point out all

00:49:45.760 of these fake

00:49:46.460 news is that

00:49:47.760 these were

00:49:48.260 fakes on the

00:49:49.080 conservative

00:49:49.500 side.

00:49:50.600 These are

00:49:51.680 conservatives

00:49:52.800 hoaxing

00:49:53.660 themselves,

00:49:54.640 basically,

00:49:56.280 because all

00:49:56.860 of these came

00:49:57.440 from conservatives.

00:49:58.820 They hoaxed

00:49:59.660 themselves and

00:50:00.880 tried to hoax

00:50:01.500 other people at

00:50:02.200 the same time.

00:50:02.820 those are

00:50:04.160 three pretty

00:50:04.820 big hoaxes.

00:50:06.440 All right?

00:50:07.000 Three pretty

00:50:07.800 big hoaxes.

00:50:09.360 And if you

00:50:10.380 didn't notice

00:50:11.580 them immediately,

00:50:13.020 you need to

00:50:13.960 tune your

00:50:14.940 filter.

00:50:16.400 I would say

00:50:17.260 that all of

00:50:20.420 these were

00:50:20.800 obvious to me.

00:50:22.660 From the

00:50:23.640 first moment

00:50:24.460 any of those

00:50:25.300 three fake

00:50:26.160 news has

00:50:26.600 happened, as

00:50:27.300 soon as I

00:50:27.680 saw them, I

00:50:28.200 said, well,

00:50:29.080 that's not

00:50:29.600 buying that.

00:50:31.760 somebody's

00:50:35.940 saying in

00:50:36.260 the comments,

00:50:36.880 you said

00:50:37.300 this was

00:50:37.840 fair game.

00:50:38.980 It's totally

00:50:39.720 fair.

00:50:40.760 Yeah.

00:50:41.440 It's fake

00:50:42.200 news, but

00:50:44.340 somebody said,

00:50:45.060 hey, you

00:50:45.440 said it was

00:50:45.820 fair because

00:50:46.460 the other

00:50:46.900 side is

00:50:47.280 lying.

00:50:47.720 Yeah, it

00:50:48.060 is.

00:50:48.700 It is

00:50:49.240 completely

00:50:49.640 fair, but

00:50:50.840 I don't

00:50:51.080 want you to

00:50:51.680 be fooled.

00:50:53.400 Right?

00:50:54.340 I don't

00:50:54.960 want you to

00:50:55.540 be fooled.

00:50:56.720 I want you

00:50:57.360 to have

00:50:57.680 actual useful

00:50:58.580 information that

00:51:00.100 informs your

00:51:00.940 world, but

00:51:01.960 yeah, it's

00:51:02.360 totally fair.

00:51:03.480 We are in

00:51:04.120 a contest

00:51:04.720 where lying

00:51:06.020 is the

00:51:06.620 rules.

00:51:07.940 Lying does

00:51:08.480 not break

00:51:09.080 the rules.

00:51:10.420 Lying is

00:51:10.940 the game.

00:51:12.200 That's what a

00:51:13.020 political ad

00:51:13.680 is.

00:51:13.940 It's a bunch

00:51:14.320 of lies.

00:51:15.420 If you

00:51:15.840 imagine that

00:51:16.460 it's even

00:51:16.880 trying to

00:51:17.360 be the

00:51:17.660 truth, you

00:51:18.220 don't

00:51:18.420 understand

00:51:18.840 it.

00:51:21.920 George

00:51:22.400 Papadopoulos

00:51:23.460 tweeted

00:51:24.040 this.

00:51:24.580 He said

00:51:24.940 this drive

00:51:26.200 to combat

00:51:26.760 human

00:51:27.200 trafficking

00:51:27.760 out of

00:51:28.140 the DOJ

00:51:28.880 should be

00:51:30.120 nationally

00:51:30.760 and globally

00:51:31.700 applauded.

00:51:32.820 This is a

00:51:33.280 serious issue.

00:51:35.200 One of

00:51:36.000 my

00:51:36.380 subscribers

00:51:38.060 on Locals,

00:51:39.360 Locals is

00:51:40.080 the platform

00:51:40.700 that I do

00:51:41.940 some of the

00:51:42.380 stuff that I

00:51:42.900 don't do in

00:51:43.360 public, the

00:51:44.420 edgier stuff,

00:51:45.700 and other

00:51:46.220 content that

00:51:47.340 I do a lot

00:51:48.200 of micro

00:51:48.620 lessons on

00:51:49.360 success and

00:51:50.920 persuasion,

00:51:51.800 et cetera,

00:51:52.140 over there.

00:51:53.580 Somebody on

00:51:54.340 Locals,

00:51:55.280 and that's a

00:51:56.180 subscription site,

00:51:57.360 Locals.com,

00:51:58.400 if you're

00:51:58.640 looking for it,

00:51:59.240 said that

00:52:01.500 I'm not

00:52:01.920 doing enough

00:52:02.600 talking about

00:52:03.580 what the

00:52:05.100 government is

00:52:05.660 doing battling

00:52:06.320 trafficking and

00:52:07.640 child, I

00:52:09.360 guess, child

00:52:09.820 trafficking and

00:52:10.560 sex trafficking,

00:52:11.440 et cetera.

00:52:12.180 And I agree

00:52:13.280 with that.

00:52:14.100 And for some

00:52:15.080 reason, it's not

00:52:15.780 making as much

00:52:17.080 news as you

00:52:18.080 think it should,

00:52:19.580 as George

00:52:20.680 Papadopoulos points

00:52:21.660 out.

00:52:22.820 And so

00:52:23.920 Ivanka Trump

00:52:25.100 tweeted that

00:52:26.060 AG Barr and

00:52:28.060 Ivanka announced

00:52:29.980 the largest

00:52:30.480 investment for

00:52:31.520 trafficking support

00:52:32.620 services in

00:52:33.380 U.S.

00:52:33.740 history, over

00:52:34.320 $100 million in

00:52:35.200 grants.

00:52:36.320 So this is

00:52:37.680 one of those

00:52:38.280 things that the

00:52:39.120 president is not

00:52:40.040 getting nearly

00:52:40.780 enough credit

00:52:42.120 for.

00:52:42.880 This is one of

00:52:43.520 the best things

00:52:44.400 a president ever

00:52:45.240 did.

00:52:46.120 He's just

00:52:46.520 going totally

00:52:48.220 Viking on

00:52:50.300 these fucking,

00:52:51.160 I'm sorry,

00:52:51.660 didn't mean to

00:52:54.340 swear.

00:52:55.280 The president

00:52:56.180 is going

00:52:56.960 barbaric on

00:52:58.320 the traffickers.

00:52:59.600 And it looks

00:53:00.360 like they're just

00:53:00.920 pulling out all

00:53:01.560 the stops.

00:53:02.840 It looks like

00:53:03.520 they've decided,

00:53:05.160 like ISIS,

00:53:06.800 to me,

00:53:07.940 to me it looks

00:53:09.040 like what the

00:53:09.940 president is doing

00:53:10.880 for the sex

00:53:12.100 trafficking is

00:53:13.360 very similar to

00:53:14.480 what he did to

00:53:15.040 ISIS, which

00:53:16.280 is this.

00:53:18.200 What do we

00:53:18.780 need to do to

00:53:19.900 defeat ISIS?

00:53:21.660 Okay, now

00:53:23.220 we'll do it.

00:53:24.560 Right?

00:53:25.740 That's how

00:53:26.380 President Trump

00:53:27.800 defeated ISIS.

00:53:29.200 Tell me what we

00:53:29.880 need to do.

00:53:30.620 Okay, that's what

00:53:31.220 we need to do.

00:53:32.200 Okay, these are

00:53:33.800 your orders.

00:53:34.880 Do that.

00:53:36.800 I'm simplifying,

00:53:37.700 but that's basically

00:53:38.340 what it is.

00:53:39.420 With this

00:53:39.880 trafficking, it

00:53:40.620 looks like the

00:53:41.140 same thing.

00:53:42.040 Okay, what do

00:53:42.740 we need to do

00:53:43.460 to stop all this

00:53:44.720 trafficking, or at

00:53:45.560 least put a big

00:53:46.320 dent in it?

00:53:47.180 What do we need

00:53:47.740 to do?

00:53:48.020 Okay, that's what

00:53:49.220 we need to do.

00:53:50.460 I order you to

00:53:51.340 do that.

00:53:52.840 I don't know if

00:53:53.840 it's harder than

00:53:54.440 that, because it

00:53:55.600 seems to me that

00:53:56.420 the Department of

00:53:57.340 Justice probably

00:53:58.600 knew what to

00:53:59.480 do.

00:54:00.340 They just needed

00:54:01.380 the order and

00:54:02.220 the money and

00:54:02.980 the support,

00:54:04.680 same as the

00:54:05.440 military fighting

00:54:06.360 ISIS.

00:54:07.980 It's a gigantic

00:54:09.080 accomplishment, very

00:54:10.720 underappreciated.

00:54:11.640 state.

00:54:15.020 The Department, every

00:54:18.500 about my own

00:54:19.260 state, California,

00:54:21.060 it makes me laugh

00:54:22.280 because it's so

00:54:23.020 stupid.

00:54:25.220 The things that

00:54:26.240 we do in this

00:54:26.900 state are just

00:54:28.020 beyond parity

00:54:29.060 at this point.

00:54:30.500 So you know

00:54:31.080 that the

00:54:31.740 president said

00:54:32.540 he would

00:54:33.540 maybe reduce

00:54:35.840 federal funding

00:54:37.320 for states

00:54:39.100 that were

00:54:39.740 trying to

00:54:40.880 push the

00:54:41.500 1619

00:54:42.900 curriculum,

00:54:44.260 the anti-racist

00:54:46.180 curriculum that

00:54:47.460 in fact is

00:54:48.320 racist.

00:54:49.760 So the

00:54:50.380 California

00:54:50.760 Department of

00:54:51.340 Education,

00:54:51.760 they decided

00:54:53.820 to develop the

00:54:54.800 nation's first

00:54:55.820 statewide ethnic

00:54:57.520 studies curriculum.

00:54:58.720 So they're

00:55:00.120 going to make

00:55:00.460 ethnic studies

00:55:01.280 and anti-racism

00:55:03.180 a curriculum.

00:55:05.160 And Governor

00:55:06.020 Newsom is

00:55:06.580 heading it up

00:55:07.260 and blah, blah,

00:55:07.980 blah.

00:55:08.760 And another

00:55:09.760 bill signed

00:55:10.340 by Newsom

00:55:10.920 last month,

00:55:11.980 it would require

00:55:12.980 that all

00:55:13.520 undergraduate

00:55:14.180 students in

00:55:15.260 the California

00:55:15.940 State University

00:55:16.820 system complete

00:55:18.420 an ethnic

00:55:19.100 studies course

00:55:20.100 before graduation.

00:55:21.820 So it will

00:55:22.380 actually be

00:55:23.200 an ethnic

00:55:26.760 studies requirement

00:55:27.960 before graduation.

00:55:30.320 Now, let me

00:55:31.540 suggest a

00:55:32.320 better way to

00:55:32.920 go about

00:55:33.280 this.

00:55:33.680 There's a

00:55:34.160 general

00:55:34.540 principle or

00:55:37.080 rule about

00:55:38.200 the human

00:55:38.740 mind, that

00:55:40.460 whatever it

00:55:41.040 is you focus

00:55:41.760 on becomes

00:55:43.020 the most

00:55:43.620 important thing

00:55:44.300 to you.

00:55:45.220 So if the

00:55:45.740 only thing

00:55:46.280 you talk

00:55:47.500 about and

00:55:47.980 think about

00:55:48.460 is the

00:55:48.840 color red,

00:55:50.260 then everywhere

00:55:51.060 you go you're

00:55:51.740 going to be

00:55:51.960 noticing the

00:55:52.600 color red.

00:55:55.380 You've

00:55:55.940 noticed that

00:55:56.540 if you're in

00:55:57.420 a crowded

00:55:57.840 room and

00:55:58.480 there's

00:55:58.700 background

00:55:59.080 noise and

00:55:59.700 you can't

00:56:00.060 make out

00:56:00.380 any words,

00:56:01.080 but somebody

00:56:03.280 says your

00:56:03.760 name,

00:56:04.640 Scott,

00:56:06.420 you can

00:56:07.400 make out

00:56:07.820 your name

00:56:09.040 out of this

00:56:09.820 cacophony of

00:56:11.300 indistinct sound,

00:56:13.180 your name is

00:56:13.800 really clear.

00:56:15.060 And it's

00:56:15.300 because the

00:56:16.000 human brain

00:56:16.800 tunes itself

00:56:18.120 for whatever

00:56:19.240 you tune it

00:56:19.820 to.

00:56:20.560 That didn't

00:56:21.060 make sense.

00:56:21.740 But you can

00:56:22.160 tune your

00:56:22.560 brain to

00:56:24.100 focus on

00:56:25.040 whatever you

00:56:26.080 want.

00:56:27.000 By creating

00:56:27.920 a curriculum

00:56:28.680 and having

00:56:29.740 Black Lives

00:56:31.420 Matter being

00:56:32.140 a focus of

00:56:32.880 attention and

00:56:34.380 all this

00:56:34.880 focus on

00:56:35.800 the kneeling,

00:56:37.680 etc., we

00:56:39.060 have created

00:56:39.780 a situation

00:56:40.740 where race

00:56:42.080 is the

00:56:42.880 dominant

00:56:43.440 filter in

00:56:44.920 our environment.

00:56:46.260 Is that

00:56:46.940 good?

00:56:47.980 Is it

00:56:48.720 good that

00:56:49.720 we've put

00:56:50.880 front of

00:56:51.580 mind race?

00:56:53.640 Now, you

00:56:55.100 might think,

00:56:55.840 and I would

00:56:56.260 say that most

00:56:57.060 Democrats would

00:56:57.780 say, yeah,

00:56:58.720 that's good.

00:56:59.900 Totally good.

00:57:00.900 Because race is

00:57:01.580 such a big

00:57:02.140 thing.

00:57:02.980 It affects

00:57:03.480 everything all

00:57:04.380 the time.

00:57:05.080 It's everything

00:57:05.500 from employment

00:57:06.860 to fairness

00:57:07.680 to health

00:57:09.120 care.

00:57:09.840 I mean,

00:57:10.060 there's nothing

00:57:11.200 in our

00:57:11.600 environment that

00:57:12.800 doesn't have a

00:57:13.460 racial component

00:57:14.400 and it

00:57:15.260 matters.

00:57:16.300 It matters,

00:57:16.940 right?

00:57:17.320 So yes,

00:57:18.400 yes, we

00:57:18.940 should be

00:57:19.360 focusing on

00:57:20.400 race and

00:57:21.440 ethnicity.

00:57:22.840 But what if

00:57:23.500 we didn't?

00:57:25.480 I'll just put

00:57:26.160 this out here

00:57:26.780 as a what

00:57:28.280 if.

00:57:28.660 What if we

00:57:29.140 didn't?

00:57:30.000 What if we

00:57:30.620 took the

00:57:31.280 following approach

00:57:32.360 instead?

00:57:33.740 What if we

00:57:34.340 said the

00:57:34.820 filter that

00:57:35.560 matters is

00:57:36.540 responsibility?

00:57:38.620 That people

00:57:39.160 who take

00:57:39.660 responsibility

00:57:40.500 for their

00:57:41.740 own life,

00:57:42.460 as well as

00:57:43.240 their community,

00:57:45.080 that people

00:57:45.600 who take

00:57:46.060 responsibility

00:57:46.860 and do it

00:57:47.720 right,

00:57:48.340 they have a

00:57:48.860 strategy that

00:57:49.740 makes sense

00:57:50.320 for taking

00:57:51.220 responsibility,

00:57:52.240 are all on

00:57:53.140 the same

00:57:53.500 team.

00:57:55.180 And anybody

00:57:55.720 who doesn't

00:57:56.300 take responsibility

00:57:57.200 is on the

00:57:57.960 other team.

00:57:59.440 Suppose,

00:58:00.340 and you

00:58:00.740 could even

00:58:01.100 forget about

00:58:01.780 Democrat or

00:58:02.600 Republican.

00:58:03.420 There's nothing

00:58:04.160 about Democrat

00:58:04.920 or Republican

00:58:05.640 in any of

00:58:06.800 this that

00:58:08.440 is relevant.

00:58:10.960 There are

00:58:11.240 responsible

00:58:11.940 Democrats,

00:58:12.780 there are

00:58:13.040 responsible

00:58:13.640 Republicans,

00:58:14.620 and you

00:58:15.000 know who

00:58:15.420 you are,

00:58:16.360 right?

00:58:16.700 you know

00:58:17.660 who you

00:58:18.000 are,

00:58:18.300 and if

00:58:19.020 you as

00:58:19.920 a

00:58:20.040 responsible

00:58:20.620 Republican

00:58:21.660 have a

00:58:23.100 friend who

00:58:23.600 is a

00:58:23.880 responsible

00:58:24.520 Democrat,

00:58:25.300 do you

00:58:25.600 get along?

00:58:26.740 Yeah,

00:58:27.140 you do.

00:58:27.820 You do get

00:58:28.360 along,

00:58:28.900 because you're

00:58:29.760 both responsible.

00:58:31.160 That is the

00:58:32.020 dominant thing

00:58:32.820 that keeps

00:58:33.280 people together.

00:58:34.980 Do I think

00:58:36.020 that black

00:58:36.620 people should

00:58:37.580 organize for

00:58:39.320 political power

00:58:40.460 as a group?

00:58:42.380 That black

00:58:42.900 people should

00:58:43.560 be, you know,

00:58:44.400 we're all

00:58:44.740 together.

00:58:45.380 If you're

00:58:46.000 black, you

00:58:46.560 have a

00:58:46.820 common set

00:58:47.340 of problems,

00:58:48.200 so we

00:58:48.840 black people

00:58:49.440 need to

00:58:49.840 stick together,

00:58:50.820 have some

00:58:51.420 political power,

00:58:52.320 get some

00:58:52.680 stuff done.

00:58:53.880 Well, there

00:58:54.360 was a time

00:58:55.140 in our

00:58:56.200 history that

00:58:56.900 made perfect

00:58:57.680 sense.

00:58:58.700 You know, if

00:58:59.000 you looked at

00:58:59.480 the 60s, for

00:59:00.560 example, civil

00:59:01.300 rights, yeah,

00:59:03.200 yeah, because

00:59:03.880 if you were

00:59:04.340 black, you

00:59:05.740 were discriminated

00:59:07.260 against just

00:59:08.180 for being

00:59:08.580 black, period.

00:59:10.300 You know, so

00:59:11.180 of course,

00:59:12.320 organizing

00:59:12.920 according to

00:59:14.340 that political

00:59:15.040 group, perfect

00:59:16.020 sense, and

00:59:17.280 it worked.

00:59:18.500 Organizing

00:59:19.020 as, you

00:59:21.320 know, a

00:59:21.800 group of

00:59:22.300 black people

00:59:23.060 and getting

00:59:23.560 a lot of

00:59:24.000 support from

00:59:24.580 other people,

00:59:25.540 very successful.

00:59:26.700 Now, fast

00:59:27.160 forward to

00:59:27.700 2020.

00:59:30.320 When you

00:59:30.960 look at the

00:59:31.400 people who

00:59:31.840 are getting

00:59:32.160 stopped by

00:59:32.720 police, and

00:59:33.800 they resist

00:59:34.420 arrest, and

00:59:35.740 they get

00:59:36.320 murdered, or

00:59:38.900 killed, let's

00:59:39.800 say not

00:59:40.160 murdered, let's

00:59:40.720 say killed,

00:59:41.380 keep it less

00:59:42.380 political, they

00:59:44.220 get killed by

00:59:44.760 police.

00:59:45.680 If you

00:59:46.280 are a

00:59:46.960 successful

00:59:47.640 professional

00:59:48.540 black person

00:59:50.180 in the

00:59:50.580 United States,

00:59:52.220 do you

00:59:53.280 want to

00:59:53.660 say, I'm

00:59:54.360 going to

00:59:54.540 throw in

00:59:54.980 with that

00:59:55.360 guy?

00:59:56.400 Because I've

00:59:57.160 got a lot

00:59:57.600 in common

00:59:58.100 with that

00:59:59.180 criminal who

01:00:00.220 just resisted

01:00:01.040 arrest as a

01:00:02.260 lengthy record

01:00:04.160 of crime, and

01:00:06.020 got killed by

01:00:06.700 the police.

01:00:07.360 That's the

01:00:08.540 team I want

01:00:09.180 to be on,

01:00:09.920 because we

01:00:10.200 got to stick

01:00:11.420 together.

01:00:12.380 Me, who

01:00:13.260 has this

01:00:13.940 responsible

01:00:15.960 life, where

01:00:16.980 I did all

01:00:17.440 the right

01:00:17.760 things, I

01:00:18.320 stayed out of

01:00:18.860 trouble, I

01:00:19.800 worked hard, I

01:00:20.560 made money, I

01:00:21.200 took care of

01:00:21.680 my family.

01:00:22.440 Yeah, I've

01:00:22.900 got a lot in

01:00:23.680 common with

01:00:25.180 that crook who

01:00:27.380 just got killed

01:00:28.920 by the police.

01:00:30.180 No, you

01:00:30.660 don't.

01:00:31.320 You don't.

01:00:34.720 Do you give

01:00:36.360 me permission to

01:00:37.100 swear?

01:00:38.640 Because there

01:00:39.640 are just some

01:00:40.200 statements that

01:00:41.260 require cursing,

01:00:43.880 just requires

01:00:45.540 it.

01:00:46.420 Do you

01:00:46.760 mind?

01:00:47.640 I give you a

01:00:49.260 little warning

01:00:49.820 to those of

01:00:51.460 you who want

01:00:51.760 to mute it or

01:00:52.500 get somebody

01:00:53.820 out of the

01:00:54.180 room.

01:00:56.520 This makes

01:00:57.260 me crazy,

01:00:58.420 because I

01:00:59.040 think black

01:00:59.640 people in

01:01:00.240 this country

01:01:00.740 are getting

01:01:01.860 fucking screwed.

01:01:04.320 Just screwed.

01:01:05.760 If you're a

01:01:07.220 black person in

01:01:08.040 this country and

01:01:09.060 you've led what

01:01:10.880 I'll call a

01:01:11.540 responsible life,

01:01:13.480 you said to

01:01:14.080 yourself,

01:01:14.580 all right, what

01:01:15.020 would it take

01:01:15.780 for me to

01:01:17.020 have a good

01:01:17.820 life?

01:01:18.180 And then you

01:01:18.580 did those

01:01:19.120 things and

01:01:20.400 you built

01:01:20.840 yourself a

01:01:21.700 good life.

01:01:23.000 Do you know

01:01:23.320 who's fucking

01:01:23.980 it up for

01:01:24.540 you?

01:01:25.400 Black people.

01:01:27.060 Let's be

01:01:27.520 honest.

01:01:28.540 If you lived a

01:01:29.780 responsible life

01:01:30.880 and you're a

01:01:31.340 black citizen and

01:01:32.320 you just did

01:01:33.020 everything right,

01:01:34.140 you're just

01:01:34.520 taking care of

01:01:35.180 your family,

01:01:35.740 you're paying

01:01:36.140 your fucking

01:01:36.780 taxes,

01:01:37.760 you're just

01:01:38.280 being a good

01:01:38.780 person,

01:01:39.380 maybe you're

01:01:39.820 going to

01:01:40.260 church,

01:01:41.380 you're just

01:01:42.220 contributing.

01:01:43.420 You're just

01:01:44.020 fucking

01:01:44.460 contributing.

01:01:46.600 Why are you

01:01:47.500 being dragged

01:01:48.120 down by the

01:01:49.320 fucking assholes

01:01:50.420 who are breaking

01:01:50.980 the law who

01:01:51.940 happen to have

01:01:52.600 the same color

01:01:53.340 as you?

01:01:54.280 Don't be a

01:01:55.660 sucker.

01:01:56.980 Don't be a

01:01:57.720 sucker.

01:01:58.480 You're not on

01:01:59.220 their team.

01:02:00.540 Neither am I.

01:02:01.640 Because you know

01:02:02.120 whose team I'm

01:02:02.800 on?

01:02:03.340 I'm on your

01:02:03.940 team.

01:02:05.180 You're

01:02:05.560 responsible.

01:02:06.860 I don't care

01:02:07.420 what fucking

01:02:08.020 color you are.

01:02:09.360 I don't care

01:02:09.900 how gay you

01:02:10.600 are.

01:02:10.960 I don't care

01:02:11.400 how LGBTQ

01:02:12.280 you are.

01:02:13.760 Don't

01:02:14.200 fucking care.

01:02:15.600 Are you

01:02:16.000 responsible?

01:02:17.580 Are you

01:02:17.900 taking care of

01:02:18.560 yourself or

01:02:19.220 working toward

01:02:19.960 it?

01:02:20.620 That's fine.

01:02:21.320 You don't have

01:02:21.740 to take care of

01:02:22.260 yourself if you're

01:02:23.340 working toward

01:02:23.900 it.

01:02:24.240 You know,

01:02:24.420 you could be a

01:02:24.880 student or

01:02:25.340 whatever.

01:02:26.880 But I'm on

01:02:28.760 the team of

01:02:29.300 responsible people.

01:02:31.040 People who

01:02:31.500 take care of

01:02:31.960 themselves,

01:02:32.600 their family,

01:02:33.100 the people

01:02:35.000 closest to

01:02:35.780 them,

01:02:36.060 and then

01:02:36.300 maybe if

01:02:36.740 they've got

01:02:37.020 a little

01:02:37.240 left over,

01:02:38.280 something for

01:02:38.960 the town,

01:02:40.000 something for

01:02:40.440 the country,

01:02:41.560 something for

01:02:42.040 the world,

01:02:42.480 if you've got

01:02:43.080 a lot left

01:02:43.540 over.

01:02:44.760 But the

01:02:45.980 fact that

01:02:46.900 both white

01:02:47.940 and black

01:02:48.540 people have

01:02:49.820 fucking screwed

01:02:51.320 the black

01:02:52.040 public in

01:02:52.960 this country,

01:02:54.320 I don't know

01:02:54.640 about other

01:02:55.020 countries,

01:02:55.880 but absolutely

01:02:56.920 fucking screwed

01:02:58.280 black people

01:02:58.920 by allowing

01:03:00.240 them,

01:03:01.200 not allowing,

01:03:02.100 but by

01:03:02.700 encouraging,

01:03:03.420 let's say,

01:03:04.140 by encouraging

01:03:04.960 this filter

01:03:06.160 that black

01:03:07.220 people are on

01:03:07.800 the same

01:03:08.160 team,

01:03:08.760 you're not

01:03:09.440 on the same

01:03:10.100 fucking team.

01:03:12.300 And,

01:03:12.780 you know,

01:03:12.980 listen,

01:03:13.240 if you don't

01:03:13.560 want to listen

01:03:13.960 to me on

01:03:14.460 this,

01:03:14.900 listen to

01:03:15.380 Dave Chappelle.

01:03:16.560 He says

01:03:17.020 the same

01:03:17.640 fucking thing,

01:03:19.080 he just says

01:03:19.640 it in his

01:03:20.040 own words.

01:03:20.960 He says

01:03:21.400 he's rich.

01:03:22.480 He's not

01:03:23.080 on your

01:03:23.420 team.

01:03:24.420 He's not.

01:03:25.720 He will be

01:03:26.600 treated like a

01:03:27.400 rich person.

01:03:27.980 O.J.

01:03:28.920 Simpson,

01:03:29.520 he's not

01:03:30.180 on your

01:03:30.500 team.

01:03:31.480 That's a

01:03:32.100 special case.

01:03:33.100 Not exactly

01:03:33.720 a role model.

01:03:35.020 But how

01:03:36.120 about we

01:03:37.080 just stop

01:03:39.800 treating black

01:03:41.180 people like

01:03:41.720 they're all

01:03:42.020 on the same

01:03:42.420 team?

01:03:42.940 Because they're

01:03:43.680 just not.

01:03:44.740 And the

01:03:45.100 worst fucking

01:03:45.720 thing you

01:03:46.160 could do

01:03:46.640 to a

01:03:47.580 responsible

01:03:48.380 black person,

01:03:49.820 which is

01:03:50.200 most people,

01:03:51.200 right?

01:03:51.660 Most people

01:03:52.220 are responsible,

01:03:53.220 just in

01:03:53.680 general.

01:03:54.380 Most people

01:03:54.880 are responsible.

01:03:56.220 The worst

01:03:56.920 thing you

01:03:57.240 could do

01:03:57.620 is say,

01:03:58.080 oh yeah,

01:03:58.660 you're

01:03:58.900 black.

01:04:00.200 Because that

01:04:00.580 just lumped

01:04:01.220 you in with

01:04:01.820 a whole bunch

01:04:02.340 of fucking

01:04:02.800 irresponsible

01:04:03.260 people that

01:04:04.960 are not

01:04:05.440 your fault.

01:04:06.520 It's not

01:04:06.980 your fucking

01:04:07.520 fault if

01:04:08.920 other people

01:04:09.520 are criminals.

01:04:10.240 It's just

01:04:10.660 not your

01:04:11.140 fucking fault.

01:04:12.300 And you

01:04:12.540 should cut

01:04:13.020 yourself off

01:04:13.600 from them

01:04:13.940 and say,

01:04:15.140 let me live

01:04:16.220 with the

01:04:16.500 responsible

01:04:16.960 people.

01:04:17.500 Let the

01:04:17.980 people who

01:04:18.400 don't care

01:04:18.900 about color,

01:04:19.980 don't care

01:04:20.480 about ethnicity,

01:04:21.440 they only care

01:04:22.100 about the

01:04:22.440 Constitution,

01:04:23.640 they care about

01:04:24.280 making the

01:04:24.720 country work,

01:04:25.700 let me deal

01:04:26.240 with these

01:04:26.660 people,

01:04:27.520 because these

01:04:27.960 people are

01:04:28.460 not going

01:04:28.820 to screw

01:04:29.220 me.

01:04:32.340 So the

01:04:34.080 greatest,

01:04:35.080 I would say,

01:04:36.440 persuasion

01:04:37.260 crime in

01:04:38.220 this country

01:04:38.800 is that

01:04:40.180 we've

01:04:41.580 packaged the

01:04:43.820 citizens by

01:04:44.640 color,

01:04:45.760 and to some

01:04:46.420 extent by

01:04:46.960 gender.

01:04:47.340 similar

01:04:48.460 argument there.

01:04:50.760 All right,

01:04:51.380 so that's

01:04:51.880 enough about

01:04:52.340 that.

01:04:55.760 So what

01:04:56.540 you focus

01:04:57.300 on becomes

01:04:57.880 most real,

01:04:58.560 so as long

01:04:59.040 as we're

01:04:59.380 focusing on

01:05:00.500 black versus

01:05:01.740 white instead

01:05:02.680 of responsible

01:05:03.760 versus

01:05:04.300 irresponsible,

01:05:05.440 we will

01:05:05.980 always get

01:05:06.500 the wrong

01:05:06.860 answer.

01:05:08.000 We'll always

01:05:08.860 have the wrong

01:05:09.500 filter if

01:05:10.340 that's where

01:05:10.740 we spend

01:05:11.140 our time.

01:05:11.620 you know,

01:05:14.920 there's

01:05:15.100 a technology

01:05:16.460 that's coming

01:05:17.180 that might

01:05:18.080 help this

01:05:18.860 happen.

01:05:20.340 Let's say

01:05:20.740 you're,

01:05:22.460 oh,

01:05:23.000 this will

01:05:23.240 really get

01:05:23.640 me canceled.

01:05:25.040 You ready?

01:05:26.180 Here's some

01:05:26.680 serious

01:05:27.180 cancellation

01:05:27.780 material.

01:05:28.920 This will

01:05:29.360 be easy to

01:05:30.160 take out of

01:05:30.640 context so

01:05:31.200 they can

01:05:31.480 cancel it.

01:05:32.800 Let's say

01:05:33.500 you were,

01:05:34.640 I'll just

01:05:35.580 keep this,

01:05:37.520 how can I

01:05:38.280 protect myself

01:05:39.080 best?

01:05:39.480 All right,

01:05:39.900 here's what

01:05:40.960 we'll do.

01:05:41.900 You're a

01:05:42.640 young black

01:05:43.680 woman.

01:05:45.080 You're walking

01:05:45.580 down the

01:05:46.040 street,

01:05:46.420 it's at

01:05:46.780 night,

01:05:47.340 it's maybe

01:05:47.840 a neighborhood

01:05:48.560 that's not

01:05:49.060 as safe

01:05:49.480 as it could

01:05:49.940 be,

01:05:50.620 and you

01:05:51.240 see coming

01:05:51.760 toward you

01:05:52.300 three 19-year-old

01:05:55.080 black youths

01:05:56.600 coming the

01:05:57.240 other way.

01:05:57.980 And they're in

01:05:58.400 the distance,

01:05:59.020 so you can't

01:05:59.440 quite make out

01:06:00.020 what's going

01:06:00.440 on,

01:06:01.000 but you can

01:06:01.460 tell that

01:06:01.820 they're black,

01:06:02.480 they're about

01:06:02.800 that age.

01:06:04.000 You're a

01:06:04.380 black woman.

01:06:05.440 I'm just

01:06:05.780 making everybody

01:06:06.360 black in this

01:06:07.080 situation so I

01:06:08.960 don't get

01:06:09.280 canceled.

01:06:10.600 Do you say

01:06:11.420 to yourself,

01:06:12.260 this is just

01:06:13.040 as safe as

01:06:14.540 if I saw

01:06:15.120 three Asian

01:06:16.200 men walking

01:06:17.180 in the same

01:06:17.680 direction?

01:06:18.600 Well,

01:06:19.160 if you say,

01:06:20.380 if I will

01:06:20.940 judge this

01:06:21.500 based on the

01:06:22.160 number of

01:06:22.660 people in

01:06:23.180 this category

01:06:23.920 who have

01:06:25.540 been jailed,

01:06:27.260 suddenly you

01:06:28.240 end up acting

01:06:28.860 like a racist

01:06:29.540 and it's your

01:06:30.140 own race.

01:06:31.260 Because you're

01:06:31.640 saying,

01:06:31.920 eh,

01:06:32.760 19-year-old

01:06:33.760 males who

01:06:35.460 are black,

01:06:36.540 what percentage

01:06:37.840 of them have

01:06:38.360 a criminal

01:06:38.760 record,

01:06:39.600 unfortunately,

01:06:40.520 it's way

01:06:40.900 higher than

01:06:41.440 anybody would

01:06:42.120 want it to

01:06:42.560 be,

01:06:42.880 right?

01:06:43.460 So if you're

01:06:44.640 the black

01:06:45.020 woman,

01:06:45.380 do you say,

01:06:46.160 maybe I'll

01:06:46.880 cross the

01:06:47.340 street?

01:06:49.720 Right?

01:06:50.380 Would that

01:06:50.820 be unreasonable

01:06:52.000 to make a

01:06:53.560 judgment based

01:06:56.240 on statistics?

01:06:57.900 Well,

01:06:58.460 it's unfair.

01:06:59.920 It's racist.

01:07:01.160 Because those

01:07:01.820 three people

01:07:02.460 that are coming

01:07:03.520 the other way,

01:07:04.080 they could be

01:07:04.480 like honor roll

01:07:05.280 students,

01:07:06.460 they could be

01:07:07.080 Harvard students,

01:07:09.820 you don't know

01:07:10.440 anything about

01:07:11.140 them.

01:07:12.260 You don't know

01:07:12.720 anything about

01:07:13.300 them.

01:07:13.760 But here's the

01:07:14.320 technology that

01:07:15.100 could change

01:07:15.560 that.

01:07:16.780 Facial

01:07:17.220 recognition.

01:07:18.840 Imagine if

01:07:19.840 facial recognition

01:07:21.540 was so good

01:07:22.480 that somebody

01:07:24.200 approaches and

01:07:25.480 you could judge

01:07:26.160 them individually.

01:07:27.780 Boop,

01:07:27.960 boop,

01:07:28.120 boop,

01:07:28.320 oh,

01:07:28.540 three college

01:07:29.120 students are

01:07:29.760 probably no

01:07:30.900 risk here at

01:07:31.460 all.

01:07:32.500 And you just

01:07:33.020 know that even

01:07:33.720 though they're

01:07:34.040 strangers.

01:07:34.380 or three

01:07:36.040 people who

01:07:36.580 have jobs.

01:07:38.000 Three people

01:07:38.580 who have jobs

01:07:39.100 are far less

01:07:39.940 likely to attack

01:07:40.840 you, no

01:07:42.040 matter what

01:07:42.520 ethnicity you

01:07:43.260 are or they

01:07:44.040 are, far less

01:07:45.240 likely than

01:07:45.820 three people

01:07:46.420 who don't

01:07:46.700 have jobs.

01:07:47.820 It's not a

01:07:48.300 universal rule,

01:07:49.900 but likelihood.

01:07:52.780 So the

01:07:53.320 question is,

01:07:54.080 if we get to

01:07:54.940 the point where

01:07:55.500 we can judge

01:07:56.160 people individually

01:07:57.340 and instantly,

01:07:59.060 somebody comes

01:07:59.760 in for a

01:08:00.220 job, boom,

01:08:01.700 you already

01:08:02.100 know who

01:08:02.460 they are.

01:08:02.820 then maybe

01:08:04.780 you could be

01:08:05.380 less racist,

01:08:06.700 right?

01:08:07.620 Because racism

01:08:08.600 is based on

01:08:09.680 some assumption

01:08:10.700 that somebody

01:08:11.440 is similar to

01:08:12.320 other people

01:08:12.860 by the

01:08:13.620 coincidence of

01:08:14.380 their look

01:08:14.920 and their

01:08:15.400 melatonin.

01:08:18.900 Melanin?

01:08:19.580 No melanin.

01:08:22.080 And individual

01:08:23.320 identification would

01:08:25.280 help.

01:08:26.020 Get rid of

01:08:26.480 that.

01:08:28.960 Here's a

01:08:29.640 little trick

01:08:30.080 from Jonathan

01:08:30.980 Tulin on

01:08:32.140 Twitter.

01:08:33.420 He says

01:08:34.220 this,

01:08:34.640 if someone

01:08:35.100 asks you

01:08:35.540 how you

01:08:35.900 are,

01:08:36.380 say,

01:08:36.780 quote,

01:08:37.280 I'm amazing,

01:08:38.240 thanks,

01:08:38.640 how are you?

01:08:39.680 Now,

01:08:40.280 I tweeted

01:08:40.660 this because

01:08:41.480 that's exactly

01:08:43.360 what I say.

01:08:44.840 I use those

01:08:45.540 precise words.

01:08:47.200 Now,

01:08:47.360 not every time,

01:08:48.720 but if I am

01:08:49.740 actually having

01:08:50.340 a good day,

01:08:51.320 I usually say,

01:08:52.500 I'm amazing,

01:08:53.360 thanks,

01:08:54.200 how are you?

01:08:55.080 Here's why I

01:08:55.920 do it.

01:08:57.320 Repetition

01:08:57.880 is persuasion

01:08:59.760 and you can

01:09:00.780 repeat to

01:09:01.440 yourself

01:09:01.920 something that

01:09:03.160 you want to

01:09:03.560 tune yourself

01:09:04.160 to.

01:09:04.840 So if you

01:09:05.300 want to be

01:09:05.620 a nice person,

01:09:06.480 you tell

01:09:06.780 yourself you're

01:09:07.320 a nice person

01:09:07.900 every day.

01:09:08.740 If you want

01:09:09.300 to be stronger

01:09:10.420 or healthier,

01:09:11.420 it probably

01:09:11.900 does help

01:09:12.440 to tell

01:09:12.880 yourself you're

01:09:13.460 stronger or

01:09:14.040 healthier,

01:09:14.680 even if the

01:09:15.440 only thing

01:09:15.780 that changes

01:09:16.200 is it makes

01:09:16.800 you exercise

01:09:17.840 more or

01:09:18.360 whatever.

01:09:19.400 So I would

01:09:20.280 say as a

01:09:20.880 good personal

01:09:22.040 trick that if

01:09:23.560 somebody says,

01:09:24.280 how are you?

01:09:24.820 don't say

01:09:26.700 this.

01:09:29.180 Don't say

01:09:30.020 not bad.

01:09:32.820 That's the

01:09:33.480 worst thing

01:09:33.900 you could say.

01:09:34.500 Not bad.

01:09:36.260 Because your

01:09:37.500 brain doesn't

01:09:38.060 recognize not,

01:09:38.960 but it recognizes

01:09:39.600 bad.

01:09:40.160 So it's like

01:09:40.680 telling yourself

01:09:41.720 you're bad

01:09:42.340 every time

01:09:43.400 somebody asks

01:09:43.920 you how you

01:09:44.320 are,

01:09:44.860 and eventually

01:09:45.400 you start

01:09:46.100 convincing

01:09:46.500 yourself you're

01:09:47.160 bad.

01:09:48.000 But suppose

01:09:48.660 you said

01:09:49.160 every time

01:09:49.900 somebody asks

01:09:50.460 you,

01:09:50.940 it's an

01:09:51.500 excuse to

01:09:52.340 do an

01:09:52.660 affirmation

01:09:53.280 out loud.

01:09:53.840 I'm

01:09:54.040 amazing.

01:09:54.820 Because I'm

01:09:55.800 amazing isn't

01:09:57.260 just are you

01:09:58.000 well or are

01:09:58.980 you having a

01:09:59.540 good day.

01:10:00.400 That's the

01:10:01.060 beauty of it.

01:10:02.460 It's I'm

01:10:03.820 amazing.

01:10:05.580 Somebody says

01:10:06.300 Charles Duhigg.

01:10:07.440 Did he say

01:10:08.060 that in his

01:10:08.580 book?

01:10:10.120 Because he

01:10:10.760 wrote a book

01:10:11.260 on habits.

01:10:12.180 Charles Duhigg

01:10:12.840 actually spent

01:10:13.560 a day with

01:10:14.520 me when he

01:10:15.680 was writing

01:10:16.060 that book and

01:10:16.920 ended up not

01:10:17.600 putting me in

01:10:18.100 his book.

01:10:19.340 But if it

01:10:20.520 came from his

01:10:21.300 book, it was

01:10:22.360 great.

01:10:23.720 But use that

01:10:24.300 trick.

01:10:24.820 Facebook,

01:10:26.040 according to

01:10:26.760 Josh Kaplan,

01:10:28.260 he was

01:10:28.600 tweeting that

01:10:29.560 Facebook is

01:10:31.180 considering

01:10:31.880 restricting the

01:10:32.980 circulation of

01:10:33.780 content,

01:10:34.980 whatever that

01:10:35.640 means, if the

01:10:36.620 election descends

01:10:37.560 into chaos or

01:10:38.540 violent unrest.

01:10:40.600 Are you

01:10:41.220 comfortable with

01:10:41.840 that?

01:10:43.060 That Facebook

01:10:43.800 is at least

01:10:46.240 teasing, I

01:10:47.540 don't know if

01:10:47.940 they'll actually

01:10:48.400 do it, but

01:10:49.580 they would

01:10:50.040 restrict

01:10:50.620 circulation of

01:10:51.920 content and

01:10:52.680 they don't say

01:10:53.240 what content

01:10:53.840 if there's

01:10:55.320 chaos or

01:10:56.020 violence after

01:10:56.740 the election.

01:10:58.160 Now, you

01:10:58.980 can think of

01:10:59.480 a good way

01:11:00.060 that would

01:11:00.420 work.

01:11:01.380 The good

01:11:01.860 way would

01:11:02.500 be if

01:11:02.780 somebody's

01:11:03.220 trying to

01:11:04.060 organize a

01:11:06.320 riot,

01:11:07.520 wouldn't you

01:11:08.200 be happy if

01:11:09.020 Facebook did

01:11:10.320 not help

01:11:10.960 anybody organize

01:11:12.500 a riot?

01:11:12.900 on the other

01:11:14.240 hand, free

01:11:16.440 speech.

01:11:17.640 On the other

01:11:18.180 hand, what if

01:11:19.740 they say we're

01:11:20.540 organizing a

01:11:21.320 protest, but

01:11:22.720 Facebook thinks

01:11:23.740 it will be a

01:11:24.340 riot?

01:11:25.720 Then do they

01:11:26.620 restrict it?

01:11:28.260 I don't know.

01:11:30.160 How long would

01:11:31.140 it take the

01:11:31.920 people organizing

01:11:33.480 their riots or

01:11:34.340 protests to

01:11:35.320 just move to

01:11:35.900 another platform,

01:11:37.180 just move to

01:11:37.960 WhatsApp or

01:11:38.800 something else?

01:11:40.220 probably wouldn't

01:11:42.040 take long.

01:11:42.680 Well, I guess

01:11:43.080 WhatsApp wouldn't

01:11:43.760 work, but some

01:11:44.720 other thing like

01:11:45.860 Signal or

01:11:46.420 something.

01:11:47.540 So I'm a

01:11:49.000 little uneasy,

01:11:50.420 a little uneasy

01:11:51.280 with the

01:11:52.280 platforms

01:11:53.020 manipulating

01:11:55.440 public opinion

01:11:56.640 directly, because

01:11:58.640 they're saying

01:11:59.040 that.

01:11:59.740 They're actually,

01:12:00.960 I don't know how

01:12:01.580 to read this any

01:12:02.240 other way, I

01:12:03.420 believe Facebook

01:12:04.200 is, number

01:12:05.220 one, acknowledging

01:12:06.520 that Facebook

01:12:08.100 manipulates public

01:12:09.460 opinion.

01:12:10.980 Right?

01:12:11.740 Because if they

01:12:12.880 say they're going

01:12:13.680 to stop allowing

01:12:15.360 certain kinds of

01:12:16.260 speech under this

01:12:17.420 circumstance, they

01:12:18.700 are admitting the

01:12:20.120 things that happen

01:12:20.940 on their platform

01:12:21.760 change the real

01:12:23.060 world, meaning

01:12:24.040 that they influence

01:12:24.960 the world.

01:12:25.940 So that's pretty

01:12:27.280 important.

01:12:28.840 But also the fact

01:12:30.220 that they would use

01:12:31.000 their judgment about

01:12:33.120 what it is that's

01:12:34.280 too important or

01:12:35.540 too dangerous to

01:12:36.600 put on there.

01:12:38.280 This is a tough

01:12:39.360 one.

01:12:39.580 And I'm not

01:12:40.320 even sure which

01:12:40.940 way I go on

01:12:41.680 this.

01:12:42.480 Because on one

01:12:43.160 hand, I have

01:12:47.820 mixed Zuckerberg

01:12:49.720 feelings.

01:12:51.060 So on one

01:12:51.600 hand, he

01:12:52.640 probably is

01:12:53.360 legitimately one

01:12:54.400 of the best

01:12:54.980 CEOs in

01:12:57.420 history.

01:12:58.720 Even at a

01:12:59.760 young age, he

01:13:00.300 was one of the

01:13:00.700 best CEOs in

01:13:01.420 history.

01:13:02.060 So I have

01:13:02.780 great respect

01:13:03.580 for his

01:13:04.480 talents.

01:13:05.300 I do think he

01:13:06.040 only wants what's

01:13:06.780 best.

01:13:07.100 I don't think he

01:13:07.900 has any bad

01:13:08.480 intentions for

01:13:09.160 anybody.

01:13:10.360 But even so,

01:13:13.800 trusting anybody

01:13:14.960 to decide what

01:13:16.560 we can and

01:13:17.120 cannot see is

01:13:18.760 pretty dangerous

01:13:19.380 stuff.

01:13:21.700 The CDC changed

01:13:23.260 their guidelines.

01:13:24.300 They said it was a

01:13:25.120 draft report and

01:13:26.160 they pulled it

01:13:26.620 back where they

01:13:27.700 said that the

01:13:28.500 coronavirus had a

01:13:31.360 bigger risk of

01:13:32.120 airborne transmission

01:13:33.400 and then they

01:13:34.060 backed that off

01:13:34.780 and said, no,

01:13:35.320 no, no, it's

01:13:35.780 not so much the

01:13:36.540 airborne transmission

01:13:37.440 as close contact

01:13:39.280 with people and

01:13:40.040 maybe something

01:13:40.560 about services.

01:13:42.060 Now, when you

01:13:42.500 see stuff like

01:13:43.180 this, what are

01:13:45.440 we supposed to

01:13:46.100 think about trusting

01:13:46.960 experts?

01:13:48.060 You've got Joe

01:13:48.880 Biden out there,

01:13:49.700 brain-dead Joe

01:13:50.380 Biden saying,

01:13:51.760 trust the experts.

01:13:52.900 We must listen to

01:13:53.760 the experts.

01:13:56.080 And then the

01:13:57.020 very next news

01:13:57.940 story is about

01:14:00.400 the experts being

01:14:01.240 wrong.

01:14:01.620 So, how does

01:14:03.940 Joe Biden, how

01:14:06.420 does he justify

01:14:07.940 his fairly, not

01:14:11.640 fairly, but his

01:14:12.760 very strict

01:14:13.660 preference for

01:14:15.120 following the

01:14:15.840 experts?

01:14:16.520 How does he

01:14:17.240 justify that in a

01:14:18.360 context where the

01:14:19.280 news, the news

01:14:20.920 that's swirling

01:14:21.720 around him even

01:14:22.580 at the same time

01:14:23.680 is that the

01:14:24.760 experts were wrong

01:14:25.800 about this, the

01:14:27.340 experts were wrong

01:14:28.280 about that, the

01:14:29.620 experts were wrong

01:14:30.520 about that.

01:14:31.620 If you look at

01:14:32.660 President Trump's

01:14:33.520 greatest accomplishments,

01:14:35.520 what do they all

01:14:36.240 have in common?

01:14:38.140 What do they all

01:14:38.860 have in common?

01:14:40.040 The experts said

01:14:40.940 that they wouldn't

01:14:41.580 work, right?

01:14:43.420 Did the experts say

01:14:44.760 that a trade war

01:14:45.820 with China would

01:14:46.800 always be a bad

01:14:47.880 idea?

01:14:48.840 They did.

01:14:49.720 What do they say

01:14:50.420 now?

01:14:51.380 Oh, it looks like

01:14:52.020 it worked, right?

01:14:54.020 Now, it didn't work

01:14:55.180 in terms of we got

01:14:56.080 everything we wanted

01:14:57.000 and we got a good

01:14:57.680 deal.

01:14:57.920 But it certainly

01:14:58.820 moved the ball

01:14:59.540 forward to the

01:15:00.960 point where

01:15:01.500 decoupling makes

01:15:02.660 sense.

01:15:03.180 We know what we

01:15:03.800 can and can't get

01:15:04.540 done.

01:15:05.320 We got as much

01:15:06.320 as we could.

01:15:07.800 But certainly,

01:15:09.020 the president was

01:15:09.840 right that pushing

01:15:11.280 China was right

01:15:12.400 and the experts

01:15:13.180 all disagreed.

01:15:14.580 It was almost

01:15:15.220 universal disagreement

01:15:16.460 by the experts.

01:15:18.240 How about getting

01:15:20.120 the peace deals

01:15:22.020 that the president's

01:15:22.920 gotten so far

01:15:23.600 in the Middle East

01:15:24.400 by pursuing

01:15:25.760 individual peace

01:15:27.060 deals before

01:15:28.020 doing the

01:15:28.920 Palestinian thing?

01:15:30.480 What did the

01:15:31.140 experts say

01:15:32.080 you had to do

01:15:33.440 to get peace

01:15:34.240 in the Middle

01:15:34.820 East?

01:15:35.660 Well, John Kerry

01:15:36.560 was an expert,

01:15:37.440 right?

01:15:37.900 And all of the

01:15:38.740 other experts

01:15:39.460 who agree with

01:15:40.400 Kerry said,

01:15:41.700 no, you've got

01:15:42.240 to get the

01:15:42.640 Palestinian thing

01:15:43.620 first or otherwise

01:15:44.820 nothing else works.

01:15:46.380 All the experts

01:15:47.460 were wrong.

01:15:48.460 What about the

01:15:49.000 experts who said

01:15:49.900 if we pull our

01:15:51.300 forces out from

01:15:52.720 that zone between

01:15:53.620 Turkey and Syria,

01:15:55.500 the Kurds will

01:15:56.260 be slaughtered?

01:15:57.580 Didn't all the

01:15:58.280 experts say they

01:15:58.960 would be slaughtered?

01:15:59.980 And the president

01:16:00.580 said, no, they

01:16:01.620 won't.

01:16:02.320 And they weren't.

01:16:04.580 How many times

01:16:05.660 do you have to

01:16:06.140 see President Trump

01:16:07.200 do something that

01:16:08.680 the experts did

01:16:09.620 not say you

01:16:10.260 should do,

01:16:11.100 and it worked

01:16:11.980 out?

01:16:13.120 He's done it a

01:16:14.080 lot of times.

01:16:15.660 So Joe Biden

01:16:17.160 and his expert

01:16:18.300 reliance does

01:16:20.300 seem like that's

01:16:22.560 a little sketchy.

01:16:23.620 All right.

01:16:26.200 So he says,

01:16:27.360 John Kerry is

01:16:27.980 not an expert.

01:16:29.300 He's an heiress,

01:16:30.120 his wife.

01:16:30.920 Well, I think if

01:16:31.660 you've been

01:16:32.040 Secretary of State

01:16:33.200 and you've been

01:16:34.500 a senator for

01:16:35.180 that many years,

01:16:36.400 you could be

01:16:36.940 an expert.

01:16:42.360 All right.

01:16:43.100 I think I've

01:16:43.680 gone too long

01:16:44.640 and I'm going

01:16:45.240 to end here

01:16:45.860 and I will

01:16:46.620 talk to you

01:16:47.200 tomorrow.

01:16:48.240 Thank you.
