00:00:00.000 Do, do, do.
00:00:02.320 Good morning, everybody, and welcome
00:00:04.320 to the highlight of civilization that's called
00:00:07.760 Coffee with Scott Adams, and boy, did you pick a good time
00:00:11.200 to be here today.
00:00:12.800 Talk about some juicy news.
00:00:15.480 We got some juicy news for you, but stay around for that,
00:00:18.920 and if you'd like to prepare, and I do recommend you be prepared.
00:00:23.160 All you need is a cup, or a mug, or a glass,
00:00:27.640 or a tankard chalice or stein, a canteen joke or flask,
00:00:33.000 a vessel of any kind, fill it with your favorite liquid.
00:00:35.780 I like coffee.
00:00:37.320 And join us now for the unparalleled pleasure
00:00:39.540 that don't be here today, the thing that makes
00:00:41.660 everything better.
00:00:43.280 It's called simultaneous sip.
00:00:46.480 And make sure you say ah afterwards.
00:00:48.740 Go.
00:00:52.500 Ah.
00:00:53.880 Ah, delightful.
00:00:54.600 Well, I don't know if you heard, but there was some news
00:01:01.380 last night.
00:01:03.520 Ex-President Trump on CNN, we'll talk about that in a moment,
00:01:06.780 but first, some other palate cleansers before we get to that.
00:01:14.160 First headline is science is bullshit.
00:01:17.140 Do you need any details on that?
00:01:19.960 Just science is bullshit?
00:01:22.160 Are you good?
00:01:22.680 That's all you really need on that one, isn't it?
00:01:25.320 Well, there's a new study that says a third of scientific papers
00:01:28.040 may be fraudulent.
00:01:29.660 A third.
00:01:30.860 Now, we've heard that half of published papers
00:01:33.680 are not reproducible, which means bullshit.
00:01:37.320 But apparently a third of the scientific papers,
00:01:40.460 they've got some software that can look for similarities
00:01:44.060 in plagiarism.
00:01:45.120 And a third of them are just copy-paste,
00:01:48.400 stolen from other science studies.
00:01:51.680 A third of scientists are just criminals
00:01:53.820 because they have to publish or perish.
00:01:56.820 So they're just like pulling bits from other people's published work
00:01:59.580 and put it together in hope nobody knows.
00:02:02.260 And apparently it works
00:02:03.260 because a third of the papers are just copied.
00:02:07.760 So if you wanted something that would further lower your confidence
00:02:13.500 in the expert class,
00:02:15.840 well, there you have it.
00:02:19.460 Let me ask you this.
00:02:20.700 Do you remember that reparations were big news for a while?
00:02:27.260 Seems like it was in the headlines every other day or so.
00:02:31.460 And the committee did a bunch of studying,
00:02:35.300 came up with some recommendations,
00:02:37.100 and they changed their recommendations a few times,
00:02:39.740 but it was all news.
00:02:41.500 News, news, news.
00:02:43.200 About these reparations.
00:02:45.600 And then Governor Newsom came out and said,
00:02:48.240 uh, I'm going to ignore all these recommendations
00:02:52.200 because it turns out the reparations are about more than cash.
00:02:58.000 Oh, no.
00:02:59.180 It turns out the reparations are really,
00:03:01.780 if you think about it,
00:03:03.260 not the cash payments you thought you were getting,
00:03:05.880 not the cash payments we asked you to study,
00:03:08.660 and not the cash payments that we asked you
00:03:10.520 to come up with a framework for how we would do it.
00:03:13.120 No, no.
00:03:14.300 It's really all the stuff we were doing anyway
00:03:16.440 is the reparations.
00:03:18.240 And we're doing a great job
00:03:19.520 on the stuff we were doing anyway.
00:03:24.440 And now it's out of the news.
00:03:26.720 And now it's gone.
00:03:30.060 Now, it might be just because there's bigger news or something.
00:03:33.120 You know, maybe it'll come back.
00:03:34.600 But isn't it funny
00:03:35.640 that the fake news industry
00:03:38.220 can get you all riled up about this story,
00:03:40.980 and as soon as it turns completely embarrassing,
00:03:44.440 the narrative just, you can't even tell it anymore.
00:03:47.640 It's a story you can't even put in the news.
00:03:50.120 It's just too embarrassing
00:03:52.020 because people like me were calling this from the beginning,
00:03:56.540 oh, this is just a white person trick.
00:03:59.400 You're going to form a committee,
00:04:01.260 study it for a bunch,
00:04:02.460 and then say, oh, I can't do that.
00:04:05.080 It was obvious from the beginning
00:04:06.740 this was just a play.
00:04:09.260 And then the play comes through.
00:04:11.120 It goes just exactly the way I told you it would,
00:04:14.200 that it gets ignored because it's ridiculous.
00:04:17.240 And that was the genius of the move,
00:04:19.680 is it outed the reparations idea as ridiculous
00:04:22.460 without anybody telling them it was ridiculous.
00:04:25.840 They just had to go through the work
00:04:27.240 of figuring it out and presenting it,
00:04:29.540 and then we could all just look at it and go,
00:04:31.840 oh, well, that's not going to happen.
00:04:36.060 And then you can move on.
00:04:37.340 So apparently we're forgetting
00:04:38.820 all about that reparation stuff.
00:04:40.420 That's over.
00:04:41.600 It'll come back, but for now it's gone.
00:04:46.080 What do these four politicians have in common
00:04:48.740 besides being Democrats?
00:04:51.020 President Biden,
00:04:53.200 VP Harris,
00:04:55.040 Senator Feinstein,
00:04:58.300 and Senator Fetterman.
00:05:01.300 Can you think of anything
00:05:02.520 that those four leaders...
00:05:05.260 Yes, yes, no functional brain.
00:05:08.520 Right.
00:05:09.620 Now, am I just being biased here?
00:05:13.780 Let me ask you a question.
00:05:15.220 I feel like I'm just being biased,
00:05:17.820 but you can help me get out of my bias.
00:05:20.120 Could you name the four Republican
00:05:22.040 top politicians
00:05:24.440 who don't have functioning brains?
00:05:26.320 Go.
00:05:28.120 Four Republicans
00:05:29.160 who don't have brains that work?
00:05:36.560 No, Romney doesn't count.
00:05:39.320 He's just not doing stuff you like.
00:05:41.200 No, McConnell's brain is working fine.
00:05:43.260 Santos.
00:05:44.260 Santos.
00:05:44.980 He's an interesting character,
00:05:46.820 but he's not mentally disabled.
00:05:53.940 Crenshaw.
00:05:55.700 Don't throw Crenshaw in there.
00:05:59.520 No, you're just throwing in all the names of people
00:06:01.640 you don't like today.
00:06:02.520 All right, well,
00:06:06.440 how do we ignore the fact
00:06:09.340 that the leader of the country
00:06:11.360 is obviously mentally incompetent,
00:06:14.600 at least in terms of doing a full-day work?
00:06:16.540 And then the backup plan,
00:06:19.880 the backup plan for the President of the United States
00:06:23.420 is someone who's obviously a public drunk.
00:06:27.060 A public drunk.
00:06:28.680 Can't even keep the drinking behind closed doors.
00:06:32.360 But Kamala Harris,
00:06:33.260 when she appears in public,
00:06:35.720 let's stop pretending, can we?
00:06:38.220 Let's stop pretending any that's normal.
00:06:41.220 No, she's drunk in public
00:06:42.960 when she's doing her job.
00:06:44.460 There's nobody who can be drunk in public
00:06:46.800 doing their job without getting fired.
00:06:49.720 Name one person in the real corporate world
00:06:52.520 who could appear multiple times drunk in public.
00:06:55.700 Obviously drunk.
00:06:56.980 Obviously drunk.
00:06:58.980 And there's no repercussions.
00:07:01.180 It's not even a news item.
00:07:03.820 Don't you think you should at least be discussed
00:07:05.920 at the highest levels of importance?
00:07:09.060 What exactly is more important
00:07:10.460 than having a leader of your country
00:07:12.220 whose brain actually functions?
00:07:15.680 Seems important.
00:07:17.800 But we've actually been,
00:07:19.100 we've been gaslighted as a public.
00:07:22.760 We've been gaslighted to the point
00:07:24.660 where four major political entities
00:07:28.380 in the United States,
00:07:29.520 President, Vice President,
00:07:30.660 two major senators,
00:07:32.480 and we don't care if their brains are working.
00:07:35.280 And we've been talked into that being normal.
00:07:40.840 Somehow that just seemed okay.
00:07:43.560 We'll just go on with our day.
00:07:45.460 Leaders don't have brains.
00:07:46.660 No problem.
00:07:48.800 Well,
00:07:49.540 anyway,
00:07:52.900 I just thought that was worth noting.
00:07:57.240 But the funny thing is,
00:07:58.520 no matter how many times I say it,
00:08:00.700 it won't make any difference.
00:08:02.740 Tomorrow nobody's going to care
00:08:05.200 that the person one heartbeat away
00:08:07.880 from the presidency
00:08:08.900 is a public drunk.
00:08:11.180 And obviously so.
00:08:13.100 We're not even dealing with that.
00:08:15.080 We're just,
00:08:15.400 we're just to say that doesn't exist.
00:08:17.520 No, no, no.
00:08:18.520 It doesn't exist.
00:08:20.280 All right.
00:08:20.640 It's not like we haven't had
00:08:21.660 drunk politicians before,
00:08:23.200 but I feel like
00:08:25.500 we ought to do something about it.
00:08:27.580 So,
00:08:31.420 Title 42 ends.
00:08:36.040 By the way,
00:08:36.540 Trump could do a lot with that,
00:08:38.080 the fact that Democrats
00:08:38.940 don't have functioning brains.
00:08:41.740 Imagine what Trump could do with that,
00:08:43.720 just naming those four people
00:08:45.160 and saying,
00:08:46.540 are they even trying anymore?
00:08:49.680 They're not even trying.
00:08:50.940 All right.
00:08:53.400 Title 42 ends today.
00:08:54.860 That was the thing that
00:08:55.680 allowed the border control people
00:08:58.040 to,
00:08:58.600 I don't know,
00:08:59.980 keep some people south of the border
00:09:01.540 because of COVID restrictions
00:09:03.480 or something.
00:09:04.620 But anyway,
00:09:05.360 that's ending,
00:09:06.160 and then all the smart people
00:09:07.300 say there'll be a giant wave
00:09:08.700 of immigrants.
00:09:09.840 Looks like that's going to happen.
00:09:11.060 But the news that I saw,
00:09:16.400 I think this was Washington,
00:09:18.260 no,
00:09:18.500 in the Wall Street Journal,
00:09:21.580 that we don't know
00:09:24.380 how different it's going to be,
00:09:25.600 actually.
00:09:27.800 That it's a little more complicated
00:09:29.540 than that.
00:09:30.280 So it seems that the Biden
00:09:31.580 administration approach
00:09:34.660 is simply to reduce
00:09:37.620 the illegal part
00:09:38.920 by doing as much as you can
00:09:41.580 to funnel them
00:09:42.340 towards legal ports of entry
00:09:44.080 where they can lie
00:09:46.120 about their status
00:09:47.080 and say they're all,
00:09:47.940 they're all escaping
00:09:49.640 from bad situations
00:09:50.780 and they're not here
00:09:51.320 to get jobs.
00:09:52.620 So make it easy for them
00:09:54.420 to lie about why they're here.
00:09:56.380 Some of them are here
00:09:57.160 for the real reason,
00:09:58.060 of course.
00:09:58.980 But most of them
00:09:59.920 would have to lie.
00:10:01.340 And so we'll build an app
00:10:02.360 that they can lie
00:10:03.320 and find out where to,
00:10:04.920 where to tell their lie
00:10:06.340 so all the process is legal
00:10:08.480 and fine.
00:10:10.920 Does that feel like,
00:10:13.100 yeah,
00:10:13.720 Trump didn't mention Fentil,
00:10:14.980 you're right.
00:10:17.780 Does it feel like
00:10:18.960 that's not even trying?
00:10:21.640 Yeah,
00:10:22.080 we're doing all these things,
00:10:23.520 but all of them
00:10:24.040 have the collective action
00:10:25.980 of, you know,
00:10:27.480 whether you have to use the app.
00:10:28.780 I guess there's about an app
00:10:29.920 for the immigrants.
00:10:32.380 But they all have
00:10:33.120 the same character.
00:10:34.460 They're just trying to turn
00:10:35.520 a thing that's illegal.
00:10:37.240 They're trying to
00:10:38.320 legal wash it.
00:10:39.500 Is there a name for that?
00:10:41.040 Where you take something
00:10:41.920 that's illegal
00:10:42.620 and everybody doesn't
00:10:43.760 like the illegal part
00:10:44.780 and you just redefine it
00:10:46.420 as legal
00:10:46.960 to make the problem go away.
00:10:49.820 Because if the people
00:10:50.780 come in and do,
00:10:51.680 use the app
00:10:52.240 and use the appropriate
00:10:53.900 entryways
00:10:54.660 and they lie to,
00:10:55.540 lie to the border patrol
00:10:57.220 and say,
00:10:57.520 oh yeah,
00:10:57.800 we're here because
00:10:58.420 of all the danger,
00:10:59.240 not because of the jobs,
00:11:00.920 because of all the danger,
00:11:02.420 then they get in
00:11:03.780 and it's legal,
00:11:04.400 completely legal.
00:11:05.900 So we actually
00:11:07.020 legalized lying.
00:11:10.060 Effectively.
00:11:11.020 Didn't we?
00:11:11.960 Didn't we turn
00:11:12.780 every immigrant
00:11:13.480 that we let in
00:11:14.260 into a liar?
00:11:15.780 Not everyone.
00:11:16.600 Some of them
00:11:16.980 actually have a real case.
00:11:18.960 Yeah.
00:11:19.440 We forced them,
00:11:20.940 here's your first day
00:11:22.180 in the American sphere.
00:11:25.840 Day one.
00:11:27.000 Here's an app
00:11:27.780 and we're going to
00:11:28.420 require you to lie
00:11:29.500 on the app.
00:11:30.840 What?
00:11:32.040 Yeah, yeah,
00:11:32.760 to get into the country.
00:11:33.640 That's it?
00:11:36.600 Yeah, but we require it.
00:11:39.080 There's no getting
00:11:39.880 around this.
00:11:40.800 You have to lie to us.
00:11:42.700 But you know we're lying.
00:11:44.720 Well, not every one of you.
00:11:47.000 Some of you
00:11:47.600 might not be lying.
00:11:49.560 But you know
00:11:50.060 most of us are lying, right?
00:11:52.660 Well, can't read your minds.
00:11:55.060 We don't know.
00:11:56.520 Maybe.
00:11:58.640 So that's a pretty weird
00:11:59.860 system we've got going there.
00:12:01.100 We'll see how that works out.
00:12:02.020 I have a suggestion
00:12:05.340 for replacing
00:12:06.300 Title 42.
00:12:07.780 We'll talk about Trump
00:12:08.940 after I'm done with this.
00:12:12.360 I had an experience
00:12:13.540 yesterday
00:12:14.080 in which I was trying
00:12:15.180 to cancel my
00:12:16.360 Xfinity
00:12:17.200 TV service
00:12:19.040 but keep their
00:12:20.200 internet
00:12:20.540 and keep the phone service.
00:12:22.640 I wanted those.
00:12:23.180 And I'm thinking that
00:12:25.920 if we really want to
00:12:27.160 thwart the people
00:12:28.420 at the border
00:12:29.000 instead of making them
00:12:31.920 find an app
00:12:32.940 and somehow get
00:12:33.600 a smartphone
00:12:34.240 and sign up on the app
00:12:36.360 and work through
00:12:37.380 the language issues
00:12:38.420 if there are any
00:12:39.180 instead of doing that
00:12:40.820 which I agree
00:12:42.520 is a good first step
00:12:43.540 to thwart the immigrants
00:12:44.840 make them have
00:12:46.340 a lot of paperwork
00:12:47.180 because apparently
00:12:48.580 Biden is willing
00:12:49.460 to ship you back
00:12:50.560 if you came here
00:12:52.500 without lying
00:12:53.340 in your own country
00:12:54.180 first.
00:12:55.540 So apparently
00:12:55.980 you're supposed to go
00:12:56.900 if you're
00:12:57.440 let's say
00:12:57.920 from Venezuela
00:12:59.120 or something
00:13:00.160 you're supposed to go
00:13:01.340 to some place
00:13:02.000 in your own country
00:13:02.860 and you do your lying
00:13:04.480 there locally
00:13:05.220 and then you can
00:13:06.520 legally come into
00:13:07.200 the country.
00:13:08.380 But if you
00:13:09.420 leave your country
00:13:10.520 and come here
00:13:11.220 and do the lying
00:13:12.180 when you're on our soil
00:13:13.260 totally illegal
00:13:15.040 and Biden will ship you back
00:13:17.060 makes total sense right
00:13:19.020 that where you lied
00:13:21.240 makes the difference
00:13:22.260 and the Biden administration
00:13:24.060 is going to ship
00:13:24.780 your ass back
00:13:25.520 if you didn't catch
00:13:26.780 the paperwork
00:13:27.500 detail there.
00:13:29.740 So if we're willing
00:13:31.020 to deport people
00:13:32.040 for bad paperwork
00:13:33.040 which is all this is
00:13:34.680 because literally
00:13:35.720 they're saying
00:13:36.200 the same thing
00:13:36.900 it's just they have to
00:13:37.680 say it in a different place
00:13:38.720 with different paperwork
00:13:39.620 that's all.
00:13:41.460 But if we can
00:13:42.040 thwart them
00:13:42.740 with paperwork
00:13:43.380 I think that
00:13:45.420 they should hire
00:13:46.020 Xfinity
00:13:46.660 to use the same people
00:13:48.980 who thwart you
00:13:50.200 from cancelling
00:13:50.920 your TV service.
00:13:52.300 Let me tell you
00:13:53.100 what Xfinity did
00:13:54.360 to prevent me
00:13:55.880 from cancelling
00:13:56.540 my service.
00:13:57.920 See if this sounds
00:13:58.860 familiar
00:13:59.320 to every online service
00:14:01.360 you've ever tried
00:14:02.120 to cancel.
00:14:03.940 And I start
00:14:05.220 writing down
00:14:05.760 the tricks
00:14:06.280 because
00:14:07.800 let me ask you this
00:14:09.080 do you remember
00:14:09.780 the first time
00:14:10.560 you ever tried
00:14:11.240 to buy a car
00:14:12.020 as an adult?
00:14:14.320 And you remember
00:14:15.380 that the salesperson
00:14:17.100 had to go talk
00:14:17.860 to the manager
00:14:18.520 and they'd be gone
00:14:20.700 for like an hour
00:14:21.440 and then they'd
00:14:23.100 just do it again.
00:14:24.300 Oh I've got to talk
00:14:24.960 to the manager again
00:14:25.680 I'll be gone
00:14:26.100 for another hour.
00:14:27.160 And the first time
00:14:28.120 that happened
00:14:28.520 you said to yourself
00:14:29.360 well that's a
00:14:30.980 weird little process
00:14:33.040 but it's probably
00:14:34.280 only something
00:14:34.880 that happens
00:14:35.340 at this car dealership.
00:14:37.840 And you put up
00:14:38.480 with it
00:14:38.780 and you get your car
00:14:39.460 because you really
00:14:39.920 want a car.
00:14:41.040 Then someday
00:14:41.700 you talk to a friend
00:14:43.120 or you go back
00:14:43.920 again to buy
00:14:44.380 another car someday
00:14:45.220 and it's the same thing.
00:14:47.540 Isn't that weird?
00:14:48.740 They always have
00:14:49.360 to talk to the manager.
00:14:50.820 Huh.
00:14:51.800 And then finally
00:14:52.480 you figure out
00:14:53.100 that the talking
00:14:53.760 to the manager part
00:14:54.840 is all part
00:14:56.040 of the wearing
00:14:56.520 you down process.
00:14:58.200 They're trying
00:14:58.800 to wear you down.
00:15:00.020 They're trying
00:15:00.300 to exhaust you
00:15:01.140 so you'll make
00:15:02.180 decisions that are
00:15:02.920 good for them
00:15:03.380 and bad for you.
00:15:04.740 Well Xfinity
00:15:05.380 and other online services
00:15:06.920 do the same thing.
00:15:07.800 And there's no question
00:15:09.580 that this is intentional.
00:15:11.800 But let me tell you
00:15:12.720 how clever it is.
00:15:13.880 Alright.
00:15:14.460 So first
00:15:14.980 if you want to
00:15:15.480 cancel Xfinity
00:15:16.260 you say to yourself
00:15:17.600 will I call them
00:15:18.880 or try to do it online?
00:15:21.460 What do you think
00:15:22.400 about when you think
00:15:23.260 about calling them?
00:15:25.140 What happens
00:15:25.680 to your brain
00:15:26.380 and your body?
00:15:28.620 Oh.
00:15:30.120 Hopeless.
00:15:30.860 Right.
00:15:31.400 You know it's hopeless
00:15:32.280 because all of the
00:15:33.840 companies have made
00:15:34.620 it hopeless
00:15:35.040 to call them
00:15:35.760 because they want
00:15:36.640 you to use online.
00:15:37.800 So the first thing
00:15:38.720 I say is
00:15:39.160 well I could call
00:15:40.600 but I don't want
00:15:42.220 to be on the phone
00:15:42.880 all day
00:15:43.480 and still not
00:15:44.460 get it done
00:15:45.140 because the risk
00:15:47.000 is you spend hours
00:15:47.900 and it still
00:15:48.480 doesn't get done
00:15:49.200 because you can't
00:15:50.140 penetrate their
00:15:50.780 calling problem.
00:15:52.280 So I go
00:15:53.000 alright
00:15:53.360 I'm going to
00:15:54.400 use their app
00:15:55.040 and then I find
00:15:56.860 out that the
00:15:57.700 browser
00:15:58.560 refers you
00:16:00.060 to their app.
00:16:01.580 I'm like
00:16:01.820 alright, alright.
00:16:03.300 But they have
00:16:03.680 more than one app
00:16:04.540 and they're phasing
00:16:05.920 out an app
00:16:06.580 and they've got
00:16:07.080 a new app.
00:16:08.740 So is it
00:16:09.460 the streaming app
00:16:10.480 the other app
00:16:11.140 the My Account app
00:16:12.280 the one that's
00:16:12.940 being phased out
00:16:13.660 or is it a new one
00:16:14.500 or do I use the browser?
00:16:16.440 But the browser
00:16:17.100 tells me to go to the app
00:16:18.220 but I finally get
00:16:18.920 the right app
00:16:19.600 and when I dig down
00:16:20.860 into the app
00:16:21.440 the app says
00:16:22.300 yeah if you want to
00:16:22.980 cancel you're going
00:16:23.480 to have to go
00:16:23.740 to the browser.
00:16:25.420 So this is common.
00:16:27.420 The first time
00:16:28.260 I saw this
00:16:28.880 I thought it was
00:16:29.780 just an accident
00:16:30.920 but you'll find
00:16:32.300 that most of your
00:16:33.120 online places
00:16:33.940 when you want to
00:16:34.520 cancel
00:16:34.800 the browser
00:16:35.800 will refer you
00:16:36.680 to the app
00:16:37.200 and the app
00:16:37.600 will refer you
00:16:38.280 to the browser.
00:16:39.960 I didn't believe it
00:16:41.020 until I saw it
00:16:41.540 three times in a row.
00:16:42.700 Three different companies.
00:16:44.360 And there will be
00:16:44.860 multiple apps
00:16:45.620 and browsers.
00:16:47.460 Try doing anything
00:16:48.340 with Kaiser.
00:16:50.740 Three apps
00:16:51.580 a browser or two
00:16:53.360 there's a business
00:16:54.200 there's a personal
00:16:55.020 it's impossible.
00:16:57.120 Alright.
00:16:57.180 But I decided
00:16:59.300 I was going to
00:16:59.820 treat it as
00:17:00.500 a competition
00:17:01.320 and not a task.
00:17:03.660 If I thought
00:17:04.720 that canceling
00:17:05.320 the service
00:17:05.780 was a chore
00:17:06.620 or a task
00:17:08.340 I would hate
00:17:09.540 every part of it.
00:17:10.700 So here's a little
00:17:11.300 reframing tip.
00:17:12.400 You ready for this?
00:17:13.820 I reframed it
00:17:14.720 as a competition
00:17:15.940 in which I was
00:17:17.800 going to take
00:17:18.160 as long as it took
00:17:19.220 and I was going
00:17:20.400 to beat them.
00:17:21.560 I didn't care
00:17:22.440 what it was
00:17:23.380 going to take.
00:17:24.700 I had an audience
00:17:26.440 you know
00:17:27.060 because there was
00:17:27.460 a guy working
00:17:28.060 on my AV
00:17:28.840 at the time.
00:17:29.920 I had an audience
00:17:31.240 I had work to do
00:17:32.900 while I was waiting
00:17:33.680 for the you know
00:17:34.440 all the various
00:17:34.960 things I'd have
00:17:35.520 to wait for
00:17:36.040 and I just settled in
00:17:37.740 and I said
00:17:38.700 motherfuckers
00:17:39.520 you're not going
00:17:40.500 to beat me.
00:17:41.400 But boy did they try.
00:17:43.040 Wow did they try.
00:17:44.620 Let me tell you
00:17:45.100 what other tricks
00:17:45.980 they've got.
00:17:48.120 The first one was
00:17:49.280 that when you sign
00:17:50.180 in to the website
00:17:51.580 after you're signed
00:17:53.480 in
00:17:53.800 it redirects you
00:17:55.540 to a sign in page.
00:17:57.420 How many times
00:17:58.280 have you seen that?
00:17:59.660 Just a coincidence
00:18:00.460 right?
00:18:01.540 Every time I go
00:18:02.520 to sign in
00:18:03.060 someplace to cancel
00:18:04.140 the sign in
00:18:05.520 takes me to
00:18:07.000 another page
00:18:07.560 to sign in.
00:18:09.500 Now do you think
00:18:10.580 that that was
00:18:11.180 the second place
00:18:12.560 I signed in
00:18:13.300 do you think
00:18:14.180 that that was
00:18:14.620 the right place?
00:18:15.440 No.
00:18:15.780 That's the one
00:18:16.260 that sent me
00:18:16.700 to the app
00:18:17.180 and the app
00:18:17.900 sent me back
00:18:18.420 to the browser.
00:18:19.740 And it turns out
00:18:20.440 that the browser
00:18:21.000 does not have
00:18:21.840 any menu choices.
00:18:23.460 Neither the app
00:18:24.200 nor the browser
00:18:25.060 have any menu choices
00:18:26.880 for cancelling.
00:18:28.360 But you have to look
00:18:29.280 for a long time
00:18:29.880 to figure that out.
00:18:30.980 So I go to Google
00:18:31.860 because I know
00:18:32.700 other people
00:18:33.160 have had this problem.
00:18:34.600 And I Google
00:18:35.220 how to cancel
00:18:36.100 and it produces
00:18:37.740 a secret URL.
00:18:40.500 Ha ha ha.
00:18:42.000 Motherfuckers.
00:18:42.900 There's a secret URL.
00:18:45.120 So I go to
00:18:45.620 the secret URL
00:18:46.440 and sure enough
00:18:47.620 that seems to be
00:18:48.880 getting me closer
00:18:49.700 to the mix.
00:18:50.760 But they have
00:18:51.260 lots of options
00:18:52.080 that look like
00:18:52.900 it would cancel.
00:18:54.360 For example,
00:18:55.280 one of the options
00:18:55.780 is manage your services.
00:18:59.280 So you can change
00:19:00.360 what services
00:19:01.080 you're ordering.
00:19:02.140 Doesn't that seem
00:19:02.840 like an obvious place
00:19:03.700 to cancel?
00:19:04.900 If you're going
00:19:05.540 to manage your services,
00:19:06.880 you can add to them,
00:19:08.180 you can change them,
00:19:09.020 and obviously
00:19:09.920 one of the choices
00:19:11.240 would be to cancel.
00:19:12.340 Obviously.
00:19:13.460 Nope.
00:19:14.240 Nope.
00:19:14.920 You can only add to them.
00:19:16.540 Ha ha ha.
00:19:18.260 You can only upgrade.
00:19:20.580 Right?
00:19:20.900 That's it.
00:19:21.480 I think you can downgrade,
00:19:22.980 but you can't cancel.
00:19:24.460 So you have to figure
00:19:25.440 that out.
00:19:26.260 So you have Google
00:19:27.000 searching five different
00:19:28.320 apps and browsers
00:19:29.300 in play.
00:19:31.840 Then, of course,
00:19:32.740 it sends you to a chat.
00:19:34.920 It sends you to a chat.
00:19:36.760 And then it tells you
00:19:37.600 you're going to have
00:19:37.980 to wait for a long time
00:19:39.180 for the chat.
00:19:40.700 There are five people
00:19:41.300 out of you.
00:19:42.640 Now, normally,
00:19:43.360 I would bail out
00:19:44.100 at that point.
00:19:45.300 Too much time.
00:19:46.880 But not this time.
00:19:48.340 No.
00:19:48.720 I came to play.
00:19:50.340 I put that down.
00:19:51.140 And I said,
00:19:51.540 I don't care how long
00:19:52.280 I'm going to wait.
00:19:53.200 I'm going to wait
00:19:53.800 for that chat bastard
00:19:54.740 to come and talk to me.
00:19:56.560 Sure enough,
00:19:57.460 the chatter finally,
00:19:58.640 finally comes on.
00:20:00.420 And what does the chatter do?
00:20:02.620 Ask me the same questions
00:20:04.140 as the last chatter.
00:20:06.700 Same ones.
00:20:08.260 Had to verify the account,
00:20:09.700 make sure you're
00:20:10.180 who you are.
00:20:10.960 So they're going to have
00:20:11.660 to ask your name
00:20:12.360 and who you are
00:20:13.100 and your account numbers
00:20:14.160 every time you talk
00:20:15.500 to somebody else.
00:20:16.300 and you're never
00:20:17.120 going to talk
00:20:17.520 to the right person.
00:20:19.180 So at the end
00:20:20.140 of all this stuff,
00:20:21.540 do you know
00:20:21.800 what the chat person
00:20:22.980 tells me?
00:20:24.720 Oh, you're talking
00:20:25.960 to the repair people.
00:20:28.400 That's right.
00:20:29.640 That wasn't the right place.
00:20:31.280 It was the place
00:20:32.140 that they sent me to.
00:20:33.520 Like, I didn't make it up.
00:20:35.140 It's exactly
00:20:35.980 where they sent me to.
00:20:37.220 They actually send you
00:20:38.500 to the repair place first
00:20:39.880 because it's the wrong place.
00:20:42.240 And they say
00:20:43.000 they can't do it.
00:20:43.760 Now he says
00:20:45.180 he's going to transfer me
00:20:46.520 to the right place.
00:20:48.380 How often
00:20:49.140 does the transfer work?
00:20:51.700 Have you ever been
00:20:52.360 transferred to the place
00:20:53.440 that can help you?
00:20:57.600 Well, it sort of
00:20:58.940 kind of worked
00:21:00.280 and then I had to wait again.
00:21:02.080 All right.
00:21:02.300 I just could put it
00:21:03.020 in another queue.
00:21:05.240 Now here's the other trick.
00:21:07.680 When you call to cancel,
00:21:10.340 do their computers work?
00:21:12.100 Do the people
00:21:14.040 you're talking to say,
00:21:15.160 well, my computer
00:21:16.360 is working great today.
00:21:18.000 Not only is my computer working,
00:21:19.900 but the response time
00:21:21.060 is really tight.
00:21:23.600 I'll get this done
00:21:24.740 and this could take 10 seconds.
00:21:27.040 No.
00:21:27.800 No.
00:21:28.200 They will tell you
00:21:28.820 that there's something wrong
00:21:29.880 with the computer system
00:21:31.000 at that moment
00:21:31.920 and they can't possibly
00:21:33.580 do this transaction.
00:21:35.380 But if you waited
00:21:36.380 a long time,
00:21:38.480 maybe they could get it done.
00:21:39.600 See, they're all trying
00:21:41.760 and all of this
00:21:42.880 is designed
00:21:43.400 to make you give up.
00:21:45.720 And under normal circumstances,
00:21:47.320 I would have given up
00:21:48.620 because I always have
00:21:50.000 something more important to do.
00:21:52.100 And for two years,
00:21:53.540 I've been telling myself,
00:21:54.740 I want to cancel that service
00:21:56.380 because I'm paying for it
00:21:57.400 and it wasn't cheap.
00:21:59.200 But I always say,
00:22:00.540 no,
00:22:01.540 a full day of my time
00:22:03.180 is not worth
00:22:04.520 the one monthly payment.
00:22:06.820 Right?
00:22:07.100 I don't want to spend
00:22:08.660 a whole day
00:22:09.480 just to avoid
00:22:12.960 one payment of the month.
00:22:14.240 I'll just do it next month
00:22:15.220 and then next month
00:22:16.440 and next month.
00:22:17.420 So basically,
00:22:18.180 it's a way to make me
00:22:19.000 never do it.
00:22:20.240 But I was there to play.
00:22:22.080 So I stayed
00:22:22.800 and I worked
00:22:23.480 and I chatted
00:22:24.200 and I,
00:22:26.040 let's see,
00:22:26.380 what else did they mean?
00:22:28.800 Yeah.
00:22:30.480 And then there were
00:22:31.560 lots of misspellings
00:22:32.560 on the chat
00:22:33.220 which made me wonder
00:22:35.200 if the person
00:22:36.700 even knew
00:22:37.240 how to cancel
00:22:37.840 my program.
00:22:39.640 So now I have to worry
00:22:40.700 if they're canceling
00:22:41.540 the other services
00:22:42.380 I need,
00:22:43.200 like my internet.
00:22:44.520 And I'm thinking,
00:22:45.080 oh my God,
00:22:45.500 oh my God,
00:22:45.920 my internet service
00:22:46.720 is going to be canceled.
00:22:50.360 But finally,
00:22:51.400 he said he canceled them
00:22:52.620 or she,
00:22:53.440 I don't know.
00:22:54.300 And maybe it happened.
00:22:56.800 So all I'm saying
00:22:57.540 is that if Xfinity
00:22:58.740 could partner
00:22:59.500 with the Biden administration
00:23:00.800 and simply say,
00:23:02.400 yeah,
00:23:02.920 everybody south of the border,
00:23:04.140 you're welcome to come in.
00:23:05.740 There are no restrictions.
00:23:08.180 And then just make them
00:23:09.140 go through
00:23:09.500 the Xfinity process
00:23:11.200 to get into the country
00:23:12.340 and that's it.
00:23:15.140 Nobody else
00:23:15.860 would ever get
00:23:16.340 in the country
00:23:16.800 because the immigrants
00:23:18.920 would be like,
00:23:20.080 fuck this.
00:23:21.680 I'm going to some other,
00:23:22.540 I'm going to Canada.
00:23:24.620 All right.
00:23:26.620 So Trump did a town hall
00:23:28.860 on CNN last night.
00:23:30.880 How many of you
00:23:31.440 watched that?
00:23:34.140 Here are my big takeaways
00:23:37.120 and I'm going to get
00:23:37.900 into some details
00:23:39.320 because they're all fun.
00:23:41.320 Number one,
00:23:43.340 you think you remembered
00:23:44.700 how fun he was.
00:23:47.120 You think you sort of
00:23:48.220 remember it,
00:23:49.560 but you're also sort of glad
00:23:51.140 that you were out of the fight
00:23:53.320 for a while.
00:23:54.360 You know,
00:23:54.640 kind of glad not to think
00:23:55.900 about him for a while
00:23:56.700 because he just
00:23:57.340 takes over your brain
00:23:58.920 and sets it on fire.
00:23:59.860 Oh my God.
00:24:04.080 I've never been
00:24:05.300 more entertained
00:24:06.180 by an hour of content
00:24:08.160 on a screen.
00:24:10.100 And I actually mean that.
00:24:11.200 I don't think,
00:24:13.000 those of you,
00:24:14.020 I was doing live stream
00:24:15.240 while that happened.
00:24:17.600 And if you watched,
00:24:18.940 I think you can validate that.
00:24:20.540 I almost hurt myself
00:24:22.760 from laughing so hard.
00:24:23.920 I've never seen
00:24:25.840 a performance that good.
00:24:28.060 Now,
00:24:28.640 did he pass
00:24:29.300 the fact checking?
00:24:30.600 Of course not.
00:24:33.200 Of course not.
00:24:34.840 Did I agree
00:24:35.780 with everything he said
00:24:36.820 as being true?
00:24:37.900 And no.
00:24:39.860 No.
00:24:40.560 So it's not about
00:24:41.300 what's true.
00:24:42.480 Right?
00:24:43.040 And I'm not going
00:24:43.620 to tell you
00:24:44.000 he should be your president
00:24:44.900 because I'm a single issue voter
00:24:47.720 and the single issue
00:24:48.840 is fentanyl
00:24:49.620 and he never mentioned it.
00:24:51.620 So if you're asking me,
00:24:52.640 you know,
00:24:52.840 do I back him or not
00:24:54.020 because of this performance?
00:24:55.640 No.
00:24:56.200 I don't.
00:24:57.040 Because he didn't even
00:24:57.980 mention my number one issue.
00:25:00.080 But,
00:25:01.000 as a performance,
00:25:02.960 I'm going to grade it
00:25:03.900 as a performance.
00:25:06.160 Oh my God.
00:25:08.780 There is nobody,
00:25:10.220 nobody in the world
00:25:12.360 that we know of
00:25:14.040 who could do
00:25:15.320 what he did.
00:25:17.620 I'll talk about it
00:25:18.760 in detail,
00:25:19.860 but it was
00:25:20.720 amazing.
00:25:23.020 It was so entertaining.
00:25:24.640 Again,
00:25:25.860 not on a political
00:25:26.860 scale,
00:25:28.680 but as a performer,
00:25:30.640 it was amazing.
00:25:32.260 So the first thing
00:25:33.060 I'd say is
00:25:33.720 age is not showing.
00:25:36.800 So his age
00:25:37.740 did not show at all.
00:25:40.220 Which is not to say
00:25:41.480 I'm not concerned about it.
00:25:43.180 I do think age
00:25:44.120 is one of the biggest issues
00:25:45.120 for both Trump
00:25:45.940 and Biden.
00:25:47.280 But it didn't show.
00:25:48.760 And that's worth
00:25:49.280 mentioning.
00:25:50.220 You know,
00:25:50.400 four years from now
00:25:51.200 may be a different story.
00:25:52.980 But at the moment
00:25:53.840 he looked 25.
00:25:56.360 In terms of
00:25:57.500 his mental dexterity.
00:26:01.400 All right.
00:26:02.160 Somehow he got
00:26:03.060 a friendly crowd
00:26:04.140 at a CNN town hall.
00:26:07.160 That was weird.
00:26:08.180 The crowd
00:26:09.120 was very pro-Trump.
00:26:11.280 And I assume
00:26:11.980 that's just because
00:26:12.800 anti-Trump people
00:26:14.340 just didn't want to go.
00:26:16.240 Maybe they couldn't
00:26:16.900 get any anti-Trump people
00:26:18.040 to sign up.
00:26:19.140 I don't know.
00:26:19.940 But somehow
00:26:20.560 he had the crowd
00:26:21.280 on his side.
00:26:23.540 And even the questions
00:26:24.660 were friendly
00:26:25.200 from the crowd.
00:26:27.580 Here's something
00:26:28.340 that I thought
00:26:28.960 was missing
00:26:29.620 from the entire evening.
00:26:31.460 But I didn't watch
00:26:32.400 all of the...
00:26:33.320 I didn't watch
00:26:34.180 all the commentary
00:26:34.840 after.
00:26:35.240 So can you do
00:26:36.400 a fact check on me?
00:26:37.960 So here's a fact check
00:26:39.300 I need.
00:26:40.800 I did not hear
00:26:41.500 CNN harp on racism.
00:26:44.800 Yes or no?
00:26:47.000 I didn't hear it.
00:26:48.920 Was there anything
00:26:49.580 about racism?
00:26:52.080 And isn't that weird?
00:26:56.720 Yeah.
00:26:57.400 It's like
00:26:57.960 obviously missing.
00:26:59.380 Because wasn't that
00:27:00.380 the number one thing?
00:27:01.380 Why would it be missing?
00:27:04.300 Did it stop working?
00:27:05.700 And it makes you wonder
00:27:06.440 if that's a strategy.
00:27:11.240 Did any of the commentators
00:27:13.160 say anything about racism?
00:27:18.160 All right.
00:27:18.800 I didn't see it.
00:27:19.760 But I would say
00:27:20.440 that's notable.
00:27:22.060 And maybe it's also
00:27:23.300 a compliment to CNN.
00:27:26.440 Maybe that shows
00:27:28.200 some interest
00:27:29.700 in covering the issues.
00:27:31.380 instead of just
00:27:32.620 making stuff up.
00:27:35.100 All right.
00:27:38.620 It was interesting
00:27:39.680 that Caitlin Collins
00:27:40.660 was the interviewer.
00:27:42.660 And I'll say
00:27:43.320 a few compliments
00:27:44.060 to her.
00:27:45.160 Caitlin was
00:27:45.860 very well prepared
00:27:46.900 and very professional.
00:27:50.060 And she made
00:27:51.780 the show great.
00:27:53.580 The two of them
00:27:54.560 were a perfect
00:27:55.960 combination
00:27:56.580 for entertainment.
00:27:58.280 Right.
00:27:58.580 Now there wasn't
00:27:59.200 much she could do
00:28:00.020 because Trump
00:28:01.560 totally bowled her over
00:28:02.720 and he would stop her
00:28:04.420 with one hand.
00:28:05.720 I was laughing.
00:28:06.600 He does the one hand stop.
00:28:08.020 She starts talking
00:28:08.880 and he just puts up
00:28:09.640 the hand.
00:28:11.040 And he just stops her
00:28:11.900 with the hand.
00:28:12.760 And I'm talking.
00:28:14.400 So she tried
00:28:15.740 to ask questions.
00:28:17.400 But when Trump
00:28:18.820 got going,
00:28:19.900 he would just go.
00:28:21.320 And he would just be
00:28:22.080 talking on top of her.
00:28:23.220 And there was nothing
00:28:24.380 that CNN could do.
00:28:26.300 CNN set themselves up
00:28:27.940 in a way that
00:28:29.160 is hilarious.
00:28:30.120 They probably won't
00:28:30.620 do it again.
00:28:31.760 But once the hour
00:28:33.340 was blocked off,
00:28:35.180 they couldn't turn
00:28:35.900 off the camera.
00:28:37.980 And they couldn't
00:28:38.940 stop him from
00:28:39.640 talking over Caitlin
00:28:40.840 because she's not,
00:28:42.080 she doesn't have
00:28:42.540 a big booming voice
00:28:43.940 where she could just
00:28:45.040 sort of take control.
00:28:47.080 But he does.
00:28:48.420 So he just completely
00:28:49.540 owned the stage,
00:28:50.680 got to say whatever
00:28:51.820 he wanted to say,
00:28:53.300 while she was trying
00:28:54.100 to fact check him
00:28:55.000 by under-talking.
00:28:57.200 So he'd say stuff like,
00:28:58.780 and the sun is hot.
00:29:00.100 And she'd say
00:29:00.800 in a lower voice,
00:29:02.580 well, the sun is not
00:29:03.440 always hot.
00:29:04.040 Not at night.
00:29:05.260 And the clouds
00:29:06.460 are in the sky.
00:29:07.880 Well, it could be fog.
00:29:09.400 You know,
00:29:09.580 so she's just under-talking
00:29:10.880 and all like fact-checking him.
00:29:12.760 But the under-talk
00:29:13.840 fact-checking,
00:29:15.180 even if it was correct,
00:29:16.960 I don't know how much
00:29:17.680 was correct,
00:29:19.020 didn't really have
00:29:20.500 the same
00:29:21.160 weight
00:29:22.100 as what he was saying.
00:29:23.780 So he was just winning
00:29:24.660 and winning and winning.
00:29:25.900 And the fact-checking
00:29:26.760 was just bouncing off.
00:29:29.520 So that was fun.
00:29:30.720 So Caitlin was dressed
00:29:31.920 in a pantsuit,
00:29:34.120 all-white pantsuit,
00:29:35.940 which was the perfect choice
00:29:37.600 because she'd be talking
00:29:39.360 about this E.G.
00:29:40.140 and Carol stuff
00:29:41.020 and, you know,
00:29:42.320 Me Too-ing
00:29:42.820 and misogyny stuff.
00:29:45.200 So she dressed
00:29:46.800 like a virgin man
00:29:49.040 in an all-white pantsuit.
00:29:51.900 And I thought,
00:29:52.880 that's kind of clever.
00:29:55.180 She,
00:29:55.500 I think it would have been
00:29:56.620 a mistake
00:29:57.260 for her to present herself
00:29:58.940 as an attractive woman
00:30:01.520 because she is
00:30:03.480 an attractive woman.
00:30:04.560 So she could have,
00:30:05.500 you know,
00:30:05.680 gone that way
00:30:06.440 and kind of sold
00:30:07.720 the miniskirt
00:30:09.060 or whatever.
00:30:09.500 but she went
00:30:10.940 with the most professional,
00:30:13.820 you know,
00:30:14.380 virgin,
00:30:15.700 young man look.
00:30:18.380 And by the way,
00:30:19.280 she looked great.
00:30:20.420 It's not an insult.
00:30:22.140 Style-wise,
00:30:23.000 style-wise,
00:30:23.900 it was terrific.
00:30:25.060 Very good.
00:30:26.100 But it's just funny
00:30:27.020 to see how they,
00:30:27.700 they plan out
00:30:29.500 the images.
00:30:31.960 So I thought she did
00:30:33.020 as good a job
00:30:33.620 as you can do
00:30:34.180 in that situation
00:30:34.920 but it was just
00:30:35.840 an awesome combination
00:30:37.580 of characters,
00:30:38.600 Trump and her.
00:30:39.500 Some would say
00:30:41.900 that Trump
00:30:42.820 actually grabbed her
00:30:43.960 by the pantsuit.
00:30:47.080 Anybody?
00:30:49.080 Grabbed her
00:30:49.640 by the pantsuit?
00:30:51.020 No?
00:30:51.840 All right.
00:30:52.360 We'll let that go.
00:30:55.860 Of course,
00:30:56.600 they had to talk
00:30:57.040 about E. Jean Carroll
00:30:58.060 and the case
00:30:58.940 that she said
00:30:59.740 that he raped her.
00:31:02.360 The jury found
00:31:03.120 that he didn't rape her
00:31:04.340 but that he sexually,
00:31:05.660 sexually battery,
00:31:07.560 which is touching,
00:31:08.640 unwanted touching
00:31:09.920 of a sexual nature.
00:31:14.420 And, of course,
00:31:15.520 the whole point
00:31:16.200 of that was
00:31:16.840 that she was defamed.
00:31:18.700 So it wasn't so much
00:31:19.940 just that she was,
00:31:21.420 you know,
00:31:22.320 victimized,
00:31:22.920 she would say,
00:31:24.000 but that she was defamed.
00:31:27.040 And then CNN
00:31:28.660 put Trump on stage
00:31:30.340 to talk about it.
00:31:32.180 For those of you
00:31:33.120 who didn't see it,
00:31:34.580 let's see if you can
00:31:35.540 predict what happened.
00:31:36.420 Did Trump
00:31:38.500 do any further
00:31:40.060 defaming
00:31:40.880 of E. Jean Carroll?
00:31:43.220 Was there any
00:31:44.260 extra defaming
00:31:45.500 that happened?
00:31:47.040 So if her intention
00:31:48.540 was to stop
00:31:49.420 all the defaming,
00:31:51.200 how'd that work out?
00:31:54.080 Oh, there was
00:31:54.960 a little defaming left.
00:31:56.680 He did a little defaming.
00:31:57.900 Yeah.
00:31:59.260 We all got to hear
00:32:00.500 that E. Jean Carroll's
00:32:02.700 cat was named
00:32:03.700 Vagina.
00:32:04.340 Now, you might say
00:32:06.820 to yourself,
00:32:07.580 how is that relevant
00:32:08.560 to anything?
00:32:11.020 It doesn't have to be.
00:32:12.120 It's just really funny.
00:32:14.800 It just has to be funny.
00:32:17.460 So Trump did
00:32:18.800 the Rosie O'Donnell move,
00:32:22.500 you know,
00:32:22.720 the first 2016,
00:32:24.840 the first debate.
00:32:26.300 He was accused
00:32:26.980 of bad behavior
00:32:29.280 with women.
00:32:30.420 And he just said,
00:32:31.180 now,
00:32:31.420 just only Rosie O'Donnell.
00:32:32.680 and then
00:32:33.820 that became the joke.
00:32:36.480 You couldn't even think
00:32:37.320 about the accusation anymore
00:32:38.540 because his response
00:32:39.520 to it was too funny.
00:32:40.940 And here he is
00:32:41.680 dealing with these
00:32:42.560 allegations
00:32:43.240 and his response is,
00:32:45.600 she had a candy
00:32:46.480 vagina.
00:32:47.040 Yeah.
00:32:47.220 If you picked
00:32:57.340 a billion people
00:32:58.520 to put on stage
00:33:00.140 and have to defend
00:33:01.240 themselves against
00:33:02.420 sexual battery charges,
00:33:05.420 nobody would have
00:33:06.400 ever done it that well.
00:33:08.140 Nobody has ever
00:33:09.020 defended themselves
00:33:10.020 from sexual charges
00:33:11.660 better than saying
00:33:13.000 her cat's name
00:33:13.800 is Vagina.
00:33:14.440 I'm sorry.
00:33:16.200 It's non-intuitive,
00:33:18.140 but it worked.
00:33:20.360 And it's not an accident.
00:33:22.280 If you'd never seen
00:33:23.480 him do this before,
00:33:24.740 you'd say,
00:33:25.380 well,
00:33:25.480 he got lucky.
00:33:26.460 No,
00:33:26.940 he didn't get lucky.
00:33:28.300 This is technique.
00:33:29.880 He has the technique.
00:33:32.000 He also said,
00:33:33.580 he also said,
00:33:37.920 and this had nothing
00:33:38.800 to do with anything.
00:33:40.060 He just had to put it
00:33:41.060 in there
00:33:41.340 because it was funny
00:33:42.140 that she had referred
00:33:44.280 to her husband
00:33:44.980 as a big ape
00:33:45.940 and he pointed out
00:33:47.500 that the husband
00:33:48.140 was actually a great guy.
00:33:50.200 Trump himself
00:33:50.940 likes the husband,
00:33:52.160 but she called him
00:33:53.160 a big ape
00:33:53.880 and here's the punchline.
00:33:56.980 He's black.
00:33:58.600 That's right.
00:33:59.860 He was actually
00:34:00.480 accusing E.G.
00:34:03.800 He accused E.G.
00:34:05.580 and Carol
00:34:05.920 of being a racist
00:34:07.660 against her own
00:34:08.600 black husband.
00:34:09.260 I'm not here
00:34:20.940 to defend E.G.
00:34:22.200 and Carol,
00:34:23.000 but you know
00:34:23.900 how people say,
00:34:24.740 I'm not a racist,
00:34:26.700 I have a black friend
00:34:27.700 and then everybody
00:34:28.920 laughs and goes,
00:34:29.700 oh,
00:34:30.060 yeah,
00:34:30.540 that's what all
00:34:31.380 the racists say,
00:34:32.180 I have a black friend.
00:34:34.020 But I feel like
00:34:36.080 if you marry
00:34:36.760 a black man,
00:34:39.220 that should be allowed
00:34:40.440 as a defense
00:34:41.180 against racism.
00:34:43.520 Does anybody disagree
00:34:45.200 that marrying
00:34:46.480 somebody black
00:34:47.440 should be
00:34:48.560 a pretty good defense
00:34:49.920 against being a racist?
00:34:51.520 But it doesn't matter.
00:34:53.040 It doesn't matter at all
00:34:54.200 whether she's a racist
00:34:55.220 or not a racist.
00:34:56.240 I assume not.
00:34:58.100 But the fact that
00:34:59.740 he would bring that up
00:35:00.620 at all,
00:35:01.020 because it's so visual,
00:35:03.520 like you can see him.
00:35:05.500 And then he has to tell us
00:35:06.920 the name of her husband,
00:35:08.700 which has nothing
00:35:09.540 to do with anything,
00:35:11.100 but his name
00:35:11.660 is John Johnson.
00:35:15.420 That's right.
00:35:16.080 So in his effort
00:35:17.820 to describe E.G.
00:35:18.940 and Carol
00:35:19.340 and give you
00:35:20.200 the frame that he wants,
00:35:22.300 he managed to describe
00:35:23.620 her family
00:35:24.420 as a vagina
00:35:26.760 and a Johnson.
00:35:29.080 That's right.
00:35:31.020 Yeah.
00:35:31.720 I don't know
00:35:32.240 if there are any
00:35:32.680 other family members
00:35:33.600 like children or whatever,
00:35:35.100 but the only ones
00:35:35.840 he mentioned
00:35:36.280 was the vagina
00:35:37.200 and the Johnson.
00:35:39.220 Now,
00:35:40.060 if there could be
00:35:41.820 a better defense
00:35:42.880 against sexual
00:35:44.660 battery charges,
00:35:45.880 I don't know
00:35:46.720 what it would be.
00:35:48.580 Like,
00:35:49.400 this is a defense
00:35:52.440 that's so good
00:35:55.240 it's like for the ages.
00:35:57.800 I found myself
00:35:59.120 laughing uncontrollably
00:36:00.640 about the fact
00:36:03.420 that E.G.
00:36:03.960 and Carol
00:36:04.400 was taking him
00:36:06.780 to court
00:36:07.260 for defaming her
00:36:08.500 and then he goes
00:36:10.520 on CNN
00:36:11.120 and says she's a racist
00:36:13.540 with a cat
00:36:14.200 named Vagina
00:36:14.980 and that's all
00:36:16.140 I'll ever remember
00:36:17.020 about her.
00:36:18.160 I will never remember
00:36:19.260 anything else
00:36:20.040 about her
00:36:20.580 except her cat's name
00:36:21.900 and she may or may
00:36:23.620 not be a racist
00:36:24.280 against her own husband.
00:36:25.280 That was classic Trump.
00:36:31.740 All right,
00:36:32.020 what else happened?
00:36:33.440 He did his usual
00:36:34.540 amazing communication job.
00:36:36.680 So,
00:36:37.120 this is what gets lost
00:36:38.340 with Trump.
00:36:40.040 There is nobody
00:36:41.040 in the world,
00:36:41.840 in the political world,
00:36:43.060 this is my opinion,
00:36:44.920 who can
00:36:45.940 describe a policy
00:36:48.440 and why he wants
00:36:49.500 to do it
00:36:50.160 faster or more effective
00:36:52.340 than he can.
00:36:52.980 It's really amazing
00:36:54.940 because he talked
00:36:55.720 about a lot
00:36:56.180 of different topics
00:36:57.060 and each of these topics
00:36:58.680 he can introduce
00:36:59.500 with a short sentence
00:37:00.680 followed by a number
00:37:02.380 of other short sentences
00:37:03.460 that fit perfectly,
00:37:05.500 like they all make sense
00:37:06.560 and in a very
00:37:07.880 tight little package
00:37:09.060 he's got this
00:37:10.700 little persuasive
00:37:11.720 deal for you.
00:37:13.540 It was very fun
00:37:14.620 to watch
00:37:15.220 how well he could
00:37:16.460 take complicated things
00:37:17.920 and boil that
00:37:19.060 down into simple.
00:37:19.900 Now,
00:37:20.860 as part of that,
00:37:21.700 does he oversimplify?
00:37:23.940 Of course.
00:37:25.000 To the point of being
00:37:25.800 inaccurate?
00:37:26.480 Of course.
00:37:27.180 Does he use hyperbole?
00:37:29.300 Of course.
00:37:30.620 Does he pass
00:37:31.240 all the fact checking?
00:37:32.720 Eh,
00:37:33.180 not so much.
00:37:35.500 But he's,
00:37:36.320 I think he's
00:37:36.960 completely aware
00:37:37.760 when he's
00:37:38.680 giving a good argument
00:37:40.680 and when he's
00:37:41.480 just bullshitting.
00:37:42.780 I'm pretty sure
00:37:43.660 he knows the difference.
00:37:44.980 But he does both
00:37:45.900 of those things
00:37:46.600 so well,
00:37:47.840 like nobody
00:37:49.080 can bullshit
00:37:49.780 better than he can.
00:37:52.120 Right?
00:37:52.680 But also,
00:37:54.040 weirdly,
00:37:55.140 even though he's
00:37:55.800 the king of bullshit,
00:37:57.020 when he has
00:37:57.740 an actual good argument,
00:37:59.660 he can present it
00:38:01.040 in the fewest words
00:38:02.240 with the most punch
00:38:03.440 of anybody
00:38:04.560 you'll ever see.
00:38:06.000 And he doesn't
00:38:06.560 get credit for that
00:38:07.460 because they make fun
00:38:08.980 of him.
00:38:09.200 He talks like a
00:38:09.740 sixth grader or whatever.
00:38:11.220 That's the technique.
00:38:13.220 So here's how
00:38:14.100 he describes
00:38:14.640 some other things.
00:38:15.360 He described oil
00:38:16.360 as liquid gold.
00:38:17.840 Just think about that.
00:38:20.940 Because he turns
00:38:21.720 everything into a visual
00:38:22.780 and something
00:38:23.780 you can feel.
00:38:25.460 So oil is the thing
00:38:26.520 you put in your car.
00:38:28.160 But he turned it
00:38:29.080 into liquid gold.
00:38:30.780 If you knew
00:38:31.520 you had liquid gold
00:38:32.620 under your ground,
00:38:34.400 you'd have to go get it.
00:38:36.100 But if you knew
00:38:36.800 you had some dark,
00:38:37.840 oily stuff
00:38:38.680 that's going to
00:38:39.860 gunk up the atmosphere
00:38:40.840 and cause you
00:38:41.500 some climate change
00:38:42.620 and pollute,
00:38:44.360 well,
00:38:44.680 you don't need
00:38:45.100 that so much.
00:38:46.460 But liquid gold?
00:38:48.140 Well,
00:38:48.620 I need some
00:38:49.140 of that liquid gold.
00:38:50.640 Get me some of that.
00:38:51.620 Yeah,
00:38:51.820 the Beverly Hillbillies.
00:38:56.460 And then
00:38:57.100 when he was asked
00:38:58.300 about inflation,
00:38:59.260 what he would do
00:38:59.780 about it,
00:39:00.740 he made the story
00:39:01.720 that energy prices
00:39:03.440 were driven high
00:39:05.280 by Biden.
00:39:06.580 And you say to yourself,
00:39:07.820 okay,
00:39:08.060 that's probably true.
00:39:09.620 Biden probably did
00:39:10.440 things that affected
00:39:11.440 energy prices.
00:39:12.300 And he says,
00:39:13.680 energy is in
00:39:15.200 all of our other prices
00:39:16.460 because you need
00:39:17.440 energy to do anything
00:39:18.400 and therefore
00:39:19.460 everything went up.
00:39:21.300 And I thought to myself,
00:39:22.700 okay,
00:39:23.360 that is not true.
00:39:26.860 It's true-ish.
00:39:28.980 I mean,
00:39:29.680 it has more to do
00:39:30.260 with how much money
00:39:31.220 was printed, right?
00:39:32.600 It was basically,
00:39:33.460 it's a money printing problem.
00:39:35.000 But it's also true
00:39:36.320 that energy prices
00:39:37.760 went up.
00:39:38.260 And now CNN
00:39:41.760 does a fact check
00:39:42.600 on this.
00:39:43.000 I'll talk about this later.
00:39:45.020 So CNN doesn't buy
00:39:46.300 the fact that
00:39:47.360 what Biden was doing
00:39:48.660 was reducing
00:39:49.520 the amount
00:39:50.100 of oil exploration.
00:39:51.900 Well,
00:39:52.280 I'll skip ahead.
00:39:53.140 CNN's fact check
00:39:54.040 is that Biden
00:39:54.680 was producing
00:39:56.160 as much
00:39:56.940 oil as Trump.
00:40:00.120 That basically
00:40:00.700 Biden didn't really
00:40:01.940 pull back on anything.
00:40:03.620 Now that fact check
00:40:04.520 doesn't sound right to me.
00:40:06.260 But I think it's right
00:40:07.440 in some way.
00:40:08.260 So it's not as clean
00:40:10.060 as Trump was pro-oil
00:40:13.580 and Biden was anti-oil.
00:40:15.820 Because Biden's doing
00:40:16.680 a lot of oil stuff
00:40:17.700 more because he has to.
00:40:20.220 I think more because
00:40:20.920 he has to.
00:40:21.780 It's not his first choice
00:40:23.100 because it doesn't go
00:40:23.800 with the climate change stuff.
00:40:25.820 But there's maybe
00:40:26.680 not that much difference.
00:40:28.520 Now,
00:40:29.600 do you believe that?
00:40:31.780 Do you believe
00:40:32.280 that a Trump presidency
00:40:33.580 would produce
00:40:34.840 as much energy
00:40:35.960 from America
00:40:36.720 as a Biden?
00:40:38.260 administration?
00:40:40.300 I don't.
00:40:41.940 Right.
00:40:42.380 So in terms of the
00:40:43.580 persuasiveness
00:40:44.320 of the argument,
00:40:45.200 it totally works,
00:40:46.620 even if the fact checking
00:40:48.240 is more nuanced.
00:40:51.740 As an argument,
00:40:52.800 it works.
00:40:53.720 Because he makes it
00:40:54.720 so clean and simple.
00:40:56.280 I would drill more
00:40:57.260 than Biden.
00:40:58.420 Therefore,
00:40:59.060 we'd have more energy
00:40:59.900 and your prices go down.
00:41:00.980 If the price of energy
00:41:02.660 goes down,
00:41:03.660 all the prices
00:41:04.540 of your goods go down.
00:41:06.520 Boom.
00:41:08.140 Now,
00:41:08.960 that's true,
00:41:10.860 but it's ignoring
00:41:11.840 the whole printing money problem.
00:41:15.020 So,
00:41:15.780 it's kind of genius
00:41:16.960 because he simplified it
00:41:18.320 to the way
00:41:18.700 we can all understand it,
00:41:20.420 but he simplified it
00:41:21.700 to the point
00:41:22.120 of being misleading.
00:41:23.940 Does it matter?
00:41:25.820 Probably not.
00:41:27.820 Probably not.
00:41:28.740 He said he could
00:41:32.660 solve the Ukrainian war
00:41:34.700 in one day,
00:41:36.220 and when asked
00:41:37.460 who he wants
00:41:38.060 to win the war,
00:41:39.800 he would not say Ukraine.
00:41:43.760 Is that good or bad?
00:41:47.100 Well,
00:41:47.860 here's how he framed it.
00:41:49.260 He said,
00:41:49.900 I want people
00:41:50.460 to stop dying,
00:41:52.040 but do you want
00:41:52.800 Ukraine to win
00:41:53.720 or Russia?
00:41:54.740 I want people
00:41:55.700 to stop dying.
00:41:56.720 I'll settle this thing
00:41:57.560 in one day.
00:41:58.740 But do you want
00:41:59.400 Ukraine to win?
00:42:01.480 I want people
00:42:02.360 to stop dying.
00:42:04.440 That was the right answer.
00:42:06.100 It's the high road,
00:42:06.780 right?
00:42:07.240 The high road,
00:42:08.080 and he made us a promise
00:42:09.120 he could end it
00:42:09.760 in one day.
00:42:10.720 Let me ask you this.
00:42:12.580 Do you think
00:42:13.020 he could end it
00:42:13.620 in one day?
00:42:14.260 Let's say one business day,
00:42:15.840 not the first day
00:42:16.900 of office,
00:42:17.420 but do you think
00:42:18.280 he could end it
00:42:18.840 in one business day?
00:42:20.900 Look at all the yeses.
00:42:22.900 I actually think so.
00:42:24.140 I actually believe it
00:42:26.600 because all he'd have
00:42:29.000 to do is say,
00:42:29.840 here's the deal.
00:42:32.640 You better end it now
00:42:34.060 with all the pain
00:42:35.900 that both of you
00:42:36.560 are going to have
00:42:37.020 to take
00:42:37.860 or I'm going to crush
00:42:39.880 both of you.
00:42:41.360 I'll crush both of you.
00:42:42.800 I will crush Ukraine
00:42:43.940 if you don't end it
00:42:45.040 or at least negotiate
00:42:46.460 in good faith.
00:42:48.260 And Russia,
00:42:49.240 I will crush you
00:42:50.500 if you don't negotiate this.
00:42:52.460 I'll crush both of you
00:42:53.940 because you know what?
00:42:55.220 Neither of you
00:42:55.840 are America.
00:42:59.540 That might end it
00:43:01.100 in one day.
00:43:02.880 If the President
00:43:03.820 of the United States
00:43:04.700 goes in and credibly,
00:43:06.260 this is the important part,
00:43:07.680 the credible part,
00:43:09.140 Trump can credibly say,
00:43:11.020 I hope you understand
00:43:12.000 neither of you
00:43:12.600 are of America, right?
00:43:14.200 And you're fucking us.
00:43:16.080 We're done with you
00:43:17.200 fucking us.
00:43:18.640 We don't care
00:43:19.360 what you do
00:43:19.780 to each other, frankly,
00:43:20.680 but you're done fucking us.
00:43:23.480 I'm going to come down
00:43:24.200 like a pile of bricks
00:43:25.560 on both of you.
00:43:26.980 It's done.
00:43:28.500 Figure it out.
00:43:30.260 Could he do it in a day?
00:43:33.220 Maybe.
00:43:35.360 The beauty of it is
00:43:37.180 you can't really
00:43:37.840 rule it out, can you?
00:43:39.460 I would say
00:43:40.160 I would bet against it.
00:43:41.500 I'd bet against it
00:43:42.580 being able to do it
00:43:43.480 in one day
00:43:44.240 but I wouldn't bet
00:43:45.420 against him
00:43:45.900 being able to do it.
00:43:48.460 It would take longer
00:43:49.340 than a day
00:43:49.860 but I actually think
00:43:51.340 he could pull it off
00:43:52.260 because he's the only one
00:43:54.340 who would be willing
00:43:54.960 to say you're not America,
00:43:56.920 Ukraine.
00:43:58.200 Just remember that.
00:43:59.000 You're not America.
00:44:00.420 Hey, Putin,
00:44:01.260 you're not America.
00:44:02.600 We're not on either
00:44:03.600 of your side.
00:44:04.840 We're on our side
00:44:05.760 and you'd better
00:44:07.140 cut it out
00:44:08.040 because you're too expensive.
00:44:09.860 I think he could do it.
00:44:12.620 All right.
00:44:13.180 I had criticized him
00:44:16.000 for calling Ron
00:44:16.940 DeSantis
00:44:17.560 DeSanctimonious
00:44:18.700 but when I heard him
00:44:20.440 use it in context,
00:44:21.960 spoken as opposed
00:44:23.120 to on paper
00:44:24.220 because I'd only seen it
00:44:25.620 in tweets
00:44:26.220 and written form
00:44:27.560 and I didn't like it
00:44:28.900 but when he throws it
00:44:30.460 in a sentence
00:44:31.240 without stopping,
00:44:33.400 he's just talking
00:44:34.060 about it with somebody else.
00:44:35.180 He goes,
00:44:35.400 yeah,
00:44:35.560 and then Ron DeSantis
00:44:36.180 DeSantis
00:44:36.680 DeSantis did this.
00:44:37.840 It worked.
00:44:39.940 He totally sold that thing.
00:44:42.180 I didn't think
00:44:42.820 he could sell that
00:44:43.660 because it just doesn't
00:44:45.700 look right in writing
00:44:46.640 but when you hear him
00:44:48.220 say it,
00:44:49.300 you go,
00:44:50.460 so this is what I said
00:44:51.420 in the man cave
00:44:52.300 last night.
00:44:53.520 When he says
00:44:54.420 Ron DeSantis
00:44:55.120 DeSantis
00:44:55.260 harmonious
00:44:55.740 and he doesn't
00:44:57.040 slow down,
00:44:57.780 he just keeps going
00:44:58.500 on with his sentence,
00:44:59.880 it makes you say,
00:45:01.300 wait,
00:45:01.540 what did he say?
00:45:02.840 And you back up,
00:45:04.200 you replace it
00:45:05.400 with DeSantis
00:45:06.480 and they say,
00:45:07.820 oh,
00:45:08.020 where's he going?
00:45:08.740 And then you have to
00:45:09.260 catch up to the rest
00:45:10.020 of the sentence.
00:45:11.600 Nobody can make you
00:45:12.640 focus better than that.
00:45:15.500 Like,
00:45:15.780 he draws you in
00:45:16.780 and then you can't
00:45:17.680 look away
00:45:18.220 because even within
00:45:19.520 one sentence
00:45:20.420 he's giving you
00:45:21.480 an adventure.
00:45:23.460 There's an adventure
00:45:24.400 within the sentence
00:45:25.280 because you have to
00:45:26.360 check that name
00:45:27.200 in your head,
00:45:28.240 roll it around
00:45:29.020 and then he's
00:45:29.960 already talking ahead
00:45:30.760 and then you've got
00:45:31.180 to go catch up to him.
00:45:32.560 He's making you work
00:45:33.780 to be part of the sentence.
00:45:36.300 It's a phenomenal technique.
00:45:38.980 Phenomenal.
00:45:40.500 All right.
00:45:44.840 There are a lot of things
00:45:45.940 that Trump said
00:45:46.760 that failed the fact-checking.
00:45:50.020 We'll talk about that
00:45:50.900 in a bit.
00:45:51.480 But feel true,
00:45:53.700 which is what he does best.
00:45:55.900 Now,
00:45:56.860 you're going to vote
00:45:57.600 on how you feel.
00:45:59.900 So,
00:46:00.520 making people feel something
00:46:02.020 is the whole trick.
00:46:03.460 It's not about what you think,
00:46:04.560 it's how you feel.
00:46:06.080 And here are some things
00:46:07.140 which he makes you feel
00:46:08.260 the right thing
00:46:09.140 without the right facts.
00:46:12.600 So,
00:46:13.100 when he talks about
00:46:13.740 the election being rigged,
00:46:15.560 he does not have the facts
00:46:16.800 to back that up.
00:46:18.140 He says he does.
00:46:20.040 But,
00:46:20.400 doesn't it feel
00:46:22.000 like it's true?
00:46:24.140 Because you live
00:46:24.880 in a country
00:46:25.380 where I started off
00:46:26.320 saying one-third
00:46:27.080 of your scientific papers
00:46:28.400 are fraudulent.
00:46:29.760 Fifty percent of them
00:46:30.760 can't be reproduced.
00:46:32.600 You know,
00:46:32.800 we live through
00:46:33.520 Russia collusion,
00:46:34.680 we live through
00:46:35.140 the whole vaccination bullshit,
00:46:36.680 the pandemic bullshit.
00:46:38.380 We're in a period
00:46:39.380 in which all the experts
00:46:40.900 have been outed
00:46:42.500 as unreliable.
00:46:44.300 All of them.
00:46:45.940 And,
00:46:46.520 the claims that were made
00:46:48.120 about the election
00:46:48.840 was in a different time.
00:46:51.220 It was a different time.
00:46:52.980 The 2,000 mules
00:46:53.760 has been debunked.
00:46:57.600 And the time now
00:46:58.920 is people don't believe
00:47:00.400 anything from authority.
00:47:02.300 They believe nothing
00:47:03.320 from authority.
00:47:03.980 And that's the right take,
00:47:05.440 by the way.
00:47:06.620 That is the correct view.
00:47:08.860 And so,
00:47:09.240 Trump is now operating
00:47:10.320 in a world
00:47:10.820 in which the public
00:47:11.740 has been trained
00:47:12.660 not to believe anything.
00:47:14.760 So,
00:47:15.260 when he says
00:47:15.840 the elections are rigged,
00:47:18.260 there is no,
00:47:19.460 I'm not aware
00:47:20.040 of any facts
00:47:20.740 that would back that up.
00:47:22.800 And it feels true.
00:47:23.940 What do you think?
00:47:27.440 Would you agree
00:47:28.240 with that statement?
00:47:29.820 That there's not
00:47:30.660 a confirmed fact.
00:47:31.940 Let's say a confirmed fact.
00:47:33.260 You think there's evidence,
00:47:34.720 and maybe there is.
00:47:35.860 But there's no confirmed,
00:47:37.380 you know,
00:47:37.680 court-approved,
00:47:38.700 validated fact
00:47:39.720 that says
00:47:40.520 any elections were rigged.
00:47:43.120 But it sure feels like it.
00:47:45.860 I try to be
00:47:46.920 as skeptical
00:47:47.500 as I possibly can
00:47:48.600 about anything
00:47:49.400 that important.
00:47:50.800 So,
00:47:51.200 I keep my skepticism
00:47:53.020 like,
00:47:53.360 nailed at 100%
00:47:55.440 until there's something
00:47:57.020 that just
00:47:57.480 kicks the shit out of it
00:47:59.040 and I have to
00:47:59.480 change my mind.
00:48:01.060 And even I
00:48:02.320 say it feels like
00:48:04.200 it was rigged.
00:48:05.240 I don't have any evidence
00:48:06.220 of that.
00:48:06.800 But it sure feels like it.
00:48:08.700 So,
00:48:09.140 his ability
00:48:09.980 to go with
00:48:10.580 what feels right
00:48:11.640 over the fact-checking
00:48:13.500 is really effective.
00:48:15.580 You could argue
00:48:16.800 it's morality
00:48:17.560 or ethical
00:48:18.540 context.
00:48:22.760 All right.
00:48:23.000 here's some more
00:48:23.880 of those he did.
00:48:26.280 Oh,
00:48:26.980 so here's a clever
00:48:27.880 framing on abortion.
00:48:29.380 As you know,
00:48:29.960 the Republicans
00:48:30.740 have a huge problem
00:48:32.040 selling their views
00:48:33.820 of abortion
00:48:34.420 to anybody
00:48:35.500 who's on the other side
00:48:36.320 because nobody's
00:48:37.620 buying that.
00:48:39.160 And
00:48:39.620 Trump was asked
00:48:41.960 if he would be
00:48:43.060 in favor of some
00:48:44.420 federal ban
00:48:45.340 on abortion.
00:48:46.720 And his argument
00:48:48.580 was that
00:48:49.940 it was a great
00:48:50.980 success of his
00:48:52.060 to get rid of
00:48:53.360 Roe v.
00:48:54.680 Wade.
00:48:56.600 To which I say,
00:48:58.000 was it?
00:48:59.820 How was that
00:49:00.340 a Trump success?
00:49:04.720 He's not in the
00:49:05.600 Supreme Court.
00:49:07.140 And any Republican
00:49:08.100 would have picked
00:49:10.100 conservative judges,
00:49:12.400 right?
00:49:12.560 So basically,
00:49:14.600 any Republican
00:49:15.260 would have gotten
00:49:15.840 to the same place.
00:49:16.820 Yeah,
00:49:16.980 he did pick them,
00:49:18.280 but any Republican
00:49:19.220 would have been
00:49:19.700 in the same place.
00:49:23.760 That said,
00:49:25.640 I would give it
00:49:26.700 to him.
00:49:27.160 I would give it
00:49:27.960 to him as
00:49:28.420 an accomplishment.
00:49:29.880 What would you say?
00:49:31.500 It just wasn't,
00:49:32.900 it wasn't hard.
00:49:34.620 It wasn't hard,
00:49:35.800 but it did happen.
00:49:36.560 The hard part
00:49:37.440 was winning the election.
00:49:39.400 So I'll give him
00:49:40.000 100% credit
00:49:41.000 for winning the election.
00:49:42.620 And that allowed him
00:49:43.700 to pick the judges.
00:49:44.580 And I don't think
00:49:45.200 another Republican
00:49:45.940 would have necessarily
00:49:46.880 won in 2016.
00:49:50.160 So I guess,
00:49:51.640 I guess we can
00:49:52.200 give him credit
00:49:52.680 for that.
00:49:53.640 But the real credit
00:49:54.580 is that he won
00:49:55.200 the election
00:49:55.620 to be in that position.
00:49:57.740 All right.
00:49:58.480 So he takes credit
00:49:59.780 for that,
00:50:00.220 but then he adds
00:50:01.340 this nuance
00:50:01.920 that I hadn't heard before.
00:50:03.580 It's really clever.
00:50:05.960 He says that
00:50:07.020 what he did
00:50:07.680 by getting rid
00:50:08.320 of Roe v. Wade,
00:50:09.320 taking credit for that,
00:50:10.860 is he gave conservatives,
00:50:14.240 listen to this framing,
00:50:16.040 he gave conservatives
00:50:17.180 some negotiating power
00:50:19.000 at the state level.
00:50:23.100 So he's still saying
00:50:24.260 the states get to work out
00:50:25.700 what they want to do,
00:50:27.660 but now because
00:50:28.860 Roe v. Wade
00:50:29.580 doesn't end the conversation
00:50:30.840 before it starts,
00:50:32.120 there's actually
00:50:32.920 something to talk about.
00:50:34.920 And the way he frames it is,
00:50:36.100 I'm not telling you
00:50:37.080 what I want the law to be.
00:50:39.100 I'm saying I want
00:50:39.920 everybody to be happy.
00:50:41.740 I want everybody
00:50:42.420 to be okay
00:50:43.560 with whatever the law is,
00:50:45.420 which is really clever.
00:50:47.920 That's really clever.
00:50:49.460 Because always before,
00:50:50.740 it was black and white,
00:50:53.740 my opinion should be
00:50:55.100 the law of the land.
00:50:56.860 I've said before
00:50:57.860 that the one person
00:50:58.760 who should not express
00:50:59.880 an opinion on abortion is,
00:51:02.700 who's the one person
00:51:03.660 in the whole country
00:51:04.360 who should not have
00:51:05.100 a public opinion
00:51:05.840 on abortion.
00:51:07.700 Well, a man, okay.
00:51:09.300 That's a separate argument.
00:51:10.700 The president.
00:51:12.700 Yeah, the president
00:51:13.660 should never be,
00:51:15.460 either should stay
00:51:16.640 out of the conversation
00:51:17.540 completely,
00:51:19.020 or should be in favor
00:51:20.780 of life at all,
00:51:22.720 in all situations.
00:51:24.160 You don't want your president
00:51:25.580 ever to say,
00:51:26.400 well, you know,
00:51:29.160 life is special,
00:51:30.220 but I got this special case
00:51:32.780 where maybe we don't
00:51:34.540 need so much life here.
00:51:36.460 You don't want a president
00:51:37.640 who would ever,
00:51:38.760 ever be in favor
00:51:40.320 of less life.
00:51:42.280 But there are real-life
00:51:44.520 situations where people
00:51:45.600 have to make decisions.
00:51:47.340 And I think that has
00:51:48.060 to be driven down
00:51:48.920 as close to the individual
00:51:50.280 as possible.
00:51:51.500 And the state is a lot
00:51:52.780 closer to the individual
00:51:53.820 than the federal government.
00:51:56.720 So I kind of like that.
00:51:57.660 I'm not sure he sold
00:51:58.580 that completely,
00:51:59.500 but I like where
00:52:00.000 that's going.
00:52:01.180 And when asked
00:52:03.280 where he would want
00:52:04.280 the abortion limit to be,
00:52:06.140 how many months
00:52:07.160 or in what conditions,
00:52:08.680 he said with exceptions,
00:52:10.540 you know,
00:52:10.680 some Reagan exceptions
00:52:11.660 like rape and incest
00:52:13.560 or something else
00:52:14.180 or the health of the mother.
00:52:15.720 And those sound reasonable
00:52:18.320 to most people.
00:52:20.280 Even if you disagree,
00:52:22.260 you're within
00:52:22.780 the reasonable zone, right?
00:52:24.500 Reasonable people
00:52:25.340 can disagree on
00:52:26.380 rape and incest.
00:52:27.660 They could disagree.
00:52:31.340 But you wouldn't say
00:52:32.620 the other side is crazy.
00:52:34.660 That's just a disagreement,
00:52:36.400 right?
00:52:36.940 So that's okay.
00:52:39.020 You know,
00:52:39.260 people disagree.
00:52:40.300 But I love his framing
00:52:42.440 that he wants a situation
00:52:44.000 that's negotiated,
00:52:45.920 negotiated by the people
00:52:47.280 who are closest
00:52:47.880 to the individual.
00:52:49.360 He doesn't say it that way,
00:52:50.420 but he's inferring that.
00:52:52.080 And that he wants
00:52:54.380 them to be happy.
00:52:55.260 I love that.
00:52:58.060 I love that
00:52:58.900 as a presidential framing.
00:53:01.720 I want you to be happy
00:53:02.920 with the decision.
00:53:04.100 You're not trying
00:53:04.740 to make me happy.
00:53:06.340 Isn't that great?
00:53:07.820 You're not trying
00:53:08.640 to make me happy
00:53:09.300 about abortion.
00:53:10.320 I'm not having
00:53:10.880 any abortions.
00:53:12.460 Yeah?
00:53:13.480 He's saying,
00:53:14.260 my job is to make you
00:53:15.580 happy with the result.
00:53:17.140 I love that.
00:53:18.200 That's so good.
00:53:19.700 And that it would
00:53:20.860 be negotiated,
00:53:21.980 and that he's removed
00:53:23.440 the only limitation
00:53:24.480 to that negotiation
00:53:25.480 happening.
00:53:26.980 That is really
00:53:27.840 good framing.
00:53:29.200 It's as good
00:53:29.800 as you can do.
00:53:31.200 Who knows
00:53:31.860 if it's enough?
00:53:32.640 But it's as good
00:53:33.160 as you can do
00:53:33.660 on that question.
00:53:35.760 I haven't seen
00:53:36.200 anybody do it better.
00:53:36.860 And then he talks
00:53:41.500 about all those
00:53:42.020 documents.
00:53:44.940 When he talks
00:53:45.820 about document gate,
00:53:47.520 he just throws
00:53:48.420 so much bullshit
00:53:49.520 into the conversation
00:53:50.540 that the viewer
00:53:51.660 has no idea
00:53:52.620 if he did anything
00:53:54.200 wrong or right.
00:53:55.500 And there's this
00:53:56.260 nuance of,
00:53:57.620 well,
00:53:58.060 he tried to,
00:53:59.360 maybe he tried
00:54:00.140 to resist
00:54:00.540 giving them back,
00:54:01.920 but he says
00:54:02.620 he was negotiating,
00:54:04.420 and maybe it's
00:54:05.400 the same as Biden,
00:54:06.160 but maybe it's
00:54:07.000 not the same
00:54:07.600 because Biden,
00:54:09.060 you know,
00:54:09.440 blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
00:54:10.500 And then he says
00:54:11.380 that all of his
00:54:12.860 documents were
00:54:13.760 declassified.
00:54:15.640 And then CNN
00:54:16.320 fact checks them
00:54:17.660 and says,
00:54:18.140 no, there was
00:54:18.500 no process
00:54:19.320 by which you
00:54:20.920 declassify them.
00:54:22.640 Is that a good
00:54:23.220 fact check?
00:54:24.580 So Trump says
00:54:25.420 they were declassified,
00:54:27.460 and CNN says,
00:54:29.140 no,
00:54:29.780 there was no
00:54:30.680 action taken,
00:54:32.720 so the lack
00:54:34.260 of action taken
00:54:35.180 shows they were
00:54:35.720 not declassified.
00:54:37.900 So here's the
00:54:38.780 correct answer.
00:54:41.300 The correct answer
00:54:42.300 is that the law
00:54:43.200 does not specify
00:54:44.220 a process.
00:54:45.900 And that means
00:54:46.440 the process is
00:54:47.220 whatever the
00:54:47.700 president says it
00:54:48.500 is.
00:54:49.620 And he said
00:54:50.500 the process was,
00:54:51.460 if I take it
00:54:51.920 out of the White
00:54:52.380 House,
00:54:52.840 it's declassified.
00:54:55.160 You're done.
00:54:57.300 I think the
00:54:58.140 fact check is
00:54:58.800 completely wrong
00:54:59.600 on this.
00:55:00.620 If there's no
00:55:01.480 process,
00:55:02.740 the process is
00:55:03.740 whatever the
00:55:04.280 president says
00:55:04.940 it is,
00:55:05.580 and he said
00:55:06.160 that was the
00:55:06.620 process.
00:55:07.700 If I remove
00:55:08.740 it, it's
00:55:09.080 declassified.
00:55:10.640 That should be
00:55:11.440 the end of the
00:55:11.980 story.
00:55:12.940 Of course,
00:55:13.880 it won't be.
00:55:14.620 But he did a
00:55:15.120 good job on
00:55:15.720 just confusing
00:55:16.440 the issue by
00:55:17.220 blaming everybody
00:55:17.980 else.
00:55:19.280 All right.
00:55:21.800 Now, he was
00:55:22.580 asked about,
00:55:23.180 you know,
00:55:23.420 January 6th,
00:55:24.180 he said he
00:55:24.540 would pardon,
00:55:26.240 he's leaning
00:55:27.820 toward pardoning
00:55:29.020 some substantial
00:55:30.020 amount of the
00:55:30.620 January 6th people,
00:55:31.560 but not all
00:55:32.540 of them because
00:55:33.100 they might have
00:55:33.580 been actually
00:55:34.340 violent.
00:55:35.460 CNN fact-checks
00:55:36.400 that by saying
00:55:37.220 that there were
00:55:38.200 hundreds of
00:55:38.760 violent people,
00:55:40.100 and they stop
00:55:41.320 short of saying
00:55:42.000 that only violent
00:55:43.020 people are being
00:55:43.680 held.
00:55:44.800 And that's really
00:55:45.340 the question,
00:55:45.980 isn't it?
00:55:46.840 So the fact-check
00:55:47.700 looked illegitimate
00:55:48.700 to me,
00:55:49.920 because a correct
00:55:50.540 fact-check would
00:55:51.260 say, well,
00:55:51.780 he says not the
00:55:52.920 violent ones,
00:55:54.400 but here's how
00:55:55.040 many were violent
00:55:55.780 and here's how
00:55:56.380 many were not.
00:55:58.020 That would be
00:55:58.800 the fact-check.
00:56:00.340 Not many people
00:56:01.880 were violent.
00:56:03.460 That's not a
00:56:04.080 fact-check.
00:56:04.560 That's propaganda.
00:56:09.100 But apparently
00:56:10.380 Congressperson
00:56:13.160 Byron Donalds
00:56:15.220 was on CNN
00:56:17.540 in a panel
00:56:18.220 discussion,
00:56:19.240 and I heard
00:56:20.100 really good things
00:56:21.140 about his,
00:56:23.140 I'll call it
00:56:24.300 a performance
00:56:24.800 as well.
00:56:25.500 And I've seen
00:56:25.980 a little bit
00:56:26.500 of Byron Donalds,
00:56:27.720 and I like
00:56:28.360 him a lot.
00:56:29.080 He's really
00:56:29.500 good.
00:56:30.700 He's a good
00:56:31.200 speaker.
00:56:33.520 And this,
00:56:36.080 what he said
00:56:36.860 further in a
00:56:38.740 tweet,
00:56:39.120 further shows
00:56:40.140 me that he's
00:56:40.660 the real deal.
00:56:41.760 So I would
00:56:42.260 keep an eye
00:56:42.740 on Byron
00:56:43.260 Donalds.
00:56:44.340 I feel like
00:56:44.820 he's a rising
00:56:45.460 star in the
00:56:46.880 Republican Party.
00:56:48.280 But here's
00:56:48.780 what he said
00:56:49.220 in a tweet.
00:56:49.740 He said,
00:56:50.060 the American
00:56:50.420 people aren't
00:56:51.120 speaking about
00:56:51.820 the 2020
00:56:52.420 election,
00:56:53.600 a libel case
00:56:54.560 after 25 years,
00:56:56.300 or January 6.
00:56:57.720 and I
00:56:59.600 thought to
00:56:59.920 myself,
00:57:01.060 well,
00:57:01.820 that's perfect.
00:57:03.280 That is true.
00:57:04.500 Those are the
00:57:05.180 three least
00:57:05.840 important things.
00:57:07.380 We've kind of
00:57:08.100 moved on.
00:57:09.340 We're sort of
00:57:10.120 talking about
00:57:10.700 what can you
00:57:11.240 do for us
00:57:11.740 in the future,
00:57:12.780 and we're
00:57:13.280 kind of over
00:57:13.960 the election,
00:57:14.620 we're kind of
00:57:15.080 over E.G.
00:57:15.840 and Carroll,
00:57:16.440 and we're
00:57:17.080 kind of over
00:57:18.080 anything in the
00:57:19.900 past,
00:57:20.260 January 6.
00:57:20.860 And I
00:57:22.280 love the
00:57:22.680 fact that
00:57:23.480 a representative
00:57:24.520 of the
00:57:25.680 Republicans
00:57:26.120 would talk
00:57:28.040 about the
00:57:28.500 future
00:57:28.940 and say,
00:57:31.480 stop obsessing
00:57:32.060 about the
00:57:32.460 past.
00:57:34.180 Because that
00:57:35.320 is a really
00:57:36.220 good Republican
00:57:37.340 view for
00:57:38.540 everything.
00:57:40.060 That the
00:57:40.720 rest of the
00:57:41.160 Republican Party,
00:57:42.060 and Trump
00:57:42.400 himself,
00:57:43.480 should take
00:57:44.100 the lead
00:57:46.060 of Byron
00:57:47.360 Donalds.
00:57:48.740 Because by
00:57:49.580 minimizing the
00:57:50.500 past and
00:57:51.280 saying,
00:57:51.820 we've got
00:57:52.440 future problems,
00:57:54.140 and we've
00:57:54.480 got current
00:57:54.980 problems,
00:57:55.540 how about we
00:57:55.900 talk about
00:57:56.340 those?
00:57:57.300 You can't
00:57:57.940 get a better
00:57:58.580 high ground
00:57:59.060 than that.
00:58:00.160 That's the
00:58:00.540 ultimate high
00:58:01.080 ground.
00:58:01.980 Forget about
00:58:02.460 the past,
00:58:03.620 let's work
00:58:04.120 together in
00:58:04.540 the future.
00:58:05.540 So,
00:58:05.960 very strong,
00:58:06.840 very strong
00:58:07.480 from Byron
00:58:08.460 Donalds.
00:58:10.560 Here's CNN
00:58:11.320 with its
00:58:11.760 fact checks
00:58:12.340 that made
00:58:12.700 me laugh.
00:58:13.840 The first
00:58:14.240 one's a
00:58:14.660 mind-reading
00:58:15.340 fact check.
00:58:17.360 On the
00:58:18.260 question of
00:58:18.980 strict voter
00:58:20.220 ID laws.
00:58:21.380 And so
00:58:21.620 they say,
00:58:23.000 it is true
00:58:23.860 that most
00:58:24.200 Democrats have
00:58:24.940 been against
00:58:25.660 stricter voter
00:58:26.640 ID laws in
00:58:27.420 the past,
00:58:28.440 but on
00:58:29.740 grounds that
00:58:30.340 these laws
00:58:30.920 could disenfranch
00:58:31.820 voters who
00:58:33.080 may not have
00:58:33.900 access to
00:58:34.460 necessary
00:58:34.880 identification,
00:58:36.100 not in
00:58:36.700 order to
00:58:37.120 illegally
00:58:37.580 obtain votes.
00:58:39.580 So this
00:58:40.000 is a CNN
00:58:40.800 fact check
00:58:41.560 in which
00:58:42.640 they're using
00:58:44.100 as their
00:58:44.520 fact their
00:58:45.880 ability to
00:58:46.580 read the
00:58:47.120 minds of
00:58:48.660 the people
00:58:49.120 who didn't
00:58:51.600 want stricter
00:58:52.260 voter ID
00:58:52.800 laws.
00:58:53.480 And they
00:58:53.700 can read
00:58:54.040 the mind
00:58:54.420 and they
00:58:54.720 know that
00:58:55.000 what's in
00:58:55.360 there,
00:58:56.380 okay,
00:58:56.840 I'm picking
00:58:57.140 up now,
00:58:58.280 is no,
00:58:58.760 they actually
00:58:59.300 are honest
00:58:59.760 people who
00:59:00.240 just want
00:59:00.820 to,
00:59:01.340 what,
00:59:02.100 make sure
00:59:02.580 that voters
00:59:04.020 are not
00:59:04.400 disenfranchised.
00:59:05.540 It has
00:59:06.020 nothing to
00:59:06.500 do with
00:59:06.740 the fact
00:59:07.120 that it
00:59:07.740 would almost
00:59:08.180 certainly
00:59:08.640 give you
00:59:09.120 more
00:59:09.360 Democrat
00:59:09.720 votes.
00:59:11.060 We're
00:59:11.440 looking for
00:59:11.880 that in
00:59:12.200 their minds.
00:59:13.280 Nothing.
00:59:13.800 Nothing there.
00:59:14.340 So they
00:59:15.480 actually did
00:59:16.020 a mind
00:59:16.880 reading fact
00:59:17.980 check.
00:59:19.440 How many
00:59:20.080 people
00:59:20.320 noticed?
00:59:22.480 Yeah,
00:59:22.820 how many
00:59:23.200 of their
00:59:23.460 readers read
00:59:24.080 that and
00:59:24.400 said,
00:59:25.340 well,
00:59:25.940 you don't
00:59:26.400 know what
00:59:26.720 people are
00:59:27.100 thinking.
00:59:29.300 Once you
00:59:29.920 see that
00:59:30.440 model that
00:59:31.260 people are
00:59:31.640 mind reading,
00:59:32.320 then you see
00:59:32.700 it everywhere.
00:59:33.500 But until
00:59:33.880 you see it,
00:59:34.840 you just read
00:59:35.440 that and go,
00:59:35.900 oh,
00:59:36.120 okay.
00:59:38.500 All right,
00:59:39.380 here's another
00:59:40.460 fact check.
00:59:41.020 Republicans
00:59:42.780 have argued,
00:59:45.560 oh,
00:59:45.860 talking about
00:59:46.980 the letter
00:59:48.180 that the
00:59:48.540 50 prior
00:59:49.740 Intel people
00:59:50.480 signed about
00:59:51.140 the Hunter
00:59:51.720 laptop,
00:59:53.000 the fact
00:59:53.360 check.
00:59:53.880 So Trump
00:59:55.240 said that
00:59:55.800 the lying
00:59:58.780 letter that
00:59:59.480 said the
01:00:00.100 laptop was
01:00:01.120 Russian
01:00:01.540 disinformation,
01:00:02.820 he said it
01:00:03.380 cost them
01:00:03.800 the election,
01:00:04.980 that it
01:00:05.460 changed votes.
01:00:07.180 The CNN
01:00:07.940 fact checks
01:00:08.580 them and
01:00:08.940 says,
01:00:09.580 Republicans have
01:00:10.400 argued that
01:00:10.980 the letter
01:00:11.380 helped discredit
01:00:12.260 negative stories
01:00:13.120 about the
01:00:13.540 Biden family
01:00:14.080 just before
01:00:14.640 the election.
01:00:15.480 But there's
01:00:16.120 also no
01:00:16.860 proof that
01:00:17.560 the letter
01:00:17.920 swayed the
01:00:18.440 outcome of
01:00:18.940 the election.
01:00:20.460 There's no
01:00:21.160 proof.
01:00:23.840 Was there
01:00:24.660 not a
01:00:25.220 national poll
01:00:26.060 that said
01:00:26.840 that 17%
01:00:27.820 of people
01:00:28.260 would have
01:00:28.540 voted
01:00:28.740 differently?
01:00:30.480 Now,
01:00:31.080 would you
01:00:31.360 call a
01:00:31.940 poll
01:00:32.380 proof?
01:00:34.720 No.
01:00:35.780 No,
01:00:36.040 a poll is
01:00:36.500 not proof.
01:00:38.020 How can
01:00:38.580 you prove
01:00:38.940 the past?
01:00:39.460 It's an
01:00:41.180 unprovable
01:00:41.820 situation by
01:00:42.740 its nature.
01:00:44.180 You can't
01:00:44.660 prove what
01:00:46.540 would have
01:00:46.860 happened if
01:00:47.340 something else
01:00:47.840 had happened
01:00:48.260 in the past.
01:00:49.460 You can't
01:00:50.060 prove the
01:00:50.480 past.
01:00:51.660 You might
01:00:52.320 be able to
01:00:52.720 prove the
01:00:53.080 future.
01:00:54.460 Like, say,
01:00:55.180 if this
01:00:55.600 happens,
01:00:56.180 set up a
01:00:57.540 controlled
01:00:58.020 experiment or
01:00:58.840 something.
01:00:59.460 But you
01:00:59.820 can't prove
01:01:00.240 the past
01:01:00.820 that if
01:01:02.600 something else
01:01:03.140 had happened,
01:01:03.620 something else
01:01:04.060 would have
01:01:04.280 happened.
01:01:05.240 That's not a
01:01:05.820 real thing.
01:01:07.040 And for
01:01:07.400 them to
01:01:07.760 ignore the
01:01:08.240 fact that
01:01:08.640 there was
01:01:08.900 a poll
01:01:09.360 where people
01:01:10.340 actually said
01:01:10.960 they would
01:01:11.380 have voted
01:01:11.720 differently.
01:01:12.680 Now, I
01:01:13.180 don't believe
01:01:13.540 the poll.
01:01:15.120 I don't
01:01:15.500 believe that
01:01:15.940 poll.
01:01:16.500 I do not
01:01:17.120 believe 17%
01:01:18.220 would have
01:01:18.620 voted differently
01:01:19.200 because of
01:01:19.700 that one thing.
01:01:21.060 By then,
01:01:21.840 people were
01:01:22.300 pretty locked
01:01:22.880 in.
01:01:23.840 Now, if
01:01:24.320 CNN had said
01:01:25.080 that, that
01:01:26.860 would have
01:01:27.060 been a good
01:01:27.460 fact check.
01:01:28.500 If they
01:01:29.040 said, so
01:01:30.320 close to the
01:01:30.920 election, people
01:01:31.560 don't really
01:01:32.000 change their
01:01:32.500 mind, I
01:01:34.280 would have
01:01:34.560 accepted that.
01:01:35.740 But to
01:01:36.100 say there's
01:01:36.520 no proof and
01:01:37.360 therefore it
01:01:38.200 could be
01:01:38.540 dismissed,
01:01:39.700 that's
01:01:40.620 propaganda.
01:01:42.000 You have
01:01:42.460 to at least
01:01:42.840 mention the
01:01:43.680 poll.
01:01:44.200 Even if
01:01:44.560 you're
01:01:44.720 dismissing
01:01:45.280 it, you
01:01:46.000 have to
01:01:46.220 mention it.
01:01:48.660 All right.
01:01:50.720 Here's one
01:01:51.480 that really
01:01:52.320 surprised me
01:01:53.820 but answered
01:01:54.260 a big
01:01:54.520 question.
01:01:55.600 So, Trump
01:01:56.140 tried to
01:01:56.580 blame then
01:01:57.700 House
01:01:58.100 Speaker
01:01:58.420 Nancy
01:01:58.780 Pelosi for
01:02:00.400 not accepting
01:02:01.480 more security
01:02:03.820 security during
01:02:04.980 January 6th.
01:02:06.280 So, he
01:02:06.980 says that
01:02:07.400 Nancy Pelosi
01:02:07.980 was in
01:02:08.540 charge of
01:02:08.940 security and
01:02:10.120 didn't do a
01:02:10.520 good job and
01:02:11.100 that's partly
01:02:11.900 why January 6th
01:02:12.900 went bad.
01:02:14.480 Now, he got
01:02:15.560 fact-checked
01:02:16.280 because Nancy
01:02:17.000 Pelosi was
01:02:17.740 in fact not
01:02:18.380 in charge.
01:02:20.080 Did you know
01:02:20.580 that?
01:02:21.760 Nancy Pelosi
01:02:22.380 was not in
01:02:23.560 charge of
01:02:24.320 security.
01:02:25.440 Here's who
01:02:25.900 was.
01:02:27.460 This is the
01:02:28.260 first time I've
01:02:28.980 ever heard
01:02:29.300 this.
01:02:30.800 I'm sure it's
01:02:31.320 better than the
01:02:31.680 news, so that's
01:02:32.760 on me, but
01:02:34.460 this is the
01:02:36.820 fact-check
01:02:37.240 on CNN.
01:02:37.800 The Speaker
01:02:38.140 of the House
01:02:38.460 is not in
01:02:39.060 charge of
01:02:39.520 the Capitol
01:02:39.900 security.
01:02:40.940 Who is in
01:02:41.600 charge is the
01:02:42.420 Capitol Police
01:02:43.440 Board.
01:02:45.300 So, that's
01:02:45.900 who was in
01:02:46.280 charge, the
01:02:46.720 Capitol Police
01:02:47.520 Board.
01:02:49.540 What was
01:02:50.120 that?
01:02:51.540 Do they have
01:02:52.200 a boss?
01:02:54.300 Isn't that the
01:02:54.860 question you
01:02:55.220 asked?
01:02:55.400 Well, let me
01:02:55.800 answer that.
01:02:56.500 The Capitol
01:02:57.040 Police Board
01:02:57.740 is made up
01:02:59.280 of the,
01:03:00.180 it's a body
01:03:01.600 that governs
01:03:02.260 the United
01:03:02.600 States Capitol
01:03:03.200 Police, so
01:03:04.440 they're in
01:03:04.720 charge of the
01:03:05.100 Capitol Police,
01:03:05.860 and it
01:03:06.980 consists of
01:03:07.660 three voting
01:03:08.420 members.
01:03:10.100 The Sergeant
01:03:10.680 at Arms of
01:03:11.340 the United
01:03:11.640 States House
01:03:12.180 of Representatives,
01:03:13.560 the Sergeant
01:03:14.120 at Arms of
01:03:14.860 the United
01:03:15.200 States Senate,
01:03:16.460 and the
01:03:16.960 Architect of
01:03:17.740 the Capitol.
01:03:19.600 The Architect
01:03:20.480 of the Capitol.
01:03:23.140 What the hell
01:03:23.940 is that?
01:03:25.300 What's the
01:03:25.920 Architect of
01:03:26.520 the Capitol?
01:03:27.960 And, you
01:03:29.000 know, the
01:03:29.240 Sergeant at
01:03:29.760 Arms of the
01:03:30.480 Senate, and
01:03:32.280 also the
01:03:32.660 House.
01:03:33.140 I assume
01:03:33.620 that they're
01:03:33.960 just like
01:03:34.420 head of
01:03:34.760 security,
01:03:36.160 basically.
01:03:37.000 So the
01:03:37.280 head of
01:03:37.560 security for
01:03:38.200 the Senate,
01:03:38.800 the head of
01:03:39.120 security for
01:03:39.620 the House,
01:03:40.520 and then
01:03:41.140 some architect?
01:03:43.860 The
01:03:44.300 architect of
01:03:44.920 the Capitol?
01:03:46.180 What?
01:03:47.540 Now, don't
01:03:48.080 you think that
01:03:48.680 this explanation
01:03:49.700 that I had to
01:03:50.720 Google, do
01:03:51.920 you think that
01:03:52.680 it shouldn't
01:03:53.120 maybe explain
01:03:53.880 who the
01:03:54.220 architect of
01:03:54.820 the Capitol
01:03:55.200 is?
01:03:56.140 Does anybody
01:03:56.620 know?
01:03:57.940 Is that some
01:03:58.820 administrative job?
01:03:59.760 All right.
01:04:03.620 So, now
01:04:04.700 imagine this.
01:04:07.180 So imagine
01:04:08.000 that you
01:04:08.320 need to
01:04:10.080 quickly add
01:04:11.200 some security
01:04:11.980 to the
01:04:13.360 Capitol
01:04:13.620 building.
01:04:14.560 You need
01:04:15.220 to quickly
01:04:15.820 add some
01:04:16.420 security.
01:04:17.600 But you
01:04:18.000 can't do
01:04:18.420 anything until
01:04:19.700 you got the
01:04:21.060 architect of
01:04:21.820 the Capitol
01:04:22.240 and then
01:04:22.940 these two
01:04:24.040 sergeant-at-arms
01:04:25.020 together.
01:04:26.320 It was a
01:04:27.040 committee.
01:04:28.220 That explains
01:04:29.260 everything.
01:04:31.100 The reason
01:04:31.860 there was
01:04:32.200 no quick
01:04:33.160 security
01:04:33.820 during January
01:04:34.800 6th is
01:04:35.840 that who
01:04:36.620 was in
01:04:36.960 charge was
01:04:37.420 a committee
01:04:37.880 of people
01:04:38.340 that nobody
01:04:38.820 knew.
01:04:40.100 It was a
01:04:40.540 committee of
01:04:41.020 strangers.
01:04:43.120 Have you
01:04:43.720 ever seen
01:04:44.080 an interview
01:04:44.540 with any
01:04:45.020 of those
01:04:45.320 three characters?
01:04:47.200 Has CNN
01:04:48.000 ever interviewed
01:04:48.700 the architect
01:04:49.520 of the
01:04:49.940 Capitol?
01:04:50.940 They asked
01:04:51.300 why the
01:04:51.700 architect of
01:04:52.600 the Capitol
01:04:53.060 didn't agree
01:04:54.400 to more
01:04:54.720 security?
01:04:57.440 Architect of
01:04:58.340 the Capitol
01:04:58.700 is the
01:04:59.220 facilities
01:04:59.720 manager,
01:05:00.360 you say.
01:05:02.580 Now,
01:05:03.440 the architect
01:05:03.940 is under
01:05:04.620 Pelosi's
01:05:05.520 direction,
01:05:06.940 maybe,
01:05:09.420 and Pelosi
01:05:10.600 is the one
01:05:11.120 who nominates
01:05:11.860 the sergeant-at-arms
01:05:13.660 for the
01:05:14.260 house.
01:05:15.460 So Pelosi
01:05:16.080 had sway
01:05:17.200 with those
01:05:18.820 three individuals,
01:05:19.700 but it was a
01:05:20.360 committee.
01:05:21.400 That explains
01:05:22.280 everything,
01:05:23.740 doesn't it?
01:05:24.740 If I told you
01:05:25.700 that security
01:05:26.620 did not come
01:05:27.420 quickly when
01:05:28.000 they should,
01:05:28.540 obviously should
01:05:29.360 have,
01:05:30.620 and then I
01:05:31.080 say, oh,
01:05:31.560 it was a
01:05:31.880 committee decision,
01:05:33.200 aren't you
01:05:33.540 done?
01:05:34.560 That would
01:05:34.880 explain the
01:05:35.320 whole thing.
01:05:35.880 It was just
01:05:36.260 a fucking
01:05:36.600 committee.
01:05:37.500 So they
01:05:37.780 basically
01:05:38.620 didn't have
01:05:39.440 the right
01:05:39.840 management
01:05:40.320 structure to
01:05:40.980 get anything
01:05:41.360 done quickly.
01:05:43.440 Just didn't
01:05:44.080 have the
01:05:44.360 structure.
01:05:47.460 It is,
01:05:48.300 however,
01:05:48.620 true that if
01:05:50.060 Pelosi had
01:05:50.820 talked to
01:05:51.260 any one
01:05:51.800 of those
01:05:52.100 people and
01:05:52.740 told them
01:05:53.200 to do it,
01:05:53.720 they would
01:05:54.000 have done
01:05:54.300 it.
01:05:55.720 Do you
01:05:56.280 agree?
01:05:57.740 If Pelosi
01:05:58.540 had said to
01:05:59.160 any one of
01:05:59.800 those three
01:06:00.260 people,
01:06:00.820 even the
01:06:01.540 Senate one,
01:06:02.060 which he
01:06:02.320 had no
01:06:02.680 sway over,
01:06:03.960 just call
01:06:04.720 them up and
01:06:05.180 say, we
01:06:06.080 need security
01:06:07.260 fucking now.
01:06:10.960 They're not
01:06:11.580 going to say
01:06:11.940 we're going
01:06:12.280 to talk about
01:06:12.880 it, we'll
01:06:13.700 get back to
01:06:14.220 you.
01:06:14.960 They're going
01:06:15.500 to give her
01:06:15.860 her security.
01:06:17.120 Because they
01:06:17.540 can't face
01:06:18.960 her after
01:06:19.440 that, can
01:06:20.060 they?
01:06:20.680 Imagine
01:06:21.100 having to
01:06:21.560 face her
01:06:21.980 after they
01:06:22.440 said no.
01:06:24.500 So I
01:06:25.180 think Trump
01:06:25.680 was right
01:06:26.440 in, he's
01:06:28.500 emotionally
01:06:28.900 right.
01:06:30.540 He's not
01:06:31.220 technically
01:06:31.700 right, that
01:06:32.700 Nancy Pelosi
01:06:33.320 was in
01:06:33.800 charge, but
01:06:34.640 doesn't he
01:06:35.100 feel right?
01:06:36.540 It feels
01:06:37.040 like he's
01:06:37.480 right, doesn't
01:06:37.960 it?
01:06:38.900 Even though
01:06:39.420 technically he
01:06:40.220 wasn't.
01:06:41.180 So he
01:06:41.960 does a
01:06:42.540 brilliant job
01:06:43.760 of feeling
01:06:45.020 right when
01:06:45.840 he's technically
01:06:46.460 wrong.
01:06:46.900 and I
01:06:48.420 don't even
01:06:48.840 criticize that
01:06:49.660 because the
01:06:50.780 way you
01:06:51.060 feel is a
01:06:51.800 big part of
01:06:52.260 the whole
01:06:52.580 deal.
01:06:54.360 All right.
01:06:56.700 Let's see.
01:06:58.680 Asked about,
01:06:59.840 he also talks
01:07:00.740 about his
01:07:01.060 perfect phone
01:07:01.860 call with
01:07:03.060 Brad
01:07:03.460 Rafsenberger
01:07:04.120 about the
01:07:04.660 finding the
01:07:05.380 votes.
01:07:06.500 And here's
01:07:08.780 how they
01:07:09.040 fact-check
01:07:09.480 that.
01:07:10.500 So of
01:07:11.040 course he
01:07:11.500 said, I
01:07:12.620 wasn't trying
01:07:13.220 to tell you
01:07:13.980 to make up
01:07:14.740 votes.
01:07:15.100 of course
01:07:16.120 he said
01:07:16.620 that he
01:07:17.940 thought the
01:07:18.360 election was
01:07:18.820 rigged and
01:07:19.940 that there
01:07:21.020 would be
01:07:21.320 legal uncounted
01:07:22.440 votes if
01:07:23.160 he just
01:07:23.460 looked for
01:07:23.800 them.
01:07:25.500 Now that's
01:07:26.060 exactly,
01:07:27.280 obviously,
01:07:27.840 what he was
01:07:28.180 thinking,
01:07:28.700 obviously,
01:07:29.220 what he was
01:07:29.520 asking for,
01:07:30.380 and obviously
01:07:31.060 that was the
01:07:31.580 right defense.
01:07:33.300 But here's
01:07:34.480 what CNN
01:07:35.620 says.
01:07:36.140 It's a
01:07:36.480 brazenly
01:07:37.040 false claim.
01:07:40.200 I didn't
01:07:41.120 ask them to
01:07:41.700 find anything.
01:07:43.500 That is a
01:07:43.980 brazenly false
01:07:44.660 claim.
01:07:45.120 CNN and
01:07:45.760 other
01:07:45.980 organizations
01:07:46.560 obtained
01:07:47.060 recordings of
01:07:47.900 the call,
01:07:48.700 in which
01:07:49.060 Trump repeatedly
01:07:49.920 suggests that
01:07:51.400 Georgia election
01:07:52.040 figures should
01:07:53.760 be able to
01:07:54.440 find thousands
01:07:55.540 of votes and
01:07:56.280 fraudulent
01:07:56.780 ballots.
01:07:58.060 Specifically,
01:07:58.760 Trump said,
01:07:59.560 I just want
01:08:00.100 to find
01:08:00.600 blah,
01:08:01.060 blah,
01:08:01.200 blah.
01:08:02.180 Now,
01:08:03.820 so do you
01:08:05.180 catch what's
01:08:05.600 going on here?
01:08:06.820 So CNN and
01:08:08.000 others have
01:08:08.460 been accusing
01:08:08.960 him of telling
01:08:10.260 Razenberger to
01:08:12.060 invent or
01:08:13.040 cheat.
01:08:13.380 that's been
01:08:14.580 the claim all
01:08:15.580 along is
01:08:16.800 that Razenberger
01:08:17.640 was being
01:08:19.040 asked to
01:08:19.580 cheat,
01:08:20.440 although the
01:08:22.320 word was
01:08:22.820 fined.
01:08:24.000 So Trump
01:08:24.980 made the
01:08:25.760 verbal mistake
01:08:27.220 of saying I
01:08:27.920 didn't ask them
01:08:28.700 to find
01:08:29.160 anything when
01:08:30.460 he had used
01:08:31.060 the exact
01:08:31.580 word find.
01:08:32.280 but once he
01:08:34.300 explained the
01:08:35.040 find means
01:08:36.160 to see if
01:08:37.440 there were
01:08:37.620 any uncounted
01:08:38.540 legal votes,
01:08:40.540 that should
01:08:41.440 be the end
01:08:41.860 of it,
01:08:42.100 right?
01:08:43.400 But instead,
01:08:44.900 once they'd
01:08:45.540 been completely
01:08:46.220 debunked for
01:08:47.080 what they'd
01:08:47.440 been saying
01:08:47.840 forever,
01:08:49.340 forever CNN
01:08:50.800 has been saying
01:08:51.600 that he was
01:08:52.620 asking them to
01:08:53.300 do something
01:08:53.780 illegal,
01:08:54.720 as soon as he
01:08:55.620 clearly explains
01:08:56.900 that no,
01:08:57.780 it was in the
01:08:59.700 context of
01:09:00.280 thinking that
01:09:00.780 they hadn't
01:09:01.120 counted it
01:09:01.580 right.
01:09:03.340 Because there's
01:09:04.120 no answer to
01:09:05.080 that.
01:09:05.380 Once he says
01:09:06.040 obviously,
01:09:07.840 this whole
01:09:08.800 conversation is
01:09:09.660 because you
01:09:10.300 believe that I
01:09:11.800 believe it was
01:09:12.520 rigged,
01:09:14.240 right?
01:09:14.780 The whole
01:09:15.420 context is
01:09:16.140 CNN believes
01:09:17.080 that Trump
01:09:18.320 believes,
01:09:19.120 correctly,
01:09:20.220 they correctly
01:09:21.240 believe that he
01:09:21.900 believes it was
01:09:22.660 rigged.
01:09:23.880 So in that
01:09:24.580 context,
01:09:25.180 when he says
01:09:25.600 find votes,
01:09:26.500 it's obvious
01:09:27.080 he means
01:09:27.640 uncounted
01:09:28.980 legal votes.
01:09:30.460 It's obvious.
01:09:31.580 So they had
01:09:32.100 to abandon
01:09:32.640 that as
01:09:33.540 soon as he
01:09:34.040 was there
01:09:34.540 in person
01:09:35.000 to debate
01:09:35.640 it.
01:09:36.860 And the
01:09:37.160 way they
01:09:37.460 abandoned it
01:09:38.060 was to
01:09:38.440 call a
01:09:38.760 fact check
01:09:39.280 on him
01:09:40.580 saying he
01:09:41.060 didn't ask
01:09:41.480 them to
01:09:41.800 find anything.
01:09:43.220 But they
01:09:43.780 had said so
01:09:44.440 many times
01:09:45.060 that he had
01:09:46.100 asked them
01:09:46.520 to invent
01:09:47.360 votes.
01:09:48.640 I think he
01:09:49.180 thought he
01:09:49.520 was denying
01:09:50.120 the invent
01:09:50.700 votes,
01:09:51.880 but he
01:09:52.160 used the
01:09:52.460 word find.
01:09:53.640 So I
01:09:54.060 think he
01:09:54.280 just misspoke.
01:09:54.940 And then
01:09:56.020 they had
01:09:56.360 to fact
01:09:56.820 check
01:09:57.140 the
01:09:58.140 misspeaking
01:09:58.820 because they
01:10:00.060 could no
01:10:00.400 longer fact
01:10:01.020 check the
01:10:01.920 central claim.
01:10:03.820 That was a
01:10:04.520 clever move.
01:10:07.100 All right.
01:10:08.560 Trump claimed
01:10:09.460 that the U.S.
01:10:10.020 has provided
01:10:10.520 $171 billion
01:10:11.580 to Ukraine,
01:10:12.500 but that the
01:10:13.120 European Union
01:10:13.800 only gave
01:10:14.380 $20.
01:10:15.080 So they
01:10:15.740 fact checked
01:10:16.220 that and
01:10:16.580 they said
01:10:16.820 both assertions
01:10:17.880 are false.
01:10:19.040 No.
01:10:19.280 No.
01:10:21.460 I'm sorry.
01:10:22.100 You think
01:10:23.260 that U.S.
01:10:24.780 gave $171
01:10:25.860 billion and
01:10:26.820 the European
01:10:27.740 Union only
01:10:28.420 $20 billion?
01:10:29.180 I'm sorry.
01:10:30.180 Both claims
01:10:31.000 false.
01:10:32.200 Here's what's
01:10:32.860 true, according
01:10:33.440 to CNN.
01:10:35.880 The European
01:10:36.840 Union has
01:10:37.440 provided $37
01:10:38.840 billion.
01:10:42.960 Where's the
01:10:43.820 other part?
01:10:45.360 Both claims
01:10:46.500 are false.
01:10:49.260 Oh, the
01:10:50.160 other claim
01:10:50.580 is that we
01:10:50.960 don't have
01:10:51.260 enough
01:10:51.480 ammunition.
01:10:52.100 So Trump
01:10:55.260 said we
01:10:55.720 don't have
01:10:56.260 ammunition for
01:10:57.160 ourselves right
01:10:57.880 now.
01:10:59.420 And they
01:11:00.140 fact check
01:11:00.640 it because
01:11:01.380 we still
01:11:01.920 have some
01:11:02.600 ammunition for
01:11:03.400 ourselves.
01:11:05.460 Did you
01:11:06.100 catch that?
01:11:07.520 Trump said
01:11:08.160 we don't
01:11:09.060 have ammunition
01:11:09.740 for ourselves.
01:11:10.940 They said
01:11:11.400 that's false.
01:11:12.460 We have
01:11:12.920 some ammunition
01:11:13.860 for ourselves,
01:11:14.880 but neither
01:11:16.420 of them said
01:11:16.920 how much.
01:11:18.580 Those are
01:11:19.240 both the
01:11:19.620 same statement.
01:11:20.320 how many
01:11:22.600 times have
01:11:23.100 I had to
01:11:23.500 teach you
01:11:24.060 that nobody
01:11:25.700 ever means
01:11:26.480 everybody.
01:11:28.100 It's never
01:11:28.640 an absolute.
01:11:30.760 The country
01:11:31.580 is running
01:11:31.980 out of oil.
01:11:33.600 No, that
01:11:33.940 still means we
01:11:34.480 have oil
01:11:34.840 left.
01:11:35.480 The population
01:11:37.200 is declining.
01:11:39.060 No, there's
01:11:39.480 still some
01:11:39.920 people alive.
01:11:40.720 There's a
01:11:45.900 high crime
01:11:46.480 rate in
01:11:47.140 some
01:11:47.540 demographic.
01:11:48.820 No, most
01:11:49.660 of them are
01:11:50.000 not committing
01:11:50.440 any crimes.
01:11:52.060 It's never
01:11:52.560 everybody.
01:11:53.640 It's never
01:11:54.420 everybody.
01:11:56.840 And so
01:11:57.500 when you
01:11:57.780 see anybody
01:11:58.400 fact check
01:11:59.140 somebody's
01:12:00.880 alleged claim
01:12:01.800 of an
01:12:02.160 absolute,
01:12:03.520 the fact
01:12:04.020 checker is
01:12:04.600 the criminal
01:12:05.200 here.
01:12:06.100 You don't
01:12:06.760 fact check
01:12:07.400 a statement
01:12:07.980 that's obviously
01:12:09.020 not meant
01:12:09.540 to be
01:12:10.000 an absolute.
01:12:11.400 But they
01:12:11.760 did.
01:12:14.220 And then
01:12:14.920 is he so
01:12:15.540 wrong?
01:12:16.640 So he said
01:12:17.140 the US
01:12:17.520 put in
01:12:17.900 171 and
01:12:19.280 the European
01:12:20.280 Union only
01:12:20.880 put in
01:12:21.160 20.
01:12:22.260 But they're
01:12:22.660 like, no,
01:12:23.840 that's so
01:12:24.840 wrong.
01:12:25.600 They put in
01:12:26.100 40.
01:12:27.840 But what
01:12:28.440 about the
01:12:28.740 171?
01:12:30.520 How does
01:12:31.460 that change
01:12:31.980 Trump's
01:12:32.420 argument at
01:12:33.180 all?
01:12:34.600 You're like,
01:12:35.080 oh, they
01:12:35.500 only put in
01:12:35.920 20.
01:12:36.680 Well, you
01:12:37.000 know, if
01:12:37.460 they'd put in
01:12:37.920 40, I'd
01:12:38.600 be good.
01:12:39.800 No, it's
01:12:40.540 171 is
01:12:41.820 your bogey.
01:12:42.780 Or that's
01:12:43.740 your target.
01:12:45.220 40 is
01:12:46.440 not really
01:12:47.060 close to
01:12:47.540 171.
01:12:49.600 Neither
01:12:49.900 is 20.
01:12:51.220 So again,
01:12:52.400 Trump is
01:12:52.980 emotionally
01:12:53.720 correct.
01:12:54.920 You can
01:12:55.320 feel it.
01:12:56.560 You can
01:12:56.980 feel that
01:12:57.660 the US
01:12:58.000 is putting
01:12:58.460 in more
01:12:58.820 than the
01:12:59.140 European
01:12:59.400 Union.
01:13:00.440 And they
01:13:00.740 fact check
01:13:01.220 it.
01:13:02.540 Now, I
01:13:03.220 like the
01:13:03.560 fact check.
01:13:04.200 I should
01:13:04.620 know that
01:13:05.060 it's closer
01:13:05.800 to 40
01:13:06.300 than 20.
01:13:07.180 But it
01:13:07.740 doesn't
01:13:08.020 change its
01:13:08.480 point.
01:13:09.500 It doesn't
01:13:10.200 change its
01:13:10.620 point at
01:13:11.040 all.
01:13:13.040 And then
01:13:13.640 the running
01:13:13.980 out of ammo
01:13:14.540 thing is
01:13:15.060 just CNN
01:13:16.060 bullshit.
01:13:17.660 Then the
01:13:20.820 border wall.
01:13:23.040 This is just
01:13:23.800 so brazen.
01:13:24.740 Trump claimed
01:13:25.260 they had
01:13:25.640 finished his
01:13:26.260 promised wall
01:13:27.040 on the border
01:13:27.500 with Mexico.
01:13:28.860 He said,
01:13:29.480 quote,
01:13:29.640 I did finish
01:13:30.440 the wall.
01:13:30.960 I built a
01:13:31.480 wall, he
01:13:31.900 said.
01:13:32.540 I built
01:13:32.860 hundreds of
01:13:33.360 miles of
01:13:33.760 wall.
01:13:34.260 And I
01:13:34.660 finished it.
01:13:35.520 And then
01:13:35.840 I said,
01:13:36.360 we have
01:13:36.740 to build
01:13:37.020 some more.
01:13:41.020 What does
01:13:41.560 that even
01:13:41.900 mean?
01:13:43.160 What does
01:13:43.680 it mean to
01:13:44.080 be finished
01:13:44.660 if you need
01:13:45.500 to build
01:13:45.840 more?
01:13:47.980 For me,
01:13:48.640 having to
01:13:49.160 build more
01:13:49.620 is the
01:13:49.940 opposite of
01:13:50.400 being finished.
01:13:51.960 But of
01:13:52.300 course, he
01:13:52.580 got fact
01:13:53.120 checked like
01:13:53.600 crazy because
01:13:54.260 not much of
01:13:54.860 the wall
01:13:56.020 got built.
01:13:56.420 But the
01:13:57.800 fact that he
01:13:58.220 would just
01:13:58.500 throw that
01:13:59.180 out there
01:13:59.600 was hilarious.
01:14:01.760 All right,
01:14:01.960 that's the
01:14:02.260 case where
01:14:02.640 he knew he
01:14:03.140 was full
01:14:04.360 of shit,
01:14:04.880 but he's
01:14:06.180 selling anyway.
01:14:08.560 All right,
01:14:09.100 here's an
01:14:11.000 interesting one.
01:14:12.240 So he
01:14:13.040 was accused
01:14:13.760 of not
01:14:15.060 caring enough
01:14:15.640 about Mike
01:14:16.240 Pence's
01:14:16.820 safety during
01:14:17.780 January 6th.
01:14:19.600 And Trump
01:14:20.340 says to us
01:14:20.900 that he
01:14:21.120 doesn't believe
01:14:21.840 that Pence
01:14:23.560 was actually,
01:14:24.560 quote,
01:14:24.660 in any
01:14:25.120 danger during
01:14:26.660 those several
01:14:27.180 hours.
01:14:28.440 What do you
01:14:29.040 think of that
01:14:29.360 response?
01:14:31.280 Trump said
01:14:31.780 he wasn't
01:14:32.200 in any
01:14:32.580 danger.
01:14:34.460 In
01:14:34.660 retrospect,
01:14:36.300 after the
01:14:36.860 fact,
01:14:37.380 with what
01:14:37.820 we know
01:14:38.160 now,
01:14:38.840 is it
01:14:39.200 true?
01:14:41.720 He was
01:14:42.440 surrounded
01:14:42.800 by men
01:14:43.720 with guns,
01:14:45.100 was he
01:14:45.660 not?
01:14:46.500 Was he
01:14:46.900 not surrounded
01:14:47.520 by armed
01:14:48.320 men?
01:14:49.600 In
01:14:49.860 retrospect,
01:14:50.560 he was
01:14:50.860 safe.
01:14:52.320 Because the
01:14:53.040 people coming
01:14:54.120 after him
01:14:54.620 apparently did
01:14:55.300 not have the
01:14:55.760 same level
01:14:56.800 of weaponry.
01:14:58.000 So he
01:14:58.600 actually was
01:14:59.020 safe,
01:14:59.580 because they
01:14:59.880 would have
01:15:00.100 shot the
01:15:00.460 first person
01:15:00.940 who came
01:15:01.220 through the
01:15:01.540 door,
01:15:02.280 just like
01:15:02.700 Ashley
01:15:03.000 Babbitt.
01:15:05.160 Now,
01:15:05.740 you don't
01:15:06.060 know,
01:15:07.060 and if it
01:15:08.460 were me,
01:15:09.180 I wouldn't
01:15:09.620 feel as
01:15:10.040 safe.
01:15:10.660 I mean,
01:15:10.900 if I
01:15:11.120 were Pence,
01:15:11.580 I would
01:15:11.780 definitely
01:15:12.000 say I
01:15:12.360 don't feel
01:15:12.680 safe.
01:15:13.500 But it's
01:15:14.580 not a bad
01:15:15.000 argument.
01:15:16.440 It's not a
01:15:16.920 bad argument.
01:15:18.560 Yeah,
01:15:18.900 the guns
01:15:19.660 probably would
01:15:20.320 have protected
01:15:20.860 him.
01:15:21.680 But you
01:15:22.060 don't know.
01:15:23.120 I mean,
01:15:23.880 this is one
01:15:24.740 where he's
01:15:25.420 technically,
01:15:25.940 he's probably
01:15:26.780 technically
01:15:27.320 correct,
01:15:28.180 but this
01:15:29.220 is one
01:15:29.540 where it
01:15:29.780 doesn't feel
01:15:30.280 right.
01:15:31.780 You see
01:15:32.120 the difference?
01:15:33.760 He became
01:15:34.400 CNN in this
01:15:35.240 case.
01:15:35.880 He's giving
01:15:36.360 you a
01:15:36.640 technical
01:15:37.020 answer.
01:15:37.920 It doesn't
01:15:38.260 feel right.
01:15:39.920 You know,
01:15:40.200 I like my
01:15:41.100 vice president
01:15:41.660 to be alive.
01:15:43.100 I like my
01:15:43.760 vice president
01:15:44.340 to be protected.
01:15:45.380 And I love me
01:15:46.160 some Mike Pence,
01:15:47.480 which I say
01:15:48.040 all the time.
01:15:48.860 Don't agree
01:15:49.460 with him.
01:15:50.440 You know,
01:15:50.600 I don't agree
01:15:51.380 with his
01:15:53.080 opinions on
01:15:53.680 stuff.
01:15:54.600 But he is
01:15:55.120 an honorable
01:15:55.860 patriot.
01:15:58.140 And I'm
01:15:59.280 totally in
01:15:59.740 favor of him.
01:16:01.580 All right.
01:16:04.060 Let's see.
01:16:08.300 He did,
01:16:09.280 oh,
01:16:09.660 they fact
01:16:10.120 checked
01:16:10.380 Trump saying
01:16:11.800 that he got
01:16:12.360 NATO to
01:16:12.920 spend more
01:16:13.420 money.
01:16:14.720 Have you
01:16:15.240 ever heard
01:16:15.540 that fact
01:16:16.000 check before?
01:16:17.720 So Trump
01:16:18.340 says,
01:16:18.960 yeah,
01:16:19.120 I got
01:16:19.380 NATO to
01:16:20.080 put up
01:16:20.600 all this
01:16:20.940 extra money.
01:16:22.820 And here's
01:16:23.400 the fact
01:16:23.760 check.
01:16:24.780 So did
01:16:25.180 Obama.
01:16:25.840 It's been
01:16:26.280 trending this
01:16:26.860 way and
01:16:27.260 it's just
01:16:27.520 more of
01:16:27.800 the trend.
01:16:29.760 Have you
01:16:30.280 heard that
01:16:30.600 before?
01:16:31.440 Have you
01:16:31.720 ever heard
01:16:32.040 that Obama
01:16:32.620 got them
01:16:33.500 to spend
01:16:33.920 more money
01:16:34.380 too?
01:16:35.280 And that
01:16:35.640 this was
01:16:36.080 basically a
01:16:36.940 continuation
01:16:37.380 of an
01:16:37.960 upward
01:16:38.240 trend?
01:16:39.760 I don't
01:16:40.220 know how
01:16:40.540 true that
01:16:41.020 is.
01:16:42.700 Because it's
01:16:43.360 a little
01:16:43.580 sketchy the
01:16:44.160 way they
01:16:44.460 present it.
01:16:45.580 It feels
01:16:46.140 like they're
01:16:46.500 trying too
01:16:46.960 hard on that
01:16:47.520 one.
01:16:47.960 But I'll
01:16:48.500 take the
01:16:48.860 fact check
01:16:49.340 that Obama
01:16:50.440 also
01:16:50.840 increased.
01:16:51.440 That's
01:16:51.620 probably
01:16:51.840 true.
01:16:53.600 It was
01:16:53.860 the eighth
01:16:54.320 consecutive
01:16:54.820 year of
01:16:55.400 rising
01:16:55.880 defense
01:16:56.540 spending
01:16:56.900 for the
01:16:57.580 NATO
01:16:57.840 countries.
01:16:59.180 All right.
01:17:02.780 So Democrats
01:17:03.880 were trying
01:17:04.320 hard to
01:17:04.700 defend the
01:17:05.240 Biden
01:17:05.600 crime
01:17:06.040 family.
01:17:07.220 And their
01:17:08.520 defense has
01:17:09.740 approached
01:17:10.200 parity.
01:17:12.660 Which is the
01:17:13.520 fun part.
01:17:14.200 The part where
01:17:14.800 I get
01:17:15.300 interested.
01:17:15.660 I like it
01:17:16.780 when the
01:17:17.400 ridiculousness
01:17:18.420 rises to
01:17:19.500 you can't
01:17:20.100 tell a
01:17:20.400 parody from
01:17:20.960 a real
01:17:21.260 thing anymore.
01:17:22.260 It looks
01:17:22.620 like it's
01:17:22.960 all just
01:17:23.380 a joke.
01:17:24.500 But their
01:17:25.020 defense is
01:17:25.700 that, oh
01:17:26.920 sure, there
01:17:28.040 might be
01:17:28.460 plenty of
01:17:29.020 evidence of
01:17:29.600 a complicated
01:17:31.000 web of
01:17:31.740 companies that
01:17:32.520 don't provide
01:17:33.040 actual services,
01:17:34.440 but do take
01:17:35.220 money from
01:17:36.020 foreign nationals
01:17:37.440 who maybe are
01:17:38.120 adversaries in
01:17:38.940 some cases.
01:17:39.500 And it
01:17:41.000 does seem
01:17:41.480 that they
01:17:42.280 gave that
01:17:42.720 money to
01:17:43.140 Hunter Biden
01:17:44.700 and some
01:17:45.400 other family
01:17:45.960 members.
01:17:47.020 But here's
01:17:47.580 the important
01:17:47.960 part.
01:17:49.560 No evidence
01:17:50.260 was presented
01:17:51.080 that any of
01:17:56.120 that money
01:17:56.440 went to
01:17:56.800 Biden or
01:17:57.460 that any
01:17:58.040 of his
01:17:58.400 policies were
01:17:59.280 influenced by
01:17:59.960 it.
01:18:01.580 That's the
01:18:02.300 defense.
01:18:03.800 Oh, yes.
01:18:04.740 Yes.
01:18:05.380 His family
01:18:06.500 was a
01:18:07.900 criminal
01:18:08.220 enterprise.
01:18:08.920 Well, that's
01:18:09.340 true.
01:18:10.200 Yeah.
01:18:10.960 But there's
01:18:11.540 no evidence
01:18:11.960 that that
01:18:12.300 money went
01:18:12.620 to him.
01:18:14.260 Let's see,
01:18:14.900 what evidence
01:18:15.380 do we have?
01:18:17.800 We do have
01:18:18.700 evidence that
01:18:19.560 Hunter complained
01:18:20.860 that he had
01:18:22.080 to give a lot
01:18:22.660 of his money
01:18:23.280 to his dad.
01:18:25.560 I don't know.
01:18:26.120 I would call
01:18:26.560 that evidence.
01:18:27.580 It's in
01:18:27.920 writing, in
01:18:29.280 the actual
01:18:29.780 words of the
01:18:30.900 principal
01:18:31.960 person.
01:18:33.640 How about
01:18:34.340 the fact
01:18:34.900 that there's
01:18:36.800 documentation that
01:18:38.080 Hunter was
01:18:38.800 renting a
01:18:39.440 room at
01:18:40.020 his parents'
01:18:40.500 house for
01:18:40.980 $50,000 a
01:18:42.140 month?
01:18:43.140 Or rented
01:18:43.800 the house?
01:18:44.440 Was it the
01:18:44.840 house or a
01:18:45.300 room?
01:18:45.500 I can't
01:18:45.740 remember.
01:18:46.600 But when
01:18:47.460 you heard that,
01:18:47.940 did you think
01:18:48.320 to yourself,
01:18:48.760 wow, that's a
01:18:49.320 lot of rent.
01:18:51.900 Seems almost
01:18:52.780 higher than the
01:18:53.840 market would
01:18:54.420 demand.
01:18:56.060 It's almost as
01:18:57.100 if it was a
01:18:58.240 way to give
01:18:58.960 his father
01:18:59.480 money that
01:19:02.120 was laundering
01:19:03.200 it.
01:19:03.420 So I'm
01:19:05.220 pretty sure
01:19:05.720 that there
01:19:06.100 is evidence
01:19:06.700 that Joe
01:19:07.280 Biden
01:19:07.600 benefited.
01:19:09.220 You can't
01:19:09.940 say it's
01:19:10.200 proof.
01:19:11.100 I'd have to
01:19:11.780 see it in a
01:19:12.320 court of law
01:19:12.940 with all the
01:19:13.620 counterpoints,
01:19:15.280 et cetera.
01:19:16.080 But there's
01:19:16.640 evidence.
01:19:17.840 There's certainly
01:19:18.440 evidence.
01:19:19.220 And I'm
01:19:19.420 thinking, where
01:19:19.800 does this go
01:19:20.320 next?
01:19:23.240 The next
01:19:23.940 place it would
01:19:24.440 go is, all
01:19:26.040 right, all
01:19:26.480 right, sure.
01:19:27.700 We do have
01:19:28.520 evidence that
01:19:29.420 the money came
01:19:30.060 from adversary
01:19:30.760 countries, through
01:19:31.880 the Hunter
01:19:32.340 crime family,
01:19:33.660 and some
01:19:34.420 of it did
01:19:34.980 end up in
01:19:35.940 Joe Biden's
01:19:37.340 pocket, but
01:19:38.440 there's no
01:19:39.460 proof he ever
01:19:40.040 spent it.
01:19:41.880 Yeah, there's
01:19:42.260 no proof he
01:19:42.740 spent it.
01:19:44.060 And it's just
01:19:44.560 going to get
01:19:44.900 stupid.
01:19:46.540 Oh, he
01:19:47.200 took the
01:19:47.600 money.
01:19:48.480 Yeah, he
01:19:48.800 took the
01:19:49.140 money, but
01:19:50.300 he didn't
01:19:50.620 spend it.
01:19:51.540 Or the
01:19:52.020 next one
01:19:52.460 will be,
01:19:53.520 well, yeah,
01:19:54.800 he did take
01:19:55.740 money from
01:19:56.160 people trying
01:19:56.740 to influence
01:19:57.360 his policy,
01:19:58.500 but he was
01:19:59.420 going to make
01:19:59.800 that policy
01:20:00.440 anyway.
01:20:00.820 I mean, he
01:20:02.920 was going to
01:20:03.240 do that
01:20:03.560 anyway.
01:20:04.140 It just
01:20:04.440 makes sense.
01:20:06.200 Yeah.
01:20:07.040 Well, yeah,
01:20:07.800 things did go
01:20:08.540 the way that
01:20:09.400 that company
01:20:10.480 wanted him to
01:20:11.120 go, but,
01:20:12.040 you know,
01:20:12.320 things were
01:20:12.740 going to go
01:20:13.080 that way
01:20:13.500 anyway.
01:20:14.900 Sort of
01:20:15.380 like NATO.
01:20:16.560 NATO was
01:20:17.320 going to
01:20:17.560 give us
01:20:17.860 more, or
01:20:18.860 European
01:20:19.200 countries were
01:20:19.860 going to
01:20:20.060 give more
01:20:20.360 money to
01:20:20.740 NATO
01:20:21.000 anyway.
01:20:22.220 It was
01:20:22.880 going to
01:20:23.080 happen
01:20:23.260 anyway.
01:20:26.000 Anyway,
01:20:26.640 that's
01:20:26.940 funny.
01:20:27.180 Let me
01:20:30.340 now test
01:20:30.980 the
01:20:31.220 intelligence
01:20:31.680 of my
01:20:32.100 audience.
01:20:32.620 Can you
01:20:32.840 give me
01:20:33.060 the answer
01:20:33.400 before I
01:20:33.840 ask the
01:20:34.100 question?
01:20:34.480 Go.
01:20:35.600 Give me
01:20:35.900 the answer
01:20:36.300 before I
01:20:36.760 ask the
01:20:37.020 question.
01:20:38.300 I won't
01:20:38.640 even look.
01:20:40.100 I'll look
01:20:40.480 up now.
01:20:42.040 Good.
01:20:42.940 That is
01:20:43.360 how smart
01:20:43.740 you are.
01:20:44.960 And the
01:20:45.220 question
01:20:45.500 was,
01:20:46.860 Rasmussen
01:20:47.600 did a
01:20:48.000 poll on
01:20:48.560 how many
01:20:48.860 people think
01:20:49.420 the Biden
01:20:49.920 crime
01:20:50.300 family
01:20:50.660 accusations
01:20:51.240 are in
01:20:53.360 the serious
01:20:54.040 category,
01:20:55.320 or two
01:20:55.880 different
01:20:56.140 categories.
01:20:57.180 But 69%
01:20:59.640 said that
01:21:00.400 the Biden
01:21:00.900 family
01:21:01.280 accusations
01:21:01.980 are a
01:21:02.560 serious
01:21:02.880 issue.
01:21:04.220 But the
01:21:05.040 real question
01:21:05.520 I wanted
01:21:05.860 to ask
01:21:06.160 you is
01:21:06.420 how many
01:21:06.840 polled
01:21:07.840 think it's
01:21:08.500 not serious?
01:21:11.700 26%.
01:21:12.340 26%.
01:21:14.340 You basically
01:21:15.280 got it.
01:21:16.220 Yeah,
01:21:16.440 26%.
01:21:17.300 And that's
01:21:19.140 how smart
01:21:19.680 my live
01:21:20.260 stream audience
01:21:20.840 is.
01:21:21.360 There has
01:21:21.620 never been
01:21:22.020 a smarter
01:21:22.540 audience in
01:21:23.180 the history
01:21:23.620 of politics
01:21:25.420 and life
01:21:26.240 itself.
01:21:26.600 They can
01:21:27.580 tell you
01:21:27.920 the answer
01:21:28.460 before the
01:21:29.720 question is
01:21:30.200 asked.
01:21:30.940 If you'd
01:21:31.520 like to
01:21:31.800 see me
01:21:32.100 do this
01:21:32.480 demonstration
01:21:33.100 over and
01:21:33.880 over again,
01:21:34.960 well,
01:21:35.420 there's no
01:21:35.800 limit to
01:21:36.180 how many
01:21:36.380 times I
01:21:36.760 can do
01:21:37.020 it.
01:21:39.280 All right.
01:21:39.920 why are we
01:21:43.340 okay that
01:21:43.940 the vice
01:21:45.240 president is
01:21:45.860 drunk in
01:21:46.280 public?
01:21:47.520 I just
01:21:48.140 feel like I
01:21:48.600 need to
01:21:48.880 say that
01:21:49.260 every 10
01:21:49.700 minutes.
01:21:50.720 Why are we
01:21:51.160 okay with
01:21:51.540 that?
01:21:52.740 Why is that
01:21:53.280 okay?
01:21:54.520 All right,
01:21:55.000 I'm done
01:21:55.320 with that.
01:21:56.320 Here's a
01:21:56.840 question I
01:21:57.280 asked.
01:21:58.120 Does it
01:21:58.620 strike you
01:21:59.240 as suspicious
01:22:00.160 that a
01:22:01.920 whole bunch
01:22:02.400 of companies
01:22:03.000 that could
01:22:04.440 never make
01:22:05.060 a good
01:22:05.520 AI product
01:22:06.320 before?
01:22:07.900 Suddenly,
01:22:08.480 they can
01:22:08.760 all do
01:22:09.080 it this
01:22:09.400 year?
01:22:10.820 Does it
01:22:11.180 seem weird
01:22:11.960 to you that
01:22:13.420 couldn't do
01:22:13.880 it at all
01:22:14.440 or not
01:22:16.240 really well
01:22:16.680 enough to
01:22:16.980 make any
01:22:17.260 kind of
01:22:17.480 commercial
01:22:17.840 product out
01:22:18.500 of it?
01:22:19.240 But now
01:22:20.400 everybody can
01:22:21.060 do it.
01:22:21.820 So Google
01:22:22.720 is now getting
01:22:23.440 ready to roll
01:22:24.100 out their
01:22:24.500 version.
01:22:25.340 They've already
01:22:25.760 got this
01:22:26.140 thing called
01:22:26.500 Bard,
01:22:27.020 but they're
01:22:27.400 going to
01:22:27.560 work on
01:22:27.860 the search
01:22:28.300 as well.
01:22:29.620 So doesn't
01:22:31.340 that seem a
01:22:31.940 little bit
01:22:32.620 coincidental?
01:22:36.320 Now here
01:22:37.520 are the
01:22:38.060 theories which
01:22:39.620 I got.
01:22:40.820 The theories
01:22:41.280 are, number
01:22:42.620 one, they
01:22:43.440 share
01:22:44.060 discoveries.
01:22:47.020 But do
01:22:47.360 you think
01:22:47.720 that competitive
01:22:48.480 companies are
01:22:49.500 sharing the
01:22:50.100 good stuff?
01:22:51.480 Are they?
01:22:52.940 Or it could
01:22:53.780 be just
01:22:54.140 employees leave
01:22:54.980 one company
01:22:55.600 and take
01:22:56.300 their knowledge
01:22:56.760 to another.
01:22:57.420 It could
01:22:57.600 be that.
01:22:58.360 So probably
01:22:58.740 there's a
01:22:59.120 lot of
01:22:59.480 one company
01:23:01.320 paying double
01:23:02.740 to hire
01:23:03.660 away a
01:23:04.200 good engineer.
01:23:04.820 engineer, so
01:23:06.500 you'd expect
01:23:07.080 that they
01:23:07.440 could afford
01:23:08.200 to hire
01:23:08.880 away the
01:23:09.300 good engineer,
01:23:10.060 so maybe
01:23:10.440 they're all
01:23:11.020 just working
01:23:11.480 with the
01:23:11.800 same knowledge
01:23:12.300 after a
01:23:12.720 while.
01:23:13.040 Could be
01:23:13.300 that.
01:23:14.320 The other
01:23:14.940 thing is
01:23:15.720 there was a
01:23:18.100 technical
01:23:18.520 breakthrough
01:23:19.020 which became
01:23:21.220 common to
01:23:21.820 all of them.
01:23:22.480 So around
01:23:23.000 2017, there
01:23:25.120 was this
01:23:25.440 technical
01:23:25.800 breakthrough
01:23:26.300 called
01:23:28.360 transformers.
01:23:31.420 So a
01:23:32.680 transformer is
01:23:33.780 a technical
01:23:35.180 word that
01:23:36.640 relates to
01:23:37.460 the AI
01:23:38.240 field.
01:23:41.260 And what
01:23:41.500 it is is,
01:23:42.640 well, can I
01:23:45.080 just read you
01:23:45.640 the definition?
01:23:47.080 Because I think
01:23:47.460 the definition is
01:23:48.200 really self-explanatory.
01:23:49.820 I don't want to
01:23:50.540 use my words
01:23:51.420 because it could
01:23:52.100 be confusing.
01:23:53.360 So I'll just
01:23:53.820 give you the
01:23:54.400 simple explanation
01:23:57.040 because this
01:23:57.520 might be the
01:23:58.140 key thing
01:23:59.380 that unlocked
01:24:01.240 AI and made
01:24:01.940 it work for
01:24:02.320 everybody.
01:24:04.060 So just in
01:24:05.060 simple terms,
01:24:05.920 this is what
01:24:06.360 it is.
01:24:07.140 All right,
01:24:07.380 to solve the
01:24:07.960 problem of
01:24:08.520 parallelization,
01:24:11.260 transformers try
01:24:12.260 to solve the
01:24:12.780 problem by
01:24:13.300 using,
01:24:14.020 now hold on,
01:24:15.680 convolutional
01:24:16.620 neural networks
01:24:17.480 together with
01:24:18.640 attention models.
01:24:20.380 And then the
01:24:20.780 attention boosts
01:24:22.080 the speed of
01:24:22.580 how fast the
01:24:23.140 model can
01:24:23.620 translate from
01:24:24.720 one sequence
01:24:25.440 to another.
01:24:25.960 But the idea
01:24:26.800 behind the
01:24:27.340 attention mechanism
01:24:28.220 was to permit
01:24:29.740 the decoder
01:24:30.580 to utilize the
01:24:32.280 most relevant
01:24:32.780 parts of the
01:24:33.380 input sequence
01:24:34.220 in a flexible
01:24:35.320 manner by a
01:24:36.760 weighted combination
01:24:37.600 of all the
01:24:38.120 encoded input
01:24:39.060 vectors with the
01:24:40.560 most relevant
01:24:41.300 vectors being
01:24:42.060 attributed to
01:24:42.680 highest weights.
01:24:44.980 And that's
01:24:45.680 what you thought
01:24:46.120 it was,
01:24:46.480 right?
01:24:47.560 I probably
01:24:47.940 didn't add
01:24:48.400 anything to
01:24:48.980 your current
01:24:49.700 knowledge because
01:24:50.360 that's exactly
01:24:51.240 what you're
01:24:51.680 thinking.
01:24:52.040 You're thinking,
01:24:53.040 well,
01:24:53.240 is this some
01:24:53.620 kind of thing
01:24:54.160 to,
01:24:55.300 does it involve
01:24:56.300 weighted combinations
01:24:57.200 of all the
01:24:57.720 encoded input
01:24:58.460 vectors with the
01:24:59.240 most relevant
01:24:59.680 vectors being
01:25:00.380 attributed to
01:25:00.960 the highest
01:25:01.260 weights?
01:25:01.600 Yes.
01:25:02.340 Yes,
01:25:02.640 that's exactly
01:25:03.240 what it is,
01:25:04.100 is what you
01:25:04.580 were thinking.
01:25:06.060 So good for
01:25:06.880 you.
01:25:08.140 You got that
01:25:08.760 one right,
01:25:09.220 too.
01:25:11.000 But it could
01:25:11.760 be that this,
01:25:13.200 now keep in
01:25:13.860 mind this was
01:25:14.360 2017.
01:25:16.280 So everybody
01:25:17.160 got this new
01:25:17.920 knowledge about
01:25:18.840 this transformers
01:25:20.240 kind of thing.
01:25:21.080 So they got
01:25:21.940 that in 2017
01:25:22.860 and it took
01:25:25.040 them all
01:25:25.640 exactly this
01:25:26.500 amount of
01:25:26.860 time to
01:25:28.020 produce the
01:25:28.620 commercial model.
01:25:30.600 There's something
01:25:31.420 we don't
01:25:31.900 understand.
01:25:33.480 Do you
01:25:33.800 believe that?
01:25:35.180 Isn't there
01:25:35.620 something,
01:25:36.120 there's at least
01:25:36.680 one variable
01:25:37.860 that we don't
01:25:39.620 understand because
01:25:41.440 this is too much
01:25:42.280 of a coincidence.
01:25:44.340 Now it could be
01:25:45.280 that sharing of
01:25:46.080 employees thing,
01:25:47.380 but you know,
01:25:47.860 usually they're in
01:25:48.540 some kind of
01:25:49.100 a non-disclosure
01:25:51.560 agreement situation,
01:25:53.080 but maybe that
01:25:53.580 just doesn't
01:25:54.060 work in this
01:25:54.640 world.
01:25:57.140 I don't know.
01:25:58.240 Here's another
01:25:59.080 possibility.
01:26:01.900 That the AI
01:26:02.840 technology came
01:26:04.400 from the
01:26:04.760 government.
01:26:06.640 That the
01:26:07.280 government knew
01:26:07.960 how to do it
01:26:08.580 and they made
01:26:10.020 it available to
01:26:10.720 some select
01:26:11.400 big corporations
01:26:12.280 because they
01:26:13.600 want the United
01:26:14.140 States to be
01:26:14.820 competitive in
01:26:15.720 much the way
01:26:16.460 the Internet
01:26:17.840 was boosted
01:26:19.000 by our
01:26:19.360 government
01:26:19.780 because the
01:26:20.800 Internet would
01:26:21.240 be so important
01:26:21.860 to everything.
01:26:22.920 It could be
01:26:23.740 the AI is so
01:26:24.640 important that
01:26:25.440 our government
01:26:26.100 said,
01:26:26.680 we do have
01:26:28.120 some good
01:26:28.540 secrets and
01:26:30.140 we're going
01:26:30.480 to allow you
01:26:31.260 to see them.
01:26:34.040 Now,
01:26:34.780 here's what
01:26:35.640 I would watch
01:26:36.320 for to see
01:26:37.380 if that's the
01:26:37.880 case.
01:26:38.860 What I'd
01:26:39.240 watch for
01:26:39.860 is technical
01:26:42.180 countries,
01:26:43.480 countries that
01:26:44.200 have good
01:26:44.440 technology,
01:26:45.020 let's say
01:26:45.320 South Korea.
01:26:46.420 If South
01:26:47.240 Korea does
01:26:47.920 not come
01:26:48.600 out with
01:26:49.160 its own
01:26:49.660 independent
01:26:50.600 AI real
01:26:52.780 soon,
01:26:54.120 what would
01:26:54.760 that tell
01:26:55.120 you?
01:26:57.140 Well,
01:26:57.740 it would
01:26:57.920 tell me
01:26:58.400 it's not
01:26:58.840 because of
01:26:59.280 this
01:26:59.440 Transformers
01:27:00.180 stuff because
01:27:01.820 they all
01:27:02.240 had access
01:27:02.700 to it.
01:27:05.660 What about
01:27:06.420 China?
01:27:07.600 Suppose China
01:27:08.300 doesn't come
01:27:08.960 out with a
01:27:09.700 good AI
01:27:10.740 anytime soon.
01:27:13.660 So the
01:27:14.660 fact that it
01:27:15.300 seems to be
01:27:15.780 American
01:27:16.320 companies who
01:27:17.760 all sort
01:27:18.360 of suddenly
01:27:18.960 could do
01:27:19.400 this.
01:27:19.960 You know,
01:27:20.140 Microsoft
01:27:20.520 can do
01:27:21.080 it and
01:27:21.960 Snapchat
01:27:23.640 can do
01:27:24.220 it and
01:27:24.540 Google can
01:27:25.220 do it.
01:27:26.560 Apple's
01:27:27.040 working on
01:27:27.480 a version
01:27:27.840 probably.
01:27:29.600 I don't
01:27:29.940 know.
01:27:30.520 I feel
01:27:30.980 like the
01:27:31.380 government's
01:27:31.960 involved.
01:27:32.480 What do
01:27:32.660 you think?
01:27:34.760 Just a
01:27:35.460 speculation.
01:27:37.200 No.
01:27:40.260 Maybe?
01:27:40.880 DARPA?
01:27:41.960 I'm seeing
01:27:42.400 DARPA being
01:27:43.140 suggested by a
01:27:43.900 lot of
01:27:44.060 people.
01:27:45.380 I don't
01:27:45.640 know.
01:27:46.340 I'm not
01:27:46.980 confident in
01:27:49.640 that speculation.
01:27:51.300 So if you
01:27:51.880 told me the
01:27:52.380 government was
01:27:52.980 not involved,
01:27:53.720 it wouldn't
01:27:54.080 shock me.
01:27:55.240 But it
01:27:55.840 feels like
01:27:56.320 there's a
01:27:56.640 big unexplained
01:27:57.500 element and
01:27:58.240 when there are
01:27:58.620 big unexplained
01:27:59.380 elements, I
01:28:01.200 look in the
01:28:01.620 same places.
01:28:03.920 All right.
01:28:04.880 Did you
01:28:05.240 know,
01:28:06.160 relevant to
01:28:07.700 nothing,
01:28:08.580 do you know
01:28:09.060 OpenAI,
01:28:10.220 sort of the
01:28:10.780 biggest first
01:28:11.680 one, has a
01:28:13.640 board member
01:28:14.300 named Will
01:28:15.740 Hurd.
01:28:17.600 It was
01:28:18.180 announced he
01:28:18.660 recently joined
01:28:19.440 the board of
01:28:19.980 directors for
01:28:20.640 OpenAI.
01:28:22.360 Let's see,
01:28:22.600 what was his
01:28:23.080 previous job?
01:28:24.880 Before that,
01:28:25.680 he was something
01:28:26.080 else.
01:28:26.760 Before that,
01:28:27.420 he was something
01:28:27.820 else.
01:28:28.720 Before that,
01:28:29.360 he was CIA.
01:28:30.420 CIA.
01:28:30.560 CIA.
01:28:30.600 CIA.
01:28:30.620 CIA.
01:28:30.640 CIA.
01:28:30.660 CIA.
01:28:30.680 CIA.
01:28:30.700 CIA.
01:28:31.640 CIA.
01:28:32.700 CIA.
01:28:34.600 CIA.
01:28:34.640 CIA.
01:28:35.640 CIA.
01:28:35.700 CIA.
01:28:36.580 CIA.
01:28:36.700 CIA.
01:28:36.740 CIA.
01:28:37.700 CIA.
01:28:38.640 CIA.
01:28:47.120 All right.
01:28:48.240 Ladies and
01:28:48.920 gentlemen,
01:28:50.200 I believe this
01:28:51.400 was possibly the
01:28:52.720 best live stream
01:28:53.360 you've ever seen.
01:28:54.520 Trump is back
01:28:55.420 and he's looking
01:28:57.440 strong.
01:28:58.920 I'm still backing
01:29:00.100 Ramaswamy because
01:29:01.160 he's younger and
01:29:02.480 tough on fentanyl.
01:29:04.660 And I do like
01:29:05.980 RFK Jr.
01:29:06.800 though.
01:29:07.340 He's got some
01:29:07.820 good stuff to
01:29:08.500 offer.
01:29:08.880 Good for the
01:29:09.300 country to have
01:29:10.500 that conversation.
01:29:11.920 It's just great.
01:29:13.700 I'm loving so
01:29:14.800 far this
01:29:16.100 presidential cycle
01:29:17.160 because it is
01:29:18.880 introducing us to
01:29:20.180 refreshing elements
01:29:21.600 and we need it to
01:29:23.020 be refreshed.
01:29:24.380 So that's good.
01:29:26.520 All right.
