00:00:00.000 Bum, bum, bum, bum, bum, bum, bum, bum, bum, bum, bum, bum, bum, bum, bum, bum, bum, bum, bum, bum.

00:00:08.820 Hey, everybody. Come on in. Come on in. There's still time.

00:00:13.620 Get in here before you miss even one minute of Coffee with Scott Adams, the best part of the day.

00:00:21.080 Yeah, you don't want to miss even one second of the best part of the day.

00:00:25.520 And all you need to maximize of it would be a cup or a mug or a glass, a tank or chalice or stein, a canteen jug or a flask, a vessel of any kind.

00:00:34.900 Fill it with your favorite liquid.

00:00:37.280 I like coffee.

00:00:38.860 And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure, the dopamine hit of the day, the thing that makes everything better.

00:00:45.480 It's called the Simultaneous Sip, and it happens now.

00:00:48.340 Go.

00:00:48.460 Now, I can feel my vitamin D levels starting to surge.

00:00:57.160 Yes, yes.

00:00:59.580 Oxytocin up 10%.

00:01:02.000 Things are going well.

00:01:03.900 I think we're coming online.

00:01:05.880 Going to have a good day.

00:01:09.000 All right.

00:01:10.440 Let me tell you what's going on today.

00:01:12.920 Are you ready?

00:01:14.140 Yeah, we're going to release the kraken.

00:01:15.840 We're going to release the kraken all over the place.

00:01:19.760 There will be people cleaning up the kraken for months to come.

00:01:25.120 But let us talk about the news.

00:01:29.040 Jake Tapper was talking to Dr. Fauci on an interview, and it's starting to look like, as Jake Tapper put it, Christmas might be canceled.

00:01:39.880 That's right.

00:01:41.140 There might be no Christmas this year.

00:01:43.420 And the funniest part about this that I've been laughing for 24 hours about is Twitter user John Gabriel retweets that interview in which Jake Tapper was saying there might not be any Christmas.

00:01:59.740 And John Gabriel tweets, you're a mean one, Mr. Fauci.

00:02:05.040 And I can't get that out of my head now.

00:02:08.500 You're a mean one, Mr. Fauci.

00:02:13.480 If you've never watched The Grinch, that's not hilarious to you.

00:02:18.080 But if you have watched The Grinch, it's pretty good.

00:02:23.020 All right.

00:02:25.040 Trump tweeted that he won the election.

00:02:29.160 So when Trump tweets that he won the election, Twitter puts an official warning on it that says, official sources called this election differently.

00:02:42.620 Now, what are the odds that the only person in the United States who can't speak his opinion would be the president?

00:02:50.300 What's the point of being the president if you're the only one who doesn't have free speech?

00:02:54.540 So I could tweet that, right?

00:02:58.320 Because I saw somebody testing it to see if they could tweet that they're president and see if they'll get a warning.

00:03:08.900 Try it yourself.

00:03:10.020 Try tweeting that you're the elected president and see if you get a warning.

00:03:13.400 Or better, tweet that Trump was elected and see if you get a warning.

00:03:19.420 Because I think he's the only one.

00:03:20.980 I don't believe anybody else would get a warning on that statement.

00:03:26.180 But it's kind of weird that the president's the only one who can't speak freely.

00:03:33.380 Now, here's how I take this question of who's the president or who's the president-elect.

00:03:40.040 Now, you could get technical and you could say, well, nobody's the president-elect yet.

00:03:45.460 Because technically that's true.

00:03:47.080 Or you could be classic and traditional and say, well, the media has called the race, so there is a president-elect.

00:03:54.220 So you could have those dumb conversations which lead to nothing, right?

00:03:58.540 But here's the more interesting one.

00:04:01.460 And this goes to my thoughts about everything from quantum physics to the simulation.

00:04:08.500 Until you know what the answer is, let's say there's some question that's a mystery.

00:04:15.640 Until you know the answer, meaning you've observed it or somebody's observed it, it's still undecided.

00:04:24.440 So this is my actual, this will sound like a joke or maybe I'm leading up to some kind of joke or something.

00:04:30.700 I promise I'm not.

00:04:31.960 This is my actual filter on reality, that the question of who won the election is undetermined.

00:04:41.960 Meaning that even if you could know all the facts, if you had a godlike brain and you knew how many votes were cast,

00:04:52.500 that maybe in that case you would know who the president is.

00:04:56.000 But unless somebody knows, and right now it's unknowable until somebody's really looked in and checked for all the fraud and all that.

00:05:05.100 But until somebody has observed that there either is or is not fraud, it could still exist or not exist.

00:05:14.760 And so for most people, it's an objective fact that somebody got more votes and that therefore somebody is technically the president.

00:05:26.000 In my view of the world, that didn't happen.

00:05:31.080 That there is no fact of who got the most votes.

00:05:35.420 Not because we haven't looked for it.

00:05:37.860 I'm not talking about our own ignorance.

00:05:40.180 I'm talking about a view of reality in which until it's observed, it doesn't actually exist.

00:05:47.500 So you think that it is true that there's a certain number of votes and that's just a fact.

00:05:52.960 We may or may not ever know about it, but it's a fact.

00:05:57.120 And I say, nope.

00:06:00.140 I say it's not a fact.

00:06:01.840 It is not determined until it can be observed.

00:06:05.760 And until it's observed, our history is rewritable.

00:06:11.360 You got that?

00:06:12.280 Until we know from direct observation and all the possibilities have been collapsed, as they say, in that moment of observation.

00:06:22.420 Until then, all histories that are compatible with observation exist simultaneously.

00:06:30.660 So history is not set.

00:06:33.880 History is to be written.

00:06:37.620 Meaning that things you think already happened, they haven't unless they can be observed.

00:06:43.600 And we can't observe the vote count directly.

00:06:45.800 So it hasn't happened yet.

00:06:47.840 So that's my view of the world.

00:06:49.660 Now, you say to yourself, well, that's crazy.

00:06:51.980 Well, that's pretty crazy.

00:06:52.920 How many mushrooms did you have to do before you came to that view of the world?

00:06:58.840 And I would offer you just this as my defense, weak as it is.

00:07:04.340 Until that filter on reality can be disproved, it's as valid as every other filter.

00:07:11.520 And I don't think it can be.

00:07:14.300 All right.

00:07:16.820 Let's see what else is happening.

00:07:18.240 The president is tweeting that the Georgia recount is useless because they're not checking the signatures.

00:07:25.980 They're only counting.

00:07:28.560 And I don't know if the problem was the counting or the number or the problem was also the, you know, the quality of the signatures.

00:07:36.420 They might be fake signatures.

00:07:38.280 But we shall see.

00:07:39.600 We shall see.

00:07:40.440 But now we have a situation in which we have probably, in my opinion, although authorities have a different opinion,

00:07:51.580 in my opinion, we have a rigged election, a fake recount, and it's all being covered by the fake news.

00:07:59.400 We have three levels of fakery between you and reality.

00:08:03.980 Fake news, fake recount, fake vote.

00:08:07.060 Maybe.

00:08:07.660 I don't know if I'll get banned from Twitter for saying that.

00:08:11.180 But in my opinion, we're going to find out that it's fake if we look.

00:08:17.140 Maybe we won't look.

00:08:19.020 So there's a story out of Detroit.

00:08:21.280 There's a whistleblower who claims to be a Dominion IT worker who claims to have directly witnessed massive fraud in Detroit.

00:08:33.240 And here's the claim.

00:08:37.220 And I'm as interested in whether the claim is even physically possible as I am interested in whether that claim is true.

00:08:46.680 Okay?

00:08:47.160 So there's two things.

00:08:48.440 Is it physically possible what is being claimed?

00:08:52.300 But then also, did it actually happen?

00:08:54.080 So here's the claim, that they took piles of ballots that were all Biden ballots, and they fed it into the counting machine.

00:09:03.940 And then when they were done, they took the same pile, and they fed it into the machine again.

00:09:09.460 And then when they were done, they fed it into the machine again.

00:09:12.720 So the accusation is that this whistleblower stood there and directly observed piles of ballots being fed into the machine multiple times.

00:09:25.320 First question, is that possible?

00:09:28.960 Is it physically possible?

00:09:31.420 In other words, once you feed in the ballots, do they go somewhere where you can go pick them up?

00:09:38.060 Or do they go into some locked place where nobody can get to them?

00:09:42.980 Probably you can get to them, wouldn't you say?

00:09:46.880 Probably.

00:09:47.680 You can physically get to them after they've been counted.

00:09:51.320 What would stop you, exactly, from just feeding them back into the machine?

00:09:58.000 Would it be that the machine is checking to see if that specific ballot has already been read?

00:10:04.600 I don't know.

00:10:06.900 I don't know.

00:10:08.860 Does the machine have that capability?

00:10:10.660 And if it has that capability, can that capability be turned off, temporarily or permanently?

00:10:18.720 I don't know.

00:10:20.320 So I'd certainly like to know the answer to the question,

00:10:23.320 is that even physically possible, to count the same ballot over and over again?

00:10:29.360 Because, you know, in your mind, don't you think, wait a minute, it can't be that easy, can it?

00:10:38.440 And if it is that easy, it happened.

00:10:43.080 So let me see if you agree with the following statement.

00:10:49.540 If it is that easy to just run the same ballots through the machine again, it happened.

00:10:56.620 Do you agree or disagree?

00:11:00.420 That if it's that easy, and I'm quite skeptical that it's that easy, I feel like there should be some kind of barcode, right?

00:11:08.040 Somebody's saying barcode.

00:11:09.140 But just because there's a barcode, does that mean that the counting machine checks the barcode?

00:11:16.020 Maybe not.

00:11:17.440 Maybe the barcode is for the post office or for some other purpose.

00:11:21.380 I don't know.

00:11:22.520 So we have a big unknown here, but that whistleblower is interesting.

00:11:28.700 We don't know.

00:11:29.640 So let me tell you what I think is true.

00:11:34.240 Whether it's true that this specific story is the case, that you can just feed ballots through,

00:11:40.720 I believe it's true that it's easy to cheat.

00:11:45.300 You just have to have enough people in on it.

00:11:48.140 So you'd have to have no observers.

00:11:50.500 But if you satisfy this one requirement of no observers, is it easy to cheat, one way or another?

00:11:59.640 You know, is there any mechanism to cheat if you can solve for one variable, which is get rid of the observers?

00:12:07.520 I feel like almost certainly, yes.

00:12:12.420 Am I being naive?

00:12:13.980 I feel like the odds of that are close to 100%, right?

00:12:20.820 In the real world, I would think, if you could get rid of the observers.

00:12:25.720 And what is the biggest reported problem with the election?

00:12:29.640 It got rid of the observers in the key places where the voting was a little suspicious.

00:12:36.300 So Rudy Giuliani tweeted, and coming from him, it has more weight.

00:12:45.180 So this is what Rudy said.

00:12:46.400 The only thing that would have surprised me is if Philly didn't cheat on a big scale in the 2020 election.

00:12:53.560 It would have been the first time they missed such an opportunity in 60 years.

00:12:58.180 Wake up to reality.

00:13:00.440 Now you have two realities, right?

00:13:03.780 So there's the average citizen reality, which is that we've been told by the fake news.

00:13:10.020 We've been told by the fake news that election fraud is exceedingly rare, exceedingly rare in this country.

00:13:19.980 Okay?

00:13:20.360 So that's the news.

00:13:22.200 The news is quite uniformly, and even the Department of Homeland Security, right?

00:13:28.380 That's a pretty credible source, wouldn't you say?

00:13:30.440 Election commission officials, credible sources.

00:13:35.540 And what do they say?

00:13:36.940 They say election fraudulence, election fraud is exceedingly rare.

00:13:44.160 Those are pretty good sources.

00:13:45.900 And I would say that, generally speaking, if somebody who is that good of a source,

00:13:50.600 and there are multiple of them, are saying the same thing,

00:13:54.220 well, you'd have to take that pretty seriously, wouldn't you?

00:13:57.040 Right?

00:13:58.840 Now, let's look at the counterclaim.

00:14:01.860 Rudy Giuliani.

00:14:03.880 Rudy Giuliani has been a mayor of a big city.

00:14:08.340 If you're the mayor of a big city, do you learn some things that people don't know if they're not mayors of big cities?

00:14:14.860 I think so.

00:14:16.420 I think you learn how things really work.

00:14:19.600 If you are also, if you have a background as having prosecuted the mafia,

00:14:26.280 and you've been the mayor of New York City,

00:14:29.620 do you think that Rudy Giuliani has a unique perspective of how much fraud and crime there is in the world

00:14:38.000 that the rest of us maybe don't see?

00:14:42.120 Of course he does.

00:14:44.400 Of course he does.

00:14:46.400 Rudy Giuliani's filter on what happens in a big city is much better than yours.

00:14:53.380 It's much better than mine.

00:14:56.460 It's not even close.

00:14:58.940 If Rudy Giuliani says that Philadelphia has cheated on elections for 60 years,

00:15:05.060 what do you think?

00:15:08.140 Do you think that didn't happen?

00:15:09.700 Do you think Rudy would make such a specific and gigantic claim

00:15:16.240 based on his knowledge of how the world works,

00:15:20.080 all the way from every kind of crime he's prosecuted,

00:15:23.780 through taking down the mafia, to some extent,

00:15:27.380 to being a mayor, to working on this campaign?

00:15:31.600 Rudy has seen some stuff.

00:15:33.240 And for him to make a claim this strong,

00:15:40.240 and then you also see Sidney Powell is making similarly strong claims

00:15:45.120 about the election being fraudulent,

00:15:47.280 I feel as if those are people who know how the real world works.

00:15:52.680 They've seen some stuff.

00:15:54.120 And if I had to bet on which side has the more real world opinion,

00:16:01.140 the officials who are saying everything's right, it's all good,

00:16:04.540 don't worry, nothing to see here, move along,

00:16:07.980 or Rudy Giuliani,

00:16:09.900 I feel like I would go with Rudy on this.

00:16:14.020 I feel like that.

00:16:17.640 So we'll see.

00:16:18.580 All right.

00:16:23.180 Here's a Trump tweet about John Bolton.

00:16:26.320 I guess Bolton thinks that Trump should concede.

00:16:30.720 So here's what Trump says about John Bolton.

00:16:34.040 And, you know, someday we won't have a President Trump.

00:16:37.680 We don't know if it'll happen sooner or later.

00:16:40.400 But someday we won't have him as president.

00:16:42.980 And this is what we're going to miss.

00:16:45.260 I'm speaking for myself here mostly.

00:16:46.980 I'm going to miss a tweet like this.

00:16:49.560 Trump says, quote,

00:16:51.280 John Bolton was one of the dumbest people in government

00:16:54.020 that I've had the, quote, pleasure to work with.

00:16:58.580 A sullen, dull, and quiet guy,

00:17:01.500 he added nothing to national security except, quote,

00:17:05.060 gee, let's go to war.

00:17:07.500 Also, illegally released much classified information.

00:17:11.940 A real dope.

00:17:12.740 Now, come on, you're going to miss that level of transparency.

00:17:19.220 The president is so transparent that you're just going to miss it.

00:17:25.640 So you don't realize what you have when you have it.

00:17:28.440 But when you don't have it,

00:17:30.260 I was getting out of bed this morning,

00:17:33.940 and I was trying to imagine a world without Trump as president

00:17:38.080 in which I would have to get up and talk about politics,

00:17:41.520 but the only person in the story was Joe Biden.

00:17:45.420 And I thought to myself, how am I going to do that?

00:17:49.360 How am I going to keep talking about politics

00:17:52.620 if it's Joe Biden?

00:17:55.380 There's just nothing to talk about.

00:17:57.980 So we'll miss President Trump someday,

00:18:00.880 whenever it is that he's out of office.

00:18:02.780 Here are two things that the public believes are both true.

00:18:08.420 Number one, I told you that voter fraud is exceedingly rare.

00:18:12.720 So wouldn't you say that the public believes that?

00:18:15.800 Yeah, I would say most of the public believes

00:18:17.840 that election fraud in this country is exceedingly rare.

00:18:22.340 Here's another thing that citizens believe,

00:18:26.240 that whenever fraud has a high payoff

00:18:28.920 and it isn't difficult to do it,

00:18:31.880 it'll happen 100% of the time.

00:18:35.300 Now, our election does seem to be one of those situations.

00:18:40.180 Seems to be one of those situations

00:18:41.880 where the payoff for cheating would be really high.

00:18:45.180 I mean, changing the nature of the government of the United States,

00:18:48.300 that's a pretty high payoff.

00:18:50.860 And is it possible?

00:18:54.200 Yeah, it's possible.

00:18:56.600 Looks like it might not even be hard.

00:18:58.920 Depending on whether that Detroit whistleblower is right,

00:19:02.380 or even if she's not,

00:19:03.880 there are probably a dozen other different ways to cheat

00:19:06.260 that are also not that hard,

00:19:09.700 at least for state entities

00:19:11.780 and people who are really determined.

00:19:15.460 So how can it be true

00:19:16.940 that the citizens believe two things that are opposites?

00:19:21.320 They believe that cheating in our elections is exceedingly rare.

00:19:24.900 At the same time,

00:19:26.360 they know that anything that looks like that situation

00:19:29.820 is always full of fraud.

00:19:32.320 Those are opposites.

00:19:34.460 It has to be full of fraud

00:19:36.260 because it's one of those situations

00:19:38.400 where there's lots to gain

00:19:40.420 and it wouldn't be hard to do.

00:19:43.580 Under those conditions,

00:19:44.780 it's always full of fraud.

00:19:46.960 And yet we believe it's not.

00:19:49.020 How do you explain that?

00:19:51.760 Well, people are irrational.

00:19:53.440 That's how.

00:19:54.860 If I had to guess

00:19:55.820 what is a closer description of the world,

00:19:59.340 that our votes have been largely quite good

00:20:02.200 throughout history and including today,

00:20:04.940 or alternately,

00:20:07.080 that all of our elections have been fraudulent.

00:20:11.060 Which is more likely?

00:20:12.620 They're pretty much all good,

00:20:16.400 you know, with some exceptions

00:20:17.540 and there's always a little mischief,

00:20:19.900 but pretty much all pretty clean elections

00:20:22.180 or pretty much all fraudulent.

00:20:25.620 If you had to pick between those two options,

00:20:29.020 I would pick pretty much fraudulently,

00:20:32.420 fraudulent vote every time.

00:20:35.320 Now, I do think that sometimes

00:20:37.120 that that situation can be overcome

00:20:41.020 by an unusually gifted politician.

00:20:45.140 So if you get a Ronald Reagan,

00:20:46.940 you get a Bill Clinton,

00:20:48.600 you get maybe even an Obama

00:20:50.320 or a Trump,

00:20:53.900 you can imagine that the personality

00:20:56.120 would be so strong

00:20:57.460 that they could overcome some cheating.

00:20:59.900 But I would say that every election

00:21:01.560 probably is just full of fraud.

00:21:04.160 That's my guess.

00:21:05.120 I think that's the world you're living in.

00:21:07.740 We might find out.

00:21:09.620 We might not.

00:21:12.960 All right.

00:21:14.460 Moderna says they've got a,

00:21:17.340 that their vaccine is 94.5% effective,

00:21:21.000 which would be in the range of,

00:21:23.740 or, you know, as good as the other vaccine

00:21:25.640 that Pfizer was talking about.

00:21:28.280 Now, how proud are you

00:21:29.920 that the two companies we're talking about

00:21:32.840 are American companies?

00:21:33.980 Two American companies

00:21:36.080 did what experts thought

00:21:38.240 was largely impossible.

00:21:40.340 Now, the vaccines would not be available,

00:21:42.440 per se, in quantity,

00:21:45.140 but it looks like by the end of the year,

00:21:48.260 the president will have done

00:21:49.640 what he said he was going to do,

00:21:51.700 which I thought most,

00:21:52.800 I think most people thought was impossible,

00:21:55.120 to get an actual working vaccine,

00:21:58.300 maybe multiple of them,

00:22:00.260 by the end of the year.

00:22:01.220 So the president did that.

00:22:02.900 That's one of the greatest,

00:22:04.260 I think one of the great accomplishments

00:22:06.140 in politics,

00:22:07.440 you know, assuming things work out.

00:22:10.580 And the experts said it couldn't be done.

00:22:14.160 Now, of course, you have to ask,

00:22:15.740 why is this news coming out

00:22:17.160 two weeks after the election?

00:22:19.360 Is there any chance that the companies

00:22:21.140 knew about the good news

00:22:23.700 maybe a few days before the election?

00:22:27.020 Probably.

00:22:29.080 Probably.

00:22:33.520 So, you know,

00:22:34.720 that's certainly political.

00:22:35.880 I would also expect

00:22:38.960 that the reporting

00:22:40.080 about the virus

00:22:43.000 will get worse and worse

00:22:44.780 and it will look more and more dangerous

00:22:47.800 until inauguration.

00:22:50.960 Meaning

00:22:51.560 that the fake news

00:22:53.640 has a motivation

00:22:55.060 to make the virus look

00:22:56.300 as bad as possible

00:22:57.440 while Trump is still in charge.

00:22:59.640 But the day that Biden

00:23:01.280 is inaugurated,

00:23:02.540 it's going to be this flood

00:23:04.560 of good virus news.

00:23:06.520 Now, that probably was going to happen

00:23:07.840 no matter who got inaugurated

00:23:09.580 because in all likelihood,

00:23:11.760 you know,

00:23:12.300 inauguration is going to be

00:23:13.580 really close to the,

00:23:15.420 probably the peak

00:23:16.360 of the worst of it.

00:23:17.920 So whoever got to be president

00:23:20.240 would be the president

00:23:21.600 when we got past

00:23:23.560 the coronavirus.

00:23:25.000 So

00:23:25.160 you should expect

00:23:27.140 that it will look much worse

00:23:28.940 until inauguration day

00:23:31.100 because that's what

00:23:32.180 the fake news

00:23:32.880 wants it to look like.

00:23:35.120 So there's that.

00:23:36.340 Over at the UK,

00:23:37.360 they're getting more serious

00:23:38.880 about vitamin D

00:23:39.780 and they're looking into,

00:23:42.420 you know,

00:23:44.140 having some vitamin D guidelines

00:23:45.920 for the country

00:23:46.700 and trying to get it

00:23:48.120 to the vulnerable people.

00:23:50.200 So we still don't have

00:23:51.300 the world's most solid science

00:23:53.720 on vitamin D,

00:23:55.420 but I really think

00:23:56.760 in the end,

00:23:58.100 it's going to be

00:23:58.560 one of the biggest variables.

00:23:59.760 That's just my non-scientific,

00:24:02.540 non-medical guess

00:24:03.720 is that that's the way

00:24:04.540 it's shaping up.

00:24:06.140 So that's good news.

00:24:07.540 So maybe by the spring,

00:24:08.940 we'll have some vaccines

00:24:10.200 and we'll have more vitamin D

00:24:12.100 and we'll be in better shape.

00:24:15.240 There's a report,

00:24:16.360 the Daily Mail

00:24:17.100 is reporting that

00:24:19.200 the coronavirus was in Italy

00:24:21.740 as early as September

00:24:23.280 of last year.

00:24:24.200 I guess they found

00:24:24.820 some blood samples

00:24:25.860 from that time

00:24:27.220 in which it was present.

00:24:28.520 Now, if that's true,

00:24:31.240 it would mean that maybe

00:24:32.360 China knew about the pandemic

00:24:35.740 or may have detected it

00:24:38.520 even sooner than we knew about.

00:24:40.800 So China's got even more

00:24:42.020 to answer to.

00:24:43.600 And I guess President Trump

00:24:44.620 is looking to turn the screws

00:24:46.600 on China

00:24:47.380 and have some more

00:24:49.340 hardline policies

00:24:50.240 that are hard to reverse

00:24:51.420 for Joe Biden.

00:24:53.180 How would you ever trust

00:24:55.280 Joe Biden to negotiate

00:24:56.600 with China?

00:24:58.120 How are we ever going

00:24:59.380 to be happy

00:25:00.000 with whatever he comes up with?

00:25:02.960 Because no matter

00:25:04.020 what Biden comes up with,

00:25:05.300 it's going to look like

00:25:06.120 it was too nice to China, right?

00:25:08.200 And if he's not too nice,

00:25:10.580 he won't get a deal.

00:25:12.560 So he only has two ways

00:25:14.060 to lose, I think.

00:25:15.640 So if Biden gets a deal

00:25:17.320 with China,

00:25:18.060 he'll be criticized

00:25:19.180 for it being, you know,

00:25:20.600 too generous.

00:25:22.020 And if he doesn't get a deal,

00:25:23.220 he's the guy

00:25:23.640 who didn't get a deal.

00:25:25.300 So Biden's got

00:25:28.280 some China problems ahead.

00:25:30.860 Here's a question for you.

00:25:32.720 Hypothetically,

00:25:33.300 if the president's allegations

00:25:34.580 about the election

00:25:35.400 were true,

00:25:36.760 hypothetically,

00:25:38.180 hypothetically,

00:25:39.640 would it be worse

00:25:41.800 than Watergate?

00:25:43.480 I think it would, right?

00:25:45.080 If the president's accusations

00:25:46.780 were true,

00:25:48.340 and we have to wait and see,

00:25:49.780 but if it's true,

00:25:52.800 somebody says,

00:25:53.880 YouTube is messing

00:25:55.400 with my audio?

00:25:58.100 Maybe.

00:25:59.340 I doubt they're doing it intentionally.

00:26:03.360 But why don't the networks

00:26:05.920 have Carl Bernstein on

00:26:07.920 to ask him,

00:26:09.980 hypothetically, Carl,

00:26:11.340 because they do

00:26:11.860 hypothetical questions.

00:26:13.600 And they say things like,

00:26:15.480 if it's true that there's

00:26:17.000 Russian collusion,

00:26:17.920 is this worse

00:26:19.580 than Watergate?

00:26:20.840 And Carl Bernstein

00:26:21.700 will say,

00:26:22.440 yes,

00:26:22.840 that would be worse

00:26:23.620 than Watergate.

00:26:24.680 Or if,

00:26:26.520 let's say,

00:26:26.980 the president's

00:26:27.780 perfect letter

00:26:28.600 to the Ukraine,

00:26:30.860 if that was a problem,

00:26:32.200 would it be worse

00:26:32.980 than Watergate?

00:26:34.020 And Carl Bernstein

00:26:35.200 will say,

00:26:35.660 yeah,

00:26:36.500 yeah,

00:26:36.720 that's worse

00:26:37.240 than Watergate.

00:26:37.860 So why don't we ask

00:26:41.360 Carl Bernstein

00:26:42.440 if the president

00:26:44.060 is accurate?

00:26:44.960 Because again,

00:26:45.440 we talk about allegations.

00:26:47.280 We don't just talk about

00:26:48.520 things which are

00:26:49.220 known facts.

00:26:50.980 Carl Bernstein

00:26:51.700 can be asked,

00:26:53.220 if it's true,

00:26:54.340 hypothetically,

00:26:56.080 would it be worse

00:26:57.100 than Watergate?

00:26:58.520 Don't you think

00:26:59.020 that's a fair question?

00:27:00.280 Because he's been

00:27:00.900 asking that,

00:27:01.680 he's been asked

00:27:02.460 that question

00:27:03.520 for four years,

00:27:04.700 and he's answered

00:27:05.940 it every other time.

00:27:07.560 Why can't he answer

00:27:08.500 it this time?

00:27:09.740 Let's have him on.

00:27:11.500 Would it be worse

00:27:12.220 than Watergate

00:27:12.840 if there's fraud

00:27:14.780 in the election?

00:27:15.580 All right.

00:27:18.540 Trump has

00:27:19.380 confirmed

00:27:21.100 in a tweet

00:27:21.900 what I've been telling you

00:27:22.960 that the legal cases

00:27:24.600 that you know about

00:27:25.620 so far,

00:27:27.000 challenging the election result,

00:27:28.900 those legal cases

00:27:29.860 are not the end

00:27:31.100 of their arguments.

00:27:32.980 They're probably

00:27:33.940 more of a stalling action,

00:27:35.860 you know,

00:27:36.040 just to make sure

00:27:36.620 that something's happening,

00:27:38.400 but, you know,

00:27:39.120 get ready,

00:27:39.840 we're looking into

00:27:40.500 more stuff.

00:27:41.500 The more stuff

00:27:42.300 and the good stuff,

00:27:43.740 I don't believe,

00:27:44.560 has been presented

00:27:45.360 to the courts.

00:27:47.000 So if you're wondering,

00:27:48.620 well,

00:27:48.940 what happens

00:27:49.460 after these lawsuits

00:27:50.760 get worked through

00:27:52.540 and it doesn't look

00:27:53.400 like they have

00:27:53.840 much substance,

00:27:54.960 are we done?

00:27:55.900 And the answer is,

00:27:57.060 no,

00:27:57.400 that would be

00:27:57.960 before you've started.

00:28:00.300 So Democrats

00:28:01.300 are thinking,

00:28:02.080 we've got these lawsuits

00:28:03.200 out there,

00:28:03.940 once they've been

00:28:05.240 taken care of,

00:28:06.040 we're done.

00:28:07.220 Nope.

00:28:08.200 Those lawsuits

00:28:09.160 are signaling

00:28:09.980 the beginning

00:28:11.220 of a process.

00:28:12.760 They're not even

00:28:13.460 close to the end.

00:28:14.860 It's the beginning.

00:28:16.360 So we should see

00:28:17.480 stuff this week.

00:28:20.160 And let's see.

00:28:24.620 If you want to go to

00:28:26.000 and review

00:28:26.860 election irregularities

00:28:29.860 and allegations,

00:28:31.260 now there's

00:28:32.400 a website.

00:28:35.080 But it looks like,

00:28:36.760 well,

00:28:38.020 look for Robert Barnes'

00:28:39.260 tweet.

00:28:41.420 He shows you

00:28:41.980 the website.

00:28:42.560 You can report

00:28:43.160 stuff there.

00:28:44.200 All right.

00:28:45.740 I have a legal question

00:28:47.080 for you.

00:28:48.700 Do hate crimes,

00:28:50.740 so in the United States,

00:28:52.140 if you do a crime

00:28:53.540 that is a,

00:28:54.320 quote,

00:28:54.380 hate crime,

00:28:55.100 the penalty is

00:28:56.680 worse.

00:28:58.120 So is there

00:28:59.740 a hate crime?

00:29:03.200 Is there a hate crime

00:29:04.660 that applies to

00:29:05.580 attacking Trump

00:29:06.680 supporters?

00:29:07.820 And if not,

00:29:09.280 why not?

00:29:11.380 Should there not be

00:29:12.640 hate crime laws

00:29:14.200 that apply to

00:29:15.260 attacking people

00:29:16.300 for political views?

00:29:19.520 There should be,

00:29:20.660 right?

00:29:20.840 Because we have

00:29:22.240 protected categories,

00:29:23.900 you know,

00:29:24.300 I think LGBTQ,

00:29:26.660 probably racial,

00:29:27.900 I assume religious,

00:29:29.860 maybe gender,

00:29:32.520 I don't know,

00:29:32.980 but whatever the

00:29:33.600 classes are

00:29:34.380 for protected

00:29:35.760 hate crimes,

00:29:38.120 why would

00:29:38.820 Trump supporters

00:29:39.760 not be in that

00:29:40.680 category?

00:29:41.640 And if it's not

00:29:42.400 true,

00:29:43.460 we should be

00:29:44.100 making it true,

00:29:44.840 right?

00:29:45.800 I mean,

00:29:46.160 I would think

00:29:46.900 that that would

00:29:47.960 be a big step

00:29:48.960 toward making it

00:29:49.920 not a free

00:29:51.480 punch on

00:29:52.140 Trump supporters.

00:29:53.620 We should put

00:29:54.260 a little meat

00:29:54.800 into those laws.

00:29:56.540 And I saw

00:29:57.060 that Don Jr.

00:29:58.460 and Ivanka

00:29:58.960 and the

00:30:01.160 president

00:30:01.540 have all

00:30:02.460 pushed back

00:30:03.140 on the

00:30:04.340 violence against

00:30:05.580 Trump supporters

00:30:06.220 in the recent

00:30:06.920 protests.

00:30:09.460 So the

00:30:09.940 president seems

00:30:10.580 to be going

00:30:11.080 right at that

00:30:11.740 now,

00:30:12.400 as well as

00:30:13.560 his family.

00:30:15.420 So we

00:30:15.820 appreciate that.

00:30:17.320 Speaking on

00:30:18.140 behalf of people

00:30:19.020 who might get

00:30:19.540 punched,

00:30:20.560 there's an

00:30:21.100 article in

00:30:21.840 the Buffalo

00:30:23.760 Chronicle,

00:30:25.020 which I will

00:30:26.340 tell you before

00:30:27.180 I get to the

00:30:28.180 story,

00:30:29.540 that it is

00:30:30.300 allegedly a

00:30:32.300 fake news

00:30:33.080 publication.

00:30:34.360 So if you

00:30:35.160 see this story,

00:30:36.480 just know it

00:30:37.120 comes from a

00:30:37.740 publication that

00:30:38.540 has a history

00:30:39.140 of just making

00:30:39.940 stuff up,

00:30:41.040 allegedly.

00:30:43.160 And allegedly,

00:30:44.380 there's a

00:30:44.820 Philadelphia mob

00:30:45.920 boss who admits

00:30:47.600 the whole scheme

00:30:48.500 of fixing the

00:30:49.380 election.

00:30:49.720 But it comes

00:30:50.860 from a source

00:30:51.460 that is not

00:30:52.480 considered

00:30:52.980 credible.

00:30:54.080 So you

00:30:55.140 should not

00:30:55.500 consider it

00:30:56.000 credible either.

00:30:57.660 But maybe.

00:30:59.100 Don't you think

00:30:59.660 there's a pretty

00:31:00.300 good chance

00:31:00.960 that organized

00:31:01.580 crime has a

00:31:02.960 role in

00:31:03.660 fixing elections?

00:31:05.240 because if you

00:31:06.940 wanted to get

00:31:08.340 somebody to fix

00:31:09.220 an election and

00:31:10.820 you wanted them

00:31:11.400 to stay quiet

00:31:12.360 about it,

00:31:13.780 organized crime

00:31:14.560 would be a good

00:31:15.180 way to go.

00:31:16.740 Because everybody

00:31:17.600 involved in

00:31:18.220 organized crime

00:31:19.000 has a really

00:31:19.760 good reason to

00:31:20.820 keep their mouth

00:31:21.380 shut, meaning

00:31:22.140 they would get

00:31:22.820 killed if they

00:31:24.060 opened their

00:31:24.480 mouth.

00:31:24.880 That's way

00:31:25.520 better than

00:31:26.560 just getting a

00:31:27.220 bunch of

00:31:27.820 sketchy Democrats

00:31:29.120 to do the

00:31:29.940 cheating for you.

00:31:30.720 Because a

00:31:31.540 sketchy Democrat

00:31:32.300 might become a

00:31:33.360 whistleblower.

00:31:34.900 But somebody

00:31:35.440 who's involved

00:31:36.340 with a mafia

00:31:37.540 crime family,

00:31:39.580 well, they're

00:31:40.100 going to really

00:31:40.620 think pretty hard

00:31:41.540 before they

00:31:42.260 turn on the

00:31:43.880 scheme because

00:31:44.900 you get killed

00:31:46.580 for that.

00:31:47.660 All right,

00:31:47.920 here's a

00:31:48.400 question for you.

00:31:49.900 Once the

00:31:50.540 vaccines are out

00:31:51.420 there and people

00:31:51.980 are getting

00:31:52.300 vaccinated, if

00:31:53.980 you've had your

00:31:54.660 vaccination and

00:31:55.760 you feel you've

00:31:56.460 got a 95%

00:31:57.900 chance of

00:31:59.480 being safe

00:32:01.780 from the

00:32:02.380 virus, and

00:32:05.000 let's say

00:32:05.480 you're 25

00:32:06.100 years old, so

00:32:07.860 you have a

00:32:08.500 very low chance

00:32:09.320 of getting the

00:32:10.000 virus, you

00:32:10.780 have a low

00:32:11.180 chance of

00:32:11.700 having a

00:32:12.060 problem with

00:32:12.500 the virus,

00:32:13.540 you also

00:32:14.140 got a

00:32:14.500 vaccination and

00:32:15.420 that takes a

00:32:15.980 95% chance

00:32:17.200 off of those

00:32:18.340 already low

00:32:19.000 chances, your

00:32:20.180 odds of having

00:32:21.480 a problem

00:32:22.040 close to

00:32:23.400 zero, what

00:32:25.260 are you going

00:32:25.540 to do?

00:32:26.660 See, here's

00:32:27.360 the problem.

00:32:28.520 Let's say you

00:32:29.100 go to a

00:32:29.580 public place

00:32:30.360 and you

00:32:31.500 see a

00:32:31.880 bunch of

00:32:32.240 people without

00:32:33.280 masks, while

00:32:34.480 most people

00:32:35.240 have them, what

00:32:36.460 would you think

00:32:37.140 of the people

00:32:37.620 who don't

00:32:37.980 have masks?

00:32:39.380 Well, if

00:32:40.100 nobody has a

00:32:40.940 vaccination, you

00:32:41.980 assume that

00:32:42.560 they're violating

00:32:43.360 the rules,

00:32:44.360 because even

00:32:45.000 though they

00:32:45.520 might be

00:32:46.460 some of the

00:32:47.400 people who

00:32:47.840 recovered and

00:32:48.720 they might

00:32:49.100 have antibodies,

00:32:50.780 they might,

00:32:52.720 you wouldn't

00:32:53.520 assume that.

00:32:55.000 You'd probably

00:32:55.520 assume they're

00:32:56.040 just not following

00:32:56.780 the guidelines.

00:32:57.380 So we're

00:32:59.020 going to

00:32:59.180 have a lot

00:32:59.860 of Karens

00:33:01.220 and what

00:33:02.480 is the

00:33:03.200 other word

00:33:03.680 for it?

00:33:04.480 A lot of

00:33:04.880 Karens

00:33:05.380 complaining about

00:33:07.380 people without

00:33:07.940 masks and

00:33:08.740 those people

00:33:09.240 saying, I

00:33:09.760 got a

00:33:10.040 vaccination.

00:33:11.360 And then

00:33:11.740 the Karen

00:33:12.200 will say,

00:33:13.400 the vaccination

00:33:13.920 isn't 100%.

00:33:15.440 And by the

00:33:16.400 way, even

00:33:17.580 if it's

00:33:18.640 protecting you,

00:33:20.040 maybe you

00:33:20.820 could still

00:33:21.200 be a

00:33:21.580 carrier.

00:33:21.960 So even

00:33:24.400 though you

00:33:24.760 got your

00:33:25.140 vaccination, I

00:33:26.620 think you

00:33:27.060 should wear

00:33:27.540 a mask

00:33:28.080 too, will

00:33:29.480 say Karen.

00:33:31.180 Now, I

00:33:31.940 don't know

00:33:32.160 what the

00:33:32.440 professionals

00:33:32.940 will say.

00:33:34.140 What will

00:33:34.720 Dr. Fauci

00:33:36.340 say?

00:33:37.300 Will Dr.

00:33:37.940 Fauci say,

00:33:39.320 yeah, even

00:33:39.820 though it's

00:33:40.160 95% good,

00:33:42.000 you might have

00:33:43.080 some on your

00:33:44.540 clothing, I

00:33:45.520 don't know.

00:33:46.140 There might be

00:33:46.540 some argument

00:33:47.160 that you're

00:33:48.400 still dangerous

00:33:49.120 enough.

00:33:49.740 That's

00:33:51.940 going to be

00:33:52.180 ugly, because

00:33:53.140 there's going

00:33:53.540 to be a

00:33:53.920 period of

00:33:54.560 maybe nine

00:33:55.440 months where

00:33:56.880 we would be

00:33:57.540 a mix of

00:33:58.200 vaccinated and

00:33:59.160 unvaccinated

00:33:59.960 people, and

00:34:01.120 I've got to

00:34:01.540 tell you that

00:34:02.040 the people who

00:34:02.620 get vaccinated,

00:34:04.120 especially the

00:34:04.980 ones who go

00:34:05.540 through four

00:34:06.380 days of pain

00:34:07.140 with each of

00:34:07.740 the two

00:34:08.160 vaccinations,

00:34:09.540 because apparently

00:34:10.080 there's a little

00:34:10.720 bit of a

00:34:11.100 side effect

00:34:11.560 there, those

00:34:13.260 people are

00:34:13.740 not going to

00:34:14.240 want to wear

00:34:14.820 a freaking

00:34:15.640 mask.

00:34:17.420 And I

00:34:18.380 don't think

00:34:19.000 there's any

00:34:19.500 chance we'll

00:34:21.800 be able to

00:34:22.220 make them,

00:34:23.240 because they're

00:34:23.840 just going to

00:34:24.280 say, that's

00:34:25.020 my limit.

00:34:27.060 I'll play

00:34:27.740 with you with

00:34:28.380 the mask if

00:34:30.600 there's a

00:34:31.040 legitimate

00:34:31.520 medical risk,

00:34:33.440 but as soon

00:34:34.220 as you tell

00:34:34.680 me I have to

00:34:35.300 wear a mask

00:34:35.900 just to be a

00:34:36.640 good team

00:34:37.220 player, is

00:34:38.980 that what

00:34:39.260 you're telling

00:34:39.600 me?

00:34:40.320 You're telling

00:34:40.740 me I need

00:34:41.160 to wear my

00:34:41.640 mask just

00:34:42.720 so the

00:34:43.080 people who

00:34:43.560 need the

00:34:44.020 masks feel

00:34:44.800 comfortable?

00:34:46.340 That's the

00:34:46.900 only reason

00:34:47.320 I'm wearing

00:34:47.740 a mask.

00:34:48.220 I think

00:34:49.900 that would

00:34:50.220 be a

00:34:50.460 hard limit

00:34:51.040 for most

00:34:51.480 people.

00:34:52.320 And people

00:34:52.680 will go

00:34:53.140 along with

00:34:53.960 protect your

00:34:55.820 fellow people's

00:34:56.920 health.

00:34:57.720 You can get

00:34:58.320 a lot of

00:34:58.920 people to

00:34:59.320 say, all

00:34:59.760 right, I'll

00:35:00.780 take a

00:35:01.140 little bit

00:35:01.520 of risk,

00:35:03.420 et cetera, to

00:35:03.940 help other

00:35:04.540 people.

00:35:05.580 That's what a

00:35:06.280 society is.

00:35:07.200 We take a

00:35:07.620 little risk on

00:35:08.240 ourselves for

00:35:09.420 the benefit of

00:35:10.080 the greater

00:35:10.460 good, but

00:35:11.020 that's not

00:35:11.540 going to work

00:35:12.120 after the

00:35:12.740 vaccinations.

00:35:13.920 That'll be the

00:35:14.480 end of that

00:35:14.900 argument, I

00:35:15.440 think.

00:35:15.620 Most of

00:35:20.680 our news

00:35:21.200 has ground

00:35:21.920 to a bit

00:35:22.740 of a

00:35:23.080 halt, I

00:35:24.160 would say,

00:35:26.140 meaning that

00:35:27.000 until the

00:35:29.960 president either

00:35:30.740 starts making

00:35:31.360 more news

00:35:32.140 or we

00:35:35.160 get some

00:35:35.600 big news

00:35:36.240 on the

00:35:36.800 recounts or

00:35:37.840 the election

00:35:38.360 integrity,

00:35:39.660 we're sort

00:35:40.680 of in a

00:35:41.720 waiting pattern.

00:35:42.560 And then we'll

00:35:42.920 be into the

00:35:43.580 holiday season

00:35:44.560 when the

00:35:45.500 news slows

00:35:46.100 down

00:35:46.420 normally.

00:35:50.320 Somebody says

00:35:51.220 medical people

00:35:52.260 give wristbands

00:35:53.240 in hospitals.

00:35:55.180 Yeah, I

00:35:56.000 thought about

00:35:56.480 that.

00:35:56.840 You could

00:35:57.120 have some

00:35:57.480 kind of

00:35:57.780 indication

00:35:58.500 or a

00:35:59.920 badge you

00:36:00.480 wear that

00:36:00.920 says you

00:36:01.240 got a

00:36:01.660 vaccination,

00:36:02.720 and that

00:36:03.080 might help

00:36:03.500 a little

00:36:03.780 bit, but

00:36:04.580 how long

00:36:05.000 would it

00:36:05.280 take for

00:36:05.660 people to

00:36:06.200 get fake

00:36:06.880 badges?

00:36:08.600 You know,

00:36:09.140 anything

00:36:09.680 could go

00:36:10.100 wrong.

00:36:10.380 The sting

00:36:16.420 is coming,

00:36:17.120 somebody says.

00:36:18.240 All right,

00:36:18.500 let me ask

00:36:19.000 you, since

00:36:20.040 I can see

00:36:20.500 the comments

00:36:21.080 now from

00:36:21.580 both Periscope

00:36:22.780 and YouTube,

00:36:23.920 how many of

00:36:24.680 you watching

00:36:25.180 this right

00:36:25.640 now believe

00:36:27.220 that there

00:36:28.880 was massive

00:36:29.700 fraud,

00:36:30.880 massive fraud

00:36:32.940 in the

00:36:33.340 election,

00:36:33.860 sufficient that

00:36:35.320 it could have

00:36:35.720 changed the

00:36:36.220 outcome?

00:36:37.460 So show

00:36:38.440 me in the

00:36:39.140 comments how

00:36:39.800 many of

00:36:40.180 you believe

00:36:41.000 based on

00:36:42.440 what you

00:36:42.760 already know

00:36:43.640 that fraud

00:36:45.980 was rampant.

00:36:49.860 Looks like

00:36:50.500 we have a

00:36:50.860 lot of

00:36:51.080 yeses.

00:36:52.940 All right,

00:36:53.480 I see

00:36:53.760 one no.

00:36:59.200 I'm

00:36:59.640 seeing just

00:37:00.180 yes,

00:37:00.620 yes,

00:37:00.880 yes,

00:37:01.100 yes,

00:37:01.380 yes,

00:37:01.840 yes,

00:37:02.140 yes,

00:37:02.400 yes.

00:37:06.580 Absolutely,

00:37:07.440 yes.

00:37:07.960 Somebody says

00:37:08.500 not yet.

00:37:09.800 So we

00:37:10.320 have one

00:37:10.820 cautious

00:37:12.180 skeptic,

00:37:13.180 which is

00:37:13.500 never the

00:37:13.920 wrong answer.

00:37:15.100 Being a

00:37:15.480 cautious

00:37:15.840 skeptic is

00:37:16.900 never wrong.

00:37:20.100 Yeah,

00:37:20.460 so it

00:37:21.680 looks like

00:37:21.940 most of

00:37:22.400 you are

00:37:22.680 convinced.

00:37:23.500 Here's the

00:37:24.020 weird thing,

00:37:25.220 that our

00:37:25.680 system works

00:37:26.320 at all.

00:37:27.760 We have the

00:37:28.520 weirdest system

00:37:29.400 where we

00:37:30.320 cannot trust

00:37:31.080 any part of

00:37:31.800 it and yet

00:37:32.960 still trust

00:37:33.700 the whole.

00:37:34.940 You know

00:37:35.260 what I mean?

00:37:35.640 If you

00:37:36.220 looked at

00:37:36.540 any one

00:37:37.080 part of

00:37:37.720 our

00:37:37.880 system,

00:37:38.360 you'd say,

00:37:39.160 all right,

00:37:39.440 you've got a

00:37:39.760 politician.

00:37:40.500 Is the

00:37:40.860 politician telling

00:37:41.640 the truth?

00:37:42.920 You'd say,

00:37:43.420 no,

00:37:43.900 no,

00:37:44.760 they don't

00:37:45.180 do that.

00:37:46.160 You'd say,

00:37:46.600 what about

00:37:46.920 the vote

00:37:47.640 count?

00:37:48.420 Is the

00:37:49.040 vote count

00:37:49.720 credible?

00:37:51.620 You'd say to

00:37:52.160 yourself,

00:37:52.680 apparently,

00:37:53.240 based on your

00:37:53.740 comments,

00:37:54.220 you'd say,

00:37:54.940 no,

00:37:55.320 I don't think

00:37:56.040 the election

00:37:56.620 itself was

00:37:57.300 credible and

00:37:58.040 I don't think

00:37:59.020 the politicians

00:37:59.820 are telling

00:38:00.320 the truth.

00:38:00.820 And you

00:38:01.260 go right

00:38:02.060 down the

00:38:02.440 line and

00:38:02.940 you say,

00:38:03.380 I don't

00:38:03.600 think the

00:38:04.000 news is

00:38:04.540 real.

00:38:05.580 I think

00:38:06.120 the news

00:38:06.540 is fake.

00:38:08.180 And so

00:38:08.720 we would

00:38:09.120 imagine that

00:38:09.960 every part

00:38:10.640 of our

00:38:11.080 entire process

00:38:12.080 is fraudulent

00:38:13.160 or non-credible,

00:38:14.840 but in

00:38:15.860 total,

00:38:17.700 we still

00:38:18.120 think it's

00:38:18.520 okay.

00:38:19.820 It kind

00:38:20.480 of sums

00:38:20.900 up to

00:38:21.280 something

00:38:21.620 pretty good.

00:38:22.540 It's sort

00:38:22.900 of like

00:38:23.160 capitalism.

00:38:24.220 If you

00:38:24.740 look at

00:38:25.000 any one

00:38:25.460 part of

00:38:25.920 capitalism,

00:38:26.600 it's all

00:38:26.880 broken and

00:38:27.580 corrupt and

00:38:28.900 filled with

00:38:30.640 awful things.

00:38:32.620 But

00:38:32.880 capitalism

00:38:33.380 as a

00:38:34.320 whole,

00:38:35.540 we're

00:38:35.900 pretty good

00:38:36.300 with it.

00:38:36.900 It seems

00:38:37.180 to work.

00:38:38.460 It's just

00:38:38.800 that every

00:38:39.220 part of

00:38:39.660 it is

00:38:39.920 bad.

00:38:43.220 So

00:38:43.780 here's

00:38:44.860 what you

00:38:45.240 should

00:38:45.460 expect.

00:38:46.280 And I'm

00:38:46.740 driving people

00:38:47.440 crazy on

00:38:48.080 Twitter,

00:38:48.500 my critics,

00:38:49.680 quite

00:38:50.120 intentionally.

00:38:52.060 And what

00:38:52.920 I'm doing

00:38:53.280 is I'm

00:38:53.660 telling them

00:38:54.040 that they

00:38:54.340 have to

00:38:54.620 wait for

00:38:55.300 the good

00:38:55.660 stuff,

00:38:56.640 the stronger

00:38:57.740 allegations

00:38:58.460 they have

00:38:59.040 evidence

00:39:00.240 and my

00:39:02.080 understanding

00:39:02.640 is that

00:39:03.140 in the

00:39:03.340 next week

00:39:03.820 or two

00:39:04.160 you're

00:39:04.460 going to

00:39:04.660 see that

00:39:05.120 stuff.

00:39:06.080 But the

00:39:06.760 accusation

00:39:07.480 now is

00:39:08.020 that if

00:39:08.560 I can't

00:39:09.140 personally

00:39:09.780 present the

00:39:11.040 evidence

00:39:11.480 right now

00:39:12.220 that I'm

00:39:13.840 lying or

00:39:15.480 it doesn't

00:39:15.900 exist,

00:39:17.020 we'll find

00:39:19.840 out.

00:39:21.060 Have I

00:39:21.680 ever been

00:39:22.140 further on

00:39:23.140 a limb?

00:39:24.640 I don't

00:39:24.940 know.

00:39:25.820 You know,

00:39:26.320 when I

00:39:26.900 made the

00:39:27.860 original

00:39:28.300 Trump

00:39:29.600 would win

00:39:30.100 the election

00:39:30.580 in 2016

00:39:31.320 prediction,

00:39:32.520 I was

00:39:33.040 really far

00:39:33.840 out on

00:39:34.500 a plank.

00:39:35.940 I mean,

00:39:36.220 I was

00:39:36.700 out there,

00:39:37.240 let's say

00:39:37.680 on a

00:39:38.460 limb to

00:39:39.320 keep my

00:39:39.960 analogy

00:39:40.300 straight.

00:39:41.620 But that

00:39:42.280 worked out

00:39:42.720 for me.

00:39:43.760 And I've

00:39:44.140 made a

00:39:44.440 number of

00:39:45.300 other

00:39:45.580 predictions

00:39:46.020 that were

00:39:46.600 pretty far

00:39:47.440 out there,

00:39:48.300 and many

00:39:49.140 of them

00:39:49.480 have worked

00:39:50.340 out.

00:39:52.220 When I

00:39:52.900 predicted that

00:39:53.580 we would

00:39:53.920 have two

00:39:54.380 presidents at

00:39:55.180 the same

00:39:55.580 time,

00:39:56.020 that seemed

00:39:57.640 pretty crazy,

00:39:58.400 didn't it?

00:40:00.080 And here

00:40:00.740 we are,

00:40:01.720 two presidents

00:40:02.600 at the same

00:40:03.320 time.

00:40:03.980 Now,

00:40:04.220 I believe

00:40:04.540 that one

00:40:05.020 of them

00:40:05.300 will have

00:40:05.820 the

00:40:06.260 constitutional

00:40:07.000 power and

00:40:08.620 do the

00:40:09.140 work of

00:40:10.420 the president.

00:40:11.520 There's only

00:40:12.000 going to be

00:40:12.280 one of

00:40:12.600 those.

00:40:13.640 But I

00:40:14.960 think history

00:40:15.640 will record

00:40:16.460 that Trump

00:40:19.600 won at

00:40:20.360 the same

00:40:20.740 time that

00:40:21.360 the system

00:40:22.480 is treating

00:40:23.040 Biden as

00:40:23.860 the winner.

00:40:24.160 So we

00:40:25.060 have two

00:40:26.040 presidents

00:40:26.600 elect,

00:40:27.500 in my

00:40:27.780 opinion,

00:40:28.720 right now,

00:40:29.400 and they

00:40:29.780 both have

00:40:30.220 an argument

00:40:30.680 that looks

00:40:32.660 pretty solid.

00:40:34.300 Now,

00:40:34.580 we don't

00:40:34.880 know who's

00:40:35.600 got the

00:40:35.900 better argument

00:40:36.500 until Trump

00:40:37.760 has presented

00:40:38.340 his full

00:40:39.480 thing,

00:40:39.900 but now

00:40:40.200 that he's

00:40:40.620 said directly

00:40:41.200 that the

00:40:41.620 good stuff

00:40:42.100 hasn't

00:40:42.400 happened

00:40:42.740 yet,

00:40:43.760 you've

00:40:44.520 got something

00:40:44.840 to look

00:40:45.120 forward to.

00:40:47.700 So I

00:40:48.860 see in the

00:40:49.260 comments,

00:40:50.000 one of the

00:40:51.240 things that

00:40:51.720 I've invited,

00:40:52.900 because I

00:40:53.480 like trouble,

00:40:54.160 I find

00:40:56.080 myself in

00:40:56.600 this situation

00:40:57.180 where two

00:40:58.520 weeks from

00:40:58.940 now I

00:40:59.400 could look

00:40:59.760 like the

00:41:00.300 biggest jerk

00:41:01.620 and clown

00:41:02.580 in the

00:41:02.940 world if

00:41:04.060 it turned

00:41:04.400 out that

00:41:04.980 we look

00:41:05.540 at all

00:41:06.000 the elections

00:41:06.500 and they're

00:41:06.920 all perfectly

00:41:07.500 credible and

00:41:08.800 there was

00:41:09.040 no fraud.

00:41:09.940 I would

00:41:10.540 look very

00:41:11.140 foolish under

00:41:12.260 that situation.

00:41:13.720 I think you

00:41:14.380 would agree.

00:41:15.120 Now, keep

00:41:15.540 in mind,

00:41:16.100 I'm not

00:41:16.520 claiming that

00:41:17.800 I know the

00:41:18.460 election is

00:41:20.220 fraudulent and

00:41:21.160 will be

00:41:21.560 overcome.

00:41:22.140 I'm dealing

00:41:22.620 from a

00:41:23.140 statistical

00:41:23.760 perspective,

00:41:25.380 which is

00:41:26.100 this situation,

00:41:28.020 which is

00:41:28.500 there's a lot

00:41:29.060 to gain and

00:41:30.060 it is possible

00:41:30.980 to cheat,

00:41:32.940 always creates,

00:41:34.320 always,

00:41:35.900 it always

00:41:36.320 creates fraud.

00:41:37.060 I don't know

00:41:37.300 if it's

00:41:37.560 enough to

00:41:38.740 change the

00:41:39.160 election or

00:41:39.760 if we'd

00:41:40.140 find it if

00:41:40.740 it was

00:41:41.040 enough,

00:41:41.820 but it's

00:41:42.640 there.

00:41:43.320 So I feel

00:41:43.800 pretty confident

00:41:44.440 about that.

00:41:45.060 but will

00:41:49.760 we really

00:41:50.340 find out?

00:41:51.960 So here's

00:41:52.900 the thing

00:41:53.280 that I

00:41:53.880 know that

00:41:55.040 my critics

00:41:55.700 don't know,

00:41:56.960 and it's

00:41:57.360 the biggest

00:41:57.800 difference for

00:41:58.520 why my

00:41:59.020 opinion

00:41:59.420 differs.

00:42:01.460 If you

00:42:02.200 had people

00:42:02.740 who don't

00:42:03.260 know how

00:42:03.600 to look

00:42:04.000 for problems,

00:42:05.540 would they

00:42:06.340 find them?

00:42:07.800 And the

00:42:08.100 answer is

00:42:08.540 no,

00:42:09.400 probably not.

00:42:10.680 If you

00:42:11.320 had the

00:42:11.640 people who

00:42:12.080 know exactly

00:42:12.880 where problems

00:42:13.700 would be,

00:42:14.880 and they

00:42:15.300 are really,

00:42:16.180 really good

00:42:16.520 at looking

00:42:17.220 for stuff

00:42:17.880 and finding

00:42:18.680 problems,

00:42:19.760 then could

00:42:20.340 they find

00:42:20.820 it?

00:42:22.000 Probably

00:42:22.600 yes.

00:42:23.620 So here's

00:42:24.520 what I think

00:42:24.980 is different.

00:42:26.120 The reason

00:42:26.660 that we

00:42:27.160 think our

00:42:27.600 system is

00:42:28.540 good and

00:42:29.360 has integrity

00:42:30.360 is that no

00:42:31.420 one who

00:42:32.220 has the

00:42:32.820 talent to

00:42:34.500 detect fraud

00:42:35.480 has looked

00:42:36.520 into it.

00:42:37.780 I believe

00:42:38.460 that is what

00:42:39.560 we will

00:42:39.940 ultimately learn,

00:42:41.380 is that there's

00:42:42.000 never been

00:42:42.520 anything like

00:42:43.560 a comprehensive

00:42:44.920 audit of all

00:42:46.480 the parts of

00:42:47.120 our election

00:42:47.580 system.

00:42:48.580 I'll bet it's

00:42:49.040 never happened.

00:42:50.640 It's happening

00:42:51.240 now.

00:42:52.340 Now when I

00:42:52.800 say all the

00:42:53.380 parts, I mean

00:42:53.900 everything that

00:42:54.440 they have

00:42:54.680 access to and

00:42:55.720 everything that

00:42:56.440 has transparency.

00:42:58.020 But the

00:42:59.200 thing I can

00:42:59.860 promise you

00:43:01.460 is that if

00:43:03.140 you're worried

00:43:03.780 that the

00:43:04.280 people looking

00:43:05.000 for the

00:43:05.460 fraud are

00:43:06.640 not talented

00:43:07.520 enough to

00:43:08.220 find it,

00:43:09.360 don't worry

00:43:10.340 about that.

00:43:12.520 So if

00:43:13.320 there's one

00:43:13.720 thing you

00:43:14.080 don't have

00:43:14.560 to worry

00:43:14.920 about,

00:43:15.820 is that the

00:43:16.340 people looking

00:43:17.080 for it don't

00:43:18.840 have enough

00:43:19.280 talent to

00:43:19.820 find it.

00:43:20.980 They do.

00:43:22.360 They got

00:43:22.800 enough talent

00:43:23.300 to find it.

00:43:24.280 And if it's

00:43:24.880 there, they

00:43:27.640 found it

00:43:28.100 already.

00:43:29.380 Okay?

00:43:30.040 So do you

00:43:31.380 like that as an

00:43:32.200 optimistic statement?

00:43:33.720 If it's there,

00:43:35.740 they already

00:43:36.480 found it.

00:43:38.420 Think about it.

00:43:39.340 That doesn't

00:43:40.380 mean you've

00:43:40.780 heard it because

00:43:41.820 I think it's

00:43:42.260 being packaged

00:43:42.860 up for the

00:43:45.340 legal cases.

00:43:46.600 Probably the

00:43:47.280 first time you'll

00:43:47.920 see it is in

00:43:49.660 the context of

00:43:50.520 the legal

00:43:51.120 documents.

00:43:52.280 It's probably

00:43:52.580 the first time

00:43:53.120 you'll see it.

00:43:55.940 All right.

00:43:58.980 Somebody says

00:43:59.940 like where

00:44:00.680 there's lots

00:44:01.200 of money,

00:44:01.720 there's corruption.

00:44:02.580 Exactly.

00:44:03.740 Yeah,

00:44:03.980 wherever there's

00:44:04.560 lots of power

00:44:05.320 or lots of

00:44:06.200 money,

00:44:06.840 there's always

00:44:07.360 corruption.

00:44:07.740 I don't

00:44:08.720 know that

00:44:09.060 there's ever

00:44:09.480 been an

00:44:09.960 exception to

00:44:10.880 that.

00:44:12.220 And why

00:44:14.820 would this

00:44:15.120 be the

00:44:15.420 exception?

00:44:19.680 Why was

00:44:20.420 Trump saying

00:44:20.980 mail-in

00:44:21.460 ballots are

00:44:22.560 not secure?

00:44:24.060 Well, the

00:44:25.040 example of

00:44:25.840 the Detroit

00:44:26.720 whistleblower is

00:44:27.620 one example.

00:44:30.200 If it were

00:44:31.040 true that the

00:44:31.860 whistleblower is

00:44:32.500 telling the

00:44:32.860 truth, that

00:44:33.460 those ballots

00:44:34.020 were fed into

00:44:34.780 the machine

00:44:35.220 multiple times,

00:44:36.820 that would

00:44:37.220 be unsecure.

00:44:38.260 If it's

00:44:38.920 true that

00:44:39.680 lots of

00:44:41.020 ballots got

00:44:42.220 filled out

00:44:42.760 by individuals

00:44:44.940 for other

00:44:46.440 people, that

00:44:47.880 would be very

00:44:48.400 unsecure.

00:44:49.840 Let me ask

00:44:50.660 you this.

00:44:51.960 If you

00:44:52.760 fill down a

00:44:54.700 ballot from

00:44:55.600 the same

00:44:56.260 address, and

00:44:57.980 you fill

00:44:58.360 down, let's

00:44:59.220 say, 50

00:45:00.160 ballots with

00:45:01.760 different names

00:45:02.720 and signatures,

00:45:04.500 but the same

00:45:05.220 address, with

00:45:07.080 the voting

00:45:07.640 system catch

00:45:08.560 that, do

00:45:10.720 you know?

00:45:12.760 Do you

00:45:13.420 know if the

00:45:13.940 voting system

00:45:14.640 would catch

00:45:15.200 it if 50

00:45:17.140 people said

00:45:17.880 they lived at

00:45:18.880 the same

00:45:19.240 address?

00:45:22.340 You might.

00:45:23.680 You might find

00:45:24.760 out the answer

00:45:25.260 to that pretty

00:45:25.720 quickly.

00:45:27.140 So what I'm

00:45:27.840 saying is that

00:45:28.580 by its nature,

00:45:31.120 the paper ballot

00:45:31.960 system has lots

00:45:33.080 of opportunity

00:45:33.740 for fraud.

00:45:34.380 that's all.

00:45:36.320 All right,

00:45:37.060 that's all I

00:45:37.480 got for you,

00:45:38.220 and I will

00:45:38.580 talk to you

00:45:39.140 tomorrow.

00:45:43.320 All right,

00:45:43.920 YouTubers,

00:45:44.820 got any other

00:45:45.820 questions for me?

00:45:47.040 The Periscopers

00:45:47.940 are offline.

00:45:48.920 And there

00:45:54.420 could still be

00:45:54.920 fake IDs,

00:45:55.780 people say.

00:45:56.520 I think the

00:45:57.240 only kinds of

00:45:57.900 frauds that you

00:45:58.580 need to worry

00:45:59.100 about are the

00:45:59.860 ones that could

00:46:00.520 be done in

00:46:01.120 bulk.

00:46:01.940 So when I

00:46:02.580 heard the

00:46:02.900 story about

00:46:03.420 feeding the

00:46:04.300 ballots through

00:46:05.580 multiple times,

00:46:07.280 I said to

00:46:08.180 myself, well,

00:46:08.960 there's something

00:46:09.420 you could

00:46:09.840 reproduce in

00:46:10.620 bulk.

00:46:11.800 So that

00:46:13.280 would be

00:46:13.640 promising.

00:46:14.080 Is it the

00:46:19.180 apocalypse?

00:46:19.900 I don't

00:46:20.200 think so.

00:46:21.800 Here's a

00:46:22.400 little tip

00:46:23.040 for you.

00:46:25.060 Imagine

00:46:25.540 whatever the

00:46:26.640 news is

00:46:27.120 telling you

00:46:27.580 is the

00:46:28.020 risk and

00:46:29.820 social media.

00:46:30.840 So if social

00:46:31.320 media and the

00:46:31.860 news are

00:46:32.260 telling you

00:46:32.640 that the

00:46:32.980 risk is,

00:46:33.640 let's say,

00:46:34.600 an 8 and

00:46:35.400 a 10,

00:46:37.120 you should

00:46:37.680 just dial

00:46:38.300 that down

00:46:38.780 to about

00:46:39.160 half of

00:46:39.700 that.

00:46:40.500 More like

00:46:41.000 a 4 and

00:46:41.620 a 10.

00:46:41.960 because the

00:46:43.420 news business

00:46:44.260 and social

00:46:44.840 media by its

00:46:45.500 design are

00:46:46.220 supposed to

00:46:46.800 make you

00:46:47.160 more worried

00:46:47.980 than you

00:46:48.920 should be

00:46:49.480 about things

00:46:51.360 that are not

00:46:51.940 worth that

00:46:52.440 much worry.

00:46:53.780 So you

00:46:56.260 should just

00:46:56.640 dial back

00:46:57.380 everything that

00:46:58.220 you hear

00:46:58.720 about in

00:47:00.020 the news

00:47:00.500 about problems

00:47:01.540 unless it

00:47:02.640 affects you

00:47:03.100 personally and

00:47:03.760 then you

00:47:03.980 want to look

00:47:04.340 into it.

00:47:04.740 But all the

00:47:05.080 big world

00:47:05.600 stuff, I

00:47:08.080 don't think

00:47:08.720 that you

00:47:09.200 need to worry

00:47:09.920 about them as

00:47:10.480 much as the

00:47:11.080 news tells you

00:47:11.800 in general.

00:47:13.600 Should Trump

00:47:14.580 buy CNN?

00:47:16.700 Maybe.

00:47:17.940 So CNN

00:47:18.420 does appear

00:47:19.180 to be for

00:47:20.160 sale.

00:47:21.060 I can tell

00:47:21.860 you from

00:47:23.300 my own

00:47:23.860 research,

00:47:24.780 see how I

00:47:25.280 made that

00:47:25.680 sound like

00:47:26.300 it's more

00:47:26.860 important than

00:47:27.440 it is?

00:47:28.220 I do have

00:47:29.140 personal

00:47:30.900 information to

00:47:32.640 confirm that

00:47:33.360 CNN is for

00:47:34.760 sale.

00:47:36.060 I don't know

00:47:36.560 if that's been

00:47:37.140 confirmed in

00:47:38.140 the news news,

00:47:39.360 but I can

00:47:39.900 confirm that.

00:47:41.800 So let's

00:47:46.720 see,

00:47:47.240 why are

00:47:48.060 you,

00:47:48.320 comments,

00:47:50.100 some of

00:47:50.380 your comments

00:47:50.780 go by so

00:47:51.380 fast I

00:47:52.100 can't see

00:47:52.440 them.

00:47:53.200 Slaughter

00:47:53.560 meter,

00:47:54.020 I'm going

00:47:54.280 to crank

00:47:55.180 up the

00:47:55.560 slaughter

00:47:55.840 meter to

00:47:56.340 97%

00:47:57.500 from 96,

00:48:00.220 so the

00:48:00.560 slaughter

00:48:00.820 meter is

00:48:01.160 at 97%,

00:48:02.320 but there's

00:48:04.380 a caveat.

00:48:05.600 It doesn't

00:48:06.380 mean that

00:48:07.020 Trump will

00:48:07.740 take office

00:48:08.460 for a second

00:48:09.140 term.

00:48:09.500 what it

00:48:10.620 means is

00:48:11.100 that he

00:48:11.420 got the

00:48:11.900 right votes,

00:48:13.580 meaning that

00:48:14.240 the slaughter

00:48:14.740 meter is

00:48:15.360 going to

00:48:15.760 predict that

00:48:16.880 someday,

00:48:18.100 and it

00:48:18.420 might be

00:48:18.740 after the

00:48:19.380 Biden

00:48:19.660 administration,

00:48:21.120 but someday

00:48:21.720 history will

00:48:23.160 record that

00:48:23.940 Trump won.

00:48:25.880 It just

00:48:26.620 may not be

00:48:27.340 able to take

00:48:27.840 office because

00:48:29.020 the society,

00:48:30.160 the civilization

00:48:31.120 might not let

00:48:31.800 him.

00:48:32.640 I think that

00:48:33.340 the fake news

00:48:34.180 now has enough

00:48:34.980 power that they

00:48:36.280 can just act

00:48:36.860 like he didn't

00:48:37.460 win, and

00:48:38.500 he just

00:48:38.860 won't be

00:48:39.560 able to

00:48:40.080 do the

00:48:41.220 job.

00:48:42.100 They'll just

00:48:42.720 act like he

00:48:43.400 didn't win,

00:48:43.960 and that'll

00:48:44.300 be it.

00:48:47.260 But if

00:48:48.140 the Republicans

00:48:49.680 win the

00:48:50.280 Senate, it

00:48:51.240 would set up

00:48:51.780 a situation

00:48:52.380 where 2022

00:48:53.220 and 2024

00:48:54.720 would be

00:48:56.080 Republican

00:48:56.860 landslides,

00:48:59.340 and after

00:49:00.640 that they

00:49:01.040 would own

00:49:01.340 everything.

00:49:01.720 thoughts on

00:49:05.560 Trump's

00:49:05.940 legal dream

00:49:06.940 team, you

00:49:08.480 know, I

00:49:08.740 don't know

00:49:09.080 how to

00:49:09.720 analyze that

00:49:10.420 sort of

00:49:10.740 thing.

00:49:12.020 Is it

00:49:12.600 guaranteed to

00:49:13.240 go to the

00:49:13.600 Supreme Court?

00:49:14.520 I don't think

00:49:15.200 anything's

00:49:15.680 guaranteed,

00:49:17.240 and I don't

00:49:18.520 know exactly

00:49:19.160 what it is

00:49:19.780 that would go

00:49:20.240 to the

00:49:20.560 Supreme Court,

00:49:21.600 but you

00:49:21.920 have to

00:49:22.260 think something's

00:49:23.160 going to end

00:49:23.520 up there.

00:49:24.380 The Supreme

00:49:25.180 Court at

00:49:25.620 least has the

00:49:26.220 advantage that

00:49:27.020 it could add

00:49:27.480 a little bit

00:49:28.000 of credibility

00:49:29.840 to whatever

00:49:30.560 the outcome

00:49:31.020 is.

00:49:32.720 All right,

00:49:33.800 that's all I

00:49:34.200 got for now.

00:49:35.280 I will talk

00:49:35.880 to you tomorrow.
