00:00:00.960 You know, it just occurred to me that when I was a kid, it would have been hard to do
00:00:06.720 this even if we had this technology, because all of our clocks were different.
00:00:13.000 When I was a kid, most of our clocks were on slightly different times.
00:00:18.740 So if you wanted to live stream when I was a kid, even if you could do the live stream
00:00:24.500 part, you wouldn't be able to do the starting simultaneous part, because people would be
00:00:30.300 like, I don't know, my watch says you're five minutes early, and half the other people would
00:00:36.760 be, it looks like you're about 10 minutes late, according to me.
00:00:40.580 But thanks to the miracle of technology, every one of you has the correct time, and here you
00:00:46.860 are.
00:00:47.940 So glad you're here, and if you'd like to enjoy it to its fullest extent, you know what you
00:00:53.460 need, it's a cup or a mug or a glass, a tank or gel, or a stein, a canteen jug, or a flask,
00:00:58.440 a vessel of any kind.
00:01:02.220 Fill it with your favorite liquid, I like coffee, and join me now for the unparalleled pleasure,
00:01:09.800 the dopamine hit of the day, the thing that makes everything better.
00:01:14.100 Yeah, it's called the simultaneous sip.
00:01:15.880 Ah, and I hope you sipped when I did, I forgot to say go.
00:01:24.480 But if you did, savor it, savor it, okay.
00:01:31.040 You gotta stop and smell the coffee sometimes.
00:01:34.500 Well, have you all heard that, yeah, Periscope is going to be discontinued, but fear not, I
00:01:43.240 will not be discontinued, I will not be canceled yet.
00:01:48.600 So in March, apparently Periscope will be discontinued, but you have the following options.
00:01:54.920 Number one, there may, may or may not be, I do not know, a replacement.
00:02:04.640 So Periscope will go away, but we don't know if Twitter will offer some kind of a replacement.
00:02:10.560 Let's just say I've heard, I've heard chatter that would suggest that's at least a possibility.
00:02:19.320 But in the meantime, I'm always live on YouTube, where I am live streaming even right now,
00:02:27.180 as you listen to me.
00:02:28.860 And of course, I'll be on Locals, a subscription platform that has this stuff, plus all of my
00:02:36.840 stuff that I don't show you here, because I would get in trouble.
00:02:41.700 So the stuff I put on the Locals platform, Locals.com, I do the stuff that I think would
00:02:49.920 be maybe a little too edgy here, or extra stuff and lessons on persuasion to turn you into a
00:02:57.840 superstar.
00:03:00.440 So those are similar options, and it's also available on podcasts if you want to listen
00:03:04.500 to it.
00:03:05.300 Hey, there's a bunch of good news on COVID.
00:03:09.660 Oh, and also, I'm live on Rumble as well.
00:03:13.580 So I don't know if, I think we're updated on that.
00:03:18.660 So Rumble as well, and also Rockafin.
00:03:22.260 So any one of those, you can find it.
00:03:26.020 Good news on COVID.
00:03:30.400 You've heard this before, but it's going to a new level, which is dogs being trained to
00:03:36.240 detect COVID by sniffing your armpit.
00:03:39.480 Now, apparently, you don't need the dog to actually get up in there.
00:03:45.220 You can just take some kind of a towelette and swab your armpit, make it available to
00:03:52.640 the dog.
00:03:53.440 And the dog, they believe, the people studying this, and there are a number of pilot programs
00:03:58.800 going on.
00:03:59.780 But the people looking into it think the dog would be able to get up to between 75% and
00:04:05.880 100% effectiveness.
00:04:09.220 Now, imagine how quickly you could test if the dog could do it.
00:04:14.520 Let's say you get off an airplane or something, and they want to test you when you reach the
00:04:20.440 ground.
00:04:21.100 Everybody gets a moist towelette.
00:04:23.040 Everybody goes rat, rat, rat, stand in line.
00:04:25.900 The dog just walks down the line.
00:04:27.720 Boom, the entire plane is cleared.
00:04:30.640 It's pretty good.
00:04:31.480 But this is one of those weird situations where the least expected solution might be the one
00:04:40.360 that is just the kill shot.
00:04:42.340 Because if you can train dogs to do this, there's no technology that's going to come close.
00:04:49.120 Because literally, the dog can just walk through a whole crowd as long as they've swabbed themselves
00:04:56.060 and made it available, test the whole room, you know, 10 minutes.
00:04:59.860 So, and how long does it take to train a dog to detect a certain smell?
00:05:08.020 I don't know the answer to that.
00:05:09.920 But I'll bet it's not hard.
00:05:12.040 I'll bet it's not the hardest thing you've ever trained a dog to do.
00:05:15.800 So, dogs might be our savior.
00:05:17.840 There are a number of pilot programs going on and look kind of promising.
00:05:23.440 Now, of course, the other big, big news is the vaccines being rolled out and all the conversation
00:05:29.920 about who gets the vaccination first.
00:05:34.100 And all that conversation has been kind of boring because everybody says the same thing.
00:05:39.220 Let us discuss who should get the vaccines first.
00:05:44.080 All right.
00:05:44.480 I'll give you my novel opinion.
00:05:46.400 You may not have heard this before, but I'm thinking people in rest homes and nursing homes
00:05:54.220 and maybe frontline health care workers, just like 100% of the other people in the world.
00:06:02.840 Why are we even talking about it?
00:06:05.220 Does anyone disagree?
00:06:07.220 Now, those are the easy ones, right?
00:06:08.840 But there's also a big conversation about who should do it in front of the public.
00:06:16.140 Because wouldn't you like to see Joe Biden get a vaccination in public?
00:06:21.880 That would be good for, I think, confidence.
00:06:25.320 And I think that's good, too.
00:06:26.540 And I'll tell you, in my opinion, I'm pretty sure the vaccine is going to be safe.
00:06:32.020 But just in case, you know, again, I'm really sure the vaccinations will be safe.
00:06:42.700 But just in case, don't you think we should do Kamala before Joe Biden?
00:06:50.860 Yeah, think about it.
00:06:52.500 Think about it.
00:06:53.080 Just in case.
00:06:55.500 But the other thing that you should not do when you're deciding who should be on TV getting
00:07:00.760 the vaccination, you should not pick a cartoonist to go first.
00:07:06.680 Let me tell you how that would go.
00:07:09.560 Because I've thought, you know, I'm a public figure.
00:07:14.100 So as a public figure, you know, I don't want to jump the line.
00:07:18.900 And in fact, I'd like to go last if I could.
00:07:21.900 But I thought, well, maybe I have some responsibility, right?
00:07:24.920 To show the public, you know, that I'm willing to get the vaccination.
00:07:33.060 But I'm really the wrong person to do it on TV or any kind of a live stream.
00:07:38.220 Because I'm pretty sure I know how I would play it.
00:07:42.020 And it would be like this.
00:07:43.900 You know, I'd be like, okay, give it to me.
00:07:48.760 And I always look away.
00:07:50.180 I don't like the look.
00:07:51.100 You know, I don't mind getting shots, actually.
00:07:53.960 I just don't like looking at it.
00:07:56.720 So I look away.
00:07:57.940 And there'd be a little pinch.
00:07:59.440 You know, they'd be like, you're going to feel a little pinch.
00:08:01.980 And I'd be like, and I'd be like, oh, oh, you're done?
00:08:08.740 Well, that's not bad.
00:08:10.120 I really thought it was going to be more than that.
00:08:12.260 It's a little bit.
00:08:12.780 There's just like a little bit of a, you know, you can feel it.
00:08:15.840 I mean, you can feel that I got the vaccination.
00:08:18.280 But I've been hearing people say, you know, it was getting really stiff and stuff.
00:08:24.500 Actually, I can feel a little stiffness coming.
00:08:26.960 Yeah, a little bit coming.
00:08:29.000 Whoa.
00:08:29.620 Whew.
00:08:30.860 Whoa.
00:08:31.920 Whew.
00:08:32.340 Well, that packs quite a punch.
00:08:34.580 Nothing you can't handle, really.
00:08:36.200 But, oh, God.
00:08:38.480 Whoa.
00:08:40.740 I feel like I might pass out here.
00:08:43.060 But I'll be fine.
00:08:44.120 And I highly recommend you should all get the...
00:08:47.180 Ow.
00:08:48.200 Whoa.
00:08:48.640 Whoa.
00:08:48.980 Ha, ha, ha.
00:08:56.840 For those of you listening on podcast, what you missed was a hilarious impression of me becoming frozen.
00:09:06.560 Now, I will say again, I will get the vaccination.
00:09:12.000 I'm sure the vaccination is safe.
00:09:14.560 If you didn't hear the story of how the vaccination process got sped up by Trump, it's really interesting.
00:09:25.300 So here's a little tidbit that I heard just yesterday listening to the news, which was that the normal process, if they do a big study,
00:09:34.400 is that the FDA, I think it's the FDA, and whoever they work with, looks at the data for something like six months.
00:09:48.300 I did not misspeak.
00:09:50.960 After a controlled study of a new drug, the FDA will look at the data and really study it for six months.
00:10:01.620 I think I got that right, six months.
00:10:04.920 Now, have you ever studied data?
00:10:08.500 I've studied data.
00:10:10.400 I've done it for a living.
00:10:12.060 I've never seen any data I needed to study for six months.
00:10:16.120 The study itself might take six months.
00:10:19.440 But studying the data took six months until Trump said, not anymore, basically.
00:10:33.280 Trump basically just said, no.
00:10:36.940 How about no?
00:10:38.600 It doesn't take six months to look at fucking data.
00:10:41.780 What the hell were they doing all the time up until now if it took them months to look at data?
00:10:52.220 Do you know how long it should take?
00:10:54.940 Even if there's a lot of data, how long it should take?
00:10:59.960 I'm thinking days.
00:11:02.360 I'm not thinking months.
00:11:03.760 And now, apparently, the people who do these things said, oh, well, I guess we'll just do it in a more reasonable, compressed amount of time.
00:11:13.640 I think they got it down to, I have my numbers approximate, but it was like something like taking it from six months down to one month.
00:11:22.600 And I'm still saying to myself, a month?
00:11:26.520 What exactly takes a month?
00:11:28.260 I can't think of any data that would take a month to look at.
00:11:35.220 If it takes a month to look at it, somebody organized it poorly.
00:11:39.820 So you really need to be talking to whoever gave you the data, because there should be things like summaries and totals at the bottoms of columns and stuff.
00:11:49.380 I feel like they should have done a lot of work for you.
00:11:53.280 I don't know.
00:11:53.960 I was just amazed by that.
00:11:55.100 So when you hear that Trump did the impossible with the warp speed stuff, maybe it was the impossible for other people, but he just sort of made it happen, and then they just did it.
00:12:11.700 And that's a lesson in management.
00:12:15.360 Let me give you the rookie lesson in management, followed by the experienced person's lesson in management.
00:12:23.780 Here's what young people and people who do not have experience think management would look like.
00:12:31.060 The manager comes in and says to the project experts, you know, the manager doesn't know much, but the people working on the project know the details of the project.
00:12:41.440 And the manager says, I need you to be done in a month.
00:12:44.000 And the project experts say, whoa, I know that's what you want, but let me show you the timelines, the dependencies on the project.
00:12:53.820 There isn't actually any way to do this in less than two months.
00:12:59.380 All right.
00:12:59.720 Now, the inexperienced manager way to look at this is, well, the person who knows a lot more than I do, and I hired them and I trust them, says it's going to take two months.
00:13:11.440 I wanted it in one, but I guess I have to accept two months.
00:13:16.400 That's the inexperienced person's view of management.
00:13:20.700 Here's the experienced person's view of management.
00:13:23.520 I'd like this to be done in one month.
00:13:26.700 It's very important.
00:13:28.240 Expert says, no way to do this in less than two months, and here's my reasons why.
00:13:33.920 Manager looks blankly at expert and says, do it in one fucking month.
00:13:39.860 And then the expert does it in one month, but without the fucking part, because the manager usually leaves that part out.
00:13:47.520 That's what an experienced manager does, because they know that just about everything can be done faster.
00:13:54.240 And they have a sense of what that means in any particular context, if they're good managers.
00:14:00.260 So when Trump was presented, I wasn't in the room, but one can imagine something like this happened.
00:14:07.500 You can imagine somebody saying to Trump, here's the process, and the reason it takes all these years to do a vaccine is that it takes six months to look at the data.
00:14:17.120 And you can imagine the look on Trump's face.
00:14:19.480 I don't know if any of this happened in real life, but you can imagine this.
00:14:22.960 Imagine Trump listening to somebody tell him that the phase of just looking at the frickin' data was going to take six months.
00:14:32.800 Just imagine what he said, right?
00:14:37.520 I'll tell you what he didn't say.
00:14:40.000 Well, you're the experts.
00:14:41.660 I guess it takes six months to look at data.
00:14:44.180 No.
00:14:45.440 No.
00:14:45.840 Maybe Biden would do that, because Biden says, listen to the experts, right?
00:14:50.880 Maybe he would have said, what can you do?
00:14:53.620 Every single expert just said six months.
00:14:56.880 If that's what it takes to look at data, and nobody's telling me it could be done faster, what are you going to do?
00:15:02.780 But I think Trump, like an experienced manager, and exactly what I would have said, had I been president in the room, I would have said, stop, stop, hold on.
00:15:15.180 I'm going to need a little more explanation about this six months to look at data, because you're not producing the data, you're just looking at it.
00:15:26.180 You're going to have to get that six months down to a little bit shorter, or somebody's going to be fired.
00:15:33.680 I'm guessing that that was a lot of what it looked like behind closed doors, just, you know, conceptually.
00:15:42.040 Anyway, so vaccine's coming.
00:15:47.540 Today, at 1 p.m. Eastern Time, that would be 10 a.m. for you Californians, I'm going to do a separate live stream interview with Razeeb Khan,
00:16:00.560 who's a spokesperson for Traitwell, T-R-A-I-T-W-E-L-L, and he's a geneticist, and he'll tell us about Traitwell's new system, I guess you'd say,
00:16:15.120 where you can upload your DNA and some other information, and it will tell you your relative COVID risk.
00:16:23.940 How cool is that?
00:16:25.760 Now, does it work?
00:16:27.620 Is it real?
00:16:28.340 Well, these are the questions I will ask him, and I don't know the answers to the questions.
00:16:34.100 We'll find out.
00:16:35.380 But imagine if you're trying to figure out who should get the vaccination first.
00:16:41.180 We'll also ask him about DNA and privacy and stuff like that.
00:16:44.800 So I'll get into that.
00:16:45.860 So imagine if we could find out that some people have much lower risk than other people,
00:16:53.580 and even after you've accounted for comorbidities and lifestyle and age and all that.
00:17:00.120 That should probably help us, right?
00:17:02.260 If we could actually say, well, if we're going to do the high-risk people first,
00:17:08.620 it should at least help you identify them.
00:17:10.300 All right, other good news.
00:17:13.220 It's just all good news day on COVID.
00:17:16.160 The FDA is actually authorizing its first over-the-counter at-home COVID test.
00:17:22.740 You've been hearing me complaining about the lack of the rapid tests for a while now.
00:17:28.220 Now, I don't think this is exactly the same thing I've been talking about,
00:17:32.640 because this might be a little bit of a higher end, higher, I don't know,
00:17:37.460 but it might be a higher sensitivity, but costs a little bit more.
00:17:42.660 It still takes only 15 to 20 minutes to get a result at home with just your own nasal swab test.
00:17:49.340 You don't have to send it anywhere.
00:17:51.260 It comes with an app.
00:17:52.760 And I think that'll be available in a few months.
00:17:56.100 That's huge.
00:17:56.720 Now, the problem is, oh, is somebody saying, can he identify adverse reactions to the vaccine?
00:18:07.740 I'm sure that's not part of what they do at Traitwell, but it's a heck of a question.
00:18:14.700 That's a heck of a question.
00:18:15.880 I'll ask him that.
00:18:17.000 Thank you.
00:18:17.460 So, I had been saying that I thought there must be some kind of either,
00:18:27.140 while I was actually speculating, there was some kind of corruption in our government
00:18:31.080 for not already having approved these over-the-counter cheap tests.
00:18:36.140 I still think that's more likely the case than other explanations for why it wasn't here sooner
00:18:41.960 and why we don't have more of them and maybe the lower sensitivity tests as well.
00:18:47.160 There's still something going on.
00:18:48.600 But when you hear that it takes six months to look at data, I start saying, oh, maybe it
00:18:55.100 is possible that incompetence could explain it.
00:18:58.820 You know?
00:18:59.160 Because I had ruled out incompetence just because it's so long now that you couldn't possibly
00:19:05.400 say, well, things just take a long time.
00:19:08.740 Like, I was ruling that out.
00:19:10.220 But now you hear how long it really takes, or it used to take, before Trump was kicking
00:19:14.680 their butts, and you say to yourself, it's actually, maybe it wasn't corruption.
00:19:20.800 Could it be they were actually just that incompetent?
00:19:24.580 I didn't want to believe it, because it's easier to believe corruption, but maybe.
00:19:29.220 Who knows?
00:19:32.400 Other good news, COVID-wise, is that McConnell says, Mitch McConnell says that the top leaders
00:19:40.080 in Congress are going to stay behind and not go home from Washington over the holidays
00:19:46.320 until they get an agreement.
00:19:48.700 So he's talking about the funding for COVID relief in a variety of ways.
00:19:54.380 But if the rest of Congress goes home, does it matter that the leadership makes an agreement?
00:20:01.720 Because they can't vote on it, because everybody went home.
00:20:05.120 So isn't it really just an agreement to see if they can agree among themselves, so then
00:20:12.960 they can go home?
00:20:14.260 But when Congress comes back, the rest of Congress might not agree.
00:20:18.720 So it looks like just a clever way to go home for Christmas without an agreement, or at least
00:20:25.320 without any legislation.
00:20:27.020 So the whole thing looks like bullshit to me.
00:20:29.140 But, you know, at least they know the optics look bad if they all go home.
00:20:35.220 So that's something.
00:20:38.600 What are we going to do with history?
00:20:42.220 It seems to me that in the old days, the winning team got to decide what the history was for
00:20:48.360 the country, right?
00:20:49.560 So if your country won the war, you get to write the history of the war, and you write it
00:20:54.960 your way.
00:20:55.340 But in the old days, history would have basically one version per country, at least through high
00:21:03.540 school and most of college.
00:21:05.500 You could find other versions, but there would be a mainstream version.
00:21:10.300 Now, history is being written and permanently recorded in the Internet.
00:21:15.680 So everything that's happening will just sort of always be there, we think.
00:21:20.660 So how do you deal with the fact that there are two completely different histories?
00:21:25.340 How do you write a history book at, let's say, the college level that would include this
00:21:33.060 era?
00:21:35.020 What would you say about the Trump administration?
00:21:38.980 Would you say Russia collusion was real?
00:21:42.060 Would you say the fine people hoax actually happened?
00:21:46.820 Would you say that the president really did suggest drinking bleach?
00:21:52.860 Because these are the things that will become the permanent record that become the new way that
00:22:00.260 history is recorded.
00:22:01.720 It's no longer some consensus, you know, winner puts it in one version.
00:22:07.380 Literally, what do you do when you don't have one history anymore?
00:22:12.280 There will be at least two histories, minimum.
00:22:15.600 You know, you argue lots of them.
00:22:19.720 But I'm thinking that, well, let me put it in concrete terms.
00:22:25.260 Imagine if history simply followed CNN's reporting.
00:22:31.280 Right?
00:22:32.580 Imagine if they just didn't vary from whatever CNN reported, and we would allow that if CNN
00:22:39.180 ever, you know, corrected anything, that the correction would stand.
00:22:43.200 But basically, the CNN's version of the world, suppose you just took that and put it in a
00:22:49.820 history class or textbook and said, here's your history.
00:22:53.820 It was in the news.
00:22:56.420 And, you know, the New York Times agreed with them, and the Washington Post agreed with them.
00:23:00.960 There's your news.
00:23:01.780 Yeah, think about it.
00:23:04.920 Would that be an actual history?
00:23:07.680 That's scary.
00:23:09.420 I don't even know what they will teach in school.
00:23:11.880 I like actually, literally, I don't know how they would teach it, because who would agree
00:23:16.640 what the real history was?
00:23:18.060 So here's what I'm thinking is our current situation.
00:23:21.480 When it comes to investing, I'll use an analogy here, in investing, one of the few things that
00:23:28.020 everybody agrees on, no matter what kind of an expert you are on investing, pretty much
00:23:33.860 everybody agrees on one thing.
00:23:36.660 Diversification is really important.
00:23:39.840 Because if you're not diversifying, putting your money in lots of different bets, so that
00:23:44.700 if some of them go bad, you'll at least, by luck, you'll have some that went extra well
00:23:49.040 to compensate.
00:23:51.100 So in finance, if you're trying to, you know, pick one winning stock, you're just a sucker,
00:23:58.020 because people don't, can't do that.
00:24:01.020 You know, we know that people don't have any skill to pick individual stocks.
00:24:05.220 Even really, really good people aren't good at it.
00:24:08.140 But everybody can diversify, right?
00:24:11.580 So diversification fits, it fixes most of the problems that you would have in the way you
00:24:17.360 think about investing.
00:24:18.960 Just get that one thing right, and you're in pretty good shape.
00:24:21.180 And I think the same thing is going to be true for the news and for history, meaning
00:24:27.440 that you will have to read a diverse bunch of sources to actually have any idea what was
00:24:37.020 going on.
00:24:38.400 So you no longer can take a source and say, well, here's my news.
00:24:45.140 You've got to diversify.
00:24:46.460 If you're not watching the news on the left and the right, you're not watching anything.
00:24:52.900 And I wouldn't say that either of them get it right.
00:24:55.640 They get different things wrong at different times.
00:24:58.560 But if you're not seeing both, you don't know what's going on.
00:25:03.160 You really don't know what's going on.
00:25:04.800 So Congress, I mentioned this yesterday, reached this big energy deal, it looks like, that includes
00:25:13.700 nuclear energy, some new technologies for that, promoting that stuff, and also carbon
00:25:20.600 capture.
00:25:21.680 Now, every person who's, let's say, in the middle, the political middle, thinks these
00:25:28.900 are good ideas.
00:25:29.780 I'm exaggerating a little bit.
00:25:30.920 But I would say that people in the middle, whether they're Democrats or Republicans, if
00:25:36.340 they're in the middle, they probably like nuclear energy.
00:25:40.660 Now, on the right, they might like nuclear energy all the way from left to right.
00:25:46.380 But pretty much, it's a good middle position, nuclear power.
00:25:51.280 No matter what you think of climate change, you still probably think nuclear energy is required.
00:25:56.140 And carbon capture, I don't think anybody disagrees with it.
00:25:59.760 If some company wants to capture the carbon out of the air, which is a thing, and turn
00:26:05.280 it into commercial products, why not?
00:26:08.860 How could that be a bad idea?
00:26:10.740 So here's my point that I'm working toward.
00:26:16.620 I feel as if we get lost in what Greg Goffeld often refers to as this prison of two ideas,
00:26:24.640 that you've either got your Republican or you've got your Democrat, you know, you've
00:26:30.160 got your lefties or your righties, and your government is going to be one of those two
00:26:36.340 things.
00:26:36.960 Or if you're lucky, it could be, you know, deadlocked.
00:26:40.080 But I think there might be something that's even better than that, which is alternating Trump-like
00:26:51.740 presidents with Biden-like presidents.
00:26:55.780 In other words, the best situation might be not a Trump-like candidate forever and not a
00:27:03.520 Biden-like candidate forever.
00:27:05.200 It might be, and I would make a strong argument for this, actually, and I'm going to right
00:27:10.140 now, that your best situation is to alternate.
00:27:14.140 And the reason is that they have different skills, and there are some problems that some
00:27:18.740 of them can solve, the other cannot.
00:27:21.080 So let me give you an example of some things that I think Trump was uniquely qualified for.
00:27:27.340 And if he hadn't done what he had done, much of it will be lasting, I think.
00:27:31.580 If he had not done those things, another president, I don't think, could have done these things.
00:27:37.560 But I'm going to tell you that also there might be some things that Biden can get done
00:27:41.360 that you would want to get done, things that you would want that even Trump couldn't get
00:27:46.180 done because he was, you know, sort of polarizing, to say the least.
00:27:50.220 So here are things that Trump probably did that are close to impossible.
00:27:54.080 So the Middle East peace deals, making North Korea sort of a little buddy that doesn't bother
00:27:59.140 us too much, Project Warp Speed, incredible success, decoupling from China.
00:28:04.920 I don't think you would have seen that from really anybody else.
00:28:08.280 I don't think anybody would have been as effective with ISIS, and we haven't had much terrorism
00:28:13.820 problems, have we?
00:28:15.440 I don't think anybody would have done as good a job with Iran if you think that that approach
00:28:20.360 to it was the right way to go to, you know, put them in a position where they'll have to
00:28:25.040 negotiate, which is about where they are now.
00:28:28.220 Trump got not just good employment, he had record low unemployment.
00:28:34.500 I don't know if another president could have done that.
00:28:38.060 You know, he did the NAFTA deals, he's done other trade deals that probably wouldn't have
00:28:42.720 happened.
00:28:43.460 He broke records for appointing judges.
00:28:45.740 If you like that kind of judge, probably, you know, you needed Trump to have.
00:28:49.760 If Trump had not gotten elected against all odds, all of those positions would have gone
00:28:56.720 the other way.
00:28:58.020 And that's a pretty big, big deal, if you like that kind of judge.
00:29:04.440 And I would argue that even Trump's wall design for the wall with the border of Mexico, that
00:29:11.000 even if Biden says he doesn't like it and doesn't want to build a wall, he's a little bit stuck.
00:29:17.540 And here's why.
00:29:18.340 You can get rid of bad policies, but it's hard to get rid of bad design.
00:29:24.380 And what Trump did was good design, working with the experts.
00:29:29.140 So the specific kind of wall that Trump is putting up, even though it's replacement for,
00:29:34.460 you know, bad wall that even the Democrats thought should be replaced, his good design
00:29:40.800 is probably so good it's going to make a difference compared to the little walls and fences they
00:29:47.020 had before.
00:29:47.460 I would expect that Biden is going to end up making noise about tearing down the wall or
00:29:55.100 not building it.
00:29:56.100 And it will sort of drift and morph into, OK, we're only going to put wall where we had
00:30:02.520 wall before, which turns out to be the best place to put it.
00:30:06.400 Because where we had wall before, it wasn't a good wall.
00:30:10.600 But the only reason there was any wall there at all is because we really needed one.
00:30:14.740 So if you replace the bad wall with good wall, which even Democrats would agree with, because
00:30:20.400 you'd say, we're not building more wall.
00:30:22.180 We're just making sure that, you know, these particular places don't have an issue.
00:30:26.880 And hey, we got this good design.
00:30:29.340 And even the experts are still saying it's the best design.
00:30:32.660 It wasn't, you know, Trump's personal, you know, design.
00:30:36.080 It was the experts that Trump approved.
00:30:38.460 So I think Biden is going to have to keep even the wall design, because it just was a better
00:30:45.460 wall.
00:30:46.240 They just figured out how to do it better.
00:30:48.420 You know, I think that'll last.
00:30:50.320 And I think even Biden will, he'll not be as tight as Trump on the border, but even he's
00:30:59.040 going to have to do the obvious stuff.
00:31:01.320 How about nuclear energy?
00:31:03.300 Oh, let me go down the list.
00:31:06.740 The other things that Trump did that I think wouldn't have been done, he took a swipe at
00:31:12.420 the pharma costs.
00:31:14.180 I don't know if that's going to be successful, but that thing where you get the most favorite
00:31:20.160 nation's pricing, I don't think anybody else would have even tried that.
00:31:24.860 There's the telehealth across state lines.
00:31:27.860 I don't think anybody else would have changed regulations as readily as Trump did.
00:31:33.980 So there's a whole bunch of things that you just couldn't have gotten that are either
00:31:39.120 permanent or at least sticky, and you get to keep that stuff.
00:31:44.120 Now, here's what a Biden could bring you, even if you're a Republican.
00:31:48.860 You ready?
00:31:49.220 I think Biden could do more for nuclear energy than Trump.
00:31:55.280 For whatever reason, Trump didn't like to speak about nuclear energy.
00:31:59.680 He was in favor of it.
00:32:01.340 You know, he's mentioned it sort of in a list of stuff.
00:32:04.620 But Biden probably wouldn't get as much pushback from the left.
00:32:08.400 So maybe he can make something happen, sell nuclear energy as it properly should be sold
00:32:14.440 to the left as green energy.
00:32:17.020 That's really all he has to do.
00:32:18.240 If Biden comes out tomorrow and says, hey, you need to know that nuclear energy is green
00:32:24.940 energy, and it's not just important, it's probably the most important thing.
00:32:29.740 If Biden said that out loud, suddenly, you know, you could have a pretty robust, more robust
00:32:37.860 nuclear energy thing.
00:32:38.860 You might do something with health care if he's a little less polarizing.
00:32:43.480 Maybe he'll get something done with transportation.
00:32:46.140 Maybe he can do more to tamp down BLM and Antifa, who are really just a, they felt like a Trump
00:32:52.340 response.
00:32:53.360 So there might be a bunch of stuff you don't like about Biden, and I'm not going to argue
00:32:56.700 that.
00:32:57.100 There was also a bunch of stuff you probably didn't like about Trump, even if you supported
00:33:02.080 him.
00:33:02.880 My only point is that if each of these people do sticky things, meaning that if each of
00:33:09.260 them do what they can do that are good things, the good things stick.
00:33:14.700 And then maybe it's time to try something else next time to pick up those holes that the other
00:33:21.120 one left behind.
00:33:23.020 Here's my take on the Eric Swalwell Chinese spy lover story.
00:33:28.980 Now, I don't know if the lover part has been, is just alleged or confirmed.
00:33:34.440 I know that his staff, at least at one point, refused to deny that they were intimately involved,
00:33:42.720 which doesn't mean they were.
00:33:45.760 It just means that that's, I guess you have to just say that's part of the story.
00:33:51.380 I don't like to say that about anybody, you know, unless I saw it with my own eyes, you
00:33:57.320 know, and I wouldn't want to see it with my own eyes, but it's just part of the story.
00:34:01.860 Now, let's say that you believe that Swalwell was too close to the Chinese spy, and some people
00:34:10.620 are saying he should be removed from the Intelligence Committee, because that sounds bad, right?
00:34:16.940 Chinese spy, Intelligence Committee, pretty bad.
00:34:21.020 But the defense against that is that there is no evidence that he revealed any secrets.
00:34:28.560 Now, I'll bet that's, I'll bet that's true.
00:34:33.880 You know, whatever you want to say about Swalwell, he is also smart enough, and he's, you know,
00:34:40.180 background as an attorney.
00:34:42.400 I think that he would be smart enough that he would not have revealed any intelligence
00:34:48.800 secrets to even somebody he was close to.
00:34:51.480 And I have no reason to believe that he did.
00:34:56.620 But, is that your only problem?
00:35:00.640 I don't think that's your only problem.
00:35:03.300 Now, even if you could imagine that he was smart enough not to let any state secrets get
00:35:09.360 to any civilian, it shouldn't matter whether it was a spy or just a civilian, should have
00:35:15.040 been the same standard of, you know, no way, no how for the secret stuff.
00:35:19.360 And I feel like he probably did that.
00:35:22.120 But here's the real risk.
00:35:24.460 If you were a planted Chinese spy, now I'm using the word spy, I think that's fair, right?
00:35:32.720 Wouldn't you say?
00:35:34.340 And if you were a planted spy, would you be untrained?
00:35:40.860 Or do they just say, hey, Christine Fang, Fang Fang as we like to call you, your assignment
00:35:49.300 is this young politician, and your job is to go help China?
00:35:56.700 Then what would she say?
00:35:58.480 Help you in what way?
00:36:00.480 Well, you're going to go do things with Swalwell and get close to him and see what you can do.
00:36:07.780 And then she would say, see what I can do in what way?
00:36:12.720 Can you be more specific?
00:36:15.240 Am I stealing secrets?
00:36:17.660 It's, what am I doing?
00:36:19.640 Well, yes, if you get an opportunity to find out any secrets, that's part of it.
00:36:25.020 But here's the part the news leaves out.
00:36:28.680 Don't you think she was trained to persuade?
00:36:32.020 She's not just a receiver, right?
00:36:36.260 If you're going to go through all the trouble to plant Chinese spies all around the world
00:36:43.760 in key positions, are you going to send them there untrained?
00:36:48.280 You're not going to send her there untrained.
00:36:51.020 Now, let me give you a full scary thought.
00:36:55.060 Now, since I don't know if she is trained or trained in what way,
00:36:58.640 this is all speculation.
00:37:02.480 All right?
00:37:04.600 Somebody's calling me a Democrat apologist.
00:37:07.100 You might want to wait.
00:37:09.500 If you think I'm a Democrat apologist, you might want to wait.
00:37:13.200 And by the way, if you think I'm a Democrat apologist, you're a fucking idiot.
00:37:20.580 And you shouldn't be watching this live stream.
00:37:22.920 You should really find some other content that's less challenging.
00:37:26.840 Because that's not what I do here.
00:37:29.360 It's not my job to be an apologist for anybody.
00:37:32.360 And anybody who's been around long enough knows I will take any position that seems reasonable,
00:37:41.140 no matter where that is.
00:37:42.660 I don't need to be anybody's fucking apologist.
00:37:45.520 So just go away.
00:37:47.260 Go watch some other content that's more to your liking.
00:37:51.420 So here's my take on Swalwell.
00:37:53.420 If you really want to be frightened of what's the worst-case scenario,
00:37:58.220 imagine if Fang Fang had my skill just for persuasion.
00:38:06.000 Now, I don't mean just me specifically,
00:38:09.340 but anybody who was trained the way I was.
00:38:14.880 Or indeed, anybody who's even read my books.
00:38:18.620 Would you want a Chinese spy
00:38:20.760 getting close to one of our politicians
00:38:23.960 who had read any of my books?
00:38:28.220 Right?
00:38:29.440 It's kind of dangerous.
00:38:31.300 So what do we know Swalwell was doing?
00:38:36.280 At least at one point,
00:38:37.780 he was selling the idea that there was Russia collusion.
00:38:41.680 And you know how I'm always surprised
00:38:44.080 when I find out that Democrats believe what they're saying?
00:38:48.880 Imagine, if you will,
00:38:50.660 that the reason that Swalwell was so convinced
00:38:53.220 there was Russia collusion
00:38:54.680 is that maybe that had been suggested to him
00:38:57.920 by somebody who was really, really well-trained
00:39:01.900 as suggesting things.
00:39:06.040 Think about it.
00:39:07.640 We just went through years
00:39:10.700 of this pissant, Eric Swalwell,
00:39:13.760 looking the public straight in the eye
00:39:16.060 and telling us he was pretty sure
00:39:18.320 this was all Russia collusion.
00:39:20.160 Then, what if he fucking believed it?
00:39:25.080 Now, was there any point
00:39:26.600 when you thought he actually believed it?
00:39:29.080 Because you say to yourself,
00:39:30.380 they don't believe that.
00:39:31.620 It's just something they're saying.
00:39:33.420 Right?
00:39:35.120 He might have believed it.
00:39:37.920 He might still believe it.
00:39:40.840 Because if you spend enough time
00:39:43.440 with somebody who is trained
00:39:45.460 as well as, let's say, I am,
00:39:47.600 just as an example.
00:39:50.000 I'm not, like, the world's greatest persuader.
00:39:52.620 I just am trained.
00:39:54.600 If you spend enough time
00:39:56.040 with somebody who is trained,
00:39:57.680 you will believe anything.
00:40:00.320 There's almost no limit
00:40:01.940 to what a trained persuader
00:40:04.320 could make a Swalwell believe.
00:40:07.380 You want to even be more afraid?
00:40:10.240 Here it goes.
00:40:10.920 20% of all people,
00:40:14.340 politicians,
00:40:15.760 smart people,
00:40:16.640 dumb people,
00:40:17.300 educated people,
00:40:18.200 uneducated people,
00:40:19.460 people in all countries,
00:40:20.480 about 20%
00:40:21.480 can be convinced
00:40:23.460 of anything.
00:40:26.080 They can be convinced
00:40:27.520 there's something in the room
00:40:28.700 that isn't even there.
00:40:30.080 They can be convinced
00:40:31.380 that it's cold
00:40:32.300 when it's hot.
00:40:34.320 They can be convinced
00:40:35.300 of anything
00:40:35.820 by a trained hypnotist.
00:40:37.320 Now,
00:40:40.040 could China detect
00:40:42.720 who are in the 20%?
00:40:47.180 I don't know,
00:40:49.540 but probably.
00:40:52.620 I don't know,
00:40:54.660 but probably.
00:40:56.200 In other words,
00:40:57.540 there's probably some signal
00:40:59.900 that even hypnotists
00:41:01.340 haven't figured out,
00:41:02.180 by the way.
00:41:02.520 Even a trained hypnotist
00:41:04.480 can't reliably know
00:41:07.000 who's going to be
00:41:07.640 in that 20%
00:41:08.600 short of actually
00:41:09.620 trying it out.
00:41:10.940 It's very misleading.
00:41:12.100 You think you would
00:41:12.900 because your common sense
00:41:14.740 says,
00:41:15.120 well,
00:41:15.820 it's going to be
00:41:16.420 the people
00:41:17.480 that you imagine
00:41:18.280 have weak minds,
00:41:19.860 but it isn't.
00:41:21.640 There's no correlation
00:41:22.800 with intelligence,
00:41:24.780 education,
00:41:25.540 gullibility.
00:41:26.420 There's just no correlation
00:41:27.320 with anything.
00:41:28.660 And hypnotists know that.
00:41:30.240 They know there's
00:41:30.740 no correlation.
00:41:32.400 But,
00:41:33.440 suppose you had
00:41:34.620 massive amounts of data
00:41:36.380 and you could study
00:41:38.000 what influenced
00:41:39.000 some people
00:41:40.100 and then you could find out
00:41:41.740 what signals
00:41:42.420 they give off in advance
00:41:43.820 that would tell you
00:41:45.120 that they're the type of people
00:41:46.600 who could be signaled.
00:41:47.680 For example,
00:41:48.720 suppose you did
00:41:49.300 a mass Chinese experiment
00:41:51.300 on your own public
00:41:52.280 and you tried to influence people
00:41:53.960 to believe something ridiculous,
00:41:56.200 but not harmful
00:41:57.200 because you're just testing.
00:41:59.500 It's ridiculous,
00:42:00.260 but not harmful.
00:42:02.540 Then you find out
00:42:03.800 who believed it
00:42:05.180 and you figure out
00:42:06.740 what is it about these people
00:42:08.000 who believe
00:42:08.580 the most ridiculous stories?
00:42:10.640 What signal
00:42:11.480 do they give off
00:42:12.500 in other realms?
00:42:14.660 The way they talk,
00:42:16.340 some experience
00:42:17.660 they've had.
00:42:19.240 If China
00:42:20.240 has looked for that,
00:42:22.860 they may have found it.
00:42:24.280 I'd love to know
00:42:26.100 what they found
00:42:26.740 because if a hypnotist
00:42:27.920 ever learned that,
00:42:29.500 you'd be in real trouble.
00:42:32.120 Because if they found
00:42:33.880 some signal
00:42:35.160 or some tell
00:42:35.980 where I could just learn it
00:42:37.780 and learn who the 20% are
00:42:40.100 just by observing the public,
00:42:42.560 I would rule the world.
00:42:45.760 I don't even think
00:42:46.680 that's an exaggeration.
00:42:48.380 As long as I...
00:42:49.320 Imagine I'm the only one
00:42:50.680 who knew the secret.
00:42:51.400 If I could tell
00:42:53.060 who the 20% were,
00:42:55.680 I could form an army,
00:42:57.440 I could rule the world.
00:42:59.460 That's how powerful
00:43:00.520 this stuff is.
00:43:01.720 Now,
00:43:02.080 if Swalwell was in the 80%
00:43:03.680 and Fang Fang
00:43:05.860 did not have
00:43:07.180 any special training,
00:43:08.780 it's still super dangerous.
00:43:11.600 But there is a possibility
00:43:13.220 that she had
00:43:13.900 some serious training
00:43:14.940 and it is a possibility
00:43:16.760 he's in the 20%.
00:43:18.200 And if he's not,
00:43:20.920 they've got a lot of agents
00:43:22.420 in a lot of places.
00:43:24.920 Do you know how many times
00:43:26.040 they got the 20% by luck?
00:43:29.680 20%.
00:43:30.280 Yeah.
00:43:31.780 20% of all of those
00:43:33.980 Chinese agents
00:43:34.800 are with somebody
00:43:35.700 who can be convinced
00:43:36.920 of anything.
00:43:39.260 And then they will be
00:43:40.320 running our government.
00:43:41.900 completely unaware
00:43:43.240 that they did not
00:43:44.660 make up their own opinions.
00:43:47.420 And did the news
00:43:48.720 cover this story,
00:43:49.700 which I would consider
00:43:50.520 one of the biggest
00:43:51.540 potential holes
00:43:53.600 in security
00:43:54.480 I've ever seen
00:43:55.260 in my life?
00:43:56.180 And there have been
00:43:56.580 some big ones.
00:43:57.800 CBS gave it
00:43:58.580 zero minutes.
00:43:59.420 NBC,
00:43:59.940 zero minutes.
00:44:00.760 ABC,
00:44:01.380 two minutes.
00:44:02.260 MSNBC,
00:44:03.020 zero minutes.
00:44:04.220 CNN,
00:44:04.540 three minutes.
00:44:07.540 So,
00:44:08.240 there you go.
00:44:09.700 Joe Biden,
00:44:12.360 back in 2007,
00:44:13.820 there's a clip of him
00:44:15.420 on the internet.
00:44:17.040 This is like one of the
00:44:17.900 great historical clip
00:44:21.040 finds of all time.
00:44:22.660 You know,
00:44:22.860 you love going back
00:44:23.680 and finding that
00:44:24.380 hypocritical statement.
00:44:26.000 But this one goes
00:44:27.080 way beyond hypocritical.
00:44:29.960 There are some things
00:44:31.320 that are just hypocritical.
00:44:33.580 But listen to this
00:44:35.020 and tell me if
00:44:36.760 hypocritical captures it.
00:44:38.940 Because I think
00:44:40.160 it's hypocritical.
00:44:41.100 Plus,
00:44:42.060 there's a little extra
00:44:43.040 going on here.
00:44:44.020 I'll tell you about it.
00:44:45.320 And this is a direct quote
00:44:47.240 from Joe Biden
00:44:48.300 on camera
00:44:49.240 talking to the public
00:44:51.200 in 2007.
00:44:54.240 Quote,
00:44:55.500 he's talking about
00:44:56.500 electronic voting machines,
00:44:58.460 which he was not
00:44:59.200 in favor of at the time
00:45:00.480 unless they had
00:45:01.120 paper backup.
00:45:01.940 And he said,
00:45:02.440 quote,
00:45:02.660 how are you going
00:45:04.340 to keep it
00:45:04.900 from us
00:45:05.880 being able
00:45:06.980 to be in a position
00:45:08.140 where you can
00:45:09.500 manipulate the machines,
00:45:11.220 manipulate the records?
00:45:12.800 I think we should
00:45:13.440 pass a federal law
00:45:14.360 mandating that
00:45:15.080 the same machines
00:45:15.740 have paper trails
00:45:17.160 that are mandatory,
00:45:18.480 blah, blah.
00:45:18.940 Let me read this
00:45:19.860 first part again.
00:45:21.880 How are you,
00:45:23.700 who's you?
00:45:25.040 How are you,
00:45:26.500 he's talking to the public.
00:45:27.560 So how are you,
00:45:29.160 the public,
00:45:30.300 going to keep it,
00:45:31.960 meaning the voting
00:45:32.700 machine situation,
00:45:34.540 from us?
00:45:37.840 Us?
00:45:39.580 Who the hell is us?
00:45:41.780 He's talking to the public
00:45:43.540 and the public
00:45:45.080 he has just referred to
00:45:46.220 as you.
00:45:48.860 But when he says us,
00:45:51.080 that's a subset
00:45:52.200 of the public
00:45:52.920 that includes him.
00:45:55.620 Does that include
00:45:56.980 Democrats?
00:45:58.880 Or does it include
00:46:00.020 politicians?
00:46:01.300 I think it at least
00:46:02.600 includes politicians.
00:46:04.220 We'll give him
00:46:04.920 the benefit of the doubt
00:46:05.900 that he was not,
00:46:07.380 he was not limiting
00:46:08.740 that to Democrats
00:46:09.680 when he says us.
00:46:11.320 But at least politicians.
00:46:14.220 Being able to be
00:46:15.460 in a position
00:46:16.060 where you can
00:46:16.780 manipulate the machines.
00:46:19.020 So in 2007,
00:46:20.700 he knew
00:46:21.280 that these were
00:46:22.340 at great risk
00:46:23.480 to be manipulated
00:46:25.140 by
00:46:25.740 politicians
00:46:27.840 and thought
00:46:29.740 it was
00:46:29.960 a tremendous risk.
00:46:32.000 Nothing happened,
00:46:33.780 apparently,
00:46:34.300 so his warning
00:46:35.420 was not heeded.
00:46:37.480 And so,
00:46:38.980 allegedly,
00:46:40.200 he used
00:46:40.780 the loophole
00:46:41.520 that people refused
00:46:42.740 to close
00:46:43.760 on his request.
00:46:45.360 He used
00:46:46.300 that loophole
00:46:47.000 to become
00:46:47.440 President
00:46:47.820 of the United States.
00:46:50.960 Now,
00:46:51.540 that's,
00:46:51.940 of course,
00:46:52.640 only under
00:46:53.360 the assumption
00:46:53.960 that there was
00:46:54.520 some fraud here.
00:46:56.020 And as you know,
00:46:57.180 we do not have
00:46:58.040 proof of such a thing.
00:47:01.360 Proof,
00:47:01.960 I say,
00:47:02.640 as opposed to evidence.
00:47:04.180 We don't have
00:47:04.980 court proof
00:47:05.600 of fraud
00:47:06.840 at a level
00:47:07.860 that would reverse
00:47:08.720 the election.
00:47:10.060 We might.
00:47:11.600 It might be
00:47:12.160 on the way,
00:47:13.180 but we do not have it
00:47:14.480 as of this speaking.
00:47:16.720 So,
00:47:17.600 this is one of the most
00:47:18.820 just jaw-dropping,
00:47:20.300 shocking things.
00:47:21.140 And I have to say,
00:47:24.640 if it were true
00:47:26.160 that Biden knew
00:47:27.980 this was a way
00:47:28.780 to rig an election,
00:47:31.260 and if it were true
00:47:32.420 that,
00:47:33.020 let's say,
00:47:33.360 his operatives
00:47:34.300 rigged it for him,
00:47:36.080 you know,
00:47:36.480 we'll give him
00:47:37.480 the benefit of a doubt
00:47:38.520 that he never gave
00:47:39.820 an order
00:47:40.340 to rig any machines.
00:47:41.700 I think that's fair.
00:47:43.060 But,
00:47:43.580 if the irony is
00:47:45.760 that he was not
00:47:46.760 heeded in his warning,
00:47:48.460 and he became
00:47:49.200 the President
00:47:49.680 of the United States
00:47:50.480 because he was not
00:47:51.800 heeded
00:47:52.200 in his direct warning,
00:47:55.420 it's kind of cool.
00:47:58.440 You know,
00:47:59.460 this is sort of like
00:48:00.620 my appreciation
00:48:01.880 for serial killers
00:48:03.080 who are also
00:48:03.980 industrious.
00:48:05.220 You can hate
00:48:06.180 the killing part,
00:48:08.160 but still,
00:48:10.220 they're very industrious,
00:48:11.760 quite creative.
00:48:12.500 And if Joe Biden
00:48:15.000 pulled this off,
00:48:16.920 you've got to give him
00:48:17.720 a little bit of credit
00:48:18.640 for using the loophole
00:48:20.460 that he warned you.
00:48:22.480 Hey,
00:48:22.840 he warned you.
00:48:24.480 Here's the funniest thing
00:48:25.740 in the news.
00:48:26.880 CNN's trying to mock
00:48:28.880 Trump about his
00:48:30.620 shower water standards.
00:48:32.780 So I guess this finally
00:48:33.640 got put into law
00:48:34.780 or whatever,
00:48:36.700 some kind of rule
00:48:37.800 that your shower head
00:48:39.640 will now,
00:48:40.900 if you wanted to,
00:48:42.680 I guess you can get one
00:48:43.620 that has more
00:48:44.660 volume of water.
00:48:46.560 But here's the funny part.
00:48:47.980 CNN reports
00:48:49.120 things that Trump
00:48:50.600 says at his rallies
00:48:51.860 without adding
00:48:55.240 the context
00:48:56.020 that when he's giving
00:48:57.360 a rally talk,
00:48:58.520 he's there for entertainment.
00:48:59.560 When he gives a tweet,
00:49:02.960 he tweets like people tweet.
00:49:05.760 That's right.
00:49:06.180 And he just does
00:49:06.800 a better job of it
00:49:07.760 than anybody else.
00:49:09.500 When he talks
00:49:10.820 to a head of state,
00:49:11.880 he talks to them
00:49:12.700 like a head of state.
00:49:14.200 And he does that
00:49:15.020 well too.
00:49:16.200 So he adjusts
00:49:17.140 his communication
00:49:17.980 and his style
00:49:18.740 for each of these
00:49:19.380 forms of communication
00:49:21.160 better than anybody's
00:49:22.140 ever done,
00:49:22.720 in my opinion.
00:49:23.840 Far better than
00:49:24.660 anybody's ever done.
00:49:25.700 If you look at
00:49:26.680 all the different realms,
00:49:28.580 you could pick
00:49:29.040 any one realm
00:49:29.960 and say somebody
00:49:30.640 does a better speech
00:49:32.600 or something.
00:49:33.500 But there's nobody
00:49:34.520 who communicates
00:49:35.600 as well across
00:49:36.980 multiple realms
00:49:38.560 of communication.
00:49:41.300 But what CNN does
00:49:42.760 is they will act
00:49:43.800 as though they're all
00:49:44.580 just one.
00:49:46.320 If you don't understand
00:49:47.420 that the things
00:49:48.120 he says at a rally
00:49:49.580 are meant for
00:49:50.640 entertainment,
00:49:52.180 and you see it
00:49:53.340 reported as if
00:49:54.220 it's a presidential
00:49:55.220 statement of fact,
00:49:56.620 it looks funny.
00:49:57.920 And that's what
00:49:59.180 I'm going to read
00:49:59.660 to you.
00:49:59.960 So these are
00:50:01.880 Trump's actual words
00:50:03.840 as reported by CNN
00:50:05.680 from, I don't know
00:50:06.600 what, rally.
00:50:08.120 Quote,
00:50:08.840 we have a situation
00:50:13.660 where we're looking
00:50:14.840 very strongly
00:50:15.620 at sinks and showers
00:50:16.920 and other elements
00:50:18.680 of bathrooms.
00:50:19.900 Now right away,
00:50:21.300 he already has me
00:50:22.380 because never before
00:50:25.300 has any president
00:50:27.460 shown a genuine concern
00:50:30.140 for your bathroom
00:50:33.120 inconveniences.
00:50:34.940 Now, if you tell me
00:50:37.020 that's not the best example
00:50:38.940 of the common touch
00:50:40.300 you've ever seen,
00:50:43.300 I will argue with you.
00:50:45.640 Nobody has ever applied,
00:50:47.900 let's say,
00:50:48.640 what we call
00:50:49.180 the common touch,
00:50:50.180 better than you're
00:50:51.900 going to hear
00:50:52.280 right now.
00:50:53.720 This is the common touch.
00:50:56.980 You can't do this
00:50:58.000 better, okay.
00:50:59.660 So other elements
00:51:00.860 of bathrooms
00:51:01.460 where you turn
00:51:02.560 the faucet on
00:51:03.500 and in areas
00:51:06.280 where there's
00:51:06.840 tremendous amounts
00:51:07.700 of water,
00:51:08.540 where the water
00:51:09.320 rushes out to sea
00:51:10.500 because you can
00:51:11.640 never handle it
00:51:12.480 and you don't
00:51:14.680 get any water.
00:51:15.400 The president said
00:51:17.200 last December
00:51:17.960 during a roundtable
00:51:19.080 with business leaders.
00:51:20.200 Oh, so it was
00:51:20.540 during a roundtable.
00:51:21.800 Then the president
00:51:22.640 went on.
00:51:24.240 You turn on the faucet
00:51:25.520 and you don't
00:51:26.260 get any water.
00:51:28.360 They take a shower
00:51:30.060 and water comes
00:51:31.200 dripping out,
00:51:32.240 just dripping out,
00:51:33.200 very quietly,
00:51:35.320 dripping out.
00:51:36.640 The president
00:51:37.080 continued,
00:51:38.340 lowering his voice
00:51:41.840 as he spoke
00:51:42.400 about the drips.
00:51:43.780 People are
00:51:44.300 flushing toilets
00:51:45.160 10 times,
00:51:46.740 15 times
00:51:47.580 as opposed to once.
00:51:49.580 Now,
00:51:50.200 I stand corrected.
00:51:51.320 He said this
00:51:51.800 in the context
00:51:52.480 of a roundtable,
00:51:53.760 but he used
00:51:55.740 his rally speech.
00:51:57.380 He just,
00:51:58.100 he did it
00:51:58.720 at the roundtable
00:51:59.480 because it was a...
00:52:01.480 Now,
00:52:05.540 the fact that
00:52:06.240 anybody could
00:52:06.960 read this
00:52:08.320 and think that
00:52:08.900 he was serious
00:52:09.600 when he says
00:52:10.120 people are
00:52:10.600 flushing their toilets
00:52:11.520 10 to 15 times,
00:52:13.760 I mean,
00:52:14.040 I give up
00:52:15.760 after six.
00:52:16.640 I don't know
00:52:17.060 about you.
00:52:17.600 I've never
00:52:18.020 flushed the toilet
00:52:18.640 10 to 15 times.
00:52:20.160 And I figure
00:52:20.900 if this is an
00:52:22.480 average number
00:52:23.180 and it's accurate,
00:52:24.520 there must be
00:52:24.940 people flushing
00:52:25.540 their toilet
00:52:26.000 25 times
00:52:26.880 to make up
00:52:27.400 for my low number.
00:52:31.420 But you have
00:52:33.740 to love
00:52:34.300 the way he
00:52:35.520 makes this visual.
00:52:37.120 So let me
00:52:37.700 read it again,
00:52:38.400 but only listen
00:52:39.160 to it
00:52:39.600 for the
00:52:41.160 extraordinary
00:52:41.820 choice
00:52:42.560 of visual
00:52:43.500 persuasion.
00:52:45.120 So first of all,
00:52:45.760 you can feel it.
00:52:47.620 You can feel this
00:52:48.800 because you can feel
00:52:49.480 the water
00:52:49.940 as he talks about.
00:52:51.100 You can feel it.
00:52:52.380 You can see it.
00:52:56.560 And those
00:52:57.760 are the two
00:52:58.080 important things.
00:52:58.960 All right,
00:52:59.160 so we have a situation
00:53:00.240 where we're talking
00:53:01.500 about the sinks
00:53:02.140 and showers
00:53:02.680 where you turn
00:53:03.740 the faucet on.
00:53:04.600 So you can already,
00:53:06.640 you know,
00:53:06.840 you're seeing the movie.
00:53:07.780 You turn the faucet on
00:53:08.780 and in areas
00:53:09.820 where there's
00:53:10.320 tremendous amounts
00:53:11.140 of water,
00:53:11.580 now you're seeing
00:53:12.000 like this rush
00:53:13.220 of water
00:53:13.760 like coming at you
00:53:14.480 where the water
00:53:15.420 rushes out to sea.
00:53:16.760 Now I'm seeing
00:53:17.420 the ocean.
00:53:18.700 I'm seeing the ocean
00:53:19.560 and I'm seeing
00:53:20.220 this pipe
00:53:20.820 with all the water
00:53:21.880 that came from my house
00:53:22.880 that I couldn't handle.
00:53:24.200 I couldn't handle
00:53:24.940 that kind of water.
00:53:26.060 I'm not meant
00:53:26.640 for that kind of water.
00:53:27.500 I can't handle that.
00:53:28.800 But all this water
00:53:29.580 is rushing through
00:53:30.340 and it rushes
00:53:31.140 out to the ocean,
00:53:32.520 the sea.
00:53:32.920 And then you turn
00:53:35.020 the faucet on
00:53:35.660 and you don't get
00:53:36.400 any water.
00:53:37.000 And now I'm seeing
00:53:37.500 the faucet
00:53:38.060 and there's like
00:53:38.540 nothing coming out.
00:53:39.920 And I'm like
00:53:40.200 and it's just
00:53:42.340 dry or sand
00:53:43.660 is coming out
00:53:44.200 and it's just
00:53:47.120 dripping out.
00:53:47.980 Very quietly
00:53:48.900 dripping out.
00:53:49.620 It's not just
00:53:50.180 dripping out.
00:53:51.740 It's dripping out
00:53:52.540 so slowly
00:53:53.240 that the drip
00:53:54.280 is quiet.
00:53:55.380 You can't even
00:53:55.900 hear the drip.
00:53:56.840 It is such
00:53:57.360 a silent drip.
00:53:58.360 Now you see
00:53:58.880 the drip, right?
00:54:00.000 You see it.
00:54:01.120 Now you hear
00:54:01.780 the drip.
00:54:02.260 You hear
00:54:03.600 the frickin' drip.
00:54:06.280 It's quiet.
00:54:08.360 It's not one of
00:54:09.220 these drip, drip, drip
00:54:10.360 things.
00:54:11.020 The president
00:54:11.440 is very clear on this.
00:54:12.740 It's not a big drip.
00:54:13.660 It's a low drip.
00:54:15.300 They're so bad.
00:54:16.800 All your water,
00:54:18.320 it's rushing out
00:54:19.080 to sea.
00:54:20.120 It's rushing out
00:54:20.860 to sea
00:54:21.200 and all you get
00:54:21.880 is drip, drip, drip.
00:54:24.560 And you're flushing
00:54:25.460 your toilet.
00:54:26.080 You're like
00:54:26.280 flushing and flushing.
00:54:28.360 And the flushing
00:54:29.260 the toilet
00:54:29.760 10 times
00:54:30.480 to 15 times
00:54:31.540 is it's like
00:54:32.980 a little movie
00:54:33.720 within a movie
00:54:34.440 because you put
00:54:35.600 yourself right
00:54:36.320 in that scene
00:54:36.940 and you're
00:54:37.320 and you're standing
00:54:38.160 in front of your
00:54:38.700 toilet and you're
00:54:39.240 like, nope.
00:54:41.840 Nope.
00:54:43.320 That's 11.
00:54:44.500 I think four or five
00:54:45.580 more times
00:54:46.100 might get it.
00:54:47.260 Nope.
00:54:48.500 Anyway,
00:54:49.960 this is some
00:54:50.780 of the best
00:54:51.440 communication
00:54:52.340 the world
00:54:54.080 has ever seen.
00:54:55.240 And when I tell you
00:54:55.940 that Trump
00:54:57.220 will be appreciated
00:54:59.000 more every year
00:55:00.520 after his term
00:55:02.140 or terms,
00:55:02.920 however many
00:55:03.360 there end up being,
00:55:04.820 I am really
00:55:05.980 serious about that.
00:55:07.440 I'm as confident
00:55:08.280 as I could be
00:55:09.320 that as the noise
00:55:11.800 and the fog clears
00:55:13.280 and you just see
00:55:14.540 the things
00:55:15.040 he pulled off,
00:55:16.980 the things he did
00:55:18.200 that other people
00:55:19.620 can't do,
00:55:20.400 won't do,
00:55:20.960 have never done,
00:55:21.700 and will never
00:55:22.420 do again.
00:55:23.460 It is truly
00:55:24.120 extraordinary.
00:55:25.140 Even if you allow
00:55:26.340 every criticism
00:55:27.800 to be true,
00:55:29.640 the things that he
00:55:30.420 did are just
00:55:31.020 simply extraordinary.
00:55:35.580 Here's big news.
00:55:37.040 I guess this was
00:55:38.020 news from June
00:55:38.800 but I didn't see it
00:55:39.600 until recently.
00:55:41.220 66 million years ago
00:55:42.840 an ancient marine
00:55:44.540 reptile
00:55:45.100 that they think
00:55:46.520 was a
00:55:47.100 mosasaur,
00:55:49.380 which is a really
00:55:50.160 big dinosaur,
00:55:51.060 I guess,
00:55:51.700 crawled down
00:55:52.800 to the water
00:55:53.280 and left a
00:55:54.080 football-sized
00:55:55.040 egg in Antarctica
00:55:56.100 which has been
00:55:57.700 discovered.
00:55:59.340 So scientists
00:56:00.140 have in their
00:56:00.880 possession
00:56:01.480 a dinosaur egg
00:56:04.000 from an extinct
00:56:06.540 giant marine
00:56:07.480 reptile.
00:56:08.980 Now,
00:56:10.040 I'm glad I
00:56:12.380 didn't find it
00:56:12.920 first because
00:56:14.020 I would have
00:56:15.540 been tempted
00:56:15.980 to make an
00:56:16.540 omelet out of it
00:56:17.400 because you
00:56:18.520 don't want to
00:56:19.040 leave it
00:56:19.660 for somebody
00:56:20.480 to clone
00:56:21.240 this egg.
00:56:21.920 I don't know
00:56:22.800 if it has
00:56:23.080 enough material
00:56:23.740 in it to
00:56:24.240 clone us
00:56:24.740 a proper
00:56:25.140 dinosaur,
00:56:25.920 but I feel
00:56:26.900 like we're
00:56:27.240 getting closer
00:56:27.840 to that
00:56:28.380 Jurassic Park
00:56:29.640 wise.
00:56:30.540 So we're
00:56:31.880 going to
00:56:32.200 maybe have
00:56:32.760 a dinosaur,
00:56:33.580 but I would
00:56:34.360 have just
00:56:34.960 sort of eaten
00:56:35.620 it as an
00:56:36.080 omelet.
00:56:36.340 I know,
00:56:37.720 you can't
00:56:38.080 really make
00:56:38.460 an omelet
00:56:38.820 out of a
00:56:39.240 fossil.
00:56:40.360 Come on,
00:56:41.140 come on.
00:56:42.360 Yeah,
00:56:42.660 I didn't see
00:56:43.740 in the story
00:56:44.220 whether they
00:56:44.680 got any
00:56:45.060 useful DNA
00:56:45.860 out of it.
00:56:46.380 That would
00:56:46.680 be the big
00:56:47.060 question,
00:56:47.440 right?
00:56:49.660 And then
00:56:50.200 lastly,
00:56:50.720 President-elect
00:56:51.400 Biden,
00:56:52.680 can we call
00:56:53.160 him that?
00:56:54.160 Let's just
00:56:54.600 call him
00:56:55.020 prospective,
00:56:57.260 maybe President
00:56:58.000 Biden,
00:56:58.980 probable
00:56:59.580 President Biden.
00:57:01.840 He picked
00:57:02.720 for his
00:57:03.340 Department of
00:57:04.240 Energy,
00:57:05.400 former
00:57:05.880 Governor
00:57:06.360 Jennifer
00:57:07.040 Granholm.
00:57:08.700 Now,
00:57:09.100 here's the
00:57:09.580 fun part
00:57:10.280 of the
00:57:10.520 story.
00:57:11.540 I've seen
00:57:12.120 Jennifer
00:57:12.560 Granholm
00:57:13.240 as a
00:57:14.720 pundit on
00:57:15.380 CNN,
00:57:16.560 I think
00:57:16.980 just CNN,
00:57:18.320 lots and
00:57:19.340 lots of
00:57:19.640 times.
00:57:21.160 I didn't
00:57:21.900 know she
00:57:22.240 was a
00:57:22.580 governor.
00:57:23.880 So I
00:57:24.440 knew she
00:57:25.220 had some
00:57:25.720 role that
00:57:26.300 made her
00:57:26.780 a capable
00:57:27.880 pundit,
00:57:28.680 but I
00:57:29.420 didn't know
00:57:29.680 she was
00:57:30.000 governor.
00:57:30.400 I only
00:57:30.720 just knew
00:57:31.280 her from
00:57:31.580 lots of
00:57:31.980 appearances
00:57:32.360 on CNN.
00:57:33.640 But here's
00:57:34.080 the funny
00:57:34.420 part.
00:57:34.700 while I
00:57:36.220 often
00:57:36.600 disagree
00:57:37.180 with people
00:57:37.900 on CNN,
00:57:38.940 I don't
00:57:39.760 often think
00:57:40.520 they're
00:57:41.000 batshit
00:57:41.480 crazy.
00:57:43.200 So for
00:57:43.540 example,
00:57:44.400 if I see
00:57:45.460 Jake Tapper
00:57:46.520 say something,
00:57:47.700 I might
00:57:48.600 disagree with
00:57:49.360 it,
00:57:50.160 but I don't
00:57:50.900 think he's
00:57:51.500 batshit
00:57:52.440 crazy.
00:57:53.700 He seems
00:57:54.640 completely
00:57:55.120 sane.
00:57:56.680 But
00:57:56.940 Jennifer
00:57:57.440 Granholm,
00:57:58.860 and I'm not
00:57:59.320 saying this
00:57:59.860 because she's
00:58:00.980 female,
00:58:01.540 I know,
00:58:01.860 you want
00:58:02.220 to jump
00:58:02.900 on that,
00:58:03.340 right?
00:58:03.900 Oh,
00:58:04.260 you said
00:58:04.580 a man's
00:58:05.060 not crazy,
00:58:05.820 but why
00:58:06.160 has the
00:58:07.060 woman got
00:58:07.520 to be
00:58:07.720 crazy?
00:58:08.100 There are
00:58:08.220 plenty of
00:58:08.560 crazy men.
00:58:09.820 Do you
00:58:10.080 need me to
00:58:10.500 list all
00:58:10.880 the crazy
00:58:11.320 men?
00:58:12.320 Will you
00:58:13.320 feel better
00:58:13.720 then if I
00:58:14.260 do that?
00:58:14.780 I'm not
00:58:15.260 going to.
00:58:16.340 But there
00:58:16.700 are crazy
00:58:17.060 people all
00:58:17.560 over the
00:58:17.800 place.
00:58:18.100 But I
00:58:18.260 remember
00:58:18.560 watching her
00:58:20.640 and thinking,
00:58:21.320 well,
00:58:21.500 she is just
00:58:22.060 batshit
00:58:22.460 crazy.
00:58:23.320 I guess
00:58:23.660 she was a
00:58:24.020 big Russia
00:58:24.540 collusion
00:58:25.140 truther,
00:58:26.460 so she
00:58:27.240 does have
00:58:27.640 a history
00:58:28.000 of being
00:58:28.320 really,
00:58:28.760 really gullible.
00:58:29.360 here's the
00:58:30.340 punchline.
00:58:31.540 She'd be
00:58:31.940 in charge
00:58:32.440 of our
00:58:32.920 nuclear
00:58:33.900 energy,
00:58:35.840 which I
00:58:36.340 think includes
00:58:37.020 nuclear weapons,
00:58:38.500 at least the
00:58:39.260 civilian aspect
00:58:40.380 or scientific
00:58:41.260 aspect of it.
00:58:43.420 I don't
00:58:44.180 know if
00:58:44.740 Joe Biden
00:58:45.240 could have
00:58:45.640 made a
00:58:45.980 worse choice
00:58:46.860 if he's
00:58:48.480 trying to
00:58:48.860 make me
00:58:49.180 feel comfortable
00:58:49.840 about that
00:58:50.500 area.
00:58:52.160 I actually
00:58:53.380 can't think
00:58:53.940 of anybody
00:58:54.540 who would
00:58:55.760 make me
00:58:56.240 feel less
00:58:57.120 confident
00:58:57.700 serious
00:59:00.880 people.
00:59:01.720 I mean,
00:59:01.940 really,
00:59:02.640 you can
00:59:03.220 name a
00:59:03.600 lot of
00:59:03.880 people,
00:59:04.340 even people
00:59:05.960 that you're
00:59:06.980 annoyed by,
00:59:08.200 who are,
00:59:08.740 let's say,
00:59:09.320 on CNN,
00:59:10.180 but they
00:59:10.840 don't look
00:59:11.220 crazy.
00:59:12.860 Don Lemon
00:59:13.340 doesn't look
00:59:13.920 crazy,
00:59:14.540 unless you
00:59:15.520 count a
00:59:15.760 little bit
00:59:16.020 of TDS.
00:59:17.620 But I
00:59:18.800 think that's
00:59:21.160 a sketchy
00:59:22.020 choice there.
00:59:24.700 Bye-bye
00:59:25.300 fracking,
00:59:26.080 maybe.
00:59:26.720 We'll see.
00:59:27.700 I think
00:59:28.280 even fracking
00:59:29.000 is going
00:59:29.420 to be
00:59:29.600 too sticky.
00:59:31.000 The problem,
00:59:32.020 like I said
00:59:32.480 before,
00:59:32.940 and it
00:59:33.260 applies to
00:59:33.760 a lot of
00:59:34.120 different
00:59:34.380 areas,
00:59:35.080 there are
00:59:35.340 a whole
00:59:35.620 bunch of
00:59:36.120 things that
00:59:36.660 Trump did
00:59:37.440 that even
00:59:38.820 if you
00:59:39.200 wanted to
00:59:39.740 reverse them,
00:59:40.440 they're really
00:59:40.900 sticky.
00:59:41.860 Take North
00:59:42.460 Korea.
00:59:43.720 What will
00:59:44.340 Joe Biden
00:59:45.000 do with
00:59:45.520 North Korea?
00:59:48.060 I don't
00:59:48.740 know if
00:59:49.040 he'll have
00:59:49.360 a meeting
00:59:49.860 with Kim
00:59:50.360 Jong-un,
00:59:51.020 but he's
00:59:51.380 probably not
00:59:51.960 going to
00:59:52.200 want to
00:59:52.580 modify the
00:59:54.040 current situation
00:59:54.940 too much.
00:59:56.260 It's sort
00:59:56.860 of sticky
00:59:57.280 the way
00:59:57.680 it is.
01:00:01.380 Adam Schiff
01:00:02.280 looks psychotic.
01:00:04.000 Well,
01:00:04.300 what would
01:00:04.660 you think
01:00:06.180 if we
01:00:06.820 found out
01:00:07.440 that the
01:00:07.960 main
01:00:08.400 Russia
01:00:08.880 collusion
01:00:09.620 advocates
01:00:11.320 all had
01:00:13.260 some
01:00:13.520 connection
01:00:13.960 with a
01:00:14.500 Chinese
01:00:14.960 spy?
01:00:16.140 Now,
01:00:16.400 I'm not
01:00:16.620 saying that's
01:00:17.080 the case.
01:00:17.580 I'm saying
01:00:17.920 it would
01:00:19.700 explain a
01:00:20.300 lot,
01:00:21.040 wouldn't it?
01:00:22.440 Because you
01:00:23.060 would assume
01:00:23.520 that China
01:00:24.020 would want
01:00:24.500 to redirect
01:00:25.480 our attention
01:00:26.240 toward Russia
01:00:27.220 and away
01:00:27.560 from them,
01:00:28.000 right?
01:00:28.580 So if
01:00:29.580 it turned
01:00:31.200 out,
01:00:31.660 and I think
01:00:32.120 I tweeted
01:00:32.540 about this
01:00:33.020 as soon as
01:00:33.440 I found
01:00:33.740 out about
01:00:34.080 the
01:00:34.240 Swalwell
01:00:34.600 thing,
01:00:35.380 I think
01:00:35.740 I tweeted
01:00:36.200 that if
01:00:38.240 Adam Schiff
01:00:38.900 doesn't have
01:00:39.840 a close
01:00:40.940 connection
01:00:41.380 to a
01:00:41.780 Chinese
01:00:42.160 spy,
01:00:43.520 I would
01:00:44.000 be surprised.
01:00:45.480 I don't
01:00:46.000 have any
01:00:46.360 information
01:00:46.860 that that's
01:00:47.380 the case,
01:00:48.180 but he
01:00:48.620 acts in a
01:00:49.320 way that
01:00:50.360 you look
01:00:51.200 at it and
01:00:51.520 you go,
01:00:51.980 what's going
01:00:52.960 on there?
01:00:53.560 Is he a
01:00:53.960 20 percenter?
01:00:56.060 If I had
01:00:56.840 to guess,
01:00:58.120 probably is.
01:00:59.900 Probably is.
01:01:01.280 So,
01:01:01.640 but there's
01:01:02.180 no way to
01:01:02.520 know.
01:01:03.200 All right,
01:01:03.540 that's all
01:01:03.820 for now,
01:01:04.300 and I will
01:01:04.620 talk to
01:01:05.000 you.
01:01:06.200 Tomorrow.
01:01:11.620 All right,
01:01:12.540 Periscope is
01:01:13.240 off,
01:01:14.300 you
01:01:14.580 YouTubers.
01:01:15.620 Still here
01:01:16.160 for now.
01:01:19.440 Yeah.
01:01:22.880 All right,
01:01:23.720 do you have
01:01:23.940 any questions
01:01:24.400 for me?
01:01:27.200 Am I
01:01:27.980 happier today?
01:01:29.340 Well,
01:01:29.860 I'm really
01:01:30.600 stoned right
01:01:31.220 now,
01:01:31.600 so that
01:01:33.100 really worked.
01:01:34.860 People
01:01:35.460 usually think
01:01:36.080 I'm high
01:01:36.860 when I
01:01:37.280 do my
01:01:37.880 morning
01:01:38.160 periscopes,
01:01:39.040 but I
01:01:39.720 assure you
01:01:40.300 that,
01:01:40.880 except for
01:01:41.180 today,
01:01:42.520 that has
01:01:43.280 not been
01:01:43.620 the case.
01:01:47.460 All right,
01:01:49.080 thank you.
01:01:49.900 That is all
01:01:50.540 for now.
01:01:51.000 Oh,
01:01:51.140 yes,
01:01:51.500 and season
01:01:52.640 five of
01:01:53.120 The Expanse,
01:01:53.880 thanks for
01:01:54.460 reminding me.
01:01:55.420 Season
01:01:55.640 five of
01:01:56.140 The Expanse
01:01:56.860 is on
01:01:57.840 tonight,
01:01:58.500 and I
01:01:58.900 will be
01:01:59.220 watching
01:01:59.480 that.
01:02:03.260 Thoughts
01:02:03.700 on dueling
01:02:04.180 electors?
01:02:05.520 Well,
01:02:06.180 you know,
01:02:06.540 I guess
01:02:06.900 technically
01:02:07.560 the,
01:02:09.520 you know,
01:02:10.480 Trump still
01:02:11.040 has some
01:02:11.840 whiff of
01:02:12.320 a chance,
01:02:13.300 but I
01:02:13.500 don't think
01:02:13.960 having a,
01:02:15.060 I don't
01:02:16.300 think having
01:02:16.740 a path
01:02:17.520 to victory
01:02:19.740 makes any
01:02:20.280 difference at
01:02:20.840 this point,
01:02:21.540 because I
01:02:21.920 think the
01:02:22.280 system has
01:02:22.940 decided that
01:02:23.680 it doesn't
01:02:24.140 matter if he
01:02:24.620 has a path
01:02:25.060 or not.
01:02:26.000 Doesn't
01:02:26.340 matter if
01:02:26.680 the election
01:02:27.040 was thrown,
01:02:28.580 doesn't matter
01:02:29.120 how much
01:02:29.820 fraud they
01:02:30.740 find at
01:02:31.220 this point,
01:02:31.680 I think
01:02:31.960 it's just
01:02:32.900 too late.
01:02:34.700 All right,
01:02:35.280 that's all
01:02:36.900 for now,
01:02:37.900 and I'll
01:02:38.320 talk to
01:02:38.700 you later.
