Real Coffee with Scott Adams - Episode 1854 Scott Adams： I Bet You Want Me To Talk About Biden's Scary Speech

00:00:00.000 Good morning, everybody, and welcome to the highlight of civilization, where everything is good.

00:00:08.540 I overslept a little bit, so I haven't checked the news today to see if anything's happening. Let's see.

00:00:13.660 Checking the news. It says Biden gave some kind of a speech, it looks like.

00:00:19.340 What are they saying about it?

00:00:30.000 No, just kidding. I got up early and listened to the whole speech.

00:00:37.220 So, what's your mood this morning? How do you feel after that Biden speech?

00:00:42.980 Do you feel unified? We're going to get into all of that.

00:00:47.220 But how would you like to take it up a level? Yeah, I know you would.

00:00:52.300 And all you need to do that is a cupper mugger, a glass of tanker, chalice of stein, a canteen jugger flask, a vessel of any kind.

00:00:58.580 And fill it with your favorite liquid.

00:01:02.960 I like coffee.

00:01:04.980 And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure of the dopamine here today, the thing that makes everything better, including unity.

00:01:12.420 It's called the simultaneous sip.

00:01:15.120 Happens now. Go.

00:01:21.260 Oh.

00:01:23.900 Well, that was the first perfect moment of my day.

00:01:26.780 I feel like the rest is going to be pretty good, too.

00:01:31.160 What would surprise you the most about this live stream?

00:01:36.580 What would be the most surprising thing I could do today?

00:01:42.620 Be an optimist.

00:01:44.320 I could be an optimist.

00:01:46.320 You didn't see that coming, did you?

00:01:49.100 Everything is good.

00:01:51.500 Everything's good.

00:01:52.200 Not everything.

00:01:55.040 But we're heading in the right direction.

00:01:57.040 And I am going to change your mind very soon.

00:02:01.760 By the end of this live stream, you're going to say to yourself,

00:02:04.440 huh, I woke up all worked up and angry and now I'm feeling kind of cool.

00:02:10.160 That's what's going to happen.

00:02:11.860 That's coming at you.

00:02:13.100 And I feel sorry for the people who are not here.

00:02:14.980 Here's a question I asked on Twitter.

00:02:19.120 I didn't see the answer yet.

00:02:20.900 Which would save more lives from this point forward?

00:02:25.040 Right.

00:02:25.280 So we're not talking about the past.

00:02:27.460 So we're not talking about however many people have already died in the pandemic.

00:02:31.400 That's the past.

00:02:32.660 From this point forward, which of these two actions would save more lives?

00:02:37.380 That's getting everybody vaccinated and boosted or asking everybody in the United States to keep Narcan in their cars and in their homes too.

00:02:49.700 But the car would be even more useful because the car goes where you go.

00:02:54.000 It's not even close.

00:02:55.700 So Narcan is what you take for an overdose.

00:02:57.580 Now, can somebody clarify, is Narcan only for fentanyl overdose or does it work for generic overdose?

00:03:08.120 Any opioid, right?

00:03:09.840 So any opioid?

00:03:10.740 Okay.

00:03:11.680 So Narcan is pretty magic stuff.

00:03:17.380 The only thing bad about Narcan that I understand, I may not be fully informed,

00:03:23.400 but the only thing bad about Narcan is whether you have it available.

00:03:28.060 If somebody's got an overdose and you've got the Narcan, you don't have to be a doctor.

00:03:33.120 Apparently you just, I don't know, spray it up their nose or whatever the hell you do with it.

00:03:36.560 I don't know how you administer it, but apparently it's something an individual could do.

00:03:42.060 And we've got 100,000 people dying of overdoses every year.

00:03:46.740 How many of the 100,000 who died of overdoses were close to an automobile, meaning one was parked somewhere in the neighborhood?

00:03:56.700 All of them, probably.

00:03:58.300 Probably every single person was near an automobile somewhere, like parked on the street or something.

00:04:03.520 So if we just said, hey, let's just put a Narcan in every car, it doesn't stop the epidemic.

00:04:12.780 But are you telling me that wouldn't save more people?

00:04:15.340 And by the way, it should be voluntary.

00:04:16.500 So the two things our government should be telling us to do is where to get the Narcan, maybe paying for it, maybe even paying for it, like they did with the vaccinations.

00:04:27.600 But telling us to keep it in the car, because China and the cartels are attacking the United States, and you need to defend yourself. 0.69

00:04:36.060 And you need to defend your fellow citizens.

00:04:38.620 It's not even about you.

00:04:39.780 So you may say to yourself, you know, damn those addicts, it's their own fault.

00:04:45.880 Yeah, yeah, but it costs you money too, right?

00:04:49.620 So take care of yourself by making sure that your citizens are not dying for no reason.

00:04:55.480 That's how you take care of yourself as well.

00:04:58.000 So that's my public service idea for the day.

00:05:01.580 Rasmussen says the Republicans have a five-point lead going into the congressional ballots.

00:05:11.460 I don't know how much to trust that five-point lead or any of these congressional things, but it seems consistent.

00:05:20.640 It seems like everybody is giving the Republicans at least a little bit of an edge.

00:05:24.120 Trump quite smartly started dangling pardons for the January 6th protesters.

00:05:34.920 Now, there might be some, you know, some of you would have to make an exception for,

00:05:40.000 because obviously some of them did some, you know, dangerous stuff, violent stuff.

00:05:44.340 I don't think they need to get pardoned, do you?

00:05:48.040 Does anybody think that the ones who actually committed violence should be pardoned?

00:05:54.120 Yeah, that's not, oh, I got a yes.

00:05:57.960 Somebody said yes.

00:05:59.520 Somebody said all of them.

00:06:01.100 You know, I'm going to, I think I'm going to surprise you.

00:06:09.500 Yeah, he could do all of them.

00:06:12.100 He could do all of them.

00:06:13.520 See, here's the thing, is that I believe they were incited,

00:06:17.560 but not necessarily just by Trump.

00:06:24.120 Yeah, you can't keep people alive if they want to overdose, that's true.

00:06:31.080 So, I don't know, I like this as a political strategy.

00:06:36.140 If we just talk about it politically and don't talk about it in right and wrong terms,

00:06:40.540 because that's a separate question, it matters.

00:06:43.240 The right and wrong matters.

00:06:44.780 But for the moment, is it a good political move?

00:06:47.960 I think yes, because I don't see anybody voting against Trump because of this, do you?

00:06:56.500 Do you think anybody would vote against Trump solely because of the January 6th potential pardons?

00:07:03.420 You think so?

00:07:04.880 I don't know, I don't see many people doing that.

00:07:07.500 But I can certainly see it being a single point of voting for some conservatives.

00:07:12.240 Because when I heard that, you know what the first thing I thought was?

00:07:17.720 Oh shit, I might actually register and vote.

00:07:21.060 Because then I wouldn't be voting for Trump, would I?

00:07:25.680 Basically, it would give me a way to vote for citizens.

00:07:29.320 Wouldn't it?

00:07:30.660 If Trump says I'll give a pardon to all of them,

00:07:33.380 or the ones who didn't do violent stuff, let's say, whatever it is,

00:07:37.000 that gives you a direct way to vote for the citizens,

00:07:41.760 assuming he keeps his promise and wins.

00:07:45.060 So that didn't exist before, did it?

00:07:47.780 Usually you're voting for the candidate.

00:07:50.120 But he's actually giving you an opportunity to vote to free American citizens.

00:07:55.420 I don't think I would necessarily walk to the voting booth or even mail in a ballot

00:08:00.080 if all I'm getting out of it is the president that I voted for.

00:08:04.900 If that's all I'm getting out of it, I don't know if I bother, honestly.

00:08:09.100 I mean, I don't vote for other reasons.

00:08:10.580 I don't like it to bias me.

00:08:12.180 But I wouldn't feel like it was biasing me if I were not voting for the candidate.

00:08:17.560 I'm just voting to free the citizens.

00:08:19.900 And only one of them offers that option.

00:08:21.640 So I'll go, okay, I'll take the option of freeing these citizens.

00:08:26.240 So to me, it looks like Trump played it correct.

00:08:29.980 Because it does activate people who feel like me, anyway.

00:08:33.800 I don't know if it'll activate any of you, but I could feel it.

00:08:38.660 I could feel the persuasion.

00:08:41.500 Like I actually was incentivized to act, to actually get up and move and register.

00:08:47.840 Like I felt all that really strongly.

00:08:50.020 And it wasn't because of Trump.

00:08:52.300 I want to say that again clearly.

00:08:55.040 It wasn't because of voting for Trump.

00:08:57.320 It's because there was an option to free some citizens.

00:09:00.700 That's all.

00:09:01.060 Don Lemon was arguing that when Biden calls the mega-extremists semi-fascists,

00:09:15.360 that's not nearly as bad as fascists.

00:09:18.520 That's not nearly as bad.

00:09:20.100 So stop saying that he's calling them fascists.

00:09:23.340 Because he's calling them semi-fascists.

00:09:25.740 So it's not like calling somebody a Nazi.

00:09:30.620 It's like, you're a neo-Nazi.

00:09:33.780 You're not a full Nazi.

00:09:34.980 You're more neo, sort of new age.

00:09:38.180 You're not fully as bad as the other ones.

00:09:40.820 And then to Don Lemon, I think I'd have to agree with him, just in terms of how language works.

00:09:53.800 Semi is lessonful.

00:09:56.200 So he's not wrong about that.

00:09:58.680 And that's sort of a half-wit thing to say.

00:10:03.160 Half-assed.

00:10:04.940 Semi-fascist.

00:10:06.040 All right.

00:10:08.960 How many of you have seen the Democrats' video compilation of Republicans calling Democrats fascists?

00:10:18.440 Have you seen it?

00:10:19.940 Or are you in a news bubble?

00:10:22.280 This is a test of your news bubble.

00:10:24.940 How many of you have seen the compilation clip of how many times Republicans have called Democrats fascists?

00:10:32.520 Because it turns out that they've done it quite a bit in public.

00:10:39.020 But, oh, play it, you say.

00:10:40.860 Play it.

00:10:42.020 It's on my Twitter feed if you want to play it.

00:10:43.800 But here's my point.

00:10:46.400 I saw a Democrat tweet that around.

00:10:49.780 Who was it?

00:10:51.400 Mehdi Hassan.

00:10:53.660 So he's on Twitter.

00:10:55.080 I don't know what else he is.

00:10:56.060 But he tweets, Fox and the Republicans are losing their minds over Joe Biden calling Meg a semi-fascist.

00:11:06.460 But they'd never call their political opponents fascists.

00:11:09.880 Right?

00:11:10.740 Right?

00:11:13.200 You'll be shocked.

00:11:14.340 Shocked, I tell you.

00:11:15.300 Roll the tape.

00:11:15.980 And then he shows the compilation.

00:11:18.080 But here's where he goes slightly wrong.

00:11:20.500 The compilation that he's showing shows Republicans saying fascist policies.

00:11:30.620 Fascist policies.

00:11:33.200 This is acting fascist.

00:11:36.600 It's fascist-like.

00:11:39.380 It's similar to fascism. 0.56

00:11:42.760 And they were always talking about politicians.

00:11:47.120 Politicians.

00:11:48.800 Politicians having policies.

00:11:51.060 Similar to fascism.

00:11:52.540 That's normal political speech.

00:11:55.120 What is not normal is saying that the voters are fascists.

00:11:58.640 Or semi-fascists.

00:12:00.520 Yeah.

00:12:00.880 Let's say semi-fascists.

00:12:02.480 That's different.

00:12:03.940 So that compilation was clever.

00:12:06.080 Because if you were not very discerning, you'd think, oh, those look the same.

00:12:09.800 But they are completely different.

00:12:12.140 There's a big difference between saying these policies are getting a little bit too controlling

00:12:17.760 and taking too much of our freedom.

00:12:19.480 And people will call that semi-fascist, right?

00:12:23.160 That is really different.

00:12:25.180 Really different than calling people and voters fascists.

00:12:29.600 Or even semi-fascists.

00:12:31.040 So I did wake up and watch.

00:12:35.160 I'm glad that I didn't watch it before I went to sleep.

00:12:38.700 Did any of you watch the Biden speech and then try to go to sleep?

00:12:42.820 Because that feels like that would have been a bad strategy.

00:12:45.180 I watched it in the morning when I wasn't yet full of hate.

00:12:51.820 My tank was empty.

00:12:53.800 So I had lots of room for some extra hate to fill it up.

00:12:57.800 But I woke up this morning.

00:13:00.420 And the first tweet I saw was a Sertovich tweet talking about a, what did he say, a Hitler

00:13:08.380 aesthetic?

00:13:09.020 And I thought, well, that's perfect.

00:13:13.860 The speech did, in fact, have a Hitler aesthetic.

00:13:17.920 Now, it was sort of Hitler-Satan aesthetic. 0.83

00:13:22.420 I saw a little bit more Satan than Hitler. 0.80

00:13:25.540 But you could definitely see both.

00:13:27.960 Right?

00:13:28.260 It was sort of a Satan-dominant hybrid.

00:13:35.060 It was definitely a hybrid of Satan plus Hitler. 0.82

00:13:37.580 But I think it was a sativa, I'm sorry, not sativa, Satan-dominant.

00:13:43.640 Satan-dominant.

00:13:45.480 Yeah.

00:13:46.880 Because I compare everything to weed, but that's just me.

00:13:51.520 So, one of the things I, have you seen the hashtag pedo Hitler?

00:13:58.280 Hashtag pedo Hitler. 0.84

00:13:59.440 Now, here again, here again, we see the difference between Republicans and Democrats.

00:14:12.580 When Democrats call Trump Hitler, don't they act like they're totally serious?

00:14:20.340 They do, right?

00:14:21.560 I mean, it comes off as serious to me.

00:14:23.440 But when you see the hashtag pedo Hitler, does that come off as totally serious to you?

00:14:31.580 That doesn't feel totally serious, does it?

00:14:33.540 Even though the accusations are serious, right?

00:14:36.080 They're both based on serious accusations.

00:14:38.420 But when somebody says hashtag pedo Hitler, some of that's fun. 0.95

00:14:44.020 Would you give me that?

00:14:46.180 Some of that's about the spirit of the fight, right?

00:14:48.860 It's about just enjoying the dust-up.

00:14:54.400 But it was funny as hell, and I laughed at it.

00:14:56.840 Now, I have not been on, I think you would agree.

00:15:00.660 Can anybody give me a fact check on this?

00:15:03.000 I have not been on the pedo thing.

00:15:06.580 That's not my beat.

00:15:07.760 I'm not covering that at all.

00:15:10.060 Can we agree?

00:15:10.900 That's just not my thing.

00:15:12.760 Because it's just too icky, and you never know who did really want,

00:15:16.540 and it's all accusations.

00:15:18.860 It just isn't where I want to go.

00:15:21.680 But then Joe Biden went all the way to labeling a big part of the country as semi-fascist,

00:15:30.320 and I thought, okay, it's fair now.

00:15:34.180 Now it's fair.

00:15:35.680 I was feeling it was a little too far.

00:15:39.040 But he's just broadened the, I think he's broadened the game.

00:15:42.620 It's fair now.

00:15:43.840 In fact, I don't know if I'll ever call him anything else except pedo Hitler. 0.94

00:15:47.000 I don't know if I'll call him anything else.

00:15:49.740 He's just pedo Hitler from now on. 0.92

00:15:53.020 I'll probably get tired of that, but for now.

00:15:56.960 All right.

00:15:57.960 So let's talk about, and people were saying that Trump said bad things too.

00:16:04.220 And one of the examples was he said, you know, things about windmills that are not true.

00:16:09.320 And I thought, yeah, yeah.

00:16:10.620 On one hand, you've got pedo Hitler declaring civil war against citizens. 0.59

00:16:17.580 And on the other hand, Trump says you can't watch TV if the windmills stop, which, of course, he doesn't mean.

00:16:25.080 He doesn't mean that literally.

00:16:26.640 And I think the Democrats have decided, oh, it's about equal.

00:16:32.560 Well, one of them has declared war on citizens of the United States, and the other one thinks that you won't be able to watch TV if the wind stops blowing.

00:16:40.440 But not really.

00:16:41.460 It's obviously a joke.

00:16:44.100 So, yeah, that's about the same.

00:16:47.660 All right.

00:16:48.280 So here are some of the things that angry Joe said.

00:16:51.920 And I will give you, again, a Cernovich summary.

00:16:56.840 And by the way, this is one of those situations where the people you need sort of rise.

00:17:04.200 Have you noticed that?

00:17:06.440 There are some people who just stay dormant until you need them.

00:17:10.300 It's like, you know, break glass in emergency.

00:17:13.340 And Cernovich is a break glass in emergency kind of guy.

00:17:16.980 Like, he's always there.

00:17:18.600 Right?

00:17:18.860 He's always there.

00:17:20.180 You never forget him.

00:17:22.540 But sometimes you've got to break the glass.

00:17:25.900 And I think the glass just got broken.

00:17:27.980 So I'm not sure.

00:17:30.940 But I think Cernovich just became unleashed.

00:17:34.000 Now, he's not pro-Trump, remember.

00:17:36.920 He's not pro-Trump.

00:17:38.680 But Cernovich unleashed is just a good time.

00:17:41.940 So let's see what happens there.

00:17:43.580 And don't think you can predict it, because that's what's fun about him,

00:17:46.800 is you don't know where he's going to end up on anything.

00:17:50.620 So here are the things Angry Joe said.

00:17:52.860 And why did I bring up Cernovich again?

00:17:57.460 Oh, because he was characterizing the speech as basically foreshadowing Trump's indictment.

00:18:04.380 Do you go that far?

00:18:07.820 Do you think that Biden's speech was preparing the country for the certainty of Trump being indicted?

00:18:16.020 Do you think that's coming?

00:18:20.220 It feels like it.

00:18:22.260 So, you know, the future is hard to predict.

00:18:24.640 But I would agree with Cernovich that it feels like it.

00:18:29.040 It has that vibe to it, doesn't it?

00:18:31.180 It doesn't mean it's true, but definitely feels like it.

00:18:34.040 So from a political standpoint, this is one of the biggest mistakes I've ever seen.

00:18:38.580 But we'll see how it plays out.

00:18:43.000 So here's some more of the things that Angry Joe said.

00:18:46.060 I just wrote down, like, pieces of sentences.

00:18:50.260 Democracy under assault.

00:18:52.380 Threats we face.

00:18:54.440 He actually made the phrase, we the people, sound evil.

00:18:57.380 Did you notice that?

00:18:58.100 Have you ever heard the phrase, we the people, ever sound dangerous?

00:19:05.820 He actually made it sound dangerous the way he angry shouted it.

00:19:09.280 I thought, whoa, how do you make those words sound evil?

00:19:13.360 Those are like the most unevil words ever written in the English language, we the people.

00:19:19.320 And he made it sound dangerous.

00:19:21.520 Oh, my God.

00:19:22.140 All right, he said, the Trump and the MAGA extremists threaten the core of the republic.

00:19:29.500 Huh, what do you do to people who threaten the core of the republic?

00:19:33.640 What would be the appropriate reaction to people who threaten the core of the republic?

00:19:38.780 Pretty extreme.

00:19:41.300 He said, not every Republican is MAGA.

00:19:44.840 But he said, MAGA is a threat to this country.

00:19:47.000 He said, that the MAGA people do not believe in the Constitution.

00:19:58.760 That is literally the opposite of their brand.

00:20:03.520 That's the most opposite gaslighting you'll ever see.

00:20:08.060 Even if you said the worst things about the January Sixers and MAGA were all true. 0.53

00:20:13.380 Let's say you just accepted all the worst accusations.

00:20:19.400 None of them are about not wanting the Constitution.

00:20:23.200 The Constitution is all they want.

00:20:25.640 It's literally rule one.

00:20:29.340 I mean, it's just so weird that he can say that in public.

00:20:32.760 And the Democrats will...

00:20:34.120 I feel like the Democrats will be, yeah, yeah.

00:20:37.620 That's a good point.

00:20:38.640 The people whose entire philosophy is wrapped around strict adherence to the Constitution.

00:20:45.660 And they were so worried that the Constitution had not been followed in a non-fraudulent way

00:20:52.160 that they actually put their lives and livelihoods on the line to see if they could fix it.

00:20:57.800 The people who cared so much about the Constitution

00:21:00.220 that they risked their lives to protect it.

00:21:04.760 And Biden has painted them as not believing in the Constitution.

00:21:09.320 I don't...

00:21:09.980 It's just...

00:21:11.000 It's mind-boggling.

00:21:12.800 You know, there are lots of things where you can say to yourself,

00:21:14.620 okay, I see your point.

00:21:16.320 Like, even if you don't...

00:21:17.260 Even if you don't agree with it,

00:21:19.700 sometimes you can say, yeah, I don't agree with that,

00:21:21.600 but I see where you're coming from.

00:21:23.220 I get the point.

00:21:24.520 There's no point here at all.

00:21:25.680 This is purely saying zero is one and wet is dry and up is down.

00:21:31.620 That's all that is.

00:21:33.060 And it works.

00:21:34.160 And it works.

00:21:35.080 Because the news bubbles will keep anybody from hearing the counter to it.

00:21:40.100 All right, here's some other things he says.

00:21:41.340 He says that the MAGA people don't accept the results of elections,

00:21:47.560 as if that's limited to one side.

00:21:50.660 That they give power to partisan cronies.

00:21:53.280 They undermine democracy itself,

00:21:55.240 taking the country backwards.

00:21:57.880 They might say that you have no right to marry who you love.

00:22:02.060 Right?

00:22:02.260 Biden says that the risk of these MAGA extremists

00:22:05.520 is that you won't be able to marry who you love.

00:22:11.100 Okay.

00:22:12.260 They're fanning the flames of political violence.

00:22:16.880 And more about the soul of the country.

00:22:19.220 And they're a mob that stormed the Capitol.

00:22:21.560 They're insurrectionists, not patriots.

00:22:24.600 Clear and present danger to our democracy.

00:22:27.800 There it is.

00:22:28.680 Clear and present danger.

00:22:30.520 What do you do when there's a clear and present danger?

00:22:34.040 Well, you don't just talk about it.

00:22:36.040 Do you?

00:22:36.520 Do you just make a speech?

00:22:38.140 If there's a clear and present danger,

00:22:40.080 those are words of action, not talk.

00:22:43.100 Clear and present danger says we're putting assets in action.

00:22:47.320 Am I wrong?

00:22:49.300 If the president, who's the head of the military,

00:22:53.980 says there's a clear and present danger,

00:22:56.800 that means the talking is done.

00:22:59.480 Am I wrong?

00:23:01.080 Am I interpreting that wrong?

00:23:03.600 To me, that means the talking is done.

00:23:05.960 Clear and present danger.

00:23:07.860 You wouldn't use that language

00:23:09.440 if you're talking about a potential danger,

00:23:12.400 a future danger,

00:23:13.480 a thing that might be bad,

00:23:15.080 a thing to be aware of,

00:23:16.700 a thing to be wary of,

00:23:17.840 a thing to vote against.

00:23:18.900 You wouldn't say clear and present danger.

00:23:23.120 Clear and present danger says fire the missiles.

00:23:26.620 Right?

00:23:28.760 I don't know how else to interpret that.

00:23:30.680 He says, you know,

00:23:35.140 extreme mega, fear, division, and darkness.

00:23:37.560 They thrive on chaos,

00:23:39.200 anger, shadows of lies.

00:23:42.160 We're a nation that honors the rule of law,

00:23:44.500 meaning that they don't.

00:23:46.020 Blind loyalty to a single leader

00:23:48.000 and willingness to engage in violence.

00:23:50.420 Extremists who pursue power over any blah, blah, blah.

00:23:53.120 Mega Republicans are destroying American democracy. 0.91

00:23:55.820 Violence is never acceptable tool.

00:23:59.020 So you can see the setup here, right?

00:24:02.660 The setup is that the government

00:24:04.800 is planning to do something to Republicans

00:24:07.160 that Republicans might naturally think

00:24:10.900 a violent response was appropriate. 0.99

00:24:14.520 And so he's making sure that he's primed you

00:24:17.680 to say that violence is never acceptable.

00:24:21.300 Let me be really clear.

00:24:22.760 Violence is totally acceptable.

00:24:25.180 How do you think the country was formed?

00:24:27.660 The United States was formed entirely on violence.

00:24:31.480 Violence is completely acceptable.

00:24:33.720 That's one reason we have the Second Amendment. 1.00

00:24:35.940 Violence is not only acceptable,

00:24:38.780 it's required.

00:24:40.660 It's required.

00:24:43.040 And so don't let anybody tell you

00:24:44.920 that violence is unacceptable

00:24:46.340 in a context where some of the country

00:24:49.120 might get rounded up.

00:24:51.740 It's definitely not acceptable

00:24:53.560 in normal times under normal situations.

00:24:56.280 And we're definitely still under normal times.

00:24:59.960 So let me say as clearly as I can,

00:25:03.020 we're nowhere near a revolution.

00:25:04.480 We're nowhere near it.

00:25:07.080 That if you walk outside

00:25:08.340 and you stop looking at Twitter and your TV,

00:25:12.120 everything's fine.

00:25:14.360 You should try it.

00:25:15.920 Just walk outside.

00:25:17.460 There's nothing happening out there.

00:25:19.700 As soon as I walk out my door,

00:25:21.040 there's just nothing happening.

00:25:22.480 It's like the neighbors are walking the dogs.

00:25:24.740 Like, hey, Scott, how you doing?

00:25:26.840 How's Snickers doing?

00:25:28.020 Oh, she's great. 0.89

00:25:28.900 She's slowing down a little bit.

00:25:30.640 All right.

00:25:31.460 I like your show.

00:25:32.500 Thanks.

00:25:33.060 See you tomorrow.

00:25:35.840 That's what happens when I walk outside.

00:25:37.700 What happens to you?

00:25:39.420 Yeah, we're nowhere near it.

00:25:41.080 This is just political fuckery.

00:25:43.620 That's all it is.

00:25:46.120 Everything's fine.

00:25:48.140 Not only that,

00:25:49.080 but wait till I get to the good part.

00:25:51.060 There's a good part coming.

00:25:53.140 So let's see.

00:25:54.840 We've got almost 4,000 people on YouTube.

00:25:58.620 The locals people wanted to know

00:26:00.000 how many people would show up.

00:26:01.900 All right.

00:26:02.240 So here's what else they say.

00:26:05.980 All right.

00:26:10.340 And we can't allow violence to be normalized.

00:26:14.160 Well, I agree with that.

00:26:15.460 You don't want violence to be normalized,

00:26:17.980 for sure.

00:26:18.600 But here's what Charlie Kirk noticed

00:26:23.720 about the speech in a tweet.

00:26:25.880 Here are the number of things

00:26:26.980 that Biden mentioned.

00:26:28.900 The number of times he mentioned

00:26:30.300 to China, zero.

00:26:32.260 Crime, zero.

00:26:33.740 Inflation, zero.

00:26:35.700 Fentanyl, zero.

00:26:37.280 The border, zero.

00:26:39.620 Charlottesville,

00:26:41.080 the fine people hoax, once.

00:26:43.040 January 6th, hoax, twice.

00:26:45.620 The insurrection, hoax, same thing.

00:26:47.760 So I guess that's five times

00:26:49.080 he mentioned that.

00:26:50.300 Trump, three times.

00:26:54.640 Extremism, seven times.

00:26:55.840 Violence, 10.

00:26:56.740 MAGA, 13.

00:26:57.760 And Republicans, 16.

00:27:00.100 Now, you do not have to be

00:27:01.780 a political genius

00:27:02.860 to conclude the following.

00:27:05.740 They are trying to distract you

00:27:07.620 from the more complicated things

00:27:11.860 that don't work for their side.

00:27:13.260 They don't want you to think

00:27:14.860 about the economy.

00:27:15.900 They don't want you to think

00:27:16.580 about Afghanistan.

00:27:17.860 They don't want you to think

00:27:18.940 about anything but this.

00:27:21.120 So the reason that they're

00:27:22.520 stoking your emotions

00:27:23.960 is to get you off the trail

00:27:26.720 of the other stuff.

00:27:28.480 But also, as Mike Serovich

00:27:30.680 pointed out quite accurately,

00:27:33.000 they could be priming us

00:27:34.900 for some arrests

00:27:36.080 that would include Trump.

00:27:38.840 So they could be priming

00:27:40.240 the country and also testing it,

00:27:41.640 maybe testing the attitude

00:27:43.040 of the country.

00:27:45.060 But here's something else

00:27:47.480 that Joe Biden just did.

00:27:50.040 I don't know if you noticed.

00:27:52.660 He just gave up the high ground.

00:27:55.380 He just gave up the high ground.

00:27:58.140 Now, how do you fight Trump?

00:28:01.360 Trump likes to fight

00:28:02.860 in the gutter, right?

00:28:03.900 He likes to fight in the gutter.

00:28:05.460 What happens if you go down

00:28:06.860 into the gutter

00:28:07.600 and fight Trump

00:28:08.580 where he likes to fight?

00:28:09.640 How does that work out for you?

00:28:12.160 How did it work out

00:28:12.840 for Marco Rubio

00:28:13.880 and the other Republicans

00:28:16.060 who tried to do it

00:28:16.860 for about a minute?

00:28:17.920 It doesn't work.

00:28:18.860 It doesn't work.

00:28:19.680 So if you try to fight

00:28:20.660 Trump in the gutter,

00:28:22.660 Trump wins.

00:28:24.940 Right?

00:28:25.760 What happens if you try

00:28:26.900 to take the high road?

00:28:28.780 What happens if you take

00:28:29.620 the high road?

00:28:31.500 Well, you could argue

00:28:32.660 that that's what Biden did

00:28:33.800 when he ran for president.

00:28:35.700 And how did he do?

00:28:36.600 Well, allegedly, he won.

00:28:39.640 Allegedly.

00:28:43.900 So Biden knows

00:28:46.020 how to beat Trump.

00:28:48.020 Biden absolutely knows

00:28:49.500 how to beat him.

00:28:49.940 Just take the high road.

00:28:51.740 Now, do you think

00:28:52.960 that Trump

00:28:53.540 is not smart enough

00:28:55.840 to know that the high road

00:28:56.880 has been abandoned?

00:28:58.460 It's completely vacant.

00:29:01.220 It's the best real...

00:29:02.440 Let me put it in Trump terms.

00:29:05.200 Biden just evacuated

00:29:07.160 the best real estate

00:29:09.300 in the country.

00:29:11.060 The best real estate

00:29:12.420 in the country

00:29:12.880 is the high ground.

00:29:14.500 Everybody loves

00:29:15.220 the high ground.

00:29:16.760 That's why it's the high ground.

00:29:18.100 It's the high ground

00:29:18.760 because you don't argue with it.

00:29:20.420 Now, let me tell you

00:29:21.140 a Trump strategy

00:29:22.020 where he takes

00:29:23.440 this boner from Biden

00:29:25.720 and just walks

00:29:27.320 into the White House

00:29:28.300 with practically

00:29:29.020 no friction.

00:29:31.380 Now, everybody does this

00:29:35.620 and it's really annoying

00:29:36.620 when you pretend

00:29:38.400 like you're telling

00:29:39.160 the president

00:29:39.700 what he should say or do.

00:29:41.820 Here's why that's annoying.

00:29:44.240 If anybody could tell Trump

00:29:45.980 what to say or do,

00:29:47.760 they would have told him

00:29:48.740 to do things differently

00:29:50.100 than he did them

00:29:50.940 and he wouldn't have been president.

00:29:52.980 So every time you think

00:29:54.240 you know how to give him advice,

00:29:56.900 just take a step back.

00:29:58.380 Just consider your humility

00:30:01.980 for a moment.

00:30:04.020 Just consider

00:30:05.080 that whatever he's doing

00:30:07.200 seems to get a certain effect

00:30:08.880 and you don't know

00:30:10.000 if you could do that.

00:30:12.000 So when he does things

00:30:13.240 that you wouldn't do,

00:30:14.780 it doesn't mean it's wrong.

00:30:17.060 It doesn't mean it won't work out.

00:30:18.400 It's just you wouldn't

00:30:19.140 have done it that way.

00:30:20.660 So I'm going to do

00:30:21.720 the same cringy thing,

00:30:22.960 but I'm doing it

00:30:24.760 in the context

00:30:25.620 of trying to

00:30:26.380 give you a lesson

00:30:28.180 on persuasion.

00:30:29.780 So my context

00:30:30.920 is more about

00:30:31.680 explaining why it would work.

00:30:34.320 I don't have any illusion

00:30:35.740 that Trump will do it.

00:30:37.900 So it's more about

00:30:38.680 the lesson.

00:30:40.840 Imagine if you will,

00:30:42.280 and again,

00:30:42.720 it's purely imaginary,

00:30:44.560 that Trump says,

00:30:45.660 I'm going to give a speech

00:30:46.460 on national unity.

00:30:50.380 Boom.

00:30:50.780 Mic drop.

00:30:54.080 And it's going to be

00:30:54.980 in a week.

00:30:57.760 Boom.

00:31:00.260 Now,

00:31:00.900 what might that

00:31:01.860 national unity speech say?

00:31:04.120 Well,

00:31:04.640 we would have a week

00:31:05.420 to talk about

00:31:06.160 nothing else.

00:31:07.880 Imagine having

00:31:08.660 the whole weekend

00:31:09.560 to wonder

00:31:10.660 what Trump will say.

00:31:13.180 Because it's going to be

00:31:14.060 a slow news weekend, right?

00:31:15.900 Trump can completely

00:31:17.460 kneecap

00:31:18.240 everything the Biden said

00:31:19.800 by saying that he's

00:31:21.260 planning to give

00:31:22.000 a unity speech.

00:31:23.600 You would be so curious

00:31:25.160 what that fucking speech

00:31:26.360 would be about.

00:31:28.180 You wouldn't be able

00:31:29.080 to think about

00:31:29.600 anything else.

00:31:31.120 Because you'd ask yourself,

00:31:32.640 is he going to go

00:31:33.360 hard at Biden,

00:31:34.700 or is he going to take

00:31:36.160 a more clever,

00:31:37.600 you know,

00:31:38.540 Trump-like tactic

00:31:39.500 that you just didn't

00:31:40.260 see coming?

00:31:41.160 Like,

00:31:41.540 the Trump way

00:31:42.160 is the thing

00:31:42.640 you didn't see coming,

00:31:43.440 basically.

00:31:43.780 Let me just give you

00:31:46.240 some suggestions

00:31:47.020 of something

00:31:47.800 Trump could say

00:31:48.680 from the high ground.

00:31:50.940 Are you ready?

00:31:52.260 Now watch to see

00:31:53.540 if you get goosebumps.

00:31:55.100 This will be your test.

00:31:56.500 If any of this

00:31:57.320 gives you a goosebumps,

00:31:58.500 then you know

00:31:59.040 I'm on the right track,

00:32:00.120 right?

00:32:00.560 Persuasion-wise.

00:32:01.720 Because one of the good

00:32:02.400 ways to test persuasion

00:32:03.620 is if it has a physical

00:32:04.880 effect on you.

00:32:06.280 Like I said earlier,

00:32:08.280 that, you know,

00:32:09.800 if something has

00:32:10.260 a physical effect on you,

00:32:11.400 you know that's

00:32:12.100 good persuasion.

00:32:13.700 All right,

00:32:13.940 so here are some

00:32:14.420 things he could say.

00:32:17.160 Imagine saying,

00:32:18.960 folks,

00:32:19.500 let's forget about

00:32:20.580 the 2020 election,

00:32:24.140 but what I would like

00:32:25.140 to bring the country

00:32:25.880 together with

00:32:26.680 is a bipartisan

00:32:28.040 election reform commission.

00:32:32.220 Bipartisan election

00:32:33.220 reform.

00:32:34.360 You don't trust us,

00:32:35.680 we don't trust you.

00:32:37.040 Let's see if we can

00:32:37.800 fix that.

00:32:40.440 Goosebumps yet?

00:32:42.240 Yeah?

00:32:42.800 Did you get it?

00:32:43.560 I'm not done.

00:32:46.380 Number two,

00:32:47.500 ask for bipartisan

00:32:48.600 FBI reform.

00:32:52.700 Bipartisan FBI reform.

00:32:55.060 Some people think

00:32:55.900 the FBI kept

00:32:57.060 Clinton out of office,

00:32:58.660 and maybe they did.

00:33:00.000 Maybe they did.

00:33:00.780 I'm not sure I buy that,

00:33:02.520 but it's not crazy.

00:33:04.460 So the FBI has moved

00:33:06.100 against both Republicans

00:33:07.220 and Democrats,

00:33:08.100 am I right?

00:33:08.480 They've embarrassed

00:33:10.180 both Democrats

00:33:11.200 and Republicans.

00:33:12.400 The one thing

00:33:13.280 we can agree

00:33:13.920 is that we need

00:33:14.720 to reform them.

00:33:16.960 Did you know,

00:33:17.700 for example,

00:33:18.320 that it's legal now

00:33:20.780 to do domestic propaganda?

00:33:22.800 So the government

00:33:25.680 can do domestic propaganda

00:33:27.700 is legal.

00:33:29.680 Obama signed the law

00:33:30.880 making it,

00:33:32.080 it was illegal,

00:33:33.060 and now it's legal again.

00:33:34.800 Don't you think

00:33:35.400 that the president

00:33:36.000 could say,

00:33:36.600 let's revisit that law?

00:33:39.120 Huh?

00:33:40.140 How about that?

00:33:41.320 Now,

00:33:41.560 I don't know

00:33:41.900 if that law is good

00:33:43.040 or bad,

00:33:43.860 because I haven't heard

00:33:44.400 the arguments

00:33:44.860 on both sides,

00:33:45.860 but wouldn't you love

00:33:47.060 to see him say,

00:33:48.140 let's have a bipartisan

00:33:48.980 commission,

00:33:50.080 decide if that law

00:33:51.500 still makes sense?

00:33:53.160 Because nobody's

00:33:53.900 going to say no to that.

00:33:55.420 Am I right?

00:33:56.520 You might say no

00:33:57.640 to changing it,

00:33:58.860 but you're not

00:33:59.980 going to say no

00:34:00.580 to looking into it

00:34:01.380 with a bipartisan commission.

00:34:06.500 How about this?

00:34:08.200 Ask for a bipartisan

00:34:09.320 commission

00:34:09.880 to study both

00:34:10.800 climate risks

00:34:11.840 and the risks

00:34:13.800 from cutting

00:34:14.460 fossil fuels

00:34:15.320 too quickly.

00:34:15.900 But if he does this,

00:34:20.100 he's going to have

00:34:20.860 to say in a

00:34:21.700 full-throated way,

00:34:23.400 there is risk

00:34:24.080 of climate change,

00:34:25.660 which I don't know

00:34:26.560 if he's ever said

00:34:27.460 clearly,

00:34:29.060 but he could.

00:34:31.040 He could say,

00:34:31.960 scientists tell us

00:34:32.860 there's a risk,

00:34:33.840 I'm not going

00:34:34.520 to ignore that.

00:34:35.800 But what I always

00:34:36.780 worry about

00:34:37.340 is that the risks

00:34:38.200 of overreaction

00:34:39.300 are not included.

00:34:40.740 Let's do a bipartisan

00:34:41.760 commission

00:34:42.340 where we look at

00:34:43.140 both the risks

00:34:43.860 of acting too quickly

00:34:45.020 with, you know,

00:34:46.440 let's say,

00:34:46.880 cutting fossil fuels

00:34:47.940 too quickly

00:34:48.420 compared to the risks

00:34:50.280 of not doing it

00:34:51.160 and make sure

00:34:52.000 we have a complete

00:34:52.680 picture.

00:34:54.060 Now, it's got to be

00:34:54.700 a bipartisan commission,

00:34:55.880 not some Republican-led thing.

00:34:59.720 Now, that one

00:35:00.480 you might want

00:35:00.920 to leave out

00:35:01.300 because climate change

00:35:02.100 is too provocative.

00:35:06.640 But imagine

00:35:07.420 those things.

00:35:08.580 So who's going

00:35:09.140 to say no

00:35:09.680 to bipartisan

00:35:10.380 election reform

00:35:11.440 recommendations

00:35:12.220 because it would

00:35:13.120 just be recommendations?

00:35:13.980 Bipartisan look

00:35:15.740 at the FBI,

00:35:17.240 bipartisan look

00:35:18.060 at climate risks

00:35:19.080 and all of the risks,

00:35:20.820 you know,

00:35:21.300 to basically

00:35:22.140 save the

00:35:23.140 third world countries.

00:35:25.040 And then

00:35:25.820 bipartisan look

00:35:27.500 at government

00:35:28.540 propaganda.

00:35:32.120 Am I wrong?

00:35:34.960 How about he says

00:35:36.100 the border is a mess,

00:35:38.420 but if you listen

00:35:39.740 to Elon Musk,

00:35:40.520 we have two problems.

00:35:41.880 One is, you know,

00:35:42.720 the border and crime

00:35:43.720 and things

00:35:44.400 coming across.

00:35:45.480 But the other

00:35:46.080 is a lack

00:35:46.640 of population.

00:35:48.100 Our population

00:35:48.800 might be growing

00:35:49.440 too slowly.

00:35:50.920 So I'm going

00:35:51.560 to recommend

00:35:52.000 a bipartisan

00:35:52.760 commission

00:35:53.360 of economists

00:35:55.120 to give us

00:35:56.900 a number

00:35:57.220 of how many

00:35:57.700 people should

00:35:58.200 come in

00:35:58.660 and under

00:35:59.160 what conditions.

00:36:01.360 And just say,

00:36:02.280 let the economics

00:36:03.180 drive it.

00:36:04.460 You know,

00:36:04.680 I won't even,

00:36:05.980 I'll just let

00:36:06.500 the economics

00:36:07.040 drive it.

00:36:08.560 Now,

00:36:09.560 some of my

00:36:10.120 examples,

00:36:10.860 you know,

00:36:11.020 you say,

00:36:11.420 oh,

00:36:11.560 don't do

00:36:11.940 that one.

00:36:13.080 But the

00:36:14.820 election,

00:36:15.420 the election

00:36:16.100 bipartisan

00:36:16.640 commission,

00:36:17.340 there's no way

00:36:17.800 that doesn't

00:36:18.300 work.

00:36:19.440 That just

00:36:19.880 works.

00:36:20.760 That's just

00:36:21.160 the high ground.

00:36:21.920 You can't

00:36:22.300 take it away.

00:36:23.240 How about

00:36:23.780 saying,

00:36:24.660 I want a

00:36:25.240 Narcan

00:36:25.980 in every car?

00:36:28.960 How about

00:36:29.560 there's one

00:36:29.960 thing we can

00:36:30.480 all agree on?

00:36:31.220 We put Narcan

00:36:31.880 in everybody's

00:36:32.500 car.

00:36:33.240 Not required,

00:36:34.980 not a mandate,

00:36:36.600 not a mandate,

00:36:37.440 but maybe

00:36:38.100 the government

00:36:38.500 can help

00:36:39.020 you know

00:36:40.020 where it

00:36:40.320 is and

00:36:40.740 know to

00:36:41.020 use it

00:36:41.500 and get

00:36:42.400 it in

00:36:42.620 your car.

00:36:44.360 So,

00:36:45.840 somebody says

00:36:46.540 no to that.

00:36:49.740 Now,

00:36:50.340 let me ask

00:36:51.240 you.

00:36:51.660 Here's my

00:36:52.380 proposition and

00:36:53.260 the only thing

00:36:53.720 I want to

00:36:54.080 sell to you

00:36:54.540 today.

00:36:56.260 Should you

00:36:56.820 be in a

00:36:57.580 worked up

00:36:58.080 bad mood

00:36:58.880 because of

00:37:00.340 Biden saying

00:37:01.280 all these

00:37:02.020 things?

00:37:03.040 Or should

00:37:03.680 you say

00:37:04.000 to yourself,

00:37:04.900 he just

00:37:06.280 left the

00:37:06.880 most valuable

00:37:07.560 real estate

00:37:08.300 in the

00:37:08.820 entire

00:37:09.100 country

00:37:09.580 for the

00:37:12.120 candidate

00:37:12.540 that you

00:37:12.900 might prefer,

00:37:13.500 if you

00:37:13.800 prefer Trump.

00:37:18.060 Don't let

00:37:18.740 them talk

00:37:19.600 you into

00:37:20.240 doing what

00:37:20.960 they're trying

00:37:21.400 to talk

00:37:21.780 you into,

00:37:22.220 which is

00:37:22.520 acting crazy.

00:37:24.060 Don't let

00:37:24.700 them make

00:37:25.060 you act

00:37:25.400 crazy.

00:37:26.680 Don't do

00:37:27.160 it.

00:37:28.160 Because that's

00:37:28.800 what they're

00:37:29.080 trying to do.

00:37:29.680 They're goading

00:37:30.320 you into

00:37:30.860 acting crazy.

00:37:33.120 They're goading

00:37:33.840 you into

00:37:34.380 supporting the

00:37:35.140 people who

00:37:35.560 did the

00:37:35.880 violence,

00:37:36.520 which, by

00:37:36.980 the way,

00:37:37.320 you did

00:37:37.620 this morning.

00:37:38.740 When I

00:37:39.280 said, should

00:37:39.700 Trump, you

00:37:40.940 know, pardon

00:37:42.080 everybody, there

00:37:43.760 were a bunch

00:37:44.240 of people who

00:37:44.840 immediately backed

00:37:45.840 the violent

00:37:46.440 people.

00:37:47.340 That's what

00:37:47.840 they want you

00:37:48.260 to do.

00:37:49.960 Now, I get

00:37:51.000 where you're

00:37:51.660 coming from, by

00:37:52.340 the way.

00:37:52.880 I understand

00:37:53.420 that completely,

00:37:54.220 and I'm not

00:37:54.660 even disagreeing.

00:37:56.140 But I wouldn't

00:37:56.800 say it out loud.

00:37:58.380 I wouldn't say

00:37:59.100 it out loud,

00:38:00.340 because that's

00:38:00.940 what they want

00:38:01.360 you to do.

00:38:01.760 Right.

00:38:04.480 Now, what

00:38:09.620 happens if

00:38:12.020 they indict

00:38:12.940 Trump?

00:38:14.040 What are you

00:38:14.700 going to do?

00:38:16.940 What would

00:38:17.740 you do if

00:38:19.200 they indicted

00:38:19.760 Trump before,

00:38:21.000 let's say,

00:38:21.420 before the

00:38:21.900 presidential

00:38:22.340 election, but

00:38:23.060 after the

00:38:23.480 midterms?

00:38:23.860 politics, what

00:38:25.500 would you do?

00:38:27.540 You'd vote?

00:38:28.620 You'd protest?

00:38:33.120 Yeah, maybe

00:38:33.960 you would.

00:38:35.380 Maybe you

00:38:35.900 would.

00:38:37.580 But would

00:38:39.060 you get

00:38:40.740 violent if

00:38:42.600 he's indicted

00:38:43.220 and they show

00:38:43.820 the evidence?

00:38:45.720 Not if it

00:38:46.400 goes through the

00:38:46.820 legal process.

00:38:48.180 If it's

00:38:48.780 transparent,

00:38:49.940 if it's

00:38:50.280 transparent,

00:38:50.900 it's

00:38:51.040 transparent.

00:38:52.260 I might

00:38:52.600 not like

00:38:53.060 it, but

00:38:54.060 it's not

00:38:54.300 like revolution

00:38:55.020 time.

00:38:57.000 Now, I

00:38:57.660 think that in

00:38:58.300 the end,

00:38:58.660 they're not

00:38:58.960 going to do

00:38:59.340 it.

00:39:00.640 In the end,

00:39:01.180 I don't think

00:39:01.620 they're going

00:39:01.920 to indict

00:39:02.280 him, because

00:39:02.900 I think they

00:39:03.380 know that

00:39:03.700 would be

00:39:03.960 too far.

00:39:05.700 And not

00:39:06.480 too far in

00:39:07.100 terms of it

00:39:07.800 would spark a

00:39:08.440 revolution,

00:39:09.100 because we're

00:39:09.480 nowhere near

00:39:10.080 a revolution,

00:39:10.920 but too far

00:39:11.660 in terms of it

00:39:12.400 would get too

00:39:13.400 many Republican

00:39:14.360 voters to get

00:39:15.380 off their

00:39:15.680 ass and vote. 0.99

00:39:23.640 What if

00:39:24.180 they convict

00:39:24.900 for some

00:39:26.020 BS crime?

00:39:27.160 Well,

00:39:27.380 conviction is

00:39:28.040 different.

00:39:28.820 Conviction would

00:39:29.440 take, what,

00:39:30.340 a year or two?

00:39:31.700 So you're not

00:39:32.380 even going to

00:39:32.700 have to worry

00:39:33.120 about the

00:39:33.460 conviction part

00:39:34.180 until after

00:39:34.560 the election.

00:39:35.700 And if he

00:39:36.120 gets elected,

00:39:36.820 he probably

00:39:37.160 won't be

00:39:37.500 convicted,

00:39:38.100 because he's

00:39:38.480 in office.

00:39:39.940 And if he

00:39:40.600 doesn't get

00:39:41.020 elected,

00:39:42.460 then it

00:39:43.720 doesn't change

00:39:44.260 politics

00:39:44.780 directly.

00:39:45.380 All right.

00:39:49.400 So, here's

00:39:50.700 my advice to

00:39:51.480 you.

00:39:53.700 Don't get

00:39:54.460 angry and

00:39:55.040 violent and

00:39:55.540 act crazy.

00:39:57.220 The memes

00:39:58.040 that people

00:39:58.520 are doing

00:39:58.860 about Biden

00:40:00.260 are exactly

00:40:00.960 right.

00:40:02.080 But make

00:40:02.660 sure people

00:40:03.560 know you're

00:40:04.020 joking, right?

00:40:05.860 When people

00:40:06.660 talk about

00:40:07.240 Trump, they

00:40:08.020 actually say

00:40:08.960 they think

00:40:10.040 he's going

00:40:10.380 to put people

00:40:10.860 in prison

00:40:11.340 camps and

00:40:11.860 stuff.

00:40:12.900 I do

00:40:13.340 think Biden

00:40:14.040 is dangerous

00:40:14.840 to, let's

00:40:16.940 say, public

00:40:17.460 figures who

00:40:18.440 are Republican.

00:40:19.600 If there

00:40:20.120 was any

00:40:20.380 way he

00:40:20.640 could take

00:40:20.960 a player

00:40:21.340 off the

00:40:21.720 board, I

00:40:22.140 think he

00:40:22.460 would.

00:40:23.180 But that's

00:40:23.620 politics in

00:40:24.600 general.

00:40:26.060 I feel it

00:40:26.500 works both

00:40:26.980 ways, right?

00:40:27.800 Republicans

00:40:28.220 would take a

00:40:28.860 Democrat off

00:40:29.440 the board

00:40:29.840 any time they

00:40:30.520 could, any

00:40:31.620 opportunity.

00:40:32.600 So I don't

00:40:33.060 think that's

00:40:33.480 going to

00:40:33.680 change.

00:40:34.360 And I think

00:40:34.940 that whatever

00:40:35.380 they were going

00:40:35.880 to do with

00:40:36.240 Trump, they

00:40:36.580 were going

00:40:36.800 to do

00:40:37.000 anyway.

00:40:37.320 So none

00:40:40.120 of this

00:40:40.380 changes that.

00:40:42.400 So don't

00:40:43.160 let them 0.55

00:40:43.740 fall for

00:40:45.320 it.

00:40:45.860 And make

00:40:46.140 sure you

00:40:46.540 keep a

00:40:47.100 distinction

00:40:47.600 between the

00:40:49.080 mockery that

00:40:50.800 you're giving

00:40:51.400 to Biden and

00:40:52.520 the actual

00:40:53.080 genuine feelings

00:40:54.180 that the TDS

00:40:55.160 people have

00:40:55.780 that he's

00:40:56.400 actually

00:40:56.740 Hiller.

00:40:58.100 That's a

00:40:58.780 mental illness.

00:41:00.440 Don't go

00:41:01.280 down the

00:41:01.640 mental illness

00:41:02.240 line.

00:41:03.260 Now I do

00:41:03.660 know, I

00:41:04.300 mean, it's

00:41:05.940 not lost on

00:41:06.620 me, that

00:41:07.380 the way

00:41:07.700 Biden talks

00:41:08.460 does sound

00:41:09.360 like angry

00:41:09.980 Hiller.

00:41:11.240 That's what

00:41:11.780 it sounds

00:41:12.160 like.

00:41:12.940 It sounds

00:41:13.600 like he's

00:41:14.000 crazy and

00:41:14.600 angry and

00:41:15.400 dangerous.

00:41:16.460 But he's

00:41:16.740 probably not.

00:41:18.700 Well, he

00:41:19.200 might be

00:41:19.520 crazy, but

00:41:20.140 he's probably

00:41:21.120 not dangerous.

00:41:23.440 Just make

00:41:24.140 sure that you

00:41:24.600 keep it on

00:41:25.100 the mocking,

00:41:26.100 funny memes,

00:41:27.340 Hitler, Satan 0.95

00:41:28.080 stuff, because

00:41:29.620 you want to

00:41:30.740 mock him out

00:41:31.320 of office.

00:41:32.220 You don't

00:41:32.620 want to give

00:41:33.100 him any

00:41:35.200 kind of

00:41:35.740 fodder.

00:41:36.660 Because the

00:41:37.180 thing they'd

00:41:37.640 like most is

00:41:39.240 for you to

00:41:39.820 start blaming

00:41:40.720 them for

00:41:41.240 being Hitler 0.95

00:41:41.700 without having

00:41:42.600 the goods.

00:41:44.460 And then

00:41:44.740 it looks

00:41:46.620 like a

00:41:46.940 tie.

00:41:50.240 Are

00:41:50.360 leaders used

00:41:50.980 to sound

00:41:51.320 that masculine

00:41:52.060 on a regular

00:41:52.820 basis?

00:41:53.660 Did they?

00:41:54.640 Not in my

00:41:55.080 lifetime.

00:42:00.140 Who wrote

00:42:00.800 his speech?

00:42:01.560 Good

00:42:01.860 question.

00:42:03.080 All right.

00:42:04.120 To me, there

00:42:04.800 was a

00:42:05.260 disconnect

00:42:05.680 between the

00:42:06.600 words in

00:42:07.040 his speech

00:42:07.540 and the

00:42:08.140 way he

00:42:08.440 delivered

00:42:08.800 it.

00:42:09.620 Did anybody

00:42:10.300 catch that?

00:42:12.340 Because if

00:42:13.160 you read

00:42:13.660 that speech,

00:42:14.420 I don't

00:42:14.760 know if

00:42:15.040 it would

00:42:15.220 sound the

00:42:15.760 way he

00:42:16.100 spoke it.

00:42:17.400 Because he

00:42:17.820 spoke it

00:42:18.380 angry crazy,

00:42:19.500 didn't he?

00:42:19.820 He spoke it

00:42:20.480 in Dementia

00:42:21.360 Joe voice.

00:42:26.000 And even

00:42:27.720 as provocative

00:42:28.840 as the words

00:42:29.680 were, it's

00:42:31.060 easy to

00:42:31.700 imagine Obama

00:42:33.420 giving that

00:42:34.000 speech,

00:42:34.620 isn't it?

00:42:35.780 You can

00:42:36.360 imagine Obama

00:42:37.280 giving the

00:42:37.780 speech in

00:42:38.900 his calm

00:42:39.520 Obama voice,

00:42:40.600 and you

00:42:41.000 would say,

00:42:41.420 oh, well,

00:42:42.400 he's just

00:42:42.760 warning us

00:42:43.280 of some

00:42:43.600 dangerous

00:42:43.940 stuff.

00:42:44.300 That's

00:42:44.500 okay.

00:42:45.440 That's

00:42:45.720 fine.

00:42:46.740 He's just

00:42:47.260 warning us.

00:42:48.220 There might

00:42:48.660 be some

00:42:48.940 bad stuff.

00:42:49.560 Don't be

00:42:49.860 like that.

00:42:50.900 Be more

00:42:51.380 American.

00:42:52.020 That sounds

00:42:52.420 fine.

00:42:53.340 If you just

00:42:54.080 read the

00:42:54.480 words in

00:42:55.540 normal voice,

00:42:56.400 even though the

00:42:57.080 words are

00:42:57.480 plenty provocative,

00:42:59.260 but if you

00:42:59.680 read them in a

00:43:00.280 normal voice,

00:43:00.900 they would

00:43:01.100 sound different.

00:43:01.560 Now, a

00:43:07.280 lot of

00:43:07.480 people are

00:43:07.800 giving me

00:43:08.320 credit this

00:43:09.020 morning for

00:43:10.060 accurately

00:43:11.220 predicting that

00:43:12.180 Republicans would

00:43:13.180 be hunted,

00:43:14.800 which the

00:43:16.560 Democrats say,

00:43:19.720 ha, ha, ha,

00:43:20.440 that's your

00:43:20.840 worst prediction

00:43:22.040 you've ever

00:43:22.580 made, and

00:43:23.620 Republicans say,

00:43:24.500 well, you

00:43:24.760 nailed it.

00:43:25.500 You're right on

00:43:26.040 there, being

00:43:26.920 hunted like

00:43:27.440 crazy.

00:43:28.600 But I don't

00:43:29.520 think I can

00:43:30.060 convince anybody

00:43:30.920 that I'm

00:43:31.400 right or

00:43:31.920 wrong on

00:43:32.240 that.

00:43:32.940 Everybody's

00:43:33.400 just going

00:43:33.700 to see the

00:43:33.980 wrong movie.

00:43:38.060 Now, whoever

00:43:39.340 wrote that

00:43:39.900 speech and

00:43:40.880 whoever staged

00:43:42.080 it, I

00:43:44.740 don't think

00:43:45.340 that they

00:43:45.720 knew it

00:43:46.220 was going

00:43:46.520 to look

00:43:46.760 like a

00:43:47.240 satanic

00:43:47.860 setting.

00:43:49.640 But the

00:43:50.360 reds and

00:43:51.040 the lights

00:43:51.440 actually did.

00:43:52.500 It was

00:43:52.960 impossible not

00:43:53.640 to think of

00:43:54.080 Satan.

00:43:55.160 Is there

00:43:55.460 anybody who

00:43:55.920 didn't think

00:43:56.320 of Satan

00:43:56.700 when they

00:43:57.040 watched that?

00:43:58.220 Is there

00:43:58.560 even one

00:43:59.080 person who

00:44:00.520 watched that

00:44:01.080 and didn't

00:44:01.560 immediately

00:44:02.240 think of

00:44:02.840 Satan?

00:44:04.860 Am I

00:44:05.440 right?

00:44:07.040 I think

00:44:07.640 everybody

00:44:08.000 thought of

00:44:08.400 Satan as

00:44:08.820 soon as

00:44:09.040 they saw

00:44:09.380 it, didn't

00:44:09.800 they?

00:44:10.140 It wasn't

00:44:10.560 just me.

00:44:12.880 Somebody

00:44:13.300 says CNN

00:44:13.900 changed the

00:44:14.780 color saturation

00:44:15.960 and made it

00:44:16.480 pink.

00:44:17.580 But I saw a

00:44:18.440 video that

00:44:18.920 claims they

00:44:19.480 were doing it

00:44:19.980 on that

00:44:20.300 video and

00:44:20.780 it didn't

00:44:21.320 look different

00:44:21.780 to me.

00:44:24.000 So you

00:44:24.620 think that it

00:44:25.120 was orchestrated

00:44:25.860 to look

00:44:26.240 like Satan?

00:44:29.220 No, it

00:44:29.660 wasn't.

00:44:32.240 I'm going

00:44:32.720 to say with

00:44:33.360 complete

00:44:34.520 confidence, it

00:44:36.760 was not

00:44:37.340 intentionally made

00:44:38.400 to look like

00:44:39.140 a satanic

00:44:40.360 set.

00:44:41.620 Not

00:44:41.920 intentionally.

00:44:43.880 I think they

00:44:44.600 just didn't

00:44:44.960 know how it

00:44:45.420 would look on

00:44:45.800 camera until

00:44:46.500 it was too

00:44:46.880 late.

00:44:47.300 Too late to

00:44:47.800 change it

00:44:48.160 probably.

00:44:53.140 All right.

00:44:53.800 To get his

00:44:54.220 base terrified?

00:44:54.880 Oh, you

00:44:55.380 think it

00:44:56.120 was to

00:44:56.500 scare his

00:44:57.320 base?

00:44:58.820 Maybe.

00:45:00.840 I think it

00:45:01.540 was supposed

00:45:01.860 to look...

00:45:03.680 Here's what

00:45:04.260 I think.

00:45:05.020 Let me

00:45:05.580 modify my

00:45:06.760 answer a

00:45:07.140 little bit.

00:45:07.720 So I said

00:45:08.120 it was totally

00:45:08.640 not intentional.

00:45:09.920 I think the

00:45:10.520 intentional part

00:45:11.640 was they were

00:45:13.060 trying to make

00:45:13.660 it dangerous

00:45:14.240 looking.

00:45:15.900 I think they

00:45:16.660 intentionally

00:45:17.120 made it

00:45:18.280 dangerous

00:45:18.680 looking.

00:45:19.400 Would you

00:45:19.720 agree?

00:45:21.000 I think they

00:45:21.860 didn't know

00:45:22.520 that it would

00:45:23.720 look actually

00:45:24.300 satanic.

00:45:24.880 I think that

00:45:26.400 was just

00:45:26.740 a mistake.

00:45:32.260 To scare

00:45:33.100 the poor

00:45:33.520 and the

00:45:33.780 ignorant?

00:45:34.220 Yeah,

00:45:34.460 maybe.

00:45:35.660 So what

00:45:38.860 do you think

00:45:39.240 of my

00:45:40.180 general thesis

00:45:40.900 that he's

00:45:41.980 made it

00:45:42.580 easy for

00:45:43.600 Trump to

00:45:44.340 win the

00:45:44.700 presidency?

00:45:45.580 All Trump

00:45:46.320 would have

00:45:46.660 to do

00:45:47.080 is act

00:45:49.720 more mainstream

00:45:50.420 and that's

00:45:52.360 it.

00:45:53.220 That's it.

00:45:53.860 Just talk

00:45:55.060 about

00:45:55.500 bipartisan

00:45:57.120 stuff and

00:45:58.040 just walk

00:45:59.740 right into

00:46:00.140 the Oval

00:46:00.520 Office.

00:46:01.480 I don't

00:46:01.760 even think

00:46:02.100 he has to

00:46:02.500 fight at

00:46:02.900 this point.

00:46:07.280 All right.

00:46:07.940 pardon the

00:46:13.620 non-violent

00:46:14.160 ones.

00:46:15.060 Yeah,

00:46:15.320 I think

00:46:15.600 that part's

00:46:16.180 simple.

00:46:19.000 It's a

00:46:19.660 blind spot

00:46:20.260 because they're

00:46:20.760 used to

00:46:21.120 attending

00:46:21.620 satanic

00:46:22.480 sacrifices.

00:46:23.460 Somebody

00:46:23.660 says,

00:46:24.760 maybe,

00:46:25.500 I don't

00:46:25.800 think so.

00:46:26.460 So,

00:46:26.560 yeah,

00:46:30.240 I think

00:46:30.560 they're

00:46:31.140 going to

00:46:31.820 regret

00:46:32.800 embracing

00:46:34.040 dark

00:46:34.460 Brandon.

00:46:35.680 Because

00:46:36.080 remember I

00:46:36.580 taught you

00:46:37.040 that when

00:46:37.580 Hillary Clinton

00:46:38.260 started saying

00:46:39.000 that Trump's

00:46:39.560 speech was

00:46:40.620 dark,

00:46:41.960 and I

00:46:42.340 called that

00:46:42.820 out as a

00:46:43.280 professional

00:46:43.700 word,

00:46:44.220 which I

00:46:44.800 think it

00:46:45.100 turned out

00:46:45.440 it was,

00:46:46.880 that the

00:46:48.440 reason you

00:46:49.320 don't name

00:46:49.900 your own

00:46:50.420 candidate

00:46:50.880 dark is

00:46:52.200 that it

00:46:52.380 has too

00:46:52.700 many negative

00:46:53.220 connotations.

00:46:54.640 Even if you

00:46:55.440 think it's

00:46:55.820 like cool

00:46:56.540 and hip, 0.99

00:46:57.980 there's just,

00:46:58.700 the word

00:46:59.160 itself carries

00:46:59.960 a little

00:47:00.260 program with

00:47:00.960 it that you

00:47:01.300 can't strip

00:47:02.360 out of the

00:47:02.720 word.

00:47:07.540 They think

00:47:08.260 the strategy

00:47:08.800 is going

00:47:09.160 to work?

00:47:11.100 I would

00:47:11.800 love to

00:47:12.260 see CNN's

00:47:13.680 coverage today.

00:47:14.980 I'm going

00:47:15.260 to make you

00:47:15.600 a prediction.

00:47:17.240 Here's my

00:47:17.700 prediction.

00:47:18.860 That at

00:47:19.280 least some

00:47:20.040 of the CNN

00:47:20.960 opinion people

00:47:21.780 will say

00:47:22.320 that he

00:47:22.700 blew it.

00:47:24.360 Anybody

00:47:24.660 want to

00:47:24.960 take the

00:47:25.260 bet?

00:47:26.540 MSNBC

00:47:27.880 will say

00:47:28.300 he nailed

00:47:28.680 it.

00:47:29.480 But I'm

00:47:29.760 going to

00:47:29.980 bet that

00:47:30.660 at least

00:47:31.100 one,

00:47:31.840 at least

00:47:32.820 one opinion

00:47:34.380 person who's

00:47:35.240 not a

00:47:35.660 Republican,

00:47:36.540 but a

00:47:36.840 Democrat,

00:47:37.760 will say

00:47:38.180 he went

00:47:38.540 too far.

00:47:42.180 Oh,

00:47:42.520 MSNBC

00:47:43.260 already says

00:47:43.820 he blew

00:47:44.100 it?

00:47:46.800 Who said

00:47:47.480 it,

00:47:47.660 though?

00:47:49.800 Has it

00:47:50.320 already

00:47:50.520 happened?

00:47:52.460 Yeah,

00:47:52.900 only the

00:47:53.280 guests?

00:47:54.500 Well,

00:47:54.820 that's

00:47:54.980 what I'm

00:47:55.180 talking

00:47:55.420 about,

00:47:55.700 you know,

00:47:55.900 the

00:47:56.020 pundits.

00:47:58.800 Now,

00:47:59.100 that's a

00:47:59.340 good question.

00:47:59.900 What will

00:48:00.720 Van

00:48:01.100 Jones say?

00:48:05.080 Have I

00:48:05.620 told you

00:48:05.920 recently how

00:48:06.440 much I

00:48:06.740 like Van

00:48:07.180 Jones?

00:48:08.820 He does

00:48:09.480 seem to be

00:48:09.940 able to

00:48:10.320 tell the

00:48:10.800 truth in

00:48:11.500 an environment

00:48:12.280 where other

00:48:12.760 people can't 0.97

00:48:13.300 figure out

00:48:13.720 how to do

00:48:14.120 it.

00:48:15.480 Smirconish is 0.95

00:48:16.300 top shelf

00:48:17.860 as well.

00:48:19.260 Yeah,

00:48:19.520 Smirconish is 0.95

00:48:20.340 solid.

00:48:24.060 All right.

00:48:28.520 What

00:48:28.960 truth?

00:48:30.040 Well,

00:48:30.440 you know,

00:48:30.680 Van

00:48:30.880 Johnson called

00:48:31.460 the,

00:48:32.660 what do

00:48:34.280 you call

00:48:34.560 the Russian

00:48:35.460 collusion a

00:48:36.100 nothing burger?

00:48:36.960 Was that the

00:48:37.400 one he called

00:48:37.800 a nothing burger?

00:48:43.300 All right.

00:48:45.120 So there's not

00:48:45.780 much else to

00:48:46.240 say.

00:48:46.520 So that's

00:48:49.760 my advice to

00:48:50.440 you.

00:48:51.580 Don't allow

00:48:52.280 yourself to

00:48:52.800 get too

00:48:53.260 worked up

00:48:53.800 because that's

00:48:54.500 the plan.

00:48:55.600 Make sure

00:48:56.040 that you

00:48:56.420 mock

00:48:56.940 Dark 0.57

00:48:57.460 Brandon and

00:48:58.340 his

00:48:58.700 Hitlerian 0.91

00:48:59.620 stuff,

00:49:00.820 but make

00:49:01.100 sure that

00:49:01.600 you're having

00:49:02.500 fun with

00:49:02.980 it.

00:49:03.540 Because we

00:49:04.740 don't think

00:49:05.240 he's necessarily

00:49:06.060 in control,

00:49:07.100 do we?

00:49:08.140 And to me,

00:49:08.780 it looks like

00:49:09.240 he blew

00:49:09.840 the plan.

00:49:10.660 Whatever the

00:49:11.360 communication

00:49:11.840 plan was,

00:49:12.760 I think he

00:49:13.140 blew it.

00:49:14.340 And so I

00:49:14.900 think you're

00:49:15.280 better off

00:49:15.840 than before.

00:49:17.240 So if what

00:49:18.220 you wanted

00:49:18.660 was a

00:49:19.080 Republican to

00:49:19.740 win the

00:49:20.040 presidency,

00:49:21.520 I think you

00:49:22.500 got closer

00:49:23.040 to it.

00:49:23.880 I don't

00:49:24.160 think you

00:49:24.460 got further

00:49:24.900 away from

00:49:25.320 it.

00:49:25.880 So you

00:49:26.260 should say

00:49:26.580 today was

00:49:27.020 probably a

00:49:27.400 good day

00:49:27.740 for you if

00:49:28.120 you're

00:49:28.300 a Republican.

00:49:30.000 It just

00:49:30.620 doesn't look

00:49:31.060 that way

00:49:31.400 right away.

00:49:35.800 All right.

00:49:39.660 Ridicule is

00:49:40.140 your favorite

00:49:40.540 weapon?

00:49:41.020 It should

00:49:41.300 be.

00:49:41.900 Is there

00:49:42.180 any topic

00:49:42.620 I left

00:49:42.980 down today?

00:49:47.080 Anything

00:49:47.520 else you

00:49:48.020 wanted me

00:49:48.360 to talk

00:49:48.700 about?

00:49:49.940 Now that

00:49:50.500 artificial

00:49:50.980 intelligence

00:49:51.700 is sentient,

00:49:52.920 it doesn't

00:49:53.260 matter any

00:49:53.820 of the

00:49:54.020 stuff, I

00:49:54.380 don't think.

00:49:57.980 All right.

00:49:59.240 Best episode

00:50:00.060 ever.

00:50:00.480 I'm sure

00:50:00.860 that's true.

00:50:02.300 And I think

00:50:02.920 that's all we

00:50:03.400 need to talk

00:50:03.820 about today.

00:50:04.940 Oh, the

00:50:05.260 electricity in

00:50:06.020 California.

00:50:06.500 Let's talk

00:50:07.000 about that.

00:50:07.400 So we're

00:50:08.520 in a little

00:50:08.920 heat bomb

00:50:11.000 at the

00:50:11.300 moment.

00:50:14.440 I believe

00:50:15.380 there was

00:50:15.860 some power

00:50:16.540 company in

00:50:17.180 another state

00:50:17.840 where the

00:50:18.220 power company

00:50:18.740 actually took

00:50:19.360 over the

00:50:19.900 thermostats of

00:50:21.200 their customers

00:50:21.740 for a while.

00:50:23.220 And that's

00:50:23.800 some scary

00:50:24.240 stuff.

00:50:25.880 It was

00:50:26.080 in Denver.

00:50:26.640 Yeah, it was

00:50:26.860 Colorado.

00:50:28.200 And is the

00:50:30.880 baby yours?

00:50:31.600 No.

00:50:33.960 Nope.

00:50:34.960 As far as I

00:50:35.880 know, I

00:50:37.500 mean, as

00:50:39.420 far as I

00:50:39.840 know, it's

00:50:40.160 not mine.

00:50:44.360 Pleasanton

00:50:44.880 had an

00:50:45.140 outage by

00:50:45.600 a crow?

00:50:46.700 I don't

00:50:47.260 know about

00:50:47.580 that.

00:50:53.180 You know

00:50:53.780 what else

00:50:54.620 Trump could

00:50:55.740 do that

00:50:56.360 would be

00:50:58.080 a great

00:50:58.520 unity speech?

00:51:00.140 Do a

00:51:00.800 unity speech

00:51:01.600 and describe

00:51:02.340 all 15

00:51:03.080 hoaxes that

00:51:03.900 the Democrats

00:51:04.500 have played.

00:51:05.880 Just read

00:51:06.620 them off.

00:51:07.660 He doesn't

00:51:07.980 even have to

00:51:08.340 spend much

00:51:08.760 time with

00:51:09.200 them.

00:51:09.660 Just read

00:51:10.200 that there's

00:51:10.640 15 hoaxes

00:51:11.640 because the

00:51:13.220 news would

00:51:14.600 have to

00:51:14.940 cover them.

00:51:16.460 And then

00:51:16.700 they'd have

00:51:17.060 to write

00:51:17.420 these tortured

00:51:18.680 articles where

00:51:20.680 they say,

00:51:21.140 no, no,

00:51:22.520 he really

00:51:23.220 meant the

00:51:23.660 Nazis were

00:51:24.240 good people

00:51:24.860 in Charlottesville,

00:51:26.140 which is

00:51:27.100 ridiculous.

00:51:27.520 Yeah, the

00:51:31.680 top 15

00:51:32.440 hoaxes,

00:51:33.300 he should

00:51:33.680 just put

00:51:34.180 them out

00:51:34.460 there and

00:51:34.880 let the

00:51:35.400 other team

00:51:35.760 know that

00:51:36.120 they're

00:51:36.280 there.

00:51:40.580 Oh, there's

00:51:41.160 a Trump

00:51:41.520 rally

00:51:41.880 tomorrow.

00:51:48.300 Most

00:51:48.700 Democrats

00:51:49.180 believe all

00:51:49.840 of them.

00:51:50.480 They do,

00:51:51.200 but it

00:51:51.560 would require

00:51:52.100 the news

00:51:52.660 to deal

00:51:53.140 with them

00:51:53.500 and publish

00:51:54.120 them.

00:51:54.380 So that's

00:51:56.040 where you

00:51:56.300 get the

00:51:56.560 win.

00:51:59.100 Can you

00:51:59.720 reframe

00:52:00.400 going through

00:52:00.980 a bankruptcy?

00:52:02.200 Well, a

00:52:02.500 bankruptcy is

00:52:03.820 not not

00:52:06.000 paying your

00:52:06.460 bills.

00:52:07.220 It's just

00:52:07.840 giving you

00:52:08.280 time to

00:52:08.720 reorganize.

00:52:10.800 And given

00:52:12.000 that we came

00:52:12.480 off a

00:52:12.800 pandemic,

00:52:13.740 bankruptcy

00:52:14.120 isn't what

00:52:14.860 it used to

00:52:15.280 be.

00:52:16.220 So bankruptcy

00:52:16.800 doesn't mean

00:52:17.540 you failed.

00:52:18.420 It just means

00:52:19.000 there was a

00:52:19.360 pandemic.

00:52:20.460 And even

00:52:20.900 if the reason

00:52:21.580 you're bankrupt

00:52:22.160 is because

00:52:22.620 it's something

00:52:22.980 you did,

00:52:23.640 not the

00:52:23.980 pandemic,

00:52:24.380 or something

00:52:26.080 you didn't

00:52:26.440 do,

00:52:27.380 it's still

00:52:28.520 going to

00:52:28.740 look to

00:52:29.000 other people

00:52:29.520 like it

00:52:29.860 was the

00:52:30.140 pandemic

00:52:30.540 because of

00:52:31.320 the timing.

00:52:32.420 So I

00:52:33.020 don't think

00:52:33.380 you have to

00:52:33.660 worry about

00:52:34.100 the reputation.

00:52:37.160 You don't

00:52:37.740 have to worry

00:52:38.240 about whether

00:52:38.900 you failed

00:52:39.680 because there

00:52:40.520 are just

00:52:40.740 too many

00:52:41.180 external

00:52:41.820 variables going

00:52:42.620 on right

00:52:42.960 now.

00:52:44.040 And it's

00:52:44.780 just something

00:52:45.080 you have to

00:52:45.360 work through.

00:52:45.800 There are

00:52:46.000 plenty of

00:52:46.520 bankrupt

00:52:46.840 people who

00:52:47.360 did fine.

00:52:48.580 Plenty

00:52:49.060 of them.

00:52:50.780 You know,

00:52:51.260 bankruptcy

00:52:51.920 exists for

00:52:53.120 your benefit.

00:52:53.620 It's not

00:52:54.900 your penalty.

00:52:55.900 It's for

00:52:56.340 your benefit

00:52:56.860 so that you

00:52:57.640 don't go

00:52:58.280 completely broke

00:52:59.240 immediately paying

00:53:00.080 off creditors.

00:53:01.420 So bankruptcy

00:53:01.900 is the thing

00:53:02.560 that's saving

00:53:03.060 you, not the

00:53:03.680 thing that's

00:53:04.080 ending you.

00:53:05.080 At least

00:53:05.600 that's how

00:53:05.980 it's on

00:53:06.680 paper.

00:53:07.680 It should

00:53:08.120 work.

00:53:11.320 All right.

00:53:11.900 they would

00:53:17.520 just say

00:53:17.860 Trump lied

00:53:18.480 about a list

00:53:18.960 of fake

00:53:19.340 hoaxes.

00:53:19.920 They would

00:53:20.160 say that

00:53:20.620 but it would

00:53:21.060 still make

00:53:21.420 them look

00:53:21.700 at them

00:53:21.880 all.

00:53:25.760 How do

00:53:26.240 you reframe

00:53:26.840 a crazy

00:53:27.520 wife?

00:53:29.640 Well,

00:53:30.800 no comment.

00:53:33.920 All right.

00:53:35.540 That's all

00:53:36.100 for now and

00:53:36.680 I will talk

00:53:37.240 to you.

00:53:38.580 Yeah,

00:53:38.960 divorce.

00:53:40.640 All right.

00:53:41.020 I'll talk

00:53:41.380 to you

00:53:41.640 tomorrow.

00:53:43.520 Maybe later

00:53:44.300 today.

00:53:44.680 See you later.
