Real Coffee with Scott Adams - Episode 1686 Scott Adams： Let's Talk About Hunter's Laptop And All The Fake News About The Fake News

00:00:00.000 Good morning, everybody, and welcome to the best thing in civilization.

00:00:06.940 It's called Coffee with Scott Adams.

00:00:08.860 Gets better every day, you've probably noticed.

00:00:11.060 And how would you like to take it up a notch?

00:00:13.260 Because we're going to be talking about Hunter's laptop and all kinds of stuff.

00:00:20.120 And somebody in the comments just said, I think I'm pregnant.

00:00:24.320 Okay.

00:00:26.000 Congratulations.

00:00:27.040 Maybe.

00:00:27.440 But if you'd like to take it up a notch, all you do is a cup or a mug or a glass, a tank or a chalice of dine, a canteen jug or a flask, a vessel of any kind.

00:00:35.620 Why don't you put your different liquid into it?

00:00:40.860 And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure.

00:00:44.080 It's the dopamine hit of the day.

00:00:45.900 It's the thing that makes everything better.

00:00:48.440 It's called the simultaneous sip.

00:00:51.440 Some call it the sultry sip.

00:00:53.920 But no, it's the simultaneous sip.

00:00:56.100 Go.

00:00:57.440 What's a binger?

00:01:09.360 Somebody's going to do a simultaneous binger?

00:01:12.520 Is that like a, well, I can't even imagine.

00:01:14.560 Well, according to Rasmussen, Republicans have an 11-point lead against a generic Democrat on the congressional ballot, with only 235 days left before the midterms.

00:01:28.920 And if the election were held today, 50% of likely U.S. voters would vote for the Republican, while only 39% would vote for the Democrat.

00:01:40.120 Does that tell you that the Republicans are going to win everything?

00:01:44.260 The trouble with this kind of a survey is that while it accurately captures what people are thinking, it doesn't accurately capture how they act.

00:01:54.700 Because how they act is they say, yeah, all these politicians are terrible.

00:01:59.960 Well, except mine.

00:02:01.620 Mine is good.

00:02:02.960 But all those other ones in the other states, they're bad.

00:02:06.060 So as long as people vote for their own incumbent, which they typically do, I don't know that it's going to make that much difference that there's a big generic lead.

00:02:17.060 Because nobody votes for a generic candidate.

00:02:21.560 So I'm going to say this is highly encouraging for Republicans, but I don't think it's predictive in sort of a straight line.

00:02:31.080 I mean, you could have individual match-ups that are more important than the generic feeling of things.

00:02:37.460 If all the candidates who run are, you know, the best Democrat candidate against a second-tier quality Republican, then the Democrats would win everything.

00:02:49.060 I don't think the polls are going to tell you that.

00:02:52.440 Well, apparently the U.S. is getting close to announcing some kind of Iran deal, which the experts say is worse than the last one.

00:03:02.340 Do you believe it?

00:03:04.660 Maybe.

00:03:05.220 I mean, it's easy to believe things got worse just because we have such, you know, bad attitudes about our government.

00:03:11.480 So that's easy to believe.

00:03:13.200 But I don't think we know anything about it.

00:03:17.120 The Iran deal isn't going to be another one of those big confusing black boxes where everybody will think they know something about it, but they don't.

00:03:24.940 They don't know what's going to happen.

00:03:26.180 They don't know if it'll work.

00:03:27.300 They don't know what the details are.

00:03:31.540 But I can't see lifting their terrorist designation.

00:03:35.220 As long as they're still doing terrorist-y things.

00:03:39.880 How in the world can the sanctions be lifted?

00:03:46.260 And how can we not call them a terrorist organization if they act like it?

00:03:50.620 Or are they not acting like it?

00:03:52.180 Has anything changed in Iran, or by Iran's behavior, since Soleimani was killed?

00:04:03.640 I haven't heard anything of you.

00:04:05.500 So I haven't seen any news stories that says, you know, Iran used to do a lot of adventurous stuff, and they still do.

00:04:12.580 I haven't heard that story.

00:04:15.800 But I also haven't heard the story that they stopped doing it.

00:04:22.100 Is it possible that Soleimani was the terrorist part of it?

00:04:27.500 And maybe we just took him out?

00:04:29.060 And maybe the rest of the government wasn't so big on helping other people do stuff in other countries.

00:04:37.700 Maybe.

00:04:39.020 But have you seen any kind of news either way?

00:04:42.180 Because I can't tell you in the last...

00:04:44.980 They bombed our embassy.

00:04:46.200 Do you believe that?

00:04:46.860 Do you believe that?

00:04:51.180 Do you believe that Iran bombed our embassy?

00:04:54.140 Or, I don't think it was an embassy.

00:04:55.880 It was some sort of official structure, though.

00:04:59.320 Do you believe that they bombed our embassy and we just kept talking to them about this deal?

00:05:04.800 I don't.

00:05:06.660 I don't believe that at all.

00:05:08.800 I don't believe that the U.S. knows they bombed our consulate, I guess it was.

00:05:13.280 You believe that they know Iran bombed our consulate and we're just still talking to them about this deal?

00:05:20.360 That doesn't make sense.

00:05:22.500 Does it?

00:05:24.140 You do believe that.

00:05:25.040 All right.

00:05:25.320 A lot of people say yes.

00:05:26.840 That even though they bombed the consulate, we're still talking to them.

00:05:30.900 I mean, it's possible.

00:05:32.400 It's not impossible.

00:05:34.780 But it seems to me that the first thing they would have done is said,

00:05:37.480 let's back off and this isn't the right time.

00:05:44.020 I mean, I think at the very least they would have said,

00:05:46.240 we're going to wait a month before we get serious about this to see if you can stop doing this sort of thing.

00:05:53.380 You can ask your friend.

00:05:54.800 He's right there.

00:05:57.740 Iran said they did it?

00:06:01.260 Well, probably there's a lot about this story we don't understand.

00:06:04.860 Do you think?

00:06:07.720 In fact, I don't think we know enough about the whole Iranian negotiations, or maybe nobody does,

00:06:13.620 to even have a good opinion on it.

00:06:15.800 Because I don't know what Iran's been doing lately.

00:06:18.080 I don't believe the news, just in general.

00:06:22.000 Do you believe the news?

00:06:23.040 If the news told you that Iran bombed the consulate,

00:06:27.240 do you believe it because it was in the news?

00:06:29.060 I mean, it might be true.

00:06:32.000 But I wouldn't believe it because it's in the news.

00:06:35.300 This is exactly the kind of thing that's not true.

00:06:38.540 If you're going to put it in a category,

00:06:40.720 is it in the category of things that usually pan out to be true?

00:06:44.520 Or is it in the general category of things that later you find out,

00:06:47.720 well, that wasn't exactly right.

00:06:49.660 There was more to it.

00:06:51.000 Might have been a military facility there.

00:06:53.520 Who knows?

00:06:54.020 Might have been an accident.

00:06:56.880 Who knows?

00:06:58.640 Yeah, maybe it's true this time.

00:07:00.980 Maybe this is the one.

00:07:02.060 Maybe this is the first true story we got this year.

00:07:04.840 Could be.

00:07:06.400 Could be.

00:07:11.180 So China is apparently doing this balancing act

00:07:14.620 where they're trying to be friendly to Russia

00:07:17.200 but not help them too overtly.

00:07:19.980 And apparently China's done some things

00:07:22.100 which were not exactly good for Russia.

00:07:26.220 But it looks like China's deal is going to be consistent.

00:07:29.640 And I have to say I respect it.

00:07:32.360 I've got to say that the way China handles, 1.00

00:07:36.200 you know, the way they talk about their relations with other countries,

00:07:39.860 they do that well.

00:07:41.380 And they do it consistently.

00:07:43.220 And their message is always the same.

00:07:45.660 We don't want war.

00:07:46.860 We want to be in business.

00:07:47.900 No war. 0.70

00:07:50.520 More trade.

00:07:52.140 And am I wrong that China is very consistent about that?

00:07:55.480 It's like, no, we don't want to be involved in this.

00:07:57.200 We just want to sell you stuff and buy stuff.

00:07:58.960 That's it.

00:08:00.240 So I think that they did the usual China good job of saying,

00:08:05.940 hey, don't get us involved.

00:08:07.360 You know, this isn't our fight.

00:08:09.840 But did you think that China was ever going to

00:08:14.340 actually directly help Russia in the war?

00:08:16.520 How many of you thought China was because our news told us

00:08:20.740 that they were thinking about it, right?

00:08:22.840 Now, how did the news know that they were thinking about it?

00:08:25.500 Was it dozens of intel sources?

00:08:29.800 Is that how we heard?

00:08:31.580 Was it all of our intel sources?

00:08:33.480 I never believed that China was thinking of directly helping militarily

00:08:40.040 or even directly backstopping them to the point where it would be effectively a military assistance.

00:08:48.420 And apparently they're not.

00:08:50.160 The indications are that they're not going to do anything too special for Russia.

00:08:54.620 Now, this might explain why.

00:08:59.120 Even though Russia and China do a lot of business,

00:09:04.400 the total amount of business that China does with Russia is about 2% of China's business.

00:09:10.720 So 2% of China's trade is with Russia.

00:09:13.080 A lot of it is with America and the European Union.

00:09:18.380 So what's good for China is to stay friends with whoever is buying most of their stuff

00:09:23.320 and to maybe be a little ambiguous with somebody who's only a 2% impact.

00:09:29.120 So if you ever thought that China would bet its entire economy

00:09:34.240 to help Russia beat Ukraine, which is not even worth doing,

00:09:40.040 at least from China's point of view, it has no benefit,

00:09:43.380 why would China risk its own economy?

00:09:46.140 Because they know that the sanctions would start to move into anti-China stuff if they do that.

00:09:52.580 Why would they do that?

00:09:53.820 To help Russia conquer Ukraine, of all things. 0.84

00:09:57.620 They couldn't have less interest than that.

00:10:01.460 So I think that was always fake news,

00:10:04.480 and I'm going to say that the intel, if you can call it that,

00:10:08.560 that said that China was going to help Russia,

00:10:11.020 probably was just fake intel again.

00:10:15.160 How many times have you seen that?

00:10:18.540 All right.

00:10:21.820 So the New York Times has confirmed that Hunter's laptop is real.

00:10:27.620 I was a little surprised that that's still a story.

00:10:34.480 I thought everybody knew it was real, but I guess not.

00:10:39.480 Is it really a story that the New York Times says is real?

00:10:42.220 Because I wasn't aware, I mean, obviously, you know, Jen Psaki and Biden and everybody

00:10:49.080 said it was Russian disinformation, but we know Democrats lie,

00:10:53.100 and we know politicians lie.

00:10:55.600 But didn't the public already know this was real?

00:10:58.580 I haven't seen a poll, but was there anybody in the public who thought it wasn't real?

00:11:06.840 I thought they all knew it was real.

00:11:09.060 But maybe I'm surprised.

00:11:10.740 Maybe the mainstream news was so strong with their brainwashing

00:11:15.020 that they actually convinced the public it wasn't real.

00:11:17.660 Did that happen?

00:11:22.020 Yeah, there is a phenomenon, which is that the news doesn't become real

00:11:28.600 until the New York Times says it's real.

00:11:31.220 That's the thing, by the way.

00:11:32.700 If you don't know how the media landscape works,

00:11:36.960 the paper of record, as they like to call it, is in the New York Times.

00:11:41.700 So when the paper of record says it's true,

00:11:44.420 then everybody else can comfortably say it's true.

00:11:47.420 Well, the paper of record says it's true,

00:11:49.980 so that's basically like a fact check.

00:11:53.600 So now they've said it's true.

00:11:57.500 Yeah, and the story was blocked by Facebook, Twitter, and Google.

00:12:02.720 Everything about this story is everything that's wrong with the world,

00:12:06.320 or the country, maybe.

00:12:07.720 Maybe let's just say the country.

00:12:11.700 Let me deal with the...

00:12:17.340 There's a good comment there I wanted to deal with.

00:12:21.140 But remind me to talk about prednisone

00:12:24.780 after I talk about Hunter's laptop.

00:12:28.600 Now, of course, as we look back

00:12:30.560 on how this was presented to the public,

00:12:33.420 we were told that dozens of former Intel officials,

00:12:36.260 I think 50 of them signed a document

00:12:38.100 saying that it was Russian disinformation

00:12:40.760 and rather obviously so.

00:12:43.080 Rather obviously.

00:12:44.660 According to these 50 people who didn't look at it.

00:12:49.020 And now Richard Grinnell tweeted this.

00:12:52.780 A Republican Senate must, in all caps,

00:12:55.860 a good use of all caps in this case,

00:12:58.220 a Republican Senate must hold hearings 0.73

00:13:00.640 with all 50 of the people who signed that letter

00:13:03.600 three weeks before the 2020 campaign.

00:13:06.960 Because the timing...

00:13:08.060 They all said Hunter Biden's laptop was Russian disinformation,

00:13:11.940 and they didn't have a single piece of intel to suggest it.

00:13:16.640 That is correct.

00:13:18.240 I do believe that the Republican Senate

00:13:20.660 should talk to every one of those intel people

00:13:23.000 and say,

00:13:24.420 why did you say this with no information?

00:13:27.240 Was this purely to influence the election?

00:13:30.000 Because it looks like it was purely to influence the election,

00:13:33.440 which would mean that the 2020...

00:13:35.760 or the...

00:13:37.140 Yeah, which would mean the 2020 campaign was rigged

00:13:39.620 by our own intel.

00:13:43.320 Is that too...

00:13:44.560 Is that...

00:13:45.240 Is rigged the wrong word?

00:13:48.680 Because it's corruption.

00:13:49.820 I mean, based on what we could tell,

00:13:53.660 I mean, we...

00:13:54.200 You know, maybe if they testify,

00:13:55.980 they've got some story that is not obvious to any of us,

00:13:59.920 that would suggest that maybe they were legitimately fooled.

00:14:04.820 Legitimately fooled.

00:14:06.680 Do you think they could make that case?

00:14:12.040 What is the definition of rigged?

00:14:14.620 Let me look it up right now.

00:14:17.100 Rigged.

00:14:19.820 Rigged.

00:14:22.160 Because I'm not sure if misinformation gets into that.

00:14:29.380 Okay.

00:14:30.140 To rig, as in crime.

00:14:32.380 Okay.

00:14:33.400 To manage or conduct something fraudulently

00:14:36.080 so as to produce a result of a situation

00:14:38.280 that is advantageous to a particular person.

00:14:42.360 So did somebody manage or conduct

00:14:44.540 something fraudulently?

00:14:49.180 Yes.

00:14:49.820 The news.

00:14:52.640 Yes, the news

00:14:53.780 was managed fraudulently

00:14:57.080 right in front of us

00:14:58.200 to create a situation

00:15:00.860 favorable for one candidate,

00:15:03.320 an advantage,

00:15:04.580 in an election which had great consequences.

00:15:08.160 So yeah,

00:15:09.080 actually, according to the New York Times,

00:15:11.700 the 2020 election was rigged.

00:15:13.320 That's kind of big.

00:15:16.260 Trump was right. 0.50

00:15:16.860 Trump was right. 0.50

00:15:19.800 Now, he wasn't talking about only this.

00:15:23.300 I mean, he had other allegations,

00:15:24.960 which we'll have to wait on some of those,

00:15:27.960 or maybe we'll never know.

00:15:29.020 But if 50 intel people lied to change the result of an election,

00:15:37.040 or at least that would be the presumed intention of that,

00:15:40.760 the 2020 election was rigged,

00:15:44.920 and the paper of record just confirmed it.

00:15:51.300 What do you think of that?

00:15:52.300 But the way I just said it will not be the way the public hears it, right?

00:15:59.080 They're never going to hear that.

00:16:01.880 They're just going to hear

00:16:02.980 with their own team all the time.

00:16:06.120 But yeah, wow.

00:16:07.700 The New York Times confirms that the 2020 election

00:16:10.100 was rigged

00:16:11.080 by the intel,

00:16:13.040 the intel's community.

00:16:17.580 Amazing.

00:16:19.320 But we're so numb to bad behavior

00:16:21.640 at this point,

00:16:22.180 it won't make any difference.

00:16:23.040 Do you remember,

00:16:26.740 speaking of Russian disinformation,

00:16:28.820 or the United States

00:16:30.080 creating disinformation

00:16:31.900 about Russian disinformation,

00:16:34.640 do you remember when Russia

00:16:35.900 spent almost nothing

00:16:37.560 to make a bunch of memes

00:16:40.420 for Facebook

00:16:41.140 that if you saw the memes,

00:16:43.300 and I have,

00:16:44.560 you'd know two things.

00:16:45.720 Number one,

00:16:47.320 you don't know anybody who saw them.

00:16:49.500 They weren't memes you've ever seen.

00:16:51.560 Number two,

00:16:52.100 they looked like were developed

00:16:53.360 by a high school project,

00:16:55.580 meaning that there was nothing

00:16:56.660 about the memes

00:16:57.400 that suggested

00:16:58.100 any kind of persuasion skill whatsoever.

00:17:01.380 Trust me on that.

00:17:02.680 Right?

00:17:02.880 That's sort of my domain.

00:17:04.520 There was no persuasion quality

00:17:06.080 to them whatsoever.

00:17:07.480 And they spent, what,

00:17:08.320 $100,000?

00:17:10.360 Which is nothing.

00:17:12.560 So the whole story

00:17:13.680 about Russian election interference

00:17:15.420 was technically true,

00:17:17.940 but the part they leave out

00:17:19.600 is that it's a little bit

00:17:21.020 like pissing in the ocean.

00:17:23.060 Did Russia piss in the ocean? 0.52

00:17:25.440 True.

00:17:27.240 Did the shoreline show any difference?

00:17:33.020 Not so much.

00:17:34.460 No, not so much.

00:17:36.560 Did the sea level rise

00:17:39.820 when Russia pissed in the ocean? 0.68

00:17:42.300 Technically, yes.

00:17:45.100 Not enough that you could measure.

00:17:47.980 So that's sort of what

00:17:48.980 the Russian election

00:17:49.720 interference was then.

00:17:50.720 And how do we know

00:17:52.400 there was so much

00:17:52.960 Russian interference then?

00:17:55.540 Well, I believe we heard that

00:17:57.020 from plenty of current

00:17:58.340 and former intel officials.

00:18:00.080 Am I right?

00:18:01.360 Current and past intel officials.

00:18:05.300 So pretty much everything

00:18:07.420 we've heard about Russia

00:18:08.380 is disinformation

00:18:09.680 from our own side,

00:18:11.900 often disinformation

00:18:13.060 about their disinformation.

00:18:15.720 Just to complete the picture.

00:18:18.180 So spot the pattern.

00:18:19.860 It's pretty clear

00:18:20.580 that the United States

00:18:21.520 is now completely

00:18:23.080 controlled by its own intel agencies.

00:18:29.980 I just said that

00:18:31.120 like as a matter of fact.

00:18:32.400 Did you like how I did that?

00:18:35.580 I just said the most provocative thing

00:18:37.280 that's ever been said

00:18:38.080 in the United States.

00:18:39.480 But I said it like a matter of fact.

00:18:41.180 And you just said,

00:18:41.780 yeah, that's true.

00:18:43.700 That the United States government

00:18:45.380 is captured by our intel.

00:18:48.000 Now, I have a theory

00:18:49.000 that all governments

00:18:49.900 eventually are captured

00:18:51.140 by their own intelligence agencies.

00:18:53.760 Because it has to happen.

00:18:55.880 Am I wrong?

00:18:58.520 Am I wrong?

00:19:00.180 That if you just take

00:19:01.600 any situation

00:19:02.400 where there's a strong

00:19:03.320 intelligence entity,

00:19:06.520 that if you wait long enough,

00:19:08.620 that intelligence entity

00:19:09.840 will control the government

00:19:11.100 that hired it.

00:19:12.720 Right?

00:19:13.240 I mean, it can't really

00:19:13.960 go any other way.

00:19:15.580 I mean, there's a reason

00:19:16.280 that Putin's in charge

00:19:17.240 of Russia, right?

00:19:20.300 Going from the intel agency

00:19:21.980 to running the country

00:19:22.960 is a pretty direct path

00:19:24.600 in a dictatorship, for sure.

00:19:26.980 Yeah.

00:19:30.760 Yeah, at this point,

00:19:32.160 it does look like

00:19:33.000 the U.S. government

00:19:35.120 is essentially

00:19:36.020 an intelligence agency

00:19:38.100 cutout,

00:19:39.760 or just a puppet.

00:19:41.860 That's what it looks like.

00:19:43.660 Now, I probably get kicked

00:19:45.640 off of social media

00:19:46.440 if I say,

00:19:47.040 I have proof.

00:19:48.340 That's what it is.

00:19:49.360 I'm just saying that

00:19:50.120 based on everything

00:19:50.760 we've seen

00:19:51.320 just in the public domain,

00:19:53.140 that would be

00:19:53.800 the reasonable interpretation.

00:19:57.180 Am I wrong?

00:19:59.340 Who disagrees with me?

00:20:00.900 It's a reasonable interpretation

00:20:02.460 based on public information,

00:20:04.420 no special research needed,

00:20:05.980 that our intel agencies

00:20:08.000 are running the government.

00:20:10.080 Effectively.

00:20:10.920 You know,

00:20:11.120 on anything important.

00:20:13.080 Certainly on anything

00:20:14.060 that involves foreign countries.

00:20:15.800 Maybe far less

00:20:16.820 for domestic stuff.

00:20:18.080 Yeah, let me modify that.

00:20:19.460 I doubt our intel agencies

00:20:20.800 are having much impact,

00:20:22.260 if any,

00:20:22.600 on any domestic policy.

00:20:25.160 Because they don't care.

00:20:27.200 But I think they have

00:20:27.900 a lot of impact,

00:20:28.820 maybe it's the only impact,

00:20:30.620 on foreign relations.

00:20:33.440 So that's my take.

00:20:35.760 All right.

00:20:37.880 So,

00:20:38.740 Trump is right again.

00:20:42.820 Starting to become

00:20:44.060 my best prediction

00:20:44.920 that Trump would look better

00:20:46.140 every day he was out of office.

00:20:48.380 Do you all believe it yet?

00:20:50.160 How many believed me

00:20:51.000 when I said it?

00:20:51.740 Do you remember

00:20:52.840 when I said it

00:20:53.480 in the beginning?

00:20:54.400 I said he would look better

00:20:55.320 every day he's out of office.

00:20:57.760 I'll bet you didn't believe it, right?

00:20:59.920 All right.

00:21:00.340 Let me talk about Predizone.

00:21:03.240 There was a Mike Cernovich tweet today

00:21:05.720 that said,

00:21:06.620 among other things,

00:21:07.800 that Putin has a world view.

00:21:10.340 So if you're just looking at him

00:21:12.420 as a crazy person,

00:21:14.500 you may have been hypnotized

00:21:16.340 or brainwashed by the media.

00:21:17.860 I'm adding that last part.

00:21:19.380 But the point being

00:21:22.280 that listening to Putin,

00:21:26.900 you don't get the sense

00:21:28.120 that he's insane necessarily.

00:21:30.280 He was obviously stressed.

00:21:31.500 But he has a world view

00:21:33.960 that holds together

00:21:35.300 even if you disagree with it.

00:21:37.600 And therefore,

00:21:38.320 he's not operating from insanity.

00:21:40.420 He's operating from

00:21:41.560 a different set of priorities

00:21:43.360 or, you know,

00:21:45.000 a sense of what's important.

00:21:47.960 Now,

00:21:48.640 when Mike Cernovich said

00:21:50.620 in that tweet,

00:21:51.560 he said that

00:21:52.160 if you're thinking

00:21:53.020 that prednisone

00:21:53.840 is the explanation,

00:21:55.600 then you're not

00:21:56.280 a serious person.

00:21:57.620 And I've said

00:21:58.960 that he looks like somebody

00:22:00.040 who could be

00:22:00.640 on some kind of drug

00:22:02.480 and that prednisone

00:22:03.640 would be a good guess.

00:22:06.400 Because prednisone,

00:22:07.780 my experience with it

00:22:08.980 is because I took

00:22:09.860 too much of it

00:22:10.560 in 20,

00:22:11.820 whatever,

00:22:12.500 19.

00:22:13.440 And it just changed

00:22:16.380 my personality.

00:22:17.940 I mean,

00:22:18.160 I could feel it

00:22:18.840 in real time.

00:22:19.780 Those of you

00:22:20.360 who are watching me

00:22:21.020 on live stream,

00:22:21.740 can you confirm,

00:22:23.080 I think you can,

00:22:24.260 can you confirm

00:22:25.020 that when you knew

00:22:25.720 I was on prednisone,

00:22:26.700 because I told you

00:22:27.260 publicly,

00:22:27.620 that I was more

00:22:29.120 aggressive?

00:22:31.500 Can you confirm

00:22:32.920 that?

00:22:34.340 Based on just

00:22:35.040 observation.

00:22:36.100 I mean,

00:22:36.340 you don't know

00:22:36.700 what I'm thinking.

00:22:38.640 But I want to,

00:22:39.280 you know,

00:22:39.460 I know a number

00:22:39.960 of you are going

00:22:40.320 to say yes,

00:22:40.820 but I want those

00:22:41.780 of you who didn't

00:22:42.680 witness it

00:22:43.380 to hear from

00:22:44.660 the ones who did.

00:22:46.020 You saw me every day

00:22:47.320 and you saw me

00:22:47.940 on prednisone

00:22:48.700 and you saw me off

00:22:49.540 and I don't think

00:22:50.500 you could miss

00:22:51.820 the difference.

00:22:53.520 Am I right?

00:22:54.620 The difference

00:22:55.200 wasn't small,

00:22:57.620 the difference

00:22:59.300 was striking

00:23:00.040 and I could feel

00:23:02.240 it in myself.

00:23:03.100 So while you were

00:23:04.200 observing I was

00:23:05.700 different,

00:23:06.320 I could feel it too.

00:23:07.940 I felt it maybe

00:23:09.080 even more strongly

00:23:09.880 than you could

00:23:10.420 observe it.

00:23:11.440 I felt fundamentally

00:23:12.760 like a different

00:23:13.480 person.

00:23:14.420 In other words,

00:23:15.320 even,

00:23:16.960 you know,

00:23:17.180 if I always had

00:23:18.220 that personality

00:23:19.040 that I had

00:23:20.000 under prednisone,

00:23:20.780 I would think

00:23:21.160 I was a different

00:23:21.680 person.

00:23:22.040 But of course,

00:23:24.140 the prednisone

00:23:24.740 goes away

00:23:25.260 and I go back

00:23:26.060 to my normal

00:23:26.700 situation.

00:23:28.920 So I'm going

00:23:30.280 to agree

00:23:32.060 with Cernovich,

00:23:34.400 but I'm going

00:23:36.760 to say this.

00:23:37.940 If you think

00:23:38.740 the entire story

00:23:39.980 is prednisone,

00:23:41.080 you're wrong. 0.83

00:23:42.400 So I agree

00:23:42.920 with him on that.

00:23:44.300 It's not the

00:23:44.880 entire story.

00:23:46.660 You know,

00:23:46.960 I'm not saying

00:23:47.440 that he doesn't

00:23:48.000 have,

00:23:48.760 or that Russia

00:23:49.240 doesn't have

00:23:49.760 some historical

00:23:50.520 claim,

00:23:52.020 you know,

00:23:53.380 claim or interest

00:23:54.500 to Ukraine.

00:23:55.180 That's true.

00:23:55.800 They do.

00:23:56.680 And I'm not going

00:23:57.300 to say that they

00:23:57.800 don't have any

00:23:58.540 military or defense

00:24:00.100 incentive,

00:24:02.100 because they do.

00:24:03.920 Right?

00:24:04.300 I mean,

00:24:04.660 you could,

00:24:05.220 if you were to

00:24:05.880 write on paper,

00:24:07.320 write an essay,

00:24:09.100 try to write it

00:24:10.200 from Putin's

00:24:10.900 point of view,

00:24:12.460 does he have

00:24:13.000 good reasons

00:24:13.700 or just reasons

00:24:14.500 to do what he's

00:24:15.600 doing?

00:24:15.820 I think you could

00:24:17.260 make a case for it.

00:24:18.180 You could make

00:24:19.440 a non-crazy case

00:24:21.180 for what he's

00:24:21.660 doing.

00:24:22.400 It's not working

00:24:23.220 out,

00:24:23.820 so you could say

00:24:24.860 that he's failing.

00:24:25.780 That's a separate

00:24:26.480 question.

00:24:27.460 But he had a reason.

00:24:30.180 Here's the question.

00:24:32.720 If you have a reason

00:24:34.040 to punch somebody,

00:24:35.860 do you always do it?

00:24:38.620 If you have a reason

00:24:39.940 to punch somebody,

00:24:41.440 do you always do it?

00:24:43.300 The answer is no.

00:24:45.220 Now I put you

00:24:46.180 on prednisone,

00:24:46.980 and I give you

00:24:47.980 too much of it.

00:24:49.580 Now you still have

00:24:50.320 the same reason

00:24:50.920 to punch somebody.

00:24:51.680 There's no change.

00:24:53.200 You had the same

00:24:53.840 reason to punch somebody.

00:24:55.400 Now do you take

00:24:55.980 the punch?

00:24:57.940 Maybe.

00:24:59.340 Maybe you do.

00:25:00.980 So definitely

00:25:01.960 I agree with

00:25:03.380 Cernovich that you

00:25:04.320 can't say this is

00:25:05.160 a prednisone only

00:25:07.060 or any drug.

00:25:08.100 You can't say

00:25:08.620 it's a drug only

00:25:09.720 situation.

00:25:10.360 It's not,

00:25:10.920 of course.

00:25:12.200 It's Russia 0.99

00:25:13.320 has a good point.

00:25:15.280 Ukraine has 0.72

00:25:15.900 a good point.

00:25:16.640 That's why

00:25:17.040 there's a war.

00:25:18.220 If they didn't

00:25:19.360 both have

00:25:19.920 a good point,

00:25:21.400 it wouldn't

00:25:22.300 look like this.

00:25:23.680 Now I'm not saying

00:25:24.460 I agree with

00:25:25.120 Russia's point 0.96

00:25:25.800 or agree with

00:25:26.500 Ukraine's.

00:25:27.100 I'm saying that

00:25:27.540 from their

00:25:27.940 points of view,

00:25:29.120 they can make

00:25:29.700 an argument

00:25:30.100 that holds

00:25:30.600 together on paper.

00:25:32.460 Not everybody

00:25:33.160 can do that.

00:25:34.760 I'm just saying

00:25:35.640 that if you add

00:25:36.440 prednisone to

00:25:37.200 any situation

00:25:38.020 that's already

00:25:38.640 tense,

00:25:39.580 it's going to

00:25:40.460 get tenser.

00:25:41.760 It's not going to

00:25:42.580 get more relaxed.

00:25:44.380 So it is

00:25:45.460 possible,

00:25:46.440 but there is

00:25:47.560 no direct

00:25:50.080 evidence that

00:25:50.720 I've seen,

00:25:52.380 it's possible

00:25:53.220 that prednisone

00:25:53.900 is a variable.

00:25:56.040 I would go

00:25:57.200 as high as

00:25:58.280 20%

00:25:59.520 possibility

00:26:00.440 that it's

00:26:01.940 either prednisone

00:26:02.780 or some

00:26:03.500 medication

00:26:04.620 is changing

00:26:06.420 Putin's 0.59

00:26:07.140 personality

00:26:08.860 in his judgment.

00:26:09.960 I'd give

00:26:10.720 it a 20%

00:26:11.440 chance.

00:26:12.720 But I'll tell

00:26:13.420 you,

00:26:13.560 he looks like

00:26:14.240 he's a guy

00:26:14.820 who's different.

00:26:18.480 Yeah,

00:26:18.960 he looks like

00:26:19.860 a guy who's

00:26:20.460 changed.

00:26:21.140 Now,

00:26:21.380 when I say

00:26:22.020 that,

00:26:22.480 I'm not

00:26:22.920 saying that,

00:26:23.620 well,

00:26:24.240 let me be

00:26:25.100 as careful

00:26:25.740 as I can

00:26:26.160 with my

00:26:26.500 words.

00:26:27.140 I'm not

00:26:27.880 intentionally

00:26:28.700 telling you

00:26:30.720 something

00:26:31.080 that I don't

00:26:32.120 believe to be

00:26:32.680 true.

00:26:34.760 In other

00:26:35.360 words,

00:26:35.640 I could be

00:26:36.140 wrong that

00:26:36.860 Putin is on

00:26:37.520 some kind

00:26:37.920 of drug.

00:26:38.360 I could easily

00:26:38.860 be wrong.

00:26:39.960 But I honestly

00:26:40.980 think he is.

00:26:42.500 And I have a

00:26:43.240 strong feeling

00:26:43.880 about it.

00:26:44.880 I have a

00:26:45.240 strong feeling

00:26:46.200 that he's

00:26:47.340 on drugs

00:26:47.920 of some

00:26:48.300 kind that's

00:26:49.360 affecting his

00:26:49.980 behavior and

00:26:51.320 that I can

00:26:51.800 identify it

00:26:52.880 just by his

00:26:53.780 mannerisms and

00:26:54.560 his look.

00:26:55.920 Now,

00:26:56.400 you know that

00:26:56.780 there's a lot

00:26:57.180 of science

00:26:57.760 that says that

00:26:59.500 people can

00:26:59.940 identify people

00:27:00.820 who are sick

00:27:01.380 just by looking

00:27:02.480 at their face.

00:27:03.720 Did you know

00:27:04.120 that?

00:27:05.200 That's an

00:27:05.700 actual thing.

00:27:06.260 It can be

00:27:06.600 tested.

00:27:07.440 Now,

00:27:07.640 people don't

00:27:08.000 get it right

00:27:08.360 every time.

00:27:08.960 But if you

00:27:10.340 showed two

00:27:10.840 faces and

00:27:11.520 one was

00:27:12.160 sick and

00:27:12.560 one wasn't,

00:27:13.860 the humans

00:27:14.820 can pick it

00:27:15.300 up like that

00:27:15.820 because we're

00:27:16.360 designed to

00:27:18.380 identify other

00:27:20.200 humans who are

00:27:20.780 good for

00:27:21.100 reproduction.

00:27:22.480 And you're

00:27:23.060 going to be

00:27:23.300 less likely to

00:27:24.400 want to

00:27:24.800 reproduce with

00:27:25.400 somebody who

00:27:25.760 looks sick

00:27:26.280 than someone

00:27:27.200 who looks

00:27:27.520 healthy.

00:27:27.940 So we

00:27:28.380 can pick

00:27:28.680 out healthy

00:27:29.120 just like

00:27:29.540 that.

00:27:30.140 We're

00:27:30.340 really good

00:27:30.720 at it.

00:27:31.480 And I

00:27:31.800 look at

00:27:32.180 Putin and

00:27:33.380 I say,

00:27:33.980 I don't see

00:27:34.880 health.

00:27:35.160 I see

00:27:36.440 bad

00:27:36.700 health.

00:27:38.380 Doesn't

00:27:38.900 mean I'm

00:27:39.180 right,

00:27:39.980 but humans

00:27:40.520 are good

00:27:40.860 at this.

00:27:41.980 That's the

00:27:42.660 only case

00:27:43.100 I'll make

00:27:43.460 is that we

00:27:44.260 are good

00:27:44.720 at it

00:27:45.160 and he

00:27:45.920 does look

00:27:46.380 sick or

00:27:47.520 something's

00:27:48.540 going on.

00:27:50.860 All right.

00:27:55.400 Why did

00:27:56.200 our intel

00:27:57.040 know that

00:27:57.560 Putin would

00:27:58.040 invade long

00:27:59.160 before he had

00:28:00.820 150,000 people

00:28:02.240 surrounding the

00:28:02.920 country?

00:28:03.540 At that point,

00:28:04.140 it was a

00:28:04.440 little more

00:28:04.740 obvious.

00:28:07.340 But how

00:28:08.820 did our

00:28:09.160 intel get

00:28:09.640 that one

00:28:09.980 so right

00:28:10.660 when they

00:28:11.840 got so

00:28:12.220 many other

00:28:12.600 things wrong?

00:28:14.280 What do

00:28:14.640 you think

00:28:14.820 that is?

00:28:16.600 Now,

00:28:17.280 you're going

00:28:17.940 to say it

00:28:18.620 wasn't hard

00:28:19.280 because Russia

00:28:20.360 had said

00:28:21.900 enough things

00:28:22.740 to indicate

00:28:23.300 it and they

00:28:23.920 had started

00:28:24.560 massing troops.

00:28:25.820 So really,

00:28:26.400 they were just

00:28:26.740 looking at what

00:28:27.220 was happening.

00:28:28.300 So it wasn't

00:28:28.800 that much of a

00:28:29.560 prediction.

00:28:30.880 But I want

00:28:32.000 to give you at

00:28:32.500 least one other

00:28:33.120 possibility.

00:28:34.140 Without

00:28:34.700 evidence,

00:28:36.360 so that there's

00:28:36.960 not any evidence

00:28:37.780 to what I'm

00:28:38.200 going to say,

00:28:39.100 it's just in

00:28:39.700 the possibility

00:28:40.420 set because we

00:28:41.500 don't know

00:28:41.840 what's going

00:28:42.220 on.

00:28:43.260 One of the

00:28:43.680 possibilities is

00:28:45.200 the reason our

00:28:45.880 intel people knew

00:28:46.900 that Russia was 0.63

00:28:47.780 going to invade is

00:28:48.660 that they caused

00:28:49.240 it.

00:28:49.440 Do you know

00:28:51.160 it's a lot

00:28:51.520 easier to predict

00:28:52.660 things that you

00:28:53.520 cause on your

00:28:54.220 own?

00:28:55.340 Have you ever

00:28:55.640 seen me do

00:28:56.120 that?

00:28:57.760 All right,

00:28:58.020 here's an

00:28:58.300 interesting question.

00:28:59.480 For those of you

00:29:00.160 who have been

00:29:00.380 watching me for a

00:29:01.160 long time,

00:29:01.680 have you ever

00:29:03.140 seen me predict

00:29:04.060 something?

00:29:05.640 And then after

00:29:06.200 it came true,

00:29:07.240 you said to

00:29:07.660 yourself,

00:29:08.660 wait a minute,

00:29:09.280 did he predict

00:29:09.880 that or did he

00:29:10.820 cause that to

00:29:11.420 happen?

00:29:12.720 And he knew he

00:29:13.460 was going to

00:29:13.840 cause it to

00:29:14.300 happen,

00:29:14.580 so he just

00:29:14.980 acted like he

00:29:15.520 was predicting

00:29:16.000 it.

00:29:16.780 Have you ever

00:29:17.100 seen me do

00:29:17.520 that?

00:29:21.020 I'm seeing

00:29:21.620 some yeses.

00:29:23.020 You know,

00:29:23.320 you can't be

00:29:23.780 sure,

00:29:24.160 right?

00:29:24.420 Because you'd

00:29:26.020 have to trust

00:29:26.580 me and,

00:29:28.500 you know,

00:29:28.680 you shouldn't

00:29:29.000 trust anybody

00:29:29.860 really.

00:29:31.460 As a general

00:29:32.260 rule,

00:29:32.940 just don't

00:29:33.460 trust anybody.

00:29:36.340 Okay,

00:29:37.020 so during the

00:29:37.600 2016 election

00:29:39.340 cycle,

00:29:40.780 there were

00:29:41.880 things that I

00:29:42.640 did attempt

00:29:43.240 to directly

00:29:43.980 change,

00:29:45.620 and I know

00:29:47.240 things went

00:29:47.700 my way,

00:29:48.640 but it's hard

00:29:49.060 to know how

00:29:49.480 much effect

00:29:49.920 you had.

00:29:51.960 All right,

00:29:52.540 true or

00:29:54.940 false,

00:29:55.640 Russia,

00:29:56.280 as Wall Street

00:29:57.040 Journal is

00:29:57.560 reporting,

00:29:58.440 is Russia,

00:29:59.740 or at least

00:30:00.920 Ukraine,

00:30:01.540 is it becoming

00:30:02.040 a graveyard for

00:30:02.980 Russian tanks?

00:30:04.820 Do you believe

00:30:05.840 the report that

00:30:06.940 400 Russian

00:30:08.260 tanks have been

00:30:09.000 stopped or

00:30:09.740 destroyed by

00:30:11.160 the Ukrainians?

00:30:12.540 Now,

00:30:13.200 400 is a lot

00:30:13.980 of tanks to

00:30:14.600 destroy.

00:30:16.700 We are told

00:30:17.700 that the Russian

00:30:18.660 military advance

00:30:19.580 has stopped in

00:30:20.740 the last day

00:30:21.560 or so.

00:30:22.540 Two days,

00:30:23.060 I think.

00:30:24.020 Now,

00:30:24.440 again,

00:30:24.860 I'm not even

00:30:25.400 sure if that's

00:30:25.940 true.

00:30:26.480 They could be

00:30:27.000 just regrouping.

00:30:28.220 Maybe they're

00:30:28.720 not bogged

00:30:29.200 down at all.

00:30:30.200 Could be

00:30:30.500 anything.

00:30:31.780 But,

00:30:32.840 so as a

00:30:33.760 general rule,

00:30:34.320 I don't believe

00:30:35.120 any of the

00:30:35.700 reports coming

00:30:36.500 out.

00:30:36.720 The only thing

00:30:37.140 you could

00:30:37.420 believe is

00:30:37.920 that Ukraine 0.91

00:30:38.560 is still

00:30:39.160 fighting.

00:30:40.580 Right?

00:30:40.900 They're very

00:30:41.460 basic things

00:30:42.160 you can believe.

00:30:43.200 Yeah,

00:30:43.720 they're still

00:30:44.240 fighting.

00:30:45.380 We know

00:30:45.780 that.

00:30:47.160 I would say

00:30:47.900 at this point

00:30:48.380 that Ukraine 0.91

00:30:48.880 is poised to

00:30:49.720 win the war.

00:30:50.260 And I'll

00:30:52.760 go back to

00:30:53.200 my original

00:30:53.780 prediction.

00:30:54.780 Remember,

00:30:55.260 my worst

00:30:55.740 prediction is,

00:30:57.340 and I kept

00:30:58.080 the prediction

00:30:58.640 long after it

00:30:59.640 was obvious it

00:31:00.940 wasn't going to

00:31:01.420 come true,

00:31:02.100 because I just

00:31:02.520 wanted to be

00:31:02.900 consistent.

00:31:03.320 but I

00:31:04.260 predicted that

00:31:04.920 Russia would 0.98

00:31:05.560 not invade

00:31:06.300 because it

00:31:07.440 would be

00:31:08.000 the worst

00:31:09.420 decision Putin

00:31:10.660 ever made,

00:31:11.280 and it was

00:31:11.580 obviously a

00:31:12.260 bad decision.

00:31:13.640 Now,

00:31:14.020 I believed it

00:31:14.760 because I

00:31:16.820 thought that

00:31:17.320 Russian tanks

00:31:18.020 couldn't survive

00:31:19.420 American technology,

00:31:22.360 meaning the

00:31:23.020 shoulder-mounted

00:31:24.080 stuff and

00:31:25.360 the drones and

00:31:26.280 whatever else we

00:31:27.300 have that you've

00:31:28.000 never even heard

00:31:28.480 of.

00:31:29.240 So I

00:31:29.820 believed that

00:31:30.460 Ukraine would 0.96

00:31:31.200 have enough of

00:31:31.940 the good

00:31:32.320 technology that

00:31:33.580 the Russian

00:31:34.100 tanks would be

00:31:35.400 stopped cold,

00:31:36.380 and that Russia

00:31:37.020 really can't hold

00:31:37.860 the country

00:31:38.260 without tanks.

00:31:39.840 So here are my

00:31:40.720 assumptions.

00:31:42.840 Ukraine would 0.96

00:31:43.740 have enough

00:31:44.380 modern technology,

00:31:45.960 so having enough

00:31:46.760 of it counts.

00:31:47.660 It appears that's

00:31:48.380 going to be the

00:31:48.780 case.

00:31:49.660 I said that their

00:31:51.140 technology to defeat

00:31:52.440 a tank would be 0.53

00:31:53.320 better than the

00:31:53.980 tank technology.

00:31:55.180 That appears to

00:31:56.060 be the case.

00:31:56.600 And I'm going

00:31:58.220 to add to

00:31:58.660 that, I

00:31:59.180 don't know if

00:31:59.500 I said this

00:31:59.940 originally, but

00:32:00.500 I'll add to

00:32:00.980 it, I don't

00:32:02.160 think you can

00:32:02.680 conquer a

00:32:03.160 country without

00:32:03.680 tanks.

00:32:05.420 So they need

00:32:06.480 tanks and

00:32:07.140 they're not

00:32:07.460 going to have

00:32:07.820 them.

00:32:09.880 That tells me

00:32:10.820 that the

00:32:11.200 Ukrainians will 0.98

00:32:11.980 eventually stall

00:32:12.900 their tanks and

00:32:15.740 start picking them

00:32:16.940 off until the

00:32:18.460 Russian army has

00:32:19.200 to dissolve or

00:32:21.540 disappear.

00:32:22.320 So I think

00:32:25.240 that the

00:32:25.840 Ukrainian strategy

00:32:27.760 of going for

00:32:28.460 supply routes and

00:32:30.160 tanks and

00:32:31.520 nothing else, I

00:32:32.580 mean basically you

00:32:33.320 could just go for

00:32:33.880 those, that would 0.79

00:32:35.000 be enough to win

00:32:35.600 the war.

00:32:36.980 So they have the

00:32:37.980 morale, they have

00:32:40.120 the strategy, they've

00:32:41.540 got the

00:32:41.880 communication, they've

00:32:43.380 got the

00:32:43.720 coordination, they've

00:32:45.040 got the satellite

00:32:45.640 view so they can

00:32:46.500 find stuff, they've

00:32:47.880 got the modern

00:32:48.460 equipment that's

00:32:49.200 better than the

00:32:49.820 tanks, in other

00:32:50.580 words they can

00:32:51.000 destroy the tanks,

00:32:52.320 what would ever

00:32:54.500 stop them from

00:32:56.640 losing, I mean

00:32:58.480 Russia from 0.51

00:32:58.960 losing?

00:32:59.740 How in the

00:33:00.240 world, so I'm

00:33:04.080 seeing Richard, I

00:33:06.140 call him Dick,

00:33:07.320 asking if I went

00:33:08.860 to West Point.

00:33:10.560 And I would like

00:33:11.580 to defend my

00:33:12.400 military opinions

00:33:14.760 this way.

00:33:18.060 Rock always beats

00:33:19.380 scissors.

00:33:19.940 scissors.

00:33:21.700 You don't have to

00:33:22.620 be a military

00:33:23.260 expert to know

00:33:25.080 that rock beats

00:33:25.800 scissors.

00:33:27.660 Right?

00:33:28.020 If one side had

00:33:29.120 nuclear weapons and

00:33:30.180 the other had

00:33:30.760 sticks and stones,

00:33:32.560 would you have to

00:33:33.240 be a military

00:33:33.840 expert to predict

00:33:35.360 who would win if,

00:33:36.540 let's say, they all

00:33:37.180 used all of their

00:33:37.860 weapons?

00:33:38.620 Probably not.

00:33:39.780 You don't have to

00:33:40.440 be a military

00:33:41.060 expert to know

00:33:42.600 that there is

00:33:43.480 some number of

00:33:44.640 handheld anti-tank

00:33:46.160 weapons that is

00:33:48.040 enough to defeat

00:33:49.480 a given quantity

00:33:50.920 of tanks.

00:33:51.840 Wouldn't you

00:33:52.200 agree with that?

00:33:54.080 That given a

00:33:54.840 certain number

00:33:56.000 of tanks,

00:33:57.040 it's only a

00:33:58.200 question of how

00:33:58.780 many people with

00:33:59.600 handheld shoulder

00:34:00.580 mounts there

00:34:01.780 are.

00:34:02.640 That's the only

00:34:03.180 question.

00:34:04.080 If there are

00:34:04.500 enough of them,

00:34:05.060 then the tanks

00:34:05.580 all go away. 0.88

00:34:07.140 Now, I've heard

00:34:08.180 much said about

00:34:09.060 the Russians' 0.98

00:34:09.920 lack of

00:34:10.660 coordination of

00:34:11.460 forces.

00:34:11.780 So, if you've

00:34:13.800 got a tank

00:34:14.560 formation, you

00:34:16.280 need to support

00:34:16.920 it with, what

00:34:19.360 do you call it,

00:34:19.700 infantry?

00:34:20.840 You need to

00:34:21.520 support it with

00:34:21.960 air cover.

00:34:22.640 And apparently

00:34:23.080 they're not doing

00:34:23.760 a good job of

00:34:24.560 supporting it.

00:34:26.220 I don't know

00:34:27.060 that that's going

00:34:27.720 to help them.

00:34:29.360 How much would

00:34:30.340 air support help

00:34:32.020 to stop two

00:34:33.980 Ukrainians with a 1.00

00:34:35.260 shoulder-mounted

00:34:35.960 rocket?

00:34:37.160 Do you stop that

00:34:38.180 with air support?

00:34:38.760 I can't imagine

00:34:42.380 that would be a

00:34:42.880 thing.

00:34:43.840 Can you find two

00:34:44.740 people in a

00:34:45.360 forest with air

00:34:47.060 support?

00:34:50.080 I mean, you can

00:34:50.840 hear the jet

00:34:51.320 coming, so you

00:34:52.060 just stand next to

00:34:52.960 a tree when it

00:34:53.540 goes over, right?

00:34:55.000 It just seems to

00:34:55.940 me that there are

00:34:57.260 some things that

00:34:57.860 are so plainly

00:34:58.600 obvious you don't

00:34:59.280 need to be a

00:34:59.800 military expert to

00:35:00.820 know.

00:35:01.940 If I said to

00:35:02.820 you, the United

00:35:04.020 States is going to

00:35:05.420 enter the war,

00:35:06.820 would you wonder

00:35:07.780 if our warthogs

00:35:10.820 could take out

00:35:11.460 the Russian

00:35:12.700 columns of, no,

00:35:15.020 you wouldn't

00:35:15.400 wonder that.

00:35:16.680 That's just rock

00:35:18.120 beats scissors,

00:35:19.660 right?

00:35:20.300 One weapon is

00:35:21.200 better than the

00:35:21.660 other weapon,

00:35:22.080 that's all it is.

00:35:23.300 So I don't think

00:35:24.180 you have to be

00:35:24.640 much of a

00:35:25.260 military genius to

00:35:26.380 know that rock

00:35:26.880 beats scissors

00:35:28.220 every time.

00:35:29.980 And I think

00:35:30.560 that's what we

00:35:31.060 have.

00:35:31.700 They need tanks, 0.74

00:35:33.480 they're not going

00:35:34.080 to have them.

00:35:35.660 Am I right?

00:35:36.140 Let's take it

00:35:37.820 down to that

00:35:38.600 level and see

00:35:39.460 if I'm wrong.

00:35:40.460 They can't

00:35:41.240 conquer the

00:35:42.460 cities and hold

00:35:43.440 them without

00:35:43.820 tanks, and

00:35:44.820 they won't have

00:35:45.360 them.

00:35:46.320 I think that's

00:35:47.140 it.

00:35:47.480 That's the end

00:35:47.920 of the war.

00:35:49.460 You know, as

00:35:50.160 long as the

00:35:50.640 Ukrainians have 1.00

00:35:51.200 food, and it

00:35:52.740 looks like that's

00:35:54.320 happening, I

00:35:55.660 think they just

00:35:57.280 keep fighting.

00:35:58.360 I think Russia's 0.99

00:35:59.060 got to figure out

00:35:59.720 how to get out

00:36:00.480 of there.

00:36:02.700 All right, there

00:36:03.580 was a deep fake

00:36:04.360 Putin.

00:36:04.740 Putin, I'm

00:36:05.620 wondering why

00:36:06.080 there haven't

00:36:06.360 been more of

00:36:06.860 those.

00:36:07.540 Apparently, the

00:36:08.280 deep fake Putin

00:36:10.340 was saying that

00:36:11.120 Russia surrenders 0.75

00:36:12.240 or something.

00:36:14.820 So we're not

00:36:15.560 quite at the

00:36:16.200 point where the

00:36:17.100 deep fake isn't

00:36:17.920 a little bit

00:36:18.460 obvious when you

00:36:19.080 look at it, but

00:36:21.040 it's really close.

00:36:23.000 And I would

00:36:23.460 guess that if our

00:36:25.120 government tried to

00:36:26.000 make a deep fake,

00:36:26.900 it would look just

00:36:27.500 like the real

00:36:28.000 thing.

00:36:28.880 Whereas some

00:36:29.980 person with a

00:36:31.080 computer tries to

00:36:31.860 make one, it's

00:36:32.640 still pretty good,

00:36:33.480 but it's not

00:36:35.340 like a

00:36:35.700 counterfeit bill.

00:36:36.920 The United

00:36:37.520 States can make

00:36:38.280 a $20 bill that's

00:36:41.140 got all the

00:36:41.560 technology in it and

00:36:42.720 it's hard to

00:36:43.360 counterfeit.

00:36:44.620 But a person can't

00:36:46.040 usually do that.

00:36:47.360 So what happens

00:36:47.940 when governments

00:36:48.600 get involved making

00:36:49.560 deep fakes?

00:36:51.420 Back in the

00:36:52.200 bin Laden times,

00:36:54.280 when I thought we

00:36:55.240 had enough technology

00:36:56.060 to do it, I

00:36:56.700 thought we should

00:36:57.380 be doing that

00:36:58.040 because nobody

00:36:58.920 knows where bin

00:36:59.760 Laden is.

00:37:00.320 everybody seems

00:37:01.600 to be taking

00:37:02.220 directions from

00:37:04.080 it.

00:37:04.760 We should create

00:37:05.480 a deep fake,

00:37:06.980 and so nobody

00:37:07.720 knows if they're

00:37:08.280 getting the real

00:37:08.780 bin Laden or 0.70

00:37:09.380 the deep fake.

00:37:10.660 In fact, we

00:37:11.180 should make more

00:37:11.660 deep fakes than

00:37:12.300 real ones, so

00:37:13.600 every time you

00:37:14.160 got some bin

00:37:15.120 Laden information,

00:37:16.040 you'd be like,

00:37:16.520 I don't know,

00:37:17.920 maybe, can't

00:37:19.660 tell.

00:37:22.340 That's what I

00:37:22.980 would have done,

00:37:23.680 but maybe the

00:37:24.200 technology wasn't

00:37:24.900 there.

00:37:26.700 Well, the

00:37:27.240 hacker group

00:37:27.740 anonymous, as a

00:37:29.320 you know, renewed

00:37:30.580 their call for

00:37:31.520 all hackers to

00:37:32.380 attack Russia 0.94

00:37:34.040 for their

00:37:34.600 inhumane war

00:37:35.860 on Ukraine.

00:37:37.640 Are you

00:37:38.440 wondering why

00:37:39.280 the lights are

00:37:40.020 still on in

00:37:40.740 Kiev, and

00:37:41.820 are you

00:37:43.160 wondering why

00:37:43.700 the Russian

00:37:44.380 so-called

00:37:45.300 their great

00:37:46.900 cyber capabilities

00:37:48.580 have made no

00:37:49.280 difference at

00:37:49.780 all?

00:37:50.860 Is it my

00:37:51.780 imagination, or

00:37:53.000 did the cyber

00:37:53.840 abilities of

00:37:54.780 Russia turn out 0.90

00:37:56.720 to be completely

00:37:57.620 irrelevant?

00:37:59.320 I think we

00:38:09.500 have a big

00:38:09.800 question mark

00:38:10.380 about all

00:38:10.780 those cyber

00:38:12.820 capabilities that

00:38:13.720 seem to

00:38:14.080 disappear.

00:38:15.920 All right,

00:38:16.420 I believe

00:38:19.620 that is all

00:38:20.540 the fun

00:38:20.900 news, and

00:38:23.220 did I miss

00:38:25.260 anything?

00:38:25.520 you know, I

00:38:27.860 looked at

00:38:28.280 CNN, as

00:38:29.000 soon as I

00:38:29.320 saw on

00:38:29.680 Twitter, all

00:38:30.620 the noise

00:38:31.560 about the

00:38:32.060 laptop being

00:38:32.880 confirmed, I

00:38:34.480 immediately went

00:38:35.080 to CNN to

00:38:36.860 see how they

00:38:37.420 covered the

00:38:38.280 fact that their

00:38:39.040 news had been

00:38:39.660 wrong for

00:38:40.860 years on a

00:38:42.380 really important

00:38:43.180 story.

00:38:45.060 I don't think

00:38:46.080 they mentioned

00:38:46.480 it.

00:38:48.160 Can you

00:38:48.580 confirm that?

00:38:49.500 Does anybody

00:38:49.940 have another

00:38:50.440 page open?

00:38:51.200 go look at

00:38:52.260 CNN.

00:38:54.960 I don't

00:38:55.820 believe that

00:38:57.520 they're even

00:38:57.960 mentioning that

00:38:58.640 the New York

00:38:59.000 Times confirmed

00:38:59.740 it's real.

00:39:04.820 There's a

00:39:05.440 Putin rally.

00:39:10.260 What do I

00:39:10.960 think will

00:39:11.280 happen with

00:39:11.720 the Hunter

00:39:12.020 situation?

00:39:13.120 I think the

00:39:13.780 Hunter situation

00:39:14.560 will be

00:39:15.440 investigated until

00:39:18.880 Joe Biden's

00:39:19.740 end of office.

00:39:21.200 So I think

00:39:21.800 the Biden

00:39:22.220 administration

00:39:22.860 as it stands

00:39:23.640 will never

00:39:24.140 have to

00:39:24.500 answer for

00:39:25.060 it.

00:39:26.760 And then

00:39:27.480 after he's

00:39:28.180 out of

00:39:28.440 office, he'll

00:39:29.140 still have

00:39:29.620 lots of

00:39:30.140 connections.

00:39:31.300 There'll be

00:39:31.640 some kind

00:39:32.280 of a

00:39:33.640 Jussie

00:39:34.720 Smollett

00:39:35.400 kind of a

00:39:36.540 situation

00:39:36.980 where maybe

00:39:38.780 justice acts

00:39:40.000 but when it's

00:39:41.540 done, Hunter

00:39:42.980 serves 10

00:39:43.600 days in jail

00:39:44.280 and suspended

00:39:46.080 sentence or

00:39:46.760 something.

00:39:47.480 I feel like

00:39:48.380 something will

00:39:49.740 happen that's

00:39:50.680 nothing.

00:39:51.920 Because they

00:39:52.460 can't do

00:39:52.780 nothing,

00:39:53.220 nothing.

00:39:53.920 They have to

00:39:54.540 do something.

00:39:55.520 But they

00:39:55.980 can't do

00:39:56.360 something that

00:39:56.880 matters, so

00:39:57.920 they have to

00:39:58.280 do something

00:39:58.740 that's nothing,

00:39:59.680 like with

00:40:00.140 Jussie.

00:40:01.320 Well, you're

00:40:02.500 going to jail.

00:40:03.060 Well, not

00:40:03.380 really going to

00:40:04.080 jail.

00:40:05.300 And by going

00:40:05.820 to jail, I

00:40:06.360 mean you'll

00:40:06.700 not go to

00:40:07.220 jail.

00:40:08.280 That sort of

00:40:08.980 thing.

00:40:09.980 Now, one of

00:40:10.720 the things that

00:40:11.180 Hunter apparently

00:40:11.900 did is he

00:40:13.500 paid a million

00:40:14.120 dollars of

00:40:14.640 taxes after it

00:40:16.440 was due.

00:40:16.820 But you

00:40:17.820 don't really

00:40:18.400 go to jail

00:40:19.060 too often,

00:40:20.540 even for not

00:40:21.260 paying taxes,

00:40:22.600 if you

00:40:23.020 voluntarily paid

00:40:24.020 them before

00:40:24.880 you got to

00:40:26.040 court.

00:40:27.240 So apparently

00:40:27.900 juries and

00:40:29.140 judges, they

00:40:30.440 look more

00:40:31.660 leniently on

00:40:32.520 somebody who

00:40:32.960 has paid their

00:40:33.500 bills.

00:40:34.600 If you

00:40:35.240 haven't paid

00:40:35.740 your bills,

00:40:36.220 then maybe

00:40:36.600 you go to

00:40:36.960 jail.

00:40:37.140 But if you

00:40:37.700 have paid

00:40:38.080 your bills,

00:40:38.800 you just

00:40:39.420 didn't do it

00:40:39.860 on time,

00:40:40.500 that's not

00:40:41.940 too different

00:40:42.900 than a lot

00:40:43.640 of America.

00:40:44.920 So if it

00:40:47.620 turned out his

00:40:48.180 only problem

00:40:48.880 was taxes,

00:40:50.080 he doesn't

00:40:50.580 have a

00:40:50.880 problem.

00:40:52.500 It's the

00:40:53.180 other stuff

00:40:53.740 that might

00:40:54.540 be the

00:40:54.780 problem.

00:40:55.880 And I

00:40:56.180 don't know

00:40:56.440 if there's

00:40:56.740 going to

00:40:56.900 be a

00:40:57.320 smoking gun.

00:40:59.800 Or would

00:41:00.140 you say

00:41:00.420 there's already

00:41:00.940 a smoking

00:41:01.500 gun?

00:41:03.120 I don't

00:41:03.380 know, it's

00:41:03.600 like a

00:41:03.940 pre-smoking

00:41:04.580 gun.

00:41:06.200 It's like I

00:41:06.700 can see how

00:41:07.380 it might be

00:41:08.020 a smoking

00:41:08.460 gun, but

00:41:08.960 it's not

00:41:09.220 quite a

00:41:09.680 smoking gun.

00:41:10.280 If you

00:41:10.580 know what

00:41:10.800 I mean.

00:41:11.680 Because the

00:41:12.260 stuff that

00:41:12.640 I've seen

00:41:13.120 from Hunter

00:41:14.260 is definitely

00:41:16.040 eyebrows go

00:41:17.700 all the way

00:41:18.060 up to your

00:41:18.360 forehead.

00:41:18.880 Like, what?

00:41:20.400 10% for the

00:41:21.440 big guy?

00:41:22.080 What?

00:41:23.240 I mean, it

00:41:23.640 sounds like

00:41:24.540 the worst

00:41:24.980 possible thing.

00:41:27.180 But we'll

00:41:28.100 find out.

00:41:28.960 Or we won't.

00:41:29.920 Maybe we'll

00:41:30.440 never find out.

00:41:32.400 But I'd

00:41:32.860 certainly like

00:41:33.340 to get to

00:41:36.120 the bottom

00:41:36.420 of it.

00:41:38.540 Now,

00:41:38.980 watching how

00:41:40.320 the news

00:41:40.940 handles the

00:41:42.120 fake news,

00:41:43.520 it's probably

00:41:45.300 the most

00:41:45.660 frustrating thing

00:41:46.500 I do.

00:41:47.900 Because if

00:41:49.140 they wait

00:41:49.580 long enough,

00:41:50.280 they can just

00:41:50.980 correct their

00:41:51.720 story, but

00:41:52.960 the story no

00:41:53.640 longer is

00:41:54.160 salient.

00:41:55.820 People have

00:41:56.240 just moved

00:41:56.660 on with what

00:41:57.340 they're interested

00:41:57.900 in.

00:41:58.620 So they can

00:41:59.400 just keep the

00:42:00.080 fake news

00:42:00.540 going for

00:42:01.080 years,

00:42:02.380 reverse it

00:42:02.980 whenever nobody's

00:42:03.980 paying much

00:42:04.520 attention,

00:42:04.940 and get

00:42:06.700 away with

00:42:07.060 it completely.

00:42:11.180 Accused of

00:42:11.720 money laundering.

00:42:12.720 Well, we'll

00:42:13.120 see if they

00:42:13.480 can prove

00:42:13.820 that.

00:42:14.880 You know,

00:42:15.060 remember,

00:42:16.000 for all we

00:42:17.460 want to

00:42:17.860 criticize Hunter

00:42:19.080 for,

00:42:20.460 he was

00:42:21.400 a Yale,

00:42:23.760 was he a

00:42:24.480 Yale-trained

00:42:25.780 lawyer?

00:42:27.020 Do I have

00:42:27.380 that right?

00:42:27.760 Yale?

00:42:29.580 Now, he

00:42:30.180 might have

00:42:30.960 gotten in

00:42:31.420 because his

00:42:31.900 father was

00:42:32.540 Joe Biden

00:42:33.580 or something,

00:42:34.340 but I

00:42:34.820 suspect that

00:42:35.700 Hunter Biden

00:42:36.180 is legitimately

00:42:36.980 quite smart.

00:42:38.880 Do you

00:42:39.400 think that's

00:42:39.760 not true?

00:42:40.420 I mean,

00:42:40.660 he's got his

00:42:41.080 issues,

00:42:42.040 no question,

00:42:43.140 but in

00:42:43.560 terms of

00:42:43.980 if you gave

00:42:44.680 him an IQ

00:42:45.200 test,

00:42:46.400 I think he'd

00:42:46.900 do really

00:42:47.260 well.

00:42:48.600 I think.

00:42:49.380 You don't

00:42:49.880 go to Yale

00:42:50.420 and get a

00:42:51.060 degree without

00:42:52.300 being a little

00:42:52.820 bit smart.

00:42:53.300 and he's

00:43:02.840 an artist

00:43:03.180 of sorts.

00:43:06.280 All right.

00:43:09.340 Anyway,

00:43:10.040 keep an eye

00:43:10.700 on that.

00:43:11.660 Keep an eye

00:43:12.200 on that.

00:43:12.740 All right,

00:43:12.960 here's my

00:43:13.300 favorite story

00:43:13.860 of the day.

00:43:14.700 Arnold,

00:43:15.460 did you see

00:43:16.000 Arnold Schwarzenegger's

00:43:17.040 video in which

00:43:18.040 he tried to

00:43:18.500 talk directly

00:43:19.040 to the Russian

00:43:19.520 people?

00:43:19.840 And I

00:43:21.440 gave it a

00:43:22.200 100% rating

00:43:24.280 for persuasion.

00:43:26.720 I'll tell you,

00:43:28.460 I've always

00:43:29.320 liked Arnold.

00:43:31.420 And Arnold

00:43:32.240 is one of the

00:43:33.020 best communicators,

00:43:34.700 which is ironic

00:43:35.600 because, you know,

00:43:36.280 he's got the

00:43:36.660 accent.

00:43:37.700 But Arnold

00:43:38.660 has been one

00:43:39.180 of the best

00:43:39.660 communicators

00:43:40.520 in political

00:43:42.440 or any life.

00:43:44.440 He's just

00:43:45.040 the best.

00:43:45.940 I mean,

00:43:46.260 really,

00:43:47.540 he's better

00:43:48.260 than Trump.

00:43:49.840 Now,

00:43:50.480 Trump's more

00:43:50.920 provocative,

00:43:51.700 so maybe he

00:43:52.160 can get more

00:43:52.560 attention.

00:43:53.320 But in terms

00:43:53.900 of actual

00:43:55.000 persuasion

00:43:55.720 skill,

00:43:57.740 yeah,

00:43:57.980 he's better

00:43:58.360 than Trump.

00:43:59.120 And I don't

00:43:59.480 say that lightly.

00:44:01.380 That's like

00:44:01.940 a big deal.

00:44:03.720 Here's what

00:44:04.280 he did right.

00:44:05.400 Now,

00:44:05.700 first of all,

00:44:06.180 let me acknowledge

00:44:07.000 I saw some

00:44:07.780 pushback on it

00:44:08.580 when I said

00:44:09.120 it was good.

00:44:10.240 A number

00:44:10.620 of people

00:44:10.920 said I

00:44:11.280 turned it

00:44:11.700 off when

00:44:12.740 he said

00:44:13.100 that the

00:44:13.500 January 6th

00:44:14.360 thing was

00:44:14.960 actually an

00:44:15.700 attempt to

00:44:16.200 overthrow the

00:44:16.700 government.

00:44:18.160 Now,

00:44:18.460 I don't

00:44:18.820 believe

00:44:19.200 January 6th

00:44:20.240 was an

00:44:20.640 attempt to

00:44:21.120 overthrow the

00:44:21.660 government.

00:44:22.320 To me,

00:44:22.640 that's obvious

00:44:23.240 fake news.

00:44:25.100 But Arnold

00:44:27.300 wasn't talking

00:44:28.080 to you.

00:44:29.480 He didn't

00:44:29.820 make the

00:44:30.160 video for

00:44:30.660 you.

00:44:31.840 Arnold made

00:44:32.360 a video in

00:44:33.120 which he

00:44:33.420 wanted to

00:44:34.020 demonstrate his

00:44:35.360 credibility

00:44:36.060 before he told

00:44:37.620 the Russian

00:44:38.020 people something

00:44:38.880 that was hard

00:44:39.780 to understand

00:44:40.600 and hear

00:44:41.080 based on the

00:44:42.440 propaganda

00:44:42.880 they've gotten

00:44:43.440 so far.

00:44:43.920 So what

00:44:45.380 Arnold did

00:44:46.140 was perfect

00:44:46.820 technique.

00:44:48.520 He showed

00:44:49.240 how much

00:44:49.580 he loves

00:44:50.120 the Russian

00:44:50.660 people and

00:44:51.260 is connected

00:44:51.840 to them

00:44:52.260 with a

00:44:52.580 personal

00:44:52.940 anecdote

00:44:53.360 of a

00:44:54.440 Russian

00:44:54.700 weightlifter

00:44:55.180 who changed

00:44:55.740 his life

00:44:56.220 and he

00:44:56.460 still drinks

00:44:56.920 out of the

00:44:57.240 same cup

00:44:57.720 of coffee

00:44:58.640 that this

00:44:59.100 guy gave

00:44:59.540 him years

00:44:59.880 ago.

00:45:00.400 And he

00:45:00.760 actually

00:45:00.980 shows you

00:45:01.440 the cup

00:45:01.780 of coffee,

00:45:02.680 the actual

00:45:03.040 cup.

00:45:04.560 And he

00:45:04.780 says,

00:45:05.000 I've been

00:45:05.200 drinking out

00:45:05.640 of this

00:45:05.820 for years

00:45:06.380 because it

00:45:07.160 was given

00:45:07.420 to me

00:45:07.760 by my

00:45:08.140 good friend.

00:45:08.640 And he

00:45:08.760 shows the

00:45:09.080 pictures of

00:45:09.560 the

00:45:09.660 weightlifter.

00:45:11.260 Have I

00:45:11.880 told you

00:45:12.360 that visual

00:45:13.500 persuasion

00:45:14.140 is the

00:45:14.600 good stuff?

00:45:16.000 Oh my

00:45:16.640 God.

00:45:17.960 Arnold took

00:45:18.680 the visual

00:45:19.220 persuasion

00:45:19.880 from actually

00:45:21.040 showing the

00:45:21.760 bodybuilder.

00:45:23.040 Then he

00:45:23.340 talked about

00:45:23.920 the fight

00:45:25.020 he had

00:45:25.320 with his

00:45:25.660 dad who

00:45:26.760 didn't like

00:45:27.240 Russians

00:45:27.580 because he'd

00:45:28.080 been in

00:45:28.340 World War II

00:45:28.860 and his

00:45:29.900 dad wanted

00:45:30.360 to take

00:45:30.820 the Russian

00:45:31.260 off the

00:45:31.600 wall when

00:45:31.980 Arnold was

00:45:32.880 a kid

00:45:33.140 and Arnold

00:45:33.920 refused.

00:45:35.540 Arnold was

00:45:36.360 going to

00:45:36.580 support the

00:45:37.100 Russian guy.

00:45:38.140 Now you've

00:45:38.400 got the

00:45:38.740 visual

00:45:39.560 of him

00:45:40.300 meeting the

00:45:41.420 bodybuilder

00:45:42.040 and he

00:45:42.240 shows the

00:45:42.600 picture.

00:45:43.620 You've got

00:45:43.980 the visual

00:45:44.600 in your

00:45:45.020 mind of

00:45:45.880 a young

00:45:46.320 Arnold

00:45:46.640 with a

00:45:47.220 poster on

00:45:47.680 the wall

00:45:47.980 and then

00:45:48.820 he ends

00:45:49.200 it with

00:45:49.480 the visual

00:45:49.980 of actually

00:45:50.620 holding the

00:45:51.560 coffee cup

00:45:52.100 that that

00:45:52.460 guy gave

00:45:52.920 him.

00:45:54.820 What do

00:45:55.420 I say

00:45:55.740 about visual

00:45:56.500 persuasion?

00:45:57.960 It's the

00:45:58.320 best.

00:45:58.980 I mean

00:45:59.140 fear is

00:45:59.600 the strongest.

00:46:01.060 If you

00:46:01.380 have fear

00:46:01.880 persuasion

00:46:02.360 you can't

00:46:02.760 beat that.

00:46:03.520 But without

00:46:04.000 that the

00:46:05.380 best one

00:46:05.960 is visual.

00:46:07.820 And man

00:46:08.460 did he

00:46:08.740 nail the

00:46:09.240 visual.

00:46:10.100 He nailed

00:46:10.660 it.

00:46:11.300 Here's the

00:46:11.660 other thing

00:46:12.000 I teach

00:46:12.360 you.

00:46:13.440 You have

00:46:13.900 to pace

00:46:14.480 people before

00:46:15.220 you can

00:46:15.640 lead them.

00:46:16.720 You have

00:46:17.280 to agree

00:46:17.740 with them

00:46:18.200 before you

00:46:18.680 can change

00:46:19.100 their mind.

00:46:20.480 He did

00:46:20.900 it masterfully

00:46:21.880 including,

00:46:23.280 and I know

00:46:23.680 you don't

00:46:23.960 like this,

00:46:25.360 sorry,

00:46:26.720 the January

00:46:27.300 6th part.

00:46:28.780 If you

00:46:29.300 don't think

00:46:29.720 that was

00:46:30.160 good persuasion

00:46:30.980 because it's

00:46:32.280 untrue,

00:46:33.060 you're on

00:46:34.140 the wrong

00:46:34.460 conversation.

00:46:35.040 I'm not

00:46:36.100 saying he

00:46:36.500 was right.

00:46:37.760 I'm saying

00:46:38.240 that if he

00:46:38.800 was talking

00:46:39.160 to a

00:46:39.520 Russian

00:46:39.800 public and

00:46:41.300 he says,

00:46:41.720 look, you

00:46:42.360 can trust

00:46:42.820 me, I'll

00:46:43.620 be even

00:46:43.900 throwing my

00:46:44.400 own party

00:46:44.980 under the

00:46:45.340 bus.

00:46:45.860 Remember, he's

00:46:46.300 a Republican.

00:46:47.820 Arnold's a

00:46:48.300 Republican who's

00:46:49.920 throwing other

00:46:50.520 Republicans under

00:46:51.340 the bus.

00:46:52.160 He's saying,

00:46:52.580 look, I'm

00:46:53.540 throwing Republicans

00:46:54.340 under the bus,

00:46:55.080 you can see me

00:46:55.600 do it right

00:46:55.980 now.

00:46:56.180 Now, that

00:46:59.500 makes him

00:46:59.900 wrong about

00:47:00.500 January 6th,

00:47:01.500 in my opinion.

00:47:02.220 But it

00:47:03.720 does make

00:47:04.180 him a

00:47:04.840 really good

00:47:05.320 persuader.

00:47:06.520 Because he's

00:47:07.120 trying to

00:47:07.620 establish his

00:47:08.400 credibility.

00:47:10.160 And let

00:47:11.140 me ask you

00:47:11.480 another thing.

00:47:13.540 Is Arnold

00:47:14.280 Schwarzenegger

00:47:15.060 famous for

00:47:16.200 telling it

00:47:17.380 straight,

00:47:18.300 or is he

00:47:19.260 famous for

00:47:19.840 lying?

00:47:22.080 What do

00:47:22.820 you think?

00:47:23.540 Just your

00:47:24.080 own opinion.

00:47:25.460 Is Arnold

00:47:26.340 famous for

00:47:27.200 lying, or

00:47:28.560 famous for

00:47:29.140 being pretty

00:47:29.760 much a

00:47:30.080 straight shooter?

00:47:30.580 I think

00:47:32.600 he's famous

00:47:33.020 for being

00:47:33.380 a straight

00:47:33.720 shooter.

00:47:35.380 I mean,

00:47:35.720 maybe some

00:47:37.200 story I don't

00:47:37.820 know about,

00:47:38.800 but I don't

00:47:39.360 think he's

00:47:39.740 ever been

00:47:40.200 accused of

00:47:40.960 not giving

00:47:41.580 you his

00:47:41.900 honest opinion,

00:47:43.520 even if he

00:47:44.240 didn't like

00:47:44.660 it.

00:47:45.400 So even the

00:47:45.940 January 6th

00:47:46.600 stuff, I

00:47:46.960 kind of hate,

00:47:47.960 but I do

00:47:48.380 love his

00:47:48.780 transparency.

00:47:50.960 I love the

00:47:51.760 fact that his

00:47:52.240 opinion is

00:47:52.800 very clear,

00:47:54.200 and he said

00:47:54.960 it, and it

00:47:55.300 was against

00:47:55.680 the grain,

00:47:56.360 and, you

00:47:57.660 know, okay.

00:47:59.220 I don't agree

00:47:59.900 with it, but I

00:48:00.420 respect it

00:48:00.980 completely.

00:48:02.040 Now, I

00:48:02.680 think that

00:48:03.140 this is a

00:48:03.600 bigger deal

00:48:04.140 than maybe

00:48:04.900 you think,

00:48:06.160 because,

00:48:06.960 correct me if

00:48:07.440 I'm wrong,

00:48:07.880 but I'll bet

00:48:08.260 Arnold is

00:48:08.880 really popular

00:48:09.700 in the Russian

00:48:11.080 public, am

00:48:12.040 I right?

00:48:12.520 You know,

00:48:12.800 above a certain

00:48:13.460 age, and

00:48:13.980 that's probably

00:48:15.020 what he's

00:48:15.340 targeting.

00:48:17.240 I would

00:48:17.840 guess, because

00:48:18.540 he's made

00:48:19.000 movies with,

00:48:19.860 you know,

00:48:20.080 Russian elements

00:48:20.880 in it, I

00:48:21.260 think he's,

00:48:21.980 and he's an

00:48:22.380 action figure,

00:48:23.180 so those

00:48:23.520 always play

00:48:24.040 bigger overseas.

00:48:25.520 So I would

00:48:26.300 guess that Arnold

00:48:26.920 is maybe just

00:48:27.900 about the exact

00:48:28.780 perfect person,

00:48:29.860 because he's

00:48:30.420 not just a

00:48:31.140 star, he's

00:48:32.440 also a

00:48:33.120 legitimate

00:48:33.460 political figure

00:48:34.700 in America.

00:48:36.900 And when he

00:48:37.340 talked to the

00:48:37.940 Russian people,

00:48:39.000 he did a

00:48:39.640 really good

00:48:40.380 job of

00:48:41.060 establishing

00:48:41.620 his non-bias 0.79

00:48:44.000 and his

00:48:45.120 credibility, a

00:48:46.560 really good

00:48:47.200 job.

00:48:47.880 Some said it

00:48:48.540 lasted too

00:48:49.140 long, but he

00:48:51.000 made it

00:48:51.300 interesting the

00:48:51.920 whole time.

00:48:53.120 I'm not sure

00:48:53.700 if it lasted

00:48:54.220 too long, if

00:48:54.820 it's interesting

00:48:55.520 the whole time.

00:48:56.160 And he

00:48:56.860 made it

00:48:57.180 interesting,

00:48:57.620 because he's

00:48:57.960 a performer.

00:48:59.140 It was a

00:48:59.660 performance.

00:49:00.640 It wasn't a

00:49:01.320 speech, it was a

00:49:01.940 performance, and

00:49:02.620 it was a good

00:49:03.020 one.

00:49:03.780 And by the

00:49:04.140 way, anything

00:49:06.000 you ever thought

00:49:06.780 about Arnold's

00:49:07.620 acting ability?

00:49:09.780 Well, my

00:49:10.380 opinion of it

00:49:10.980 went up,

00:49:11.840 because this

00:49:13.140 was an act,

00:49:14.120 I mean,

00:49:14.920 overtly.

00:49:15.900 He was putting

00:49:16.860 on a show for

00:49:17.720 a purpose, to

00:49:18.540 persuade.

00:49:19.360 I think he

00:49:19.920 nailed it.

00:49:21.020 I mean, I

00:49:21.300 think it's, not

00:49:22.240 only is it

00:49:23.140 persuasion perfect,

00:49:25.100 even though you

00:49:25.780 don't like parts

00:49:26.420 of it, the

00:49:27.020 persuasion part's

00:49:27.720 perfect.

00:49:30.160 And he's the

00:49:30.840 right person at

00:49:31.440 the right time.

00:49:32.600 I think he

00:49:33.180 could actually

00:49:33.600 move the

00:49:34.020 dial.

00:49:34.820 Now, the

00:49:35.100 problem is,

00:49:36.160 will any

00:49:36.660 Russians actually

00:49:37.320 see it?

00:49:37.780 And by the

00:49:38.100 way, there

00:49:38.340 was a

00:49:38.660 translation that

00:49:39.460 came with

00:49:39.800 it, which

00:49:40.880 is good

00:49:41.360 technique.

00:49:45.160 We don't

00:49:45.740 care if he's

00:49:46.200 a rhino.

00:49:47.280 That's not the

00:49:47.960 question today.

00:49:48.660 I mean, you

00:49:48.980 could care about

00:49:49.520 it separately, but

00:49:51.060 it doesn't

00:49:51.400 matter to

00:49:51.860 today's topic.

00:49:52.880 Yeah, it

00:49:55.120 doesn't matter

00:49:55.500 what he did in

00:49:56.000 his personal

00:49:56.400 life, right?

00:50:00.160 Okay.

00:50:01.100 Well, from the

00:50:01.900 Russian perspective,

00:50:03.240 as long as they

00:50:04.300 think he's

00:50:04.940 Republican enough,

00:50:06.900 then it's good

00:50:07.900 persuasion.

00:50:08.500 That's the only

00:50:08.920 point.

00:50:13.880 You used to

00:50:14.780 admire him, but

00:50:15.500 now you don't.

00:50:16.920 Do you think he

00:50:17.540 actually wrote it?

00:50:20.500 That's a good

00:50:21.140 question.

00:50:22.340 It's so good

00:50:23.460 that I suspect

00:50:25.080 he might have.

00:50:26.760 So if he

00:50:27.260 didn't write it,

00:50:27.880 he was obviously

00:50:28.540 deeply involved in

00:50:29.560 editing it.

00:50:30.380 My guess is he

00:50:31.120 probably had a

00:50:31.600 little help, but

00:50:33.620 that there's no

00:50:34.540 word in there

00:50:35.120 that isn't one

00:50:36.520 he wants in

00:50:37.080 there.

00:50:38.020 My guess is that

00:50:38.940 Arnold isn't

00:50:39.460 going to take

00:50:39.820 somebody else's

00:50:40.480 thing and just

00:50:41.000 read it.

00:50:42.740 Is that your

00:50:43.400 take?

00:50:44.300 I mean, Arnold's

00:50:44.960 kind of hands-on,

00:50:45.840 right?

00:50:46.380 He's not going to

00:50:48.240 just say, oh,

00:50:49.060 just go on camera

00:50:49.940 and read this thing

00:50:50.620 and make it

00:50:51.040 convincing.

00:50:51.580 That's not

00:50:51.880 going to

00:50:52.020 happen.

00:50:52.560 It looks like

00:50:53.160 he wrote it.

00:50:54.040 I mean, he's

00:50:54.340 the only one

00:50:54.780 who knew about

00:50:55.340 his connection

00:50:56.880 to the Russian

00:50:57.640 weightlifter and

00:50:59.540 what happened

00:51:00.020 when he was a

00:51:00.520 kid and stuff.

00:51:01.800 So, I don't

00:51:02.440 know.

00:51:02.520 It just seems

00:51:02.960 to me that

00:51:03.500 seeing Hunter

00:51:07.580 Biden memes

00:51:08.200 go by.

00:51:13.540 Scott is

00:51:14.200 working to

00:51:14.700 get into a

00:51:15.200 different set

00:51:15.760 of clubs.

00:51:16.340 You know,

00:51:17.980 everybody who

00:51:18.720 goes tribal

00:51:20.780 on here

00:51:21.200 and your

00:51:23.420 comment is

00:51:24.240 what club

00:51:25.460 I'm trying

00:51:25.900 to join

00:51:26.380 or if I'm

00:51:27.760 trying to

00:51:28.140 make some

00:51:28.800 Democrats

00:51:29.260 happy or

00:51:30.000 sometimes you

00:51:30.900 say, I think

00:51:31.520 he wants to

00:51:31.980 sleep with

00:51:32.440 AOC.

00:51:33.920 All of those

00:51:34.720 comments are

00:51:35.220 the lowest

00:51:35.780 level of

00:51:36.440 analysis.

00:51:37.880 Really.

00:51:38.360 I mean, you're

00:51:39.640 welcome to

00:51:40.300 participate.

00:51:41.700 Of course, you're

00:51:42.180 all welcome.

00:51:43.380 But just know

00:51:44.960 when you say

00:51:45.360 that, that other

00:51:45.920 people read and

00:51:46.540 they're like,

00:51:47.000 if your only

00:51:49.280 take on this

00:51:49.920 is tribal,

00:51:51.400 about how

00:51:52.160 Republican is

00:51:53.300 Arnold, like

00:51:54.840 that's the thing

00:51:55.380 that mattered

00:51:55.700 to you.

00:51:56.800 And is Scott

00:51:57.880 always on the

00:51:58.680 side of the

00:51:59.220 same side?

00:52:00.440 Sometimes does

00:52:01.120 he agree with

00:52:01.580 the other?

00:52:01.900 If any of that

00:52:02.620 matters to you,

00:52:04.020 you're operating

00:52:04.680 at the lowest

00:52:05.480 level of

00:52:06.860 analysis.

00:52:08.360 And I'm,

00:52:12.480 you know, I'm

00:52:13.000 not saying that

00:52:13.700 tribal affiliations

00:52:15.860 don't matter,

00:52:16.580 they do.

00:52:17.700 But if that's

00:52:18.420 what you're

00:52:18.700 obsessed with,

00:52:20.320 you don't have

00:52:21.380 any value.

00:52:23.100 You have no

00:52:24.160 value.

00:52:25.960 Because everybody

00:52:26.860 knows that

00:52:27.780 things are

00:52:28.420 tribal.

00:52:29.400 Like, you're

00:52:29.980 not adding

00:52:30.560 anything.

00:52:37.240 The Russian

00:52:38.120 captions make

00:52:38.900 me think it

00:52:39.300 was produced

00:52:39.840 by a

00:52:40.280 propaganda

00:52:40.660 outfit.

00:52:41.960 Well, here's

00:52:43.900 my question.

00:52:44.800 Do you think

00:52:45.160 the government

00:52:45.680 asked Arnold

00:52:47.180 to do it?

00:52:48.220 Or do you

00:52:48.680 think Arnold

00:52:49.080 just came up

00:52:49.700 with the idea

00:52:50.200 on his own?

00:52:53.560 The existence

00:52:54.400 of the high

00:52:55.940 quality Russian

00:52:56.800 translation that

00:52:57.780 accompanied it

00:52:58.540 suggests he

00:52:59.880 had some

00:53:00.680 help.

00:53:02.900 I mean, I

00:53:03.380 don't think he

00:53:03.820 put the Russian 0.99

00:53:04.360 translation on

00:53:05.140 there himself.

00:53:08.600 So I would

00:53:09.460 guess that

00:53:10.060 somebody in

00:53:12.660 the administration

00:53:13.700 may have

00:53:14.820 reached him

00:53:15.260 or in

00:53:15.640 intelligence.

00:53:16.720 Because it

00:53:17.120 looks like a

00:53:17.980 combination of

00:53:18.920 government

00:53:20.660 level and

00:53:23.200 Arnold level.

00:53:24.020 It looks like

00:53:24.480 a combo.

00:53:27.000 My perception

00:53:27.860 is that Scott

00:53:28.520 has been got

00:53:29.260 to over

00:53:29.920 Ukraine

00:53:30.460 persuasion.

00:53:33.280 Is there

00:53:34.240 anybody who

00:53:34.700 thinks that

00:53:35.160 the Ukrainians

00:53:35.940 have persuaded

00:53:36.680 me and

00:53:39.000 that I'm

00:53:40.340 believing

00:53:40.700 their propaganda?

00:53:43.520 Who thinks?

00:53:44.880 So he says,

00:53:45.600 yes, clearly.

00:53:47.340 All right,

00:53:47.680 well, let me

00:53:48.220 say as clearly

00:53:48.800 as possible.

00:53:50.220 You shouldn't

00:53:50.740 believe anything

00:53:51.340 that Ukraine 0.91

00:53:51.860 says.

00:53:54.060 Is that

00:53:54.740 clear enough?

00:53:55.780 If you believe

00:53:56.760 even one

00:53:57.480 fucking word

00:53:58.340 that the

00:53:59.280 Ukrainians are 1.00

00:54:00.080 saying during

00:54:00.680 a war of

00:54:01.480 survival?

00:54:04.180 Why?

00:54:05.560 And why

00:54:06.260 would you

00:54:06.540 think I

00:54:06.900 would believe

00:54:07.320 Ukraine?

00:54:08.480 Ukraine is

00:54:09.320 the most

00:54:09.700 corrupt,

00:54:10.380 one of the

00:54:10.840 most corrupt

00:54:11.340 governments

00:54:11.940 involved in

00:54:13.540 a war.

00:54:15.960 You can't

00:54:16.720 believe anything

00:54:17.240 they say.

00:54:19.100 Somebody says

00:54:19.640 I'm a

00:54:19.940 Zelensky

00:54:20.460 apologist.

00:54:21.680 I've told you

00:54:22.200 an apologist

00:54:22.620 is a sign

00:54:24.020 for you

00:54:24.360 having

00:54:24.620 cognitive

00:54:25.200 dissonance,

00:54:25.800 right?

00:54:25.960 So why

00:54:28.880 do you

00:54:29.100 think that

00:54:29.540 I'm

00:54:29.840 pro-Ukrainian

00:54:31.760 or I'm

00:54:33.740 believing

00:54:34.040 their propaganda

00:54:34.900 when I

00:54:35.700 tell you

00:54:35.960 I don't

00:54:36.180 believe any

00:54:36.580 of it,

00:54:37.140 like zero

00:54:37.580 of it,

00:54:38.680 none of

00:54:39.060 it?

00:54:39.640 And I

00:54:40.160 strongly

00:54:41.100 recommend

00:54:41.700 that you

00:54:42.620 don't

00:54:42.800 believe any

00:54:43.200 of it.

00:54:44.560 The only

00:54:45.080 things you

00:54:45.420 can believe

00:54:45.800 are the

00:54:46.060 things that

00:54:46.360 are sort

00:54:46.640 of obvious.

00:54:47.560 There's a

00:54:48.000 war,

00:54:48.740 it's in

00:54:49.520 Ukraine,

00:54:50.600 just basic

00:54:51.320 stuff,

00:54:51.660 that's all

00:54:51.960 you know.

00:54:52.760 And otherwise

00:54:53.340 we're all

00:54:53.760 just sort

00:54:54.120 of guessing

00:54:54.500 because the

00:54:56.000 news is

00:54:56.480 fake and

00:54:58.000 everybody's

00:54:58.480 lying.

00:54:59.620 So if you

00:55:00.340 don't start

00:55:00.800 from the

00:55:01.160 premise that

00:55:01.640 all the

00:55:02.040 news is

00:55:02.420 fake and

00:55:02.760 everybody's

00:55:03.220 lying,

00:55:04.540 then everything's

00:55:05.340 confusing to

00:55:06.060 you.

00:55:07.000 So when you

00:55:07.840 say that I

00:55:08.620 have been

00:55:08.920 co-opted by

00:55:09.720 propaganda,

00:55:10.920 how exactly

00:55:11.700 do you get

00:55:12.200 co-opted by

00:55:13.400 propaganda that

00:55:14.480 you are

00:55:14.820 absolutely sure

00:55:15.640 is false?

00:55:17.600 I mean,

00:55:17.940 I suppose it

00:55:18.480 could,

00:55:18.880 but if I

00:55:21.560 talk about

00:55:22.200 Ukraine winning

00:55:23.280 the war,

00:55:24.360 it's not

00:55:24.760 because I

00:55:26.960 even,

00:55:27.480 I'm not

00:55:27.860 even sure

00:55:28.240 I'm that

00:55:28.600 invested,

00:55:29.360 honestly.

00:55:30.520 I don't

00:55:31.100 know if I'm

00:55:31.500 that invested

00:55:32.100 because,

00:55:34.740 I don't

00:55:35.720 know,

00:55:36.740 Ukrainians

00:55:37.340 had some

00:55:37.720 issues.

00:55:38.860 I'm not

00:55:39.340 sure that it

00:55:39.880 matters to

00:55:40.480 the United

00:55:40.860 States who

00:55:41.360 owns Ukraine.

00:55:42.660 I just

00:55:43.020 don't know

00:55:43.320 that it

00:55:43.580 matters to

00:55:43.980 us.

00:55:44.700 So I

00:55:45.240 don't think

00:55:45.780 I have

00:55:45.980 that,

00:55:46.200 the personal

00:55:48.060 interest in

00:55:48.660 it.

00:55:49.340 I do have

00:55:49.980 an interest

00:55:50.420 that dictators 0.92

00:55:51.440 can't conquer

00:55:52.280 countries.

00:55:54.200 Like,

00:55:54.480 I have an

00:55:54.740 interest in

00:55:55.120 that.

00:55:55.560 Because that,

00:55:56.380 in some ways,

00:55:57.260 you could look

00:55:57.660 at the

00:55:58.000 Ukraine situation

00:55:59.140 as being

00:56:01.820 entirely about

00:56:02.740 China.

00:56:03.700 Have you

00:56:03.980 ever thought

00:56:04.340 of that?

00:56:05.960 Have you

00:56:06.260 ever thought

00:56:06.640 that the

00:56:06.980 situation in

00:56:07.680 Ukraine is

00:56:08.440 not even

00:56:09.080 about Russia?

00:56:10.320 It's just

00:56:10.740 about China?

00:56:12.220 Because whatever

00:56:13.100 happens here is

00:56:14.040 going to tell

00:56:14.500 China what they 1.00

00:56:15.200 can get away

00:56:15.700 with, right?

00:56:17.320 So if Ukraine 0.58

00:56:18.340 doesn't go well

00:56:19.280 for Russia,

00:56:21.420 Taiwan is safer,

00:56:22.280 right?

00:56:23.000 Remember I

00:56:23.580 told you

00:56:23.980 that if you

00:56:25.980 were to arm

00:56:26.540 the Taiwan

00:56:27.340 population with

00:56:30.240 these same

00:56:30.620 weapons, and

00:56:32.520 China had to 0.96

00:56:33.440 get there by

00:56:34.020 sea, for the

00:56:35.780 most part?

00:56:36.780 I don't know.

00:56:37.820 I'm not even

00:56:38.320 sure China could

00:56:39.020 conquer Taiwan 0.99

00:56:39.920 without destroying

00:56:40.680 it totally, and

00:56:41.600 I'm not sure

00:56:42.160 that they could

00:56:42.600 do that.

00:56:44.160 So I do

00:56:46.720 think that

00:56:47.120 Ukraine might

00:56:47.680 be entirely

00:56:48.280 about China.

00:56:55.320 Oh, Akira

00:56:56.420 the Don has

00:56:57.040 started up his

00:56:57.680 live streams

00:56:58.280 again, I

00:56:58.640 hear.

00:56:59.100 So check

00:56:59.960 out Akira

00:57:00.560 the Don.

00:57:04.520 What's a

00:57:05.100 corrupted Scott

00:57:05.820 going to do?

00:57:06.340 China gets 0.96

00:57:14.740 both Ukraine.

00:57:15.620 Yeah, you

00:57:16.460 know, China

00:57:18.420 might get

00:57:19.300 Ukraine.

00:57:20.320 I heard

00:57:20.820 somebody say

00:57:21.360 that there's

00:57:22.660 no way that

00:57:23.300 Russia's going 0.97

00:57:23.920 to starve

00:57:24.440 their army

00:57:25.100 because it's

00:57:26.840 the grain

00:57:27.560 basket of

00:57:28.180 the world.

00:57:29.620 So they're

00:57:30.260 not going to

00:57:30.640 run out of

00:57:31.220 bread because

00:57:32.000 it's the

00:57:33.040 bread basket

00:57:33.500 of the world.

00:57:33.980 to which I

00:57:35.420 say, have

00:57:37.600 you ever

00:57:37.820 tried to

00:57:38.160 eat wheat?

00:57:41.820 What do

00:57:42.620 you do?

00:57:42.920 Just grab a

00:57:43.880 handful in

00:57:45.580 the field?

00:57:47.840 How much

00:57:48.460 wheat is

00:57:48.840 growing in

00:57:49.220 the winter?

00:57:50.780 Where is it

00:57:51.280 stored?

00:57:52.780 Do you

00:57:53.000 think it's

00:57:53.300 just stored

00:57:54.000 where they

00:57:54.340 can go get

00:57:54.840 it and

00:57:55.040 make some

00:57:55.340 bread?

00:57:56.560 I don't

00:57:57.060 think it's

00:57:57.360 that easy

00:57:57.780 to turn

00:57:58.240 the wheat

00:57:58.660 in the

00:57:59.000 field into

00:57:59.540 food.

00:58:01.240 You know,

00:58:01.640 if you're

00:58:02.140 in a country

00:58:02.540 where anything

00:58:03.260 that's a

00:58:03.700 factory is

00:58:04.220 going to

00:58:04.420 get destroyed, 0.98

00:58:06.100 how do

00:58:07.000 you turn

00:58:07.280 it into

00:58:07.600 food?

00:58:08.980 It can't

00:58:09.580 be that

00:58:09.860 easy.

00:58:15.720 Yes,

00:58:16.160 we do

00:58:16.420 need

00:58:16.660 fertilizer.

00:58:17.420 Fertilizer is

00:58:17.900 a good

00:58:18.320 question.

00:58:19.660 You've got

00:58:19.940 to mill it.

00:58:20.860 That's right,

00:58:21.240 you've got to

00:58:21.620 mill it.

00:58:24.280 The 13

00:58:25.040 dead on a

00:58:25.660 Ukrainian

00:58:26.060 island was

00:58:26.680 a lie.

00:58:27.000 Yeah,

00:58:27.160 most of

00:58:28.000 what we've

00:58:28.580 heard is

00:58:28.860 a lie or

00:58:29.760 out of

00:58:30.060 context or

00:58:30.680 something.

00:58:32.360 So,

00:58:32.780 anyway,

00:58:33.700 I say

00:58:35.060 Arnold

00:58:35.420 good,

00:58:37.760 Russia

00:58:38.080 bad,

00:58:39.180 and that

00:58:39.980 is your

00:58:40.380 show for

00:58:40.780 today.

00:58:41.640 Possibly the

00:58:42.260 best thing

00:58:42.600 you've ever

00:58:42.900 seen.

00:58:43.720 If you

00:58:44.320 were a

00:58:44.580 subscriber to

00:58:45.500 Locals,

00:58:45.980 you would

00:58:46.280 have seen

00:58:46.580 my micro

00:58:47.460 lesson on

00:58:48.340 how to

00:58:48.940 control all

00:58:49.800 the things

00:58:50.200 you can

00:58:51.140 control.

00:58:52.940 And

00:58:53.420 you can

00:58:57.100 get a

00:58:57.400 countertop

00:58:57.960 and milling

00:58:58.480 machine.

00:58:58.800 well,

00:58:59.680 I agree

00:59:00.420 that you

00:59:00.780 can mill

00:59:01.260 the wheat,

00:59:02.480 but I

00:59:03.020 don't know

00:59:03.260 if you

00:59:03.480 can mill

00:59:03.840 it fast

00:59:04.380 enough and

00:59:04.880 efficiently

00:59:05.320 enough to

00:59:05.820 feed an

00:59:06.200 army,

00:59:07.000 and if

00:59:07.500 your army

00:59:07.860 is eating

00:59:08.220 only bread

00:59:08.900 and melted

00:59:11.040 snow,

00:59:12.000 I don't

00:59:12.300 know.

00:59:13.400 It doesn't

00:59:13.740 seem like a

00:59:14.220 good situation.

00:59:15.900 That's all

00:59:16.400 for now,

00:59:16.860 and I'll

00:59:17.160 talk to you

00:59:17.700 tomorrow.

00:59:18.800 tomorrow.
