Real Coffee with Scott Adams - Episode 1194 Scott Adams： Disinformation, Election Persuasion and What Will Happen to my Printer Today. With Extra Profanity

00:00:00.000 Bum-bum-bum-bum-bum-bum, bum-bum-bum, bah-da-bum-bum-bum-bum, bum-bum-bum-bum.

00:00:10.000 Oh, I didn't notice you there. Hey, everybody. Good to see you. Good to see you.

00:00:17.640 You know, every morning when I am in your company, I feel good. True story.

00:00:25.100 You know, this is the only thing I've ever done that is job-like,

00:00:31.480 that doesn't feel anything like work.

00:00:35.160 Because this stuff that I do, I literally do it for fun.

00:00:40.940 And I look forward to it every morning.

00:00:42.720 So I hope some of you enjoy it.

00:00:44.900 And you might enjoy it more with a cup or mug or a glass of tank or gel,

00:00:48.320 just a kind of vessel of any kind.

00:00:52.880 Any kind, really.

00:00:55.100 Fill it with your favorite liquid.

00:00:56.500 I like coffee.

00:00:58.840 And join me now, once again,

00:01:02.320 for an unbroken string of unparalleled goodness.

00:01:07.560 It's called the Simultaneous Sip.

00:01:09.960 And it happens right now.

00:01:11.840 Go.

00:01:12.100 Go.

00:01:19.660 Well, let's talk about my printer.

00:01:21.820 If you've been joining me on these live streams lately,

00:01:27.160 you know I've had a little trouble with it.

00:01:29.580 A little bit of trouble with it.

00:01:31.300 But here's an interesting update.

00:01:34.140 It turns out that when you complain about your HP printer in public,

00:01:40.320 eventually, the word of that complaint will reach the HP executive escalation team.

00:01:50.420 So I get a phone call.

00:01:51.980 I'm driving yesterday.

00:01:53.100 I get a phone call in my car.

00:01:54.440 And it's Hewlett Packard saying,

00:01:58.820 we hear you're having problems with your printer.

00:02:01.160 So the escalation team,

00:02:07.720 if you're not familiar with big corporation processes,

00:02:13.020 it's very common for a big corporation to have a small group who does exactly this.

00:02:18.980 They look for prominent complaints,

00:02:22.900 the kind of complaints that would get into the public and cause a public relations problem.

00:02:29.380 And they look to stamp out those prominent complaints with a special team.

00:02:35.640 It's actually very smart.

00:02:37.620 When I worked for Pacific Bell, we had the same thing.

00:02:41.400 We had a rapid response team for the big complaints that could get out of hand.

00:02:47.200 And so HP contacts me and offers to set me up with a tech support to solve my problem.

00:02:56.040 So we arranged a call, and the tech support guy calls and walked me through a fairly,

00:03:02.060 it was pretty complicated to sign on and solve it.

00:03:06.300 But the first part of the solution goes like this.

00:03:09.540 Tech support says, go to this web page, type in this URL,

00:03:14.280 and then, you know, click these buttons.

00:03:15.820 And I'm just doing what I'm told, right?

00:03:18.040 So I go to my computer, and I go to the web page,

00:03:20.940 and I feel like it's going to be something like download this driver or something like that.

00:03:27.760 But just before I click, I realize that the thing I'm going to click on

00:03:32.120 is going to turn over control of my computer to the stranger on the phone.

00:03:36.240 And I'm like, and my finger just jumps back when I realize what I'm about to click.

00:03:44.620 I do believe that it was HP.

00:03:47.440 So I don't really disbelieve that HP was on the phone.

00:03:53.280 And indeed, they solved the problem and then followed up.

00:03:57.000 So I'm sure it was HP.

00:03:57.960 But as a general rule, if you let a stranger on the telephone

00:04:04.360 get control of your computer, don't do that.

00:04:10.720 Better than that, pick your computer up and throw it out your window

00:04:15.060 and then, you know, destroy it with a hammer and buy a new one.

00:04:19.380 But don't give strangers control of your computer.

00:04:22.280 Just don't do that.

00:04:26.040 I realize I just made a lot of people's tech support problems much harder.

00:04:30.340 But don't do that.

00:04:32.060 So I didn't need to do that.

00:04:34.180 You know, he just talked me through what I needed to do,

00:04:36.380 changed the drivers, and it works fine.

00:04:38.500 Look at this.

00:04:39.420 Paper.

00:04:40.880 Paper.

00:04:41.880 So instead of throwing my printer off of the balcony, as I was going to do,

00:04:47.420 let me give a shout-out to HP,

00:04:49.120 who every once in a while you see a big corporation do something exactly right.

00:04:55.320 That's what they did.

00:04:56.440 It was exactly right.

00:04:58.400 The way they handled it could not have been more perfect.

00:05:02.880 So my compliments to HP.

00:05:06.700 All right.

00:05:08.680 Here's a fun thing that might be ahead.

00:05:11.940 Assuming Biden takes office, as many people believe.

00:05:16.140 Now, I don't think that's guaranteed,

00:05:17.620 but let's just work with me here.

00:05:20.040 If Biden takes office,

00:05:21.820 he's going to be walking into a buzzsaw

00:05:24.320 that I don't think he sees coming.

00:05:28.160 And it looks like this.

00:05:30.780 Trump was able to get the Republican Party

00:05:33.320 to rally around him eventually.

00:05:36.320 I don't know that Democrats are going to be able to pull that off,

00:05:39.580 you know, the left and the right.

00:05:40.720 I think that now that they think they won,

00:05:43.700 they're going to turn their attentions on each other

00:05:45.960 and, you know, and start chewing on each other.

00:05:49.420 So Biden will have only, let's say,

00:05:52.360 half or two-thirds of the Democratic Party.

00:05:55.520 The other third will be trying to kill him.

00:05:58.420 He won't have Republicans, obviously.

00:06:01.240 Fox News, Breitbart,

00:06:03.020 they're unlikely to be, you know, pro-Biden.

00:06:05.940 So he's going to have that whole part of the media against him,

00:06:09.780 a third or so of his own team against him.

00:06:12.640 And then here's the fun part.

00:06:15.040 How does CNN stay in business

00:06:17.100 if all they do is puff pieces on Biden?

00:06:21.640 It made sense to do them when they did them

00:06:23.960 because they were trying to manage a result

00:06:26.360 to get him elected.

00:06:27.800 But what happens if the dog chases the car

00:06:30.840 and then catches it?

00:06:32.580 If the dog catches the car

00:06:35.560 and doesn't know what the fuck to do with it?

00:06:38.200 I promised you extra profanity.

00:06:40.740 There's more coming.

00:06:43.700 And so CNN is going to have a tough choice

00:06:45.880 if all they do is,

00:06:48.180 well, Biden's awesome again.

00:06:50.100 Look at that energy.

00:06:51.380 Look at him go.

00:06:52.660 He seems more coherent than ever, really.

00:06:56.020 How many people are going to watch that?

00:06:59.100 Nobody.

00:07:00.140 Nobody's going to watch it.

00:07:01.260 So, and it's not as fun to look at,

00:07:04.580 oh, Mitch McConnell, block this or that.

00:07:07.780 Those are boring stories, right?

00:07:10.020 You need a Trump to get some energy into your coverage.

00:07:16.180 Biden doesn't have any energy.

00:07:18.120 So CNN will either have to go out of business,

00:07:21.520 which, believe it or not, is one of the choices.

00:07:24.120 They're talking about selling CNN,

00:07:26.200 which is not exactly going out of business,

00:07:28.960 but it would be an acknowledgement

00:07:32.020 that their business isn't working.

00:07:34.760 They need some kind of a larger protector, if you will,

00:07:38.500 somebody with deep pockets.

00:07:40.480 So I think the most likely thing that would happen

00:07:43.680 is CNN will turn on Biden,

00:07:45.520 because they'd have to.

00:07:47.720 They need to get ratings.

00:07:48.940 So Biden is going to have the left media against him,

00:07:53.500 the right media against him,

00:07:54.920 and a third of his own base against him.

00:07:59.640 I don't think any president would ever come into office

00:08:02.780 with more potential firepower aimed at him.

00:08:06.820 It's going to be brutal, or it could be.

00:08:10.360 I mean, I suppose you could say that CNN

00:08:12.640 so doesn't care about profits

00:08:14.640 that they would rather, you know,

00:08:17.640 just be nice to him because he's on their team.

00:08:20.920 Maybe.

00:08:22.280 But I feel like profits are pretty important.

00:08:25.360 I feel as though the profit motive

00:08:27.060 will cause CNN to turn on him.

00:08:29.740 And if you believe that AI already runs the world,

00:08:33.560 it's guaranteed.

00:08:34.560 All right.

00:08:38.580 Here's a question for you,

00:08:39.960 and I genuinely don't know the answer to this,

00:08:42.020 so it's not rhetorical.

00:08:44.320 Are Republicans as bad as Democrats?

00:08:47.520 As people?

00:08:49.720 Because I get a biased view of it

00:08:53.160 because most of my trolls

00:08:55.500 would identify as being left-leaning,

00:08:58.920 and people on the right are generally nicer to me

00:09:02.200 because they tend to agree with my messages, etc.

00:09:04.840 So what I don't know

00:09:06.140 is all things being equal,

00:09:08.880 if I were not identified with a side,

00:09:12.820 would Republicans be as bad to me,

00:09:16.420 just personally, as human beings,

00:09:19.440 as the left is?

00:09:21.440 Because I don't feel like that would be the case,

00:09:24.400 but it might be, right?

00:09:26.200 Could I have a blind spot?

00:09:27.420 Do I have a blind spot that just makes me biased

00:09:30.340 in favor of, you know, right-leaning people?

00:09:34.280 Because I'll tell you my impression,

00:09:36.600 which is not based on science or data,

00:09:39.540 all right?

00:09:40.040 So I could be completely wrong about this,

00:09:43.360 and I'm aware that I could be completely wrong,

00:09:45.340 but I'll tell you how I feel.

00:09:46.260 I feel as if I often agree politically,

00:09:50.960 philosophically,

00:09:51.800 with a lot of the things that people on the left say.

00:09:55.580 For example, you know,

00:09:57.380 I think we ought to have something closer

00:09:59.700 to free college somehow.

00:10:01.320 I don't know how to get there.

00:10:02.400 We should have something closer

00:10:03.820 to better health care for everybody.

00:10:06.020 I don't know how to get there either, math-wise.

00:10:09.000 So I don't disagree with a lot of things that they want,

00:10:12.020 but it feels like conservatives and Republicans

00:10:17.120 are nicer people.

00:10:19.280 Am I wrong about that?

00:10:21.560 Just nicer people.

00:10:23.500 So I would rather be hanging out

00:10:26.000 with conservatives who disagree with me politically

00:10:29.160 than I would hanging out with leftists

00:10:33.760 who agree with me politically.

00:10:35.700 They just seem unpleasant,

00:10:37.920 and I can't tell if that's just a weird bias I have

00:10:41.280 or if it's actually a thing.

00:10:43.120 I mean, I don't know.

00:10:44.140 It could be a thing.

00:10:46.160 So I just put that out there.

00:10:47.740 I hope you're not being as bad as them.

00:10:49.620 Let me give you some examples.

00:10:53.200 So I did a tweet,

00:10:54.260 and I'll talk to you about it later,

00:10:57.120 in which I got 10,000 retweets.

00:11:00.220 So getting 10,000 retweets is a lot, right,

00:11:03.640 for the size of my account,

00:11:06.100 would show massive agreement with what I tweeted.

00:11:09.280 20,000 likes, right?

00:11:12.960 So this is the tweet,

00:11:15.340 and by the way, there's nothing in it

00:11:17.180 that's controversial, really.

00:11:21.620 And somebody comments,

00:11:23.780 obviously somebody in the left,

00:11:25.340 Dilbert guy is trying so hard to be relevant.

00:11:29.460 And I'm thinking to myself,

00:11:31.080 if you tweet on the topic of the day,

00:11:34.760 which is the election controversy,

00:11:37.820 and you get 10,000 retweets

00:11:40.360 and 20,000 likes,

00:11:43.280 and you're doing a popular live stream,

00:11:48.020 and somebody tweets,

00:11:50.140 Dilbert guy is trying so hard to be relevant.

00:11:52.740 What does relevant look like to you?

00:11:54.860 And let me back up a little bit.

00:11:59.800 Who is it who's not trying to be relevant?

00:12:02.980 Is there anybody who wakes up in the morning and says,

00:12:07.080 you know, I think today I will achieve my goal

00:12:10.700 of being irrelevant to the world?

00:12:13.600 Shouldn't you all be trying to be relevant,

00:12:16.520 even if you're failing?

00:12:17.700 Wouldn't it be an honorable thing

00:12:21.260 to be attempting to be relevant,

00:12:24.160 even if it didn't work?

00:12:26.820 Right?

00:12:27.380 Now, I would argue that objectively,

00:12:29.600 you can look at the data,

00:12:31.040 and you would say that it is working,

00:12:33.200 in the sense that lots of people are paying attention,

00:12:36.060 as demonstrated by retweets and likes.

00:12:39.120 They're actually acting on it.

00:12:40.420 You know, they're clicking something.

00:12:42.960 So it's like this critic.

00:12:46.820 Now, obviously, I don't take any of the trolls too seriously.

00:12:50.820 I'm more interested in the mindset

00:12:52.560 and understanding, like, what's going on here.

00:12:56.440 What is this critic trying to accomplish?

00:12:59.440 It feels like it's just evil.

00:13:03.400 There's no point to it.

00:13:05.380 It's just being evil,

00:13:08.120 because it's a comment that's only directed

00:13:10.520 to make me feel bad.

00:13:12.480 It didn't, you know.

00:13:14.460 Obviously, I'm a professional,

00:13:15.880 so some little tweet isn't going to make me feel bad.

00:13:19.860 But it makes me curious.

00:13:21.940 Like, what the hell is wrong with you

00:13:23.880 that you would feel that this was a good use of your time?

00:13:28.540 All right.

00:13:29.020 Here's another one.

00:13:30.880 So I did a long tweet thread

00:13:33.500 about the brainwashing techniques

00:13:35.540 that Democrats are using.

00:13:36.880 I would say there's nothing in that tweet thread

00:13:39.840 that is even really provocative.

00:13:42.940 It's pretty much a routine analysis of word choice

00:13:46.960 and how those word choices are persuasive or not.

00:13:51.160 It's not even really political.

00:13:53.720 It's just about persuasion word choice.

00:13:56.280 And somebody tweets at the Denver Post,

00:14:00.760 which is one of my client newspapers.

00:14:04.000 They tweet at the Denver Post with my thread and say,

00:14:08.800 can we talk about the Dilbert guy?

00:14:11.780 Meaning that they would like to get me kicked out

00:14:14.620 of the Denver newspaper

00:14:16.020 because I did a tweet that has no provocative content in it.

00:14:21.080 He just doesn't like it.

00:14:22.580 That's it.

00:14:24.280 He doesn't like the tweet,

00:14:26.020 so he wants me to lose my job.

00:14:29.460 I didn't say anything that was even accused

00:14:32.120 of being offensive to anybody.

00:14:36.400 I was not accused of being inaccurate about anything.

00:14:41.320 So I'm not being accused of being wrong

00:14:43.840 or offensive or dangerous or anything.

00:14:50.420 He just didn't like my opinion.

00:14:52.580 And he thinks I should lose my job over that.

00:14:56.580 That's where we're at.

00:14:58.520 Now, are Republicans like that?

00:15:01.320 I don't think so, but I could be wrong.

00:15:04.620 All right.

00:15:06.920 So today, like every other day,

00:15:10.020 there's something that happens to me every single day.

00:15:14.680 And it goes like this.

00:15:16.720 Hey, Scott, here's a very credible study

00:15:20.440 that says wearing masks doesn't work.

00:15:24.360 Doesn't work at all.

00:15:25.620 Followed by somebody else.

00:15:28.940 Hey, Scott, here's a study, and lots of them,

00:15:32.380 that proved that masks work.

00:15:34.180 Definitely.

00:15:35.840 Every day.

00:15:37.440 Every fucking day,

00:15:39.220 somebody sends me a study that says masks work

00:15:43.020 and one that says masks don't work.

00:15:45.620 And they all look credible to me.

00:15:49.080 What the hell do I know?

00:15:51.200 You know, half of studies get debunked eventually.

00:15:54.960 But I can't tell.

00:15:57.380 So I tell you,

00:16:00.180 the concept of trusting the experts

00:16:03.560 is the stupidest fucking thing

00:16:06.840 in the public right now.

00:16:08.980 Don't fucking trust experts.

00:16:13.080 Why?

00:16:13.940 Is it because they're wrong?

00:16:16.580 No.

00:16:18.060 It's because you don't know.

00:16:20.320 You can't judge which expert is right,

00:16:24.480 let's say on the mask question,

00:16:26.780 because they're experts on both sides.

00:16:28.540 You can't judge which of those experts are right.

00:16:30.780 With what?

00:16:32.300 Your secret fucking powers?

00:16:35.280 You don't have any,

00:16:36.900 none of your five senses

00:16:38.520 have evolved to tell which expert

00:16:41.720 having opposite opinions

00:16:43.680 with opposite complex studies

00:16:46.060 that you can't look into,

00:16:47.600 even if you wanted to.

00:16:49.360 You can't fucking tell which expert is right.

00:16:53.140 Listen to the experts

00:16:54.320 is the dumbest fucking thing

00:16:56.500 in the whole fucking world.

00:16:59.120 Do you know what else is as dumb as that?

00:17:04.760 We should not impugn the trust

00:17:08.080 in our institutions.

00:17:09.940 You're hearing that a lot, right?

00:17:12.380 If blah, blah, blah,

00:17:14.040 Trump does this or that,

00:17:16.060 it will cause people to lose trust

00:17:18.460 in the election process.

00:17:22.120 Good.

00:17:23.340 Fucking good.

00:17:24.520 We should lose all trust

00:17:27.500 in our institutions.

00:17:29.320 How about the news?

00:17:30.780 Should you trust the news?

00:17:32.560 No.

00:17:33.340 Don't fucking trust the news.

00:17:35.420 Ever.

00:17:36.440 Don't ever fucking trust the news.

00:17:39.440 Don't trust the elections.

00:17:41.480 Don't trust the fucking news.

00:17:43.180 Don't trust Congress.

00:17:44.540 Don't trust any elected official.

00:17:46.520 Don't trust any institution.

00:17:48.480 Don't trust your fucking teachers' unions.

00:17:50.620 Don't fucking trust anyone.

00:17:56.580 That's your healthy situation.

00:17:59.440 Instead of trust,

00:18:01.780 build a good system.

00:18:04.480 Put transparency into your system.

00:18:06.720 Do you know why I trust Trump

00:18:10.560 more than, let's say, his critics do?

00:18:14.080 Because the presidency

00:18:15.320 is probably the most transparent job

00:18:18.640 in the whole world.

00:18:20.320 Well, that's an exaggeration,

00:18:21.860 but it's a super transparent job.

00:18:24.480 If he did a lot of the things

00:18:26.700 he would be accused of,

00:18:28.140 the odds of detection

00:18:29.280 are close to 100%.

00:18:31.380 It's the most transparent job ever.

00:18:35.080 Take the election.

00:18:36.820 Should we trust the election next time?

00:18:39.240 No.

00:18:40.200 Don't fucking trust the next election.

00:18:42.300 Don't even trust it a little bit.

00:18:45.340 If your election professionals

00:18:47.440 have not added a whole bunch of transparency

00:18:50.580 that isn't there now,

00:18:53.140 don't fucking trust it.

00:18:54.860 Don't trust this one.

00:18:56.020 Don't trust the next one.

00:18:57.860 Now, will this lack of trust

00:19:00.900 destroy civilization?

00:19:03.660 Will it destroy the country?

00:19:05.860 No.

00:19:06.740 No.

00:19:07.060 Because there's a thing we have

00:19:08.920 in this country, in America,

00:19:10.960 and I can't speak for other countries.

00:19:13.120 It might be, you know,

00:19:14.160 maybe it's just true

00:19:14.900 for a lot of countries.

00:19:16.020 But there is a thing we have here

00:19:17.960 in America

00:19:19.360 that other people don't have.

00:19:22.140 And that thing is super, super strong.

00:19:25.740 We're Americans.

00:19:27.640 That's it.

00:19:29.140 That's it.

00:19:30.740 We're Americans.

00:19:31.760 We're not going to break our fucking country.

00:19:35.920 We're just not going to do it.

00:19:37.780 We don't want to.

00:19:39.580 We don't want to break America.

00:19:42.020 So we won't.

00:19:43.640 But we will break our fucking institutions.

00:19:46.840 We will break any fucking thing we have to

00:19:49.880 to keep the country together.

00:19:52.400 All right?

00:19:52.820 We don't fucking care about our institutions.

00:19:56.220 Nothing.

00:19:56.680 We do care about America.

00:19:59.360 We will protect it.

00:20:01.640 We don't care about our fucking institutions.

00:20:05.980 Don't care about them.

00:20:08.600 All right.

00:20:14.380 Let's talk about the teachers' unions.

00:20:17.280 I believe that like Antifa,

00:20:19.820 Antifa did a very clever thing persuasion-wise.

00:20:24.760 Antifa created a name for themselves

00:20:28.320 called anti-fascist.

00:20:31.140 And then when people said to them,

00:20:32.760 as they obviously would,

00:20:34.060 hey, aren't you acting like fascists?

00:20:38.160 And then Antifa and then their pets in the news say,

00:20:42.800 oh, you fool.

00:20:44.280 You fools.

00:20:46.040 We're acting like fascists?

00:20:48.160 Have you even seen the name of our organization?

00:20:51.580 Anti.

00:20:52.840 Anti.

00:20:53.400 Anti.

00:20:54.760 Fascists.

00:20:55.980 So if you're against us,

00:20:58.200 and we're anti-fascists,

00:21:02.760 logically,

00:21:04.560 you would be a fascist.

00:21:07.740 And because people are fucking idiots,

00:21:11.540 that actually works.

00:21:13.700 There are actually people who think,

00:21:15.240 oh, that makes sense.

00:21:16.200 Oh, we're anti-fascists.

00:21:17.540 If you're anti-anti-fascist,

00:21:18.960 oh, negative, negative.

00:21:20.380 Oh, I guess you're a fascist.

00:21:21.940 Now, that kind of persuasion shouldn't work,

00:21:28.820 but we observe that it does, right?

00:21:31.820 Because persuasion is about the irrational process.

00:21:34.600 It's not about anything that's rational.

00:21:36.660 So I suggest, given that the teachers' unions are the poison that is destroying civilization,

00:21:44.840 I don't think that's too strong.

00:21:46.540 Is that too strong?

00:21:47.580 To say that the teachers' unions are the poison-destroying civilization.

00:21:52.580 I feel like that's not even hyperbole.

00:21:56.680 They're the cause of, or at least the perpetuation of systemic racism.

00:22:02.340 Because if every black kid had a quality education,

00:22:06.900 do you think there would be as much, you know, differences in outcomes?

00:22:11.820 There wouldn't be as much.

00:22:13.700 I mean, I don't know if there would be differences,

00:22:15.320 but it wouldn't be as much.

00:22:17.120 So the teachers' unions are by far the most evil, pernicious part of life.

00:22:25.340 But I think they should not be called teachers' unions, and here's why.

00:22:30.980 Teachers are still good, all right?

00:22:35.340 When I talk about teachers' unions, I'm not talking about teachers.

00:22:40.320 You know, there may be some overlap,

00:22:42.560 but I'm not talking about the person who just, you know,

00:22:45.140 dedicates their life to teaching children and making their lives better.

00:22:49.400 The teachers are fine, mostly.

00:22:51.920 You know, they're not all great, but I'm not talking about the teachers.

00:22:55.340 I'm talking about the unions who are now keeping kids out of school in some places,

00:23:01.300 despite science, apparently.

00:23:05.600 And this is a crushing blow to those children, but the teachers' unions persist.

00:23:10.480 So here's the name I would give them.

00:23:12.220 Because teachers sounds good, and unions sounds good, right?

00:23:16.800 Just as words, as independent words.

00:23:20.140 We generally like unions, right?

00:23:23.020 I don't think the country would be nearly as well off if unions had never existed.

00:23:28.380 But, like everything, you can have too much of a good thing.

00:23:31.600 You know, not everything is as good as everything else.

00:23:35.240 So rather than having a name, teachers, which is good, and unions, which is generally good,

00:23:41.760 how about calling them the anti-child union, the anti-children union, or anti-child.

00:23:49.960 I can't decide if child or children is better.

00:23:53.780 But I think I'm going to call them the hashtag anti-child union,

00:23:57.660 because that feels closer to what's happening, right?

00:24:00.520 The whole point of the teachers' union is to benefit the teachers.

00:24:05.840 The whole point of school is to benefit the children.

00:24:11.740 Are you with me?

00:24:13.000 School is to benefit children.

00:24:16.020 Teachers' unions are, by design, the intention of them is to benefit teachers.

00:24:21.460 Are those the same?

00:24:23.560 No, they're not.

00:24:24.840 They're not.

00:24:25.720 And if what's good for the children happens to be,

00:24:29.320 and let's say in this coronavirus situation that might be the case,

00:24:32.560 bad for the teachers,

00:24:34.760 it creates a situation where the teachers have to be anti-child.

00:24:40.760 Because that's their job.

00:24:42.640 Their job is to be pro-teacher.

00:24:44.160 And if they feel that the best way to do that is also being anti-child,

00:24:49.960 well, they will be.

00:24:51.340 That's their mission, to be pro-teacher.

00:24:54.780 All right.

00:24:59.220 How about this?

00:25:02.940 You know, one of the things that Trump gets a lot of heat for

00:25:06.960 is hiring sketchy people like, you know, Paul Manafort, et cetera.

00:25:12.000 I don't need to go through the list.

00:25:14.160 But that takes some attention away from the fact that

00:25:17.340 some of his hires are really spectacular.

00:25:21.760 For example, I think Pompeo is doing a great job, in my opinion.

00:25:26.720 I think Jared Kushner gets a lot of heat from conservatives.

00:25:30.580 But didn't Jared Kushner do a great job in the Middle East?

00:25:34.480 Right?

00:25:35.040 I mean, I think maybe a fantastic job.

00:25:38.020 And I would say that given all the heat that, take all the heat that Ivanka has gotten.

00:25:46.160 You know, who's gotten more heat than Ivanka?

00:25:49.680 But four years are going by.

00:25:53.320 How would you say she did?

00:25:55.620 Pretty darn great, wouldn't you say?

00:25:58.240 Lots of accomplishments in terms of human trafficking, a whole bunch of stuff.

00:26:02.020 Has she caused any problems?

00:26:06.020 Nope.

00:26:06.980 I would say that Ivanka has been 100% positive.

00:26:12.440 Everything she did that I know of looks like it worked out well.

00:26:17.040 And it was nothing but good for the administration, good for the country.

00:26:20.660 Those are good hires.

00:26:21.860 But the one I wanted to talk about is Kayleigh McEnany.

00:26:24.920 That's probably the best hire he's ever made.

00:26:27.220 What do you think about that?

00:26:29.880 I mean, I don't know how well any cabinet member is doing.

00:26:33.900 It's not like I have any visibility on that.

00:26:36.320 But Kayleigh McEnany is probably just about the best I've ever seen in that job.

00:26:44.240 And there have been good people in those jobs.

00:26:46.240 I'm not knocking anybody else who did the job,

00:26:49.920 because there have been great people in those jobs fairly consistently over history.

00:26:55.080 But I think she's the best.

00:26:57.220 And I'm seeing in the comments a lot of agreement there.

00:27:00.580 So yesterday, I guess CNN's Caitlin Collins was shouting out questions to the nature of,

00:27:07.240 when will President Trump concede?

00:27:11.360 And McEnany is walking off and she just goes,

00:27:14.480 I don't call on activists.

00:27:17.200 I don't call on activists.

00:27:19.700 Kind of perfect.

00:27:22.760 All right.

00:27:23.800 All right.

00:27:24.660 Here's some fun.

00:27:25.360 You could recall that during the Trump first term,

00:27:32.060 I often talked about how the Democrats were using what I called laundry list persuasion.

00:27:38.000 I talk about it in my book, Loser Think,

00:27:41.140 and maybe in Winn-Bigley.

00:27:43.220 I can't remember.

00:27:44.720 But laundry list persuasion works really well,

00:27:48.020 because people will say to themselves,

00:27:51.120 well, I'm not sure I believe everything on the list,

00:27:54.720 but there's so much on the list,

00:27:56.500 there must be some truth to the general claim.

00:27:59.060 So the way the Democrats used it,

00:28:02.140 they'd say Trump is a racist,

00:28:05.140 and here's my laundry list of all the reasons.

00:28:07.940 But if you looked at the reasons,

00:28:09.800 they all just sort of fall apart.

00:28:11.860 So there's no reason on the list that actually can stand up to any scrutiny.

00:28:17.260 But because it's a list,

00:28:19.440 you think to yourself,

00:28:20.480 well, I don't know much about everything on the list.

00:28:22.920 I can tell a few of them don't look too real,

00:28:25.460 but hey, it's a whole list.

00:28:27.680 There must be something to it.

00:28:29.420 It's a list.

00:28:31.260 Now, I've told you that the way to debunk that

00:28:33.740 is to not try to go through the entire list,

00:28:36.740 because you just can't do it.

00:28:38.400 But you can say,

00:28:39.700 tell me the strongest thing on the list,

00:28:42.160 and I'll just debunk that one.

00:28:44.180 And if you agree with my debunk,

00:28:46.880 then you can see that

00:28:48.060 if I've debunked the strongest reason on the list,

00:28:50.960 what does that say about the weak ones?

00:28:54.640 So that's the setup for the laundry list.

00:28:58.200 So what's happening with the Trump administration right now

00:29:06.380 as they're challenging the election,

00:29:08.600 they're using laundry list persuasion against the election,

00:29:12.640 and it's working.

00:29:14.760 Now, the thing about laundry list persuasion

00:29:17.220 is it's really...

00:29:19.220 let's just say it's not the most honest thing you could do.

00:29:25.100 But it works.

00:29:26.740 And in the political process,

00:29:29.200 if something's not quite exactly honest,

00:29:31.620 but it works,

00:29:33.120 it's going to happen.

00:29:34.160 So watching the Trump administration

00:29:36.360 use laundry list accusations about the election

00:29:41.120 is pretty fun.

00:29:43.520 But there's a catch.

00:29:48.900 What would you...

00:29:50.200 Let me ask you viewers.

00:29:54.280 In your opinion,

00:29:56.100 having heard lots of different examples

00:29:58.400 of alleged election impropriety,

00:30:02.980 which one of those

00:30:04.580 is number one on your list

00:30:06.720 for being not only likely true,

00:30:10.060 but big enough to make a difference?

00:30:11.960 All right?

00:30:13.440 So I want to see in the comments

00:30:14.780 what do you think

00:30:16.380 is the one thing on the list

00:30:19.280 that really stands out.

00:30:21.800 Okay?

00:30:22.260 So I'm reading the comments.

00:30:23.680 I'm seeing software.

00:30:25.040 Dominion,

00:30:25.720 Dominion,

00:30:26.320 Software,

00:30:26.840 Dominion.

00:30:28.060 Dominion,

00:30:28.740 Dominion,

00:30:29.420 Software,

00:30:30.000 Software,

00:30:30.940 Software,

00:30:31.800 Software,

00:30:32.220 Software.

00:30:33.200 Dominion,

00:30:33.880 Dominion,

00:30:34.300 Dominion.

00:30:34.620 Okay.

00:30:35.740 So I think I've seen enough

00:30:38.100 to know that you believe

00:30:42.480 that the software mischief

00:30:45.500 is the big story.

00:30:47.900 And if you were to present a list,

00:30:50.280 you'd probably have lots of things on your list.

00:30:53.000 But you'd put that at the top, right?

00:30:57.080 Well, there's a problem.

00:30:58.620 The software story sort of seems to be hanging

00:31:03.240 on this Venezuelan whistleblower, right?

00:31:07.640 Would you be nearly as convinced

00:31:10.040 with the Venezuelan,

00:31:13.060 with the software story,

00:31:15.320 would you be convinced of that as much

00:31:17.640 without that whistleblower?

00:31:19.960 Because I don't think you would, right?

00:31:22.880 You kind of need a witness

00:31:24.020 for something like that.

00:31:26.320 And now you have this witness

00:31:27.580 who says he was in the room,

00:31:29.960 he saw it personally,

00:31:31.240 in the Venezuela situation,

00:31:33.220 so therefore,

00:31:34.740 blah, blah, blah, right?

00:31:36.620 Here's the problem.

00:31:38.500 Have you ever heard of a thing

00:31:39.700 called disinformation?

00:31:43.600 Well, you're going to hear about it now.

00:31:46.280 In big foreign,

00:31:48.420 not foreign,

00:31:50.080 but let's say international

00:31:51.360 relations and interactions,

00:31:55.560 there's a thing called disinformation,

00:31:58.440 in which one country

00:31:59.600 would intentionally create a story

00:32:02.340 that's not true

00:32:03.360 and present it to the public

00:32:06.220 of another country

00:32:07.300 so that they could deal

00:32:09.820 with the fake thing

00:32:11.340 and it would cause some damage

00:32:13.080 to their society

00:32:14.080 one way or the other.

00:32:16.780 Do you think

00:32:17.540 that in an American election,

00:32:20.560 especially this one,

00:32:22.020 do you think that there was

00:32:23.040 any party involved,

00:32:25.140 be they foreign

00:32:26.440 or be they Democrats?

00:32:29.320 Could be domestic or foreign.

00:32:31.440 Was there anybody

00:32:32.020 who had an interest

00:32:33.480 in disinformation?

00:32:37.080 Yes.

00:32:38.600 You'd all agree with that, right?

00:32:40.520 They had an interest in doing it.

00:32:42.400 China has an interest

00:32:44.540 in weakening the United States.

00:32:46.680 Whether they did it or not

00:32:47.840 is a separate question.

00:32:49.500 Do Democrats have an interest

00:32:51.240 in disinformation

00:32:52.900 if it could help them

00:32:54.280 get elected?

00:32:55.680 Of course.

00:32:56.840 Yes.

00:32:57.440 So we have,

00:32:58.380 we have the,

00:32:59.440 we know we have the motive

00:33:00.660 and it's massive

00:33:02.140 and it's everywhere.

00:33:03.820 Anybody who had the ability

00:33:05.400 to inject disinformation,

00:33:09.320 there's a pretty high chance

00:33:10.540 they tried it, all right?

00:33:12.700 Now what would it look like

00:33:14.240 if they did it?

00:33:16.260 If you were,

00:33:16.980 let's say you were professional.

00:33:18.680 You're not just a troll.

00:33:20.760 Trolls are putting disinformation

00:33:22.240 into the system all the time.

00:33:24.300 But when trolls do it,

00:33:25.740 it's not necessarily

00:33:27.540 going to reach

00:33:28.020 a high level of notice, right?

00:33:30.260 Because people know,

00:33:31.140 ah, it came from a troll.

00:33:32.720 But suppose it comes from

00:33:34.040 what look like credible sources

00:33:35.880 or institutions.

00:33:37.880 What then?

00:33:40.580 Well, then it looks

00:33:41.400 kind of believable.

00:33:42.960 Doesn't mean it's true,

00:33:44.460 but it's going to be

00:33:45.420 more credible

00:33:46.000 if it comes from

00:33:46.680 a good source.

00:33:48.300 So what would it look like

00:33:50.380 if, let's say,

00:33:52.080 Democrats

00:33:52.640 had hired

00:33:54.220 the best

00:33:55.540 disinformation professionals

00:33:57.520 in the world

00:33:58.380 and their primary mission

00:34:00.840 was to make it look

00:34:03.240 as though

00:34:03.940 the Trump team's

00:34:06.380 claims

00:34:07.040 were illegitimate?

00:34:09.900 What would you do?

00:34:11.440 How would you do it?

00:34:13.340 Given that the Trump team

00:34:14.720 is using

00:34:15.220 laundry list persuasion

00:34:16.880 and given that

00:34:18.300 if you can debunk

00:34:19.220 the strongest

00:34:19.880 thing on the list,

00:34:22.060 you've kind of

00:34:22.920 debunked the whole list.

00:34:24.580 Not completely,

00:34:25.560 but it's the best

00:34:26.120 you can do.

00:34:27.240 What would you do?

00:34:28.000 What would be

00:34:28.380 your strongest play?

00:34:31.520 Your strongest play

00:34:32.940 would be to create

00:34:34.460 a number one

00:34:36.340 issue

00:34:37.400 that isn't real.

00:34:40.400 And that would look like

00:34:42.060 a Venezuelan whistleblower.

00:34:45.080 If you were a

00:34:46.200 disinformation professional,

00:34:48.320 like really,

00:34:49.060 really good at it,

00:34:50.600 you'd say to yourself,

00:34:51.780 if we can embarrass

00:34:53.000 the Trump team

00:34:53.940 with this one

00:34:55.220 obviously

00:34:56.060 bullshit claim

00:34:57.580 about a Venezuelan

00:34:59.300 whistleblower,

00:35:00.480 and we can get people

00:35:01.780 to think that

00:35:02.320 that was the main

00:35:03.420 claim,

00:35:04.540 we can debunk

00:35:06.380 the whole

00:35:07.040 fucking thing.

00:35:09.540 And then you look

00:35:10.480 at that claim

00:35:11.060 and you say to yourself,

00:35:12.640 uh,

00:35:13.560 it looks exactly

00:35:14.840 like disinformation.

00:35:16.840 And it's in

00:35:17.800 exactly the right

00:35:18.900 place

00:35:19.580 for disinformation.

00:35:23.280 Now,

00:35:24.140 do I know

00:35:25.260 for sure

00:35:25.840 that somebody

00:35:27.460 injected

00:35:28.120 disinformation

00:35:29.060 into it

00:35:29.880 and it's that

00:35:30.980 in particular?

00:35:32.540 No.

00:35:33.740 No,

00:35:34.080 I do not.

00:35:35.040 But I will tell you,

00:35:36.600 it looks exactly

00:35:37.840 like it.

00:35:39.860 I will tell you

00:35:41.020 that

00:35:41.340 I'm not the one

00:35:42.920 person who noticed.

00:35:45.980 Let me give you

00:35:47.340 an assignment.

00:35:49.460 Probably most of you

00:35:51.120 could find

00:35:52.160 at least

00:35:52.700 somebody

00:35:53.340 who's involved

00:35:54.300 or has been

00:35:55.380 involved in,

00:35:56.840 let's say,

00:35:57.980 intelligence services.

00:36:00.620 Find somebody

00:36:01.660 in your,

00:36:02.340 in your

00:36:03.000 environment,

00:36:04.240 might be a friend

00:36:05.120 of a friend

00:36:05.560 or something,

00:36:06.040 who actually

00:36:07.120 understands

00:36:07.960 the disinformation

00:36:08.980 world.

00:36:11.460 Tell them

00:36:11.940 what I just

00:36:12.500 told you,

00:36:13.920 that I,

00:36:14.580 that there's

00:36:15.080 at least

00:36:15.480 a possibility

00:36:16.560 that somebody

00:36:18.320 wanted to ruin

00:36:19.140 the laundry list

00:36:20.300 persuasion

00:36:21.020 of the

00:36:21.800 Trump

00:36:22.120 legal team

00:36:22.940 and that

00:36:23.980 they might

00:36:24.580 have done

00:36:25.000 it by

00:36:25.960 injecting

00:36:26.520 this

00:36:26.780 obviously

00:36:27.780 bullshit

00:36:28.480 story

00:36:28.920 about

00:36:29.140 the

00:36:29.360 Venezuelan

00:36:30.040 whistleblower.

00:36:31.660 Just ask

00:36:32.500 them.

00:36:33.160 And then say,

00:36:34.200 is the cartoonist

00:36:35.980 crazy

00:36:36.560 or is this

00:36:38.560 a thing?

00:36:40.360 And then

00:36:41.040 get back

00:36:41.400 to me.

00:36:42.780 Because it's

00:36:43.500 a thing.

00:36:44.840 And the odds

00:36:45.680 that it happened

00:36:46.580 in this election,

00:36:48.760 whether it's

00:36:49.520 this specific

00:36:50.200 case or

00:36:51.080 just some

00:36:51.840 other

00:36:52.080 disinformation,

00:36:53.600 the odds

00:36:54.680 that it

00:36:55.080 happened

00:36:55.500 are kind

00:36:56.900 of 100%.

00:36:57.940 Really,

00:36:59.780 they're kind

00:37:00.140 of 100%.

00:37:01.000 We don't

00:37:01.620 know what

00:37:02.100 disinformation

00:37:02.640 necessarily.

00:37:04.140 That's a

00:37:04.480 different question.

00:37:06.280 But did it

00:37:06.980 exist?

00:37:08.620 Yes.

00:37:10.360 Yes,

00:37:11.240 it exists.

00:37:13.800 And probably

00:37:14.940 came from

00:37:15.520 Democrats more

00:37:16.400 likely than

00:37:17.120 foreign,

00:37:17.780 but that's

00:37:18.180 just a

00:37:18.760 feeling.

00:37:19.520 All right.

00:37:22.280 What would

00:37:23.260 the Trump

00:37:24.260 legal team

00:37:25.160 do if

00:37:26.540 they suspected

00:37:27.400 this was

00:37:28.100 the case?

00:37:29.540 Because I've

00:37:30.380 heard people

00:37:30.820 say,

00:37:31.640 is Sidney

00:37:32.240 Powell

00:37:32.580 lying or

00:37:35.260 does she

00:37:35.660 have the

00:37:36.080 goods?

00:37:37.340 Is she

00:37:37.900 just making

00:37:38.580 this story

00:37:39.200 up?

00:37:40.580 Because,

00:37:41.380 you know,

00:37:41.580 we're waiting

00:37:41.980 for the

00:37:42.380 proof.

00:37:43.600 Here's what

00:37:44.240 I think is

00:37:44.880 happening.

00:37:46.120 All right.

00:37:46.460 So I'm

00:37:46.680 going to,

00:37:47.000 this is pure

00:37:47.740 speculation.

00:37:48.500 I think

00:37:50.440 that Sidney

00:37:51.640 Powell and

00:37:52.520 the legal

00:37:52.960 team does

00:37:54.180 not believe

00:37:57.080 the whistleblower.

00:37:59.240 Just a guess.

00:38:00.640 I haven't asked

00:38:01.520 them that

00:38:01.860 question.

00:38:02.760 I don't know.

00:38:04.000 My guess is

00:38:05.500 that they don't

00:38:06.040 believe it.

00:38:07.280 But it is

00:38:09.040 nonetheless

00:38:09.460 true that it

00:38:11.640 has been

00:38:12.040 presented to

00:38:12.860 them in a

00:38:13.800 credible-ish

00:38:16.180 package.

00:38:17.140 their job

00:38:18.840 is to

00:38:19.300 make the

00:38:19.660 president's

00:38:20.260 case as

00:38:21.060 well as

00:38:21.560 they can.

00:38:23.060 And so

00:38:23.500 it would

00:38:24.060 have been

00:38:24.560 maybe

00:38:25.480 irresponsible

00:38:26.340 if they

00:38:27.160 had not

00:38:27.840 included it

00:38:28.900 in the

00:38:29.460 case.

00:38:30.300 Because it

00:38:31.080 exists,

00:38:32.520 the claim

00:38:33.100 is made

00:38:33.660 by somebody

00:38:35.000 who might

00:38:36.740 have been

00:38:37.000 in the

00:38:37.300 room.

00:38:38.580 So you

00:38:39.240 sort of

00:38:39.760 have to

00:38:40.260 at least

00:38:40.600 put it

00:38:41.000 out there,

00:38:41.940 which is

00:38:42.720 different from

00:38:43.380 whether they

00:38:43.960 believe it

00:38:44.540 themselves.

00:38:46.160 My suspicion

00:38:47.040 is that

00:38:48.360 they at

00:38:48.700 least have

00:38:49.120 a deep

00:38:49.600 skepticism.

00:38:51.760 Probably

00:38:52.200 just a

00:38:52.640 deep

00:38:52.820 skepticism.

00:38:54.040 But they

00:38:54.480 still have

00:38:54.820 to put it

00:38:55.120 out there.

00:38:55.680 Remember,

00:38:56.020 the lawyers

00:38:56.440 are working

00:38:56.880 for a

00:38:57.240 client.

00:38:58.160 If the

00:38:58.520 client says,

00:38:59.400 well,

00:39:00.280 we don't

00:39:00.960 know,

00:39:01.360 but put it

00:39:01.740 out there,

00:39:02.200 see what

00:39:02.480 happens.

00:39:04.100 Now,

00:39:04.660 that's

00:39:05.040 different from

00:39:05.580 saying that

00:39:06.060 the software

00:39:06.640 was unmolested.

00:39:08.340 I still

00:39:08.840 think there's

00:39:09.380 a 100%

00:39:09.920 chance

00:39:10.380 that voting

00:39:12.180 software gets

00:39:13.160 compromised

00:39:13.820 sooner or

00:39:15.180 later.

00:39:16.140 I don't

00:39:16.460 know if

00:39:16.660 it's

00:39:16.800 happened yet,

00:39:17.960 but you

00:39:18.360 can guarantee

00:39:19.000 it will

00:39:19.320 happen.

00:39:20.060 There's no

00:39:20.620 way to

00:39:20.860 stop it,

00:39:21.280 really,

00:39:22.420 eventually,

00:39:24.140 without

00:39:24.760 transparency.

00:39:26.040 Actually,

00:39:26.480 transparency would

00:39:27.440 be the one

00:39:27.880 way to stop

00:39:28.440 it.

00:39:28.640 If you

00:39:28.900 made the

00:39:29.380 code available

00:39:30.380 somehow to

00:39:31.220 everybody,

00:39:32.000 I suppose you

00:39:32.500 could stop

00:39:32.920 it.

00:39:34.080 There might

00:39:34.740 be some

00:39:35.140 way to

00:39:35.460 technologically

00:39:36.140 do that.

00:39:40.380 somebody says

00:39:42.260 release the

00:39:42.880 damn source

00:39:43.500 code.

00:39:43.920 Suppose they

00:39:44.360 did.

00:39:44.740 Would you

00:39:45.060 believe it

00:39:45.480 was the

00:39:45.800 real source

00:39:46.360 code?

00:39:47.280 Would you

00:39:47.740 believe that

00:39:48.280 they don't

00:39:48.600 have patches

00:39:50.200 and upgrades

00:39:51.000 that can

00:39:51.480 alter the

00:39:52.520 actions of

00:39:54.200 the source

00:39:54.540 code?

00:39:55.500 I think

00:39:56.240 even auditing

00:39:57.160 the source

00:39:57.720 code wouldn't

00:39:58.560 necessarily get

00:39:59.640 you there.

00:40:01.240 I'd do it,

00:40:02.320 but I don't

00:40:02.720 think it would

00:40:03.080 necessarily be

00:40:03.720 conclusive.

00:40:05.140 All right.

00:40:07.780 Here's a...

00:40:09.180 So my tweet

00:40:09.920 that I mentioned

00:40:10.420 that got all

00:40:10.960 those retweets,

00:40:12.200 I'm going to

00:40:12.860 run through it

00:40:13.400 again quickly

00:40:14.020 because it's

00:40:15.600 my laundry

00:40:17.520 list, if you

00:40:18.160 will, of

00:40:19.300 persuasion

00:40:19.880 techniques that

00:40:20.740 the Democrats

00:40:21.420 are using.

00:40:21.940 I've mentioned

00:40:22.280 these before,

00:40:22.900 so I'll just

00:40:23.220 do them

00:40:23.480 quickly.

00:40:24.340 They use

00:40:24.840 refuses to

00:40:25.700 concede,

00:40:27.120 that makes

00:40:27.700 you think

00:40:28.060 past the

00:40:28.540 sale, as

00:40:29.680 though Trump

00:40:30.580 should concede.

00:40:32.800 We haven't

00:40:33.480 accepted that,

00:40:34.980 but if they

00:40:35.420 say, why

00:40:35.860 won't he

00:40:36.300 concede,

00:40:37.200 they're making

00:40:37.620 you think

00:40:38.000 past the

00:40:38.440 sale.

00:40:38.720 That's

00:40:38.900 persuasion.

00:40:39.380 They're

00:40:40.000 calling a

00:40:40.540 simple

00:40:40.900 recount an

00:40:41.640 audit to

00:40:42.720 fool you

00:40:43.200 into thinking

00:40:43.720 they really

00:40:44.160 checked for

00:40:44.680 fraud, but

00:40:45.340 a recount

00:40:46.220 doesn't even

00:40:46.780 do that.

00:40:48.100 They're saying

00:40:48.800 no evidence

00:40:49.520 when in fact

00:40:50.560 there's tons

00:40:51.140 of evidence

00:40:51.740 in the forms

00:40:52.620 of affidavits.

00:40:54.340 They just

00:40:54.660 look you in

00:40:58.880 the eye and

00:40:59.320 say there's

00:40:59.660 no evidence.

00:41:01.140 There's no

00:41:01.900 proof,

00:41:02.880 because that

00:41:03.820 ends up

00:41:04.320 happening in

00:41:05.020 court or in

00:41:05.960 a scientific

00:41:06.440 context,

00:41:07.120 but evidence,

00:41:09.020 all kinds

00:41:09.600 of evidence.

00:41:10.900 So that's

00:41:11.420 just persuasion.

00:41:12.900 They say it

00:41:13.520 would be

00:41:13.780 obvious if

00:41:14.760 there was

00:41:15.100 massive fraud,

00:41:16.660 but of course

00:41:17.120 Republicans think

00:41:18.080 it is obvious.

00:41:20.080 How the hell

00:41:20.620 did Biden

00:41:21.780 get that many

00:41:22.780 more votes

00:41:23.340 than Obama?

00:41:24.960 It looks

00:41:25.320 kind of obvious

00:41:26.100 to a lot

00:41:26.960 of people,

00:41:27.400 even if it

00:41:27.900 didn't happen.

00:41:28.500 It looks

00:41:28.860 obvious.

00:41:29.200 And then

00:41:31.300 lawsuits being

00:41:32.040 tossed out

00:41:32.540 of court,

00:41:33.320 but of course

00:41:34.080 the past

00:41:34.760 does not

00:41:35.480 predict the

00:41:36.240 future.

00:41:37.260 The fact

00:41:37.640 that somebody

00:41:38.180 else lost

00:41:39.620 a lawsuit

00:41:43.360 doesn't mean

00:41:44.920 the next

00:41:45.360 lawsuit is

00:41:45.980 bad.

00:41:47.640 That doesn't

00:41:48.640 make any

00:41:49.080 sense.

00:41:50.180 The fact

00:41:50.940 that other

00:41:51.420 people lost

00:41:52.220 other lawsuits,

00:41:53.940 what does

00:41:54.860 that tell you

00:41:55.420 about the

00:41:55.840 next one?

00:41:57.480 It shouldn't

00:41:57.940 tell you

00:41:58.260 anything, but

00:41:58.920 people feel

00:41:59.840 they see a

00:42:00.480 pattern there.

00:42:02.200 Then there's

00:42:03.040 the character

00:42:04.080 assassination by

00:42:05.140 bad analogy,

00:42:06.160 which is what

00:42:07.260 you see when

00:42:07.820 there's no

00:42:08.320 real argument.

00:42:09.660 So it

00:42:10.740 turns it into

00:42:11.560 Trump's legal

00:42:12.600 challenges or

00:42:13.480 McCarthyism or

00:42:14.640 racism or

00:42:16.400 dictatorism or

00:42:17.820 something.

00:42:19.400 And then of

00:42:22.780 course what

00:42:23.560 the media

00:42:24.100 leaves out

00:42:25.360 when they

00:42:26.940 can put

00:42:27.460 anybody on

00:42:28.060 camera that

00:42:28.580 says there's

00:42:30.540 no fraud or

00:42:31.660 we have

00:42:32.000 discovered no

00:42:32.740 fraud, what

00:42:33.660 they leave

00:42:34.080 out is the

00:42:34.740 person saying

00:42:35.400 that didn't

00:42:36.400 look for it.

00:42:38.040 Of course

00:42:38.820 there's no

00:42:39.620 evidence of

00:42:40.200 something you

00:42:40.740 didn't look

00:42:41.800 for.

00:42:44.320 And on that

00:42:45.220 point, the

00:42:47.220 two Michigan

00:42:48.200 lawmakers who

00:42:49.280 went to

00:42:49.680 visit Trump,

00:42:51.000 people got

00:42:51.760 pretty concerned

00:42:52.500 because they

00:42:52.940 said, hey,

00:42:53.840 is he going to

00:42:54.580 talk them into

00:42:55.360 not certifying

00:42:56.720 the election

00:42:58.700 in their

00:42:59.060 state?

00:43:00.300 And they

00:43:00.880 said, and I

00:43:02.180 want to find

00:43:02.640 the exact

00:43:03.260 quote because

00:43:05.060 the exact

00:43:05.500 quote matters.

00:43:10.960 I do have

00:43:11.800 that exact

00:43:12.260 quote and

00:43:13.380 you'll be happy

00:43:14.060 that you

00:43:14.400 waited because

00:43:14.940 it'll make you

00:43:15.420 so happy.

00:43:15.920 I guess I

00:43:21.660 hid it pretty

00:43:22.100 well.

00:43:25.300 Well, the

00:43:26.100 exact quote,

00:43:26.920 which apparently

00:43:27.920 I didn't print,

00:43:29.100 was that the

00:43:31.140 lawmakers said

00:43:32.140 they had not

00:43:33.380 yet seen any

00:43:34.720 evidence of

00:43:36.220 fraud in the

00:43:38.020 election.

00:43:39.840 Did you

00:43:40.580 catch the

00:43:41.420 key word

00:43:41.820 there?

00:43:42.860 The key word

00:43:43.720 was yet.

00:43:44.280 Who puts

00:43:46.300 yet in a

00:43:47.820 sentence like

00:43:48.480 that?

00:43:49.760 So the

00:43:50.400 lawmakers say,

00:43:51.940 we have not

00:43:52.440 yet seen

00:43:54.520 evidence that

00:43:55.820 the election

00:43:56.320 was fraudulent.

00:43:57.900 Do you know

00:43:58.580 how the news

00:43:59.440 reported the

00:44:00.700 statement,

00:44:01.840 we have not

00:44:02.400 yet seen

00:44:03.480 evidence?

00:44:05.020 They take

00:44:05.660 the yet out.

00:44:07.300 Watch the

00:44:07.840 yet be

00:44:09.320 dropped out

00:44:10.360 of the news

00:44:10.920 report.

00:44:12.340 That yet

00:44:13.040 is sort of

00:44:13.760 an important

00:44:14.200 word because

00:44:15.020 it left

00:44:15.620 their options

00:44:16.200 open.

00:44:17.560 But the

00:44:18.600 headline in

00:44:20.220 the trending

00:44:20.960 part, if you

00:44:21.620 look at the

00:44:21.980 trending on

00:44:22.520 Twitter, they

00:44:23.360 took the yet

00:44:23.880 out.

00:44:25.480 Now, let

00:44:26.740 me ask you

00:44:27.180 this.

00:44:28.160 Would those

00:44:28.920 two lawmakers

00:44:29.860 be in a

00:44:30.900 position as

00:44:31.920 of yesterday

00:44:32.700 to have

00:44:34.280 even potentially

00:44:35.220 seen any

00:44:37.000 evidence of

00:44:37.700 fraud, even

00:44:39.120 if it

00:44:39.560 existed?

00:44:39.940 it?

00:44:41.260 No.

00:44:42.300 No.

00:44:43.480 What's left

00:44:44.120 out of the

00:44:44.540 context is,

00:44:45.680 why would you

00:44:46.340 imagine that

00:44:46.980 those two

00:44:47.660 specific lawmakers

00:44:48.940 would have

00:44:49.940 seen any

00:44:50.460 evidence of

00:44:51.100 fraud?

00:44:53.040 Did Sidney

00:44:54.080 Powell have a

00:44:54.800 meeting with

00:44:55.300 them and show

00:44:55.880 them what she

00:44:56.460 has?

00:44:57.640 No.

00:44:58.800 No.

00:45:00.660 Why would

00:45:01.460 they have

00:45:01.860 evidence of

00:45:02.500 fraud?

00:45:03.200 So they put

00:45:03.760 in that word

00:45:04.300 yet as a

00:45:06.060 little place

00:45:06.500 marker.

00:45:06.840 It's like,

00:45:07.440 not yet.

00:45:09.920 And I would

00:45:10.680 agree with

00:45:11.060 them.

00:45:11.580 They have the

00:45:12.760 same information

00:45:13.420 I do, all

00:45:14.020 bad.

00:45:15.060 They watch

00:45:15.480 the news.

00:45:17.200 If all you

00:45:18.780 know is what's

00:45:19.400 on the news

00:45:20.180 and what's in

00:45:21.260 social media,

00:45:22.640 you also

00:45:23.440 don't know

00:45:24.900 there's

00:45:26.540 proof of

00:45:27.920 fraud.

00:45:29.280 You don't

00:45:29.660 know.

00:45:30.820 You just see

00:45:31.400 claims.

00:45:32.400 You see

00:45:32.800 claims, you

00:45:33.540 see debunks

00:45:34.240 of those

00:45:34.680 claims and

00:45:35.340 more claims.

00:45:35.940 that's all

00:45:36.760 you know.

00:45:37.860 You don't

00:45:38.240 know if

00:45:38.520 there's any

00:45:39.000 fraud.

00:45:40.340 I don't

00:45:40.720 know.

00:45:41.640 I believe

00:45:42.480 there is

00:45:43.020 because the

00:45:43.860 situation is

00:45:44.760 one in

00:45:45.640 which fraud

00:45:46.180 would happen

00:45:46.680 every time.

00:45:48.220 So I

00:45:49.040 don't know

00:45:49.280 how much,

00:45:50.640 but of

00:45:51.260 course it

00:45:51.780 exists.

00:45:53.360 All right.

00:45:55.980 Have you

00:45:56.640 noticed that

00:45:57.160 there's something

00:45:57.580 weird about

00:45:58.080 this virus

00:45:58.800 that it

00:45:59.680 seems to

00:46:00.180 attack

00:46:00.640 enjoyment?

00:46:03.020 Is that

00:46:03.720 just a

00:46:04.140 coincidence?

00:46:04.520 that the

00:46:05.680 only thing

00:46:06.200 you can't

00:46:06.780 do in

00:46:07.700 this

00:46:07.920 pandemic

00:46:08.400 is enjoy

00:46:09.080 yourself?

00:46:10.120 Because all

00:46:10.700 the things

00:46:11.120 that create

00:46:11.920 enjoyment are

00:46:12.720 exactly all

00:46:13.500 the things

00:46:13.840 you're not

00:46:14.160 supposed to

00:46:14.600 do.

00:46:15.180 You can

00:46:15.740 still work,

00:46:17.060 right?

00:46:19.340 But you

00:46:19.800 can still do

00:46:20.280 everything

00:46:20.940 unpleasant.

00:46:22.320 If it was

00:46:23.180 unpleasant before,

00:46:24.560 you can still

00:46:25.300 do it.

00:46:26.260 But if it's

00:46:27.020 fun,

00:46:28.440 no,

00:46:28.760 no fun.

00:46:33.000 So that's

00:46:33.660 kind of a

00:46:33.980 weird virus.

00:46:35.060 Coincidence?

00:46:35.860 I don't

00:46:36.180 know.

00:46:37.040 Maybe it's

00:46:37.460 trying to

00:46:37.780 teach us

00:46:38.220 something.

00:46:39.620 If you

00:46:40.240 believe in

00:46:40.700 the God

00:46:41.560 model of

00:46:42.260 reality,

00:46:43.920 maybe it's

00:46:44.700 a lesson.

00:46:46.700 Maybe you

00:46:47.840 didn't need

00:46:48.220 that fun.

00:46:49.640 You know,

00:46:49.900 I'll tell you,

00:46:50.400 one of the

00:46:51.060 weird things

00:46:51.680 that's coming

00:46:52.240 out of this

00:46:52.840 is realizing

00:46:54.720 what things

00:46:55.440 didn't matter

00:46:56.220 and what

00:46:57.140 things were

00:46:57.580 just habits.

00:46:58.600 Is anybody

00:46:59.040 having this

00:46:59.600 experience?

00:47:00.700 That you're

00:47:01.460 learning something

00:47:02.220 about yourself

00:47:03.120 that you

00:47:04.240 probably couldn't

00:47:05.020 have learned

00:47:05.600 without the

00:47:06.880 pandemic.

00:47:08.820 For example,

00:47:10.440 learning to

00:47:11.940 appreciate

00:47:12.740 having toilet

00:47:14.880 paper.

00:47:16.400 Before the

00:47:17.200 pandemic,

00:47:18.060 did you ever

00:47:18.860 look at your

00:47:19.420 roll of toilet

00:47:20.140 paper there

00:47:20.760 on the little

00:47:21.760 roller on the

00:47:22.440 wall and

00:47:23.420 think to

00:47:23.720 yourself,

00:47:24.960 dear God,

00:47:25.640 thank you.

00:47:27.180 I never

00:47:27.640 did.

00:47:28.060 I always

00:47:28.360 took my

00:47:28.740 toilet paper

00:47:29.340 for granted,

00:47:30.660 as well as

00:47:31.580 my food and

00:47:32.720 transportation and

00:47:34.120 health care and

00:47:34.820 everything else.

00:47:35.720 I feel I have a

00:47:36.920 sense of

00:47:37.420 gratitude for

00:47:39.580 everything I

00:47:40.880 have now that

00:47:42.880 exceeds anything I

00:47:44.220 could have

00:47:44.700 imagined before.

00:47:46.220 A little bit

00:47:46.840 like maybe people

00:47:47.660 who went through

00:47:48.080 the Depression,

00:47:48.980 the Great

00:47:49.280 Depression.

00:47:50.540 You know,

00:47:50.920 if you had any

00:47:51.780 parents or

00:47:52.280 grandparents who

00:47:52.840 went through the

00:47:53.280 Great Depression,

00:47:54.400 you notice they

00:47:55.100 don't throw

00:47:55.460 things out.

00:47:56.220 like just in

00:47:57.840 case, I've

00:47:58.980 got this

00:47:59.320 empty can.

00:48:00.360 Well, you

00:48:00.920 know, if

00:48:01.180 there's a

00:48:01.440 Great Depression,

00:48:02.220 that might be

00:48:02.720 my beverage

00:48:04.040 holder in the

00:48:05.220 future.

00:48:06.100 So I do

00:48:06.960 feel as though

00:48:07.680 there's something

00:48:08.420 weirdly

00:48:09.080 educational

00:48:13.380 about this

00:48:14.980 virus.

00:48:18.680 So

00:48:19.200 California

00:48:19.680 has instituted

00:48:20.920 a curfew

00:48:21.680 from 10 p.m.

00:48:22.640 to 5 a.m.

00:48:23.560 I understand

00:48:25.080 the 10 p.m.

00:48:25.940 part.

00:48:26.840 I don't really

00:48:27.740 understand the

00:48:28.400 5 a.m.

00:48:29.040 part.

00:48:30.240 Because I don't

00:48:30.660 know, do people

00:48:31.240 have a different

00:48:31.860 lifestyle than I

00:48:32.740 do?

00:48:33.300 Because I can see

00:48:34.260 being out to 2

00:48:35.140 in the morning.

00:48:36.700 I can see that

00:48:37.460 happening.

00:48:38.380 I can't see being

00:48:39.280 out to 5 in the

00:48:40.120 morning.

00:48:40.320 I know it's a

00:48:42.900 thing, but I

00:48:45.720 feel as if you

00:48:46.560 had stopped

00:48:47.640 everything between

00:48:48.620 10 p.m.

00:48:49.620 and 3 a.m., you

00:48:51.800 probably would have

00:48:52.520 picked up most of

00:48:53.380 the problems that

00:48:54.060 would have happened

00:48:54.580 between 3 a.m.

00:48:55.660 and 5 a.m.

00:48:57.120 Because very few

00:48:58.660 people say, you

00:48:59.380 know, it's 3 a.m.,

00:49:01.520 you want to go out

00:49:02.500 and have a drink?

00:49:03.880 I don't know.

00:49:05.300 I feel as if they

00:49:06.180 could have maybe

00:49:06.840 pulled that back to

00:49:07.720 3 a.m.

00:49:08.320 I'm just saying.

00:49:10.320 But Harmeet Dillon

00:49:11.640 on Twitter has a

00:49:14.240 solution because

00:49:15.420 apparently there's

00:49:16.100 a rule that says

00:49:18.840 that homeless people

00:49:19.660 are exempt.

00:49:20.980 So you don't have

00:49:22.200 a curfew if you're

00:49:23.200 homeless.

00:49:24.560 And Harmeet asks,

00:49:26.280 what if you

00:49:26.840 self-identify as

00:49:28.020 homeless?

00:49:29.340 Uh-huh.

00:49:30.380 What if you do?

00:49:32.120 To which I add,

00:49:33.860 it looks like this

00:49:34.620 problem is going to

00:49:35.320 solve itself because

00:49:36.300 if the Biden economy

00:49:37.700 is anything like

00:49:38.440 what we think,

00:49:39.260 well, we'll all

00:49:40.520 be homeless.

00:49:41.580 So this curfew

00:49:43.220 might not matter.

00:49:44.940 Don Jr.

00:49:45.520 is reportedly

00:49:46.400 recovering from

00:49:48.180 COVID.

00:49:50.760 If you want to

00:49:51.620 see the worst

00:49:52.300 of humanity,

00:49:53.920 look at the

00:49:54.520 people celebrating

00:49:55.680 Don Jr.

00:49:57.540 on social media.

00:49:59.040 Look at the

00:49:59.400 people celebrating.

00:50:00.780 And there's like

00:50:01.340 some bitch

00:50:02.880 did a

00:50:03.540 happy dance

00:50:05.600 on TikTok

00:50:06.420 to Don Jr.

00:50:08.640 having a disease.

00:50:10.980 Who does a

00:50:11.820 happy dance

00:50:12.520 to somebody

00:50:13.220 else's disease?

00:50:14.860 I can't think

00:50:15.620 of anybody I

00:50:16.240 dislike that much.

00:50:17.820 I mean, really.

00:50:19.340 I mean, I could

00:50:19.880 hate somebody

00:50:20.420 pretty much.

00:50:21.860 And short of

00:50:22.400 being, you know,

00:50:23.340 like a, I don't

00:50:25.040 know, actually

00:50:25.880 Hitler, I don't

00:50:26.960 think I'd ever

00:50:27.560 celebrate them

00:50:28.480 getting a disease.

00:50:29.880 That's pretty sick.

00:50:30.800 I'm pretty sure

00:50:33.420 Don Jr.

00:50:34.000 will be fine.

00:50:35.020 He looks pretty

00:50:35.520 healthy.

00:50:36.260 So he should get

00:50:37.040 by that just fine.

00:50:38.660 I want to ask,

00:50:39.360 here's a question.

00:50:40.880 Have any of you

00:50:41.800 felt jealousy

00:50:44.480 for somebody else

00:50:46.920 who was healthy

00:50:47.840 and got the

00:50:48.820 coronavirus?

00:50:50.520 Because I feel

00:50:51.440 that a little bit.

00:50:52.960 And it's not

00:50:53.780 rational because

00:50:54.580 you don't want to

00:50:55.220 get the coronavirus

00:50:55.860 because it could

00:50:56.620 have, you know,

00:50:57.600 lasting problems

00:50:58.640 that they say

00:50:59.260 for months.

00:50:59.900 You don't know

00:51:00.740 what the long-term

00:51:01.560 consequence is.

00:51:03.000 You don't know

00:51:03.720 if you're the, you

00:51:04.600 know, the rare

00:51:05.100 person who dies

00:51:05.900 from it.

00:51:06.800 So logically,

00:51:08.500 I definitely do

00:51:10.000 not want to get

00:51:10.640 the coronavirus.

00:51:12.080 Logically.

00:51:13.340 But I'm not really

00:51:14.540 a logical creature.

00:51:16.660 I'm part illogical.

00:51:18.740 And the illogical

00:51:20.040 part of me,

00:51:20.660 the irrational

00:51:21.600 part of me,

00:51:22.520 is a little bit

00:51:23.640 jealous.

00:51:25.020 Anytime I see

00:51:25.960 a healthy person

00:51:26.940 get coronavirus

00:51:28.640 because I assume

00:51:29.560 that they will

00:51:30.080 recover with

00:51:30.760 no problem

00:51:31.380 and then they

00:51:32.420 have a little

00:51:33.080 bit extra

00:51:34.060 freedom.

00:51:36.740 Right?

00:51:37.520 They're a little

00:51:38.180 less afraid of

00:51:39.000 things.

00:51:40.060 They don't really

00:51:41.060 need to wear a

00:51:41.740 mask.

00:51:42.640 You know,

00:51:42.840 they might for

00:51:43.420 social reasons

00:51:44.120 but don't really

00:51:44.940 need to.

00:51:46.320 And I just

00:51:47.800 wondered,

00:51:48.180 has anybody else

00:51:48.700 had that feeling?

00:51:49.980 I'm looking at

00:51:50.740 the comments

00:51:51.200 and it looks like

00:51:51.900 literally nobody

00:51:52.880 else had that

00:51:53.540 feeling.

00:51:54.740 Okay, it's just

00:51:55.680 me.

00:51:57.280 Good thing I

00:51:58.060 checked.

00:51:58.380 It's just

00:51:59.640 me.

00:52:00.560 All right.

00:52:01.520 So we wish

00:52:02.400 the best for

00:52:03.380 Don Jr.

00:52:04.620 Speedy

00:52:04.980 recovery.

00:52:09.220 Breitbart

00:52:09.780 had an article

00:52:10.440 about President

00:52:11.540 Trump's

00:52:11.940 announcement

00:52:12.400 about his

00:52:13.060 drug

00:52:13.820 changes,

00:52:15.420 drug policy

00:52:15.940 changes.

00:52:17.380 So we've

00:52:18.520 got this

00:52:18.880 most favored

00:52:19.680 nations thing

00:52:20.760 and rebates

00:52:23.900 and discounts

00:52:24.700 would be

00:52:25.180 pushed directly

00:52:25.860 to consumers

00:52:26.600 instead of

00:52:27.380 to the

00:52:27.660 middle people.

00:52:30.360 And then

00:52:30.660 there's this

00:52:31.280 one line

00:52:31.960 in the story

00:52:32.700 that just

00:52:34.140 sort of

00:52:34.540 invalidates

00:52:35.320 the whole

00:52:35.680 story.

00:52:37.280 This was

00:52:37.720 in Breitbart.

00:52:38.440 I assume

00:52:38.780 this is

00:52:39.140 general

00:52:39.580 knowledge.

00:52:40.700 Just this

00:52:41.400 little throwaway

00:52:42.620 sentence that

00:52:43.440 says,

00:52:44.440 although the

00:52:45.160 Congressional

00:52:45.720 Budget Office

00:52:46.360 estimates it

00:52:47.180 could ultimately

00:52:47.740 cost taxpayers

00:52:48.720 more.

00:52:50.460 What?

00:52:51.100 Now, I

00:52:53.360 don't think

00:52:53.820 that's

00:52:54.160 untrue,

00:52:54.720 by the

00:52:54.980 way.

00:52:55.940 I do

00:52:56.360 think that

00:52:57.160 you can't

00:52:57.580 just tell

00:52:58.040 the

00:52:58.280 pharmaceutical

00:52:58.740 company

00:52:59.400 we're going

00:53:00.200 to pay

00:53:00.440 you less

00:53:00.880 from now

00:53:01.340 on and

00:53:02.400 that

00:53:02.560 everything's

00:53:03.100 fine.

00:53:04.340 Because it

00:53:05.240 would be

00:53:05.500 sort of like

00:53:05.960 negotiating

00:53:06.520 with your

00:53:07.100 car dealership.

00:53:09.300 If you get

00:53:09.940 the car

00:53:10.620 dealership to

00:53:11.400 go down

00:53:11.940 $500 on

00:53:14.320 the price

00:53:14.660 of the car,

00:53:15.760 they're going

00:53:16.080 to try to

00:53:17.020 get it back

00:53:17.580 with the

00:53:18.100 car mats

00:53:19.300 and the

00:53:20.180 secret spray

00:53:21.120 that protects

00:53:21.920 the undercoating

00:53:22.600 of your car.

00:53:23.720 So you

00:53:24.180 think you

00:53:24.780 won.

00:53:25.360 It's like,

00:53:25.680 I got them

00:53:26.300 down $500

00:53:27.240 on the

00:53:28.760 price of

00:53:29.120 the car.

00:53:30.040 Woo-woo,

00:53:30.580 look at me.

00:53:31.800 I got that

00:53:32.400 $500.

00:53:33.500 And then you

00:53:34.160 just fucking

00:53:34.820 give it back

00:53:35.640 with the

00:53:36.720 secret undercoating

00:53:38.120 and the,

00:53:39.420 I don't know,

00:53:40.260 every fucking

00:53:42.320 thing the car

00:53:42.880 dealership does

00:53:43.660 to screw you.

00:53:45.160 So I've got

00:53:46.020 a feeling that

00:53:46.540 the pharmaceutical

00:53:47.200 companies have

00:53:48.280 lots of

00:53:48.840 game,

00:53:49.500 lots of,

00:53:50.420 I mean,

00:53:50.720 they have

00:53:50.920 lots of

00:53:51.340 resources.

00:53:52.500 They're very

00:53:52.980 smart.

00:53:53.880 They're going

00:53:54.360 to figure out

00:53:55.000 a way to

00:53:55.480 re-screw us,

00:53:57.280 even though

00:53:57.780 these rules

00:53:58.640 look like

00:53:59.220 they would

00:53:59.600 be in the

00:54:00.380 short run

00:54:00.880 for our

00:54:01.320 benefit.

00:54:02.120 So I

00:54:02.780 would like

00:54:03.220 to be way

00:54:03.960 more optimistic

00:54:04.900 about drug

00:54:06.120 prices coming

00:54:07.240 down and

00:54:08.340 that it not

00:54:08.980 hurting us

00:54:09.580 in other

00:54:10.040 ways,

00:54:11.100 but I don't

00:54:11.920 feel as if

00:54:12.660 it's that

00:54:13.060 simple.

00:54:14.260 And I

00:54:14.580 don't know

00:54:14.960 what the

00:54:15.440 Congressional

00:54:16.660 Budget Office

00:54:17.620 is thinking

00:54:19.480 about it

00:54:19.980 when they

00:54:20.340 say it

00:54:20.620 could

00:54:20.760 ultimately

00:54:21.140 cost

00:54:21.520 taxpayers

00:54:22.060 more,

00:54:22.940 but I

00:54:23.380 don't doubt

00:54:23.840 it.

00:54:24.920 I don't

00:54:25.280 doubt it.

00:54:26.440 All that

00:54:27.180 said,

00:54:28.600 is it a

00:54:29.120 good idea

00:54:29.680 to do

00:54:30.100 it?

00:54:31.760 Yes.

00:54:33.280 Trump

00:54:33.800 should get

00:54:34.480 maximum

00:54:35.080 credit for

00:54:35.840 this,

00:54:36.460 because the

00:54:37.260 old situation

00:54:38.160 wasn't working,

00:54:39.620 and sometimes

00:54:40.200 you just need

00:54:40.740 to break

00:54:41.200 the old

00:54:41.580 thing.

00:54:42.620 And sometimes

00:54:43.240 the first

00:54:43.820 thing you do

00:54:44.300 to fix

00:54:44.760 the thing

00:54:45.140 you broke

00:54:45.660 may not

00:54:46.740 be the

00:54:47.140 ultimate

00:54:47.380 thing.

00:54:48.640 But it

00:54:49.280 had to be

00:54:49.820 broken.

00:54:51.360 We had to

00:54:52.240 try to put

00:54:52.700 it back

00:54:53.000 together.

00:54:53.560 This looks

00:54:54.140 like a good

00:54:54.660 first try.

00:54:56.100 If this

00:54:56.860 doesn't work,

00:54:58.200 at least

00:54:58.760 we'll learn

00:54:59.300 something,

00:55:00.040 maybe we'll

00:55:00.600 be smarter,

00:55:01.500 maybe we'll

00:55:01.960 find a way

00:55:02.440 to correct

00:55:02.960 it.

00:55:03.740 You've

00:55:04.160 just got

00:55:04.540 to do

00:55:04.900 something

00:55:05.300 sometimes.

00:55:06.540 And this

00:55:06.800 seems like

00:55:07.300 a very

00:55:07.940 productive

00:55:09.400 way to

00:55:10.000 at least

00:55:10.340 shake the

00:55:13.020 box and

00:55:13.500 see if you

00:55:13.840 can get

00:55:14.080 something

00:55:14.360 going.

00:55:15.440 All right.

00:55:16.420 I have an

00:55:17.120 idea to

00:55:17.780 end all the

00:55:18.300 window breaking

00:55:19.000 in Portland

00:55:19.520 because

00:55:20.620 apparently

00:55:22.300 every night

00:55:23.020 there's a

00:55:23.740 group of

00:55:24.240 protesters

00:55:24.860 who just

00:55:27.100 walk down

00:55:27.680 different rows

00:55:28.520 of retail

00:55:29.080 businesses

00:55:29.580 and break

00:55:30.140 their windows.

00:55:31.280 So now

00:55:31.600 it's just

00:55:31.920 like a

00:55:32.300 nightly thing

00:55:32.900 to break

00:55:33.300 all the

00:55:33.580 windows.

00:55:34.880 And my

00:55:35.240 idea to

00:55:36.460 end it,

00:55:37.280 since apparently

00:55:38.020 law enforcement

00:55:38.760 is not an

00:55:39.340 option,

00:55:40.200 is to

00:55:41.000 hire the

00:55:41.760 protesters

00:55:42.280 to break

00:55:42.900 windows.

00:55:43.840 Are you

00:55:45.600 with me

00:55:45.940 yet?

00:55:46.820 Instead of

00:55:47.380 just letting

00:55:47.900 them break

00:55:48.400 windows,

00:55:49.380 we should

00:55:50.020 hire them

00:55:50.700 and pay

00:55:51.820 them a

00:55:52.180 good salary

00:55:52.780 to break

00:55:53.280 windows.

00:55:54.960 You know

00:55:55.600 why this

00:55:55.980 will work,

00:55:56.460 right?

00:55:58.120 Because the

00:55:58.760 moment it

00:55:59.180 turns into

00:55:59.600 a job,

00:56:00.200 they're not

00:56:00.460 going to

00:56:00.680 show up.

00:56:03.720 I'll just

00:56:04.340 leave that

00:56:04.760 laying there

00:56:05.760 for you.

00:56:06.100 I saw

00:56:08.520 a conversation

00:56:09.260 online today

00:56:10.960 asking if

00:56:14.280 liberals have

00:56:15.040 ruined

00:56:15.320 everything.

00:56:16.300 Name

00:56:16.580 anything that

00:56:17.480 liberals have

00:56:18.600 not ruined.

00:56:20.120 And the

00:56:21.440 suggestion was

00:56:22.160 made that at

00:56:22.820 least they

00:56:23.060 haven't ruined

00:56:23.740 movies.

00:56:25.240 You know,

00:56:25.540 most liberals

00:56:26.520 are making

00:56:27.100 movies.

00:56:28.200 To which I

00:56:29.080 said,

00:56:29.660 have you

00:56:30.100 seen movies?

00:56:32.100 When was the

00:56:33.020 last time you

00:56:33.540 saw a good

00:56:34.040 movie?

00:56:35.380 Liberals have

00:56:36.160 completely ruined

00:56:37.220 movies.

00:56:38.260 Recently, I

00:56:39.440 would say in

00:56:39.800 the last few

00:56:40.420 years.

00:56:41.500 Movies used

00:56:42.240 to be a

00:56:43.460 lot of fun.

00:56:44.900 I used to

00:56:45.560 like movies.

00:56:46.940 I can't even

00:56:47.800 remember the

00:56:48.420 last time I

00:56:48.960 watched a

00:56:49.360 movie that

00:56:49.780 was good.

00:56:51.440 They've

00:56:52.020 completely ruined

00:56:53.180 movies.

00:56:55.180 All right.

00:57:01.360 Here's

00:57:01.920 here's

00:57:04.360 something that

00:57:05.080 happened that

00:57:05.880 can be

00:57:06.360 interpreted two

00:57:07.420 different ways.

00:57:09.100 There's a

00:57:09.480 very positive

00:57:10.280 interpretation and

00:57:11.460 then there's one

00:57:12.300 that's not so

00:57:13.020 positive.

00:57:14.460 And the news is

00:57:15.360 that the

00:57:16.820 circuit courts

00:57:17.660 have been

00:57:18.080 reassigned.

00:57:19.280 Now, I don't

00:57:19.680 know all the

00:57:20.420 ins and outs

00:57:20.980 of the court

00:57:21.540 system, so I

00:57:22.740 might not have

00:57:23.360 a full

00:57:23.800 understanding of

00:57:24.720 this topic, but

00:57:26.200 I'll try to

00:57:26.620 bluff my way

00:57:27.320 through it.

00:57:29.220 And we're all

00:57:30.080 learning a lot

00:57:30.680 about our

00:57:31.620 government in

00:57:32.360 this process.

00:57:33.600 So effective

00:57:34.120 immediately, there

00:57:38.060 are four

00:57:38.860 Supreme Court

00:57:39.720 justices assigned

00:57:42.080 to each of

00:57:42.960 four states,

00:57:43.840 Pennsylvania,

00:57:44.440 Wisconsin,

00:57:45.620 Michigan, and

00:57:46.180 Georgia, to be

00:57:47.400 in charge of

00:57:48.280 the election

00:57:49.860 fraud claims

00:57:51.360 for those

00:57:52.160 states.

00:57:52.840 This is my

00:57:53.440 understanding of

00:57:54.240 what's happening.

00:57:54.720 Now, the

00:57:55.840 four justices

00:57:57.360 chosen is the

00:57:59.060 story, all

00:57:59.820 right?

00:58:00.340 So here are

00:58:01.400 the Supreme

00:58:02.740 Court justices

00:58:03.720 who might be

00:58:05.000 the deciding

00:58:05.720 people, or

00:58:06.920 at least, you

00:58:07.980 know, the

00:58:08.260 most influential

00:58:08.920 people, on

00:58:10.140 whether these

00:58:10.780 four states go

00:58:12.020 to Trump or

00:58:13.920 stay with

00:58:14.480 Biden.

00:58:15.000 You ready?

00:58:16.160 Here are the

00:58:16.820 names of the

00:58:17.320 four justices.

00:58:18.920 Brett

00:58:19.340 Kavanaugh,

00:58:21.720 Amy Coney

00:58:22.480 Barrett,

00:58:22.980 Samuel Alito,

00:58:28.140 and Clarence

00:58:28.720 Thomas.

00:58:30.660 Do you notice

00:58:31.640 anything that

00:58:32.280 they have in

00:58:32.820 common?

00:58:35.440 Yeah.

00:58:37.100 They're all

00:58:38.100 super

00:58:39.240 conservative.

00:58:41.540 So what's

00:58:42.380 that tell you?

00:58:43.720 Well, one

00:58:44.360 interpretation is,

00:58:45.580 oh, the fix

00:58:46.620 is in.

00:58:48.040 Trump's going

00:58:48.680 to get his

00:58:49.040 way.

00:58:49.940 He packed

00:58:50.600 the court with

00:58:51.220 conservatives.

00:58:51.740 conservatives.

00:58:52.560 He got all

00:58:53.380 conservatives to

00:58:54.420 be in charge of

00:58:55.180 the most crucial

00:58:55.920 question of

00:58:57.180 whether or not

00:58:57.780 he's going to,

00:58:59.600 well, I would

00:59:00.400 say the crucial

00:59:01.260 question is whether

00:59:02.100 the election

00:59:02.700 stands or whether

00:59:04.460 it gets kicked

00:59:05.200 to the House

00:59:08.140 of Representatives.

00:59:09.980 So I feel as

00:59:11.400 if, and again,

00:59:12.420 I need some fact

00:59:13.180 checking on this

00:59:13.920 because I'm not

00:59:15.580 really, I can't

00:59:16.860 go too deep on

00:59:17.800 the legal system,

00:59:19.000 so I could be

00:59:19.780 wrong very easily.

00:59:20.640 just keep that

00:59:22.100 in mind.

00:59:24.480 But, you

00:59:26.080 know, your

00:59:26.440 first glance

00:59:28.380 at this is,

00:59:29.120 oh my God,

00:59:30.780 Trump's going

00:59:31.320 to win.

00:59:32.780 Because the

00:59:33.860 Supreme Court

00:59:34.600 just put four

00:59:35.560 conservative

00:59:36.220 justices on

00:59:37.600 the most

00:59:38.040 important questions

00:59:39.140 that if they

00:59:40.420 vote the right

00:59:41.060 way, Trump's

00:59:43.600 president for a

00:59:45.040 second term.

00:59:45.540 what do you

00:59:47.700 think of that?

00:59:49.820 Unfortunately, I

00:59:50.680 had the opposite

00:59:51.600 interpretation.

00:59:54.320 So don't get

00:59:55.820 too happy.

00:59:57.500 I probably

00:59:58.080 shouldn't have

00:59:58.540 given you that

00:59:59.120 one first.

01:00:00.500 Okay, now I

01:00:01.200 feel bad.

01:00:02.620 Okay, I feel

01:00:03.180 bad.

01:00:04.260 Cats on the

01:00:04.940 roof.

01:00:06.040 Cats on the

01:00:06.760 roof, guys.

01:00:08.280 Because I need

01:00:09.740 you to slowly

01:00:11.260 adjust to what

01:00:12.840 you're going to

01:00:13.280 hear next.

01:00:13.920 because otherwise

01:00:14.960 it would be a

01:00:15.500 little too

01:00:15.800 shocking.

01:00:16.680 Because if you

01:00:17.180 got a little

01:00:17.580 too happy, and

01:00:19.040 you're doing

01:00:19.360 like a little

01:00:19.780 happy dance at

01:00:20.680 home, where

01:00:21.460 you're watching

01:00:21.880 this, yes, it's

01:00:24.460 over.

01:00:25.780 I don't think

01:00:26.940 that's necessarily

01:00:27.980 what we're

01:00:28.540 watching.

01:00:29.720 Let me give

01:00:30.340 you the other

01:00:31.140 interpretation.

01:00:32.700 This is my

01:00:33.440 interpretation, too.

01:00:34.780 So it's not

01:00:35.260 just the other

01:00:35.800 one, it's the

01:00:36.380 one I have.

01:00:37.520 It goes like

01:00:38.180 this.

01:00:39.800 The Supreme

01:00:40.440 Court is not

01:00:41.760 just interested

01:00:42.840 in deciding

01:00:44.300 cases.

01:00:45.760 Cases matter,

01:00:47.660 right?

01:00:48.060 That's the main

01:00:48.880 bread and butter

01:00:49.500 of what they're

01:00:49.900 doing.

01:00:50.540 But it's not the

01:00:51.400 only thing they

01:00:51.920 care about.

01:00:53.100 They have a

01:00:53.800 greater interest

01:00:54.840 than the

01:00:55.960 individual cases.

01:00:57.620 And the

01:00:58.040 greater interest

01:00:58.840 is the

01:00:59.600 republic.

01:01:00.760 Keeping

01:01:01.340 America a

01:01:03.020 functioning

01:01:03.460 country.

01:01:05.620 Much more

01:01:06.520 important than

01:01:07.860 how an

01:01:08.500 individual case

01:01:09.500 goes.

01:01:10.760 Everybody

01:01:11.160 agree?

01:01:11.500 If you

01:01:13.340 were the

01:01:13.620 Supreme

01:01:13.880 Court and

01:01:14.400 you saw

01:01:14.740 that whichever

01:01:15.260 way this

01:01:15.860 goes, whoever

01:01:17.000 ends up in

01:01:17.880 the presidency,

01:01:18.920 that it would

01:01:19.720 tear the

01:01:20.220 country apart.

01:01:22.460 Do you

01:01:23.020 think the

01:01:23.420 Supreme Court

01:01:25.260 sees what

01:01:26.480 most of you

01:01:27.100 see, which

01:01:28.160 is, oh, this

01:01:29.280 is kind of a

01:01:30.020 dangerous situation.

01:01:31.620 Kind of got a

01:01:32.380 bunch of gas,

01:01:33.860 and we've got a

01:01:34.300 bunch of matches,

01:01:35.660 and it looks like

01:01:36.380 they're getting a

01:01:36.840 little too close

01:01:37.480 to each other.

01:01:38.960 Don't you

01:01:39.580 believe that the

01:01:40.380 Supreme Court

01:01:41.180 feels the

01:01:42.820 weight of

01:01:43.620 this decision

01:01:44.460 like maybe

01:01:46.380 nothing else

01:01:47.440 they've ever

01:01:47.860 felt?

01:01:48.960 That the

01:01:49.800 entire system

01:01:50.760 is at risk,

01:01:52.540 not just this

01:01:53.460 case, or

01:01:55.100 cases, or

01:01:55.980 lawsuits, right?

01:01:58.360 Now, if you

01:01:59.340 were the

01:01:59.620 Supreme Court,

01:02:00.440 and that was

01:02:00.980 your greatest

01:02:01.540 interest, to

01:02:02.300 keep the

01:02:02.860 system intact,

01:02:04.520 keep the

01:02:05.320 credibility of

01:02:06.160 the system

01:02:06.740 intact, and

01:02:09.340 you're asked

01:02:10.020 to judge

01:02:10.900 something that

01:02:11.940 whichever way

01:02:12.680 it goes, it's

01:02:14.100 going to be

01:02:14.480 ugly, right?

01:02:18.160 What do you

01:02:18.840 do?

01:02:20.100 Well, I'll

01:02:20.540 tell you what

01:02:20.940 I'd do.

01:02:22.280 I would assign

01:02:23.100 the four most

01:02:24.280 conservative

01:02:25.120 justices if,

01:02:29.020 and here's the

01:02:29.840 big part, if I

01:02:33.100 believed Trump

01:02:34.080 would ultimately

01:02:35.060 lose.

01:02:35.980 that's why I

01:02:38.520 would put four

01:02:41.980 conservative

01:02:42.940 judges on

01:02:43.940 it, to

01:02:46.180 make sure

01:02:46.760 that if

01:02:48.220 Trump loses,

01:02:50.260 the conservative

01:02:51.380 part of the

01:02:51.980 country says,

01:02:53.880 fuck, but I

01:02:55.800 trust it.

01:02:57.480 See where I'm

01:02:58.040 going?

01:02:59.200 The Supreme

01:03:00.340 Court needs the

01:03:01.380 conservatives to

01:03:02.360 back down.

01:03:03.040 Now, the

01:03:04.300 only way it's

01:03:05.600 going to

01:03:05.820 happen is if

01:03:07.340 four super

01:03:09.340 conservative

01:03:10.100 Supreme Court

01:03:11.220 justices say,

01:03:13.540 look at this

01:03:14.540 people, it's

01:03:15.660 time.

01:03:16.860 It's time.

01:03:18.320 It's time to

01:03:19.340 back down.

01:03:20.700 It's time to

01:03:21.300 put Biden in

01:03:21.940 office and deal

01:03:23.260 with it in

01:03:23.720 2024.

01:03:24.280 I think the

01:03:27.340 Supreme Court

01:03:27.940 has just sent

01:03:28.720 the country a

01:03:29.920 big fucking

01:03:30.600 signal that

01:03:32.160 Trump's not

01:03:32.700 going to get

01:03:33.020 a second

01:03:33.360 term.

01:03:34.800 And it

01:03:35.360 has nothing

01:03:35.920 to do with

01:03:37.420 the claims,

01:03:38.680 has nothing

01:03:39.480 to do with

01:03:40.040 the lawsuits,

01:03:41.400 has nothing

01:03:42.220 to do with

01:03:42.820 whether the

01:03:43.260 election was

01:03:44.040 or was not

01:03:44.780 fraudulent.

01:03:46.000 It has

01:03:46.620 everything to

01:03:47.440 do with

01:03:48.540 keeping the

01:03:49.060 country together.

01:03:50.960 If they were

01:03:51.780 thinking that

01:03:52.340 way, and of

01:03:52.840 course we have

01:03:53.300 to speculate,

01:03:54.000 right?

01:03:54.160 We can't read

01:03:54.720 anybody's minds.

01:03:56.100 But if that's

01:03:56.940 what they're

01:03:57.320 thinking,

01:03:57.720 if that's

01:04:08.720 what they're

01:04:09.020 thinking,

01:04:09.600 it's brilliant.

01:04:11.560 It's fucking

01:04:12.220 brilliant.

01:04:13.660 If that's what

01:04:14.640 they're thinking.

01:04:15.560 We don't know

01:04:16.300 that, but I

01:04:17.820 think they

01:04:18.120 are.

01:04:20.620 So, what is

01:04:22.440 likely to

01:04:23.020 happen?

01:04:23.300 In my

01:04:24.380 opinion, the

01:04:25.680 likely outcome

01:04:27.600 is that the

01:04:28.420 Supreme Court

01:04:29.200 will give us

01:04:31.500 a decision

01:04:32.380 because of the

01:04:33.500 way they've

01:04:33.880 set it up

01:04:34.380 with four

01:04:36.040 conservatives.

01:04:37.420 I think they're

01:04:38.100 going to give

01:04:38.480 us a decision

01:04:39.180 that says,

01:04:40.400 yeah, it

01:04:41.080 looks like

01:04:41.440 some stuff

01:04:41.960 happened.

01:04:43.120 It looks like

01:04:43.800 some fraud

01:04:44.280 happened, but

01:04:45.540 it wasn't

01:04:46.080 enough.

01:04:47.540 And we

01:04:48.220 choose to

01:04:49.100 keep the

01:04:49.480 system together

01:04:50.280 and let you

01:04:51.360 work it out

01:04:51.920 in 2024.

01:04:53.300 Would that

01:04:54.300 be the

01:04:54.720 wrong decision

01:04:55.660 for the

01:04:56.360 benefit of

01:04:57.200 the country?

01:05:00.140 Would it?

01:05:01.660 I don't

01:05:02.380 think it

01:05:02.700 would.

01:05:03.840 I prefer

01:05:04.680 Trump to

01:05:05.440 get a

01:05:05.720 second term

01:05:06.440 if the

01:05:06.940 country can

01:05:07.540 stay together

01:05:08.260 under those

01:05:08.980 conditions.

01:05:10.140 I prefer

01:05:10.620 it.

01:05:11.480 But, if

01:05:12.600 the Republicans

01:05:13.180 hold the

01:05:13.760 Senate, and

01:05:15.620 would pretty

01:05:16.120 much have a

01:05:16.640 lock on the

01:05:17.480 House as

01:05:18.000 well in

01:05:18.520 2022, and

01:05:20.440 they can

01:05:20.800 keep Biden

01:05:22.080 from raising

01:05:23.060 my taxes

01:05:23.780 to sky-high

01:05:25.900 levels and

01:05:26.660 keep us

01:05:28.200 from becoming

01:05:28.920 a vassal

01:05:29.620 of China,

01:05:30.780 I think we

01:05:32.000 could wait

01:05:32.380 it out.

01:05:33.720 And I

01:05:34.040 wouldn't mind

01:05:34.600 seeing an

01:05:36.400 ex-President

01:05:37.200 Trump getting

01:05:38.920 a promotion

01:05:39.600 to being a

01:05:40.720 media mogul.

01:05:43.420 Because he

01:05:44.140 might even

01:05:44.720 have more

01:05:45.160 power as a

01:05:45.880 media mogul

01:05:46.600 than he would

01:05:47.780 have even as

01:05:48.660 president.

01:05:49.800 It's possible,

01:05:50.960 given the

01:05:51.480 power of

01:05:51.880 the media.

01:05:53.060 So, I

01:05:54.060 feel as

01:05:54.620 though we

01:05:55.280 can see

01:05:55.680 the end

01:05:56.140 game now.

01:05:57.840 That's what

01:05:58.460 it feels

01:05:58.800 like.

01:05:59.460 Now, the

01:05:59.840 assumption is,

01:06:01.200 there's a

01:06:01.640 really big

01:06:02.320 assumption

01:06:02.700 here.

01:06:03.640 The gigantic

01:06:04.500 assumption

01:06:05.060 is that

01:06:07.080 the Supreme

01:06:07.700 Court believes

01:06:08.700 that the

01:06:09.740 case will

01:06:10.300 not be

01:06:10.800 made

01:06:11.260 sufficiently

01:06:12.140 to

01:06:12.600 change the

01:06:14.300 election

01:06:14.600 outcome.

01:06:15.040 what if

01:06:16.620 it does?

01:06:18.800 What if

01:06:19.580 the Trump

01:06:19.980 team

01:06:20.360 delivers the

01:06:22.280 goods?

01:06:23.940 What if

01:06:24.300 they do?

01:06:25.680 Because here's

01:06:26.940 what the

01:06:27.740 smartest people

01:06:28.580 are telling

01:06:29.560 me.

01:06:30.500 It doesn't

01:06:30.940 mean it's

01:06:31.260 true.

01:06:32.380 The people

01:06:33.020 who are the

01:06:33.480 smartest and

01:06:34.220 know the

01:06:34.580 most and

01:06:35.100 are closest

01:06:35.600 to it

01:06:36.120 would tell

01:06:37.360 you something

01:06:37.860 like this.

01:06:39.800 Maybe the

01:06:40.620 software was

01:06:41.320 manipulated,

01:06:42.120 maybe it

01:06:42.520 wasn't,

01:06:43.840 don't hang

01:06:45.240 your hat on

01:06:45.780 that one.

01:06:47.360 But we

01:06:49.040 can demonstrate

01:06:49.960 that the

01:06:51.060 checking of

01:06:52.380 the signatures

01:06:52.980 was relaxed.

01:06:55.380 The relaxation

01:06:56.320 of double

01:06:57.540 checking the

01:06:58.140 signatures

01:06:58.620 almost surely

01:07:01.220 changed the

01:07:02.080 election

01:07:02.620 outcome.

01:07:04.140 That might

01:07:04.980 be provable,

01:07:06.320 and it might

01:07:06.800 be provable

01:07:07.440 in a way

01:07:07.940 that any

01:07:08.560 reasonable

01:07:09.420 person would

01:07:10.020 say,

01:07:10.300 yeah, that

01:07:10.920 changed the

01:07:11.420 outcome.

01:07:12.520 It won't

01:07:13.520 necessarily

01:07:14.140 change who

01:07:14.780 was in

01:07:15.060 office.

01:07:16.040 It will

01:07:16.560 just change

01:07:17.040 your mind

01:07:17.420 about who

01:07:17.860 won.

01:07:18.580 And that's

01:07:18.920 how you

01:07:19.120 get two

01:07:19.480 presidents.

01:07:21.060 So I'm

01:07:22.180 going to

01:07:22.360 guess right

01:07:22.800 now that

01:07:23.320 the Supreme

01:07:23.860 Court would

01:07:24.320 be in

01:07:24.660 quite a

01:07:25.080 bind if

01:07:26.080 they put

01:07:26.460 four

01:07:26.820 conservative

01:07:27.500 Supreme

01:07:28.620 Court

01:07:28.940 justices on

01:07:29.760 the case,

01:07:30.520 and then

01:07:31.360 the Trump

01:07:32.040 team makes

01:07:33.100 the case.

01:07:34.380 And if

01:07:34.700 they make

01:07:35.080 it, I

01:07:35.380 think it's

01:07:35.780 going to

01:07:35.960 be on the

01:07:36.480 signature

01:07:36.900 verification

01:07:37.540 part.

01:07:38.460 That feels

01:07:39.160 pretty clean,

01:07:40.580 clean in

01:07:41.460 terms of a

01:07:41.960 case.

01:07:42.520 that could

01:07:44.940 be really

01:07:45.440 dangerous,

01:07:46.400 because then

01:07:47.100 it would

01:07:47.320 look like

01:07:47.680 the fix

01:07:48.160 is in,

01:07:48.640 right?

01:07:49.240 Oh, the

01:07:49.840 Supreme

01:07:50.060 Court

01:07:50.240 justices,

01:07:50.960 they're all

01:07:51.220 conservative,

01:07:51.920 they agreed

01:07:52.500 with Trump,

01:07:53.060 well, the

01:07:53.640 fix is in.

01:07:54.820 Could be a

01:07:55.260 problem, but

01:07:56.180 I don't think

01:07:56.640 it would

01:07:56.880 necessarily be

01:07:57.780 a fatal

01:07:58.560 one.

01:07:59.520 All right,

01:07:59.800 that's all

01:08:00.240 for now,

01:08:01.140 and I

01:08:02.420 will talk

01:08:02.760 to you

01:08:03.140 tomorrow.

01:08:09.200 All right,

01:08:10.340 Periscope

01:08:10.780 is off.

01:08:11.500 I just

01:08:11.780 want to

01:08:11.980 look at a

01:08:12.300 few comments

01:08:13.400 from YouTube

01:08:15.000 over here.

01:08:16.620 Somebody

01:08:16.940 says,

01:08:17.440 follow the

01:08:18.000 law.

01:08:18.920 You know,

01:08:19.400 I don't

01:08:19.760 think that

01:08:20.160 the Supreme

01:08:20.620 Court does

01:08:21.080 that,

01:08:21.920 even

01:08:22.320 conservative

01:08:23.300 judges.

01:08:24.320 Would

01:08:24.540 you?

01:08:24.740 somebody

01:08:26.800 says,

01:08:27.220 you

01:08:27.320 caved

01:08:27.640 in,

01:08:28.040 Scott.

01:08:29.540 What does

01:08:30.260 that mean?

01:08:31.800 What does

01:08:32.260 caving in

01:08:32.820 mean?

01:08:34.320 Does

01:08:34.660 caving in

01:08:35.320 mean,

01:08:36.120 because what

01:08:36.540 I did

01:08:36.820 was predict.

01:08:39.060 Is

01:08:39.340 predicting

01:08:39.960 caving in?

01:08:44.360 How is

01:08:45.120 Boo doing?

01:08:45.860 Boo's doing

01:08:46.400 great.

01:08:48.120 Best cat

01:08:48.920 ever.

01:08:49.160 won't

01:08:57.220 be a

01:08:57.720 2024

01:08:58.420 slaughter

01:08:59.300 meter

01:08:59.540 update.

01:09:00.620 Well,

01:09:01.000 the

01:09:01.120 slaughter

01:09:01.420 meter

01:09:01.700 sort of

01:09:02.160 has

01:09:02.340 lost

01:09:02.740 its

01:09:03.140 meaning

01:09:03.700 because

01:09:04.620 we

01:09:05.160 have

01:09:05.540 two

01:09:06.180 potential

01:09:06.660 outcomes

01:09:07.180 instead

01:09:07.560 of just

01:09:08.020 who

01:09:08.340 wins

01:09:08.580 the

01:09:08.720 election

01:09:09.040 because

01:09:09.780 I

01:09:09.920 think

01:09:10.080 this

01:09:10.300 two

01:09:10.600 presidents

01:09:11.060 situation

01:09:11.740 is now

01:09:12.680 real.

01:09:14.340 And

01:09:14.780 it looks

01:09:15.380 like that's

01:09:15.820 going to

01:09:16.020 be

01:09:16.180 persistent,

01:09:17.100 meaning

01:09:17.320 that people

01:09:17.820 will still

01:09:18.240 regard

01:09:18.800 Trump

01:09:19.340 as the

01:09:20.260 legally

01:09:20.620 elected

01:09:21.340 president

01:09:21.900 even if

01:09:24.260 he's

01:09:24.480 out of

01:09:24.780 office.

01:09:29.420 Somebody

01:09:29.940 says it

01:09:30.380 will be

01:09:30.620 a guerrilla

01:09:31.160 civil war.

01:09:32.160 No,

01:09:33.100 it won't

01:09:33.580 be.

01:09:34.360 You know,

01:09:34.820 the thing

01:09:35.140 that you

01:09:35.400 can really,

01:09:36.140 really count

01:09:36.780 on is

01:09:37.880 that nobody

01:09:38.260 wants a

01:09:38.800 civil war.

01:09:39.740 Nobody

01:09:40.000 wants it.

01:09:41.060 You would

01:09:41.440 have to

01:09:41.720 have somebody

01:09:42.140 wanting it.

01:09:43.420 That's the

01:09:43.920 minimum

01:09:44.240 requirement

01:09:44.940 for a

01:09:45.360 civil war.

01:09:46.540 I don't

01:09:47.120 know anybody

01:09:47.480 who wants

01:09:47.840 it.

01:09:48.020 on either

01:09:48.940 side.

01:09:51.800 Somebody

01:09:52.480 says I

01:09:52.940 do.

01:09:53.780 No,

01:09:54.220 you don't.

01:09:55.980 China

01:09:56.340 wants one.

01:09:57.500 I don't

01:09:58.300 even know

01:09:58.560 if they

01:09:58.760 do.

01:09:59.720 Do you

01:10:00.000 think China

01:10:00.600 would want

01:10:01.540 the United

01:10:02.560 States to

01:10:03.200 destroy

01:10:03.620 itself?

01:10:05.160 Maybe.

01:10:06.520 Could be.

01:10:10.140 People

01:10:10.800 are too

01:10:11.220 comfortable

01:10:11.680 to want a

01:10:12.420 civil war.

01:10:13.000 That's

01:10:13.220 correct.

01:10:13.560 We are

01:10:14.580 too

01:10:14.780 comfortable.

01:10:15.160 somebody

01:10:17.160 says you

01:10:17.700 don't

01:10:17.880 think

01:10:18.120 AOC

01:10:18.540 wants

01:10:19.020 the

01:10:19.300 GOP

01:10:19.920 in

01:10:20.200 jail?

01:10:20.620 Yeah,

01:10:20.780 I think

01:10:21.040 so.

01:10:21.740 I do

01:10:22.080 think so,

01:10:22.580 but I

01:10:23.180 don't

01:10:23.340 think that

01:10:23.840 that's

01:10:24.280 going to

01:10:24.480 happen

01:10:24.700 outside of

01:10:25.240 the

01:10:25.360 legal

01:10:25.600 system.

01:10:28.060 All right,

01:10:28.640 that's all I

01:10:28.980 got for now,

01:10:29.540 and I will

01:10:30.080 talk to you

01:10:30.800 tomorrow as

01:10:31.780 well.

01:10:31.940 Now,

01:10:33.540 I am

01:10:33.900 the

01:10:34.680 ians

01:10:39.780 and I

01:10:41.480 have

01:10:41.520 time

01:10:42.380 to

01:10:43.980 go.
