Real Coffee with Scott Adams - Episode 1814 Scott Adams： The January 6 Narrative Has Been Debunked The Replacement HOAX Has Emerged

00:00:00.000 And welcome to the dose of optimism that you've been needing.

00:00:04.880 Are you finding that social media and the fake news is getting you down?

00:00:11.060 Yeah, yeah, you're not alone.

00:00:13.320 But what you need is the simultaneous sip and coffee with Scott Adams.

00:00:17.560 It is the antidote to all of your misery.

00:00:20.860 And all you need is a cup or a mug or a glass of tank or chalice or stein,

00:00:23.880 a canteen jug or flask, a vessel of any kind.

00:00:26.640 If you fill it with your favorite liquid, I like coffee,

00:00:31.460 and join me for the simultaneous sip,

00:00:34.520 you'll find that it's the dopamine hit of the day.

00:00:37.320 Yes, is your chemistry out of balance?

00:00:39.900 This will fix it.

00:00:41.800 Go.

00:00:45.920 Do you feel that?

00:00:47.940 I feel that my serotonin has been replenished,

00:00:51.220 although it has nothing to do with depression.

00:00:54.460 Dopamine, good.

00:00:55.440 Oxytocin still needs a little bit of work.

00:00:59.560 But we'll work on that as we go.

00:01:02.500 Because this togetherness, which we're about to experience,

00:01:05.860 will generate your oxytocin.

00:01:09.200 Now, that would be an interesting experiment.

00:01:12.300 Do you think I could change your oxytocin levels with a live stream?

00:01:17.940 What do you think?

00:01:19.280 Could I do it?

00:01:20.020 So oxytocin is the one that makes you feel basically content and happy and in love and all that stuff.

00:01:27.140 Yeah, I think I could, a little bit.

00:01:28.840 I'll bet if you tested it, you could actually determine that I could if I tried.

00:01:33.040 So I'll try.

00:01:33.780 I'd like your oxytocin levels to go up a little bit.

00:01:39.740 Just a little bit.

00:01:42.320 Believe it or not, that'll probably work for some of you.

00:01:45.800 Sometimes a direct suggestion.

00:01:47.860 If you have a big crowd, a direct suggestion will get some of them.

00:01:52.840 You know, 1%, something like that.

00:01:54.460 But 1% just had their oxytocin levels raised.

00:01:59.400 That's the power of persuasion in large groups.

00:02:03.660 If I try to persuade one person of one specific thing, what are my chances of success?

00:02:11.980 Well, it depends how much I work on it, right?

00:02:14.040 If you lock them in a room with me for a year, yeah, I can convince anybody of anything.

00:02:18.040 But if you're just, like, tossing something out there, you're only going to get 1% of the people on the first try.

00:02:26.000 You'd have to work on it to get more than that.

00:02:28.480 So when I toss out something like your oxytocin levels are going to go up because you're going to feel a connection and a warmth, almost a virtual hug.

00:02:37.860 In fact, imagine right now you're getting a virtual hug from me.

00:02:42.140 Yeah, it's a little gay for some of you, but work with me.

00:02:45.440 And then you'll feel better.

00:02:49.660 Your oxytocin level is going up.

00:02:51.840 Well, the big story of the day is that Josh Hawley runs like a bitch.

00:02:55.480 Did you see that story?

00:02:57.280 So Josh Hawley, there's a video of him relevant to the January 6th event in which he was, let's say, jogging briskly to get away from the problems.

00:03:09.540 And a number of people on the Democrat side have decided that they would like to characterize that as, quote, running like a little bitch.

00:03:19.440 Running like a little bitch.

00:03:22.140 To which I say, paging AOC, isn't that a sexist slur?

00:03:29.080 Don't all the Democrats who say he was running like a bitch kind of need to be canceled?

00:03:34.120 Because isn't the entire concept of running like a bitch an insult to women?

00:03:42.260 That's the point of it, right?

00:03:44.380 That you're not a man, you're a woman, and that's an insult, that you're acting like a woman.

00:03:49.560 I'm pretty sure women can run.

00:03:53.760 Probably a lot of them can run faster than Josh Hawley.

00:03:56.580 But I thought it was funny that for the first time in American history, a member of Congress did something quickly, and we're all calling him a bitch.

00:04:07.760 Oh, oh, you did what you planned to do, which was leave the building in a time of danger.

00:04:13.160 So you planned to do that, but are you saying that you did it promptly?

00:04:18.360 Oh, you little fucking bitch.

00:04:20.840 You little bitch.

00:04:22.680 You did something that everybody should have been doing at that exact time, but you did it promptly?

00:04:28.080 What kind of member of Congress are you for acting promptly?

00:04:33.560 And if I may say one other thing, I don't think this can be missed.

00:04:38.440 What are you doing in Congress if you're still capable of running on both legs?

00:04:43.940 What?

00:04:44.720 I didn't even know you could be a member of Congress if you could get up and run.

00:04:49.960 So that story is the most important story in the world.

00:04:54.720 Why?

00:04:55.880 Could it be because the January 6th narrative completely collapsed and they got nothing to talk about except that Josh Hawley is still capable of being mobile,

00:05:10.640 and he did something quickly in Congress, and I think he should be expelled for that.

00:05:15.960 Well, here's some news.

00:05:22.100 Apparently, do you know that China makes a telephone equipment switch, which is the most important piece of equipment in a phone network, right?

00:05:32.120 So when you place a call, your call goes to the nearest switch, a big device, and then it goes to where it needs to go from that device.

00:05:39.760 Well, China is one of the biggest entities in this market, and their company, Huawei, makes these switches that sit atop cell towers.

00:05:54.880 And, I don't know, have I ever mentioned that it's risky to do business with China?

00:06:01.100 Have I ever mentioned that anywhere?

00:06:03.180 Oh, yeah, I think I have.

00:06:04.240 I think I have.

00:06:04.800 Yes, and now it turns out that if you put this Chinese high-tech equipment into your network,

00:06:10.780 among the small problems that might arise are, according to the news,

00:06:16.060 especially if they're near U.S. military bases,

00:06:19.980 according to multiple sources familiar with the matter,

00:06:22.500 the FBI has determined that they could disrupt national defense communications,

00:06:29.360 including those used by our command to control or oversee the nuclear weapons.

00:06:38.000 Wait, what?

00:06:38.920 That's right.

00:06:39.960 We are putting equipment into our network that could make us helpless in a nuclear attack.

00:06:47.580 I think that's overstating it.

00:06:50.520 We wouldn't be helpless.

00:06:52.200 But it's a risk.

00:06:54.180 It's a risk that's being injected into the system.

00:06:57.360 Now, I call back to you, and I say to you,

00:07:02.880 does anybody remember, maybe you could give me a year for this,

00:07:06.500 probably, I think it was 2018.

00:07:08.760 I think it was 2018.

00:07:09.840 Was it 2018 I started telling you that China was too risky for business,

00:07:17.300 you know, to do business there,

00:07:18.660 and I said that I was going to take China down

00:07:21.300 by making sure people understood that if you brought your business there

00:07:25.820 or you did business with China and it didn't work out,

00:07:29.520 you couldn't hide anymore, right?

00:07:31.800 If you do business with China and it doesn't work out for you,

00:07:36.500 don't say you didn't fucking know because I told you.

00:07:40.220 One of the superpowers I have is as the creator of Dilbert,

00:07:46.040 if you do something that's going to get in my crosshairs,

00:07:50.480 you might regret it because I get a lot of attention.

00:07:55.080 You know, there are a ton of people in the corporate world

00:07:57.780 who literally try to avoid doing something

00:08:01.580 that would end up in a Dilbert comic.

00:08:05.700 Elon Musk being the famous example of that.

00:08:07.600 He actually has a rule that says don't do anything

00:08:09.900 that might end up in a Dilbert comic.

00:08:11.840 That's actually the corporate rule.

00:08:13.900 And there are other companies that have very similar rules

00:08:15.880 they've told me over the years.

00:08:18.160 So, yeah, I can actually put a damper on bad ideas

00:08:22.380 in the business world.

00:08:23.880 It's kind of what I do.

00:08:24.600 I kill bad ideas in the business world.

00:08:27.640 It's sort of my special skills.

00:08:32.160 And so one of the ideas in the business world

00:08:34.220 that needed to be killed

00:08:35.300 is that doing business with China

00:08:37.580 was a good risk-reward decision.

00:08:41.140 It's not.

00:08:42.660 It's not.

00:08:43.240 So what I did was persuade people to understand

00:08:47.120 that the risk was higher than they thought.

00:08:50.740 Now, was I aided by events?

00:08:53.880 Yes, I was.

00:08:55.540 The pandemic, you know,

00:08:57.400 and all the badness that came out of that.

00:09:00.680 But you will notice now,

00:09:03.220 you will notice a lot of stories

00:09:05.280 that have the same flavor to them,

00:09:08.080 that it's too dangerous to do business in China.

00:09:10.580 Bloomberg actually says that now.

00:09:13.760 And they do a lot of business in China.

00:09:16.240 Right?

00:09:16.680 One entity does business in China

00:09:18.260 while their news entity says,

00:09:20.580 you know, it's kind of sketchy

00:09:22.180 to do business in China.

00:09:24.340 So that's happening.

00:09:26.620 And Huawei is the latest example

00:09:28.880 of that happening.

00:09:34.820 Do you ever see the videos of Joe Biden

00:09:37.020 going to his helicopter?

00:09:38.820 Have you ever noticed he jogs to his helicopter?

00:09:43.820 Has anybody ever seen that?

00:09:45.220 He usually jogs to it.

00:09:47.400 Like a bitch, if I can say that.

00:09:50.920 Now that it's okay to say that,

00:09:52.600 until this morning,

00:09:53.460 I wouldn't have said something like that

00:09:54.640 because it would sound sexist and misogynist.

00:09:58.820 But as of today,

00:10:00.540 the Democrats have opened up that word to popular use.

00:10:04.120 And I'd like to say that

00:10:05.120 when Joe Biden runs to his helicopter,

00:10:06.900 I don't know, to me it looks like

00:10:08.840 he's running like a little bitch.

00:10:10.540 That's just me.

00:10:12.660 So, interesting thing happened yesterday.

00:10:16.700 Interesting thing happened yesterday.

00:10:19.840 So the very video that you said

00:10:22.180 you liked yesterday,

00:10:23.720 a number of people on the Locals Network

00:10:25.500 said they enjoyed my live stream yesterday.

00:10:27.620 The title of which was

00:10:30.080 that the January 6th narrative had dissolved.

00:10:36.240 And what's interesting is that

00:10:37.780 that episode alone,

00:10:39.180 among my other episodes on YouTube,

00:10:40.980 you know, there are hundreds of them on YouTube,

00:10:43.100 it can't be downloaded.

00:10:45.960 I don't know why.

00:10:47.220 The other ones can.

00:10:49.000 But that one can't be downloaded.

00:10:50.680 You can still see it.

00:10:55.060 But it can't be downloaded.

00:10:56.580 Well, what do you think is up with that?

00:10:59.840 Was somebody able to download it?

00:11:01.980 Somebody just said they were able.

00:11:03.480 Maybe it got turned back on.

00:11:05.400 But for the last 24 hours,

00:11:06.960 you couldn't download it.

00:11:08.720 So here's a little experiment that I did.

00:11:11.760 I titled my live stream today

00:11:14.620 with a similarly provocative title.

00:11:18.020 What did I title it?

00:11:19.680 Something about the January 6th

00:11:21.740 has been debunked or something.

00:11:23.820 So we'll see if we have the same problem

00:11:25.580 with this one because of the content.

00:11:28.400 Do you think that YouTube

00:11:29.540 has somebody assigned to watch me?

00:11:31.880 Like a specific person?

00:11:33.860 Or do you think it just goes in the pool

00:11:35.440 like any other complaint?

00:11:38.260 I think I'm watched.

00:11:39.840 I think the larger,

00:11:42.400 probably anybody over 100,000 subscribers,

00:11:45.440 probably has somebody

00:11:46.960 who's assigned to watch them,

00:11:48.240 along with a list of people

00:11:49.960 that they're watching.

00:11:51.260 Yeah, I think so.

00:11:53.020 So my effectiveness

00:11:54.820 is largely determined

00:11:57.140 by a person I don't know,

00:11:58.880 probably, just guessing,

00:12:00.740 a person I don't know,

00:12:01.940 have never met,

00:12:03.440 who is judging my content

00:12:04.720 and deciding whether

00:12:05.660 other people should see it.

00:12:07.200 Probably one person.

00:12:09.440 Don't you think?

00:12:10.560 I doubt it goes to a committee

00:12:12.060 each and every time.

00:12:13.160 It probably goes to the same person

00:12:14.260 who's got more context

00:12:15.720 and everything.

00:12:17.820 How is that okay?

00:12:21.060 Don't you think that I should

00:12:22.160 at least know who that person is

00:12:23.660 that I could make my case?

00:12:25.820 It's pretty creepy, isn't it?

00:12:27.720 That my free speech,

00:12:29.720 probably,

00:12:30.420 I mean this is an assumption,

00:12:31.540 I'm speculating,

00:12:32.720 probably,

00:12:33.560 is being monitored

00:12:35.000 by one person I've never met

00:12:36.560 and don't know their name.

00:12:38.740 Probably.

00:12:40.160 Think about that.

00:12:41.180 So Attorney General Barr

00:12:45.500 said something like

00:12:47.340 the cartels,

00:12:48.380 maybe we should treat them

00:12:49.260 more like ISIS.

00:12:51.080 What's that sound like?

00:12:53.100 We should treat the cartels

00:12:54.320 more like ISIS.

00:12:56.260 Like a terrorist group.

00:12:58.360 Huh.

00:13:00.200 Does anybody remember

00:13:01.620 that story

00:13:02.300 where Trump was asking

00:13:03.820 about droning the cartels

00:13:05.920 and the mainstream news

00:13:07.720 treated it like

00:13:08.380 it was crazy talk?

00:13:09.400 Well, is it still crazy talk?

00:13:12.980 Because Attorney General Barr,

00:13:15.800 who said that the election,

00:13:17.880 you know,

00:13:18.200 claims against the election

00:13:19.800 were bullshit,

00:13:21.120 and Barr is not exactly

00:13:22.700 pro-Trump

00:13:24.040 at this moment, right?

00:13:26.220 So Barr seems to be

00:13:28.320 somewhat agreeing

00:13:29.900 with the general characterization

00:13:31.320 that the cartels

00:13:33.460 are ISIS-like

00:13:34.700 in some ways,

00:13:35.780 but that really is indicating

00:13:37.400 a military attack,

00:13:38.480 isn't it?

00:13:38.800 treating them like ISIS?

00:13:42.260 That means a military attack

00:13:43.860 on Mexico.

00:13:44.500 What else could it mean?

00:13:46.720 So,

00:13:47.660 I think I

00:13:48.720 might have been,

00:13:50.420 I don't know,

00:13:51.540 was I the first person

00:13:52.700 in the country

00:13:53.240 to say we should send

00:13:54.160 a missile into Mexico?

00:13:55.880 Like, really seriously?

00:13:58.460 Did anybody say it before me?

00:14:00.300 I mean,

00:14:00.660 it's a big country,

00:14:01.440 so somebody must have.

00:14:02.660 But I didn't hear it.

00:14:03.540 So now we're actually

00:14:05.720 talking about it seriously,

00:14:07.000 right?

00:14:08.860 Did you think it would ever

00:14:10.360 become a serious conversation

00:14:11.860 that we would drone

00:14:13.660 or send some missiles

00:14:14.640 into the cartels

00:14:16.000 in Mexico?

00:14:16.880 It's now a serious conversation.

00:14:19.000 Not only is it serious,

00:14:20.320 but I have the following prediction.

00:14:22.680 If Biden doesn't do it,

00:14:24.380 and I don't think he will,

00:14:27.440 Trump will.

00:14:28.920 And when Trump does it,

00:14:30.060 it's going to be

00:14:30.520 way more popular

00:14:31.520 than anybody imagined.

00:14:33.400 I mean,

00:14:33.880 there'll be protests

00:14:35.120 and, you know,

00:14:35.760 big,

00:14:36.260 big,

00:14:36.820 there'll be a big pushback.

00:14:39.580 But it's going to be

00:14:40.560 a lot like drone,

00:14:41.980 it's going to be a lot like

00:14:43.200 Trump taking out

00:14:44.020 the top terrorist in Iran.

00:14:46.280 Do you remember

00:14:46.680 when Trump had him killed,

00:14:48.980 the number one terrorist

00:14:50.000 in Iran?

00:14:51.680 And everybody said,

00:14:52.420 well, you can't do that.

00:14:53.160 He's part of the government.

00:14:54.480 He's a general.

00:14:55.860 You can't just kill

00:14:56.680 a general in Iran.

00:14:59.020 Well, yeah, you can.

00:15:00.020 Yeah, Soleimani.

00:15:01.480 Soleimani.

00:15:02.800 It turns out you can.

00:15:03.880 You can just kill him.

00:15:05.620 Trump did it.

00:15:06.640 He just killed him.

00:15:07.980 And it probably helped.

00:15:10.120 Hard to say,

00:15:10.960 but it probably helped.

00:15:14.080 Yes,

00:15:14.760 Trump could,

00:15:15.460 Trump or anybody else,

00:15:16.740 could absolutely

00:15:17.980 attack Mexico

00:15:19.780 in an act of war.

00:15:21.680 And I got some pushback

00:15:22.820 on that,

00:15:23.320 and here's what

00:15:23.760 the pushback was.

00:15:25.560 You shouldn't,

00:15:26.740 you shouldn't

00:15:27.500 attack other countries.

00:15:29.560 To which I say,

00:15:30.800 shouldn't.

00:15:32.500 Shouldn't is a word

00:15:33.560 you use when

00:15:34.120 you don't have reasons.

00:15:36.460 Am I right?

00:15:38.000 The word should

00:15:38.940 and shouldn't

00:15:39.660 should be removed

00:15:40.400 from your vocabulary

00:15:41.440 unless you're trying

00:15:42.900 to just be a weasel.

00:15:45.280 Right?

00:15:45.600 The moment you say

00:15:46.460 something should be done,

00:15:48.280 you're indicating

00:15:48.940 you don't have a reason.

00:15:51.040 Because if it's dangerous,

00:15:52.460 you'd say,

00:15:52.920 that's too dangerous.

00:15:55.080 If it's too expensive,

00:15:56.260 you'd say,

00:15:56.600 that's too expensive.

00:15:57.480 If it's too risky,

00:15:58.360 you'd say,

00:15:58.660 that's too risky.

00:15:59.800 But if you say

00:16:00.460 it shouldn't be done,

00:16:01.660 you're basically signaling

00:16:02.960 that you don't have

00:16:03.460 a fucking reason.

00:16:05.120 Right?

00:16:05.600 So the pushback

00:16:06.560 I got for attacking

00:16:08.380 Mexico's cartel operations

00:16:10.900 is that it would be

00:16:12.200 an act of war

00:16:13.060 to which I said,

00:16:15.200 okay,

00:16:16.600 go on.

00:16:18.420 It's an act of war.

00:16:19.420 And now give you a reason

00:16:21.080 that we shouldn't do it.

00:16:23.620 There wasn't one.

00:16:24.820 The reason was

00:16:25.500 it's an act of war.

00:16:26.920 And you shouldn't attack

00:16:28.560 your neighboring countries.

00:16:30.720 Now,

00:16:31.340 shouldn't is not a reason.

00:16:33.280 You need a reason.

00:16:35.260 Somebody gets hurt.

00:16:37.000 You know,

00:16:37.180 there's some long-run problem.

00:16:39.000 Anything.

00:16:40.120 Nothing.

00:16:41.600 So just should and shouldn't

00:16:43.100 was the whole reason.

00:16:44.140 There's no fucking reason

00:16:45.300 we should not declare war

00:16:46.900 on Mexico.

00:16:47.480 Let me say it clearly.

00:16:49.840 If we're going to send

00:16:50.960 a drone into Mexico,

00:16:52.480 we should declare war.

00:16:54.280 We should have that

00:16:55.080 conversation in Congress.

00:16:56.200 I don't think the president

00:16:57.020 should do it without Congress.

00:16:58.760 But we should have

00:16:59.560 that conversation in Congress.

00:17:01.360 Should we declare war

00:17:02.520 on Mexico?

00:17:03.780 And I think we should.

00:17:06.380 Is that clear enough?

00:17:07.960 I'm saying yes,

00:17:08.900 declare war on Mexico.

00:17:11.180 Yes.

00:17:12.440 Declare war on Mexico.

00:17:13.920 I don't want there

00:17:15.600 to be any ambiguity.

00:17:17.120 Because when I say

00:17:18.520 we should attack

00:17:19.720 the cartels,

00:17:20.880 it is an act of war.

00:17:22.940 And if you're going to do

00:17:23.720 an act of war,

00:17:24.440 just do it.

00:17:25.900 You know,

00:17:26.100 don't be a weasel about it.

00:17:27.240 It's a fucking war.

00:17:28.620 We're in the war.

00:17:29.660 We're just losing.

00:17:32.000 Let me say it again.

00:17:33.560 The war already started.

00:17:35.900 It's been going on for years.

00:17:37.220 We're just fucking losing.

00:17:39.040 Do you want to keep losing?

00:17:40.700 Then just sit there

00:17:41.580 and let your children

00:17:42.580 die like crazy.

00:17:44.220 Right?

00:17:44.660 But if you want to win,

00:17:46.040 you're going to have

00:17:46.540 to call it what it is.

00:17:47.500 It's a fucking act of war.

00:17:49.360 And do you think

00:17:50.220 the Mexican government

00:17:51.300 is going to be mad about it?

00:17:52.840 Who fucking cares?

00:17:54.540 What are they doing

00:17:55.260 about the cartels?

00:17:56.240 Nothing.

00:17:56.640 They're owned by the cartels.

00:17:57.580 We don't care.

00:17:58.760 Do not care.

00:18:00.460 Act of war.

00:18:02.260 Declare war.

00:18:03.720 Clean out the nests.

00:18:05.460 Do what you want.

00:18:06.000 You know what

00:18:06.220 the next objection was?

00:18:08.580 Well, that's not going

00:18:09.520 to stop the fentanyl

00:18:10.680 from coming in.

00:18:12.880 What do you think?

00:18:14.360 Do you think

00:18:14.800 attacking the cartels

00:18:15.820 would stop the fentanyl

00:18:17.180 from coming in?

00:18:18.460 No.

00:18:19.020 Of course not.

00:18:19.940 Do you think

00:18:20.360 that's the reason

00:18:21.000 that we shouldn't do it?

00:18:23.280 No.

00:18:24.860 No.

00:18:25.740 You're missing

00:18:26.460 the point here.

00:18:28.140 Does having a police force

00:18:29.720 make murder disappear?

00:18:32.980 No, it doesn't.

00:18:34.280 So we should get rid

00:18:35.100 of the police, right?

00:18:36.160 Because there's still murder?

00:18:37.380 No.

00:18:37.880 It reduces it.

00:18:39.800 Right?

00:18:40.800 It's friction.

00:18:42.200 You want to put

00:18:42.920 as much friction

00:18:43.820 as you can

00:18:44.440 on everything

00:18:45.120 that's bothering you.

00:18:46.900 And I would put

00:18:47.740 all the friction

00:18:48.500 in the world

00:18:49.060 on fentanyl.

00:18:51.080 Now, you might

00:18:51.700 create a situation

00:18:52.820 where selling fentanyl

00:18:53.960 specifically

00:18:54.720 gets too expensive

00:18:56.500 for the cartels.

00:18:57.720 Because they're

00:18:58.200 basically a business, right?

00:18:59.800 So you could say,

00:19:00.820 all right,

00:19:01.100 we're going to make

00:19:01.520 this one thing

00:19:02.180 too expensive.

00:19:03.600 But if you want

00:19:04.360 to keep sending us

00:19:05.120 cocaine and marijuana,

00:19:08.100 we won't treat

00:19:09.380 that the same way.

00:19:10.980 But this fentanyl stuff,

00:19:12.580 if you do that,

00:19:13.600 your bases of operation

00:19:15.320 are going to disappear.

00:19:16.980 That's an act of war.

00:19:17.960 I think we could

00:19:20.060 say what is

00:19:21.500 and what isn't

00:19:22.100 too far.

00:19:25.220 And those who say,

00:19:26.860 but Scott, Scott,

00:19:27.740 the real problem

00:19:28.340 is demand.

00:19:30.100 Go learn something

00:19:31.280 about addiction.

00:19:32.760 If you think demand

00:19:34.140 can be managed,

00:19:35.660 you don't know

00:19:36.180 anything about the topic.

00:19:38.040 You don't know

00:19:38.520 what addiction is.

00:19:39.420 Addiction means

00:19:40.100 you can't do anything

00:19:40.780 about it.

00:19:41.840 It means your brain

00:19:42.740 has been taken over.

00:19:44.380 Just because

00:19:45.140 some people

00:19:46.180 can kick an addiction,

00:19:47.940 that doesn't mean

00:19:48.860 it works.

00:19:50.060 It just means

00:19:50.540 that some people

00:19:51.220 weren't that addicted

00:19:52.100 and they had

00:19:52.920 the ability to get out.

00:19:54.060 The people who are

00:19:54.660 super addicted,

00:19:55.400 they don't have

00:19:55.760 any ability to get out.

00:19:57.860 They'd probably do it

00:19:58.780 if they had the ability

00:20:00.200 and the will to do it.

00:20:01.660 But they don't.

00:20:03.480 So you can work

00:20:04.880 on the demand side

00:20:05.680 all you want,

00:20:06.420 but it's going to be

00:20:06.920 a 5% difference.

00:20:09.580 If you bomb the cartels,

00:20:11.040 it might be

00:20:11.400 a 10% difference.

00:20:12.400 It's all, again,

00:20:13.400 not that big,

00:20:14.900 but big enough,

00:20:16.520 big enough

00:20:17.500 to say that we should

00:20:18.760 declare war on Mexico.

00:20:23.800 I don't think

00:20:24.560 anybody's disagreeing

00:20:25.500 with me, are you?

00:20:26.920 I didn't see

00:20:27.680 any disagreement here.

00:20:29.460 Are you all on board

00:20:30.600 with declaring war

00:20:31.980 on Mexico?

00:20:35.360 Okay, there is

00:20:36.160 some disagreement.

00:20:37.900 All right.

00:20:38.980 I will note

00:20:39.840 there is disagreement.

00:20:42.400 And do you have

00:20:43.340 any reasons?

00:20:50.420 It's the Mexican people's fault.

00:20:52.460 It's the cartel's fault.

00:20:54.860 If you're saying

00:20:55.800 that innocent Mexican people

00:20:57.880 would be killed,

00:20:58.700 you're right.

00:21:00.540 You're right.

00:21:02.760 But that's the cost-benefit analysis.

00:21:07.300 Bomb the traffickers.

00:21:08.620 Yeah, I mean,

00:21:09.340 we would only

00:21:09.840 bomb the traffickers.

00:21:12.500 Smaller border.

00:21:14.100 So you think

00:21:14.840 there would be

00:21:15.100 more terrorism?

00:21:16.500 You think

00:21:17.040 there would be

00:21:17.320 more terrorism

00:21:18.000 than 100,000 people

00:21:19.420 killed every year

00:21:20.220 from fentanyl?

00:21:22.380 If there is,

00:21:24.460 if we declare war

00:21:26.240 on Mexico

00:21:26.740 and it increases

00:21:27.880 the number of people

00:21:28.680 dying in this country,

00:21:29.960 we should increase

00:21:31.120 the war

00:21:31.660 until it stops.

00:21:33.860 I'm pretty sure

00:21:37.140 we can pacify Mexico.

00:21:39.520 I feel like

00:21:40.300 that's doable.

00:21:42.900 All right.

00:21:45.620 Things you need

00:21:46.480 to believe

00:21:47.280 to be a Democrat.

00:21:49.040 I will refer you to,

00:21:51.240 I retweeted this

00:21:52.000 so you can find it

00:21:52.600 in my feed,

00:21:53.140 but Ryan Vertanen

00:21:55.100 did a sub-stack

00:21:56.440 in which he

00:21:57.220 explained some

00:21:58.680 of the weird things

00:21:59.280 you'd have to believe

00:22:00.020 to be a Democrat.

00:22:01.960 It's worth reading.

00:22:02.460 All right.

00:22:05.360 I'm going to say

00:22:06.240 that it's just a fact

00:22:07.260 that the January 6th

00:22:08.580 insurrection hoax

00:22:09.480 has been debunked.

00:22:11.700 It's been debunked

00:22:12.920 because the hearings

00:22:14.160 have gone to

00:22:14.820 a fairly mature

00:22:15.940 area already,

00:22:17.540 and if there was

00:22:18.700 any evidence

00:22:19.480 to support

00:22:20.100 the insurrection claim,

00:22:21.760 we would have

00:22:22.760 seen it by now.

00:22:23.920 And so I got into

00:22:24.780 a little Twitter debate

00:22:25.960 with somebody

00:22:26.520 who was,

00:22:26.940 my God, Scott,

00:22:28.240 have you not watched

00:22:29.340 the hearings?

00:22:30.720 It's just full of evidence.

00:22:33.460 To which I said,

00:22:34.880 really?

00:22:35.620 I haven't watched

00:22:36.220 the hearings.

00:22:37.180 But you would think

00:22:37.840 that if it's full

00:22:38.520 of evidence,

00:22:39.200 that would be

00:22:39.700 in the news.

00:22:41.220 I read the news,

00:22:42.840 and the news

00:22:43.480 doesn't have any evidence.

00:22:45.900 So I said,

00:22:47.100 so I asked,

00:22:47.940 and by the way,

00:22:48.480 this is good technique.

00:22:50.240 I knew that he would

00:22:51.080 have several reasons.

00:22:53.380 So I said,

00:22:54.060 give me your best evidence,

00:22:56.000 your best evidence

00:22:56.960 that you got

00:22:57.360 out of the hearings

00:22:58.140 that there was

00:22:59.760 a planned insurrection.

00:23:01.780 Here was the best evidence

00:23:03.160 that Trump wanted

00:23:05.780 the magnum meters

00:23:06.880 turned off

00:23:07.740 that were checking

00:23:09.280 for guns

00:23:09.880 because he said,

00:23:10.980 quote,

00:23:11.940 they're not here

00:23:13.140 to hurt me.

00:23:14.980 And that was evidence

00:23:15.820 that what he really meant

00:23:16.860 is they should take

00:23:17.580 their guns to the Capitol

00:23:18.680 and overthrow the country.

00:23:21.240 Seriously.

00:23:22.340 That was his best evidence.

00:23:24.600 That was number one.

00:23:25.440 Number one is that words

00:23:27.240 don't mean what they mean.

00:23:29.760 Are you seeing

00:23:30.240 the pattern yet?

00:23:31.320 When Trump says,

00:23:32.800 find some votes

00:23:33.600 in the context

00:23:34.500 of asking for an audit,

00:23:36.760 that that really

00:23:37.600 is mafia talk.

00:23:39.420 Find the votes.

00:23:40.420 It means just invent them

00:23:41.460 and fraud,

00:23:42.680 you know,

00:23:43.280 do something fraudulent.

00:23:45.060 I don't think so.

00:23:46.780 I think find

00:23:47.740 was exactly

00:23:48.400 what the word means.

00:23:50.160 Do an audit

00:23:50.840 and find things

00:23:51.820 that you have not

00:23:52.240 already found

00:23:52.840 that are really there.

00:23:54.480 Why can't

00:23:55.180 words actually

00:23:55.920 mean what they mean?

00:23:58.320 Is Trump

00:23:59.020 the only person

00:23:59.680 in the world

00:24:00.120 who uses vocabulary

00:24:02.040 in a different way?

00:24:03.920 But when Trump says,

00:24:05.740 they're not here

00:24:06.240 to hurt me,

00:24:07.860 and that he goes on

00:24:09.020 and encourages people

00:24:11.080 to protest peacefully,

00:24:13.820 peacefully,

00:24:15.060 what possible

00:24:16.340 interpretation

00:24:18.220 could there be

00:24:19.220 except that he was,

00:24:21.820 he said,

00:24:22.380 there's no danger

00:24:23.020 from the guns

00:24:23.740 to him,

00:24:24.400 meaning he was

00:24:25.580 thinking about

00:24:26.000 his own danger

00:24:26.640 as the purpose

00:24:27.320 of those magnovators.

00:24:28.520 He wasn't thinking

00:24:29.020 about the Capitol.

00:24:30.500 There's no evidence

00:24:31.200 that he was thinking,

00:24:32.020 oh, take your guns

00:24:32.900 to the Capitol.

00:24:34.180 There's no evidence

00:24:35.160 of that.

00:24:35.820 There's only evidence

00:24:36.660 that he thought

00:24:37.440 he wasn't in danger,

00:24:38.680 and that was the reason

00:24:39.900 for the magnovators,

00:24:40.980 magnovators, right?

00:24:42.220 The stated reason

00:24:43.400 for those metal detectors

00:24:45.220 primarily

00:24:46.720 was to keep people

00:24:48.680 who were attending

00:24:49.620 and the president safe,

00:24:50.880 right?

00:24:52.000 And once he said,

00:24:52.900 but we are safe,

00:24:54.340 that was the right answer.

00:24:56.500 But we are safe.

00:24:57.480 Republicans aren't

00:24:58.220 going to shoot each other

00:24:59.060 or shoot me.

00:25:00.080 And he was right.

00:25:01.660 Now, there was danger

00:25:02.720 at the Capitol.

00:25:03.480 That's a different thing.

00:25:04.180 Cope.

00:25:04.440 All the Democrats

00:25:06.800 have left

00:25:07.400 when all of their theories

00:25:09.140 have been debunked

00:25:10.460 is one word.

00:25:12.180 Cope.

00:25:13.420 Try to deal with the fact.

00:25:15.180 What?

00:25:15.820 That your entire hearings

00:25:17.100 just fell apart?

00:25:18.260 It just dissolved

00:25:19.300 in sunlight.

00:25:20.920 They put the hearings

00:25:21.820 in the sunlight

00:25:22.380 and there was nothing there.

00:25:23.500 It just dissolved.

00:25:25.120 Now, here's the...

00:25:25.960 Yeah, cry more.

00:25:27.380 Cope.

00:25:29.940 So, we now know

00:25:31.300 exactly how the Democrats

00:25:33.040 do their hoaxes.

00:25:34.440 And you can see

00:25:35.040 the pattern for them again.

00:25:36.220 Because it's the same pattern

00:25:37.440 as Russia collusion.

00:25:39.500 So, here's the pattern.

00:25:40.920 A gigantic claim,

00:25:42.380 so big that you can't

00:25:43.520 even believe it,

00:25:44.760 that the president

00:25:45.540 of the United States

00:25:46.460 or somebody running for it

00:25:47.840 was colluding with Russia.

00:25:50.300 That's a big claim, right?

00:25:51.800 It's as big as

00:25:52.800 saying that the president

00:25:54.520 was running an insurrection

00:25:55.700 on January 6th.

00:25:56.860 Like, big, big claims.

00:25:58.160 So, number one

00:25:58.720 is big claim.

00:26:00.280 Step two,

00:26:01.700 insist that there's

00:26:02.840 plenty of proof.

00:26:04.440 But you haven't

00:26:05.380 seen it yet.

00:26:06.040 Oh, you will see it.

00:26:07.220 But when you do,

00:26:08.040 oh, wow.

00:26:09.460 Right?

00:26:09.720 So, that's step two.

00:26:10.720 That happened in both cases.

00:26:12.580 And it was Adam Schiff

00:26:13.460 both times, right?

00:26:15.020 Oh, we got plenty of proof.

00:26:17.100 Then,

00:26:17.760 when they go to show

00:26:18.800 their proof,

00:26:19.580 you see it doesn't exist.

00:26:21.780 So, that's what happened

00:26:22.680 with the Russia collusion.

00:26:23.920 And now it's happening

00:26:25.560 with January 6th.

00:26:27.020 They showed their work

00:26:27.960 and there's nothing there.

00:26:29.760 What do they do?

00:26:31.300 Oh, I guess we were

00:26:32.120 wrong about this.

00:26:33.460 Nope.

00:26:34.320 They shift their message

00:26:35.980 to Russia interference

00:26:39.160 in the case of collusion.

00:26:40.920 And then,

00:26:41.640 if you're a Democrat

00:26:42.460 who isn't watching

00:26:43.360 the news too carefully,

00:26:44.740 or actually,

00:26:45.260 I take that back.

00:26:46.280 Even if you're a Democrat

00:26:47.280 who's watching

00:26:47.880 the news carefully,

00:26:49.140 what do you say

00:26:50.220 when a Republican says,

00:26:51.580 but that Russia collusion

00:26:53.740 thing was debunked.

00:26:55.300 What do they always say?

00:26:57.320 No, it wasn't.

00:26:59.240 No, it wasn't.

00:27:00.400 Because the Russians

00:27:01.140 were known to interfere

00:27:02.280 with the elections.

00:27:03.560 Right?

00:27:04.760 They changed the topic

00:27:06.260 but act like

00:27:08.320 it was the same topic.

00:27:09.980 No, Russia collusion

00:27:11.280 was totally debunked.

00:27:14.240 Russian interference

00:27:15.240 is a fact we all agree on

00:27:17.720 because we saw

00:27:18.460 the troll farm

00:27:19.160 and we saw the memes.

00:27:21.580 But how many people

00:27:23.380 who know about

00:27:24.080 Russia interfering

00:27:25.000 know that some

00:27:26.680 of the memes

00:27:27.260 were anti-Hillary Clinton

00:27:29.120 and some were anti-Trump?

00:27:31.400 More of them were anti-Trump.

00:27:33.320 More of them were anti-Trump?

00:27:35.300 Anyway,

00:27:35.980 but anyway,

00:27:36.600 there was a mix.

00:27:37.520 I think I had that backwards.

00:27:38.820 But there was a mix.

00:27:40.400 The same troll farm

00:27:41.520 that was supposed

00:27:42.060 to be interfering

00:27:42.720 with the election,

00:27:43.860 I guess they were

00:27:44.780 because they sent out

00:27:45.520 some memes,

00:27:46.800 spent $100,000

00:27:47.800 which is basically nothing.

00:27:49.400 And the memes

00:27:51.400 were all weak

00:27:51.980 and none of them

00:27:54.060 became viral.

00:27:55.700 So the Democrats

00:27:56.620 have the same technique.

00:27:58.040 They hear there's

00:27:58.880 this big claim.

00:28:00.820 They hear there's evidence

00:28:02.180 that hasn't been shown.

00:28:03.760 And then once they're

00:28:04.500 so sure it must be true

00:28:05.760 because there's all

00:28:06.480 this evidence

00:28:06.980 that hasn't been shown,

00:28:08.280 then when the Democrats

00:28:09.520 have to show their evidence,

00:28:10.920 it's not there.

00:28:11.720 None of it.

00:28:12.380 Zero.

00:28:13.620 And then they shift

00:28:14.740 the argument

00:28:15.220 to something that's

00:28:15.960 sort of in the same

00:28:16.980 conversation or domain

00:28:18.480 but not really.

00:28:19.980 So shifting it

00:28:20.780 from collusion

00:28:21.560 to interference

00:28:22.440 so that they can claim

00:28:24.920 collusion still happened.

00:28:27.060 Now, proving interference

00:28:28.620 has nothing to do

00:28:30.600 with collusion.

00:28:31.800 But they sold it.

00:28:33.540 And when I talked

00:28:34.640 to my Democrat friend

00:28:35.640 that I always mention,

00:28:37.300 my Democrat friend

00:28:38.220 who I learned

00:28:39.120 what Democrats

00:28:39.800 are thinking,

00:28:40.420 very smart,

00:28:41.220 very well informed,

00:28:42.840 actually believes

00:28:43.700 that the Russia

00:28:44.260 collusion thing

00:28:45.020 was essentially proven

00:28:46.140 because the Russia

00:28:47.340 interference was proven.

00:28:48.480 also proven

00:28:51.160 to be trivial

00:28:51.860 and having no impact

00:28:54.200 whatsoever

00:28:54.720 as far as we know.

00:28:57.700 And then separately

00:28:59.140 there's the hacking thing

00:29:00.320 but I don't know.

00:29:01.680 We don't even know

00:29:02.280 who did that.

00:29:03.540 Our government

00:29:03.960 tells us that Russia

00:29:04.940 definitely,

00:29:05.600 absolutely definitely

00:29:06.600 was the hacker

00:29:07.640 for,

00:29:08.140 was it

00:29:08.500 the DNC hack?

00:29:12.440 Would you believe

00:29:13.400 anything that

00:29:13.980 our intelligence services

00:29:15.120 tells you about

00:29:15.800 the source of a hack?

00:29:16.840 a big no.

00:29:20.520 Big no.

00:29:21.520 So would you say

00:29:22.880 that we have evidence

00:29:24.000 or even proof

00:29:25.260 that Russia

00:29:27.320 hacked the election?

00:29:29.360 I would say

00:29:30.180 the only evidence

00:29:30.960 that you and I have

00:29:31.980 comes from the

00:29:33.480 least credible source

00:29:35.060 which is our own

00:29:36.940 intelligence agencies.

00:29:39.120 You know they're not

00:29:40.100 supposed to tell

00:29:40.720 the truth, right?

00:29:41.460 It's not even

00:29:42.900 their job.

00:29:45.000 Nobody wants

00:29:45.940 the intelligence agencies

00:29:47.060 telling the truth.

00:29:48.460 Do they?

00:29:49.520 They wouldn't be

00:29:50.040 very good at their job

00:29:51.060 if they told the truth.

00:29:53.140 So no.

00:29:54.720 Some deception

00:29:55.680 is part of the,

00:29:56.600 part of what they do.

00:29:58.140 So I don't think

00:29:58.900 you could have

00:29:59.400 a less credible

00:30:00.680 source

00:30:01.820 than our intelligence agencies.

00:30:03.720 You all agree

00:30:04.320 with that, right?

00:30:05.180 That's the lowest

00:30:06.000 level of credibility

00:30:07.200 in this country.

00:30:08.860 And that's,

00:30:09.280 that's the only source.

00:30:10.220 So I would say

00:30:11.820 if you had to bet

00:30:12.800 whether Russia

00:30:13.820 was the source

00:30:14.500 of the election,

00:30:14.900 I would actually

00:30:15.340 bet against it.

00:30:17.200 Maybe 60-40 situation.

00:30:19.600 I'm not going to,

00:30:20.480 I wouldn't,

00:30:21.380 I wouldn't say

00:30:22.740 I know Russia

00:30:23.940 didn't do the hack.

00:30:25.300 I can't know that.

00:30:27.340 But the only source

00:30:28.540 we have that they did it

00:30:29.360 is literally

00:30:30.100 the least credible source

00:30:31.860 in the United States,

00:30:32.880 intelligence agencies.

00:30:34.820 So put that

00:30:35.800 in your pipe

00:30:36.340 and smoke it.

00:30:37.760 So now let's

00:30:38.920 take this to the,

00:30:39.880 January 6th narrative.

00:30:41.620 The original claim

00:30:42.540 is that there was

00:30:43.460 a planned insurrection

00:30:44.700 and Trump was part of it.

00:30:46.620 And then they show us

00:30:47.640 evidence that Don Jr.

00:30:49.180 had no idea

00:30:49.900 that there was

00:30:50.300 a planned insurrection.

00:30:53.080 They should have

00:30:53.840 stopped it right there.

00:30:55.420 To me,

00:30:55.800 that's just funny.

00:30:57.620 Right?

00:30:58.440 It's not even like

00:30:59.340 a good point.

00:30:59.980 It's just kind of funny.

00:31:01.520 Like, really?

00:31:02.260 Really?

00:31:03.600 And have you

00:31:04.680 tried this test yet?

00:31:05.940 Try to get a Democrat

00:31:06.800 to answer the question,

00:31:07.900 how do you explain

00:31:09.120 that Don Jr.,

00:31:10.400 according to his

00:31:11.000 text messages,

00:31:12.220 how do you explain

00:31:12.840 that he didn't know

00:31:13.480 there was a planned

00:31:14.120 insurrection?

00:31:16.260 I mean,

00:31:16.460 just watch their faces

00:31:17.660 when they ask that.

00:31:18.780 Well,

00:31:19.300 I'm a little curious.

00:31:21.020 You think there was

00:31:21.640 an insurrection

00:31:22.160 and Don Jr.

00:31:23.040 didn't get wind of it?

00:31:24.600 Not only was he not

00:31:25.680 brought into the plan,

00:31:26.640 but apparently

00:31:27.160 he hadn't even

00:31:27.620 heard of it.

00:31:28.100 Not even the rumor mill.

00:31:32.840 Ivanka?

00:31:33.720 Never heard of it.

00:31:36.460 But yet,

00:31:37.120 the Democrats buy it.

00:31:38.000 All right.

00:31:38.700 So now that their

00:31:39.560 planned insurrection

00:31:40.700 narrative has

00:31:41.780 completely dissolved

00:31:42.820 in sunlight,

00:31:44.360 will they say,

00:31:45.200 well,

00:31:45.560 you know,

00:31:46.580 we looked

00:31:47.100 and there was

00:31:47.460 nothing there?

00:31:48.820 No.

00:31:49.800 They will morph it,

00:31:51.260 just like collusion

00:31:52.280 became interference.

00:31:54.320 Now it's becoming,

00:31:56.200 he should have done

00:31:57.120 more sooner

00:31:58.000 to stop it.

00:31:59.860 Right?

00:32:00.120 They've pivoted to

00:32:01.060 he should have done

00:32:01.800 more sooner.

00:32:03.000 And that's just as bad.

00:32:05.120 Because by not doing

00:32:06.360 more and sooner,

00:32:08.480 he shows that really

00:32:09.860 he didn't want

00:32:10.340 to do something.

00:32:13.280 Now,

00:32:14.660 can you think of

00:32:15.520 anything else in the world,

00:32:16.960 in any domain,

00:32:19.740 that's something

00:32:20.620 that's good,

00:32:21.700 something that we'd all

00:32:22.480 agree would be

00:32:23.140 a good outcome,

00:32:24.300 that was done

00:32:25.340 soon enough?

00:32:28.120 Nothing.

00:32:29.300 Nothing.

00:32:30.120 Nothing is done fast

00:32:31.340 if it's good.

00:32:32.620 If it's good,

00:32:33.480 it always takes too long.

00:32:36.720 It always seems like

00:32:37.800 it takes too long,

00:32:38.680 right?

00:32:39.260 So when you look

00:32:40.020 at these numbers,

00:32:40.700 you can say,

00:32:41.180 oh, it took too long.

00:32:42.880 And you'd probably be right.

00:32:44.840 It did take too long.

00:32:47.620 But isn't that everything?

00:32:50.860 How about a little context?

00:32:52.880 Literally,

00:32:53.500 everything that's good

00:32:54.760 and should be done

00:32:55.580 takes too long.

00:32:57.760 Takes too long.

00:32:59.440 If you look at it

00:33:00.300 after the fact,

00:33:01.100 you will always say,

00:33:02.420 you know,

00:33:02.700 you should have known

00:33:03.380 to do this faster,

00:33:04.460 right?

00:33:05.360 So if all they have left

00:33:06.880 is literally

00:33:07.680 the most generic

00:33:09.180 criticism

00:33:10.220 of everything,

00:33:12.220 do you know

00:33:12.740 this January 6th

00:33:13.940 hearings?

00:33:15.900 Don't you think

00:33:16.580 these should have

00:33:17.000 been done sooner

00:33:17.720 and better?

00:33:20.980 Yeah.

00:33:21.380 Do you know

00:33:22.800 why they should have

00:33:23.340 been done sooner

00:33:24.240 and better?

00:33:25.440 Because every

00:33:26.360 fucking thing

00:33:27.260 should be done

00:33:27.840 sooner and better.

00:33:28.620 Every fucking thing.

00:33:29.900 There's nothing good

00:33:31.000 that you want

00:33:32.960 that shouldn't be done

00:33:34.000 sooner and fucking

00:33:35.000 better and more.

00:33:36.160 Right?

00:33:36.700 So that's all they have.

00:33:38.920 All they have

00:33:40.000 is the most

00:33:40.720 generic complaint.

00:33:43.780 But,

00:33:44.620 will they say,

00:33:45.980 all right,

00:33:46.220 this is all we have

00:33:47.000 is our generic complaint

00:33:48.120 should have been done

00:33:48.740 sooner and more.

00:33:50.120 Should have been more.

00:33:51.680 No.

00:33:52.580 They will use

00:33:53.520 the small win

00:33:55.080 that he should have

00:33:56.200 done it sooner,

00:33:57.020 which largely

00:33:57.600 Republicans are also

00:33:58.840 thinking,

00:33:59.220 hmm,

00:33:59.960 maybe he should have

00:34:00.580 done more sooner.

00:34:01.600 Right?

00:34:02.020 That part I'm not

00:34:02.800 even going to argue.

00:34:04.440 But they're going

00:34:05.120 to use that part

00:34:05.820 that he should have

00:34:06.380 done more sooner

00:34:07.200 to make their

00:34:08.720 ignorant base

00:34:10.060 believe that they

00:34:11.500 proved a planned

00:34:12.640 insurrection.

00:34:13.240 And it will work.

00:34:15.800 It will work.

00:34:17.000 How do I know

00:34:17.520 it'll work?

00:34:18.520 Because it works

00:34:19.000 every time.

00:34:20.240 It's never not

00:34:21.120 worked.

00:34:22.100 It works every time.

00:34:23.940 All they have to do

00:34:24.840 is make a big claim,

00:34:27.100 say that they have

00:34:27.820 secret evidence,

00:34:28.620 and then it hardens

00:34:29.460 in people's minds

00:34:30.340 and they believe

00:34:30.840 it's true.

00:34:31.660 Once they've convinced

00:34:32.880 people to believe

00:34:33.600 it's true,

00:34:35.040 then cognitive

00:34:35.860 dissonance and

00:34:36.800 confirmation bias

00:34:37.680 will kick in.

00:34:38.380 And everything

00:34:39.420 they see after that

00:34:40.380 will make them think

00:34:41.120 it's been proven,

00:34:42.280 even if the thing

00:34:43.520 happening is

00:34:44.740 literally debunking it.

00:34:46.960 They will still think

00:34:47.780 that the energy

00:34:48.640 is proving it.

00:34:50.860 They just say

00:34:51.660 there's something

00:34:52.080 happening,

00:34:53.200 and I know

00:34:53.760 it's true,

00:34:55.040 so therefore

00:34:55.540 the thing happening

00:34:56.340 must be proving it,

00:34:58.460 when in fact

00:34:59.040 the thing happening

00:34:59.620 is the opposite.

00:35:01.140 Now, how do you

00:35:01.920 get away with

00:35:02.440 something that

00:35:02.920 ridiculous?

00:35:04.600 Well, you have to

00:35:05.140 have the press

00:35:05.620 on your side.

00:35:07.120 If the press

00:35:07.980 is on your side,

00:35:09.140 you can sell

00:35:09.760 anything to your

00:35:10.800 own base.

00:35:11.260 politics.

00:35:13.100 So we've gotten

00:35:13.840 to the point

00:35:14.280 where politics

00:35:15.180 is not about

00:35:16.160 convincing the

00:35:16.860 other side,

00:35:17.480 because that

00:35:17.780 can't be done.

00:35:19.100 It's about

00:35:19.900 getting your own

00:35:21.860 side pregnant

00:35:22.560 with a belief

00:35:23.800 that doesn't

00:35:24.260 have evidence,

00:35:25.480 and knowing that

00:35:26.380 they won't

00:35:26.760 change their mind.

00:35:28.960 So basically,

00:35:29.860 bamboozling your

00:35:30.680 own team is now

00:35:31.840 all of politics.

00:35:33.480 Do you remember

00:35:34.000 when it used to

00:35:34.600 be fooling the

00:35:35.240 other team?

00:35:35.680 Am I wrong that

00:35:37.680 that used to be

00:35:38.220 the way it worked?

00:35:39.720 You could count

00:35:40.620 on your party

00:35:41.580 maybe being on

00:35:42.420 your side,

00:35:42.960 but the whole

00:35:43.300 thing was try to

00:35:44.020 convince the

00:35:44.480 other team.

00:35:46.400 And now they

00:35:46.920 don't even try to

00:35:47.620 convince the

00:35:48.060 other team.

00:35:48.700 There's no effort

00:35:49.420 to convince a

00:35:50.020 Republican of

00:35:50.600 anything.

00:35:51.440 There's only effort

00:35:52.340 to brainwash

00:35:53.240 their own people

00:35:54.080 using this

00:35:55.640 technique of

00:35:56.380 the big claim,

00:35:57.480 the no evidence,

00:35:58.700 followed by the

00:35:59.420 small claim that

00:36:00.360 people conflate

00:36:01.200 with the big

00:36:01.640 claim later.

00:36:03.140 But the technique

00:36:04.000 works every time.

00:36:06.680 Yeah, it's a

00:36:07.400 form of hypnosis.

00:36:08.880 You are right.

00:36:10.700 Should have

00:36:11.340 acted sooner.

00:36:16.460 So that's how

00:36:17.400 it all works.

00:36:18.760 Now there's a

00:36:19.580 new study I saw.

00:36:21.320 It was on Twitter.

00:36:22.560 And it says that

00:36:25.120 basically it breaks

00:36:26.340 down what kind of

00:36:27.040 conspiracy theories

00:36:28.260 the left believes

00:36:30.980 versus the right.

00:36:32.760 And you can see a

00:36:33.400 whole bunch of

00:36:33.840 conspiracy theories

00:36:34.940 that are attributed

00:36:35.900 to the political

00:36:37.000 right.

00:36:38.120 Lots and lots

00:36:39.300 of them.

00:36:40.180 And then you can

00:36:40.740 see some that are

00:36:41.340 attributed to the

00:36:42.040 left, just so it's

00:36:43.560 complete.

00:36:45.920 Yeah, like what?

00:36:47.400 Okay, you're asking

00:36:48.240 the right question.

00:36:49.420 Like what?

00:36:51.180 What would be an

00:36:52.060 example, what would

00:36:54.340 be one example of a

00:36:56.440 Republican conspiracy

00:36:57.660 theory?

00:36:58.900 Well, this gentleman

00:37:00.400 who did, or whoever

00:37:01.500 did the study, had on

00:37:03.180 their list, the

00:37:04.300 existence of the

00:37:05.700 elite pedophile ring.

00:37:09.140 That would now be

00:37:10.360 considered, according

00:37:11.040 to the study, that's a

00:37:12.040 conspiracy theory with

00:37:13.860 no evidence.

00:37:17.480 Except that it's been

00:37:18.560 proven.

00:37:20.620 Did they miss the

00:37:21.600 whole Epstein story?

00:37:23.920 Isn't the entire

00:37:24.860 Epstein story about

00:37:25.860 underage girls and

00:37:28.940 not just Epstein, but

00:37:30.760 a ring of people in

00:37:32.140 power whose names

00:37:33.840 have not been

00:37:34.900 released for reasons

00:37:36.120 we don't understand,

00:37:37.500 except that obviously

00:37:38.440 they're in power.

00:37:40.300 Right?

00:37:41.200 So, as of today,

00:37:44.000 let me establish in

00:37:45.680 public, I've been a

00:37:47.900 big skeptic of the

00:37:49.580 elite pedophile ring.

00:37:51.820 Never, you know, I

00:37:54.140 never bought into

00:37:54.900 Pizzagate.

00:37:56.620 I never bought any

00:37:57.440 of it.

00:37:58.180 Zero percent

00:37:59.100 credibility, in my

00:38:00.380 opinion.

00:38:01.600 Until today.

00:38:03.020 Because once somebody

00:38:04.140 says, well, you

00:38:04.960 forgot about Epstein,

00:38:05.920 I'm like, oh, yeah.

00:38:07.600 I don't really think of

00:38:08.500 him as a pedophile

00:38:09.360 because the age of

00:38:12.340 his, let's call them

00:38:13.320 victims, because that's

00:38:14.280 the law, is above the

00:38:16.620 pedophile cutoff.

00:38:18.300 There's some other name

00:38:19.200 for that, right?

00:38:20.520 It's still illegal.

00:38:21.820 It's still rape.

00:38:23.640 But what's the name

00:38:24.200 of it?

00:38:26.000 There's some other

00:38:26.940 name for that, right?

00:38:31.800 I'm seeing all kinds

00:38:32.820 of names for it.

00:38:34.240 Anyway, so if somebody

00:38:36.240 is above some age,

00:38:37.420 let's say it's 16, I

00:38:38.700 don't know what the

00:38:39.080 age is, then it has

00:38:40.420 some other word, not

00:38:41.280 pedophile.

00:38:43.620 But whatever it is.

00:38:45.220 So, yeah, so it's

00:38:46.500 still a crime.

00:38:47.420 You know, we're not

00:38:48.020 going to minimize it.

00:38:49.200 But the...

00:38:50.340 But if you call that

00:38:53.360 pedophilia, and I think

00:38:55.020 the way it's being used

00:38:56.140 by Republicans is

00:38:58.320 they're using it

00:38:58.940 expansively, meaning

00:39:00.080 to include statutory

00:39:01.540 rape.

00:39:03.960 If you include that,

00:39:05.680 then I would say the

00:39:06.640 advanced pedophile ring

00:39:08.320 is proven.

00:39:09.720 I would say that's

00:39:10.540 just in evidence at

00:39:11.420 this point.

00:39:12.400 Do you agree?

00:39:12.820 Now, anything with

00:39:15.240 people younger than

00:39:16.440 whatever Epstein was

00:39:17.960 doing, actually, he

00:39:19.600 went even younger than

00:39:20.480 16, didn't he?

00:39:21.540 Yeah, he went 14,

00:39:22.560 didn't he?

00:39:23.620 Yeah, he went all the

00:39:24.220 way to 14.

00:39:25.180 So I'm not sure what

00:39:26.160 labels you put on that.

00:39:28.020 But I'm going to

00:39:28.540 accept the common use

00:39:32.000 of the word in

00:39:32.820 politics, which is

00:39:34.000 underage people.

00:39:35.520 So I think that's

00:39:37.040 proven.

00:39:37.700 So here's the problem

00:39:38.480 with somebody who

00:39:39.220 tells you, I'm going to

00:39:40.560 do a study of what

00:39:41.700 conspiracies, theories,

00:39:43.040 each side believes.

00:39:45.340 Somebody has to be

00:39:46.420 the god.

00:39:48.060 Somebody has to be

00:39:48.940 the judge of what

00:39:50.100 is true and what's

00:39:50.900 not.

00:39:51.560 Otherwise, you don't

00:39:52.260 know what's a

00:39:52.660 conspiracy theory and

00:39:53.680 what's just a fact.

00:39:55.260 So you can't do this

00:39:56.440 study.

00:39:57.660 This is an undoable

00:39:59.340 study because it

00:40:00.900 requires somebody to

00:40:02.840 know what's true.

00:40:04.440 And nobody does.

00:40:05.940 Nobody does.

00:40:07.100 Let me give you an

00:40:07.840 example of how bad

00:40:08.620 this is.

00:40:09.620 It's a pretty long

00:40:11.140 list of alleged

00:40:12.960 conspiracy theories.

00:40:15.020 But one of the

00:40:16.320 things that's not on

00:40:17.340 it is the fine

00:40:18.620 people hoax and

00:40:20.740 the drinking bleach

00:40:21.800 hoax, to which you

00:40:23.620 say, well, wait, is

00:40:24.660 a conspiracy theory

00:40:25.960 the same as a

00:40:27.340 hoax?

00:40:28.320 Well, in this case,

00:40:29.020 it is because the

00:40:30.360 press and the

00:40:31.120 Democrats colluded

00:40:32.220 to make you think

00:40:34.300 that something that

00:40:35.020 didn't happen

00:40:35.660 definitely totally

00:40:36.760 happened right in

00:40:37.380 front of you.

00:40:37.780 if a whole bunch of

00:40:39.780 people coordinate to

00:40:41.720 sell you something

00:40:42.460 that's not true, that

00:40:44.720 feels like a

00:40:45.340 conspiracy theory to

00:40:46.320 me.

00:40:47.280 I mean, I usually

00:40:47.920 call it a hoax, but

00:40:50.120 I would call that.

00:40:52.080 So those are not on

00:40:53.060 his list.

00:40:54.240 Do you know what's

00:40:54.820 on his list?

00:40:57.660 I'll have to call up

00:40:58.620 my own Twitter feed

00:40:59.680 here.

00:41:00.320 But the point I'm

00:41:01.080 going to make while

00:41:01.720 I'm looking for it is

00:41:03.760 that there was a whole

00:41:04.780 bunch of stuff on that

00:41:05.720 list I'd never heard

00:41:06.620 of.

00:41:07.780 And does it feel

00:41:09.140 fair that you would

00:41:09.900 leave off the

00:41:10.740 drinking bleach hoax

00:41:11.840 and the fine people

00:41:12.800 hoax that permeated

00:41:15.020 every part of

00:41:15.880 politics and literally

00:41:16.900 everybody heard about?

00:41:18.980 Do you compare that

00:41:19.960 to a conspiracy theory

00:41:21.140 that some Republicans

00:41:22.640 have, but you never

00:41:24.000 even heard of it?

00:41:25.300 You never heard of

00:41:26.020 it.

00:41:26.600 How are those on the

00:41:27.380 same list?

00:41:28.120 You've got to wait

00:41:28.640 these things a little

00:41:29.380 bit, right?

00:41:31.000 So over in local,

00:41:32.080 somebody's already

00:41:32.800 posted that bit.

00:41:35.060 All right, so I

00:41:35.760 called it up.

00:41:36.320 So here are some

00:41:37.180 of the things that

00:41:39.180 are called a hoax.

00:41:42.880 Democrats infecting

00:41:43.960 Trump with COVID.

00:41:45.400 I've never heard

00:41:46.160 that.

00:41:48.160 Have you ever even

00:41:48.880 heard that?

00:41:52.820 Is that like a

00:41:53.700 hoax?

00:41:54.480 I've never heard

00:41:55.240 it.

00:41:56.040 So it's like number

00:41:57.040 five on the spread

00:41:58.260 or something.

00:41:59.880 That COVID is being

00:42:01.100 spread on purpose.

00:42:02.140 I've never heard

00:42:02.580 that one.

00:42:02.900 I mean, it's the

00:42:04.280 type of things

00:42:04.740 people noodle

00:42:05.380 about, but I've

00:42:06.180 never heard any

00:42:06.640 believe it.

00:42:07.840 How about the

00:42:09.720 FDA promotes

00:42:10.820 cancer?

00:42:12.520 That's a right

00:42:13.300 wing.

00:42:14.800 I've never heard

00:42:15.600 that.

00:42:16.240 Have you ever

00:42:16.540 heard the right

00:42:16.980 wing say that the

00:42:17.820 FDA promotes

00:42:18.680 cancer?

00:42:20.200 What?

00:42:22.520 How about

00:42:23.320 government mind

00:42:28.840 control?

00:42:29.300 Are you kidding

00:42:30.580 me?

00:42:31.300 Government mind

00:42:32.260 control is

00:42:33.040 listed as not

00:42:35.040 real.

00:42:36.140 What?

00:42:37.380 Have you ever

00:42:38.080 heard of the

00:42:38.520 Pledge of

00:42:39.240 Allegiance?

00:42:40.340 The Pledge of

00:42:41.360 Allegiance is

00:42:42.060 overt government

00:42:44.360 mind control.

00:42:45.720 That's not even

00:42:46.620 hidden.

00:42:47.860 The Pledge of

00:42:48.720 Allegiance, the

00:42:50.580 National Anthem,

00:42:53.040 the American

00:42:53.540 Flag, that is

00:42:56.140 all government

00:42:57.640 mind control.

00:42:58.520 that is a

00:43:02.200 feature.

00:43:03.000 It's not even a

00:43:04.200 flaw.

00:43:05.740 How in the

00:43:06.860 world is this

00:43:07.460 some kind of

00:43:08.200 conspiracy theory?

00:43:09.800 Now I know

00:43:10.180 you're MK

00:43:10.700 Ultra and

00:43:11.540 there's a

00:43:13.580 belief that

00:43:14.000 there are

00:43:14.260 things that

00:43:14.760 they're training

00:43:16.280 us in that

00:43:17.320 we don't know

00:43:17.860 about, but

00:43:18.440 that's just a

00:43:20.080 fact.

00:43:21.700 Everything the

00:43:22.420 government does

00:43:23.300 has an element

00:43:24.620 of public

00:43:26.240 thought management,

00:43:28.240 how in the

00:43:29.580 world is that

00:43:30.200 a conspiracy

00:43:30.800 theory?

00:43:31.720 How about

00:43:33.820 Holocaust denial?

00:43:35.880 Now that's a

00:43:36.500 real conspiracy

00:43:38.000 theory.

00:43:40.440 What percentage

00:43:41.500 of people on

00:43:42.080 the right deny

00:43:43.020 the Holocaust?

00:43:45.080 If you had to

00:43:45.620 guess, what

00:43:47.080 percentage think

00:43:47.940 it didn't happen

00:43:48.520 at all?

00:43:49.360 Like none of it

00:43:50.100 happened.

00:43:52.280 Yeah, 1%.

00:43:53.440 So why does

00:43:54.780 that get on

00:43:55.260 the list?

00:43:55.600 Why is there a

00:43:56.140 1% thing on

00:43:57.080 the list?

00:43:57.940 Something about

00:43:58.520 FDR and Pearl

00:43:59.420 Harbor, the MLK

00:44:00.640 assassination, fake

00:44:02.960 moon landings.

00:44:03.840 Well, that was

00:44:04.240 just fun.

00:44:05.180 A lot of people

00:44:05.640 say that, but I

00:44:06.640 think that's just

00:44:07.160 fun, actually.

00:44:08.760 The government

00:44:09.300 assassinating

00:44:10.100 entertainers.

00:44:12.220 Have you ever

00:44:13.000 heard that?

00:44:14.340 What conspiracy

00:44:15.140 theory says the

00:44:16.040 government is

00:44:16.640 assassinating

00:44:17.480 entertainers?

00:44:19.040 Like most of

00:44:19.840 you are lean

00:44:20.700 right.

00:44:21.060 You haven't even

00:44:21.500 heard of this.

00:44:22.620 So when you

00:44:23.660 see a study

00:44:24.180 like this, this

00:44:24.760 is completely

00:44:25.460 fraudulent.

00:44:26.860 Completely.

00:44:27.740 But I also

00:44:28.360 don't know if

00:44:28.920 they thought it

00:44:29.480 was real.

00:44:30.900 Because, you

00:44:31.560 know, people

00:44:31.840 are operating in

00:44:32.560 their bubble.

00:44:33.360 They might have

00:44:33.960 thought this was

00:44:34.600 useful and real

00:44:35.500 and telling us

00:44:36.220 something.

00:44:37.000 It tells us

00:44:37.980 nothing.

00:44:38.400 It just tells us

00:44:39.100 that if a

00:44:40.340 Democrat does a

00:44:42.700 study about people

00:44:44.100 believing the

00:44:44.740 wrong things, it

00:44:46.040 will look

00:44:46.400 completely different

00:44:47.400 than if a

00:44:48.140 Republican did

00:44:48.780 the same study.

00:44:50.120 Because they

00:44:50.480 both be in the

00:44:51.280 God position and

00:44:52.280 neither of them

00:44:52.760 could pull it

00:44:53.260 off.

00:44:55.080 All right.

00:44:57.480 Ladies and

00:44:58.100 gentlemen, is

00:44:59.460 there anything

00:45:00.000 that I left

00:45:00.720 down?

00:45:04.100 Let me tell you

00:45:05.100 a little personal

00:45:05.820 story.

00:45:07.240 That's just the

00:45:07.760 weirdest thing.

00:45:09.420 So yesterday I

00:45:10.240 had an extended

00:45:10.920 conversation regarding

00:45:14.100 my desire to buy

00:45:16.600 a guitar.

00:45:17.160 guitar.

00:45:18.420 So I planned to

00:45:20.180 get a guitar for

00:45:21.240 myself for

00:45:21.760 Christmas.

00:45:22.460 Like I like to

00:45:23.060 plan my own

00:45:23.640 Christmas presents

00:45:24.460 to myself.

00:45:25.980 And it's because

00:45:26.780 my drumming is

00:45:27.460 coming along and

00:45:28.580 I heard that

00:45:29.460 learning the

00:45:30.280 guitar might be

00:45:30.980 easier.

00:45:31.280 Yeah, I would do

00:45:32.080 electric guitar.

00:45:33.760 And so it's not

00:45:36.380 usual that I would

00:45:37.840 have a conversation

00:45:38.600 about playing an

00:45:39.340 electric guitar.

00:45:40.740 In fact, I don't

00:45:41.960 remember the last

00:45:42.540 time I did if I

00:45:43.480 ever have.

00:45:43.880 All right.

00:45:44.880 So I have this

00:45:45.640 extended conversation

00:45:46.720 about me playing

00:45:47.880 an electric guitar.

00:45:49.540 Then I go to an

00:45:51.640 event for my

00:45:53.160 oldest stepdaughter.

00:45:55.460 And she's

00:45:57.020 engaged, getting

00:45:58.840 engaged to be

00:45:59.580 married.

00:46:00.560 Whatever it is,

00:46:01.260 she's engaged, I

00:46:01.900 guess.

00:46:02.600 And so it was

00:46:03.100 just an event and

00:46:04.160 there was a musical

00:46:06.000 entertainment.

00:46:07.900 There were two

00:46:08.660 guitar players.

00:46:10.340 One of them

00:46:11.000 looked like me.

00:46:12.560 Not only did he

00:46:14.220 look like me, but

00:46:15.380 he looked like me

00:46:16.200 enough that every

00:46:17.520 single person at the

00:46:18.600 party came up to me

00:46:19.540 and said, that guitar

00:46:20.980 player looks like you.

00:46:22.780 Now, what is going

00:46:25.020 on here?

00:46:26.100 It would be one

00:46:26.860 thing if I thought

00:46:28.640 he looked like me

00:46:29.480 because I was primed

00:46:31.920 to think of myself

00:46:32.780 in guitars.

00:46:34.120 And so when I

00:46:34.600 looked at him, I

00:46:35.100 thought, that looks

00:46:36.020 like me playing the

00:46:36.760 guitar.

00:46:38.200 But everybody

00:46:38.760 else thought it.

00:46:39.600 And they were not

00:46:40.200 primed by the topic.

00:46:41.380 They didn't know I

00:46:42.000 was interested in

00:46:42.860 the guitar.

00:46:43.380 Nobody knew it.

00:46:44.780 And there he was.

00:46:45.580 It was like the

00:46:46.160 talk of the event

00:46:47.180 that the guitar

00:46:47.980 player looked like

00:46:48.660 me.

00:46:49.400 And the funny

00:46:49.920 thing was that

00:46:50.660 during a break,

00:46:51.880 I was standing

00:46:52.560 outside and the

00:46:53.860 guitar player walks

00:46:54.700 past me on his

00:46:55.460 break.

00:46:56.140 And I called down

00:46:57.260 to him and I

00:46:57.740 said, hey, you're

00:46:59.360 me.

00:47:00.460 And he looks at me

00:47:01.320 and he laughs.

00:47:02.140 And I go, you're

00:47:02.700 me, you're me.

00:47:03.980 And he just laughed

00:47:04.700 and he walked away

00:47:05.240 because he could

00:47:05.820 see it too.

00:47:07.100 As soon as he

00:47:07.860 looked at me, he

00:47:08.760 was like, yeah,

00:47:09.700 I'm you.

00:47:11.240 It was pretty

00:47:11.880 weird.

00:47:12.680 So let me tell

00:47:13.440 you my idea for

00:47:14.640 a startup, which

00:47:16.740 is one of my

00:47:17.260 best ideas ever.

00:47:18.740 And nobody's

00:47:19.260 ever done it.

00:47:19.800 So feel free to

00:47:20.700 steal this, you

00:47:21.540 know, whoever

00:47:21.820 gets to it first.

00:47:23.460 There should be

00:47:24.120 an app in which

00:47:25.140 you can find the

00:47:26.100 people on earth

00:47:26.940 who look the

00:47:27.460 most like you.

00:47:30.700 You might say,

00:47:31.640 why?

00:47:31.940 Oh, tell me you

00:47:34.440 wouldn't use that

00:47:35.280 app.

00:47:36.200 Come on, I don't

00:47:36.660 need a why.

00:47:37.680 I don't need a

00:47:38.500 why.

00:47:39.260 If that app

00:47:39.940 existed, you

00:47:41.200 would look for

00:47:41.760 your clones.

00:47:43.220 Am I right?

00:47:44.320 Tell me.

00:47:45.480 You know, all you

00:47:45.880 have to do is like

00:47:46.460 put in your

00:47:46.900 picture, let's

00:47:47.440 say, or your

00:47:48.140 stats, your

00:47:49.020 height and

00:47:49.540 weight, whatever.

00:47:51.280 Yeah, you'd all

00:47:52.000 use it.

00:47:52.720 And you would

00:47:53.140 come up with this

00:47:53.700 gigantic list of

00:47:54.640 people who are

00:47:55.180 your height, your

00:47:56.060 weight, and they

00:47:57.000 kind of look like

00:47:57.620 you.

00:47:58.780 Now, what would

00:48:00.000 be useful to do

00:48:01.140 with that?

00:48:03.660 Find out what

00:48:04.420 clothes you look

00:48:05.400 good in for the

00:48:06.220 first time in your

00:48:07.000 life, and know

00:48:09.160 it'll look good

00:48:10.280 on you.

00:48:10.900 Why?

00:48:11.940 Because somebody

00:48:12.520 who looks just

00:48:13.160 like you is

00:48:13.760 rocking that

00:48:14.380 shirt.

00:48:15.260 So if they just

00:48:16.000 show the shirt

00:48:16.580 that they wore,

00:48:17.440 and say, hey,

00:48:18.460 this shirt feels

00:48:19.240 really good.

00:48:20.900 Do you know how

00:48:21.660 many of this

00:48:22.460 t-shirt I could

00:48:23.280 have sold?

00:48:25.700 And that's even

00:48:26.460 to people who

00:48:26.900 don't look like

00:48:27.420 me.

00:48:28.320 But I'll bet

00:48:28.980 you there's a

00:48:29.400 whole bunch of

00:48:29.820 people who have

00:48:30.380 watched this

00:48:30.860 live stream, and

00:48:32.380 said to

00:48:32.780 themselves, oh,

00:48:34.240 my physical

00:48:35.940 shape is similar

00:48:37.760 to his, I'll

00:48:39.440 bet I'd look

00:48:39.920 good in a

00:48:40.320 t-shirt.

00:48:40.860 What one do

00:48:41.280 you wear?

00:48:42.240 Because it

00:48:42.560 looks like it

00:48:43.040 fits good.

00:48:44.440 It sure does.

00:48:44.960 It's fresh,

00:48:46.180 clean tees.

00:48:47.700 Now, if I

00:48:48.400 had a website

00:48:49.060 where somebody

00:48:50.280 could look at

00:48:50.740 me in my

00:48:51.140 t-shirt and

00:48:51.620 say, I need

00:48:52.200 a t-shirt.

00:48:53.620 And by the

00:48:54.040 way, not all

00:48:54.580 t-shirts are

00:48:55.120 good.

00:48:56.180 I mean, it's

00:48:56.740 actually dicey

00:48:57.440 to get a good

00:48:57.920 t-shirt that

00:48:59.420 fits right and

00:49:00.580 launders and

00:49:01.940 doesn't wrinkle

00:49:02.520 and doesn't

00:49:02.980 feel weird and

00:49:03.700 stuff.

00:49:04.540 So, if I

00:49:06.220 had a way to

00:49:07.020 find out how

00:49:08.220 something looks

00:49:09.060 on another

00:49:09.520 person, that's

00:49:12.260 the only way I

00:49:12.980 would shop.

00:49:13.820 I would get

00:49:14.460 rid of all my

00:49:15.420 other shopping

00:49:16.100 methods.

00:49:17.320 And I would

00:49:17.640 just say,

00:49:18.160 scroll, scroll,

00:49:19.300 there's a

00:49:19.720 shirt I want,

00:49:20.560 bing.

00:49:21.340 And there's an

00:49:22.160 Amazon affiliate

00:49:22.980 link, the

00:49:24.240 person who

00:49:24.680 looks like me

00:49:25.260 gets a few

00:49:25.780 cents because I

00:49:26.560 use their link

00:49:27.120 to buy it.

00:49:28.220 Everybody wins.

00:49:30.240 Everybody wins.

00:49:31.040 Hair is a big

00:49:32.780 part of it.

00:49:33.220 You're right.

00:49:33.700 You'd want

00:49:34.020 somebody who

00:49:34.380 had similar

00:49:34.740 hair.

00:49:36.580 All right.

00:49:39.560 How many of

00:49:40.300 you think I

00:49:40.940 can take out

00:49:41.640 the January

00:49:42.620 6 hearings

00:49:43.840 with my

00:49:45.760 reframe?

00:49:46.680 Because it

00:49:47.220 would require

00:49:47.840 other people

00:49:48.520 to accept

00:49:49.440 it and

00:49:49.940 amplify it.

00:49:51.060 And the

00:49:51.380 reframe is

00:49:52.040 that they

00:49:53.220 have debunked

00:49:54.540 their own

00:49:54.960 claim.

00:49:56.160 And I don't

00:49:56.860 think you need

00:49:57.340 to get into

00:49:57.780 the details.

00:49:59.340 Do you?

00:49:59.660 I think we

00:50:00.740 should just

00:50:01.100 say it's a

00:50:01.840 fact.

00:50:02.380 They debunked

00:50:02.960 the claim.

00:50:04.200 And so they've

00:50:04.980 moved to,

00:50:05.860 should a good

00:50:06.300 thing have been

00:50:06.940 done sooner

00:50:07.540 and better?

00:50:09.780 That's it.

00:50:11.080 Should something

00:50:12.160 that definitely

00:50:12.720 should have been

00:50:13.220 done, could it

00:50:14.820 have been done

00:50:15.340 sooner and

00:50:15.880 better?

00:50:16.280 Yes.

00:50:16.620 Just like the

00:50:17.160 January 6 hearings

00:50:18.400 themselves.

00:50:20.300 By waiting,

00:50:21.360 what?

00:50:22.080 How long did

00:50:22.740 they wait for

00:50:23.180 the January 6

00:50:23.860 hearings?

00:50:24.120 A year?

00:50:25.660 A year,

00:50:26.340 right?

00:50:27.720 Don't you think

00:50:28.260 they should have

00:50:28.640 done that sooner?

00:50:29.220 Because a year

00:50:30.040 after, people

00:50:30.760 have moved

00:50:31.660 on a little

00:50:32.080 bit.

00:50:35.160 So I believe

00:50:36.180 that we're

00:50:37.080 going to test

00:50:37.540 this.

00:50:38.280 If today's

00:50:39.160 YouTube

00:50:39.700 live stream

00:50:41.240 gets demonetized

00:50:43.240 or otherwise,

00:50:44.320 or in any way

00:50:45.120 de-boosted,

00:50:46.460 like I suspect

00:50:47.460 the last one

00:50:48.120 did with the

00:50:48.520 same title,

00:50:49.160 or a similar

00:50:49.580 title,

00:50:50.420 I'm going to

00:50:51.280 have some

00:50:51.580 questions.

00:50:52.980 You should

00:50:53.500 also look

00:50:54.160 what happens

00:50:54.740 to my tweets

00:50:55.540 on the same

00:50:56.080 topic.

00:50:57.020 Because I don't

00:50:57.660 know that they're

00:50:58.180 getting suppressed,

00:50:59.220 but if

00:50:59.980 anything was

00:51:00.740 going to get

00:51:01.080 suppressed in

00:51:01.760 this world,

00:51:02.280 it would be

00:51:02.760 me saying

00:51:04.120 that the

00:51:04.440 January 6

00:51:05.100 things have

00:51:05.600 already debunked

00:51:06.640 the allegations.

00:51:08.040 There's nothing

00:51:08.540 more important

00:51:09.040 than that to

00:51:09.620 debunk in the

00:51:10.240 whole world

00:51:10.680 right now.

00:51:11.600 Am I right?

00:51:12.960 The mainstream

00:51:13.820 press should be

00:51:15.740 frantic to try

00:51:17.880 to protect the

00:51:18.680 narrative which

00:51:19.320 is all but

00:51:19.900 dissolved at this

00:51:20.720 point.

00:51:20.960 So they're

00:51:22.300 trying to

00:51:22.720 protect something

00:51:23.380 that's already

00:51:24.020 turned into

00:51:24.560 vapor.

00:51:27.000 But it's

00:51:27.760 still going to

00:51:28.180 work.

00:51:29.620 Remember,

00:51:30.720 their method

00:51:31.500 does not

00:51:32.240 depend on

00:51:34.340 evidence.

00:51:35.660 It does not

00:51:36.300 depend on

00:51:36.780 evidence.

00:51:37.280 It depends on

00:51:38.020 persuasion.

00:51:39.700 And the

00:51:39.980 persuasion

00:51:40.380 worked.

00:51:41.300 But they're

00:51:41.680 going to have

00:51:42.060 to kneecap

00:51:43.980 me pretty soon

00:51:44.700 because I'm

00:51:46.840 going to make

00:51:47.160 too much of a

00:51:47.760 dent at this

00:51:48.760 topic.

00:51:49.060 Oh, here's

00:51:53.260 some good

00:51:53.560 news.

00:51:55.280 Would you

00:51:55.600 like to hear

00:51:55.940 some good

00:51:56.300 news?

00:51:57.100 Did some

00:51:57.640 research yesterday

00:51:58.380 because I

00:51:58.880 assumed that

00:51:59.580 this little

00:52:00.500 problem was

00:52:01.160 probably solved

00:52:01.860 by now.

00:52:02.860 And it's the

00:52:03.280 problem of

00:52:03.780 doing a

00:52:04.320 proper split

00:52:05.540 screen interview

00:52:06.700 live.

00:52:08.400 There are lots

00:52:08.840 of ways to do

00:52:09.380 it if you

00:52:09.700 record it.

00:52:10.320 You can just

00:52:10.680 do a Zoom.

00:52:11.480 That's easy.

00:52:12.460 But to do

00:52:12.920 it live,

00:52:14.440 there were

00:52:15.120 tools that

00:52:16.260 existed but

00:52:17.080 all had some

00:52:17.540 problems.

00:52:18.000 And I

00:52:19.120 tried all

00:52:19.540 the tools

00:52:19.920 that didn't

00:52:20.180 work.

00:52:20.640 But there's

00:52:20.940 one I

00:52:21.200 heard about

00:52:21.640 called

00:52:21.940 Ecamm.

00:52:23.320 I haven't

00:52:23.620 tried it

00:52:23.940 yet.

00:52:24.660 But I

00:52:25.040 saw a video

00:52:25.540 that says

00:52:26.100 somewhat

00:52:27.040 easily you

00:52:27.860 can do a

00:52:28.300 split screen

00:52:28.920 so somebody

00:52:29.480 can call

00:52:29.920 in.

00:52:30.800 Now, if

00:52:32.080 it's true,

00:52:33.900 if that's

00:52:34.400 true, that

00:52:35.320 I can easily

00:52:36.220 get a split

00:52:36.940 screen up and

00:52:37.540 running on

00:52:37.920 YouTube, I

00:52:39.460 know I can

00:52:39.900 do it on

00:52:40.240 Instagram but

00:52:40.900 that's not a

00:52:41.420 platform I'm

00:52:42.100 big on.

00:52:43.000 And I know

00:52:43.320 I can do it

00:52:43.740 on Facebook but

00:52:44.440 I don't like

00:52:44.820 to use Facebook

00:52:45.440 or anything.

00:52:45.840 So I

00:52:47.820 was waiting

00:52:48.220 for YouTube

00:52:48.760 to be able

00:52:49.280 to do it

00:52:49.720 natively, which

00:52:50.780 it still can't

00:52:51.420 do, which is

00:52:52.780 weird.

00:52:54.000 Does anybody

00:52:54.460 know why

00:52:54.980 Google can't

00:52:56.900 figure out how

00:52:57.380 to make YouTube

00:52:58.100 do the main

00:52:58.760 thing that people

00:52:59.320 want to do

00:52:59.760 with it lately,

00:53:00.380 which has more

00:53:01.120 than one person

00:53:01.680 on the screen?

00:53:03.100 I don't understand.

00:53:04.360 It's got to be

00:53:04.800 intentional, right?

00:53:05.640 There must be a

00:53:06.240 reason that they

00:53:06.880 don't want to do

00:53:07.480 it.

00:53:07.940 But it's

00:53:08.260 available through

00:53:08.780 this third

00:53:09.280 party, I'm

00:53:09.980 told, called

00:53:11.300 Ecamm.

00:53:12.080 I would just

00:53:12.480 run it on my

00:53:13.080 end.

00:53:13.280 And then I

00:53:14.420 can invite

00:53:14.880 people.

00:53:17.060 I know how

00:53:18.040 people like

00:53:18.500 Dave Rubin

00:53:19.200 and Joe

00:53:21.020 Rogan do

00:53:21.540 it.

00:53:23.040 And probably

00:53:24.000 Tim Pool, but

00:53:25.120 I don't know as

00:53:25.640 much about his

00:53:26.160 operation.

00:53:27.340 I think the

00:53:27.860 way they do

00:53:28.220 it is they

00:53:28.520 have a

00:53:28.800 dedicated

00:53:29.160 engineer.

00:53:30.720 The ones

00:53:31.780 who use the

00:53:32.580 more complicated

00:53:33.480 approaches,

00:53:34.480 like StreamYard

00:53:35.620 and Vmix

00:53:37.040 and Wirecaster

00:53:39.460 and OBS,

00:53:41.020 all of those

00:53:41.980 have the same

00:53:42.520 problem.

00:53:42.900 There's a

00:53:43.320 delay.

00:53:45.240 So you

00:53:46.000 don't see

00:53:47.420 your lips

00:53:47.800 move as

00:53:48.280 you're watching

00:53:48.680 it.

00:53:48.920 It's like,

00:53:49.240 ugh, it's

00:53:49.660 terrible.

00:53:50.960 So these

00:53:51.160 are, yeah,

00:53:52.240 the same

00:53:52.500 with, well,

00:53:54.500 Viva has

00:53:54.920 problems with

00:53:55.520 this.

00:53:57.380 So Viva

00:53:57.980 Fry would

00:53:59.100 be an

00:53:59.460 example of

00:54:00.340 something that

00:54:02.100 isn't working

00:54:02.700 as well as I

00:54:03.500 would want it

00:54:04.000 to work.

00:54:05.480 Because remember,

00:54:06.220 I do this

00:54:06.660 somewhat casually.

00:54:07.880 It's the only

00:54:08.220 way I can do

00:54:08.820 it.

00:54:09.600 So I

00:54:10.080 needed to

00:54:10.420 work on an

00:54:11.640 easy device

00:54:12.460 without an

00:54:13.100 engineer.

00:54:13.840 But I think

00:54:14.220 we're there.

00:54:15.320 So here's

00:54:16.340 my, here's

00:54:18.380 my tease.

00:54:19.960 I'm going to

00:54:20.560 test that out

00:54:21.200 in the coming

00:54:22.100 weeks.

00:54:23.440 And by the

00:54:24.260 time we get

00:54:24.780 to the 2024

00:54:25.760 election, I

00:54:28.080 should be in

00:54:28.960 shape that I

00:54:29.520 can do them

00:54:30.020 regularly.

00:54:30.500 Not in place

00:54:31.440 of this.

00:54:32.560 So it would

00:54:32.920 not be a

00:54:33.320 replacement for

00:54:33.980 the morning

00:54:34.440 coffee with

00:54:35.120 Scott Epps.

00:54:35.560 It would be

00:54:35.880 an additional

00:54:36.640 content.

00:54:37.220 And I

00:54:39.240 ask you

00:54:39.640 this.

00:54:39.960 You've

00:54:40.160 watched me

00:54:40.580 long enough.

00:54:42.580 Do you

00:54:43.180 think I

00:54:43.520 can't just

00:54:43.900 rip the

00:54:44.300 universe apart

00:54:45.020 with interviews?

00:54:47.120 Because I

00:54:48.540 can make so

00:54:49.120 much noise,

00:54:49.860 you know,

00:54:50.060 just talking

00:54:50.980 like I'm

00:54:51.360 talking now.

00:54:52.440 But what I

00:54:53.260 do won't

00:54:53.660 really be

00:54:54.160 forwarded

00:54:54.760 beyond,

00:54:55.320 you know,

00:54:55.660 some audience

00:54:56.200 that you

00:54:56.600 think might

00:54:57.180 like what I

00:54:57.640 do.

00:54:58.660 But if I

00:55:00.500 had one of

00:55:01.220 the big name

00:55:01.760 candidates on,

00:55:03.720 and I'm

00:55:04.600 pretty sure I

00:55:05.120 could get

00:55:05.420 Trump, if

00:55:07.560 he ran for

00:55:08.020 office, I'm

00:55:08.660 pretty sure I

00:55:09.160 could get

00:55:09.460 Trump to

00:55:10.120 appear on

00:55:10.740 this.

00:55:12.260 Because, you

00:55:13.500 know, Trump

00:55:13.980 does podcasts.

00:55:16.140 You know, he

00:55:16.480 goes where it

00:55:17.200 makes sense to

00:55:17.780 go.

00:55:18.220 And nothing

00:55:18.760 would make

00:55:19.140 more sense

00:55:19.620 than doing

00:55:19.940 this.

00:55:21.120 But here's

00:55:21.660 the interesting

00:55:22.100 thing.

00:55:23.100 What if I

00:55:23.680 got some

00:55:24.100 Democrats on

00:55:24.840 here?

00:55:25.960 I could

00:55:26.700 invite my

00:55:27.280 Democrat

00:55:27.660 friend, and

00:55:29.240 then just

00:55:30.620 trigger them

00:55:31.600 into cognitive

00:55:32.340 dissonance,

00:55:33.820 and that

00:55:34.200 would be the

00:55:34.640 show.

00:55:35.420 So the

00:55:36.260 show would

00:55:36.620 be not

00:55:37.040 even a

00:55:37.420 debate, because

00:55:37.940 there's nothing

00:55:38.300 to debate in

00:55:38.940 most cases.

00:55:39.860 It's usually

00:55:40.320 just somebody

00:55:40.820 who's suffering

00:55:41.840 some kind of

00:55:42.680 cognitive dissonance.

00:55:44.280 So what I

00:55:44.840 would do is

00:55:45.220 trigger them

00:55:45.800 into it, and

00:55:47.400 then let you

00:55:47.940 watch the

00:55:48.720 word salad

00:55:49.220 come out.

00:55:50.700 And then I

00:55:51.380 would call it

00:55:51.920 out as it's

00:55:52.480 happening.

00:55:52.940 I'd say,

00:55:53.300 all right, the

00:55:53.760 next thing I'm

00:55:54.340 going to say

00:55:54.780 is so persuasive

00:55:57.820 that it should

00:55:58.940 produce a word

00:55:59.800 salad.

00:56:01.140 And then watch

00:56:01.880 it come out.

00:56:03.240 Have you seen

00:56:03.700 me do it?

00:56:04.480 Has anybody

00:56:04.920 seen me do

00:56:05.360 this on

00:56:05.680 Twitter, where

00:56:07.420 I tell people

00:56:08.440 that their

00:56:08.820 next response

00:56:09.500 will be word

00:56:10.140 salad, and

00:56:11.400 then it is?

00:56:13.180 Yeah, you've

00:56:13.520 seen it.

00:56:13.820 The people

00:56:14.100 at Locals

00:56:14.540 have seen it.

00:56:15.660 I do this

00:56:16.440 live.

00:56:17.780 It's reproducible

00:56:18.820 as often as I

00:56:19.760 want to do it.

00:56:20.860 I mean, I can

00:56:21.360 easily trigger

00:56:22.160 somebody into

00:56:22.880 word salad.

00:56:24.800 A number of

00:56:25.680 you have seen

00:56:26.080 me do it.

00:56:27.220 Now, the other

00:56:27.800 thing you can

00:56:28.320 trigger them into

00:56:29.040 is changing the

00:56:29.860 topic, which is

00:56:31.360 also a win, or

00:56:32.300 calling you a racist,

00:56:33.120 which is also a

00:56:33.980 win.

00:56:36.220 You could beat

00:56:37.100 Joe Rogan?

00:56:37.880 What do you

00:56:38.140 mean?

00:56:39.320 Oh, you mean in

00:56:40.100 ratings?

00:56:41.320 No, I couldn't.

00:56:42.640 No, I couldn't.

00:56:43.320 One of the things

00:56:44.020 that Joe Rogan

00:56:44.560 does is he has

00:56:45.180 higher production

00:56:45.940 values, and that

00:56:48.140 really makes a

00:56:48.720 difference on

00:56:49.340 YouTube.

00:56:50.240 And I'm noodling

00:56:52.620 about doing that,

00:56:53.980 but I would have

00:56:56.040 to build a studio

00:56:56.900 to do that, which

00:56:58.360 I'm thinking about

00:56:58.940 doing.

00:56:59.120 I do have a

00:56:59.980 space in my

00:57:00.480 house that is

00:57:01.420 perfect for a

00:57:02.260 studio, but I

00:57:02.940 don't know if I

00:57:03.380 want to spend

00:57:03.780 time there.

00:57:04.440 That's the

00:57:04.720 problem.

00:57:06.900 Have you ever

00:57:07.220 considered hiring

00:57:07.960 an engineer?

00:57:10.720 Yes, and

00:57:11.520 rejected it.

00:57:12.920 Yeah.

00:57:13.860 As soon as you

00:57:14.720 have that second

00:57:15.360 person, everything

00:57:16.060 goes to hell.

00:57:18.720 Let me explain

00:57:20.160 my process for

00:57:20.960 coming on here.

00:57:21.820 You notice that

00:57:22.460 I seem pretty

00:57:23.040 relaxed.

00:57:24.800 I'm sort of,

00:57:25.940 I'm in flow when

00:57:27.780 I come on here,

00:57:28.320 usually, unless

00:57:29.020 there's like a

00:57:29.500 technical problem

00:57:30.260 and then I lose

00:57:31.480 my train of

00:57:32.180 thought.

00:57:32.760 Right, I'm

00:57:33.040 usually in flow

00:57:33.700 when I get on

00:57:34.220 here.

00:57:35.100 Imagine me trying

00:57:36.120 to get into

00:57:36.660 flow with an

00:57:37.940 engineer pecking

00:57:39.320 me to death,

00:57:40.680 telling me to

00:57:41.440 center yourself in

00:57:44.080 the frame, sit

00:57:44.780 up, move it

00:57:45.520 back, can you

00:57:47.100 move the, can

00:57:47.800 you change the

00:57:48.300 microphone?

00:57:49.680 As soon as you

00:57:50.380 add that other

00:57:50.900 person, the whole

00:57:51.480 show is done.

00:57:53.520 And you turn

00:57:54.600 into an

00:57:55.780 automaton.

00:57:56.380 And somebody's

00:57:59.120 watching you in

00:57:59.960 person.

00:58:01.440 I've tried to do

00:58:02.360 this a few times

00:58:03.220 with a witness,

00:58:05.040 like from the

00:58:05.580 man cave or

00:58:06.360 something else,

00:58:06.960 you know, maybe a

00:58:07.880 stepdaughter will be

00:58:08.560 in the room or

00:58:09.000 something.

00:58:09.760 So I've tried to

00:58:10.660 do this with

00:58:11.780 somebody there and

00:58:12.520 it doesn't work.

00:58:14.240 Like literally, if

00:58:15.180 anybody, it wouldn't

00:58:16.180 matter who it was,

00:58:17.020 if anybody was

00:58:17.840 sitting just like

00:58:18.600 right over there,

00:58:19.940 I wouldn't talk

00:58:20.740 the same.

00:58:21.080 I'd be somewhat

00:58:22.800 talking to the

00:58:23.500 person instead of

00:58:24.400 the screen.

00:58:25.760 But, but, if I

00:58:29.320 had a live audience,

00:58:31.020 like 10 people, then

00:58:33.800 I would speak the

00:58:34.440 same as I do on

00:58:35.100 here, because I

00:58:36.460 would feel the

00:58:36.980 same.

00:58:37.400 And they wouldn't

00:58:37.940 be bothering me,

00:58:39.040 they would be part

00:58:39.840 of the act, right?

00:58:40.820 They would not be

00:58:41.800 ruining my flow,

00:58:42.900 they would probably

00:58:43.260 help me get into

00:58:44.060 it, you know, because

00:58:45.140 they would be reacting

00:58:45.860 and stuff, so they

00:58:46.640 would bring me into

00:58:47.440 flow.

00:58:48.220 So one engineer will

00:58:49.400 take you out of

00:58:50.020 flow, and audience

00:58:51.780 will put you into

00:58:52.520 flow.

00:58:53.380 So you have to be

00:58:54.000 in flow or else

00:58:54.640 you can't do this.

00:59:00.580 Yeah, it's sort of

00:59:01.260 like the home gym.

00:59:02.200 Yeah, the home gym,

00:59:03.320 you don't have the

00:59:03.980 energy because there's

00:59:05.100 not other people

00:59:05.780 there, that's true.

00:59:07.060 I think I would be

00:59:07.960 best in front of,

00:59:09.320 here's what I'd like

00:59:10.280 to do.

00:59:10.820 I'd like to build a

00:59:11.760 studio that has a

00:59:14.040 small audience.

00:59:16.400 And maybe not even

00:59:17.500 invite people.

00:59:19.200 You know, maybe I

00:59:19.680 put it on a tweet or

00:59:20.460 something.

00:59:21.140 But just the local

00:59:22.040 people.

00:59:22.980 Because I'd probably

00:59:23.780 do it on like a

00:59:24.740 main street in one

00:59:25.620 of the two towns,

00:59:26.560 between two towns.

00:59:28.080 But either one of

00:59:28.900 them have these cute

00:59:29.600 little main streets

00:59:30.420 with little store

00:59:33.420 fronts, if I could

00:59:34.740 pick one up for a

00:59:35.540 reasonable price.

00:59:37.140 Because I don't want

00:59:37.820 to own it.

00:59:39.120 And then I'd make it

00:59:39.980 my little studio and

00:59:41.240 invite people out.

00:59:42.500 Probably mostly do

00:59:43.540 remote stuff.

00:59:45.480 Yeah, the garage is

00:59:46.380 too noisy, too

00:59:48.120 doesn't have

00:59:49.520 temperature control.

00:59:54.800 Should do it in the

00:59:55.620 movie theater?

00:59:56.280 So the movie theater,

00:59:57.380 I removed, so I have

00:59:59.220 a home theater

01:00:00.260 situation here.

01:00:01.360 So I removed the

01:00:02.400 home theater seating.

01:00:03.780 It was kind of old

01:00:04.560 anyway.

01:00:05.740 And that's probably

01:00:06.980 what I would turn

01:00:07.620 into either a music

01:00:08.960 studio, when I get

01:00:10.420 my guitar, or my

01:00:13.980 podcast studio.

01:00:16.200 But let me ask you

01:00:17.000 this.

01:00:18.300 Don't you think

01:00:18.960 there's something

01:00:19.700 better about the

01:00:22.680 casual, non-professional

01:00:24.820 way I do this?

01:00:26.880 Or am I fooling

01:00:27.960 myself?

01:00:28.720 Am I just fooling

01:00:29.460 myself because I

01:00:30.180 don't want to work

01:00:31.340 hard or something?

01:00:32.380 I feel like there's

01:00:33.280 something that adds

01:00:34.080 to it.

01:00:35.440 Because I've told you

01:00:36.400 often that the way

01:00:37.240 to consume this is

01:00:38.220 not necessarily to

01:00:39.080 listen to every word.

01:00:40.860 You put it on when

01:00:41.900 you feel lonely.

01:00:42.500 Because I've learned

01:00:44.820 that most of the

01:00:45.520 people who consume

01:00:46.600 this are doing it

01:00:47.240 alone.

01:00:47.860 Some of you have it

01:00:49.380 with a spouse or a

01:00:50.100 friend or something.

01:00:50.740 But most of you are

01:00:51.480 alone.

01:00:52.820 And when you're alone

01:00:54.080 and you're so alone

01:00:55.900 that you're listening

01:00:56.460 to podcast content,

01:00:57.700 you're probably lonely.

01:00:59.860 So if I give you the

01:01:01.160 professional content,

01:01:02.220 you're going to feel

01:01:02.640 some kind of wall

01:01:03.300 between us.

01:01:04.400 But if I talk to you

01:01:05.240 the way I'm talking

01:01:05.840 to you now, which is

01:01:07.820 almost exactly like I

01:01:08.900 would talk to you if

01:01:09.540 you were sitting here

01:01:10.120 in person.

01:01:10.520 You could tell

01:01:13.040 that, can't you?

01:01:14.180 If you were sitting

01:01:14.960 on the other side

01:01:15.540 of the table and

01:01:16.080 it was just the two

01:01:16.600 of us and we're

01:01:17.680 just drinking coffee,

01:01:19.360 it would be 95%

01:01:22.400 just like this.

01:01:23.640 It's not that

01:01:24.160 different.

01:01:25.380 I think you could

01:01:26.040 pick that up, right?

01:01:27.660 And by the way, do

01:01:28.540 you know how hard

01:01:29.220 this is?

01:01:31.920 It's not hard to do

01:01:32.800 at the moment because

01:01:33.460 I do it so much.

01:01:34.480 But do you know how

01:01:35.260 hard it is to be

01:01:37.660 natural in front

01:01:39.340 of an audience?

01:01:40.720 Oh my God, it's

01:01:41.660 hard.

01:01:42.220 And it doesn't

01:01:43.040 happen quickly.

01:01:46.300 Even when I was

01:01:47.120 live streaming in the

01:01:48.000 beginning, you

01:01:48.860 probably remember.

01:01:49.940 I mean, I was a

01:01:50.340 little stiff.

01:01:52.060 And it's also hard

01:01:53.280 to fill all the

01:01:53.860 space.

01:01:55.040 Have you noticed

01:01:55.520 that?

01:01:56.560 But you don't want

01:01:57.400 to fill all the

01:01:58.180 space.

01:01:58.620 You need to have

01:01:59.040 some gaps a little

01:02:01.160 bit.

01:02:01.480 They have to be

01:02:01.900 strategic.

01:02:03.160 Yeah.

01:02:04.680 Somebody's agreeing

01:02:05.480 with me.

01:02:05.800 Yeah, you sucked.

01:02:06.500 When I originally

01:02:07.780 started live casting,

01:02:09.040 I don't think it

01:02:09.720 could have been

01:02:10.160 worse.

01:02:11.420 I think it was

01:02:11.900 bad on every way

01:02:13.080 that it could be

01:02:13.820 bad.

01:02:14.620 And number one

01:02:15.440 was I had such

01:02:16.160 nasal nose problems.

01:02:19.420 I mean, it was

01:02:19.760 just disgusting.

01:02:21.100 So I didn't think

01:02:22.180 I could get to a

01:02:22.860 professional level

01:02:23.560 anyway.

01:02:24.500 So I thought I'll

01:02:25.500 just keep it casual

01:02:26.240 and see what

01:02:26.660 happens.

01:02:28.960 You still have the

01:02:29.960 episode saved?

01:02:31.920 The first one?

01:02:34.720 Oh, you're asking

01:02:35.520 me.

01:02:35.760 No, I don't have

01:02:36.280 them saved.

01:02:39.660 Remember how long

01:02:40.440 it took me to get

01:02:41.040 a decent mic?

01:02:41.860 Yeah.

01:02:42.920 But you know,

01:02:43.500 the secret there

01:02:45.800 was the cheapest

01:02:46.520 one.

01:02:47.540 So the decent

01:02:48.560 mic that I have

01:02:49.280 on the lavaliers,

01:02:50.640 do you know

01:02:50.920 what they cost?

01:02:53.420 $17.

01:02:55.720 The microphones

01:02:56.520 that were failing,

01:02:58.500 those were like

01:02:59.260 hundreds of dollars.

01:03:00.040 and as soon as you

01:03:04.080 get to the high-end

01:03:05.000 microphones you're

01:03:05.800 already into,

01:03:06.640 you need an engineer.

01:03:11.640 But we all learn

01:03:12.540 together.

01:03:12.900 That's true.

01:03:13.820 This has been quite a

01:03:14.720 journey for a lot of

01:03:15.740 you.

01:03:16.860 You know, the thing

01:03:17.640 that makes me happiest

01:03:18.500 is the number of

01:03:19.240 people, especially on

01:03:20.080 the Locals platform,

01:03:20.940 who have completely

01:03:23.020 improved their life

01:03:24.880 based on something

01:03:26.660 they picked up in this

01:03:28.240 process on the live

01:03:29.080 streams or my books.

01:03:31.660 That, that, that

01:03:34.040 is worth living for.

01:03:36.840 You know, you wake

01:03:37.980 up and you say,

01:03:39.080 you ever do this?

01:03:40.400 You wake up and you

01:03:41.280 can't remember what's

01:03:42.820 the point of being

01:03:43.420 alive.

01:03:44.720 You ever have that,

01:03:45.600 especially before your

01:03:46.400 coffee?

01:03:47.520 You wake up and you

01:03:48.240 think, you know,

01:03:50.040 God, I don't even

01:03:50.960 think I need to be

01:03:51.620 alive.

01:03:52.620 Like, there's nothing

01:03:54.360 about it good.

01:03:55.540 I don't have anything

01:03:56.300 going on today.

01:03:57.120 What's the point of

01:03:58.440 it?

01:03:59.320 For me, the fact

01:04:01.580 that people tell me

01:04:02.440 I've improved their

01:04:03.340 life in some way is

01:04:05.320 a reason to wake

01:04:06.020 up.

01:04:07.180 Like, if you say

01:04:07.920 there's a good chance

01:04:08.720 you'll improve

01:04:09.320 somebody's life today,

01:04:10.940 that changes your

01:04:12.200 whole day.

01:04:13.200 Like, oh, wow, I

01:04:15.620 could, I could go

01:04:16.300 improve a life today.

01:04:22.040 People are

01:04:22.700 constantly thinking

01:04:24.280 in terms of systems

01:04:26.060 or goals and

01:04:27.120 talent stacks,

01:04:27.960 all that.

01:04:28.920 I bet you think

01:04:29.440 of talent stacks

01:04:30.180 even if you don't

01:04:30.780 think of it

01:04:31.180 explicitly.

01:04:34.040 And,

01:04:35.300 what's that

01:04:38.180 say?

01:04:40.740 Interview Ed

01:04:41.540 Calderon.

01:04:43.520 Who's Ed

01:04:44.240 Calderon?

01:04:47.460 You know, I do

01:04:48.100 have an ex-

01:04:49.500 president of Mexico

01:04:50.800 follows me on

01:04:51.700 Twitter.

01:04:55.060 That feels kind of

01:04:56.160 awkward when I'm

01:04:57.620 advocating an attack

01:04:59.040 on his country.

01:05:03.400 But he follows me

01:05:04.480 on Twitter.

01:05:05.120 I don't know.

01:05:05.840 I guess he likes

01:05:06.400 what I say.

01:05:07.960 I can't remember

01:05:08.580 which one.

01:05:10.620 Does anybody know

01:05:11.600 which ex-president

01:05:12.920 of Mexico follows me

01:05:15.120 on Twitter?

01:05:15.500 I forget which

01:05:18.700 one.

01:05:19.720 It wasn't

01:05:20.160 Fox, no.

01:05:22.140 It was not,

01:05:23.620 was it

01:05:24.780 Calderon?

01:05:28.220 Somebody's saying

01:05:28.920 it's Philippe

01:05:29.820 Calderon.

01:05:30.680 That might be.

01:05:31.620 That sounds

01:05:32.020 familiar.

01:05:33.340 I think

01:05:33.680 Vicente Fox,

01:05:34.780 I believe I

01:05:35.440 interacted with him

01:05:36.360 on Twitter once.

01:05:38.780 No, it wasn't

01:05:39.380 Nieto.

01:05:39.780 No.

01:05:39.880 Did you read

01:05:44.020 about China

01:05:44.640 freezing savings

01:05:45.640 accounts and

01:05:46.340 using tanks to

01:05:47.660 protect banks?

01:05:49.640 I did not

01:05:50.500 read about that.

01:05:52.260 I did not.

01:06:00.540 You're hunk

01:06:01.280 about Bannon

01:06:01.900 yesterday.

01:06:02.500 It was good to

01:06:02.960 hear from me.

01:06:04.220 I am Bannon.

01:06:05.020 Oh, yes.

01:06:05.640 Yes, people seem

01:06:07.840 to appreciate the

01:06:09.560 fact that

01:06:11.400 Republicans are

01:06:14.020 noticing that

01:06:16.000 it's people who

01:06:16.900 look and act like

01:06:17.780 they do that are

01:06:18.440 going to jail.

01:06:20.080 And not just

01:06:21.060 look and act in

01:06:21.900 a lifestyle way,

01:06:23.180 but specifically

01:06:23.940 on this topic,

01:06:25.540 specifically on

01:06:26.420 the topic of

01:06:27.180 protesting

01:06:28.280 results of

01:06:29.520 elections and

01:06:30.120 that sort of

01:06:30.540 thing.

01:06:30.680 It is people who

01:06:32.040 look and feel

01:06:33.140 like exactly the

01:06:34.040 people going to

01:06:34.600 jail.

01:06:35.960 And so when I

01:06:36.940 said that if

01:06:38.660 you beg for

01:06:39.540 it, if the

01:06:41.380 Democrats beg for

01:06:42.540 it, and so far

01:06:43.120 they are, if they

01:06:44.820 beg for it, we

01:06:46.400 will set Trump

01:06:48.600 on fire and

01:06:49.340 shove him

01:06:49.880 completely up

01:06:50.600 their asses like

01:06:52.040 an angry

01:06:52.500 gerbil.

01:06:54.000 If they beg for

01:06:55.160 it, and they

01:06:56.260 are.

01:06:57.280 Like, there are a

01:06:58.380 lot of people who

01:07:00.060 might back a

01:07:00.920 Republican who

01:07:01.820 would prefer that

01:07:02.620 Trump not run.

01:07:04.480 Maybe even a

01:07:05.380 majority.

01:07:06.000 I don't know.

01:07:06.840 What do you

01:07:07.200 think?

01:07:07.660 I don't think

01:07:08.060 it's a majority.

01:07:08.620 I think Trump

01:07:09.600 actually has a

01:07:10.220 solid majority

01:07:11.000 who want him to

01:07:11.920 run at this

01:07:12.360 point.

01:07:13.880 But let's say

01:07:14.520 there's 40% who

01:07:16.380 would be happier

01:07:17.000 if it were

01:07:18.080 DeSantis,

01:07:19.040 whatever the

01:07:19.540 number is.

01:07:20.000 It might be

01:07:20.240 25.

01:07:21.780 But I don't

01:07:23.580 know that it

01:07:23.980 matters at this

01:07:24.600 point.

01:07:25.460 If Trump wants

01:07:26.260 to run, nothing

01:07:28.060 matters.

01:07:29.180 So if the

01:07:30.100 Democrats want

01:07:30.980 Trump to win,

01:07:33.100 just keep

01:07:33.940 persecuting people

01:07:34.900 who look like

01:07:35.640 me, people

01:07:38.000 who look and

01:07:38.640 feel like

01:07:39.120 Bannon, you

01:07:43.500 couldn't do a

01:07:44.560 worse persuasion

01:07:45.980 job.

01:07:47.300 Now, I think

01:07:47.920 that their

01:07:48.360 plan to take

01:07:50.940 down Trump

01:07:51.560 depended entirely

01:07:53.040 on succeeding.

01:07:55.700 They actually

01:07:56.580 took a run at

01:07:57.340 the king and

01:07:58.160 they didn't get

01:07:58.860 him.

01:08:00.580 Right?

01:08:01.060 It looks like

01:08:01.620 the January 6th

01:08:02.460 thing is not

01:08:03.020 going to produce

01:08:03.660 any kind of a

01:08:04.240 charge.

01:08:05.600 So if you

01:08:06.680 take a run at

01:08:07.420 the king, you

01:08:08.660 better make sure

01:08:09.380 you get him.

01:08:10.800 Because if they

01:08:12.660 had not done the

01:08:13.400 January 6th

01:08:14.420 thing, I don't

01:08:15.680 think he could

01:08:16.240 get re-elected.

01:08:20.360 Now, there's a

01:08:21.180 little provocation

01:08:22.000 for you.

01:08:22.700 I'm going to say

01:08:23.160 it again because I

01:08:23.880 liked it so much.

01:08:25.140 I don't believe

01:08:26.240 Trump could get

01:08:27.100 re-elected except

01:08:28.960 the January 6th

01:08:30.560 committee cleared

01:08:31.180 him.

01:08:31.380 because if they

01:08:33.400 hadn't debunked

01:08:34.800 themselves, I

01:08:35.980 would have

01:08:36.260 thought there

01:08:36.660 might be

01:08:36.960 something there

01:08:37.640 and enough

01:08:38.300 people would

01:08:38.680 have said,

01:08:38.860 you know, we

01:08:39.960 don't know, there

01:08:40.580 might have been

01:08:40.920 something there,

01:08:42.280 but let's not

01:08:43.160 have that trouble.

01:08:48.900 What is the

01:08:49.720 taking a run at

01:08:50.900 the king?

01:08:51.460 What is the

01:08:52.040 actual quote?

01:08:53.540 It's something

01:08:53.800 like if you try

01:08:54.420 to kill the

01:08:54.980 king, you

01:08:56.560 better make sure

01:08:57.080 you succeed.

01:08:57.680 something like

01:08:59.920 that.

01:09:02.200 But does

01:09:02.780 anybody feel

01:09:03.220 the same

01:09:03.560 thing?

01:09:04.280 Does anybody

01:09:04.680 feel that the

01:09:07.500 January 6th

01:09:08.320 things increased

01:09:09.440 Trump's odds

01:09:11.420 of re-election?

01:09:14.620 And are you

01:09:15.420 thinking it only

01:09:15.940 because I

01:09:16.300 persuaded you?

01:09:17.560 Or were you

01:09:18.000 thinking that

01:09:18.440 before?

01:09:20.560 I feel like they

01:09:21.500 hardened the

01:09:22.480 resistance.

01:09:24.340 Now, and let me

01:09:24.920 say as clearly as

01:09:25.740 I can, because I

01:09:26.480 think some of you

01:09:27.100 are confused

01:09:27.660 about who I

01:09:28.420 would or would

01:09:29.020 not endorse,

01:09:30.040 my first choice

01:09:31.380 is that nobody

01:09:33.180 as old as

01:09:34.100 Trump or

01:09:35.040 Biden ever

01:09:35.860 runs for

01:09:36.340 president again.

01:09:38.100 That's my

01:09:38.720 first choice.

01:09:40.040 So the minute

01:09:40.600 you say, okay,

01:09:41.940 let's do somebody

01:09:42.840 else because of

01:09:43.540 age, I'm with

01:09:44.280 you.

01:09:45.020 I'm with you.

01:09:45.680 Because we do

01:09:46.080 have enough

01:09:46.440 choices, right?

01:09:47.880 So it's not as

01:09:48.820 if the Republicans

01:09:49.900 have nobody else

01:09:50.860 to run.

01:09:51.280 They have a good

01:09:51.740 bench.

01:09:52.980 Republicans have

01:09:53.660 a pretty good

01:09:54.220 bench.

01:09:54.860 It's just not a

01:09:55.540 problem.

01:09:55.840 You know, I'll

01:09:57.260 take a Tom

01:09:58.380 Cotton.

01:09:59.960 You know, I

01:10:00.380 would take a

01:10:00.800 DeSantis.

01:10:05.200 Ted Cruz is

01:10:06.140 interesting.

01:10:07.960 That's somebody

01:10:08.680 that I used to

01:10:09.460 be more

01:10:10.780 against.

01:10:11.900 It had to do

01:10:12.660 with his public

01:10:13.380 persona, I think.

01:10:14.780 But I've never

01:10:15.780 seen anybody fix

01:10:16.840 his public

01:10:17.380 persona better

01:10:18.120 than he has.

01:10:19.480 And he also

01:10:20.480 demonstrates on a

01:10:21.360 regular basis just

01:10:22.160 how damn smart he

01:10:23.020 is.

01:10:24.000 Cruz is really

01:10:24.800 smart.

01:10:26.160 It would be

01:10:26.760 nice to have

01:10:27.220 somebody in the

01:10:28.060 office that you

01:10:29.580 didn't have to

01:10:30.040 worry about their

01:10:30.640 IQ, right?

01:10:33.460 Now, I happen to

01:10:34.420 think that Trump

01:10:35.560 is brilliant in

01:10:37.200 the ways that he's

01:10:37.980 brilliant, right?

01:10:39.600 But that's not

01:10:40.400 necessarily all the

01:10:41.360 intellectual ways

01:10:42.420 that somebody's

01:10:43.100 looking for.

01:10:43.920 Ted Cruz is just

01:10:44.980 flat-out brilliant

01:10:46.580 in a whole bunch

01:10:48.460 of different ways.

01:10:49.160 But there's just

01:10:54.400 something.

01:10:55.820 Do you know

01:10:56.420 what I mean?

01:10:57.880 There's something

01:10:58.680 about him that

01:11:00.500 either it terrorizes

01:11:02.640 the left and makes

01:11:03.920 him impractical.

01:11:05.860 There's something

01:11:06.520 about him.

01:11:08.060 But here are the

01:11:09.020 things I do like

01:11:09.660 about Ted Cruz.

01:11:11.140 When he makes a

01:11:12.720 mistake, like his

01:11:15.220 travel issues and

01:11:16.560 stuff like that, I

01:11:17.700 feel like he owns

01:11:18.360 it.

01:11:19.840 Am I wrong?

01:11:20.760 Maybe I don't know

01:11:21.660 every situation

01:11:22.760 that's ever happened.

01:11:23.960 But is it true that

01:11:26.860 when Cruz makes

01:11:28.100 some kind of a

01:11:28.660 gaffe, he just

01:11:29.240 owns it?

01:11:30.640 Right?

01:11:33.060 Now, there aren't

01:11:34.060 that many gaffes.

01:11:35.440 But I believe he

01:11:36.200 owns them all.

01:11:37.640 And just says,

01:11:38.320 yep, yep,

01:11:39.340 moving on.

01:11:40.600 You know, even the

01:11:41.200 gaffe about Trump

01:11:42.340 insulted him and his

01:11:43.540 wife and stuff when

01:11:44.420 they were running

01:11:44.820 against each other.

01:11:46.620 I love the fact that

01:11:47.820 that doesn't bother

01:11:48.520 him a bit.

01:11:50.100 You know, people are

01:11:50.900 trying to get him

01:11:51.460 riled up.

01:11:52.540 Oh, Trump insulted

01:11:53.480 your wife and stuff

01:11:54.460 like that.

01:11:55.220 And he's just like,

01:11:56.220 yeah, whatever.

01:11:57.820 Politics.

01:11:59.180 I do like the fact

01:12:00.340 that that doesn't

01:12:00.940 bother him a bit.

01:12:02.580 To me, that's a

01:12:03.440 plus.

01:12:05.300 So, anyway, I'm not

01:12:07.880 sure I would agree

01:12:08.500 with all of his

01:12:09.100 policy declarations as

01:12:10.820 I wouldn't agree with

01:12:11.740 any of the other

01:12:12.560 candidates and all of

01:12:13.640 their opinions.

01:12:15.020 But if you gave me a

01:12:17.400 no-Trump option, I'd

01:12:19.620 probably take it.

01:12:20.800 I'd probably take it.

01:12:22.300 But I don't think we're

01:12:23.220 going to have that

01:12:23.600 option.

01:12:24.340 I think the realistic

01:12:25.380 choice is going to be

01:12:26.440 Trump versus somebody

01:12:28.540 who wants you in jail.

01:12:30.700 That's what it's going

01:12:31.420 to feel like.

01:12:32.360 I mean, it's not

01:12:32.820 literally true.

01:12:33.860 But it's going to feel

01:12:35.060 like your choice is

01:12:36.560 Trump or somebody who

01:12:38.260 wants people like you

01:12:39.520 in jail.

01:12:39.960 And that's Trump

01:12:42.520 every time.

01:12:44.120 And I wouldn't even

01:12:44.840 be embarrassed about

01:12:45.640 it.

01:12:46.660 Because I think there

01:12:47.520 could have been a

01:12:48.960 scenario where it

01:12:49.760 would just be too

01:12:50.340 embarrassing to back

01:12:53.400 Trump.

01:12:53.960 And that scenario

01:12:54.640 would be if the

01:12:56.020 January 6th hearings

01:12:57.180 had gone the way

01:12:57.840 the Democrats wanted

01:12:58.740 them to.

01:12:59.840 It would be sort of

01:13:00.720 embarrassing.

01:13:02.300 But they've made it

01:13:03.360 easy.

01:13:04.320 They eliminated the

01:13:05.300 only thing that I had

01:13:06.500 as a big problem,

01:13:08.160 that the January 6th

01:13:09.280 thing seemed

01:13:09.800 disqualifying to me.

01:13:11.760 To me, it seemed

01:13:12.480 disqualifying.

01:13:14.440 Did anybody have

01:13:15.040 that opinion?

01:13:16.340 That the way he acted

01:13:17.480 on January 6th,

01:13:18.600 Trump, was

01:13:19.980 disqualifying.

01:13:21.520 But then you saw

01:13:22.420 the January 6th

01:13:23.320 stuff, and you said,

01:13:24.300 oh, maybe not so

01:13:25.980 disqualifying after all.

01:13:28.740 Did anybody have

01:13:29.620 that opinion?

01:13:32.620 I said, no, yeses,

01:13:34.140 no.

01:13:34.600 A mix.

01:13:35.300 We get a mix.

01:13:36.200 Yeah.

01:13:38.540 Then let me ask

01:13:39.360 you this.

01:13:41.500 No matter how

01:13:42.440 disgusted you are

01:13:43.620 with Trump,

01:13:45.000 let's say you're

01:13:45.640 a Republican,

01:13:46.380 but you're

01:13:46.700 disgusted with

01:13:47.700 whatever, whatever

01:13:48.500 he did.

01:13:50.120 If he ran against

01:13:51.160 a Democrat,

01:13:52.040 would you vote

01:13:52.540 for him?

01:13:53.820 Go.

01:13:55.220 It's Trump with

01:13:56.240 all of his flaws

01:13:56.980 against a Democrat.

01:13:58.000 What do you vote

01:13:58.440 for?

01:13:59.480 It's Trump.

01:14:00.600 It's just a wall

01:14:01.400 of yeses.

01:14:03.040 Yeah.

01:14:03.840 It's easy.

01:14:04.540 Because here's

01:14:06.720 the one thing

01:14:07.120 I actually believe

01:14:08.020 about Trump.

01:14:10.060 I think he was

01:14:11.040 fighting for me.

01:14:13.420 Me meaning

01:14:14.380 an American citizen

01:14:15.440 and somebody

01:14:17.080 who supported him

01:14:17.820 especially.

01:14:18.900 I feel like

01:14:19.800 Trump fought for me.

01:14:21.480 Didn't win,

01:14:23.080 but I felt like

01:14:23.720 he fought for me.

01:14:24.480 And somebody

01:14:29.040 else was pointing

01:14:29.660 out that the

01:14:31.500 first time Trump

01:14:32.380 ran, he was

01:14:34.700 running on promises

01:14:35.600 and he was a

01:14:37.220 notorious liar.

01:14:39.640 So it's pretty

01:14:40.440 hard to run on

01:14:41.060 promises when

01:14:41.900 you're actually

01:14:42.260 famous for

01:14:43.020 hyperbole.

01:14:44.920 But he won

01:14:45.760 because he was

01:14:46.360 running against

01:14:46.840 Hillary.

01:14:47.200 That helped.

01:14:48.440 But now he

01:14:49.240 doesn't have to

01:14:49.720 use hyperbole.

01:14:51.560 Trump can

01:14:52.020 literally say,

01:14:52.900 did he like

01:14:53.340 that stuff before?

01:14:55.020 Well, I'll just

01:14:55.480 give you that

01:14:55.900 stuff again.

01:14:57.200 Because you saw

01:14:57.960 me do it.

01:14:59.120 You know exactly

01:15:00.060 how I do it.

01:15:01.320 You know what

01:15:02.080 it would take

01:15:02.440 to do it.

01:15:03.320 I'm just going

01:15:03.860 to do that again.

01:15:05.120 Get you back

01:15:05.560 where you were.

01:15:07.420 That's the easiest

01:15:08.300 sale of any

01:15:09.180 political sale

01:15:10.000 I've ever seen.

01:15:11.440 There is no

01:15:12.000 sale better than,

01:15:13.600 did you like

01:15:14.080 what I was doing?

01:15:14.760 I'll do some

01:15:15.300 more of that for you.

01:15:16.280 Or did you like

01:15:17.060 what Biden did?

01:15:17.880 You could keep

01:15:18.420 that too.

01:15:20.580 It's literally

01:15:21.360 the easiest.

01:15:22.320 It'll be the

01:15:23.020 easiest election.

01:15:24.480 Trump could do

01:15:25.600 the Biden approach

01:15:26.720 and we'd win.

01:15:28.240 The Biden approach

01:15:29.220 to campaigning,

01:15:30.320 Trump could go

01:15:31.140 hide in a

01:15:32.060 fucking basement

01:15:32.840 in 2024

01:15:33.680 and it would

01:15:35.140 guarantee his

01:15:35.740 victory.

01:15:38.240 Just because

01:15:38.980 the less he talks,

01:15:40.020 the less they have

01:15:40.720 to make up

01:15:41.640 fake news about him.

01:15:42.820 He could just

01:15:43.300 like put out

01:15:43.780 boring news releases

01:15:44.880 every day.

01:15:46.600 News release.

01:15:48.020 We should have

01:15:48.620 a secure border.

01:15:50.140 Just like,

01:15:51.200 keep it plain.

01:15:52.040 He would just

01:15:53.220 walk back

01:15:53.760 into the job.

01:15:55.460 But,

01:15:56.920 would he be

01:15:57.820 Trump?

01:15:59.300 See,

01:15:59.600 that's the

01:15:59.940 trouble.

01:16:01.720 You don't

01:16:02.640 hire,

01:16:04.100 you know,

01:16:04.620 you don't get

01:16:05.220 a,

01:16:06.400 let's see,

01:16:07.080 not insult

01:16:08.320 somebody accidentally.

01:16:12.000 You don't

01:16:12.820 keep a wild

01:16:13.560 animal in your

01:16:14.300 house

01:16:14.800 and expect

01:16:16.380 it's not

01:16:16.780 going to

01:16:16.980 bite your

01:16:17.300 guests.

01:16:17.720 It's sort

01:16:20.260 of,

01:16:20.520 you know,

01:16:21.020 built into

01:16:21.600 the wild

01:16:22.040 animal

01:16:22.480 concept.

01:16:24.720 And you

01:16:25.300 don't,

01:16:25.780 you don't

01:16:26.500 hire Trump

01:16:27.280 to be

01:16:28.080 president

01:16:28.560 unless you

01:16:29.860 know some

01:16:30.240 of your

01:16:30.460 dishes are

01:16:30.980 going to

01:16:31.160 get broken.

01:16:31.980 And I'm

01:16:32.560 not talking

01:16:33.000 about other

01:16:33.480 people's

01:16:33.880 dishes,

01:16:34.460 you know

01:16:34.660 what I

01:16:34.840 mean?

01:16:35.640 Like,

01:16:35.900 some of

01:16:36.140 your damn

01:16:36.500 dishes are

01:16:36.940 going to

01:16:37.080 get broken.

01:16:38.580 Like,

01:16:38.780 you're not

01:16:39.060 going to

01:16:39.180 be a

01:16:39.420 spectator.

01:16:40.380 Some of

01:16:40.960 your dishes

01:16:41.500 will get

01:16:41.900 broken,

01:16:42.360 too.

01:16:43.500 So,

01:16:44.280 the one

01:16:45.640 thing I've

01:16:46.020 always said

01:16:46.400 about Trump

01:16:46.920 since the

01:16:47.460 first time

01:16:47.920 he ran,

01:16:49.480 is that

01:16:50.260 he would

01:16:50.580 be an

01:16:51.060 expensive

01:16:51.640 president,

01:16:53.180 but worth

01:16:54.140 the expense.

01:16:55.720 And I

01:16:56.000 think that

01:16:56.280 that was

01:16:56.500 one of my

01:16:56.880 better,

01:16:57.320 you know,

01:16:57.980 characterizations.

01:16:59.120 He's very

01:16:59.720 expensive,

01:17:00.760 in the sense

01:17:02.180 that he

01:17:02.660 caused a

01:17:03.480 reputational

01:17:04.100 hit to

01:17:04.600 me.

01:17:05.340 Probably

01:17:05.700 brought my

01:17:06.300 income down

01:17:06.980 by a

01:17:07.300 third.

01:17:08.600 But Biden's

01:17:09.880 expensive in

01:17:10.580 his own

01:17:10.900 way,

01:17:11.180 isn't he?

01:17:12.800 Biden's

01:17:13.320 expensive a

01:17:13.920 different way,

01:17:14.780 by fucking

01:17:15.460 up.

01:17:15.760 Trump is

01:17:17.980 expensive

01:17:18.400 because he

01:17:19.220 causes

01:17:19.500 provocation

01:17:20.260 and division

01:17:20.900 and,

01:17:21.540 you know,

01:17:22.400 everything's

01:17:23.460 attenuated

01:17:24.400 when he's

01:17:24.820 in office.

01:17:25.260 It's not

01:17:25.580 free.

01:17:26.980 You know,

01:17:27.140 you don't want

01:17:27.820 to support

01:17:28.260 Trump if

01:17:28.880 you want

01:17:29.160 a trouble-free

01:17:30.420 world.

01:17:31.120 He's bringing

01:17:31.700 the trouble.

01:17:32.900 But if you

01:17:33.720 want that

01:17:34.160 trouble to be

01:17:34.980 directed at

01:17:35.660 the things

01:17:36.100 that you

01:17:36.420 hate and

01:17:37.540 think need

01:17:37.940 to be

01:17:38.180 changed,

01:17:38.600 he's just

01:17:39.040 the trouble

01:17:39.420 you need.

01:17:40.860 You know,

01:17:41.280 he's the

01:17:41.880 trouble you

01:17:42.400 require for

01:17:43.860 some things.

01:17:49.280 Competence is

01:17:49.900 the word

01:17:50.180 you're looking

01:17:50.520 for.

01:17:52.540 Am I?

01:17:55.760 Yeah,

01:17:56.240 I see people

01:17:56.760 saying it's

01:17:57.260 going to be

01:17:57.540 Trump and

01:17:58.020 DeSantis for

01:17:58.740 one term.

01:17:59.380 I'm going to

01:17:59.800 debunk that

01:18:00.640 strongly.

01:18:03.820 Now,

01:18:04.180 you might be

01:18:04.800 right.

01:18:05.320 All right,

01:18:05.580 nobody knows

01:18:06.040 the future.

01:18:06.860 But here's

01:18:07.380 my thinking.

01:18:08.280 When was the

01:18:09.060 last time

01:18:09.500 somebody had

01:18:10.120 a vice

01:18:10.560 president that

01:18:12.240 reasonable people

01:18:13.120 would say,

01:18:13.540 you know,

01:18:14.360 I wish you

01:18:14.820 reversed that.

01:18:15.940 I wish that

01:18:16.460 vice president

01:18:17.140 were actually

01:18:17.720 the president.

01:18:18.920 You don't do

01:18:19.620 that because

01:18:20.880 it makes the

01:18:21.340 president look

01:18:21.920 weak because

01:18:23.160 the conversation

01:18:23.840 would turn

01:18:24.300 into maybe

01:18:25.260 it should be

01:18:25.740 DeSantis.

01:18:26.500 DeSantis

01:18:27.000 wouldn't do

01:18:27.480 that.

01:18:28.040 Why doesn't

01:18:28.480 DeSantis

01:18:28.860 talk to

01:18:29.360 Trump?

01:18:29.960 Why isn't

01:18:30.500 Trump listening

01:18:31.440 to DeSantis

01:18:32.040 more?

01:18:33.200 No.

01:18:34.220 You cannot

01:18:34.760 have that

01:18:35.240 situation.

01:18:36.560 Now,

01:18:36.760 forget about

01:18:37.180 Trump's

01:18:37.580 personality,

01:18:38.540 which would

01:18:39.000 not allow

01:18:39.580 that to

01:18:39.940 happen.

01:18:40.400 It's just

01:18:40.760 not good

01:18:41.100 politics.

01:18:41.660 You want

01:18:43.200 people to

01:18:43.620 say,

01:18:44.140 all right,

01:18:44.520 I think

01:18:44.820 Pence could

01:18:45.320 stand in.

01:18:47.200 I think

01:18:47.860 he could,

01:18:48.900 and he

01:18:49.220 could.

01:18:49.800 He was

01:18:50.020 very qualified.

01:18:51.160 But he'll

01:18:51.840 be boring

01:18:52.320 and uninteresting

01:18:53.000 and he's

01:18:53.340 not our

01:18:53.620 first choice.

01:18:54.220 That's

01:18:54.460 exactly what

01:18:55.120 you want.

01:18:55.820 You need

01:18:56.440 Pence all

01:18:57.040 day long.

01:18:58.540 Pence is

01:18:59.320 the,

01:18:59.820 let me say

01:19:00.980 it again,

01:19:01.920 I don't

01:19:02.540 think Pence

01:19:03.060 gets nearly

01:19:03.580 enough credit.

01:19:05.660 Does anybody

01:19:06.340 agree with

01:19:06.760 me?

01:19:06.920 I think

01:19:08.800 Pence proved

01:19:10.960 himself to

01:19:11.560 be a

01:19:12.020 patriot at

01:19:12.940 the highest

01:19:14.080 level.

01:19:15.980 I would

01:19:16.800 thank him

01:19:17.280 for his

01:19:17.720 service more

01:19:19.400 than anybody.

01:19:21.640 Anybody.

01:19:22.720 His character

01:19:24.540 never cracked.

01:19:26.140 Think about

01:19:26.560 that.

01:19:27.600 Pence's

01:19:28.200 character

01:19:28.760 never cracked.

01:19:30.780 You could

01:19:31.200 like it or

01:19:31.680 don't like

01:19:32.180 it, but

01:19:32.540 he was

01:19:32.940 Pence.

01:19:33.680 He started

01:19:34.460 as Pence.

01:19:34.980 He ended

01:19:35.380 as Pence.

01:19:35.920 And he

01:19:37.640 was,

01:19:38.400 not only

01:19:39.020 that,

01:19:40.000 but the

01:19:40.420 craziest

01:19:40.840 thing he

01:19:41.380 ever did

01:19:41.840 turned out

01:19:42.260 to be

01:19:42.540 genius,

01:19:43.640 which was

01:19:44.960 not have

01:19:45.580 a meal

01:19:46.700 with somebody

01:19:47.220 who wasn't

01:19:47.600 his wife

01:19:48.120 unless the

01:19:49.000 wife was

01:19:49.320 there.

01:19:50.720 That rule,

01:19:51.600 you remember

01:19:51.880 the Pence

01:19:52.280 rule?

01:19:53.240 And everybody

01:19:53.660 was like,

01:19:54.220 oh,

01:19:54.560 Pence rule.

01:19:56.580 I would

01:19:57.000 not have

01:19:58.060 a meal

01:19:58.340 with a

01:19:58.900 woman that

01:19:59.520 was not

01:19:59.900 my wife

01:20:00.500 in a

01:20:01.560 business

01:20:01.820 setting.

01:20:03.180 I

01:20:03.660 wouldn't

01:20:03.820 do it.

01:20:04.160 sorry.

01:20:06.780 Now,

01:20:07.600 there may

01:20:08.020 be at

01:20:08.280 least

01:20:08.440 somebody

01:20:09.300 here

01:20:09.660 who

01:20:09.860 once

01:20:10.400 asked

01:20:10.700 me

01:20:10.860 to

01:20:11.000 lunch

01:20:11.260 and I

01:20:12.060 said no,

01:20:12.680 now you

01:20:12.920 know why.

01:20:14.900 And there

01:20:15.720 is,

01:20:15.940 I think there

01:20:16.340 is at

01:20:16.600 least one

01:20:16.980 person

01:20:17.260 watching

01:20:17.600 here who

01:20:18.020 is female

01:20:18.580 who has

01:20:20.020 asked me

01:20:20.400 to lunch

01:20:20.800 when I

01:20:21.680 was married

01:20:22.120 and I

01:20:23.080 said no.

01:20:24.360 I didn't

01:20:24.680 give the

01:20:24.980 true reason

01:20:26.080 because the

01:20:26.900 true reason

01:20:27.380 sounds like

01:20:28.800 it's going to

01:20:29.160 cause an

01:20:29.560 argument.

01:20:29.980 you're like,

01:20:31.300 oh,

01:20:31.520 she doesn't

01:20:31.960 have to

01:20:32.200 worry about

01:20:32.560 me or

01:20:33.100 I'll call

01:20:34.040 her and I'll

01:20:34.580 tell her

01:20:34.840 it's okay.

01:20:36.340 So you

01:20:36.840 don't give

01:20:37.140 a reason.

01:20:38.620 But that

01:20:38.940 was the

01:20:39.260 reason.

01:20:40.520 I wouldn't

01:20:41.100 have a

01:20:41.500 meal alone

01:20:42.160 with a

01:20:42.500 woman in

01:20:43.220 the context

01:20:43.740 of being

01:20:44.080 married or

01:20:44.620 engaged or

01:20:46.460 in a serious

01:20:47.140 relationship,

01:20:47.760 I guess.

01:20:51.100 Remember

01:20:51.580 when that

01:20:51.960 was controversial?

01:20:53.300 That wasn't

01:20:53.940 long ago.

01:20:55.340 It was not

01:20:55.960 long ago

01:20:56.540 that that was

01:20:58.480 controversial.

01:20:59.060 It's not

01:20:59.580 controversial at

01:21:00.540 all.

01:21:02.000 The Me Too

01:21:03.140 movement

01:21:03.540 completely

01:21:04.280 validated Pence

01:21:05.600 completely.

01:21:07.440 He's the

01:21:07.920 most validated

01:21:08.640 guy ever.

01:21:10.120 Now what

01:21:10.480 about Pence

01:21:11.140 refusing to

01:21:11.980 do what

01:21:12.420 Trump said

01:21:13.140 for the

01:21:14.180 certification?

01:21:17.040 You could

01:21:18.180 disagree with

01:21:18.940 what he did,

01:21:19.740 a lot of

01:21:20.040 you will,

01:21:21.180 but it was

01:21:21.880 high character.

01:21:23.760 Would you

01:21:24.340 agree with

01:21:24.720 that?

01:21:25.780 I thought

01:21:26.300 what he did

01:21:26.700 was high

01:21:27.080 character,

01:21:28.160 even if you

01:21:28.660 think he

01:21:29.000 shouldn't

01:21:29.240 have.

01:21:30.740 To me,

01:21:31.580 he put

01:21:31.940 the system

01:21:33.180 above the

01:21:33.940 outcome.

01:21:35.640 When I

01:21:36.060 see a

01:21:36.660 politician

01:21:37.060 put the

01:21:37.600 integrity

01:21:38.060 of the

01:21:38.480 system

01:21:38.880 above the

01:21:40.060 outcome,

01:21:40.820 I go,

01:21:41.340 oh,

01:21:42.020 you have

01:21:42.620 my attention

01:21:43.160 now.

01:21:44.220 Can you

01:21:44.580 do that

01:21:44.920 again?

01:21:45.900 Because if

01:21:46.300 you can

01:21:46.560 do that

01:21:46.920 more than

01:21:47.280 once,

01:21:48.500 I have

01:21:51.120 a new

01:21:51.340 favorite

01:21:51.640 candidate.

01:21:53.040 Like

01:21:53.280 somebody who

01:21:54.220 says,

01:21:54.460 I'm going

01:21:54.640 to protect

01:21:54.980 the system

01:21:55.560 even if

01:21:56.640 we're getting

01:21:57.140 a bad

01:21:57.460 result at the

01:21:58.080 moment.

01:21:58.340 The system

01:21:58.740 is more

01:21:59.020 important,

01:21:59.460 the

01:21:59.680 Constitution,

01:22:00.520 all that

01:22:00.780 stuff.

01:22:04.420 I don't

01:22:05.180 think that

01:22:05.660 Pence is

01:22:06.080 my first

01:22:06.480 choice or

01:22:07.260 even first

01:22:08.740 through fifth

01:22:09.220 choice for

01:22:09.720 president,

01:22:10.600 but I think

01:22:11.360 we have to

01:22:11.740 say as a

01:22:12.160 vice president

01:22:12.740 he was

01:22:13.600 first right.

01:22:15.560 so I'm

01:22:17.080 going to

01:22:17.220 give him

01:22:17.480 that.

01:22:19.940 All right,

01:22:20.820 and on

01:22:21.900 that note,

01:22:22.780 I'm going

01:22:23.460 to go and

01:22:24.560 let's see if

01:22:24.980 we can

01:22:25.220 download this

01:22:25.920 YouTube video

01:22:26.880 and I

01:22:28.140 think this

01:22:28.460 was the

01:22:28.820 best live

01:22:29.840 stream of

01:22:30.220 the day.

01:22:31.440 Bye for

01:22:31.800 now,

01:22:32.200 Spotify and

01:22:33.040 YouTube.

01:22:33.300 Thank you.

01:22:33.400 Thank you.

01:22:33.420 Thank you.

01:22:33.440 Thank you.
