Real Coffee with Scott Adams - Episode 1567 Scott Adams： Rittenhouse Verdict

00:00:00.200 Well, we're back. Hello, YouTube, and hello, locals.

00:00:05.920 I'm not seeing comments on locals. Is locals down?

00:00:13.120 Let me make sure I've got something going on here.

00:00:15.940 We're going to talk about the verdict.

00:00:20.880 Huh. Well, I'm going to have to change my screen orientation to get to the bottom of this.

00:00:26.160 There we go. A little technical problem.

00:00:30.420 All right. How many of you have heard the verdict?

00:00:35.100 Kyle Rittenhouse, not guilty on all charges.

00:00:40.620 Not guilty on all charges.

00:00:43.760 I've got a few things to say about that.

00:00:49.620 Number one.

00:00:50.760 As I've been telling you, the entire American system, and because of America's reach, much of the world,

00:01:02.360 our ability to get along with each other and make money and defend ourselves and just about everything else

00:01:09.720 depends on one thing more than any other thing.

00:01:15.500 Trial by a jury of your peers.

00:01:18.600 If you lose that, you lose everything, right?

00:01:23.180 Because all your credibility is gone.

00:01:26.220 You just can't do anything.

00:01:28.320 And I've said for a while now that the jury system is the crown jewel of the republic.

00:01:33.620 You get that right, and you can maybe, you know, put up with a lot of imperfection elsewhere

00:01:40.000 because you can work out that imperfection over time.

00:01:42.780 But if you lose the jury by, you know, your peers, if that becomes corrupted, you've lost everything.

00:01:53.880 So, today was way bigger than Kyle Rittenhouse.

00:02:01.920 I'm going to tie a few things together that I've been talking about.

00:02:04.880 One is, a lot of you have been feeling a weird energy, haven't you?

00:02:10.240 An energy in the world, a pent-up.

00:02:13.380 There was some kind of pent-up energy.

00:02:15.260 And not just, you know, from the shutdowns.

00:02:18.340 Might be part of it.

00:02:19.480 You know, the travel restrictions or whatever.

00:02:21.160 But there was something else.

00:02:25.080 There was something big brewing.

00:02:28.580 Now, I don't know about you, but I could feel all that energy in me, like it needed to go somewhere.

00:02:35.620 And I couldn't exercise it off.

00:02:38.080 Couldn't sleep it off.

00:02:40.280 I just couldn't work it off.

00:02:42.800 And when I heard the Rittenhouse verdict,

00:02:48.180 that was it.

00:02:51.160 But it's not about him.

00:02:54.440 It's not about Rittenhouse.

00:02:57.180 I mean, it is a little bit.

00:02:59.380 But the bigger issue is that the system worked.

00:03:04.480 And this is way bigger than you think.

00:03:07.420 Not just because the republic is solid.

00:03:09.720 Because it is.

00:03:11.700 But I never thought that energy was conflict energy.

00:03:16.660 Did you?

00:03:19.000 There's something else going on here.

00:03:21.880 It's the absence of conflict energy.

00:03:26.120 And yet, gigantic energy.

00:03:28.580 So when people said to me, Scott, you're trying to, you know, rile up a civil war.

00:03:32.500 I immediately said, no, no, no.

00:03:35.120 Like, I'm not feeling that.

00:03:37.020 Not even a little bit.

00:03:38.860 Like, I think we've been, we're miles away from anything like that.

00:03:41.820 But what I think is that that energy was positive.

00:03:49.780 Don't know where it comes from.

00:03:51.360 Maybe it's just, you know, cyclical or something like that.

00:03:54.380 But here's the implications of the Rittenhouse trial.

00:04:01.280 Well, this is the day that MSNBC viewers found reality.

00:04:10.320 Do you feel it?

00:04:13.380 That's like the biggest thing that's been keeping the country apart, is that we couldn't convince

00:04:20.980 we being everybody who doesn't watch MSNBC.

00:04:23.780 We couldn't convince them that their news was made up.

00:04:28.380 But this will.

00:04:30.500 Do you know why this is special?

00:04:31.900 This is special because MSNBC hosts and their viewers have spent how long now telling us

00:04:41.860 that the election had to be fair?

00:04:45.660 Why?

00:04:47.180 Why was it that the election had to be fair and we know it for sure?

00:04:52.320 What did everybody who watches MSNBC say?

00:04:56.560 They said the courts decided.

00:04:58.140 And in those cases, I believe there were no juries, am I right?

00:05:04.340 Those were always judge decisions.

00:05:07.360 I'm not positive about that, but it's always a judge.

00:05:11.940 But, and I think most people, left and right, would agree with the following statement.

00:05:19.200 A court decision with a jury is going to be more credible than a judge.

00:05:24.780 Because if it's a judge, you say, oh, is that a Republican or a Democrat appointed judge, right?

00:05:31.020 Automatically.

00:05:32.160 But if it's a jury, well, then you're thinking, you know, maybe that's pretty good.

00:05:39.040 So, the far left has hypnotized themselves into believing that if the court says it's true, it's true.

00:05:47.040 And now the court, in the Rittenhouse case, even more credible, because 12 people agreed.

00:05:55.880 And it does look like they did a good job.

00:05:57.680 By the way, I would like to thank the jurors.

00:06:01.440 As we all should.

00:06:03.400 We should thank them for tremendous sacrifice.

00:06:07.040 Personal risk.

00:06:08.620 Definitely personal risk.

00:06:12.240 Reaching the right decision and being patriots.

00:06:14.900 I think, in the end, whatever problems they had, and we don't know the nature of it yet.

00:06:24.440 I don't know if there's some people who legitimately thought he was guilty or not.

00:06:27.900 So, we'll wait to find that out.

00:06:30.120 Maybe it was people legitimately afraid.

00:06:33.220 But, whichever it was, whether it was people legitimately afraid to make a decision because of the ramifications,

00:06:39.900 ramifications, or legitimately thought, in their best thinking, that he was guilty.

00:06:47.400 It looks like everybody involved voted for the system.

00:06:53.200 You know what I mean?

00:06:54.620 Like, if you're the holdout juror, and you realize that, you know, 11 people are on the other side,

00:06:59.780 at some point, you have to say, is this about the case?

00:07:04.640 You know, let's say that you legitimately have a different opinion.

00:07:08.040 At some point, you say, is this about the case, or is this about the system?

00:07:13.520 Because you can get a case wrong, and it's tragic.

00:07:16.420 I mean, if somebody is wrongly convicted, or even wrongly gets off, it's tragic either way.

00:07:21.300 But you can survive that.

00:07:22.980 You know what you can't survive?

00:07:25.600 Breaking the system.

00:07:28.000 So, every time a jury that's 10 to 2 comes out with a unanimous ruling,

00:07:37.080 I say to myself, there's a bunch of people who put the system first.

00:07:42.780 As they should have.

00:07:44.520 As they should have.

00:07:45.500 Now, they don't have to do that every time.

00:07:47.980 Sometimes the system is the problem.

00:07:49.720 You know, if somebody is on trial for a bogus law, and you say,

00:07:55.220 yeah, they did violate that law, but it was bogus,

00:07:58.180 do you know what the jury can do?

00:08:00.660 Break the system.

00:08:02.720 They get to break the system.

00:08:04.440 Just say, all right, we're just going to say he's innocent,

00:08:06.340 because fuck you and your laws. 1.00

00:08:08.260 You know, that's a dumb law.

00:08:09.860 We're just going to ignore it.

00:08:11.100 He's innocent.

00:08:11.520 So, here, I believe, is something that's going to cause

00:08:20.440 either massive cognitive dissonance, and probably a lot of it,

00:08:24.920 but also massive enlightenment.

00:08:28.940 At some point, the people on the far left

00:08:31.980 are going to have to ask themselves why

00:08:33.700 this thing called the court system,

00:08:36.160 in its most credible form,

00:08:38.660 meaning that the jurors really worked on this,

00:08:41.920 and the public got to watch it.

00:08:43.620 It was all transparent.

00:08:44.780 I like that part.

00:08:46.520 And through a completely credible system,

00:08:50.420 they learned that their news was fake,

00:08:54.860 and that their president

00:08:56.260 had accused a young man of being a white supremacist

00:09:01.980 with no evidence to support that.

00:09:07.060 Now, is it over?

00:09:13.020 Tell me if you think that Kyle Rittenhouse

00:09:15.900 has a legal case against the people,

00:09:19.280 let's say the TV hosts, at least.

00:09:21.680 I don't know how it works with politicians.

00:09:23.640 They have some kind of immunity, right?

00:09:25.860 But I don't know what the...

00:09:27.020 Some of you have to tell me what the political immunity is.

00:09:29.540 But if you're a TV host or a pundit

00:09:34.080 or just anybody, a public figure,

00:09:36.280 and you called a person a white supremacist

00:09:39.600 on a news channel,

00:09:41.220 that's important, right?

00:09:43.540 Because the context of being on a news channel

00:09:45.620 and nobody corrects you

00:09:47.400 or nobody pushes back on it,

00:09:50.260 that turns into news,

00:09:51.780 whether you like it or not.

00:09:54.020 I mean, it's one thing to have an opinion

00:09:56.120 that disagrees with the news,

00:09:58.080 but if you're on the news channel,

00:10:00.940 the news itself has to say

00:10:02.600 what the actual news is

00:10:04.000 or else you've presented the opinion

00:10:06.420 as the news by default

00:10:07.860 because you haven't said it's wrong.

00:10:12.240 So what is happening to the brains

00:10:14.900 of everybody who thought

00:10:16.520 he was a white supremacist

00:10:17.960 and was chasing people down

00:10:19.580 and shooting them

00:10:20.260 and came there to do that

00:10:21.500 when we learn that 100% of it is false?

00:10:24.500 Now, oh my God,

00:10:30.100 $100 as a tip here

00:10:34.900 is way too generous

00:10:36.520 and I would discourage the rest of you

00:10:38.800 from making large comments like that,

00:10:42.500 but I do appreciate it.

00:10:43.900 So I guess I'm of two minds.

00:10:46.380 I love it because it just means

00:10:48.120 that you enjoyed the content,

00:10:50.080 but I don't encourage it.

00:10:51.600 But thank you.

00:10:56.740 Now, keep in mind the context of this.

00:11:00.340 The context of this is, number one,

00:11:02.880 the entire world seeing very clearly

00:11:05.020 that Biden is worse than Trump

00:11:08.640 in terms of performance.

00:11:11.380 You know, I think even the people

00:11:13.000 on the left are saying,

00:11:13.860 you know, at least that border was better

00:11:16.600 or, you know, a few things like that.

00:11:18.100 I don't think they've quite come over

00:11:19.640 to that opinion.

00:11:21.000 But at least it's worthy of consideration.

00:11:26.380 If you're on the left or the right,

00:11:28.320 you have to ask yourself

00:11:29.560 why Biden has such a low rating.

00:11:32.340 You know, it's the lowest rated.

00:11:34.340 I'll bet they're the lowest rated

00:11:35.980 president plus vice president

00:11:38.080 of all time.

00:11:39.840 Can somebody do some math for me?

00:11:42.920 I need you to do some math

00:11:44.160 on the fly here for me.

00:11:45.140 I know that a lot of engineers watch this.

00:11:48.060 So you'll need to do a quick search

00:11:50.040 and then some math.

00:11:51.580 Is it true that if you added together

00:11:53.800 the popularity of Biden plus Congress,

00:11:58.020 so let's say Biden 36-ish,

00:12:01.140 Congress 17,

00:12:03.040 are the two of them together

00:12:05.860 still less than Trump's current popularity

00:12:08.420 after losing an election?

00:12:11.360 Am I right?

00:12:11.920 Do the math for me.

00:12:17.600 Yeah, it's about the same, right?

00:12:22.000 You know, I haven't looked

00:12:23.180 at those numbers recently.

00:12:24.980 But just think about that.

00:12:27.380 Think about being on the left

00:12:28.820 and you control Congress

00:12:30.340 and you control the presidency

00:12:31.920 and the popularity

00:12:33.900 of the two of them together,

00:12:36.180 added together,

00:12:38.280 is less than or equal to

00:12:39.880 the guy you think

00:12:41.040 was the biggest monster,

00:12:43.100 Trump.

00:12:45.500 Now,

00:12:46.980 I'd like to say,

00:12:48.060 especially if anybody's

00:12:49.120 new to me on livestream,

00:12:51.280 I'm not sure Trump

00:12:53.380 should be the next president.

00:12:55.840 And I said the same thing

00:12:57.820 when he ran the first time

00:12:58.800 because of age.

00:13:01.060 You know,

00:13:01.340 I think we need to have

00:13:02.400 an age cutoff for president.

00:13:04.200 I mean, I think it's really important.

00:13:05.560 Now, that said,

00:13:08.440 Trump is,

00:13:09.840 he looks like he's,

00:13:10.900 you know,

00:13:11.400 20 years younger.

00:13:12.860 I don't know how he does it.

00:13:14.200 You know,

00:13:14.340 he does seem to have the energy.

00:13:17.080 I've detected,

00:13:18.120 you know,

00:13:18.360 no difference in his brain

00:13:19.580 in the last several years.

00:13:21.580 So, you know,

00:13:22.680 you could certainly

00:13:23.200 make an argument for him.

00:13:24.380 And if he ends up,

00:13:25.280 you know,

00:13:25.520 running against somebody weak,

00:13:26.980 of course,

00:13:27.380 I would support him.

00:13:29.040 But,

00:13:29.760 think about this.

00:13:33.060 Think about the fact

00:13:34.180 that of all the Republicans

00:13:36.700 in the world

00:13:37.400 who are not Trump

00:13:38.260 and of all the Democrats

00:13:40.400 in the world,

00:13:41.960 nobody could come up

00:13:43.660 with a candidate

00:13:44.480 more popular than Trump.

00:13:48.380 That's true, right?

00:13:50.620 That we couldn't find,

00:13:51.580 we scoured the country

00:13:52.780 and we couldn't find anybody

00:13:54.720 more popular than Trump.

00:13:58.480 Now, DeSantis

00:13:59.480 has a strong game

00:14:01.000 and if he got the nomination,

00:14:02.780 I'm sure I would support him.

00:14:05.700 Because I just like

00:14:06.900 what he brings.

00:14:08.080 Now, remember,

00:14:08.760 I've said a number of times

00:14:10.600 that there's no such thing

00:14:12.400 as a good president,

00:14:14.740 which seems weird.

00:14:17.440 But Democrat or Republican,

00:14:19.160 there's no such thing

00:14:19.860 as a good president.

00:14:21.100 The only thing there is

00:14:22.260 is a lucky coincidence

00:14:23.960 that the person

00:14:25.380 who has the job

00:14:26.160 has the right skills

00:14:27.140 for this specific set

00:14:28.660 of challenges

00:14:29.240 which are always unpredictable.

00:14:30.880 So Trump was sort of

00:14:34.100 the perfect border president,

00:14:36.960 although I wish

00:14:37.600 he'd framed it better.

00:14:39.860 DeSantis could probably

00:14:40.740 handle that.

00:14:43.780 And maybe we needed

00:14:46.460 a little bit of Biden

00:14:47.380 to add a little kindness

00:14:49.640 into the system

00:14:50.560 one way or another.

00:14:51.380 So I do like

00:14:54.820 sort of the,

00:14:56.100 I like the wavy nature

00:14:58.720 of our leadership.

00:15:00.360 And I think

00:15:00.920 some other people

00:15:01.620 like it too.

00:15:03.200 But pretty weird

00:15:04.540 that we waited

00:15:05.500 all this time

00:15:06.320 and we,

00:15:06.900 and there's no obvious person

00:15:08.260 who's even close,

00:15:09.300 right?

00:15:10.280 That you forget,

00:15:12.360 it's easy to forget

00:15:13.400 how much wattage

00:15:14.600 Trump puts out

00:15:16.300 that everybody else

00:15:18.300 disappears

00:15:18.860 when you hold him

00:15:20.160 in your mind.

00:15:21.500 Am I right?

00:15:22.820 Republican or Democrat,

00:15:24.740 pick the most exciting

00:15:26.060 other candidate.

00:15:28.580 Do a,

00:15:28.880 do a split screen

00:15:29.740 in your mind.

00:15:30.520 One is Trump

00:15:31.140 and one is anybody.

00:15:32.720 Just any other person.

00:15:36.000 Right?

00:15:36.560 Unless you picked

00:15:37.320 Alex Jones

00:15:38.140 as the other person.

00:15:41.320 You know,

00:15:41.960 just for the,

00:15:42.600 for the wattage of it.

00:15:46.960 Oh, you know what?

00:15:47.880 You know who

00:15:48.260 could come close?

00:15:49.840 Yeah, Tucker,

00:15:50.840 I don't think Tucker

00:15:51.580 has any political ambitions.

00:15:54.860 Uh, Joe Rogan.

00:15:55.880 Yeah.

00:15:56.700 That would be interesting.

00:15:58.620 I can't imagine

00:15:59.640 Joe Rogan running

00:16:00.380 for president,

00:16:01.140 but you're right,

00:16:02.440 he does have the,

00:16:04.040 he would,

00:16:04.640 he would bring

00:16:05.260 the wattage.

00:16:06.160 That's true.

00:16:07.660 That is true.

00:16:08.620 But you notice

00:16:09.680 that all the people

00:16:10.360 that you can think of

00:16:11.460 are not running,

00:16:12.740 right?

00:16:13.680 Like every time

00:16:14.480 you think of somebody,

00:16:15.200 hey, how about this?

00:16:15.900 They're not running.

00:16:18.100 Right?

00:16:19.640 So,

00:16:20.360 Trump is the only one

00:16:21.760 who's a legitimate candidate.

00:16:25.160 I mean,

00:16:25.780 Trey Gowdy

00:16:26.760 would be

00:16:27.300 really interesting,

00:16:28.260 but it doesn't sound

00:16:28.980 like he's interested.

00:16:30.860 He may not want

00:16:31.940 to get vetted

00:16:32.560 because it's pretty brutal.

00:16:33.640 All right,

00:16:35.400 so,

00:16:35.700 uh,

00:16:36.020 back to,

00:16:36.600 uh,

00:16:37.220 Trey Gowdy,

00:16:37.920 I'm sorry,

00:16:38.420 back to,

00:16:38.980 uh,

00:16:39.220 Kyle.

00:16:40.720 Um,

00:16:41.320 I felt this

00:16:42.340 giant pressure release

00:16:43.900 because if you think,

00:16:46.560 it feels like

00:16:47.360 things have been

00:16:48.460 pushing in one

00:16:49.180 direction forever

00:16:50.000 and it feels like

00:16:51.740 it just stopped

00:16:52.460 and it feels like

00:16:54.340 the people on the left

00:16:55.320 probably are learning

00:16:56.440 something from this

00:16:57.560 because it comes

00:16:58.640 so soon after learning

00:16:59.760 that the Russia

00:17:00.560 collusion thing

00:17:01.300 was made up.

00:17:02.000 Right?

00:17:04.240 If it hadn't come

00:17:05.300 right so soon

00:17:06.660 after learning

00:17:07.340 that one of their

00:17:07.980 most fundamental

00:17:09.480 things they believed

00:17:10.480 was false,

00:17:12.080 maybe it wouldn't

00:17:13.500 have the same power.

00:17:15.220 But also,

00:17:16.120 as I told you earlier,

00:17:17.680 it used to be

00:17:18.360 when I would say

00:17:18.920 that the fine people

00:17:20.020 hoax was a hoax,

00:17:22.420 uh,

00:17:22.780 I would get streams

00:17:24.040 of comments

00:17:24.660 from people saying,

00:17:25.680 hoax?

00:17:26.220 I saw it myself.

00:17:27.760 I watched it

00:17:28.620 with my own eyes

00:17:29.560 and heard it

00:17:30.000 with my own ears.

00:17:30.760 And then it takes

00:17:32.280 a while to tell

00:17:33.420 people to look

00:17:34.040 at the transcript

00:17:34.680 and they can see

00:17:35.460 that they've been

00:17:36.000 hoaxed.

00:17:36.820 Because if you see

00:17:37.500 the full transcript,

00:17:39.520 you see that Trump

00:17:40.380 clarifies exactly

00:17:41.780 that he's not

00:17:42.620 talking about the

00:17:43.300 people that they

00:17:44.580 say he's talking

00:17:45.240 about.

00:17:45.920 And he wasn't

00:17:46.500 even prompted

00:17:47.040 to do it.

00:17:47.540 It was just

00:17:47.840 the next thing

00:17:48.420 he said.

00:17:49.220 They just added

00:17:49.820 that part out.

00:17:50.860 And it looks

00:17:51.460 like he's saying

00:17:51.960 the opposite

00:17:52.420 of what he

00:17:52.880 clearly said.

00:17:54.480 So,

00:17:55.320 once both the

00:17:57.140 left and the

00:17:57.740 right have seen

00:17:59.040 several examples

00:18:00.060 of what I

00:18:01.580 like to call

00:18:02.080 a Rupar video,

00:18:03.920 a video where

00:18:04.680 you edit down

00:18:05.340 a piece of it

00:18:06.100 and it reverses

00:18:06.880 its meaning,

00:18:08.160 once you've seen

00:18:08.900 that that's a

00:18:09.440 real thing

00:18:10.000 and it's easy

00:18:11.800 to do

00:18:12.260 and it happens

00:18:13.360 a lot,

00:18:14.780 then you start

00:18:15.920 distrusting

00:18:16.520 everything.

00:18:17.520 And then the

00:18:17.860 Kyle Rittenhouse

00:18:18.560 thing was based

00:18:19.640 on video,

00:18:20.280 right?

00:18:22.040 What should have

00:18:23.040 been a more

00:18:24.280 conclusive situation

00:18:26.080 than the entire

00:18:26.920 thing caught on

00:18:27.580 video?

00:18:28.660 And yet,

00:18:29.320 it went to a

00:18:30.280 trial that had

00:18:31.920 a four-day

00:18:32.560 deliberation.

00:18:34.600 So,

00:18:35.380 I'm pretty sure

00:18:36.240 that even people

00:18:36.980 on the left

00:18:37.440 have figured it

00:18:38.160 down by now

00:18:38.860 that you can't

00:18:39.920 trust video.

00:18:41.000 You can't trust

00:18:41.780 the memes put

00:18:43.300 out by the

00:18:43.900 right because

00:18:45.120 the right

00:18:46.520 quite,

00:18:47.700 let's say,

00:18:49.400 quite strategically

00:18:50.260 decided that

00:18:51.740 they would just

00:18:52.140 start making

00:18:52.640 up memes

00:18:53.200 because nobody

00:18:54.640 could tell

00:18:55.000 the difference.

00:18:55.500 I think the

00:18:58.040 left and the

00:18:58.460 right have

00:18:58.720 both seen

00:18:59.140 that videos

00:18:59.720 can be faked

00:19:00.460 just by an

00:19:01.080 easy edit

00:19:01.560 or even

00:19:02.720 slowing down

00:19:03.260 the speed.

00:19:04.100 There are a

00:19:04.360 number of

00:19:04.620 ways to do

00:19:05.040 it.

00:19:06.280 What happened

00:19:06.880 to my

00:19:07.080 hands?

00:19:07.700 I punched

00:19:08.520 something that

00:19:09.360 needed punching

00:19:11.160 which was very

00:19:13.400 painful.

00:19:14.240 Luckily,

00:19:14.840 I draw with

00:19:15.260 my left

00:19:15.620 hand.

00:19:17.200 Sometimes you

00:19:17.840 have to punch

00:19:18.280 things.

00:19:19.400 But this was

00:19:19.940 my very point.

00:19:20.720 Remember I was

00:19:21.160 telling you that

00:19:21.680 there was some

00:19:22.400 kind of wild

00:19:23.060 energy that

00:19:23.820 was built

00:19:24.480 up inside

00:19:25.320 me and I

00:19:26.120 was wondering

00:19:26.660 if other

00:19:27.080 people were

00:19:27.500 feeling it.

00:19:28.740 Punching 0.99

00:19:29.120 something didn't

00:19:29.680 make any

00:19:30.100 difference like

00:19:31.840 usually it

00:19:32.360 does.

00:19:32.860 It was a

00:19:33.540 consumer product

00:19:34.320 not a

00:19:34.760 person.

00:19:35.780 I punched

00:19:36.760 a product.

00:19:38.760 I thought

00:19:39.840 that my

00:19:40.180 punch would

00:19:40.640 go clean

00:19:41.240 through it

00:19:41.760 but I

00:19:43.560 didn't count

00:19:44.140 on what was

00:19:44.580 on the other

00:19:44.940 side of it.

00:19:46.980 So yeah,

00:19:48.140 kind of stupid.

00:19:49.720 I paid for

00:19:50.480 it.

00:19:50.700 And damn

00:19:52.640 it hurt.

00:19:53.180 I got to

00:19:53.520 tell you,

00:19:53.880 this really

00:19:54.260 hurt.

00:19:56.160 But that's

00:19:57.080 not what we're

00:19:57.560 talking about.

00:19:59.380 It wasn't a

00:20:00.200 printer, no.

00:20:00.780 You don't need

00:20:01.460 to know the

00:20:01.840 rest.

00:20:02.220 It's not

00:20:02.540 important.

00:20:06.120 All right,

00:20:06.780 so that's

00:20:07.460 my thesis.

00:20:08.740 My thesis is

00:20:09.620 that there is

00:20:10.120 a shift in

00:20:10.940 reality or

00:20:12.540 how it's

00:20:13.900 being perceived.

00:20:15.740 I think

00:20:16.380 also that

00:20:17.400 the left

00:20:17.860 can see that

00:20:18.740 they are just

00:20:19.540 making up

00:20:20.200 stuff and

00:20:21.340 that they're

00:20:21.740 hallucinating

00:20:22.480 white supremacists

00:20:23.540 everywhere.

00:20:24.660 I think the

00:20:25.560 next stage

00:20:26.120 might be

00:20:26.640 Kyle doing

00:20:27.380 lawsuits.

00:20:29.240 And if he

00:20:29.940 wins any,

00:20:30.660 or even if

00:20:31.180 they're just

00:20:31.520 in the news,

00:20:32.760 it's going to

00:20:33.280 change the

00:20:34.640 people on the

00:20:35.480 left,

00:20:35.880 their opinion

00:20:36.440 somewhat.

00:20:38.220 I mean,

00:20:38.940 people don't

00:20:39.600 change,

00:20:40.340 change,

00:20:40.860 but this is

00:20:41.480 a lot of

00:20:42.440 evidence

00:20:42.940 suggesting that

00:20:44.620 they've been

00:20:45.040 duped in

00:20:45.660 their news

00:20:46.080 sources.

00:20:46.900 And I don't

00:20:47.560 know that that

00:20:48.220 can be kept

00:20:48.980 from them

00:20:49.580 even if

00:20:50.060 they just

00:20:50.400 keep watching

00:20:50.960 MSNBC.

00:20:52.520 I think

00:20:53.060 the news

00:20:53.860 that they've

00:20:54.280 been duped

00:20:54.900 badly has

00:20:56.740 to seep

00:20:57.700 into their

00:20:58.340 bubble from

00:20:59.220 everywhere at

00:21:00.260 this point.

00:21:03.380 I was

00:21:04.080 getting nervous

00:21:04.680 of any guilty

00:21:05.320 verdict because

00:21:06.100 of how angry

00:21:07.100 I would be,

00:21:07.720 somebody said.

00:21:10.860 Oh,

00:21:11.380 now people

00:21:11.900 are saying

00:21:12.200 they should

00:21:12.580 sue Kyle

00:21:13.320 in a...

00:21:15.440 I was

00:21:16.100 wondering if

00:21:16.540 that was

00:21:16.800 going to

00:21:17.000 happen.

00:21:18.460 But can

00:21:19.020 he

00:21:19.160 counter-sue?

00:21:20.900 Can't

00:21:21.340 Kyle

00:21:21.640 counter-sue

00:21:22.440 and say,

00:21:22.960 hey,

00:21:23.200 you're

00:21:23.980 blaming me

00:21:24.520 of murder

00:21:24.900 and I'm

00:21:25.380 not a

00:21:25.640 murderer?

00:21:27.440 I think

00:21:28.080 that the

00:21:28.680 collective

00:21:33.800 consciousness

00:21:34.420 is changing.

00:21:35.360 Yes,

00:21:35.680 that is

00:21:35.960 exactly what

00:21:36.580 I'm saying.

00:21:37.540 The zeitgeist,

00:21:38.460 if you will.

00:21:40.760 I was

00:21:41.200 reading,

00:21:41.980 saw another

00:21:42.440 article,

00:21:42.940 I think it

00:21:43.280 was on,

00:21:44.100 no,

00:21:44.340 I guess it

00:21:44.620 was on

00:21:44.880 Fox website

00:21:46.560 about a

00:21:47.800 feminist

00:21:48.280 who thinks

00:21:50.760 all the

00:21:51.140 trans stuff 1.00

00:21:51.960 is terrible

00:21:52.500 for women

00:21:53.080 and so

00:21:53.740 she's basically

00:21:54.480 saying let's

00:21:55.060 put the brakes

00:21:55.640 on the

00:21:56.800 wokeness

00:21:57.420 coming from

00:21:58.540 feminists. 0.94

00:22:00.060 And,

00:22:00.340 you know,

00:22:00.640 Bill Maher

00:22:01.180 criticizing his

00:22:02.120 own party

00:22:02.620 because he

00:22:03.100 says they

00:22:03.440 have a

00:22:03.680 crazy wing

00:22:04.280 now.

00:22:05.320 There's a

00:22:06.020 whole bunch

00:22:07.020 of stuff

00:22:07.540 that's

00:22:07.820 happening

00:22:08.160 and the

00:22:08.880 only reason

00:22:09.340 this sort

00:22:10.180 of correction

00:22:10.800 is happening,

00:22:12.560 I hate to

00:22:13.060 say it,

00:22:13.560 but it

00:22:15.460 might be

00:22:15.860 because Trump's

00:22:16.660 out of office

00:22:17.360 and they

00:22:18.880 got to

00:22:19.280 see,

00:22:20.040 it's a

00:22:20.480 case of

00:22:20.860 the dog

00:22:21.260 chasing the

00:22:22.140 car,

00:22:23.380 be sorry

00:22:24.320 what you

00:22:24.660 catch,

00:22:25.500 you know,

00:22:25.880 be sorry,

00:22:27.280 what's the,

00:22:27.900 there's a

00:22:28.360 Chinese proverb

00:22:29.180 about be

00:22:30.740 sorry what

00:22:31.180 you ask

00:22:31.700 for.

00:22:33.000 So,

00:22:37.400 oh,

00:22:40.460 what about

00:22:40.880 Bill Maher's

00:22:41.920 stance on

00:22:42.300 January 6th?

00:22:44.720 Yeah,

00:22:45.300 I think he

00:22:46.280 hasn't seen

00:22:47.820 the full

00:22:48.200 news on

00:22:48.660 that.

00:22:49.440 That's my

00:22:50.080 guess.

00:22:51.420 Because I

00:22:52.020 don't know

00:22:52.320 that he

00:22:52.540 would have

00:22:52.820 a different

00:22:53.260 opinion than

00:22:53.860 anybody who

00:22:54.400 had seen

00:22:54.700 the full

00:22:55.120 news.

00:22:59.960 Anyway,

00:23:00.560 the Democrats

00:23:01.080 got what they

00:23:01.620 wanted,

00:23:02.020 control of

00:23:02.600 Congress,

00:23:03.160 and they

00:23:03.440 got their

00:23:04.260 president.

00:23:04.820 what?

00:23:12.040 Somebody

00:23:12.560 says my

00:23:13.060 Twitter

00:23:13.400 posts are

00:23:13.980 deleted?

00:23:16.640 That can't

00:23:17.400 be true,

00:23:17.800 is it?

00:23:19.820 Victor Davis

00:23:20.620 Hanson agrees

00:23:21.300 with your

00:23:21.600 assessment.

00:23:22.660 Canceling

00:23:23.040 Trump was

00:23:23.500 the biggest

00:23:23.880 mistake the

00:23:24.560 left ever

00:23:24.980 made,

00:23:25.420 right?

00:23:26.640 Right.

00:23:27.720 Trump,

00:23:28.460 for all of

00:23:28.960 his benefits,

00:23:30.300 was very

00:23:31.420 expensive.

00:23:31.920 You know

00:23:33.600 what I

00:23:33.800 mean?

00:23:35.320 I always

00:23:36.200 said he's

00:23:36.720 just an

00:23:37.060 expensive

00:23:37.480 president,

00:23:38.340 but if the

00:23:39.440 things he

00:23:39.840 can do are

00:23:40.460 uniquely things

00:23:41.320 he can do,

00:23:42.080 then you get

00:23:42.620 what you

00:23:42.880 paid for.

00:23:44.040 That was

00:23:44.560 always my

00:23:44.980 take.

00:23:45.320 I never

00:23:45.560 said he

00:23:46.080 walked on

00:23:46.500 water.

00:23:46.980 I just

00:23:47.200 said he

00:23:47.440 was expensive,

00:23:48.280 but you

00:23:48.480 get what

00:23:48.760 you paid

00:23:49.020 for.

00:24:01.920 You don't

00:24:02.880 blow up

00:24:03.240 the system

00:24:03.700 for free.

00:24:04.540 Yeah.

00:24:08.860 I was a

00:24:09.640 nervous wreck

00:24:10.580 when they

00:24:10.900 were reading.

00:24:13.620 Oh, my

00:24:14.260 God, is

00:24:14.840 that true?

00:24:16.220 On

00:24:16.340 Locals, I'm

00:24:18.300 seeing they're

00:24:18.700 posting a

00:24:19.220 picture.

00:24:20.200 It looks

00:24:20.460 like a

00:24:20.740 screenshot from

00:24:21.520 MSNBC.

00:24:22.460 That couldn't

00:24:22.760 be from

00:24:23.100 today, that

00:24:24.360 they're focusing

00:24:24.900 on the

00:24:25.280 victims.

00:24:26.440 Today?

00:24:28.120 Are you

00:24:28.720 kidding?

00:24:28.940 Are you

00:24:29.020 kidding?

00:24:31.920 No, my

00:24:32.520 printer is

00:24:32.940 fine, by

00:24:33.380 the way.

00:24:33.720 My new

00:24:34.600 HP printer,

00:24:35.680 it's a

00:24:36.300 beast.

00:24:37.960 It's done

00:24:38.940 everything I've

00:24:39.560 asked of

00:24:40.020 it.

00:24:44.080 All right.

00:24:45.020 Well, then

00:24:45.860 let me ask

00:24:46.340 you a 0.57

00:24:47.780 closing

00:24:48.120 question here.

00:24:55.840 All right,

00:24:56.400 I'll tell

00:24:56.680 you what I

00:24:57.080 punched.

00:24:58.420 Do you

00:24:58.940 really need

00:24:59.300 to know

00:24:59.560 that badly?

00:25:01.920 All right,

00:25:02.900 I'll tell

00:25:03.200 you what I

00:25:03.540 punched.

00:25:06.820 So, my

00:25:07.880 cat eats

00:25:08.780 these treats

00:25:10.380 called

00:25:10.700 Little

00:25:11.020 Friskies. 1.00

00:25:12.520 And it

00:25:13.140 comes in

00:25:13.540 a plastic

00:25:14.500 container,

00:25:15.580 about

00:25:15.940 yay big.

00:25:17.380 And when

00:25:18.000 you open

00:25:18.340 the plastic

00:25:18.800 container,

00:25:19.400 there's a

00:25:20.220 sort of

00:25:21.620 a plastic

00:25:22.680 cover that

00:25:24.300 must be

00:25:24.780 removed.

00:25:26.320 Now,

00:25:27.520 I have

00:25:28.560 a pet

00:25:29.520 peeve.

00:25:30.800 And it

00:25:31.120 goes like

00:25:31.560 this.

00:25:32.460 If I

00:25:33.040 have to

00:25:33.480 get a

00:25:34.100 tool to

00:25:35.440 use your

00:25:35.960 product that

00:25:36.720 I just

00:25:37.040 bought off

00:25:37.600 a store

00:25:38.260 shelf,

00:25:39.360 if I

00:25:39.780 have to

00:25:40.120 get a

00:25:40.460 tool,

00:25:41.440 even if

00:25:41.940 that tool 0.78

00:25:42.360 is just

00:25:42.760 scissors,

00:25:43.720 or anything,

00:25:45.340 if I can't

00:25:46.060 open this

00:25:46.800 with my

00:25:47.200 bare hands,

00:25:49.080 I go a

00:25:49.860 little

00:25:50.020 batshit.

00:25:51.920 Because I

00:25:52.640 think to

00:25:52.980 myself,

00:25:53.420 who tested

00:25:56.780 this?

00:25:58.360 Did

00:25:58.740 anybody see

00:25:59.500 how angry

00:26:00.240 the consumer

00:26:00.900 would be

00:26:01.420 if they

00:26:01.900 had to

00:26:02.120 go find

00:26:02.780 a tool

00:26:03.340 to open

00:26:04.240 their

00:26:04.480 product?

00:26:05.680 And so

00:26:06.300 I said

00:26:06.640 to myself,

00:26:07.440 well,

00:26:07.720 I'll just

00:26:08.100 use my

00:26:08.880 thumbs.

00:26:09.760 But man,

00:26:10.480 this was a

00:26:10.960 really good

00:26:11.540 top.

00:26:13.080 It was

00:26:13.320 really on

00:26:13.760 there.

00:26:14.840 And I

00:26:15.200 pressed and

00:26:15.760 I pressed

00:26:16.220 and nothing

00:26:17.400 happened.

00:26:18.140 In fact,

00:26:18.640 it started

00:26:19.020 to hurt

00:26:19.420 my thumbs.

00:26:21.040 Now I

00:26:21.580 was not

00:26:21.940 only offended

00:26:22.600 psychologically

00:26:23.440 by the

00:26:24.180 fact that

00:26:24.520 they would

00:26:24.820 give me

00:26:25.120 this product

00:26:25.760 that couldn't

00:26:26.560 be opened

00:26:26.920 without a

00:26:27.400 tool.

00:26:28.020 But now

00:26:28.420 I was in

00:26:28.760 pain.

00:26:29.680 Hurt my

00:26:30.200 thumbs.

00:26:30.860 Pressed

00:26:31.060 too hard.

00:26:31.500 Nothing

00:26:31.660 happened.

00:26:32.760 So I

00:26:33.100 said to

00:26:33.360 myself,

00:26:33.800 well,

00:26:33.940 it's about

00:26:34.220 this big,

00:26:35.120 about this

00:26:35.740 big around.

00:26:37.320 My fist

00:26:38.020 is going

00:26:38.300 to fit

00:26:38.560 through there

00:26:39.020 pretty easily.

00:26:40.620 So I

00:26:41.180 gave it

00:26:41.480 a good

00:26:41.800 bam,

00:26:42.820 as hard

00:26:43.180 as I

00:26:43.440 could.

00:26:45.400 Didn't

00:26:45.800 even

00:26:46.240 slightly

00:26:47.480 damage it.

00:26:49.240 And I

00:26:49.800 thought,

00:26:50.500 really?

00:26:51.600 Because,

00:26:52.180 you know,

00:26:52.480 I hadn't

00:26:52.900 yet damaged

00:26:53.640 my hand,

00:26:54.700 but I

00:26:54.980 thought,

00:26:55.320 I really

00:26:55.740 punched the

00:26:56.360 shit out of

00:26:56.860 that thing, 0.68

00:26:57.400 because I

00:26:57.660 was pretty

00:26:57.960 mad.

00:26:59.140 But now

00:26:59.680 I was

00:26:59.980 really mad,

00:27:01.240 because I

00:27:01.920 punched it

00:27:02.500 if nothing

00:27:02.840 had happened.

00:27:04.020 And so I

00:27:04.420 leaned back,

00:27:05.180 and I just

00:27:05.640 punched it

00:27:06.540 as hard as I

00:27:07.180 could.

00:27:08.680 Because I

00:27:09.280 didn't care

00:27:09.600 what happened

00:27:10.100 at that point.

00:27:11.120 I didn't

00:27:11.460 care if there

00:27:11.980 were little

00:27:12.340 friskies

00:27:12.820 everywhere.

00:27:13.780 I was

00:27:14.380 going to

00:27:14.620 open that

00:27:15.080 without a

00:27:15.660 tool.

00:27:16.640 So I

00:27:17.060 punched the

00:27:18.140 bejesus

00:27:18.960 out of it.

00:27:19.460 didn't even

00:27:22.300 slightly

00:27:23.040 change its

00:27:25.700 adhesion to

00:27:28.340 the rest of

00:27:29.760 the container.

00:27:31.720 Well,

00:27:32.380 guess how

00:27:32.740 mad I

00:27:33.140 was now?

00:27:34.480 Because by

00:27:35.020 now,

00:27:35.920 my fist

00:27:36.460 hurt,

00:27:37.440 my thumbs

00:27:37.960 hurt,

00:27:38.880 and my

00:27:39.240 brain hurt.

00:27:41.140 And I

00:27:41.780 was going

00:27:42.060 to get

00:27:42.280 those little

00:27:42.780 friskies

00:27:43.220 out of

00:27:43.520 there without

00:27:44.880 turning around

00:27:46.180 and getting

00:27:46.740 the scissors

00:27:47.280 that were

00:27:47.740 two steps

00:27:48.260 away.

00:27:49.440 No,

00:27:50.000 no,

00:27:50.220 no.

00:27:51.040 Those scissors

00:27:51.780 were going

00:27:52.200 to remain

00:27:52.680 right where

00:27:53.520 they were,

00:27:54.480 and I

00:27:54.940 was going

00:27:55.240 to open

00:27:55.500 this with

00:27:56.240 my bare

00:27:56.800 hands.

00:27:58.140 And so

00:27:58.580 it was

00:27:58.940 time to

00:27:59.340 go all

00:27:59.960 Hulk

00:28:01.240 must crush

00:28:02.460 on them.

00:28:03.980 And so

00:28:04.320 I said to

00:28:04.780 myself,

00:28:05.740 I'm either

00:28:06.260 going to

00:28:06.540 break my

00:28:07.360 hand,

00:28:08.220 or I'm

00:28:08.620 going to

00:28:08.860 open this

00:28:09.420 packaging.

00:28:10.720 And so

00:28:11.240 I punched

00:28:11.780 it with

00:28:12.320 the kind

00:28:12.780 of force

00:28:13.340 that would

00:28:14.560 guarantee

00:28:15.020 that if it

00:28:15.720 didn't open,

00:28:16.360 I would

00:28:16.620 break my

00:28:17.120 hand and

00:28:19.020 it opened.

00:28:20.780 Now,

00:28:21.380 I was not

00:28:22.200 so accurate

00:28:22.780 and I hit

00:28:23.300 the hard

00:28:23.860 plastic shell

00:28:24.800 on the way

00:28:25.300 through and

00:28:26.780 that's where

00:28:27.180 I badly

00:28:27.840 injured my

00:28:28.400 hand and

00:28:28.960 bled all

00:28:29.700 over my

00:28:30.100 kitchen,

00:28:30.840 or over

00:28:31.240 my bathroom

00:28:31.800 actually.

00:28:33.140 So there

00:28:33.740 was a lot

00:28:34.040 of blood.

00:28:35.840 But do

00:28:37.360 you know

00:28:37.560 what I

00:28:37.840 did?

00:28:39.980 I opened

00:28:40.720 it without

00:28:41.100 a tool.

00:28:43.560 And I

00:28:43.940 call that

00:28:44.580 winning.

00:28:46.220 So today's

00:28:46.920 all about

00:28:47.300 winning

00:28:47.560 people.

00:28:48.780 Kyle

00:28:49.000 Rittenhouse,

00:28:49.560 he's a

00:28:49.860 winner,

00:28:50.200 you're a

00:28:50.540 winner,

00:28:50.820 because we

00:28:51.380 have a

00:28:52.060 jury system

00:28:53.080 that works.

00:28:55.280 And that

00:28:55.680 little friskies

00:28:56.640 container,

00:28:58.140 well, it

00:28:58.780 doesn't know

00:28:59.280 about Prisoner

00:29:00.040 Island.

00:29:01.680 You've heard

00:29:02.300 of Prisoner

00:29:02.820 Island?

00:29:03.620 Well, now my

00:29:04.320 little friskies

00:29:05.060 has heard about
