Real Coffee with Scott Adams - Episode 1318 Scott Adams： China Humiliates the Biden Team, Harris Self-Immolates on GMA, Dems Eat Their Own

00:00:00.000 La-da-dum-bum-bum-bum-bum-bum-bum.

00:00:03.960 Hey, everybody. Come on in.

00:00:06.860 It's time for Coffee with Scott Adams.

00:00:09.200 Now, I don't know how the weather is where you are,

00:00:12.600 but it's raining in my kitchen.

00:00:15.800 Yeah, I wish it were only raining outdoors,

00:00:20.020 but it's also raining in my kitchen,

00:00:22.480 so that's what I woke up to today.

00:00:24.400 I guess there's a leak.

00:00:26.140 I'm going to have to take care of that.

00:00:27.340 But it's not the first kitchen I've been in that was raining.

00:00:32.040 For some reason, all my kitchens end up leaking.

00:00:36.520 How would you like to enjoy this moment

00:00:39.560 better than all the other moments of the day?

00:00:42.620 Yeah, you would.

00:00:43.660 And all you need is a cup or a mug or a glass,

00:00:45.500 a tank or a chalice, a stein, a canteen, a jug, a flask,

00:00:47.640 a vessel of any kind,

00:00:48.880 and fill it with your favorite liquid.

00:00:52.100 I like coffee.

00:00:54.200 And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure

00:00:56.360 and the dopamines of the day

00:00:57.400 and the thing that makes everything better

00:00:59.100 except my kitchen.

00:01:01.360 It's called the simultaneous sip,

00:01:02.720 and it happens now.

00:01:04.320 Go.

00:01:10.740 Yeah, that is better.

00:01:12.240 So, there's a mysterious new startup

00:01:17.020 or technology or service.

00:01:20.900 It's an interesting story.

00:01:23.640 It's called BitClout.

00:01:26.220 B-I-T-C-L-O-U-T.

00:01:29.560 BitClout.

00:01:30.980 And it looks like it's in beta,

00:01:33.060 so I don't know that you can get onto the site

00:01:35.560 without a password yet.

00:01:36.600 But what they've done is

00:01:38.220 they've developed a market

00:01:40.680 for influencers.

00:01:44.880 So, people like me,

00:01:46.460 I'm actually one of the markets on there,

00:01:49.260 you can buy an NFT,

00:01:51.100 which is a digital collectible,

00:01:53.560 which has no intrinsic value,

00:01:55.480 just people decide to buy them and sell them,

00:01:57.980 and sometimes the price goes up.

00:01:59.860 So, you can buy and sell these digital units,

00:02:04.300 and they're sort of registered

00:02:06.920 on the blockchain, if you will,

00:02:08.760 so that you can tell who has an original

00:02:10.960 and who might have a copy.

00:02:13.060 And the copies would not have value,

00:02:14.800 but the originals would.

00:02:16.540 So, I'm one of the influencers

00:02:19.640 who are on the early version of it.

00:02:22.940 So, I'm number 36 on their list.

00:02:25.420 Of course, it's not a complete list.

00:02:27.520 But it looks like my value,

00:02:33.360 let's see,

00:02:34.600 this is what I've been,

00:02:35.520 my market cap,

00:02:37.120 which is the value of all the crypto tokens

00:02:41.240 or coins, if you will,

00:02:42.800 that people have bought

00:02:44.340 that are represented by me.

00:02:47.440 So, it's up to about a million dollars

00:02:49.020 or approaching a million dollars.

00:02:50.860 So, here's what's interesting about it.

00:02:53.340 The technology,

00:02:54.920 it looks like it's going to be

00:02:56.240 some kind of a substitute

00:02:57.460 for social media platforms.

00:03:00.080 It looks like you can post things.

00:03:02.800 And people like me can go

00:03:04.260 and claim our account, basically.

00:03:08.460 And I think I would give some monetary benefit

00:03:11.560 from just claiming the account.

00:03:13.860 And from there, I could just post.

00:03:15.660 And here's the amazing part.

00:03:18.840 Apparently, because it's an open source,

00:03:22.100 and there's no one company

00:03:23.840 that owns any of the hardware or software,

00:03:26.760 or even the development of it.

00:03:29.000 There's no company.

00:03:31.540 Let me say that again.

00:03:32.700 Again, there's a social media platform

00:03:35.440 that's just springing up

00:03:37.420 that doesn't have a company

00:03:40.080 because the technology is so distributed.

00:03:43.960 You could run a server,

00:03:45.620 and you'd be part of this larger network,

00:03:48.000 but there's no company.

00:03:49.980 Now, there is some kind of entity

00:03:51.380 that's doing something,

00:03:53.960 but the technology is not part of a company.

00:03:57.540 So, I guess I should say it that way.

00:03:59.080 There is a company,

00:03:59.900 but the technology is not part of it.

00:04:02.900 Isn't that interesting?

00:04:04.560 Yeah.

00:04:05.460 And here's the payoff.

00:04:10.040 As I understand it,

00:04:11.360 I was just looking at the white paper,

00:04:12.980 so there's a lot I don't quite understand yet.

00:04:15.460 But it looks like one of the things

00:04:16.900 that they're going to offer

00:04:17.880 is the ability for anybody

00:04:19.800 to write an algorithm

00:04:21.400 that works on their content.

00:04:24.420 So, for example,

00:04:25.260 if you don't want to live by, say,

00:04:27.660 the Twitter algorithm

00:04:29.520 or the YouTube algorithm,

00:04:32.060 you could just go over

00:04:33.660 to this new social network

00:04:36.100 and pick the algorithm you want

00:04:38.420 from anybody who writes one.

00:04:40.660 Say, oh, I like the algorithm

00:04:42.980 that Scott wrote.

00:04:44.720 I'll just use that one from now on.

00:04:47.120 So, I don't know

00:04:49.040 where this is headed yet,

00:04:52.140 but it is a social media platform killer.

00:04:58.220 And, you know,

00:04:59.820 lots of people have tried

00:05:00.680 to make alternate Twitters

00:05:02.160 and alternate YouTubes

00:05:04.460 and stuff like that,

00:05:05.240 and they've had limited success.

00:05:07.620 But nobody's ever put

00:05:10.480 all the parts together like this.

00:05:12.480 So, whoever is behind this,

00:05:16.660 they figured out

00:05:18.120 how to put all the parts together.

00:05:20.060 So, just keep an eye on this.

00:05:22.000 It's called BitClout.

00:05:24.640 One word.

00:05:25.500 B-I-T-C-L-O-U-T.

00:05:27.460 All right.

00:05:29.800 Putin continues to be

00:05:31.320 one of the funniest trolls

00:05:32.820 in the world.

00:05:34.640 So, he was doing an interview

00:05:36.260 the other day,

00:05:37.100 and he just said

00:05:38.020 he had this idea

00:05:38.800 that Putin himself

00:05:41.360 and Biden

00:05:42.160 should have a public conversation

00:05:45.120 slash debate

00:05:46.580 live

00:05:48.860 and televised.

00:05:52.680 Now,

00:05:53.860 Putin,

00:05:56.220 you fucker.

00:05:59.800 That was so smart.

00:06:02.120 Because

00:06:02.520 what does everybody

00:06:04.240 in the United States

00:06:05.160 say to themselves

00:06:06.000 as soon as they hear that

00:06:07.360 that

00:06:08.340 Putin and Biden

00:06:10.060 potentially could be

00:06:11.420 having a conversation

00:06:12.380 in real time

00:06:13.740 in front of the world?

00:06:15.420 What's the first thing

00:06:16.500 you think of?

00:06:18.120 No.

00:06:19.320 No.

00:06:22.060 We'll look like fools.

00:06:24.860 Because

00:06:25.380 Putin

00:06:26.340 apparently still

00:06:27.260 has his faculties.

00:06:29.440 You might not like him.

00:06:31.840 Apparently,

00:06:32.380 he's done some bad things.

00:06:34.240 But

00:06:35.040 he still has

00:06:35.840 all of his faculties.

00:06:37.540 And this challenge

00:06:38.400 sort of proves it,

00:06:39.880 right?

00:06:40.340 Because it was such

00:06:41.400 a clever troll

00:06:43.480 thing

00:06:44.000 to say,

00:06:44.940 oh, yeah,

00:06:45.700 why don't you

00:06:46.480 take your national leader

00:06:47.700 and I,

00:06:49.900 representing my country,

00:06:51.660 will talk in public.

00:06:53.980 Oh,

00:06:54.820 you don't have

00:06:55.800 a leader

00:06:56.240 who can talk

00:06:56.980 in public.

00:06:58.380 Oh,

00:06:59.660 oh,

00:07:00.320 that's too bad.

00:07:01.160 But we do.

00:07:02.720 Over in Russia,

00:07:03.840 we have a leader

00:07:04.780 who can actually

00:07:05.360 go on TV

00:07:06.120 and talk in public

00:07:07.920 without even preparing.

00:07:10.740 How about that?

00:07:12.780 So,

00:07:13.660 I'm going to give the,

00:07:15.720 I'm going to give

00:07:16.640 an A plus

00:07:17.180 to Putin

00:07:17.680 for trolling.

00:07:18.560 That was really funny.

00:07:19.920 It was cruel,

00:07:21.320 but it's really

00:07:22.460 good persuasion.

00:07:23.260 Every now and then

00:07:26.040 you see these little

00:07:26.840 signs

00:07:28.000 that tell you

00:07:29.300 how Putin

00:07:29.920 rose to power.

00:07:32.260 He just has

00:07:33.400 a pretty good game.

00:07:35.160 You know,

00:07:35.500 I'm not his fan.

00:07:37.880 He should be condemned

00:07:39.080 totally.

00:07:40.500 But he does have

00:07:41.180 a lot of game.

00:07:42.680 In my ongoing series

00:07:44.300 of the left

00:07:45.120 continuing to eat

00:07:46.260 themselves

00:07:46.800 by having to live

00:07:48.860 by their own rules,

00:07:51.040 it seems like

00:07:51.900 every day

00:07:52.320 there's a new example

00:07:53.200 of it.

00:07:53.640 Here are a few.

00:07:55.180 So,

00:07:55.620 there's a woman

00:07:56.740 named Alexi

00:07:58.000 McCamond.

00:08:00.480 And I believe,

00:08:01.620 this is,

00:08:02.180 I think this is

00:08:02.820 important to the story,

00:08:04.460 although it's a little

00:08:05.580 confusing when you

00:08:06.500 look at her picture.

00:08:07.880 But she identifies

00:08:09.120 as black,

00:08:09.740 I think.

00:08:10.680 So,

00:08:10.980 fact check me on that.

00:08:11.960 I don't want to be

00:08:12.560 wrong about that.

00:08:13.960 But I believe

00:08:14.700 she identifies

00:08:15.280 as black.

00:08:17.000 And

00:08:17.400 so she

00:08:20.260 got a job

00:08:21.760 at Condé

00:08:22.220 Nast,

00:08:22.900 and it would be

00:08:23.640 pretty high up

00:08:24.740 position.

00:08:26.060 And she had to

00:08:27.440 quit because of

00:08:28.360 some anti-Asian

00:08:30.600 and anti-gay

00:08:31.660 tweets in her

00:08:32.620 past.

00:08:34.820 And I'm

00:08:35.880 thinking,

00:08:36.480 it's coming

00:08:37.740 back to bite

00:08:38.500 you in the ass.

00:08:40.900 So,

00:08:41.640 here she is,

00:08:42.440 she's,

00:08:43.180 I believe,

00:08:44.360 again,

00:08:44.780 fact check me,

00:08:45.420 but I believe she

00:08:46.040 identifies as

00:08:47.900 African-American.

00:08:49.400 And

00:08:49.760 here she is

00:08:52.020 discriminating against

00:08:52.960 Asians and gays,

00:08:54.000 allegedly,

00:08:54.860 in these tweets.

00:08:55.920 So she had to,

00:08:57.060 so she lost her

00:08:57.980 job.

00:08:59.400 So,

00:09:00.180 when the left

00:09:00.980 follows their own

00:09:02.040 rules,

00:09:03.840 they lose their

00:09:04.820 job.

00:09:05.880 Here's a tweet

00:09:07.100 about Joss

00:09:07.820 Whedon,

00:09:08.960 director,

00:09:09.920 or,

00:09:10.260 I guess,

00:09:11.800 director,

00:09:12.380 right,

00:09:12.560 of the new

00:09:13.740 Justice League.

00:09:15.280 And somebody

00:09:15.860 pointed out that

00:09:16.700 the parts that

00:09:17.860 he reduced or

00:09:18.720 cut by the time

00:09:19.780 he got to the

00:09:20.340 final movie,

00:09:21.920 you know,

00:09:23.220 five names were

00:09:23.980 listed and

00:09:24.760 every one of

00:09:25.980 them a person

00:09:27.420 of color.

00:09:28.900 That's right.

00:09:30.340 So Joss Whedon,

00:09:31.320 also associated

00:09:32.240 with the left,

00:09:33.760 he edits his

00:09:35.180 movie,

00:09:35.580 but he only gets

00:09:36.560 rid of the people

00:09:37.200 of color and

00:09:38.580 reduces their

00:09:39.260 roles.

00:09:40.020 Is that a

00:09:40.880 coincidence?

00:09:42.560 Well,

00:09:43.940 probably,

00:09:45.380 yes.

00:09:46.580 It's probably

00:09:47.420 exactly a

00:09:48.240 coincidence.

00:09:49.640 And the

00:09:49.960 coincidence,

00:09:50.560 I'm just

00:09:50.920 guessing,

00:09:52.100 but if I had

00:09:52.820 to guess,

00:09:54.140 that because

00:09:55.480 he's using

00:09:56.180 characters that

00:09:57.140 were developed,

00:09:58.040 you know,

00:09:58.340 50 years ago

00:09:59.140 or whatever,

00:09:59.940 they were mostly

00:10:00.580 white superheroes.

00:10:02.540 I think the

00:10:03.240 people of color

00:10:03.960 were people who

00:10:04.620 were sort of

00:10:05.000 added on to

00:10:06.020 add some

00:10:06.500 balance and

00:10:07.080 diversity.

00:10:08.140 But when he

00:10:08.940 had to actually

00:10:09.860 edit the movie

00:10:10.620 down to watch

00:10:11.360 it,

00:10:11.600 who are you

00:10:12.740 going to get

00:10:13.040 rid of?

00:10:14.400 You're not

00:10:15.060 going to cut

00:10:15.440 the lines of

00:10:16.180 the main

00:10:17.040 players or

00:10:17.880 you wouldn't

00:10:18.280 have your

00:10:18.620 continuity,

00:10:19.420 but you can

00:10:20.040 almost always

00:10:20.740 edit the

00:10:22.040 ancillary

00:10:23.580 players.

00:10:25.280 So probably

00:10:26.120 it had nothing

00:10:27.000 to do with

00:10:27.500 anything about

00:10:28.360 except how to

00:10:29.520 edit it and

00:10:30.200 keep continuity,

00:10:31.480 but I don't

00:10:33.220 make the

00:10:33.600 rules.

00:10:34.980 I don't make

00:10:35.500 the rules.

00:10:36.880 Apparently the

00:10:37.520 rules say if

00:10:38.240 you only cut the

00:10:39.340 roles of people

00:10:40.800 of color,

00:10:41.820 you are a

00:10:42.760 racist.

00:10:43.860 So there's

00:10:44.560 two stories

00:10:45.280 just from

00:10:45.780 today.

00:10:47.340 You want to

00:10:47.880 hear another

00:10:48.220 one?

00:10:48.920 Here's one I'm

00:10:49.680 going to make

00:10:50.080 up.

00:10:51.320 So I told you

00:10:52.980 before that the

00:10:53.660 best way to

00:10:55.020 defeat bad

00:10:56.860 thinking is to

00:10:58.780 embrace it.

00:11:00.480 It's one of

00:11:01.320 the best

00:11:01.880 techniques for

00:11:04.180 persuasion.

00:11:05.320 If somebody is

00:11:06.220 asking you to

00:11:06.900 do something

00:11:07.540 that's just

00:11:08.400 sort of

00:11:09.000 batshit crazy

00:11:10.400 and you

00:11:11.480 can't talk

00:11:12.020 a man of

00:11:12.440 it with

00:11:12.800 logic,

00:11:13.860 you don't

00:11:14.380 have any

00:11:14.720 power to

00:11:15.280 change it,

00:11:16.420 they won't

00:11:17.180 listen to

00:11:17.620 reason,

00:11:19.200 what do

00:11:19.480 you do?

00:11:21.060 Well,

00:11:21.640 one way to

00:11:22.440 do it is to

00:11:23.340 follow the

00:11:24.120 rules and

00:11:25.320 actually embrace

00:11:26.320 their batshit

00:11:27.040 idea and

00:11:28.360 then act as

00:11:29.340 though you're

00:11:29.840 fully embracing

00:11:31.140 it.

00:11:32.080 Now, if you

00:11:32.820 act like you're

00:11:33.680 joking, it

00:11:35.440 doesn't work.

00:11:36.660 If you act

00:11:37.220 like you're

00:11:37.640 doing it to

00:11:38.780 be a jerk, it

00:11:40.460 doesn't work.

00:11:41.520 The secret is to

00:11:42.660 play it straight.

00:11:44.420 Play it straight

00:11:45.480 right down the

00:11:46.300 line, right?

00:11:48.320 And watch me do

00:11:50.320 it right now.

00:11:50.960 I will now model

00:11:51.880 this behavior.

00:11:54.720 So, apparently

00:11:55.600 there are 14,000

00:11:57.340 migrant children

00:11:58.280 in federal

00:11:59.040 custody right

00:11:59.860 now.

00:12:01.180 That's 14,000

00:12:02.940 kids who

00:12:05.000 presumably with

00:12:05.960 their parents

00:12:06.580 decided to

00:12:08.600 come to

00:12:09.540 a racist

00:12:10.260 country.

00:12:12.220 Because if

00:12:13.120 you've listened

00:12:13.580 to Black Lives

00:12:14.580 Matter and

00:12:15.220 the Democrats,

00:12:16.840 they will tell

00:12:17.640 you that this

00:12:18.200 is one

00:12:19.120 super racist

00:12:19.940 country.

00:12:21.700 And I

00:12:23.540 believe the

00:12:24.020 rule is that

00:12:25.440 if you

00:12:25.880 willingly and

00:12:26.880 voluntarily

00:12:27.440 decide to

00:12:29.400 go associate

00:12:30.220 with a racist

00:12:31.640 entity,

00:12:32.680 you are a

00:12:34.240 racist.

00:12:35.000 Am I

00:12:37.120 wrong?

00:12:38.680 In fact,

00:12:39.260 check me on

00:12:39.760 that.

00:12:40.740 Is it wrong

00:12:41.360 to say that,

00:12:42.920 I mean,

00:12:43.280 that's the

00:12:44.200 statement about

00:12:44.820 Trump supporters,

00:12:45.740 right?

00:12:46.140 It doesn't

00:12:46.920 matter if

00:12:47.380 you're technically

00:12:48.160 not a racist

00:12:49.120 yourself.

00:12:50.300 If you've

00:12:51.020 decided to

00:12:51.800 side with

00:12:52.620 somebody who

00:12:53.920 we have

00:12:54.380 labeled a

00:12:55.040 racist,

00:12:55.820 you're a

00:12:56.640 racist by

00:12:57.360 association.

00:12:58.960 And you

00:12:59.360 can't say that

00:13:00.060 you're not

00:13:00.460 contributing to

00:13:01.240 that racist

00:13:01.760 system because

00:13:03.020 because you

00:13:03.420 are.

00:13:04.440 You are.

00:13:06.520 Then you've

00:13:07.220 got 14,000

00:13:08.120 kids who

00:13:09.680 now are

00:13:10.660 trying very

00:13:11.520 hard to

00:13:11.960 associate with

00:13:12.840 this big

00:13:13.360 racist entity

00:13:14.440 called the

00:13:14.920 United States.

00:13:16.360 And I'm

00:13:18.440 sorry, but

00:13:19.060 that does

00:13:20.500 make them

00:13:20.940 all racists.

00:13:22.780 It makes

00:13:23.640 them all

00:13:24.040 racists.

00:13:25.320 So if you

00:13:26.700 want to let

00:13:27.300 14,000 racists

00:13:29.380 into the

00:13:29.820 country,

00:13:30.820 well, go

00:13:31.500 ahead.

00:13:33.320 Looks like

00:13:33.980 that's going

00:13:34.340 to happen.

00:13:35.680 Now, see

00:13:36.480 what I'm

00:13:36.760 doing?

00:13:37.240 Now, in

00:13:37.600 this case,

00:13:37.980 you can

00:13:38.220 tell that

00:13:38.660 I'm just

00:13:39.300 joking.

00:13:40.000 But the

00:13:40.340 point is,

00:13:40.920 every time

00:13:41.360 you make

00:13:41.840 people live

00:13:43.000 by their

00:13:43.440 own rules,

00:13:44.680 those rules

00:13:45.320 get a lot

00:13:45.800 less popular.

00:13:47.460 These rules

00:13:48.240 exist as a

00:13:49.720 weapon against

00:13:50.380 the other

00:13:50.740 side.

00:13:51.380 They can't

00:13:51.800 be, you

00:13:52.700 know, if

00:13:53.020 you try to

00:13:53.420 employ them

00:13:53.940 against both

00:13:54.460 sides, they

00:13:55.860 become very

00:13:56.440 unpalatable.

00:13:57.160 And I

00:14:01.040 think I

00:14:01.340 told you

00:14:01.660 my best

00:14:02.080 story about

00:14:02.600 this.

00:14:02.960 I'll just

00:14:03.280 do it

00:14:03.740 quickly.

00:14:04.280 Years ago,

00:14:04.960 when smoking

00:14:05.440 was legal

00:14:06.080 in offices,

00:14:07.940 I complained

00:14:09.860 and management

00:14:11.120 wouldn't do

00:14:11.600 anything because

00:14:12.360 smoking was

00:14:12.980 legal.

00:14:13.780 So my

00:14:14.580 co-worker was

00:14:15.240 a chain

00:14:15.560 smoker.

00:14:16.020 There was

00:14:16.100 nothing I

00:14:16.480 could do.

00:14:17.520 So one

00:14:19.060 day they

00:14:19.420 sent around

00:14:19.800 a form

00:14:20.220 that says,

00:14:20.780 do you

00:14:20.980 recognize

00:14:21.640 what they

00:14:25.180 call it,

00:14:25.480 dangerous

00:14:26.040 toxins and

00:14:27.780 stuff in

00:14:28.160 the workplace,

00:14:28.780 dangerous

00:14:29.060 situations.

00:14:30.040 And you

00:14:30.200 had to

00:14:30.440 sign off

00:14:30.880 on a

00:14:31.160 number of

00:14:31.520 specific

00:14:32.020 dangers to

00:14:32.840 say that

00:14:33.180 you know

00:14:33.480 these are

00:14:33.840 dangerous

00:14:34.200 things and

00:14:35.360 that you'll

00:14:35.640 do what

00:14:36.000 you need

00:14:36.340 to do to

00:14:37.000 avoid the

00:14:37.960 danger.

00:14:38.940 And one

00:14:39.460 of them

00:14:39.680 was second

00:14:40.080 hand smoke

00:14:40.780 listed right

00:14:42.380 on the

00:14:42.680 corporate

00:14:43.020 document that

00:14:44.880 that was

00:14:45.480 considered a

00:14:46.340 dangerous

00:14:46.820 chemical.

00:14:48.380 And so I

00:14:48.760 used the

00:14:49.180 company's own

00:14:50.820 standard,

00:14:51.640 and I

00:14:52.660 said I

00:14:52.980 won't be

00:14:53.280 coming back

00:14:53.740 to work

00:14:54.220 because I'm

00:14:56.120 declaring this

00:14:56.720 a dangerous

00:14:57.220 workplace because

00:14:58.120 of the

00:14:58.320 second hand

00:14:58.760 smoke,

00:14:59.520 using the

00:15:00.080 company's

00:15:00.520 rules.

00:15:00.940 I wasn't

00:15:01.240 making anything

00:15:01.780 up.

00:15:02.040 I was just

00:15:02.320 using the

00:15:02.760 company's

00:15:03.200 own rules.

00:15:04.740 And then I

00:15:05.060 just started

00:15:05.480 staying home.

00:15:06.780 And I would

00:15:07.100 call in once

00:15:07.700 in a day to

00:15:08.180 find out if

00:15:08.860 the toxic

00:15:10.320 hazard had

00:15:11.120 been remediated.

00:15:13.000 And the

00:15:13.600 first day my

00:15:14.600 boss thought I

00:15:15.240 was joking.

00:15:16.800 And so I

00:15:17.300 played it

00:15:17.760 completely

00:15:18.420 straight.

00:15:19.780 I said,

00:15:20.180 no, I

00:15:20.580 understand

00:15:21.500 from the

00:15:21.900 company,

00:15:22.360 you made

00:15:22.760 me sign

00:15:23.220 that I

00:15:23.580 understood

00:15:24.120 it.

00:15:24.880 I literally

00:15:25.440 was asked

00:15:25.940 to sign

00:15:26.380 that I

00:15:26.720 understood

00:15:27.060 it.

00:15:27.800 The

00:15:27.940 second hand

00:15:28.420 smoke could

00:15:29.000 kill me.

00:15:30.620 And also I've

00:15:31.580 been asked to

00:15:32.860 make sure that I

00:15:33.620 remove myself

00:15:34.840 from any

00:15:35.300 unsafe

00:15:35.800 environments.

00:15:36.300 comments.

00:15:37.320 So I'm

00:15:37.600 doing right

00:15:38.060 now exactly

00:15:39.480 the company's

00:15:41.720 required

00:15:42.580 steps.

00:15:44.920 Took about

00:15:45.620 three days and

00:15:46.540 they changed

00:15:47.000 the policy,

00:15:48.620 relocated me to

00:15:51.640 a non-smoking

00:15:52.360 place, etc.

00:15:54.080 Now, the

00:15:54.840 key to this

00:15:55.520 was that I

00:15:56.840 never was an

00:15:57.720 asshole.

00:15:59.300 I never

00:16:00.100 rubbed it in.

00:16:00.820 I never

00:16:02.120 laughed about

00:16:03.000 it.

00:16:03.540 I never

00:16:03.980 mocked it.

00:16:05.320 I never

00:16:05.700 even called

00:16:06.980 the rules

00:16:07.840 ridiculous.

00:16:09.500 I simply

00:16:10.480 addressed them

00:16:11.440 exactly with

00:16:12.960 the policy as

00:16:13.840 it had been

00:16:14.260 presented to

00:16:14.900 me.

00:16:15.960 You want to

00:16:16.220 hear another

00:16:16.580 example?

00:16:17.280 When I was a

00:16:18.220 bank teller,

00:16:19.580 we would have

00:16:20.560 all these rules

00:16:21.300 about what we

00:16:22.000 could or could

00:16:22.560 not do, and

00:16:23.220 if you violated

00:16:23.860 any of those

00:16:24.280 rules, you

00:16:24.800 could get

00:16:25.340 fired or get

00:16:26.560 a penalty of

00:16:27.100 some sort.

00:16:28.260 And we

00:16:29.700 would often

00:16:30.200 bend those

00:16:30.820 rules because

00:16:31.800 a lot of our

00:16:32.360 customers were

00:16:33.120 regulars.

00:16:34.160 So it's just

00:16:34.600 somebody you

00:16:35.000 see every day

00:16:35.720 and you knew

00:16:37.200 them and maybe

00:16:37.920 you wouldn't

00:16:38.220 ask for their

00:16:38.900 driver's license

00:16:40.080 because you

00:16:40.900 know them.

00:16:41.680 Literally

00:16:42.100 somebody you've

00:16:42.780 checked their

00:16:43.140 driver's license

00:16:43.800 ten times.

00:16:45.540 And the

00:16:45.880 supervisor comes

00:16:46.900 over and I

00:16:47.600 guess I did

00:16:48.340 something wrong

00:16:48.900 one day and

00:16:49.500 said, you've

00:16:50.660 got to follow

00:16:51.160 all these rules

00:16:52.580 have to be

00:16:53.220 followed.

00:16:54.100 There can be

00:16:54.640 no bending of

00:16:55.500 the rules when

00:16:56.140 it comes to

00:16:56.820 banking.

00:16:58.140 You know,

00:16:58.320 banking, you

00:16:59.480 got to follow

00:17:00.200 the rules.

00:17:01.240 So I said, I

00:17:02.940 would be happy

00:17:03.480 to do that.

00:17:04.900 And my line

00:17:06.140 went out the

00:17:06.900 door and

00:17:07.560 around the

00:17:07.980 block.

00:17:08.920 Because if you

00:17:09.760 followed the

00:17:10.320 rules, you

00:17:11.440 couldn't serve

00:17:12.520 even one

00:17:14.020 customer.

00:17:15.180 Because everybody

00:17:15.800 had some weird

00:17:16.500 exception that

00:17:17.180 required a

00:17:17.800 supervisor if you

00:17:19.080 did it right.

00:17:20.500 But before, we

00:17:21.580 were like, ah,

00:17:22.160 it's such a

00:17:22.620 small thing,

00:17:23.740 just, you

00:17:24.620 know, forget

00:17:24.960 it.

00:17:25.180 So, and

00:17:27.500 of course, it

00:17:28.200 took about

00:17:29.260 half a day

00:17:30.000 for the

00:17:31.080 supervisor to

00:17:31.860 say, okay,

00:17:32.360 okay, forget

00:17:33.300 the rules.

00:17:34.540 Because if you

00:17:35.380 follow the

00:17:35.920 rules, we

00:17:36.480 can't even

00:17:37.520 do business.

00:17:39.080 So following

00:17:39.920 the rules is

00:17:41.380 very effective

00:17:42.640 if the rules

00:17:43.800 are ridiculous.

00:17:47.040 So I guess

00:17:47.800 the Biden

00:17:48.400 White House

00:17:49.080 is firing

00:17:49.780 staffers who

00:17:51.220 have ever

00:17:51.820 admitted smoking

00:17:52.860 weed.

00:17:56.440 What?

00:17:58.620 What?

00:18:00.440 Now, this

00:18:01.360 is not even

00:18:01.920 people who

00:18:02.420 are currently

00:18:03.140 smoking weed.

00:18:04.960 This is just

00:18:05.820 people who

00:18:06.360 have some

00:18:07.240 time in their

00:18:07.860 past admitted

00:18:09.220 to smoking

00:18:09.820 weed, which

00:18:11.020 by the way,

00:18:12.000 depending on

00:18:12.520 the state they

00:18:13.040 were doing it

00:18:13.560 and when they

00:18:13.920 did it, was

00:18:14.780 perfectly legal.

00:18:17.840 Now, how

00:18:19.480 does that play

00:18:20.180 do with

00:18:20.420 Democrats?

00:18:22.500 Now, I

00:18:22.980 suppose if

00:18:23.460 they say,

00:18:23.980 well, it

00:18:24.220 doesn't affect

00:18:24.700 me, it's

00:18:25.180 just this

00:18:25.820 government

00:18:26.140 thing, but

00:18:27.780 does it

00:18:28.920 look so

00:18:29.320 good, does

00:18:29.860 it?

00:18:31.120 Oh, I

00:18:31.600 see you're

00:18:32.160 prompting me

00:18:32.860 in the

00:18:33.240 comments here.

00:18:35.840 Don't get

00:18:36.300 ahead of me.

00:18:37.700 Yeah, Kamala

00:18:38.280 Harris has

00:18:39.100 famously admitted

00:18:40.300 that she

00:18:40.740 once, or I

00:18:42.420 don't know how

00:18:42.700 many times, but

00:18:43.440 she has smoked

00:18:44.040 marijuana.

00:18:44.460 Now, suppose

00:18:47.760 we apply the

00:18:50.880 law just

00:18:52.700 the way

00:18:53.280 Biden wants

00:18:54.580 to.

00:18:55.720 Don't you

00:18:56.440 have to

00:18:57.180 impeach

00:18:57.800 Harris?

00:18:59.680 Or remove

00:19:00.880 her?

00:19:01.800 Or something?

00:19:03.400 See, it's

00:19:04.120 really tough

00:19:04.600 for them to

00:19:05.060 follow their

00:19:05.480 own rules.

00:19:07.800 But this

00:19:08.640 might be one

00:19:09.500 of the dumbest

00:19:10.140 things the

00:19:11.020 Biden White

00:19:11.760 House has

00:19:12.140 done.

00:19:12.840 I mean, this

00:19:13.260 is super

00:19:13.700 dumb.

00:19:14.460 There's some

00:19:15.180 things which

00:19:15.700 you say to

00:19:16.140 yourself, you

00:19:17.360 know, maybe

00:19:18.500 I don't know

00:19:18.960 all the

00:19:19.220 details, or

00:19:21.040 maybe there's

00:19:22.320 a variable I

00:19:23.120 haven't considered,

00:19:24.820 or maybe it's

00:19:25.860 complicated and

00:19:26.980 nobody can make

00:19:28.060 a prediction so

00:19:28.900 you don't really

00:19:29.360 know what to

00:19:29.880 do.

00:19:30.500 But this is

00:19:31.180 one of those

00:19:31.640 rare situations

00:19:32.660 where you can

00:19:33.280 look at this

00:19:33.800 and just say,

00:19:35.320 nope, this

00:19:36.820 is just

00:19:37.300 stupid.

00:19:38.340 It's only

00:19:39.100 stupid.

00:19:40.360 There's nothing

00:19:40.920 else about it.

00:19:42.580 There's no

00:19:43.240 complexity to

00:19:44.100 this one.

00:19:44.860 Usually, even

00:19:45.600 when something's

00:19:46.280 stupid, you

00:19:47.680 can say, yeah, I

00:19:48.640 see why they

00:19:49.280 did it.

00:19:50.740 Maybe they

00:19:51.380 felt they were

00:19:52.000 forced into

00:19:52.620 doing it.

00:19:53.780 But there's

00:19:54.220 nothing like

00:19:54.840 that here.

00:19:56.060 There's nothing

00:19:56.960 to suggest that

00:19:59.260 this is a good

00:19:59.820 idea.

00:20:00.220 It's just a

00:20:01.220 messed up

00:20:01.580 idea.

00:20:03.380 So here's

00:20:04.400 the list of

00:20:05.260 countries that

00:20:06.400 Biden's

00:20:07.960 administration, or

00:20:09.500 Biden himself,

00:20:10.140 has offended.

00:20:10.720 Russia, China,

00:20:14.780 North Korea,

00:20:17.100 I would argue

00:20:17.740 Israel, Canada,

00:20:20.920 and Germany.

00:20:22.620 And that's just

00:20:23.520 so far.

00:20:24.100 Now, let me

00:20:26.040 ask you this.

00:20:27.460 Remember how it

00:20:28.100 was always big

00:20:28.700 news, and it

00:20:29.460 seemed like a

00:20:29.960 really big deal,

00:20:31.420 that other

00:20:31.940 countries might be

00:20:32.980 laughing about

00:20:33.920 Trump behind his

00:20:35.000 back?

00:20:36.240 That's pretty bad,

00:20:37.400 isn't it?

00:20:38.240 They might be

00:20:38.900 laughing behind

00:20:39.680 Trump's back.

00:20:40.600 Well, first of

00:20:43.240 all, do you

00:20:44.220 think leaders

00:20:46.220 don't laugh about

00:20:47.520 the other leaders

00:20:48.220 behind their

00:20:48.700 back?

00:20:49.540 I've got a

00:20:50.080 feeling that's

00:20:50.560 kind of common,

00:20:51.620 right?

00:20:52.320 Because it's just

00:20:52.920 like anybody else

00:20:53.820 gossiping about

00:20:54.600 anything.

00:20:55.400 I'm sure there's

00:20:56.300 a little bit of

00:20:56.920 that.

00:20:58.220 But how in the

00:20:59.980 world do we

00:21:00.560 imagine that the

00:21:01.500 other countries are

00:21:02.280 not seeing what

00:21:03.020 we see in

00:21:04.240 Biden?

00:21:05.640 They see it

00:21:06.780 too, right?

00:21:08.720 It's not just

00:21:10.340 us.

00:21:13.740 So do we not

00:21:15.300 think that they're

00:21:15.960 laughing at Biden

00:21:16.860 and his mental

00:21:18.200 capacity?

00:21:19.000 They have to be.

00:21:20.020 Of course they

00:21:20.540 are.

00:21:21.980 We hear now that

00:21:22.920 the Biden

00:21:23.300 administration is

00:21:24.180 quietly pressuring

00:21:25.860 Mexico to curb

00:21:27.300 migrants.

00:21:29.120 Who does that

00:21:30.080 remind you of?

00:21:32.260 Huh.

00:21:33.260 Oh, yeah,

00:21:33.880 Trump.

00:21:35.500 Every day that

00:21:36.540 goes by,

00:21:38.260 Trump will look

00:21:39.040 smarter.

00:21:41.100 Perfect day.

00:21:42.640 It's a perfect

00:21:43.340 day to, you

00:21:44.020 know, we'll

00:21:44.240 talk about the

00:21:44.900 China talk.

00:21:46.400 But today is a

00:21:47.220 day when Trump

00:21:48.200 looked extra

00:21:49.020 smart because the

00:21:51.180 immigration thing

00:21:52.180 fell apart.

00:21:53.660 They're going to

00:21:54.020 have to do what

00:21:54.660 Trump did or some

00:21:55.760 form of it

00:21:56.700 eventually.

00:21:58.060 And then the

00:21:58.780 China talks were a

00:21:59.920 hot mess.

00:22:00.720 So if you didn't

00:22:01.420 see the story,

00:22:02.920 Tony Blinken from

00:22:04.600 the Biden

00:22:05.660 administration, so

00:22:06.560 he was meeting in

00:22:07.240 Alaska, I guess,

00:22:07.940 with Chinese

00:22:09.180 counterparts.

00:22:11.320 And of course,

00:22:13.480 he wanted to

00:22:14.020 bring up, you

00:22:14.620 know, China's

00:22:15.380 human rights

00:22:17.140 abuses, Uyghurs

00:22:19.080 and stuff like

00:22:19.920 that.

00:22:21.120 But China

00:22:22.340 wasn't having

00:22:22.920 it.

00:22:23.240 And they

00:22:23.960 brought up

00:22:25.000 Black Lives

00:22:25.860 Matter and

00:22:26.740 all the racism

00:22:28.080 in the United

00:22:28.700 States and

00:22:29.940 said, maybe you

00:22:30.700 should take care

00:22:31.200 of your own

00:22:31.560 problem.

00:22:31.920 And do you

00:22:36.340 see now the

00:22:36.980 problem with

00:22:38.540 the United

00:22:39.060 States making

00:22:39.840 everything about

00:22:40.640 race?

00:22:43.780 China just

00:22:45.780 used the same

00:22:46.740 trick that I

00:22:47.760 just have been

00:22:48.380 explaining.

00:22:50.000 China, instead

00:22:51.180 of saying, hey,

00:22:53.220 we're not so

00:22:53.920 bad or those

00:22:54.780 things you're

00:22:55.240 accusing us of,

00:22:56.960 we didn't do

00:22:57.780 that.

00:22:59.140 Nope.

00:22:59.540 They took the

00:23:01.600 Biden administration's

00:23:02.880 own philosophy and

00:23:04.780 shoved it down

00:23:05.620 their throats in

00:23:07.620 public.

00:23:09.500 That's what they

00:23:10.420 did.

00:23:11.500 They took their

00:23:12.400 own philosophy and

00:23:13.840 shoved it down

00:23:14.700 their throats in

00:23:15.880 public.

00:23:17.120 Didn't even bother

00:23:18.440 to try to explain

00:23:19.420 away their own

00:23:20.120 behavior because

00:23:21.480 they didn't have

00:23:22.180 to.

00:23:23.200 They could just

00:23:24.100 take Biden's

00:23:25.260 own philosophy and

00:23:27.100 shove it down his

00:23:28.060 throat in

00:23:29.360 public.

00:23:30.560 And his

00:23:30.940 philosophy being

00:23:31.740 it's a big old

00:23:32.420 racist country and

00:23:33.820 we've got tons of

00:23:34.640 problems here.

00:23:37.340 So here's what

00:23:39.140 happens when you

00:23:40.260 create a narrative

00:23:41.460 for internal

00:23:43.320 domestic purposes,

00:23:44.780 the narrative being

00:23:45.600 everything's racist

00:23:46.520 all the time,

00:23:47.900 and it has an

00:23:50.280 effect.

00:23:51.820 Because China,

00:23:53.400 or let me put it

00:23:54.480 this way, as

00:23:55.520 DrPassword123 on

00:23:57.660 Twitter, noted, and

00:23:59.920 I'll use his exact

00:24:00.880 wording, we

00:24:02.240 apparently lost the

00:24:03.380 moral high ground to

00:24:04.400 a country that

00:24:05.080 harvests human organs

00:24:06.620 from minority groups.

00:24:09.580 That actually

00:24:10.680 happened.

00:24:12.720 That actually

00:24:13.900 happened.

00:24:15.060 Now you can't

00:24:16.100 fail harder than

00:24:17.300 that, Tony Blinken.

00:24:19.660 You can't fail harder

00:24:21.100 than losing the moral

00:24:21.940 ground to a country

00:24:22.900 that harvests human

00:24:24.240 organs from minority

00:24:25.260 groups.

00:24:26.720 That's as hard as

00:24:27.840 you can fail.

00:24:30.540 And I checked the

00:24:32.040 DoorDash app, and

00:24:34.160 if you search for

00:24:35.020 Chinese food now,

00:24:36.660 there's a picture of

00:24:37.540 Tony Blinken.

00:24:39.400 Yeah.

00:24:41.240 It's terrible.

00:24:42.160 Here's a persuasion

00:24:46.080 tip from Twitter

00:24:47.600 user Dan, who

00:24:48.560 noticed that Tony

00:24:50.160 Blinken's Twitter

00:24:50.980 profile starts out

00:24:53.180 by saying that he's

00:24:54.000 a very amateur

00:24:54.940 guitar player.

00:24:57.100 And so Dan notes,

00:24:58.120 and I agree,

00:24:59.300 don't ever put the

00:25:00.160 terms, quote,

00:25:01.020 very amateur

00:25:01.920 anything in your

00:25:03.620 biography if you're

00:25:04.860 an official in

00:25:05.540 anything.

00:25:06.660 It subconsciously

00:25:07.680 communicates that

00:25:08.480 you're an amateur

00:25:09.200 at your profession

00:25:10.240 too.

00:25:10.660 We associate the

00:25:12.380 words with what

00:25:13.100 we are.

00:25:14.200 And I agree

00:25:16.100 completely with that

00:25:16.940 statement.

00:25:17.780 I will say that

00:25:19.060 self-deprecation

00:25:20.400 has a place.

00:25:23.200 All right?

00:25:23.680 I would not be the

00:25:24.840 one who says,

00:25:25.580 oh, never use

00:25:26.420 self-deprecation.

00:25:27.340 I use it when

00:25:28.600 it's funny.

00:25:29.360 But here's when

00:25:30.100 you should not use

00:25:31.020 it, when it can

00:25:33.380 actually work against

00:25:34.300 your professional

00:25:35.060 reputation.

00:25:36.880 So, yeah,

00:25:37.840 that's the time

00:25:39.500 to not be

00:25:40.140 self-deprecating.

00:25:41.660 But you can do

00:25:42.560 it on, like,

00:25:43.260 minor things.

00:25:44.800 Don't be

00:25:45.180 self-deprecating

00:25:46.040 about your

00:25:46.500 entire ability

00:25:47.340 or your

00:25:47.920 professional talents,

00:25:49.740 but be

00:25:50.340 self-deprecating

00:25:51.220 about, you know,

00:25:51.880 maybe little

00:25:52.500 personality quirks

00:25:53.680 or stuff like

00:25:54.920 that.

00:25:57.140 How many of you

00:25:58.240 saw the clip

00:26:00.280 of Kamala Harris

00:26:02.340 falling apart

00:26:03.260 on Good Morning

00:26:04.060 America

00:26:04.520 when she was

00:26:06.280 being interviewed

00:26:06.780 by Savannah

00:26:07.360 Guthrie about

00:26:08.060 the school

00:26:08.620 openings?

00:26:09.580 How many of you

00:26:10.180 saw that clip?

00:26:12.220 And there's a

00:26:12.960 reason I'm asking.

00:26:16.260 Just want to see

00:26:17.160 if anybody saw it.

00:26:18.220 Well, I'm going

00:26:18.780 to guess that not

00:26:19.440 many of you did.

00:26:20.900 Now, I saw it on

00:26:21.640 social media, but I

00:26:22.600 didn't see it on

00:26:23.120 the news sites.

00:26:24.260 And here's why I'm

00:26:25.620 asking.

00:26:27.640 Kamala Harris

00:26:28.360 absolutely fell

00:26:30.160 apart.

00:26:32.060 She fell apart.

00:26:33.260 If you saw

00:26:35.180 her, that

00:26:36.680 interview, you

00:26:38.200 would say to

00:26:38.680 yourself, we

00:26:39.780 don't have a

00:26:40.360 vice president.

00:26:42.400 She did not

00:26:43.300 look, even

00:26:45.840 the minimum

00:26:46.460 capability of

00:26:48.520 an official who

00:26:49.580 talks in public.

00:26:51.500 I'm saying that

00:26:52.520 she did not

00:26:53.200 seem to have

00:26:53.920 the poise and

00:26:56.220 the ability to

00:26:56.920 answer tough

00:26:57.440 questions that

00:26:59.000 you would see

00:26:59.660 from a, you

00:27:01.700 know, a dog

00:27:03.200 catcher or

00:27:04.580 anybody.

00:27:06.400 And it was

00:27:07.260 so bad.

00:27:08.180 The reason I

00:27:08.660 asked if you'd

00:27:09.220 seen that, I'll

00:27:09.780 bet they got

00:27:10.820 rid of that

00:27:11.280 clip.

00:27:12.420 I'll bet that

00:27:12.920 clip is not

00:27:13.620 something that's

00:27:14.240 going to go

00:27:14.560 around on

00:27:15.120 ABC's site.

00:27:16.760 Maybe.

00:27:17.300 I mean, I

00:27:17.640 could be wrong

00:27:18.080 about that.

00:27:19.020 But it's the

00:27:20.840 worst thing I've

00:27:21.640 ever seen from

00:27:23.660 a professional

00:27:24.420 politician.

00:27:26.000 I've never

00:27:26.680 seen anybody

00:27:27.480 handle questions

00:27:28.480 questions so

00:27:29.620 awkwardly and

00:27:31.260 almost looking

00:27:32.360 like, I'm

00:27:33.760 not saying she

00:27:34.340 was drunk, but

00:27:35.760 almost like she

00:27:37.420 was drunk.

00:27:38.920 Not in terms of

00:27:39.940 mannerisms, and I

00:27:41.060 don't believe she

00:27:41.640 had any.

00:27:42.420 She was not

00:27:43.540 inebriated, so let

00:27:44.760 me be clear about

00:27:45.380 that.

00:27:45.860 But in terms of

00:27:46.620 how well she

00:27:47.360 performed, it

00:27:49.080 was maybe how

00:27:51.500 well you would

00:27:52.080 perform, not in

00:27:53.020 the same style,

00:27:53.860 of course, if

00:27:55.100 you'd had several

00:27:56.180 strong drinks.

00:27:57.720 I mean, it was

00:27:58.200 really bad.

00:28:00.500 And keep in

00:28:01.800 mind that we've

00:28:02.720 all seen her

00:28:03.160 talk a lot of

00:28:03.760 times, and

00:28:04.260 she's bad

00:28:04.840 generally.

00:28:06.300 She's sort of

00:28:07.180 routinely bad, but

00:28:09.080 you haven't seen

00:28:09.940 this level of

00:28:10.780 bad.

00:28:11.800 For a moment

00:28:12.500 there, we had

00:28:13.800 a president and

00:28:14.540 a vice president

00:28:15.200 who were

00:28:15.580 incoherent.

00:28:17.520 I mean, she

00:28:17.980 was actually

00:28:18.580 incoherent.

00:28:19.960 I don't know

00:28:20.580 what was going

00:28:21.040 on, maybe it

00:28:21.760 was a bad

00:28:22.160 day, but she

00:28:23.720 doesn't look like

00:28:24.400 anybody who

00:28:24.940 could step in

00:28:25.600 and take

00:28:26.080 over.

00:28:27.300 Not one

00:28:28.040 time did

00:28:29.360 Mike Pence

00:28:30.160 ever look

00:28:32.960 like he

00:28:33.360 couldn't take

00:28:33.880 over.

00:28:34.820 Am I right?

00:28:35.820 Not one

00:28:36.440 time.

00:28:37.220 I'm probably

00:28:38.120 the biggest

00:28:39.080 Mike Pence

00:28:40.100 supporter on

00:28:41.700 the planet

00:28:42.180 because of

00:28:44.740 the dog that

00:28:45.300 didn't bark.

00:28:46.400 The mistakes

00:28:47.140 he didn't

00:28:47.840 make are

00:28:49.800 pretty legendary,

00:28:51.380 really.

00:28:53.620 I would say

00:28:54.780 Pence as a

00:28:55.700 vice president.

00:28:56.380 He set the

00:28:57.580 standard, in

00:28:58.180 my opinion.

00:29:00.300 Even if you

00:29:00.980 don't like him

00:29:02.460 as a politician,

00:29:03.280 even if you

00:29:03.720 don't like his

00:29:05.100 policies, and I'm

00:29:06.300 not on his team

00:29:07.460 on all that

00:29:07.940 stuff.

00:29:08.840 So here's one

00:29:09.520 thing that I

00:29:10.120 think will be

00:29:10.480 interesting, which

00:29:11.260 is that the

00:29:11.820 longer Trump is

00:29:12.880 out of the

00:29:13.380 headlines, and

00:29:15.440 it's going to

00:29:16.400 weaken people's

00:29:17.780 reflex resistance.

00:29:20.600 resistance.

00:29:21.280 So for a long

00:29:22.760 time, as long

00:29:23.780 as Trump was

00:29:24.360 in power,

00:29:25.620 anything you

00:29:26.320 said that

00:29:26.840 was, let's

00:29:28.120 say, explaining

00:29:29.400 him or

00:29:29.980 anything would

00:29:30.560 meet with

00:29:31.160 massive resistance.

00:29:33.240 But you

00:29:33.780 notice that

00:29:34.340 after he was

00:29:35.040 out of power,

00:29:36.560 the fine

00:29:37.280 people hoax

00:29:38.080 finally fell

00:29:39.080 because it's

00:29:41.200 just not so

00:29:41.860 important to

00:29:42.560 keep up the

00:29:43.280 other side

00:29:45.920 once he's

00:29:46.360 out of power.

00:29:46.780 And we're

00:29:48.340 seeing this

00:29:48.740 happening now

00:29:49.280 with the

00:29:49.800 drinking bleach

00:29:51.420 hoax.

00:29:52.640 So yesterday

00:29:53.240 that popped

00:29:53.860 up again,

00:29:54.620 I guess Dr.

00:29:55.320 Burke said

00:29:55.900 it or

00:29:56.120 something.

00:29:57.040 And now

00:29:58.800 you're seeing

00:29:59.200 people who

00:29:59.920 are responding

00:30:01.860 to it on

00:30:02.460 social media

00:30:02.980 by sending

00:30:03.780 around the

00:30:04.340 actual technology

00:30:05.400 that does

00:30:05.960 exactly what

00:30:06.680 President Trump

00:30:07.300 said, which

00:30:08.420 is it allows

00:30:09.480 you to inject

00:30:10.600 a disinfectant

00:30:12.900 into the

00:30:14.300 body to

00:30:16.140 treat the

00:30:17.140 coronavirus.

00:30:18.720 That's a

00:30:19.420 real thing.

00:30:20.440 The company

00:30:20.920 is Heal

00:30:21.900 Light, all

00:30:22.900 one word,

00:30:23.640 like healing

00:30:24.660 and light,

00:30:25.440 Heal Light.

00:30:26.760 And it's

00:30:27.240 AYTU

00:30:28.520 Bioscience.

00:30:29.740 And they've

00:30:30.300 got a website

00:30:30.860 and it's

00:30:31.780 been around

00:30:32.140 a while.

00:30:32.700 This is the

00:30:33.240 same technology

00:30:33.920 that Trump

00:30:35.200 would have

00:30:35.820 known about

00:30:36.420 because it

00:30:37.720 was being

00:30:38.040 tweeted around

00:30:38.660 at the time

00:30:39.140 he talked

00:30:39.920 about light

00:30:40.580 being injected.

00:30:42.020 And sure

00:30:42.320 enough, they

00:30:42.720 put the light

00:30:43.380 on a ventilator

00:30:44.600 like device,

00:30:45.300 they inject

00:30:46.300 it.

00:30:47.440 Now, that's

00:30:47.860 not a medical

00:30:48.440 term, maybe,

00:30:49.580 but they

00:30:49.940 inject it down

00:30:50.700 the throat

00:30:51.600 into the

00:30:52.040 trachea and

00:30:53.100 then the

00:30:53.520 UV light

00:30:54.260 sprays out

00:30:55.020 from the

00:30:55.540 device and

00:30:56.460 it kills

00:30:57.280 coronavirus.

00:30:58.500 Now, I

00:30:58.880 don't know how

00:30:59.260 far along they

00:30:59.840 are in terms

00:31:00.300 of commercializing

00:31:01.160 it, but the

00:31:01.560 point is it

00:31:02.020 exists, it's

00:31:03.280 real, it's

00:31:04.500 what Trump

00:31:06.220 was referring

00:31:06.780 to.

00:31:07.720 And I was

00:31:08.360 watching the

00:31:08.880 resistance to

00:31:09.740 it online

00:31:10.340 because this

00:31:11.400 pops up

00:31:12.120 ever since it

00:31:12.660 happened, it's

00:31:13.100 been popping up.

00:31:13.760 And somebody

00:31:18.360 said YouTube

00:31:18.860 was blocking

00:31:19.600 that website.

00:31:21.840 I wonder if

00:31:22.260 they were.

00:31:25.420 So, my

00:31:27.860 point is that

00:31:28.640 people seem

00:31:30.100 to be

00:31:32.700 easier to

00:31:33.500 convince that

00:31:34.580 they had been

00:31:35.120 hoaxed on

00:31:36.040 this.

00:31:37.040 So, watch

00:31:37.840 as one after

00:31:38.760 another all

00:31:39.500 the Trump

00:31:40.720 hoaxes

00:31:41.480 finally get

00:31:43.540 handled after

00:31:44.900 he's out

00:31:45.200 of office.

00:31:46.720 So, do

00:31:47.460 we miss

00:31:47.900 Trump yet?

00:31:50.120 So, we've

00:31:50.420 got Biden

00:31:51.760 failing massively

00:31:52.980 on immigration.

00:31:54.660 We've got

00:31:55.560 Biden's team

00:31:56.480 embarrassing

00:31:57.040 itself with

00:31:58.360 the China

00:31:58.800 talks.

00:31:59.980 We've got

00:32:00.640 higher taxes

00:32:01.420 coming that

00:32:02.440 are very

00:32:03.080 unpopular.

00:32:03.720 every day

00:32:08.740 that goes

00:32:09.120 by, right?

00:32:10.360 Every day

00:32:10.980 that goes

00:32:11.360 by, another

00:32:12.860 hoax is

00:32:13.540 debunked

00:32:14.100 about Trump

00:32:14.820 and the

00:32:16.240 Biden

00:32:16.520 administration

00:32:17.220 finds out

00:32:17.920 that the

00:32:18.280 only thing

00:32:18.640 they can

00:32:18.960 do that

00:32:19.320 makes sense

00:32:19.780 is whatever

00:32:20.240 Trump was

00:32:20.700 doing.

00:32:21.620 And they're

00:32:22.240 going to

00:32:22.420 have to

00:32:23.360 try to

00:32:24.500 imitate that.

00:32:25.520 Let me

00:32:32.680 just look

00:32:33.060 at your

00:32:33.540 comments

00:32:34.980 here.

00:32:39.200 Use

00:32:39.640 high

00:32:39.900 viscosity

00:32:40.620 I'm not

00:32:42.400 going to

00:32:42.580 read that

00:32:42.980 comment.

00:32:47.980 What do

00:32:48.520 we think

00:32:48.780 is going

00:32:49.000 to happen

00:32:49.280 with China?

00:32:51.280 You know,

00:32:51.580 I put a

00:32:51.920 little video

00:32:52.940 on this

00:32:53.480 on the

00:32:54.700 locals

00:32:55.020 platform

00:32:55.500 today.

00:32:56.440 But I

00:32:57.260 want to

00:32:57.420 make this

00:32:57.820 prediction

00:32:59.320 also publicly,

00:33:00.540 which is,

00:33:01.740 if we're

00:33:02.480 trying to

00:33:02.820 figure out

00:33:03.200 will China

00:33:03.920 come to

00:33:04.460 dominate and

00:33:05.280 take over

00:33:05.760 the United

00:33:06.080 States,

00:33:06.560 or will

00:33:07.040 the United

00:33:07.380 States do

00:33:07.840 okay,

00:33:08.560 I feel

00:33:09.280 as if

00:33:09.800 every

00:33:10.640 major

00:33:11.100 power

00:33:11.600 forever

00:33:13.420 has

00:33:14.760 reached

00:33:15.280 some

00:33:15.580 pinnacle

00:33:16.140 and then

00:33:16.840 they

00:33:17.040 decline.

00:33:18.140 So as

00:33:18.860 the United

00:33:19.260 States

00:33:19.620 reached its

00:33:20.280 pinnacle,

00:33:21.120 and now

00:33:21.440 it'll be

00:33:21.760 on the

00:33:22.060 decline

00:33:22.540 while

00:33:22.980 China

00:33:23.440 is

00:33:23.660 rising,

00:33:24.520 because if

00:33:25.320 you just

00:33:25.620 straight line

00:33:26.140 it, it

00:33:26.440 looks like

00:33:26.800 that, right?

00:33:27.800 But I

00:33:28.200 would argue

00:33:28.660 that what

00:33:29.320 the United

00:33:30.060 States has

00:33:30.640 going for

00:33:31.180 it is

00:33:31.700 that we

00:33:32.260 continually

00:33:33.140 destroy

00:33:34.240 ourselves

00:33:34.820 to reinvent.

00:33:36.760 Indeed, I

00:33:37.420 would say

00:33:37.720 that we've

00:33:38.100 had several

00:33:38.820 different ways

00:33:39.500 to elect

00:33:40.000 a president

00:33:40.520 just in

00:33:41.680 my lifetime.

00:33:43.140 Most recently

00:33:43.840 it was about

00:33:44.360 rules changes

00:33:45.200 and the

00:33:46.240 pandemic,

00:33:46.940 and before

00:33:47.300 that it was

00:33:47.760 probably fake

00:33:48.520 news and

00:33:49.060 Russian interference

00:33:50.000 and stuff.

00:33:51.020 So even

00:33:51.620 our most

00:33:52.360 basic system

00:33:53.280 of how we

00:33:53.760 pick a

00:33:54.140 president,

00:33:55.240 it's not

00:33:55.700 really the

00:33:56.280 same,

00:33:56.680 one election

00:33:57.580 to the

00:33:57.900 next.

00:33:58.680 We destroy

00:33:59.540 everything

00:34:00.260 intentionally

00:34:01.580 because that's

00:34:03.220 how we

00:34:03.500 grow.

00:34:04.380 We're in

00:34:05.020 a continuous

00:34:06.920 death-birth

00:34:08.620 cycle.

00:34:10.460 But it's

00:34:10.940 China.

00:34:12.120 Now China's

00:34:12.680 made tremendous

00:34:13.400 changes,

00:34:14.140 so we know

00:34:14.680 that they can

00:34:15.340 do huge

00:34:17.500 changes when

00:34:18.500 needed.

00:34:19.660 But is

00:34:21.260 their system

00:34:21.880 as flexible

00:34:22.960 as ours?

00:34:24.320 There must

00:34:25.020 be a reason

00:34:25.540 that they

00:34:26.300 haven't invented

00:34:27.140 as many big

00:34:27.960 technologies,

00:34:28.820 etc.

00:34:29.180 I don't know

00:34:29.600 what that

00:34:29.820 reason is,

00:34:30.920 but it

00:34:31.660 could have

00:34:32.000 to do

00:34:32.220 with the

00:34:32.460 system.

00:34:33.740 And I

00:34:34.360 think our

00:34:34.780 system,

00:34:35.860 yeah,

00:34:36.160 creative

00:34:36.580 destruction,

00:34:37.360 somebody's

00:34:37.720 saying,

00:34:37.980 that would

00:34:38.200 be a good

00:34:38.480 way to do

00:34:38.820 it.

00:34:39.340 Our

00:34:39.600 system of

00:34:40.280 continuous

00:34:40.820 creative

00:34:41.520 destruction

00:34:42.160 makes us

00:34:44.180 unlike

00:34:44.880 the Roman

00:34:47.000 Empire.

00:34:48.340 Because I

00:34:48.660 think the

00:34:48.960 Roman Empire

00:34:49.520 just tried

00:34:50.040 to be the

00:34:50.460 Roman Empire,

00:34:51.940 and the

00:34:52.900 Mongol Empire

00:34:54.900 just tried

00:34:55.740 to be

00:34:56.000 Mongols.

00:34:56.960 But the

00:34:57.400 United States,

00:34:58.180 we're just

00:34:58.640 trying to be

00:34:59.200 something else

00:34:59.720 every other

00:35:00.120 day.

00:35:01.080 Right now

00:35:01.580 we're bringing

00:35:02.620 back our

00:35:03.360 manufacturing

00:35:04.280 from China.

00:35:05.680 That's a

00:35:05.980 pretty big

00:35:06.300 change.

00:35:07.380 That's a

00:35:07.840 pretty big

00:35:08.420 change,

00:35:08.940 but we can

00:35:09.980 turn on a

00:35:10.540 dime when

00:35:10.980 we need

00:35:11.300 to.

00:35:12.400 So I

00:35:13.000 would think

00:35:13.400 that innovation

00:35:14.160 wise,

00:35:14.660 and our

00:35:15.160 ability to

00:35:16.200 cannibalize

00:35:17.340 ourselves and

00:35:18.900 our lower

00:35:19.620 level of

00:35:20.160 corruption are

00:35:21.400 probably going

00:35:22.420 to keep us

00:35:22.900 in good

00:35:23.220 shape for

00:35:24.060 a long

00:35:24.380 time.

00:35:29.560 Yeah,

00:35:30.140 and I

00:35:30.380 think China's

00:35:31.000 got a big

00:35:31.440 demographic

00:35:32.280 problems and

00:35:33.120 everything else.

00:35:35.120 So,

00:35:36.620 just,

00:35:41.200 and we

00:35:41.540 have a

00:35:41.900 navigable

00:35:42.540 Mississippi

00:35:43.080 river

00:35:43.620 network

00:35:44.160 that's

00:35:44.520 important.

00:35:45.340 Is that

00:35:45.580 still

00:35:45.840 important in

00:35:46.600 2021?

00:35:48.020 Is it

00:35:48.260 important?

00:35:52.480 All right.

00:35:53.580 Yeah,

00:35:54.040 and the

00:35:54.200 other thing

00:35:54.520 that's going

00:35:54.840 to happen

00:35:55.060 in China

00:35:55.420 is the

00:35:55.740 middle class

00:35:56.340 will start

00:35:58.120 asking for

00:35:58.820 stuff,

00:35:59.480 and then

00:36:00.100 the power

00:36:00.660 structure is

00:36:01.220 going to

00:36:01.420 change a

00:36:01.800 little bit.

00:36:02.140 there's a

00:36:08.260 lot of

00:36:08.480 stuff in

00:36:08.800 China that's

00:36:09.300 newer and

00:36:09.840 better than

00:36:10.340 ours,

00:36:11.020 that's for

00:36:11.340 sure.

00:36:14.220 Have you

00:36:14.820 noticed that

00:36:15.340 it's a really

00:36:15.840 tough time to

00:36:16.480 be a

00:36:16.760 massage

00:36:17.260 therapist?

00:36:18.740 So now

00:36:19.160 you've got

00:36:19.440 this football

00:36:20.080 player who's

00:36:20.820 accused of

00:36:21.600 raping one,

00:36:22.340 you've got a

00:36:22.760 shooting in

00:36:23.340 Seattle at

00:36:23.980 another

00:36:24.260 massage

00:36:24.760 parlor,

00:36:25.520 you've got

00:36:25.980 the Atlanta

00:36:26.440 shooting.

00:36:26.860 why all of

00:36:28.480 a sudden

00:36:28.920 massage

00:36:30.600 parlors are

00:36:31.500 having such

00:36:33.920 unhappy

00:36:34.300 endings?

00:36:35.180 What's up

00:36:35.520 with that?

00:36:39.360 All right.

00:36:42.340 That's all

00:36:42.940 for now,

00:36:43.480 and I'm

00:36:43.880 going to go

00:36:44.180 take care of

00:36:44.720 some other

00:36:45.060 stuff,

00:36:45.540 and I will

00:36:46.020 talk to

00:36:46.400 you later.

00:36:50.220 I'm going

00:36:50.720 to make

00:36:50.920 this short

00:36:51.460 today,

00:36:52.600 and I'm

00:36:52.920 going to

00:36:53.020 go do

00:36:53.340 some other

00:36:53.720 stuff,

00:36:54.720 and I'll

00:36:55.100 talk to

00:36:55.480 you a

00:36:56.400 little bit

00:36:56.640 later.

00:36:57.500 I'm

00:36:58.600 going to

00:36:59.320 me

00:36:59.580 or

00:36:59.820 that's
