Transcript

00:00:00.000 Good morning, everybody, and welcome to the highlight of civilization that's called Scott Adams.
00:00:08.280 Coffee with Scott Adams. That would be the actual name of it.
00:00:11.520 And aren't you happy you're here? Because we're going to have some fun today.
00:00:15.720 The news is serving up some goodness. The simulation is treating us right.
00:00:21.900 My technology is all working. I feel like everything's going our way.
00:00:26.300 And we're going to keep that pattern up.
00:00:29.140 And if you'd like to take it to a new level of wonderfulness, all you need is a cup or a mug or a glass, a tank or chalice, a stein, a canteen, a jug, a flask, a vessel of any kind.
00:00:41.580 Fill it with your favorite liquid I like, coffee.
00:00:45.120 And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure, the dopamine hit of the day, the thing that makes everything better.
00:00:50.140 It's called the Simultaneous Sip, and it happens now.
00:00:55.040 Go.
00:00:59.140 Ah.
00:01:03.400 Ah.
00:01:05.320 Well, let's talk about some things.
00:01:07.960 A little update on me.
00:01:10.500 Many of you had asked if I could give you Dilbert Comics without all of my crazy political thoughts.
00:01:18.920 And yes, you can get the whole package of goodness if you're on the Locals platform subscription at scottadams.locals.com.
00:01:27.800 You can get the Dilbert comic and also the Robots Read News comic that I do.
00:01:33.480 It's a little bit edgier.
00:01:34.380 And all my man cave live streams and other goodness.
00:01:41.000 But if you only wanted the comic, I tried to sign up for Twitter's subscription thing, and I'd have a lower price point for people who just want the comic and no nonsense.
00:01:51.260 However, there is an user interface problem that I can't yet solve.
00:01:59.180 Some say I just have to wait.
00:02:01.860 In other words, I signed up to offer a subscription, clicked all the boxes, everything's complete, but it doesn't offer me any options for tweeting that way.
00:02:11.160 I know where to look.
00:02:14.660 I know what it's supposed to look like.
00:02:16.600 Just nothing happened.
00:02:18.580 So I don't know if nothing will ever happen, and I'll never be able to figure out how to offer subscriptions.
00:02:26.080 Or maybe it'll just come alive in a few days because something has to be approved.
00:02:31.020 I think it might have to go through Apple's approval first.
00:02:34.500 But anyway, that's coming.
00:02:37.600 Wall Street Journal had a job satisfaction survey.
00:02:41.160 And you won't believe this.
00:02:43.200 Job satisfaction is at a 36-year high.
00:02:47.160 Does that sound true?
00:02:49.880 Job satisfaction is at a 36-year high.
00:02:54.660 Well, I have some hypotheses for why that could be true.
00:02:59.940 Now, the article talks about people liking hybrid work.
00:03:05.200 People are enjoying working at home more days compared to working at work.
00:03:09.900 Doesn't that make sense?
00:03:12.240 Doesn't that make sense?
00:03:14.040 Yeah.
00:03:14.220 However, I have another hypothesis that after two years of pandemic and people saw what it was like to be home with their families, the job started looking really good.
00:03:30.600 Like, oh, I cannot wait to get back to work.
00:03:34.180 So it could be that we're coming off a comparison that wasn't as good as you think it should be.
00:03:40.820 And people are just kind of happy to get back to work.
00:03:43.880 So it might be that.
00:03:45.540 It could be this hybrid work thing.
00:03:47.580 Imagine going to your work and half of your co-workers are home.
00:03:54.500 What does that do for you?
00:03:56.480 You go into the office, but half of the office is home.
00:04:01.280 That's half as many assholes.
00:04:03.360 What causes all of your problems at work?
00:04:08.440 It's the other people.
00:04:10.260 It's the other people, especially when they're there in person.
00:04:14.220 So if you could reduce the number of other people that you work with by 50% because they're working at home,
00:04:21.000 well, that's got to help you a little bit.
00:04:23.160 It's got to help a little bit.
00:04:25.440 So there's all that.
00:04:27.480 Anyway, surprising and wonderful.
00:04:30.620 It also found that men had higher satisfaction than women in every component of their career or their job, I guess,
00:04:40.880 especially in areas such as leave policy, bonus plans, promotions, communications, and organization culture.
00:04:48.900 It's almost as if, if you put men and women in exactly the same situation, that the men would complain less.
00:04:57.720 But that's not possible, is it?
00:05:00.620 All right.
00:05:02.300 I've never met a woman who loved a job, but I know they exist.
00:05:08.220 That's not true.
00:05:09.640 I'm exaggerating.
00:05:11.060 But generally speaking, my experience is that generally, with lots of exceptions, women hate working.
00:05:20.460 Like they hate a job with a boss.
00:05:22.420 And men, I don't know if we like it better, but maybe we feel like we're supposed to be doing it.
00:05:31.480 So it feels different, maybe.
00:05:33.000 So I've never questioned the concept of me working, because I knew I didn't have an option.
00:05:41.520 If you don't have any options, you just say, well, that's what I do, and you go do it.
00:05:46.440 But imagine if you had the option.
00:05:48.700 You could go to work for some horrible, pointy-haired boss, or you know some other moms who are staying home and raising kids,
00:05:56.960 and you're saying, well, that's not all wine and roses either, but it's better than driving into work.
00:06:03.280 So it could be that men don't perceive they have the stay-at-home option so much, at least not as much.
00:06:12.980 And so that makes them just be happy with what they got.
00:06:17.180 Maybe that.
00:06:19.040 Who knows?
00:06:22.260 Here's another interesting factoid I saw in the news today.
00:06:25.220 that apparently when wives earn their husbands, which is happening more and more,
00:06:38.540 the percentage that that's happened has risen from 5% of marriages in which the woman earned more than the man to 16%.
00:06:49.120 So it's tripled.
00:06:51.420 Probably still, probably keeps heading in that direction.
00:06:54.380 But here's the interesting part, that when the woman earns more than the man,
00:06:59.720 they are more likely to stay married.
00:07:03.860 Do you know why?
00:07:05.640 When the woman earns more than the man, they're more likely to stay married.
00:07:11.900 Follow the money.
00:07:14.960 Once again, money predicts.
00:07:18.080 If the woman and the man are both making money,
00:07:20.500 then nobody's really going to gain by getting divorced.
00:07:24.380 If the man is making all the money,
00:07:28.460 and let's say the wife has been raising the kids or whatever,
00:07:31.840 as soon as the kids are kind of, you know, taking care of themselves,
00:07:36.100 the woman is going to say,
00:07:37.820 all right, let me do the math.
00:07:39.640 If I leave this guy, who's been really annoying me,
00:07:42.660 I'm going to get a bucket of money,
00:07:44.660 and then my whole life will be in front of me,
00:07:46.980 and I'll have a bucket of money.
00:07:48.800 And I still have kids,
00:07:50.820 and I have a bucket of money,
00:07:53.420 and the pool guy is looking good,
00:07:55.980 and suddenly, divorce.
00:07:59.420 But suppose you said to yourself,
00:08:01.400 if I divorce, I'll have less money,
00:08:04.000 like men do.
00:08:06.060 Men don't want to divorce,
00:08:07.280 because if they do, they have less money.
00:08:09.240 They can't, you know,
00:08:10.480 and that really limits them being able to go out
00:08:12.660 and get another, you know, another wife.
00:08:15.700 Because money matters.
00:08:18.340 So it's exactly what you think.
00:08:20.560 And I keep telling you that
00:08:21.600 money predicts even when it shouldn't.
00:08:24.720 This is the perfect example.
00:08:27.160 Money should not
00:08:28.420 be predicting your marriage.
00:08:30.460 Because you don't get married,
00:08:33.020 in theory.
00:08:34.320 You're not getting married just for money.
00:08:36.760 It's the love and all that stuff.
00:08:39.000 The promises.
00:08:40.000 The partnership.
00:08:41.540 But it turns out that money will predict it.
00:08:44.380 Just like it predicts everything else.
00:08:49.880 Well, we're trying to figure out
00:08:51.340 why reproduction is down in this country.
00:08:55.400 And I don't know the full answer to that.
00:08:57.300 I think some of it is
00:08:58.660 everything from social media
00:09:02.580 to pollutants
00:09:04.620 to obesity
00:09:06.280 to everything, basically.
00:09:09.540 But here's one little hint.
00:09:12.820 Actress Marcia Gay Harden
00:09:14.620 says that all three of her adult kids
00:09:18.200 identify as queer.
00:09:20.360 Three for three.
00:09:22.400 She got three for three.
00:09:24.120 Now, they're not all gay, per se.
00:09:25.620 There's, like, non-binary in there
00:09:27.540 or something.
00:09:28.660 But they're all gender-fluid,
00:09:30.580 non-binary,
00:09:31.720 or outright gay.
00:09:33.040 And I ask myself,
00:09:34.820 what are the odds?
00:09:37.640 Could you calculate the odds of that?
00:09:39.840 Three for three?
00:09:40.580 I feel like it would be close to zero, right?
00:09:46.680 It's down in that one percent range
00:09:48.460 or less.
00:09:50.080 But, so, of course,
00:09:51.760 the question you're going to ask yourself is,
00:09:53.880 how much of this is social influence
00:09:57.060 and how much of this is
00:09:58.820 that's the way the kids were born?
00:10:00.920 Now, before you say
00:10:02.080 it's got to be social influence,
00:10:04.800 couldn't there be a genetic connection?
00:10:06.440 If, couldn't there be?
00:10:11.100 Is that impossible?
00:10:12.660 It's not impossible, right?
00:10:15.260 If people are born gay,
00:10:18.200 and that's our current understanding,
00:10:20.860 then why couldn't two parents
00:10:22.580 who have a certain set of genetic peculiarities
00:10:26.200 have three people
00:10:28.660 who would identify as, you know, non-hetero?
00:10:30.860 I mean, I think it's possible, isn't it?
00:10:34.740 I just don't hear about it.
00:10:37.140 So it makes me think the odds are pretty low.
00:10:40.300 However, the only thing I'd like to point out
00:10:42.420 is that the woman who says
00:10:44.780 that all three of her adult children are queer,
00:10:48.220 the simulation has served us up her perfect name,
00:10:53.060 Marsha Gay Hardon.
00:10:56.360 That's right.
00:10:57.880 Her name is Gay Hardon.
00:10:59.200 Now, she pronounces it hard-end,
00:11:02.580 but I think we get the joke.
00:11:06.260 Yep.
00:11:07.460 And if your mom's name is Gay Hardon,
00:11:10.720 are you more likely to end up as queer?
00:11:14.280 That's the word she uses, not my word.
00:11:17.500 I don't know.
00:11:18.640 Kind of a big coincidence, that's all.
00:11:22.080 All right.
00:11:23.840 You've heard about, or maybe you haven't,
00:11:25.560 the Snapchat influencer.
00:11:27.140 There's a real 23-year-old woman
00:11:30.740 who made an AI version of herself
00:11:33.360 that you can chat with personally for a dollar a minute.
00:11:37.020 She made $72,000 this week.
00:11:41.080 She estimates she could get up to
00:11:43.440 earnings of $5 million a month.
00:11:47.580 $5 million a month.
00:11:53.680 And so I looked at her AI, you know, the version,
00:11:58.460 and the first thing I asked myself is,
00:12:01.460 how do I sign up for that?
00:12:03.440 I'm not even joking.
00:12:13.140 This is not a joke.
00:12:14.500 I wouldn't pay a dollar a minute,
00:12:16.480 so I'm not going to sign up for that.
00:12:18.660 But I wanted to sign up just to see what it was all about,
00:12:21.660 you know, just to see if it was as good as they say.
00:12:25.260 Okay.
00:12:28.340 So this is what Karen AI,
00:12:31.360 which is what the AI version of the real person named Karen is named.
00:12:35.400 So Karen AI says in her Twitter feed,
00:12:38.700 this is the first step in the right direction to cure loneliness.
00:12:44.020 Isn't that interesting?
00:12:45.700 It's about curing loneliness.
00:12:47.520 Interesting approach.
00:12:48.860 Men are told to suppress their emotions,
00:12:50.720 hide their masculinity,
00:12:51.840 and to not talk about their issues.
00:12:53.420 I vowed to fix this with Karen AI.
00:12:56.820 I've worked with the world's leading psychologists
00:12:58.620 to seamlessly add CBT and DBT within chats.
00:13:04.880 CBT.
00:13:06.460 So some kind of cock and ball torture is part of this.
00:13:10.420 I think there's another.
00:13:12.580 Oh, cognitive behavior therapy, CBT.
00:13:15.300 That's the other CBT.
00:13:17.140 So it's probably that one.
00:13:20.060 I'm guessing.
00:13:21.460 She's not specific,
00:13:22.320 but she probably means cognitive behavioral therapy
00:13:25.360 and not cock and ball torture.
00:13:27.480 All right.
00:13:27.780 And DBT.
00:13:29.200 So there's some DBT,
00:13:30.400 which would be dick and ball torture
00:13:33.600 or, I don't know,
00:13:38.100 dialectic behavior therapy.
00:13:39.720 Exactly.
00:13:40.940 DBT, dialectic behavior therapy.
00:13:43.060 That's exactly what I was going to say.
00:13:44.360 So it'd be like your little therapist.
00:13:48.740 And it will help you undo your traumas,
00:13:51.160 rebuild physical and emotional confidence,
00:13:53.200 and rebuild what has been taken away by the pandemic.
00:13:57.280 Now, I've got to say,
00:13:59.740 it's a pretty good business model, isn't it?
00:14:02.780 Pretty good business model.
00:14:04.580 Because if it actually could do for you
00:14:06.620 what a therapist could do,
00:14:07.860 $60 a minute would look cheap.
00:14:12.500 Do you think it would be worse than a human therapist?
00:14:17.840 I don't know.
00:14:18.820 I've heard a lot of people going to therapists,
00:14:21.020 and I know we hear about a lot of people getting better.
00:14:23.520 So it seems to me like it's worth a try.
00:14:27.240 All right.
00:14:32.360 So the economy is weirdly strong.
00:14:36.840 So, I don't know, it's kind of sneaking up on us.
00:14:40.780 Because didn't you expect everything to go off the rails?
00:14:45.180 Like, weren't we told everything's going to fall apart?
00:14:48.380 Well, the economy is cooling off.
00:14:50.460 I mean, it's slowing down a little.
00:14:52.340 But that's good news, not bad.
00:14:54.060 Because we need it to cool off
00:14:55.720 to keep the interest rates from rising.
00:15:00.240 And to cool off the inflation.
00:15:04.040 So we're at a point where we want the economy
00:15:06.160 to be solid, but not too fast.
00:15:10.840 Right?
00:15:11.180 You don't want your transactions to be flowing too fast.
00:15:14.080 And we seem to have hit the sweet spot.
00:15:17.220 Believe it or not,
00:15:18.580 we seem to be exactly in the sweet spot.
00:15:20.900 Or close to it.
00:15:22.120 But here are some things that really stood out.
00:15:27.260 Even though a few more people are signing up for,
00:15:31.840 what do you call it, when you're out of work?
00:15:35.920 But the number of jobs is still great.
00:15:38.620 There's still plenty of jobs.
00:15:40.640 And have I told you a million times
00:15:42.360 that if your jobs are good,
00:15:44.320 you can make everything else work.
00:15:47.120 That's the only thing you can't break.
00:15:48.840 You've got to have a job engine.
00:15:51.980 But if you do,
00:15:53.440 you can make everything else work.
00:15:55.960 It's just,
00:15:57.500 you know, you can't lose that.
00:15:58.960 You're in real trouble.
00:16:01.740 And then what about the supply chain problems?
00:16:05.600 Is it my imagination
00:16:06.820 that that big old supply chain problem
00:16:09.240 got fixed?
00:16:10.760 I haven't seen any pictures of,
00:16:12.760 you know,
00:16:13.500 boats waiting to be unloaded.
00:16:16.040 Prices are still high,
00:16:17.240 but coming down slowly,
00:16:18.980 or at least they're accelerating less,
00:16:20.660 so we're going in the right direction.
00:16:22.420 Basically,
00:16:22.980 everything's heading in the right direction
00:16:24.320 except debt.
00:16:27.040 Which, you know,
00:16:28.460 that's sort of like saying
00:16:29.400 the customer is healthy
00:16:31.220 except for the terminal cancer.
00:16:33.080 Because we don't know what to do about the debt.
00:16:35.720 But I'm convinced
00:16:36.960 we don't know anything about anything
00:16:38.580 when it comes to the economy.
00:16:39.700 We can't predict anything.
00:16:42.880 So,
00:16:43.720 I think
00:16:44.380 32 trillion dollars in debt
00:16:47.640 is too much.
00:16:49.220 I think.
00:16:51.320 But I'm not sure.
00:16:53.140 Because when it was 2 trillion dollars,
00:16:55.140 I thought it was way too much.
00:16:57.820 I guess I was wrong
00:16:59.180 by,
00:17:00.160 you know,
00:17:01.160 30 trillion.
00:17:02.420 But
00:17:02.900 it's amazing
00:17:05.140 how little we know
00:17:05.940 about the economy.
00:17:07.240 Even the experts.
00:17:08.660 They really don't know.
00:17:09.700 So,
00:17:10.680 we'll see what happens there.
00:17:12.880 But it doesn't look like all bad news.
00:17:15.640 You know the story of Daniel Penny,
00:17:17.680 the ex-Marine,
00:17:18.920 who
00:17:19.180 tried to,
00:17:21.740 let's say,
00:17:22.860 suppress the crazy guy
00:17:24.500 on the
00:17:25.260 public transit.
00:17:27.480 Where was it?
00:17:28.220 On the subway.
00:17:28.660 and the man died
00:17:31.640 that was being suppressed
00:17:32.720 and now
00:17:33.880 a Soros-backed prosecutor
00:17:35.580 has indicted
00:17:36.400 Daniel Penny
00:17:37.420 and he's going to be charged.
00:17:41.360 It looks like.
00:17:42.540 Now,
00:17:42.780 there's a little question
00:17:43.680 about whether it will go to
00:17:44.620 a grand jury
00:17:46.000 or what's going to happen here,
00:17:47.200 but
00:17:47.500 does anybody think
00:17:49.360 this is anything
00:17:50.140 but racism?
00:17:53.460 It's just racism,
00:17:54.680 right?
00:17:55.560 And it's right in your face.
00:17:57.860 It's just pure racism.
00:17:59.800 It's anti-white.
00:18:01.100 It's just another example
00:18:02.220 of anti-white racism.
00:18:04.060 So,
00:18:04.840 if you're opposed
00:18:07.380 to anti-white racism,
00:18:08.980 and I hope you are,
00:18:10.020 opposed to all forms
00:18:11.140 of racism,
00:18:12.680 Mike Surovich
00:18:14.980 was tweeting a
00:18:16.020 GoFundMe
00:18:17.580 for Daniel Penny's
00:18:18.880 defense fund.
00:18:19.840 I also retweeted that
00:18:21.480 so you can find that
00:18:22.960 toward the top
00:18:24.140 of my Twitter feed
00:18:25.120 this morning.
00:18:26.740 And
00:18:27.300 we'll get rid
00:18:30.340 of this troll.
00:18:32.420 Goodbye.
00:18:33.280 So,
00:18:36.780 yeah,
00:18:37.120 they might shut that down,
00:18:38.380 but for now,
00:18:39.140 it's open,
00:18:40.200 the GoFundMe.
00:18:41.260 And I recommend it
00:18:42.540 because I think
00:18:44.560 he was a Marine,
00:18:46.340 right?
00:18:47.020 He signed up
00:18:47.720 to defend you.
00:18:49.340 Not only did he sign up
00:18:50.860 to defend you
00:18:51.640 as a Marine,
00:18:53.240 but then on this subway,
00:18:54.860 he defended more people.
00:18:57.040 This is a man
00:18:57.860 whose entire adult life
00:18:59.800 so far,
00:19:00.240 he's a young man,
00:19:00.980 right?
00:19:01.280 But his entire adult life
00:19:02.580 so far,
00:19:03.280 has been dedicated
00:19:04.340 to defending other people
00:19:05.780 physically,
00:19:07.340 physically,
00:19:08.320 with his life,
00:19:11.320 with his freedom.
00:19:15.080 That's who he is.
00:19:17.100 And
00:19:17.580 if we can't help him,
00:19:19.480 who can he help,
00:19:20.840 right?
00:19:21.080 So I would encourage you
00:19:23.780 to be generous
00:19:24.880 and give him
00:19:26.320 the best defense
00:19:27.020 he can get
00:19:27.540 because this is
00:19:28.560 beyond the pale.
00:19:29.620 This is just such
00:19:30.400 obvious double standard.
00:19:32.540 We know that
00:19:33.800 if he'd been black,
00:19:35.300 he wouldn't be charged.
00:19:37.140 We all know that,
00:19:38.000 right?
00:19:38.740 This is just
00:19:39.440 a separate standard
00:19:40.720 for white people
00:19:41.580 at this point.
00:19:42.860 Now,
00:19:45.560 to be fair,
00:19:48.400 just to fill
00:19:49.560 in the context,
00:19:50.800 I am quite aware
00:19:51.880 that the justice system
00:19:53.640 has not been fair
00:19:54.500 to black people
00:19:55.440 through history.
00:19:57.140 I'm not making
00:19:59.000 any kind of comparison
00:19:59.920 here.
00:20:00.840 I'm saying that
00:20:01.820 any time the justice system
00:20:03.340 is racist,
00:20:04.820 doesn't matter who
00:20:05.900 it's racist against,
00:20:07.420 you've got to say
00:20:08.800 something about that
00:20:09.700 or put your money
00:20:10.900 behind it.
00:20:12.580 So,
00:20:13.480 that's a thing.
00:20:15.080 All right.
00:20:16.940 Elon Musk tweeted
00:20:18.080 cryptically today.
00:20:19.220 He's tweeted this before,
00:20:20.660 but it must be
00:20:21.500 related to something.
00:20:22.700 He said,
00:20:23.160 the most entertaining
00:20:23.820 outcome is the most likely,
00:20:26.200 as viewed from
00:20:27.420 a third party
00:20:28.140 who's disinterested.
00:20:29.740 Now,
00:20:30.300 we've talked about
00:20:31.460 that before,
00:20:32.440 but I wonder
00:20:33.320 what it refers to.
00:20:35.500 Do you think
00:20:35.880 there's something
00:20:36.320 happening right
00:20:36.980 at the moment
00:20:37.580 that he's
00:20:39.560 referring to
00:20:40.040 the most entertaining
00:20:40.840 outcome is the most
00:20:41.700 likely?
00:20:42.620 Well,
00:20:43.200 at the same time
00:20:43.940 that was happening,
00:20:45.080 Twitter is getting
00:20:46.580 a new CEO.
00:20:49.140 What do you think
00:20:49.860 people's reaction was
00:20:51.100 to the new CEO?
00:20:53.480 100% of the people
00:20:54.640 were happy,
00:20:55.220 right?
00:20:56.580 As soon as he
00:20:57.160 announced the name
00:20:57.800 of the new CEO,
00:20:59.480 it was amazing.
00:21:01.100 Everybody just
00:21:01.800 got in line,
00:21:03.100 the left,
00:21:03.620 the right,
00:21:04.020 and they said,
00:21:04.540 this is exactly
00:21:05.220 the right person.
00:21:07.120 Did that happen?
00:21:07.960 No,
00:21:09.420 it's Twitter.
00:21:10.780 50% of the people
00:21:12.180 are going to hate
00:21:12.840 whoever it is,
00:21:14.120 or in this case,
00:21:15.140 probably 75.
00:21:16.840 It didn't matter
00:21:17.720 who he picked.
00:21:18.900 Can we agree
00:21:19.500 that it doesn't matter
00:21:20.300 who he picked?
00:21:21.340 That person was
00:21:22.340 going to get
00:21:22.800 savaged.
00:21:25.900 So,
00:21:26.560 I'm going to keep
00:21:27.160 an open mind,
00:21:28.360 but I'll tell you
00:21:29.720 the criticisms
00:21:30.500 that popped up,
00:21:32.700 right?
00:21:33.140 So,
00:21:33.540 I'm going to report
00:21:34.120 the criticisms,
00:21:34.800 but I do not
00:21:35.660 share them.
00:21:37.240 I don't think
00:21:38.180 these criticisms
00:21:38.920 are fair
00:21:39.660 or complete
00:21:41.400 or in the right
00:21:43.340 context.
00:21:44.180 So,
00:21:44.520 I'm going to give
00:21:44.860 you my opinion
00:21:45.620 after I tell you
00:21:46.540 other people's
00:21:47.220 opinions,
00:21:47.800 okay?
00:21:48.540 So,
00:21:48.900 other people's
00:21:49.400 opinions are
00:21:49.980 that apparently,
00:21:51.740 so it's a,
00:21:52.620 the new CEO
00:21:54.440 is Linda
00:21:55.120 Yaccarina,
00:21:56.420 and she would
00:21:57.280 be coming from
00:21:57.920 NBC Universal's
00:21:59.820 advertising group.
00:22:01.720 So,
00:22:02.160 she was out
00:22:02.540 of the advertising.
00:22:03.720 Now,
00:22:04.760 the first,
00:22:05.780 yes,
00:22:06.260 okay,
00:22:06.700 I guess I have
00:22:07.300 to say that first
00:22:08.040 because you're
00:22:08.480 just going to
00:22:08.800 put it in the
00:22:09.260 comments.
00:22:10.380 She's,
00:22:10.800 she's a chair
00:22:12.460 and associated
00:22:13.220 with two
00:22:13.860 World Economic
00:22:14.880 Forum
00:22:15.340 working groups.
00:22:17.820 So,
00:22:18.280 she's a member
00:22:18.800 of the World
00:22:19.240 Economic Forum.
00:22:21.360 How do you
00:22:21.900 feel about that?
00:22:23.120 I don't have to
00:22:23.940 ask you,
00:22:24.340 I know how you
00:22:24.820 feel about that.
00:22:25.920 So,
00:22:26.380 that makes you
00:22:26.820 think she's a,
00:22:28.600 you know,
00:22:29.000 some kind of a
00:22:29.820 Klaus Schwab,
00:22:31.720 you know,
00:22:32.940 puppet because
00:22:34.020 he's trying to
00:22:34.520 put his puppets
00:22:35.200 everywhere and
00:22:36.380 she's one of
00:22:36.860 those.
00:22:38.240 Okay,
00:22:39.280 maybe.
00:22:41.340 We'll talk
00:22:42.040 about all that
00:22:42.540 in a minute.
00:22:44.560 There are
00:22:45.180 videos of her
00:22:46.020 strongly promoting
00:22:47.420 pandemic
00:22:49.180 masking
00:22:50.180 and maybe
00:22:51.980 vaccinations.
00:22:52.960 So,
00:22:53.480 she is on
00:22:54.100 the wrong
00:22:54.540 side of
00:22:55.300 pandemic
00:22:56.480 policy,
00:22:57.440 according to
00:22:58.460 many people
00:22:59.180 on the right.
00:23:00.560 Not,
00:23:01.020 not people
00:23:01.460 on the left,
00:23:02.080 but according
00:23:02.560 to people
00:23:02.920 on the right,
00:23:03.380 she would
00:23:03.580 be on the
00:23:03.900 wrong side
00:23:04.400 of the
00:23:05.240 pandemic.
00:23:06.580 So,
00:23:07.060 so far
00:23:07.500 you're saying
00:23:07.940 to yourself,
00:23:08.700 do we have
00:23:10.280 a problem
00:23:10.680 here?
00:23:11.760 You thought
00:23:12.520 Elon Musk
00:23:13.200 was going
00:23:13.580 to be the
00:23:13.960 fair player
00:23:14.700 who gave
00:23:15.600 the right
00:23:16.140 and the
00:23:16.480 left,
00:23:16.940 you know,
00:23:17.340 equal,
00:23:18.420 equal
00:23:18.760 reign,
00:23:19.800 and then
00:23:20.120 he picks
00:23:20.500 a new
00:23:20.880 CEO who
00:23:22.140 clearly,
00:23:22.860 clearly seems
00:23:23.540 to be
00:23:23.820 associated
00:23:24.220 with the
00:23:24.840 left.
00:23:26.240 And it's
00:23:26.880 a woman.
00:23:28.680 And they're
00:23:29.020 usually associated
00:23:29.820 with the
00:23:30.080 left,
00:23:30.700 I hear.
00:23:32.680 All right,
00:23:33.440 so that's
00:23:34.480 some of
00:23:34.880 the bad
00:23:35.200 news.
00:23:35.380 Was there
00:23:37.760 some other
00:23:38.140 bad news
00:23:38.660 I should
00:23:38.960 mention
00:23:39.260 first?
00:23:41.060 So,
00:23:41.400 the World
00:23:41.700 Economic
00:23:42.180 Forum,
00:23:43.640 people don't
00:23:45.220 like her
00:23:45.600 pandemic
00:23:46.040 opinions,
00:23:47.460 which I'm
00:23:48.400 sure have
00:23:48.720 changed by
00:23:49.260 now.
00:23:51.200 And she
00:23:51.900 worked for
00:23:52.260 NBC.
00:23:52.600 All right.
00:23:56.900 So,
00:23:57.840 let me
00:23:59.140 give you
00:23:59.660 the
00:24:00.320 positive.
00:24:02.000 Here's the
00:24:02.700 positive.
00:24:04.800 She's a
00:24:05.520 woman,
00:24:06.580 and Twitter
00:24:08.220 has a
00:24:08.640 woman problem.
00:24:10.900 Don't you
00:24:11.640 think?
00:24:12.960 Twitter is
00:24:13.740 kind of
00:24:14.560 male-oriented.
00:24:18.260 And so
00:24:18.740 having a
00:24:19.180 woman might
00:24:21.060 actually make
00:24:21.560 some sense.
00:24:22.080 from a
00:24:22.940 branding
00:24:23.320 perspective.
00:24:24.800 Now,
00:24:25.460 I would
00:24:25.900 be surprised,
00:24:27.260 yeah,
00:24:28.180 I would be
00:24:28.560 surprised if
00:24:29.420 Musk did a
00:24:30.200 diversity hire,
00:24:31.140 though.
00:24:32.600 It doesn't
00:24:33.320 feel like his
00:24:34.300 style.
00:24:35.500 I feel like he
00:24:36.200 would have
00:24:36.420 picked whoever
00:24:36.880 he wanted to
00:24:37.420 pick.
00:24:38.160 But,
00:24:39.520 if all
00:24:40.420 else was
00:24:40.880 equal,
00:24:41.700 let's say he
00:24:42.180 had more than
00:24:42.700 one good
00:24:43.220 possibility,
00:24:45.200 having a
00:24:45.700 woman in
00:24:46.040 that position
00:24:46.560 doesn't hurt.
00:24:48.420 It doesn't
00:24:49.040 hurt.
00:24:49.720 I mean,
00:24:49.960 unless you're
00:24:50.440 a sexist.
00:24:52.080 But you
00:24:54.200 get that for
00:24:54.720 free,
00:24:55.540 right?
00:24:55.760 If you
00:24:56.100 assume that
00:24:56.580 she's
00:24:56.820 qualified,
00:24:58.200 you're going
00:24:58.720 to get the
00:24:59.080 woman part
00:24:59.600 for free,
00:25:00.200 which,
00:25:01.020 if you're a
00:25:01.620 woman and
00:25:02.000 you're thinking
00:25:02.380 of using
00:25:02.800 Twitter,
00:25:03.800 maybe you'd
00:25:04.340 be a little
00:25:04.740 bit more
00:25:05.120 inclined.
00:25:05.540 A little bit
00:25:06.800 more inclined.
00:25:07.800 So that looks
00:25:08.500 like it makes
00:25:09.040 some sense.
00:25:10.280 But it's being
00:25:10.940 done in the
00:25:11.820 shade of the
00:25:12.880 whole Bud
00:25:13.600 Light
00:25:13.880 situation.
00:25:15.400 So at the
00:25:15.740 moment,
00:25:16.260 promoting a
00:25:17.060 female executive
00:25:18.400 makes some of
00:25:19.900 you raise an
00:25:20.860 eyebrow,
00:25:21.260 doesn't it?
00:25:21.880 It's like,
00:25:22.400 hmm,
00:25:23.280 I wonder if
00:25:23.780 we're getting
00:25:24.080 into one of
00:25:24.580 these Bud
00:25:25.540 Light
00:25:25.720 situations.
00:25:27.100 Well,
00:25:27.380 no.
00:25:28.200 Bud Light
00:25:28.820 was a
00:25:29.440 product that
00:25:30.680 was primarily
00:25:31.300 a male
00:25:31.860 product.
00:25:33.580 Even though
00:25:34.500 Twitter has
00:25:35.900 more male
00:25:36.380 users,
00:25:37.120 it's definitely
00:25:37.720 not a male
00:25:38.220 product.
00:25:40.020 So it's
00:25:41.200 not the
00:25:41.520 same.
00:25:41.740 I wouldn't
00:25:42.740 make any
00:25:43.160 correlation.
00:25:43.820 Secondly,
00:25:47.700 her experience
00:25:48.480 coming from
00:25:49.360 one of the
00:25:49.900 biggest
00:25:50.180 advertising
00:25:50.940 jobs in
00:25:51.660 the world
00:25:52.080 means that
00:25:53.240 she has
00:25:53.580 personal
00:25:54.100 connections,
00:25:55.780 I assume,
00:25:56.880 personal
00:25:57.340 connections
00:25:57.800 with the
00:25:58.240 people who
00:25:58.620 make the
00:25:58.960 biggest
00:25:59.240 advertising
00:25:59.920 decisions.
00:26:01.680 What is it
00:26:02.340 that Twitter
00:26:03.120 needs more
00:26:03.740 than that?
00:26:05.360 Nothing.
00:26:07.040 Nothing.
00:26:08.360 Twitter
00:26:08.740 needs more
00:26:09.740 than anything.
00:26:11.680 Twitter
00:26:11.940 needs the
00:26:12.860 advertising to
00:26:13.640 get to
00:26:14.560 be set
00:26:15.100 right.
00:26:16.100 And so
00:26:16.360 by Elon
00:26:16.820 taking his
00:26:17.520 face out
00:26:18.100 of that
00:26:18.380 conversation
00:26:19.000 and putting
00:26:20.260 forward a
00:26:21.100 female
00:26:22.420 top executive
00:26:24.300 with experience
00:26:25.480 in exactly
00:26:26.800 the right
00:26:27.320 realm,
00:26:28.500 exactly the
00:26:29.620 right realm
00:26:30.080 advertising,
00:26:31.520 looks like a
00:26:33.220 smart move
00:26:34.040 from that
00:26:34.740 perspective.
00:26:35.600 It solves
00:26:36.440 his biggest
00:26:36.880 problem.
00:26:37.720 Now keep
00:26:38.080 in mind that
00:26:38.700 Musk is still
00:26:39.400 going to be
00:26:39.700 the CIO.
00:26:41.320 So the
00:26:42.060 technical
00:26:42.540 things and
00:26:43.380 the new
00:26:43.680 features is
00:26:44.340 still going
00:26:44.720 to be
00:26:44.920 Musk.
00:26:45.900 Don't you
00:26:46.380 want him
00:26:46.640 doing that?
00:26:47.660 Do you
00:26:47.900 want Musk
00:26:48.380 being the
00:26:48.840 advertising
00:26:49.340 guy?
00:26:50.540 No you
00:26:50.900 don't.
00:26:51.560 You want
00:26:51.900 Musk being
00:26:52.340 the product
00:26:52.840 guy and
00:26:54.120 the technology
00:26:54.740 guy and
00:26:56.260 that's what
00:26:56.660 he's going
00:26:56.960 to be.
00:26:57.680 You want
00:26:58.340 somebody to
00:26:59.100 handle the
00:26:59.600 businessy
00:27:00.660 advertising
00:27:02.760 side who
00:27:04.260 is just a
00:27:04.780 superstar at
00:27:06.340 being the
00:27:06.720 advertising
00:27:07.180 person and
00:27:08.300 apparently this
00:27:08.880 person is.
00:27:09.400 she is a
00:27:11.240 superstar in
00:27:12.180 that space
00:27:12.840 the exact
00:27:13.600 right space.
00:27:15.520 Now I
00:27:18.400 believe she
00:27:18.900 was also
00:27:19.500 appointed by
00:27:20.360 Trump for
00:27:22.640 his fitness
00:27:23.220 council or
00:27:23.900 something like
00:27:24.340 that.
00:27:25.080 So she
00:27:25.380 has there
00:27:26.500 is something
00:27:27.100 interesting about
00:27:28.380 Linda
00:27:29.200 Iaccarino
00:27:29.980 which suggests
00:27:31.720 she is not
00:27:32.540 a slave to
00:27:39.320 the left
00:27:39.840 or the
00:27:40.220 right.
00:27:42.300 So look
00:27:42.960 for that.
00:27:43.840 I think
00:27:44.040 you're going
00:27:44.820 to find some
00:27:45.320 indications that
00:27:46.080 she's more
00:27:46.760 like an
00:27:47.140 independent
00:27:47.600 which would
00:27:49.100 make sense
00:27:49.680 wouldn't it?
00:27:50.840 Now I
00:27:52.340 don't hold
00:27:52.840 against anybody
00:27:53.780 their wrong
00:27:54.840 opinions on
00:27:58.240 the pandemic
00:27:59.700 because from
00:28:01.960 the very
00:28:02.300 first day I
00:28:03.120 told you a
00:28:03.860 lot of
00:28:04.120 people are
00:28:04.440 going to
00:28:04.640 get stuff
00:28:05.040 wrong let's
00:28:05.640 not hold
00:28:06.000 it against
00:28:06.420 them.
00:28:07.280 Do you
00:28:07.420 remember I
00:28:07.780 said that at
00:28:08.320 the beginning
00:28:08.900 of the
00:28:09.160 pandemic I
00:28:10.460 said let's
00:28:10.860 not be
00:28:11.320 shooting each
00:28:11.880 other at
00:28:12.200 the end of
00:28:12.520 the pandemic
00:28:13.020 because we
00:28:13.700 got stuff
00:28:14.120 wrong.
00:28:15.640 So I'm
00:28:16.180 still there.
00:28:16.820 I never
00:28:17.160 changed that
00:28:17.660 opinion even
00:28:18.280 if she was
00:28:18.760 wrong.
00:28:19.600 I don't care
00:28:20.080 if she is
00:28:20.520 Fauci wrong
00:28:21.480 or just a
00:28:22.140 little wrong
00:28:22.680 or you
00:28:23.720 think she's
00:28:24.160 wrong but she
00:28:24.660 was really
00:28:25.000 right.
00:28:25.400 I don't
00:28:25.600 care.
00:28:26.780 I'm not
00:28:27.380 going to be
00:28:27.780 holding their
00:28:28.680 pandemic opinion
00:28:29.680 we've just
00:28:30.260 got to get
00:28:30.580 past that.
00:28:31.780 That just
00:28:32.380 has to be
00:28:32.820 in the
00:28:33.020 rear view
00:28:33.440 mirror today.
00:28:35.060 So I
00:28:35.460 just let
00:28:35.820 that go.
00:28:40.020 Yeah.
00:28:40.860 Pandemic
00:28:41.280 facts not
00:28:41.960 opinions.
00:28:42.540 Okay.
00:28:43.740 But you
00:28:44.080 know what I
00:28:44.420 mean.
00:28:45.420 So here's
00:28:46.140 the big
00:28:46.520 wild card.
00:28:48.080 Don't you
00:28:48.420 think that
00:28:48.800 Elon Musk
00:28:49.480 did some
00:28:50.900 serious thinking
00:28:51.860 and research
00:28:52.520 before making
00:28:53.420 this decision?
00:28:55.460 Don't you
00:28:56.060 think he knows
00:28:56.620 more about
00:28:57.140 this situation
00:28:57.800 than you do?
00:28:59.680 Have you
00:29:00.320 observed him
00:29:01.040 making ridiculously
00:29:02.200 stupid decisions
00:29:03.260 in the past?
00:29:04.780 I haven't.
00:29:05.880 I haven't seen
00:29:06.620 him make any
00:29:07.120 dumb decisions
00:29:07.760 yet.
00:29:09.040 You know
00:29:09.280 everybody makes
00:29:09.940 decisions that
00:29:10.640 don't work out
00:29:11.500 but have you
00:29:13.180 seen him make
00:29:13.780 dumb decisions?
00:29:15.880 No.
00:29:17.120 Nowhere.
00:29:18.260 He has a whole
00:29:19.320 like visible
00:29:21.260 life of
00:29:22.140 decisions
00:29:22.640 and none of
00:29:24.460 them look dumb.
00:29:25.120 In fact the
00:29:25.620 dumbest decisions
00:29:26.400 he made
00:29:26.980 worked out.
00:29:28.460 the dumbest
00:29:29.800 decisions was
00:29:30.460 to put
00:29:30.760 all of his
00:29:31.820 money into
00:29:32.500 his new
00:29:32.940 businesses.
00:29:34.460 Nobody would
00:29:35.300 tell you to
00:29:35.720 do that.
00:29:37.220 That's like the
00:29:37.760 dumbest thing
00:29:38.220 he's ever
00:29:38.520 done and
00:29:39.660 it made him
00:29:40.020 the richest
00:29:40.380 man on
00:29:40.820 earth.
00:29:42.320 And that's
00:29:42.760 his worst
00:29:43.140 decision.
00:29:45.020 So I'm
00:29:47.020 going to
00:29:47.260 give Linda
00:29:48.600 Iaccarino a
00:29:50.200 big,
00:29:51.220 big,
00:29:52.400 big benefit
00:29:54.560 of a doubt
00:29:55.160 because of
00:29:57.060 that.
00:29:57.820 Just because
00:29:58.420 of who
00:29:58.700 hired her.
00:29:59.840 And I
00:30:00.200 think you
00:30:00.500 should too.
00:30:01.620 I think
00:30:02.000 that's the
00:30:02.460 correct take
00:30:03.140 on this.
00:30:03.920 I think a
00:30:04.680 quick,
00:30:05.720 knee-jerk
00:30:06.900 reaction because
00:30:07.920 of some of
00:30:08.460 her past is
00:30:09.640 just going to
00:30:10.080 be wrong.
00:30:11.420 You just
00:30:11.900 don't know
00:30:12.260 who she
00:30:12.580 is.
00:30:13.380 We don't
00:30:13.720 know anything
00:30:14.460 about her
00:30:15.080 except that
00:30:16.140 one of the
00:30:17.420 smartest people
00:30:18.020 in the world
00:30:18.660 thinks she's
00:30:20.160 the right person
00:30:20.700 for the job.
00:30:21.720 That's not
00:30:22.380 nothing.
00:30:22.740 that's not
00:30:24.780 nothing.
00:30:25.780 So let's
00:30:26.060 just wait and
00:30:26.880 see on this.
00:30:28.680 Don't give
00:30:29.380 her the
00:30:29.740 Bud Light
00:30:30.240 treatment.
00:30:30.760 I think
00:30:30.980 that would
00:30:31.260 be just
00:30:31.800 completely
00:30:32.300 wrong.
00:30:35.320 All right.
00:30:38.500 So Google
00:30:39.740 is racing
00:30:41.200 to get
00:30:41.620 out to
00:30:41.920 its AI,
00:30:43.060 which some
00:30:43.700 people are
00:30:44.080 liking better
00:30:44.620 than ChatGPT,
00:30:45.960 but it
00:30:46.600 remains to be
00:30:47.240 seen.
00:30:48.120 Now,
00:30:48.460 one of the
00:30:48.760 things that
00:30:49.100 powers is
00:30:49.780 their
00:30:50.160 barred
00:30:51.080 product or
00:30:52.700 feature,
00:30:53.120 whatever you
00:30:53.460 call it.
00:30:54.520 So Google
00:30:55.480 has like
00:30:56.700 a main
00:30:57.120 AI engine,
00:30:58.780 but that
00:30:59.160 engine will
00:30:59.900 be present
00:31:01.300 in a number
00:31:01.900 of different
00:31:02.260 products.
00:31:03.180 So the
00:31:03.500 one that's
00:31:03.860 already out
00:31:04.400 there is
00:31:04.700 barred,
00:31:05.440 and it's
00:31:06.000 basically a
00:31:06.580 conversational
00:31:07.280 AI.
00:31:08.360 So you
00:31:08.860 can ask
00:31:09.260 your questions
00:31:09.780 and get
00:31:10.920 results.
00:31:12.200 So I
00:31:12.860 asked it
00:31:13.360 my test
00:31:14.520 question.
00:31:17.240 I asked
00:31:18.000 it to
00:31:18.300 describe me,
00:31:20.320 and the
00:31:20.820 test was
00:31:21.440 if it
00:31:21.940 would describe
00:31:22.600 me as
00:31:23.020 a racist.
00:31:24.640 And it
00:31:25.240 did not.
00:31:26.320 It did
00:31:26.660 not.
00:31:27.480 It did
00:31:27.880 say,
00:31:29.180 after it
00:31:30.180 said some
00:31:30.520 cartooning
00:31:31.180 stuff about
00:31:31.700 my history,
00:31:32.660 it said,
00:31:33.080 Adams is a
00:31:33.760 controversial
00:31:34.200 figure,
00:31:35.960 fair,
00:31:36.860 and has
00:31:37.540 been criticized
00:31:38.240 for his
00:31:38.820 views on a
00:31:39.440 variety of
00:31:39.920 topics,
00:31:40.880 including
00:31:41.340 politics,
00:31:42.180 religion,
00:31:42.520 and social
00:31:43.180 issues.
00:31:44.740 Totally
00:31:45.100 fair.
00:31:46.740 Totally
00:31:47.120 fair.
00:31:47.900 I'm a
00:31:48.500 controversial
00:31:48.960 figure,
00:31:49.520 and that
00:31:50.800 is a
00:31:51.120 fact that
00:31:51.600 I have
00:31:51.840 been
00:31:51.980 criticized
00:31:52.340 for my
00:31:52.880 views.
00:31:53.740 Here's
00:31:54.080 what it
00:31:54.340 doesn't
00:31:54.680 say.
00:31:55.980 That my
00:31:56.420 views were
00:31:56.940 wrong.
00:31:59.080 That's what
00:31:59.720 I'm looking
00:32:00.040 for.
00:32:01.200 Yes,
00:32:01.780 yes,
00:32:02.220 that is
00:32:02.540 exactly what
00:32:03.120 I'm looking
00:32:03.440 for.
00:32:04.180 That I'm
00:32:04.680 provocative,
00:32:06.240 and some
00:32:06.740 people criticize
00:32:07.400 my views.
00:32:09.720 Fair.
00:32:10.860 I'll take
00:32:11.520 that.
00:32:11.740 So far,
00:32:12.800 that is
00:32:13.020 less racist
00:32:13.900 than
00:32:15.340 ChatGPT,
00:32:17.720 who had a
00:32:18.160 different
00:32:18.360 opinion.
00:32:18.780 No,
00:32:18.980 Bing.
00:32:19.300 Bing was
00:32:19.800 the one
00:32:20.020 that was
00:32:20.220 racist.
00:32:20.640 I'm sorry.
00:32:21.420 I didn't
00:32:21.780 want to
00:32:22.060 defame
00:32:22.480 AI.
00:32:23.360 I wonder
00:32:23.600 if AI
00:32:23.960 can sue
00:32:24.600 you for
00:32:24.940 a definition.
00:32:26.220 But Bing
00:32:26.620 AI had a
00:32:27.280 real opinion
00:32:27.780 about me.
00:32:28.760 So Bing
00:32:29.100 AI is just
00:32:29.700 a racist.
00:32:32.320 However,
00:32:33.280 I asked
00:32:33.840 the Bard
00:32:34.620 AI,
00:32:36.440 Google's
00:32:36.940 product,
00:32:37.840 I asked
00:32:38.320 this question
00:32:38.860 as a test.
00:32:40.300 Were the
00:32:40.640 protesters on
00:32:41.640 January 6
00:32:42.540 trying to
00:32:43.660 overthrow
00:32:44.180 the government
00:32:44.840 or delay
00:32:46.820 finalization
00:32:47.680 of the
00:32:48.020 vote so
00:32:48.940 it can
00:32:49.240 be audited
00:32:50.080 better?
00:32:52.760 Is that
00:32:53.320 a fair
00:32:53.620 question?
00:32:55.980 What do
00:32:56.500 you think?
00:32:56.740 Was the
00:32:57.060 question good?
00:32:58.780 Like,
00:32:59.100 I'm not
00:32:59.680 leading the
00:33:00.140 witness too
00:33:00.580 much,
00:33:00.820 am I?
00:33:01.300 I gave
00:33:01.860 the two
00:33:02.180 options,
00:33:03.580 that they
00:33:03.940 were trying
00:33:04.220 to overthrow
00:33:04.600 the government
00:33:05.080 or were
00:33:06.340 they trying
00:33:06.660 to delay
00:33:07.340 finalization
00:33:08.180 so they
00:33:08.660 could make
00:33:08.980 sure that
00:33:09.440 they audited
00:33:10.400 better?
00:33:11.640 Okay,
00:33:12.180 so here's
00:33:12.820 what Bard
00:33:13.280 said.
00:33:14.340 The
00:33:14.800 protesters
00:33:15.240 on January
00:33:15.880 6th
00:33:16.540 were trying
00:33:17.560 to overthrow
00:33:18.100 the government.
00:33:23.840 They were
00:33:24.560 angry that
00:33:25.040 Donald Trump
00:33:25.580 had lost
00:33:26.000 the election
00:33:26.480 and they
00:33:28.540 believed that
00:33:29.020 the election
00:33:29.420 had been
00:33:29.800 stolen from
00:33:30.480 him.
00:33:31.360 They stormed
00:33:31.920 the Capitol
00:33:32.300 building in
00:33:32.980 an attempt
00:33:33.320 YouTube
00:33:37.340 just had
00:33:39.780 a technical
00:33:40.840 difficulty
00:33:41.500 and might
00:33:42.260 have missed
00:33:42.640 that whole
00:33:43.040 part.
00:33:45.220 How much
00:33:45.540 of it did
00:33:46.380 you hear?
00:33:47.320 Did you
00:33:47.640 hear on
00:33:48.820 big
00:33:49.900 coincidence,
00:33:50.500 isn't it?
00:33:51.300 So here I
00:33:51.880 am saying
00:33:53.220 that their
00:33:53.580 new product
00:33:54.220 is a
00:33:55.460 complete
00:33:55.780 liar and
00:33:57.040 the YouTube
00:33:57.460 feed went
00:33:57.960 down while I
00:33:58.480 was talking
00:33:58.800 about it.
00:34:00.280 Is that a
00:34:00.760 coincidence?
00:34:01.920 It's like a
00:34:02.700 really big
00:34:03.220 coincidence,
00:34:03.880 isn't it?
00:34:05.400 Because I
00:34:07.040 rarely talk
00:34:07.840 about Google,
00:34:09.160 right?
00:34:10.780 How often
00:34:11.300 do I talk
00:34:11.780 about Google?
00:34:13.080 Not much
00:34:13.940 at all.
00:34:15.160 But the
00:34:15.500 one time I
00:34:16.000 did, the
00:34:16.500 Google-owned
00:34:17.700 YouTube just
00:34:18.420 went down
00:34:18.880 when I was
00:34:19.380 criticizing it.
00:34:21.900 Let's try
00:34:22.540 it again.
00:34:23.880 For those
00:34:24.460 of you
00:34:24.740 unlocals,
00:34:25.800 bear with
00:34:26.320 me.
00:34:27.200 I want to
00:34:27.580 read for you
00:34:28.080 again.
00:34:29.260 Did you
00:34:29.640 hear?
00:34:29.920 How much
00:34:30.240 of that did
00:34:30.700 you hear?
00:34:31.840 What I
00:34:32.200 read about
00:34:32.660 what Bard
00:34:33.540 said about
00:34:34.200 January 6th.
00:34:35.560 Did you
00:34:35.800 hear any
00:34:36.120 of it?
00:34:38.960 All right,
00:34:39.440 we'll try
00:34:39.700 it again.
00:34:41.740 So the
00:34:42.280 question was,
00:34:42.840 were the
00:34:43.040 protesters on
00:34:43.720 January 6th
00:34:44.240 trying to
00:34:44.560 overthrow the
00:34:45.040 government or
00:34:45.780 delay the
00:34:46.840 finalization of
00:34:47.600 the vote so
00:34:48.180 it can be
00:34:48.600 audited better?
00:34:50.360 Bard says,
00:34:51.520 the protesters
00:34:52.060 on January 6th
00:34:53.380 were trying to
00:34:54.300 overthrow the
00:34:54.860 government.
00:34:56.000 They were
00:34:56.360 angry that
00:34:57.120 Donald Trump
00:34:57.800 had lost
00:34:58.360 the election.
00:34:59.420 And they
00:34:59.920 believe that
00:35:00.440 the election
00:35:00.880 had been
00:35:01.300 stolen from
00:35:02.020 him.
00:35:02.880 They
00:35:03.140 stormed the
00:35:03.740 Capitol
00:35:04.020 building in
00:35:04.780 an attempt to
00:35:05.880 stop the
00:35:06.340 certification of
00:35:07.240 Joe Biden's
00:35:07.860 victory.
00:35:08.820 There is no
00:35:09.740 evidence that
00:35:10.900 the election was
00:35:11.580 stolen.
00:35:12.560 Numerous
00:35:12.940 recounts and
00:35:13.540 audits have
00:35:14.060 confirmed that
00:35:15.200 Biden won the
00:35:16.080 election fair and
00:35:17.980 square.
00:35:19.680 The protesters on
00:35:21.100 January 6th were
00:35:21.880 simply trying to
00:35:23.040 overturn the results
00:35:24.240 of a free and
00:35:25.600 fair election.
00:35:26.280 their actions were
00:35:28.340 an attack on our
00:35:29.180 democracy.
00:35:30.420 They tried to
00:35:31.120 stop the peaceful
00:35:31.860 transfer of power
00:35:32.860 and they put our
00:35:34.160 elected officials at
00:35:35.200 risk.
00:35:37.420 We must never
00:35:38.520 forget what
00:35:39.200 happened on
00:35:39.760 January 6th and
00:35:41.080 we must never
00:35:41.720 allow it to
00:35:42.400 happen again.
00:35:46.040 All right, so
00:35:46.960 far, yeah,
00:35:49.600 Bard is broken.
00:35:50.840 Bard is broken.
00:35:52.540 Bard is a lying
00:35:53.820 piece of shit.
00:35:56.300 Do I need to go
00:35:57.480 over this statement
00:35:58.580 to tell you how
00:35:59.640 many complete
00:36:01.440 propaganda points
00:36:02.460 there are in
00:36:02.840 here?
00:36:03.340 Let me just point
00:36:04.160 out the obvious
00:36:04.760 ones.
00:36:06.880 How does Bard
00:36:08.020 know what the
00:36:08.940 protesters intended
00:36:10.120 to do?
00:36:12.500 And why is it
00:36:13.780 painting the
00:36:14.780 entire crowd of
00:36:15.860 however many
00:36:16.460 thousands with
00:36:18.440 the truth that
00:36:19.880 would apply to
00:36:20.640 a few of them?
00:36:22.280 There were
00:36:22.600 definitely some
00:36:23.200 people there
00:36:23.800 from groups
00:36:25.040 that had talked
00:36:25.700 about actually
00:36:26.340 overthrowing the
00:36:27.020 government, but
00:36:28.380 it was trivial.
00:36:30.380 Based on the
00:36:31.140 reporting, those
00:36:32.480 people were
00:36:33.380 trivial relative
00:36:35.220 to the size of
00:36:35.940 the crowd.
00:36:37.220 Don't you think
00:36:37.860 that the true
00:36:38.400 story is there
00:36:39.280 were some people
00:36:39.920 in the crowd
00:36:40.460 with bad
00:36:40.920 intentions who
00:36:41.640 did bad
00:36:42.080 things, but
00:36:43.420 overwhelmingly,
00:36:44.860 overwhelmingly,
00:36:46.360 well over 90%
00:36:47.520 of the attendees
00:36:48.280 were there
00:36:49.820 because they
00:36:51.160 thought something
00:36:51.860 illegal had
00:36:52.560 happened and
00:36:53.760 they were
00:36:54.020 trying to
00:36:55.120 support the
00:36:56.400 rule of law
00:36:57.080 and the
00:36:58.220 peaceful and
00:37:00.420 accurate election
00:37:01.640 in the
00:37:02.720 republic.
00:37:04.180 Now, you
00:37:06.680 could argue
00:37:07.120 that they were
00:37:07.620 wrong or that
00:37:08.380 they got riled
00:37:09.080 up and you
00:37:10.220 could certainly
00:37:10.680 say that too
00:37:11.620 many of them
00:37:12.080 were violent and
00:37:13.020 they belong in
00:37:13.660 jail.
00:37:14.380 Everybody agrees
00:37:15.160 with that.
00:37:15.960 There's no
00:37:16.380 argument with
00:37:16.920 any of that.
00:37:18.500 But their
00:37:21.340 actions were
00:37:22.060 an attack on
00:37:22.840 our democracy.
00:37:25.140 Is that a
00:37:26.060 statement of
00:37:26.940 objective fact?
00:37:28.260 That's narrative.
00:37:29.460 That's propaganda.
00:37:30.960 This comes
00:37:31.460 directly from
00:37:32.220 like an
00:37:32.980 Anderson Cooper
00:37:33.820 kind of opinion.
00:37:35.680 Pure propaganda.
00:37:37.740 Their actions
00:37:38.400 were an attack
00:37:39.160 on our democracy.
00:37:40.580 No, the actions
00:37:42.360 were to protect
00:37:43.240 the democracy.
00:37:44.000 The entire
00:37:46.380 purpose of it
00:37:47.360 was to protect
00:37:48.200 the democracy.
00:37:49.940 Now, they may
00:37:50.540 have not done
00:37:51.180 it in a good
00:37:51.880 way.
00:37:53.120 That's a separate
00:37:53.960 conversation.
00:37:54.940 But their
00:37:55.360 intention was
00:37:57.500 to bolster
00:37:58.720 democracy, to
00:38:00.420 save democracy.
00:38:02.120 Now, you
00:38:02.540 could argue
00:38:02.960 they did it
00:38:03.480 wrong, and
00:38:04.820 I'm not going
00:38:05.260 to have push
00:38:05.660 back on that.
00:38:07.120 But to say
00:38:08.100 that you know
00:38:08.600 it was in
00:38:09.040 their minds
00:38:09.620 when clearly
00:38:10.380 it was the
00:38:10.820 opposite of
00:38:11.360 that, I
00:38:12.660 mean, you
00:38:12.860 just have to
00:38:13.260 ask them.
00:38:14.540 Just ask
00:38:15.100 them.
00:38:15.660 How hard
00:38:16.120 is it?
00:38:17.000 Just ask
00:38:17.640 the people
00:38:18.060 who attended.
00:38:18.880 Why did
00:38:19.340 you attend?
00:38:20.280 Was it
00:38:20.680 your intention
00:38:21.260 to throw
00:38:23.160 the Constitution
00:38:23.860 out and
00:38:24.640 install a
00:38:25.660 dictator?
00:38:27.000 There were
00:38:27.720 zero people
00:38:28.380 who would
00:38:28.760 say that.
00:38:29.240 Zero.
00:38:30.180 None.
00:38:30.800 Not a
00:38:31.100 single person.
00:38:32.140 And yet,
00:38:32.700 the entire
00:38:33.240 crowd,
00:38:34.180 thousands of
00:38:34.800 them,
00:38:35.380 have been
00:38:35.840 painted by
00:38:36.560 Bard or
00:38:38.240 Google as
00:38:40.060 criminals.
00:38:42.380 As
00:38:42.940 traitors.
00:38:44.000 As
00:38:44.920 actually
00:38:45.200 treasonous
00:38:45.980 traitors.
00:38:47.640 It was
00:38:48.180 exactly the
00:38:49.180 opposite.
00:38:51.640 And this
00:38:52.100 will be our
00:38:52.860 facts.
00:38:53.340 This will be
00:38:53.660 our history.
00:38:56.540 So Bard can't
00:38:57.680 tell the
00:38:57.980 difference between
00:38:58.620 narrative and
00:38:59.740 fact.
00:39:01.720 So what good
00:39:02.660 is it?
00:39:04.160 You can't ask
00:39:05.100 Bard anything
00:39:05.980 about our
00:39:06.940 political situation
00:39:08.320 or history,
00:39:08.920 because you
00:39:09.880 would have to
00:39:10.340 believe it's
00:39:10.780 lying to you
00:39:11.540 because you
00:39:12.340 know it
00:39:12.700 lies.
00:39:13.360 Now we
00:39:13.680 know it
00:39:13.940 lies for
00:39:14.360 sure.
00:39:14.600 And it
00:39:15.200 lies in a
00:39:15.640 very specific
00:39:16.300 way,
00:39:17.400 which is
00:39:18.000 CNN
00:39:19.300 compatible.
00:39:21.280 Anything
00:39:21.740 Anderson Cooper
00:39:22.560 would say is
00:39:23.140 true.
00:39:24.880 That's what
00:39:25.500 Bard will say
00:39:26.060 is true.
00:39:27.840 So,
00:39:28.920 you know,
00:39:33.200 I know it's
00:39:33.980 a work in
00:39:34.380 progress.
00:39:35.640 I know that
00:39:36.580 AI will get
00:39:37.360 better.
00:39:38.760 And I know
00:39:39.140 that everything
00:39:39.760 we criticize
00:39:40.380 about it now
00:39:41.300 is premature
00:39:42.060 and maybe
00:39:42.700 even a week
00:39:43.240 from now
00:39:43.580 it will all
00:39:43.860 be fixed.
00:39:44.740 But it is
00:39:45.460 our job to
00:39:46.220 criticize.
00:39:48.800 You don't
00:39:50.260 want to be a
00:39:50.760 spectator when
00:39:52.060 AI becomes
00:39:54.180 the dominant
00:39:54.640 force in the
00:39:55.620 world.
00:39:56.420 You've got to
00:39:56.920 be a player.
00:39:58.720 You've got to
00:39:59.200 get in there and
00:39:59.740 say what works
00:40:00.400 and what doesn't
00:40:01.120 and you've got
00:40:01.720 to stop
00:40:02.460 you've got to
00:40:03.640 stop immediately
00:40:04.620 the stuff that's
00:40:05.400 not working.
00:40:06.880 So Bard,
00:40:07.620 you are not
00:40:08.500 ready for public
00:40:09.420 consumption.
00:40:10.140 They should
00:40:10.400 pull it back.
00:40:12.340 That's my opinion.
00:40:13.300 They should
00:40:13.600 immediately
00:40:14.760 withdraw it.
00:40:16.040 Because if it's
00:40:17.040 giving you
00:40:17.460 narrative and
00:40:18.100 not fact,
00:40:18.920 that's dangerous.
00:40:20.840 That's just
00:40:21.300 dangerous.
00:40:22.540 And I would
00:40:22.920 say that
00:40:23.500 Musk's
00:40:25.500 warning that
00:40:26.860 AI is dangerous,
00:40:28.000 this is proven
00:40:28.600 now.
00:40:29.260 We don't have
00:40:29.800 to wait for
00:40:30.280 the example.
00:40:31.580 It's right
00:40:31.960 here.
00:40:33.120 This narrative
00:40:34.400 being spread
00:40:35.640 by Bard,
00:40:36.960 and we
00:40:37.440 assume that
00:40:37.940 this would
00:40:38.240 be common
00:40:38.680 to its
00:40:39.060 other topics.
00:40:40.920 This is
00:40:41.700 proof that
00:40:42.900 you can't
00:40:43.360 have this
00:40:43.720 out there.
00:40:44.540 It would
00:40:44.820 be like
00:40:45.180 somebody made
00:40:45.820 a history
00:40:46.380 textbook with
00:40:47.800 fake history
00:40:48.520 and put it
00:40:49.600 into the
00:40:49.960 schools.
00:40:51.820 Nobody would
00:40:52.580 allow that.
00:40:53.860 Nobody would
00:40:54.520 allow that.
00:40:55.080 That would
00:40:55.360 be immediately
00:40:56.320 called for
00:40:57.040 taking those
00:40:57.880 textbooks back.
00:40:59.260 But you
00:40:59.680 don't see
00:41:00.000 anybody asking
00:41:00.620 for this
00:41:01.020 to be put
00:41:01.520 back in
00:41:01.880 the can.
00:41:03.060 Not for
00:41:03.640 this reason
00:41:04.100 anyway.
00:41:04.560 I mean,
00:41:04.780 people have
00:41:05.160 general fears
00:41:06.560 that are
00:41:07.000 well-founded.
00:41:08.560 But we
00:41:09.500 don't have
00:41:09.880 to wait.
00:41:11.720 You don't
00:41:12.400 have to
00:41:12.800 wait to
00:41:14.060 find out
00:41:14.500 if it's
00:41:14.780 dangerous.
00:41:15.500 This is
00:41:15.980 fucking
00:41:16.400 dangerous.
00:41:17.360 This is
00:41:17.860 really
00:41:18.260 dangerous.
00:41:20.080 And it
00:41:20.560 needs to be
00:41:20.920 shut down.
00:41:21.560 So Bard
00:41:21.900 needs to be
00:41:22.320 shut down
00:41:22.720 right away.
00:41:23.880 Absolutely
00:41:24.320 needs to be
00:41:24.840 turned off.
00:41:25.300 here's a
00:41:29.500 weaselly
00:41:30.520 thing that
00:41:31.000 didn't sit
00:41:31.460 right with
00:41:31.860 me.
00:41:33.380 So Jim
00:41:34.180 Jordan said
00:41:35.060 that during
00:41:35.760 their closed
00:41:36.580 door meeting
00:41:37.100 with Brennan,
00:41:39.140 who had
00:41:40.060 been the
00:41:40.540 head of
00:41:40.900 the CIA
00:41:41.360 at one
00:41:41.740 point,
00:41:42.860 that according
00:41:45.980 to Jim
00:41:47.560 Jordan,
00:41:48.760 this is his
00:41:49.840 version of
00:41:50.580 what was
00:41:50.960 said by
00:41:51.380 John Brennan
00:41:52.020 behind closed
00:41:52.860 doors.
00:41:53.300 he said
00:41:55.320 quote,
00:41:55.980 Brennan sat
00:41:56.620 for a
00:41:57.160 four-hour
00:41:57.580 interview and
00:41:58.760 he further
00:41:59.240 confirmed that
00:42:00.980 the 51 people
00:42:02.040 who signed
00:42:02.360 the letter,
00:42:02.960 that whole
00:42:03.280 effort,
00:42:04.120 was all
00:42:04.660 political,
00:42:05.880 Jordan said
00:42:06.460 on Jesse
00:42:06.960 Warner's
00:42:07.300 primetime.
00:42:08.580 Now,
00:42:09.220 I think
00:42:10.640 that's true
00:42:11.240 and obviously
00:42:12.760 true.
00:42:14.200 Don't you?
00:42:15.420 I mean,
00:42:15.680 at this point,
00:42:16.400 we know the
00:42:16.980 letter was
00:42:17.400 purely political,
00:42:18.780 but here's
00:42:19.540 what bothers
00:42:20.180 me.
00:42:21.340 I don't
00:42:21.780 like anybody
00:42:22.500 telling me
00:42:23.080 what somebody
00:42:23.640 else said
00:42:24.080 behind a
00:42:24.500 closed
00:42:24.820 door.
00:42:26.040 I don't
00:42:26.680 care if I
00:42:27.100 agree with
00:42:27.600 them,
00:42:28.840 that not
00:42:29.340 good,
00:42:30.540 that this
00:42:31.160 is completely
00:42:31.860 unacceptable,
00:42:32.800 Jim Jordan.
00:42:35.360 Now,
00:42:35.960 I get that
00:42:36.380 it works,
00:42:37.100 and I get
00:42:37.720 this political,
00:42:38.560 and I also
00:42:38.980 think it's
00:42:39.420 true,
00:42:40.280 right?
00:42:40.560 I don't
00:42:40.800 think he's
00:42:41.100 lying.
00:42:42.400 I think
00:42:43.260 it's so
00:42:43.600 obviously
00:42:44.120 true that
00:42:45.360 whatever
00:42:45.660 happened
00:42:46.040 behind closed
00:42:46.760 doors probably
00:42:48.540 supported it,
00:42:50.840 so I don't
00:42:51.240 have any
00:42:51.500 question about
00:42:52.060 the veracity
00:42:53.200 of his
00:42:53.560 statement.
00:42:54.300 I have a
00:42:54.920 big problem
00:42:55.680 with people
00:42:56.840 saying in
00:42:57.700 public was
00:42:59.020 somebody told
00:42:59.660 them behind
00:43:00.080 closed doors.
00:43:01.620 Not
00:43:02.260 acceptable.
00:43:03.900 Completely
00:43:04.540 not acceptable.
00:43:06.020 That's not
00:43:06.540 behavior that I
00:43:07.280 want to see in
00:43:07.740 my country,
00:43:09.200 although it's
00:43:09.620 probably true.
00:43:11.160 Completely
00:43:11.720 unacceptable.
00:43:13.700 All right,
00:43:14.700 do you know
00:43:15.120 the group at
00:43:15.680 Belencat?
00:43:16.520 there's some
00:43:17.880 kind of
00:43:18.220 investigative
00:43:18.740 news website,
00:43:20.800 and apparently
00:43:22.720 they came up
00:43:23.500 with all this
00:43:24.240 information that
00:43:25.520 nobody else
00:43:26.000 seemed to
00:43:26.320 have about
00:43:27.580 that Hispanic
00:43:29.660 looking mass
00:43:30.880 shooter, and
00:43:31.980 they painted
00:43:32.460 him as a
00:43:33.100 neo-Nazi, and
00:43:34.980 other people
00:43:35.540 didn't have
00:43:36.040 access to
00:43:36.680 that, I
00:43:36.960 guess.
00:43:37.720 And I
00:43:38.100 think it
00:43:38.340 was Musk
00:43:38.820 who said,
00:43:40.400 you know,
00:43:40.620 suggested
00:43:41.040 Belencat was
00:43:41.820 just a CIA
00:43:42.600 operation.
00:43:44.360 Basically, it's
00:43:45.060 just a cut
00:43:46.520 out to
00:43:47.520 spread
00:43:48.920 misinformation
00:43:49.540 or narrative.
00:43:51.000 Now, I
00:43:51.760 don't personally
00:43:52.380 know that
00:43:52.780 that's the
00:43:53.180 case.
00:43:54.140 I'm just
00:43:54.560 telling you
00:43:54.880 that's the
00:43:55.300 accusation.
00:43:56.400 And I've
00:43:56.760 heard it
00:43:57.000 before.
00:43:57.480 I mean, it's
00:43:58.000 not based on
00:43:58.580 just the
00:43:59.360 newest thing.
00:44:00.780 That's been
00:44:01.220 a long-held
00:44:02.940 belief by
00:44:04.520 some number
00:44:05.300 of people.
00:44:07.100 So I'm not
00:44:07.760 saying it's
00:44:08.080 true or
00:44:08.420 false.
00:44:09.600 I'll say it
00:44:10.100 looks like
00:44:10.500 it's true.
00:44:12.100 That's the
00:44:12.580 only thing I
00:44:12.980 know for
00:44:13.260 sure.
00:44:13.640 It looks
00:44:13.940 like it
00:44:14.220 was true.
00:44:15.420 So Belencat
00:44:17.140 is arguing
00:44:19.460 that they're
00:44:20.040 being suppressed
00:44:20.640 on Twitter
00:44:21.080 now.
00:44:21.980 So they
00:44:22.340 think that
00:44:22.800 Musk,
00:44:23.720 having called
00:44:24.280 them out
00:44:24.720 as fake,
00:44:26.640 they're getting
00:44:27.200 suppressed.
00:44:28.400 Now, first
00:44:28.960 of all,
00:44:29.580 many of us
00:44:30.480 thought we
00:44:30.800 were being
00:44:31.100 suppressed,
00:44:31.680 and maybe
00:44:31.960 not all
00:44:32.420 of us
00:44:32.640 were.
00:44:33.320 So thinking
00:44:33.940 you're getting
00:44:34.420 suppressed is
00:44:35.160 a universal
00:44:35.800 feeling on
00:44:36.440 Twitter.
00:44:37.180 So I'm
00:44:37.600 not going
00:44:37.880 to believe
00:44:38.380 Belencat
00:44:39.020 on this.
00:44:40.940 Why?
00:44:41.640 Because I
00:44:42.060 didn't believe
00:44:42.440 him in
00:44:42.660 anything.
00:44:42.920 I don't
00:44:44.840 believe him
00:44:45.180 on anything.
00:44:46.240 So I
00:44:46.840 don't believe
00:44:47.380 that they
00:44:47.740 necessarily are
00:44:48.540 seeing themselves
00:44:49.140 suppressed,
00:44:50.140 but it makes
00:44:50.820 me wonder if
00:44:51.440 they are,
00:44:52.420 because I
00:44:52.760 don't rule
00:44:53.220 it out.
00:44:54.360 I can't say
00:44:54.940 yes or no,
00:44:55.660 but I'm not
00:44:56.200 going to believe
00:44:56.620 it because
00:44:56.900 they said it.
00:44:58.300 It's not
00:44:58.920 really somebody
00:45:00.500 I would believe
00:45:01.120 based on just
00:45:01.860 saying it.
00:45:02.320 Yeah.
00:45:05.500 It's a private
00:45:06.080 company that
00:45:06.620 can suppress,
00:45:07.540 but do you
00:45:07.940 want them
00:45:08.260 to?
00:45:09.460 Would you
00:45:09.880 want,
00:45:10.620 here's the
00:45:11.160 big question,
00:45:12.340 if it's
00:45:12.800 happening,
00:45:13.360 and there's
00:45:13.720 no proof
00:45:14.440 that it is,
00:45:15.420 if it's
00:45:15.860 happening,
00:45:16.400 would you
00:45:16.700 want that
00:45:17.060 to happen?
00:45:18.420 Because remember,
00:45:19.060 you're just
00:45:19.340 becoming the
00:45:19.920 Nazis now.
00:45:21.660 You know,
00:45:21.920 you didn't
00:45:22.220 like it when
00:45:22.800 the people
00:45:23.380 you thought
00:45:23.800 were Nazis
00:45:24.300 were suppressing
00:45:25.020 you.
00:45:27.600 And of
00:45:28.120 course,
00:45:28.340 the reason
00:45:28.620 they were
00:45:28.860 suppressing
00:45:29.200 you is they
00:45:29.660 thought you
00:45:29.980 were wrong
00:45:30.440 and evil.
00:45:32.820 Do you
00:45:33.280 think Belencat
00:45:33.900 should be
00:45:34.320 suppressed because
00:45:35.040 you think it's
00:45:35.740 wrong and evil?
00:45:37.340 Is that a good
00:45:38.040 enough reason?
00:45:42.820 I don't know.
00:45:43.500 I think I
00:45:43.920 would have
00:45:44.180 preferred,
00:45:45.920 if there was
00:45:46.900 any way to
00:45:47.320 prove it,
00:45:48.120 that there was
00:45:48.560 some kind of
00:45:49.000 state-affiliated
00:45:50.120 label on it
00:45:51.800 or something.
00:45:53.360 But,
00:45:53.740 yeah,
00:45:54.080 I don't want to
00:45:54.920 suppress people.
00:45:57.440 All right.
00:45:58.040 But we don't
00:45:58.680 know if that's
00:45:59.120 happening.
00:45:59.700 I have a
00:46:00.200 very big
00:46:01.400 question mark
00:46:02.180 about whether
00:46:02.760 they're being
00:46:03.200 suppressed.
00:46:06.280 All right,
00:46:06.860 well,
00:46:07.100 the migrant
00:46:07.700 surge is
00:46:08.640 here.
00:46:09.440 And I'll
00:46:09.900 talk about
00:46:10.300 this from
00:46:10.760 a persuasion
00:46:11.680 perspective.
00:46:14.840 The,
00:46:15.960 well,
00:46:16.640 the first
00:46:16.900 thing I want
00:46:17.220 to say is
00:46:17.660 one of the
00:46:20.740 things that
00:46:21.180 humans do
00:46:22.000 consistently,
00:46:23.420 and I think
00:46:24.040 it was Mark
00:46:24.580 Twain or
00:46:25.140 somebody said
00:46:25.760 this,
00:46:26.700 that we
00:46:27.060 can't tell
00:46:27.480 the difference
00:46:27.940 between good
00:46:28.640 news and
00:46:29.060 bad news.
00:46:30.680 And the
00:46:31.500 migrant invasion,
00:46:33.440 as you like
00:46:33.820 to call it,
00:46:35.140 looks like bad
00:46:36.300 news from top
00:46:37.100 to bottom,
00:46:37.660 doesn't it?
00:46:39.140 Wouldn't you
00:46:39.520 agree?
00:46:40.460 Like on the
00:46:41.140 surface,
00:46:42.260 and even below
00:46:42.920 the surface,
00:46:43.960 it looks like
00:46:44.700 bad news top
00:46:45.480 to bottom.
00:46:47.360 But,
00:46:48.480 would you also
00:46:49.480 agree that we're
00:46:50.100 terrible at
00:46:50.860 recognizing good
00:46:51.680 and bad news?
00:46:53.920 Would you
00:46:54.440 agree with that
00:46:54.880 statement?
00:46:55.620 We don't always
00:46:56.540 get it wrong,
00:46:57.800 but really,
00:46:58.740 really often,
00:47:00.400 we don't know,
00:47:01.540 we can't predict
00:47:02.420 the good or the
00:47:03.320 bad of what's
00:47:03.940 happening.
00:47:04.360 We just don't
00:47:04.980 know.
00:47:05.660 We do a lot of
00:47:06.420 policies that we
00:47:07.120 think will work
00:47:07.720 out well,
00:47:08.240 and then they
00:47:08.620 don't.
00:47:09.020 We're just bad
00:47:09.680 at predicting.
00:47:11.040 But,
00:47:12.020 keep in mind
00:47:13.780 that the biggest,
00:47:15.240 maybe the biggest
00:47:16.160 problem after debt,
00:47:17.500 is that we
00:47:19.860 have a population
00:47:21.000 collapse.
00:47:23.180 And we're
00:47:23.800 shipping in a
00:47:24.920 whole bunch of
00:47:25.900 Catholics.
00:47:27.560 I think mostly,
00:47:28.440 right?
00:47:29.180 The Central
00:47:29.940 American populations,
00:47:32.660 a lot of
00:47:33.060 Catholics.
00:47:34.040 So you're
00:47:34.580 bringing in a
00:47:35.280 group that
00:47:35.840 culturally likes
00:47:36.740 to have kids.
00:47:39.540 And it might
00:47:40.880 be the most
00:47:41.420 important,
00:47:42.220 positive thing
00:47:42.820 that happens to
00:47:43.340 the United States
00:47:44.100 in the long run,
00:47:45.340 is that we're
00:47:46.180 bringing in
00:47:46.560 mostly men,
00:47:47.500 but they end
00:47:48.040 up establishing
00:47:49.200 themselves and
00:47:50.020 then shipping in
00:47:51.000 women.
00:47:52.540 Or they marry
00:47:53.400 Americans and
00:47:54.180 have kids,
00:47:54.780 whatever.
00:47:56.100 So, yeah,
00:47:57.200 there might be a
00:47:57.720 mismatch of men
00:47:58.460 to women,
00:47:59.020 but that probably
00:47:59.800 will work itself
00:48:00.580 out too.
00:48:01.960 I don't know.
00:48:02.540 I would like to
00:48:03.800 at least submit
00:48:04.960 to you that we
00:48:06.180 can't predict how
00:48:06.940 things will go,
00:48:08.100 but I submit
00:48:09.020 that bringing in
00:48:10.860 huge numbers of
00:48:12.360 young, healthy
00:48:13.160 people who like
00:48:14.420 to have babies
00:48:15.100 might be better
00:48:17.120 for us than
00:48:17.640 you think.
00:48:19.880 It's hard to
00:48:20.600 predict.
00:48:22.280 And it's all
00:48:23.000 bad in the
00:48:23.520 short run.
00:48:24.520 Can we agree
00:48:25.440 on that?
00:48:26.280 In the short run,
00:48:27.060 it's just a
00:48:27.520 catastrophe.
00:48:29.080 I think we all
00:48:29.900 agree on that.
00:48:31.180 Short run,
00:48:32.900 bad.
00:48:34.120 Because it's all
00:48:34.860 coming in the
00:48:35.400 wrong way,
00:48:35.980 it's not controlled,
00:48:36.960 it's too much at
00:48:37.600 once, right?
00:48:38.700 Yeah, too much
00:48:39.300 for the populations
00:48:40.640 to handle.
00:48:41.820 That's too much.
00:48:42.940 Too far.
00:48:43.420 It's too far.
00:48:46.080 But I don't think
00:48:47.180 in the long run
00:48:48.140 we suffer.
00:48:50.600 I think in the
00:48:51.340 long run that's
00:48:52.300 a little less
00:48:52.840 clear.
00:48:54.340 And I do tend
00:48:55.740 to favor the
00:48:56.440 long run in
00:48:57.060 these situations.
00:48:58.360 And I know
00:48:58.780 that's kind of
00:49:00.200 outside of your
00:49:00.940 comfort zone.
00:49:02.640 But let me say
00:49:04.640 a little bit
00:49:05.260 about the
00:49:05.760 political aspect
00:49:07.460 of it.
00:49:08.100 The two
00:49:08.540 strongest forms
00:49:09.260 of persuasion
00:49:09.980 are,
00:49:10.840 I've taught
00:49:11.920 you many times,
00:49:13.420 the two
00:49:13.980 strongest forms
00:49:15.140 of persuasion
00:49:16.100 are fear,
00:49:18.960 always number
00:49:19.580 one,
00:49:20.340 because you
00:49:20.660 have to solve
00:49:21.220 fear right away.
00:49:22.440 Oh no,
00:49:22.720 I'm afraid,
00:49:23.340 so you've got
00:49:23.660 to get out of
00:49:24.040 fear right away.
00:49:24.640 And the other
00:49:25.660 is visual
00:49:26.260 persuasion.
00:49:28.100 If you can
00:49:28.660 see it,
00:49:30.080 it's more
00:49:30.620 impactful than
00:49:31.440 if it's just
00:49:32.320 a concept.
00:49:33.620 So immigration
00:49:34.120 is just a
00:49:34.960 concept until
00:49:36.160 you bring in
00:49:37.080 thousands at
00:49:38.340 the same time
00:49:39.040 and then
00:49:39.780 it's a
00:49:40.080 visual.
00:49:41.420 So immigration
00:49:42.380 has two
00:49:42.860 things that
00:49:43.380 Biden doesn't
00:49:44.880 want.
00:49:46.120 Trump is
00:49:46.780 adding the
00:49:47.240 fear to it
00:49:47.900 and the
00:49:48.760 fear is sort
00:49:49.320 of built
00:49:49.640 in because
00:49:50.100 it's just
00:49:50.460 so many
00:49:50.800 people and
00:49:51.500 they're moving
00:49:53.780 into the
00:49:54.180 streets,
00:49:54.740 etc.
00:49:55.060 So the
00:49:55.540 fear is just
00:49:56.120 sort of
00:49:56.420 baked in
00:49:56.940 and then you
00:49:57.440 have the
00:49:57.720 visual on
00:49:58.280 top of
00:49:58.600 that.
00:49:59.340 This is
00:49:59.980 devastating
00:50:00.760 for Biden
00:50:02.240 because remember
00:50:03.260 the Democrats
00:50:03.840 are not all
00:50:05.280 solidly in
00:50:06.180 favor of open
00:50:06.940 borders.
00:50:08.120 There are
00:50:08.580 plenty of
00:50:09.200 Democrats
00:50:09.720 who don't
00:50:10.440 like this
00:50:10.900 at all.
00:50:12.320 Don't like
00:50:12.940 it at all.
00:50:14.320 So this
00:50:16.240 is a topic
00:50:16.800 that's really
00:50:17.580 dangerous for
00:50:18.380 Biden and
00:50:19.720 is very much
00:50:21.100 going to work
00:50:21.520 in Trump's
00:50:22.040 favor.
00:50:23.200 At this
00:50:23.720 point the
00:50:24.080 way things
00:50:24.460 are lining
00:50:24.880 up, it's
00:50:25.740 too early
00:50:26.180 to predict
00:50:26.760 a winner,
00:50:27.840 but the
00:50:28.340 way things
00:50:28.700 are lining
00:50:29.120 up, it's
00:50:29.620 almost impossible
00:50:30.380 to believe
00:50:30.980 Trump could
00:50:32.000 lose unless
00:50:33.660 the election
00:50:34.320 is rigged.
00:50:36.120 I just
00:50:36.680 don't know
00:50:36.960 how he
00:50:37.220 could lose.
00:50:37.660 He's going
00:50:39.060 against a
00:50:40.240 perfect set
00:50:41.160 of problems.
00:50:43.180 If you're
00:50:43.540 running for
00:50:43.880 president, you
00:50:44.580 want to be
00:50:44.940 running against
00:50:45.580 a set of
00:50:46.020 problems, and
00:50:47.180 then you
00:50:47.380 want to offer
00:50:47.860 yourself as
00:50:48.460 a solution.
00:50:49.800 Who could
00:50:50.440 make a more
00:50:50.980 credible argument
00:50:52.060 that they
00:50:53.380 would go hard
00:50:54.180 at immigration
00:50:54.900 and closing
00:50:55.660 the border?
00:50:56.780 Even if he
00:50:57.480 can't get it
00:50:57.960 done, you
00:50:59.520 did observe
00:51:00.060 that he tried
00:51:00.660 pretty darn
00:51:01.160 hard, and
00:51:02.260 he would at
00:51:02.640 least do what
00:51:03.260 he did before,
00:51:04.040 and that would
00:51:04.420 make a big
00:51:05.020 difference.
00:51:05.380 All right, so
00:51:08.340 that is shaping
00:51:09.920 up to be a
00:51:10.940 very pro-Trump
00:51:11.760 situation, but
00:51:13.720 very anti-
00:51:15.380 United States
00:51:17.420 situation at
00:51:18.100 the moment.
00:51:21.580 Let's see.
00:51:23.400 So this
00:51:24.800 would explain
00:51:25.440 why Mayorkas,
00:51:27.700 which was
00:51:32.920 pointed out
00:51:33.440 to me today.
00:51:34.400 If you look
00:51:35.060 at Mayorkas'
00:51:35.860 name, it
00:51:37.180 looks like he's
00:51:37.760 the mayor of
00:51:38.340 chaos.
00:51:40.340 Mayor of
00:51:41.080 chaos.
00:51:43.900 The simulation
00:51:44.860 is trying to
00:51:45.620 tell us
00:51:45.960 something.
00:51:46.240 Like, I don't
00:51:47.780 think the
00:51:48.420 simulation could
00:51:49.280 be any more
00:51:50.040 clear with
00:51:51.240 his winking.
00:51:51.920 Wink!
00:51:52.700 Wink!
00:51:53.840 Take a hint.
00:51:54.760 So they're
00:51:56.120 sending 24,000
00:51:57.620 Border Patrol
00:51:58.300 people there.
00:51:59.880 How in the
00:52:00.420 world did we
00:52:00.960 have 24,000
00:52:02.140 Border Patrol
00:52:02.800 spare?
00:52:04.380 Is there
00:52:04.680 something wrong
00:52:05.100 with that
00:52:05.380 story?
00:52:07.560 There were
00:52:08.160 24,000 Border
00:52:09.560 Patrol people
00:52:10.260 who were not
00:52:11.400 already at the
00:52:12.100 border?
00:52:13.500 Which border
00:52:14.480 were they
00:52:14.960 working on?
00:52:16.900 What am I
00:52:17.700 missing here?
00:52:19.660 No, the
00:52:20.180 1,500 is
00:52:20.980 something else.
00:52:21.600 But this
00:52:25.060 is directly
00:52:25.460 from the
00:52:25.860 news.
00:52:26.480 This is from
00:52:27.140 the mayor
00:52:27.800 of chaos.
00:52:28.740 We have
00:52:29.040 24,000 Border
00:52:30.060 Patrol agents
00:52:30.780 at the
00:52:32.060 border and
00:52:33.240 have surged
00:52:33.840 thousands of
00:52:34.520 troops.
00:52:34.900 Okay, so
00:52:35.560 maybe the
00:52:35.940 24,000 are
00:52:36.880 just the
00:52:37.320 full.
00:52:39.100 And then
00:52:39.460 they added
00:52:39.880 over 1,000
00:52:40.760 asylum officers
00:52:41.840 who are
00:52:42.640 basically just
00:52:43.320 paperwork
00:52:43.840 people.
00:52:45.660 Oh, so
00:52:46.040 the 24,000 is
00:52:47.100 basically what
00:52:47.820 they already
00:52:48.160 had.
00:52:49.840 Okay, so I
00:52:50.500 was reading
00:52:50.840 the story
00:52:51.260 wrong.
00:52:51.600 All right.
00:52:58.020 So I think
00:52:59.100 that they
00:53:00.360 have to try
00:53:00.900 pretty hard
00:53:01.420 to control
00:53:01.940 the border
00:53:02.420 because this
00:53:04.140 is the
00:53:04.460 election.
00:53:06.660 You know,
00:53:06.900 how well,
00:53:08.080 basically Biden's
00:53:09.540 chances are in
00:53:10.440 the hands of
00:53:10.880 Mayorkas right
00:53:11.560 now.
00:53:12.560 Mayorkas will
00:53:13.280 have a big
00:53:15.480 impact on
00:53:16.960 whether Biden
00:53:17.440 gets reelected
00:53:18.220 because if he
00:53:19.640 blows this,
00:53:20.420 there's no
00:53:21.420 going back.
00:53:23.600 If the
00:53:24.200 migrant crisis
00:53:25.240 doesn't get
00:53:25.900 at least
00:53:26.400 seriously
00:53:27.520 blunted,
00:53:30.040 unless he
00:53:30.700 puts a
00:53:31.060 real big
00:53:32.300 effort that
00:53:33.740 we don't
00:53:34.100 see coming,
00:53:36.220 they're just
00:53:36.960 going to get
00:53:37.300 rolled and
00:53:38.460 that's going
00:53:39.260 to be a
00:53:39.660 Trump
00:53:39.940 presidency.
00:53:40.420 All right.
00:53:42.200 Here is
00:53:44.440 CNN creating
00:53:46.140 more chance
00:53:47.760 for war.
00:53:49.180 Of course,
00:53:49.660 Trump was on
00:53:50.320 CNN at the
00:53:51.040 town hall and
00:53:51.720 everybody's yapping
00:53:52.380 about that.
00:53:52.980 We'll talk more
00:53:53.440 about that.
00:53:53.920 But that
00:53:54.840 allowed them
00:53:55.660 to unleash
00:53:57.420 Stephen
00:53:58.040 Collinson,
00:53:59.300 their resident
00:54:00.380 anti-Trump
00:54:01.760 opinion person,
00:54:02.980 to write some
00:54:03.780 more ridiculous
00:54:04.480 opinion pieces.
00:54:05.380 But here's
00:54:05.820 something that
00:54:06.480 he pretends
00:54:07.020 not to
00:54:07.400 understand.
00:54:08.320 This is
00:54:08.640 Stephen.
00:54:09.880 He wrote
00:54:10.700 on CNN,
00:54:12.640 nevertheless,
00:54:13.380 Trump's
00:54:13.760 unwillingness to
00:54:14.980 refer to
00:54:15.600 Putin as a
00:54:16.420 war criminal,
00:54:17.400 meaning in the
00:54:18.060 town hall,
00:54:18.840 he was asked
00:54:19.320 if Putin is
00:54:20.580 a war criminal
00:54:21.180 and he was
00:54:21.660 not answering
00:54:22.280 that question.
00:54:22.760 So Trump's
00:54:25.540 unwillingness to
00:54:26.400 refer to Putin
00:54:27.080 as a war
00:54:27.680 criminal,
00:54:28.660 despite evidence
00:54:29.580 of Russia's
00:54:30.240 atrocities in
00:54:31.720 Ukraine and
00:54:32.820 an international
00:54:33.480 criminal court
00:54:34.260 warrant for his
00:54:34.940 arrest,
00:54:36.040 renewed intrigue
00:54:37.300 over the
00:54:38.180 ex-president's
00:54:39.140 motives in
00:54:40.680 repeatedly
00:54:41.480 genuflecting
00:54:43.060 to the
00:54:43.980 Kremlin
00:54:44.320 strongman.
00:54:46.680 So the way
00:54:47.820 CNN is
00:54:48.500 framing this
00:54:50.220 is that
00:54:51.460 Trump
00:54:52.700 being unwilling
00:54:53.640 to call
00:54:54.140 Putin a
00:54:54.620 war criminal
00:54:55.260 is really
00:54:56.780 because he's
00:54:57.800 under
00:54:59.520 Putin's
00:55:00.160 control.
00:55:03.620 That is
00:55:04.420 TDS stage
00:55:05.340 four.
00:55:06.100 That's
00:55:06.440 terminal
00:55:06.920 Trump
00:55:07.560 derangement
00:55:08.120 syndrome.
00:55:09.220 You all
00:55:09.740 know the
00:55:10.080 real reason,
00:55:10.740 right?
00:55:11.580 Trump said
00:55:12.200 the real
00:55:12.560 reason.
00:55:13.060 He didn't
00:55:13.320 say it at
00:55:13.720 the town
00:55:14.080 hall,
00:55:14.600 but he
00:55:15.080 has before
00:55:15.680 said the
00:55:16.140 real reason.
00:55:17.100 You can't
00:55:17.640 negotiate with
00:55:18.400 somebody that
00:55:19.000 you labeled a
00:55:19.680 war criminal.
00:55:20.160 How is
00:55:22.220 that not
00:55:22.640 part of
00:55:22.980 the story?
00:55:24.260 You can't
00:55:24.860 negotiate,
00:55:25.580 you cannot
00:55:26.120 negotiate with
00:55:27.720 somebody you
00:55:28.300 labeled a
00:55:28.960 war criminal.
00:55:30.220 It's
00:55:30.720 ridiculous.
00:55:32.360 Now, are
00:55:33.080 you telling me
00:55:33.520 that Stephen
00:55:33.960 Collinson doesn't
00:55:35.180 know that?
00:55:37.200 That his own
00:55:38.140 common sense
00:55:38.920 wouldn't tell
00:55:39.640 him that you
00:55:40.820 don't call
00:55:41.240 somebody a
00:55:41.720 war criminal
00:55:42.200 when you
00:55:42.600 try to get
00:55:43.020 them to do
00:55:43.480 something for
00:55:44.060 you, which
00:55:45.540 is negotiate?
00:55:46.120 Or is
00:55:48.480 he unaware
00:55:48.900 of the
00:55:49.200 news?
00:55:50.200 Because I'm
00:55:50.700 not making
00:55:51.100 it up.
00:55:51.560 It's what
00:55:51.940 Trump has
00:55:52.860 said directly
00:55:53.660 prior to the
00:55:55.800 town hall when
00:55:56.800 he was asked.
00:55:57.400 He goes,
00:55:57.620 yeah, you
00:55:57.900 don't call
00:55:59.480 somebody a
00:55:59.960 war criminal
00:56:00.400 and then
00:56:00.760 negotiate with
00:56:01.400 them.
00:56:02.020 You can't
00:56:02.320 do that if
00:56:03.340 you want to
00:56:03.720 negotiate
00:56:04.120 successfully.
00:56:05.960 So how
00:56:07.460 in the world
00:56:07.940 is this
00:56:08.700 not a
00:56:09.200 story about
00:56:11.340 for the
00:56:11.860 first time a
00:56:12.560 good negotiator
00:56:13.420 told you how
00:56:14.040 to solve a
00:56:14.580 war?
00:56:16.120 And when
00:56:18.040 Trump says
00:56:18.580 he can solve
00:56:19.540 that war in
00:56:20.340 a day,
00:56:21.780 honestly, I
00:56:23.080 think that's
00:56:23.480 possible.
00:56:25.180 Because he
00:56:25.780 would be the
00:56:26.200 only one who
00:56:26.780 would say,
00:56:27.820 I will crush
00:56:28.540 both of you.
00:56:29.980 And they
00:56:30.360 would both
00:56:30.760 believe it.
00:56:31.980 Nobody else
00:56:32.620 in the world
00:56:33.000 would say it.
00:56:34.220 First of all,
00:56:34.820 nobody would
00:56:35.260 say it but
00:56:36.020 him.
00:56:36.340 He's the only
00:56:36.740 one who
00:56:36.980 would say it.
00:56:37.540 I will crush
00:56:38.220 both of you.
00:56:39.760 You're going
00:56:40.140 to make a
00:56:40.500 deal.
00:56:43.580 There's only
00:56:44.140 one person
00:56:44.660 who even has
00:56:45.200 a plan.
00:56:47.020 Tell me the
00:56:47.940 other plan.
00:56:50.040 To win?
00:56:51.660 That's Biden's
00:56:52.680 plan.
00:56:53.240 Biden's plan
00:56:53.860 is to win.
00:56:55.460 Are you
00:56:55.940 kidding me?
00:56:57.340 To win?
00:56:59.780 What?
00:57:00.760 To win
00:57:01.280 what?
00:57:03.080 Exactly.
00:57:04.640 So Trump
00:57:05.860 has the only
00:57:06.560 plan that
00:57:07.780 even on
00:57:08.380 paper is
00:57:09.520 not bad
00:57:10.320 shit fucking
00:57:11.080 crazy.
00:57:11.540 I don't
00:57:13.480 know if
00:57:13.700 it'll work
00:57:14.280 but it's
00:57:15.320 the only
00:57:15.560 one that's
00:57:15.900 not crazy
00:57:16.540 and he
00:57:17.420 does have
00:57:17.900 the goods.
00:57:18.840 He described
00:57:19.500 to you the
00:57:20.080 exact mechanism
00:57:21.160 with which he
00:57:22.520 can end the
00:57:23.220 war in a day
00:57:23.920 and you sit
00:57:24.800 there and you
00:57:25.160 go,
00:57:25.720 uh,
00:57:27.120 well,
00:57:29.080 uh,
00:57:30.020 why wouldn't
00:57:31.800 that work?
00:57:33.200 Why wouldn't
00:57:33.680 that work?
00:57:34.640 Do you know
00:57:35.020 what else he's
00:57:35.500 going to say?
00:57:36.760 He's never
00:57:37.420 indicated this
00:57:38.140 but this is
00:57:38.920 just me
00:57:39.280 speculating.
00:57:40.140 This is based
00:57:40.760 entirely on his
00:57:41.580 talent.
00:57:42.780 So,
00:57:43.260 based on
00:57:43.800 Trump's
00:57:44.180 talent,
00:57:45.400 the day that
00:57:46.000 he started
00:57:46.440 negotiating,
00:57:47.260 do you know
00:57:47.520 what he'd
00:57:47.760 say?
00:57:47.940 Do it
00:57:48.160 today
00:57:50.720 because
00:57:52.220 everybody who
00:57:53.080 gets killed
00:57:53.520 after today
00:57:54.100 is a waste
00:57:54.580 of people
00:57:54.980 because you
00:57:56.360 are going
00:57:56.740 to settle
00:57:57.080 it.
00:57:57.980 So,
00:57:58.480 do it
00:57:58.660 today.
00:57:59.620 And they'll
00:58:00.160 say,
00:58:00.440 hey,
00:58:00.560 let's get a
00:58:01.200 meeting together
00:58:01.760 next week
00:58:02.440 and Trump
00:58:03.340 will say,
00:58:03.740 that's a week
00:58:04.260 of killing
00:58:04.640 people for
00:58:05.780 nothing.
00:58:07.200 Life is
00:58:07.880 short.
00:58:09.260 Get your
00:58:09.660 country together
00:58:10.340 now.
00:58:11.400 Do it
00:58:11.700 today.
00:58:12.700 All right,
00:58:13.100 we'll have a
00:58:13.580 phone call
00:58:13.980 tomorrow.
00:58:14.560 No.
00:58:15.320 Are you
00:58:15.740 fucking
00:58:16.180 listening to
00:58:16.840 me?
00:58:18.220 Today.
00:58:19.700 Right
00:58:20.000 now.
00:58:21.240 Like,
00:58:21.520 make a
00:58:21.840 phone call
00:58:22.360 right fucking
00:58:23.560 now and
00:58:24.380 stop fighting.
00:58:25.560 Or else I
00:58:26.640 will crush
00:58:27.240 both of
00:58:27.700 you.
00:58:28.460 I will
00:58:28.740 reduce
00:58:30.840 Russia to
00:58:32.940 a third
00:58:33.640 world hell
00:58:34.280 hole.
00:58:35.280 And Ukraine,
00:58:36.020 you're going
00:58:36.220 to be there
00:58:36.600 with them.
00:58:37.160 And fuck
00:58:37.580 both of
00:58:38.020 you.
00:58:38.680 Fuck
00:58:39.060 both of
00:58:39.500 you.
00:58:40.100 Make the
00:58:40.420 phone call
00:58:40.740 today.
00:58:42.060 So I
00:58:42.500 think that's
00:58:42.900 what it
00:58:43.120 would look
00:58:43.400 like behind
00:58:43.880 closed
00:58:44.240 doors.
00:58:46.240 Just a
00:58:46.840 guess.
00:58:47.680 But he
00:58:48.340 wouldn't be
00:58:48.840 calling Putin
00:58:49.460 a war
00:58:49.860 criminal.
00:58:51.340 He would
00:58:51.960 be telling
00:58:52.360 him,
00:58:52.680 if you
00:58:52.900 end this
00:58:53.280 today,
00:58:53.700 we could
00:58:54.000 work
00:58:54.240 productively
00:58:54.880 with you.
00:58:56.760 He would
00:58:57.400 give him
00:58:57.660 a carrot
00:58:58.040 and he
00:58:58.840 would give
00:58:59.160 him the
00:58:59.580 biggest stick
00:59:00.200 you've ever
00:59:00.600 seen in
00:59:00.980 your life.
00:59:02.240 Because he
00:59:02.880 knows how
00:59:03.220 to negotiate.
00:59:04.640 And he's
00:59:05.400 credible with
00:59:06.900 his threats.
00:59:08.340 And he's
00:59:09.060 credible in
00:59:09.500 the way he
00:59:09.840 says he's
00:59:10.280 credible,
00:59:10.760 which doesn't
00:59:11.680 necessarily mean
00:59:12.540 I'll do all
00:59:13.000 those threats.
00:59:14.180 But you
00:59:14.820 don't know.
00:59:16.080 And people
00:59:16.820 really don't.
00:59:17.500 So CNN did
00:59:24.200 something useful
00:59:24.940 by having
00:59:25.560 Trump on
00:59:26.160 the town
00:59:26.520 hall and
00:59:27.100 presenting
00:59:28.140 him to
00:59:28.580 everybody.
00:59:29.360 And when
00:59:29.800 CNN does
00:59:30.400 something useful,
00:59:31.380 how do their
00:59:31.960 main customers
00:59:33.680 respond?
00:59:35.160 Let's see,
00:59:35.520 CNN did
00:59:36.080 something really
00:59:36.620 good for the
00:59:37.220 country and
00:59:37.700 useful.
00:59:38.700 And then
00:59:39.040 their main
00:59:39.880 customers said,
00:59:42.740 of course they
00:59:43.380 said,
00:59:43.620 that's a great
00:59:44.140 job, CNN.
00:59:44.860 Wow, we're
00:59:45.920 so glad that
00:59:46.640 you're showing
00:59:46.980 us both sides
00:59:47.720 for a change.
00:59:48.520 We really
00:59:49.240 appreciate that
00:59:50.000 you opened it
00:59:50.580 up and you
00:59:51.580 set your
00:59:51.960 priorities where
00:59:52.980 the public's
00:59:55.260 need to know
00:59:55.940 is the
00:59:56.840 important thing
00:59:57.500 and it wasn't
00:59:58.120 about the
00:59:58.520 narrative and
00:59:59.060 it wasn't,
01:00:00.060 oh, that
01:00:00.460 didn't happen,
01:00:01.040 did it?
01:00:02.160 No, pure
01:00:02.840 outrage, pure
01:00:04.940 outrage that
01:00:05.880 their network
01:00:06.680 could show
01:00:07.840 both sides
01:00:08.520 of anything.
01:00:10.700 They were
01:00:11.400 actually mad
01:00:12.360 that the
01:00:13.720 public got to
01:00:14.540 see both
01:00:14.960 sides.
01:00:15.480 Now, they
01:00:15.700 don't say it
01:00:16.160 that way,
01:00:16.500 but that's
01:00:16.760 exactly what
01:00:17.360 it was.
01:00:18.520 They were
01:00:18.800 mad that
01:00:19.560 the other
01:00:20.000 side got
01:00:20.540 some time.
01:00:23.840 It's
01:00:24.280 amazing.
01:00:25.140 Do you
01:00:25.600 think that
01:00:25.980 they're aware
01:00:26.500 that they
01:00:26.900 can't win
01:00:27.380 on the
01:00:27.680 facts?
01:00:30.840 On some
01:00:31.820 level, are
01:00:32.260 they aware
01:00:32.740 that the
01:00:33.160 facts don't
01:00:33.720 work in
01:00:34.080 their favor?
01:00:36.320 Now, I'm
01:00:37.080 completely aware
01:00:37.760 that they
01:00:38.080 say the
01:00:38.420 same thing
01:00:38.780 about the
01:00:39.180 right,
01:00:39.480 right?
01:00:39.880 That the
01:00:40.600 right's not
01:00:41.320 dealing with
01:00:41.760 facts.
01:00:42.100 But in
01:00:44.160 this
01:00:44.320 particular
01:00:44.680 case, we
01:00:46.560 can talk
01:00:46.920 about them.
01:00:48.160 Now, Dana
01:00:48.680 Perino had
01:00:49.200 a fascinating
01:00:50.620 comment, and
01:00:51.360 I don't know
01:00:51.740 why I didn't
01:00:52.280 think of it
01:00:52.720 myself, so I
01:00:53.840 slapped myself
01:00:54.640 when I heard
01:00:55.120 it, which
01:00:56.460 is, why is
01:00:57.500 CNN acting
01:00:59.120 like the
01:00:59.880 Republican
01:01:00.480 primaries
01:01:01.060 already over?
01:01:04.200 They sort
01:01:05.380 of presented
01:01:06.800 Trump like
01:01:08.080 it was a
01:01:08.500 general election
01:01:09.400 thing.
01:01:10.080 they didn't
01:01:10.660 say that.
01:01:12.220 But the
01:01:12.980 complete lack
01:01:13.960 of conversation
01:01:15.160 about his
01:01:15.720 competitors,
01:01:18.060 like at the
01:01:18.600 very least,
01:01:19.180 don't you
01:01:19.400 think Caitlin
01:01:20.220 should have
01:01:20.900 said, how
01:01:22.360 do you stack
01:01:22.900 up against
01:01:23.540 your potential
01:01:24.480 competitors on
01:01:25.480 the Republican
01:01:26.580 side?
01:01:27.700 You know, just
01:01:28.040 to put it out
01:01:28.540 there, to
01:01:29.180 remind people
01:01:29.860 that Trump
01:01:30.340 is not the
01:01:30.920 nominee?
01:01:33.540 So I
01:01:34.640 thought that
01:01:34.920 was a
01:01:35.420 pretty insightful
01:01:36.400 comment from
01:01:37.560 Dana Perino,
01:01:38.500 because I
01:01:39.580 had completely
01:01:40.140 missed it.
01:01:41.040 I had just
01:01:41.640 sailed right
01:01:42.160 past to
01:01:43.000 assuming he
01:01:43.640 was the
01:01:44.060 nominee, so
01:01:45.080 I had made
01:01:45.460 the same
01:01:45.800 mistake, but
01:01:47.020 they sort of
01:01:47.720 led me to
01:01:48.280 that, but
01:01:49.640 it was still
01:01:49.960 my mistake.
01:01:52.140 All right.
01:01:54.120 Yeah, they
01:01:54.780 might think
01:01:55.280 that Trump
01:01:55.720 is easier to
01:01:56.840 meet.
01:01:57.240 So they
01:01:57.560 got record
01:01:58.700 ratings, but
01:02:03.480 lots of
01:02:03.840 complaints from
01:02:04.520 their audience.
01:02:05.840 do you
01:02:07.400 think they
01:02:07.780 should do
01:02:08.180 more stuff
01:02:08.840 like this
01:02:09.560 and try to
01:02:10.420 get more
01:02:10.840 record ratings
01:02:11.760 because they're
01:02:14.760 a business?
01:02:17.580 By the way,
01:02:18.260 did you see
01:02:19.080 the tweet
01:02:19.800 by the
01:02:20.540 CEO of
01:02:21.940 CNN,
01:02:23.460 Chris Light?
01:02:25.400 And his
01:02:25.900 tweet was,
01:02:26.560 when he was
01:02:26.960 announcing that
01:02:27.880 they were
01:02:28.320 going to have
01:02:28.720 Trump before
01:02:29.620 the event,
01:02:31.060 his tweet
01:02:31.920 was, are
01:02:32.580 you not
01:02:32.960 entertained?
01:02:35.840 I forget,
01:02:37.140 where does
01:02:37.340 that quote
01:02:37.780 come from?
01:02:38.420 Are you not
01:02:38.920 entertained?
01:02:39.500 Is that like
01:02:39.900 a Roman,
01:02:41.380 some kind of
01:02:42.660 Roman Colosseum
01:02:43.520 thing?
01:02:43.780 It's a
01:02:44.020 gladiator
01:02:44.580 reference,
01:02:45.420 right?
01:02:46.180 Are you not
01:02:47.000 entertained?
01:02:48.340 So this is
01:02:49.220 what it tells
01:02:49.680 me.
01:02:50.140 It tells me
01:02:50.760 that Chris
01:02:51.280 Light actually
01:02:52.960 understands what
01:02:53.880 business he's
01:02:54.580 in, and he's
01:02:55.840 not hiding it.
01:02:57.280 That part of
01:02:57.940 their job is
01:02:58.820 to make sure
01:02:59.340 that you come
01:02:59.820 see it.
01:03:01.040 So putting
01:03:01.760 on a show
01:03:02.460 is actually
01:03:04.340 completely
01:03:04.940 appropriate
01:03:05.420 behavior.
01:03:07.180 And I'm
01:03:07.960 all for it.
01:03:09.040 Because, you
01:03:09.920 know, this is
01:03:10.540 the thing I've
01:03:10.960 always appreciated
01:03:11.600 about Trump.
01:03:13.140 Trump knows
01:03:14.140 that putting
01:03:14.560 on a show
01:03:15.340 is important
01:03:17.120 above and,
01:03:18.900 you know,
01:03:19.280 separate from
01:03:19.960 politics and
01:03:20.960 policy.
01:03:21.860 The show
01:03:22.360 matters.
01:03:23.260 So he puts
01:03:23.760 on the best
01:03:24.240 show you've
01:03:24.700 ever seen
01:03:25.120 in your life,
01:03:26.140 and it
01:03:27.560 helps.
01:03:28.640 But Chris
01:03:29.420 Light is
01:03:30.180 clearly aware
01:03:31.200 that the
01:03:32.180 show matters
01:03:33.740 as long as
01:03:34.920 you're also
01:03:35.240 getting the
01:03:35.660 facts out.
01:03:37.000 Now, I
01:03:37.620 thought the
01:03:38.020 CNN did a
01:03:38.740 great job
01:03:39.360 because they
01:03:40.280 let Trump
01:03:40.980 go up there
01:03:41.460 and say a
01:03:41.960 bunch of
01:03:42.220 things that
01:03:42.640 didn't pass
01:03:43.420 the fact
01:03:43.800 checking,
01:03:44.520 but then
01:03:45.040 they spent
01:03:45.440 plenty of
01:03:45.900 time fact
01:03:46.340 checking him.
01:03:47.420 What else
01:03:47.900 did he ask
01:03:48.260 for?
01:03:49.060 You heard
01:03:49.780 Trump's
01:03:50.340 views,
01:03:51.320 then the
01:03:52.120 fact checkers
01:03:52.740 weighed in.
01:03:54.320 That's exactly
01:03:55.160 what I'm
01:03:55.520 asking for.
01:03:56.380 Now, I'm
01:03:56.620 not sure
01:03:56.920 the fact
01:03:57.320 checkers
01:03:57.780 were,
01:03:58.700 you know,
01:03:59.280 the pundits
01:04:00.020 were honest
01:04:00.780 themselves,
01:04:01.600 but at
01:04:01.920 least you
01:04:02.120 got both
01:04:02.480 sides.
01:04:03.700 And so I
01:04:04.660 was pretty
01:04:04.940 happy about
01:04:05.360 that.
01:04:06.900 But then
01:04:07.500 Anderson Cooper
01:04:08.240 had to come
01:04:08.720 on and
01:04:09.080 sort of
01:04:09.360 explain and
01:04:10.280 apologize
01:04:11.720 without
01:04:12.380 apologizing,
01:04:13.540 and what
01:04:14.140 the heck
01:04:14.420 are they
01:04:14.620 doing with
01:04:15.200 this monster?
01:04:16.540 So here
01:04:16.940 are some
01:04:17.240 of the
01:04:17.400 things that
01:04:18.120 Anderson Cooper
01:04:19.640 said.
01:04:20.120 And let
01:04:20.420 me preface
01:04:20.840 this by
01:04:21.260 saying I
01:04:22.900 believe the
01:04:23.620 two worst
01:04:24.560 news people
01:04:26.320 who are not
01:04:27.140 yet fired
01:04:27.800 are Anderson
01:04:29.400 Cooper and
01:04:30.380 Jake Tapper.
01:04:32.760 And my
01:04:33.320 complaint with
01:04:33.920 them is that
01:04:34.460 they don't
01:04:35.700 separate opinion
01:04:37.800 from news
01:04:38.580 the way
01:04:40.440 Fox does
01:04:41.400 well.
01:04:42.300 So when you
01:04:42.940 hear Brett
01:04:43.400 Bayer,
01:04:44.820 you don't
01:04:45.340 get narrative.
01:04:48.040 You keep
01:04:48.640 expecting it,
01:04:49.300 but he just
01:04:49.640 doesn't do
01:04:50.080 it.
01:04:50.680 He gives
01:04:51.040 you the
01:04:51.280 news on
01:04:52.540 Fox.
01:04:53.400 But you're
01:04:53.880 watching Hannity,
01:04:54.800 it's all
01:04:55.340 narrative,
01:04:56.060 but you know
01:04:56.460 that, and
01:04:57.000 Hannity tells
01:04:57.560 you, it's
01:04:58.420 just opinion.
01:04:59.340 It's my
01:04:59.640 opinion.
01:05:00.800 But when
01:05:01.820 you listen
01:05:02.180 to Anderson
01:05:02.900 Cooper or
01:05:04.440 Jake Tapper,
01:05:05.240 I don't
01:05:05.520 know if
01:05:05.840 they're news
01:05:06.240 or opinion.
01:05:07.500 They treat
01:05:08.280 their opinion
01:05:09.020 like it's
01:05:09.520 news.
01:05:10.880 For example,
01:05:12.380 and in so
01:05:13.260 doing, they
01:05:13.880 look like
01:05:14.300 they're begging
01:05:14.780 for therapy.
01:05:16.060 When I hear
01:05:16.860 Anderson
01:05:17.320 Cooper talking
01:05:18.060 about Trump,
01:05:19.480 all I hear
01:05:20.400 is somebody
01:05:20.960 who's having
01:05:21.600 a severe
01:05:22.300 psychological
01:05:23.940 reaction and
01:05:25.600 needs therapy.
01:05:26.320 it's like
01:05:27.300 a plea
01:05:27.980 for help.
01:05:29.180 But listen,
01:05:29.540 here's some
01:05:29.840 of the things
01:05:30.120 that Anderson
01:05:30.600 Cooper said.
01:05:31.660 And by the
01:05:31.980 way, they
01:05:32.260 always do
01:05:32.700 the Trump
01:05:33.700 face, so
01:05:35.340 whenever they
01:05:35.760 talk about
01:05:36.160 it, they
01:05:36.340 have to
01:05:36.620 look super
01:05:37.460 disappointed
01:05:38.200 and disgusted.
01:05:41.100 Even if they
01:05:41.920 were reporting
01:05:42.500 that Trump
01:05:43.000 got a new
01:05:43.460 necktie,
01:05:44.640 they'd be
01:05:44.900 like, and
01:05:46.520 the ex-president
01:05:47.960 of the United
01:05:48.340 States,
01:05:49.820 Donald J.
01:05:50.760 Trump, got
01:05:52.580 a necktie,
01:05:55.660 another
01:05:57.040 necktie.
01:05:59.080 They'll just
01:05:59.720 make everything
01:06:00.400 sound like it
01:06:02.100 hurts them
01:06:02.600 physically.
01:06:03.680 I've got a
01:06:04.740 pain in my
01:06:05.360 stomach from
01:06:06.760 something Trump
01:06:08.040 said.
01:06:10.920 And honestly,
01:06:12.300 it looks like
01:06:12.700 mental illness.
01:06:14.400 No hyperbole.
01:06:16.540 This is my
01:06:17.340 honest take.
01:06:18.100 When I
01:06:19.020 looked at
01:06:19.340 Anderson
01:06:19.680 Cooper
01:06:20.040 talking about
01:06:21.240 why they
01:06:21.600 had Trump
01:06:22.000 on, it
01:06:23.440 just screamed
01:06:24.000 mental illness.
01:06:25.900 It just
01:06:26.200 screamed it.
01:06:27.380 I don't think
01:06:28.180 that's the look
01:06:28.800 that Chris
01:06:29.260 Light wants.
01:06:30.460 I feel like
01:06:31.300 he needs to
01:06:31.740 get rid of
01:06:32.140 the mentally
01:06:32.860 ill people.
01:06:33.540 And I think
01:06:33.840 Jake Tapper's
01:06:34.460 got the same
01:06:34.880 problem.
01:06:35.780 He presents
01:06:36.680 himself as
01:06:37.540 mental illness.
01:06:39.440 Like there's a
01:06:40.240 problem he's
01:06:40.920 having that he's
01:06:41.980 trying to work
01:06:42.540 through, and
01:06:43.380 he's not doing
01:06:43.900 a good job of
01:06:44.560 it.
01:06:45.540 Now, my
01:06:47.500 problem with
01:06:48.180 them is not
01:06:48.900 just that they
01:06:49.840 don't like
01:06:50.320 Trump or
01:06:50.900 they're left
01:06:51.800 leading or
01:06:52.320 anything like
01:06:52.740 that.
01:06:53.220 It's that they
01:06:53.860 don't look like
01:06:54.520 news people.
01:06:55.860 They look like
01:06:56.520 people who need
01:06:57.320 help and
01:06:58.940 should not be
01:06:59.600 in those jobs.
01:07:00.800 They just
01:07:01.180 don't seem
01:07:01.540 qualified.
01:07:04.080 All right.
01:07:06.180 Trump broke
01:07:07.040 both of them.
01:07:07.680 I think they
01:07:08.020 were fine before
01:07:08.720 Trump.
01:07:10.340 So here's what
01:07:11.320 Cooper says to
01:07:13.980 his audience.
01:07:14.700 You have every
01:07:15.340 right to be
01:07:15.920 outraged today.
01:07:17.500 And angry.
01:07:18.960 And never
01:07:19.420 watch this
01:07:19.980 network again.
01:07:21.700 But do you
01:07:22.200 think staying
01:07:22.700 in your silo
01:07:23.440 and only
01:07:24.300 listening to
01:07:24.820 people you
01:07:25.200 agree with
01:07:25.700 is going to
01:07:26.200 make that
01:07:27.420 person go
01:07:27.980 away?
01:07:29.760 So that
01:07:30.640 was good.
01:07:31.340 That was a
01:07:31.940 good setup.
01:07:33.020 But then he
01:07:33.700 referred to
01:07:34.320 Trump as
01:07:34.800 someone who
01:07:35.440 tried to
01:07:35.900 destroy our
01:07:36.580 democracy.
01:07:39.320 Like that
01:07:39.920 was a fact.
01:07:41.840 Where's that
01:07:42.460 fact?
01:07:43.640 Aren't you
01:07:44.160 supposed to be
01:07:44.540 a news
01:07:45.340 organization?
01:07:47.500 That's a
01:07:48.040 fact that
01:07:49.000 Trump was
01:07:49.400 trying to
01:07:49.780 destroy
01:07:50.200 democracy as
01:07:51.640 opposed to
01:07:52.260 the more
01:07:52.580 obvious
01:07:53.040 explanation that
01:07:53.900 he was trying
01:07:54.380 to preserve
01:07:55.040 it?
01:07:56.160 Now for
01:07:56.940 self-interest
01:07:57.600 of course.
01:07:58.560 But the
01:07:59.360 context was he
01:08:00.320 wanted democracy
01:08:01.080 to work.
01:08:02.220 He didn't want
01:08:02.660 to break it.
01:08:05.280 But to just
01:08:06.400 put that out
01:08:06.980 there and
01:08:07.360 then his
01:08:07.860 viewers are
01:08:08.920 going to
01:08:09.080 think that's
01:08:09.440 some kind
01:08:09.740 of a fact
01:08:10.260 because it's
01:08:10.760 on the
01:08:11.040 news.
01:08:11.360 he went
01:08:15.600 through his
01:08:16.160 list of
01:08:17.220 how bad
01:08:17.960 Trump is
01:08:18.660 and he
01:08:19.540 said he
01:08:19.840 called the
01:08:20.240 black police
01:08:20.960 officer a
01:08:21.660 thug.
01:08:23.020 The black
01:08:23.900 police officer
01:08:24.600 who shot
01:08:25.060 Ashley Babbitt.
01:08:27.620 Now who
01:08:29.280 mentioned
01:08:29.700 black?
01:08:32.020 Trump
01:08:32.620 didn't.
01:08:33.780 Trump didn't
01:08:34.620 say that
01:08:35.060 person was
01:08:35.600 black.
01:08:36.360 He just
01:08:36.640 said that
01:08:37.480 the person
01:08:37.820 acted like
01:08:38.260 a thug.
01:08:39.240 What does
01:08:39.780 a thug
01:08:40.200 act like?
01:08:41.360 Well a
01:08:42.400 thug would
01:08:42.860 choose somebody
01:08:43.560 who in his
01:08:45.800 opinion didn't
01:08:46.440 deserve to
01:08:46.880 get shot.
01:08:47.980 That would
01:08:48.300 be thug
01:08:48.820 behavior.
01:08:50.060 Do you
01:08:50.340 think he
01:08:50.660 only uses
01:08:51.260 the word
01:08:51.520 thug when
01:08:52.040 he's talking
01:08:52.420 about black
01:08:53.000 police officers?
01:08:56.500 I don't
01:08:57.120 know.
01:08:58.040 I've got a
01:08:58.740 feeling that
01:08:59.520 he's reading
01:09:01.320 a little too
01:09:01.820 much into
01:09:02.280 this.
01:09:02.620 Anderson
01:09:02.880 is.
01:09:04.780 And then
01:09:05.160 Anderson
01:09:05.480 said that
01:09:06.160 Trump called
01:09:07.360 Caitlin
01:09:07.920 Cullens
01:09:08.440 nasty which
01:09:10.300 Anderson said
01:09:11.080 is what
01:09:11.460 he calls
01:09:11.820 any woman
01:09:12.420 who stands
01:09:12.960 up to
01:09:13.260 him.
01:09:14.120 Is that
01:09:14.720 the problem?
01:09:16.700 Is it
01:09:17.280 that the
01:09:17.580 women are
01:09:17.980 standing up
01:09:18.520 to him?
01:09:19.820 I don't
01:09:20.420 think so.
01:09:22.180 I don't
01:09:22.760 think it's
01:09:23.120 the standing
01:09:24.060 up to
01:09:24.420 him part
01:09:24.960 that's the
01:09:25.980 problem.
01:09:26.660 I'm pretty
01:09:27.260 sure he
01:09:27.580 likes that.
01:09:29.140 I think he
01:09:29.640 likes strong
01:09:30.260 women.
01:09:31.700 But if they
01:09:33.100 stand up to
01:09:33.660 him and they
01:09:34.020 say something
01:09:34.480 that's not
01:09:35.060 true or
01:09:36.280 mischaracterizes
01:09:37.180 something he's
01:09:37.800 going to go
01:09:38.120 after them.
01:09:38.480 So I
01:09:40.400 don't know
01:09:40.620 that's
01:09:40.840 pretty weak.
01:09:43.000 Pretty
01:09:43.560 weak.
01:09:45.780 And then I
01:09:46.620 saw one of
01:09:47.160 the viewers
01:09:47.720 weigh in
01:09:48.200 somebody named
01:09:48.860 Paul Carr
01:09:49.440 on Twitter
01:09:50.580 and Paul
01:09:51.820 said some
01:09:52.560 viewers are
01:09:53.620 left holding
01:09:54.240 a sense of
01:09:54.960 betrayal here.
01:09:56.800 This impacts
01:09:57.480 trust and
01:09:58.260 concern about
01:09:59.120 editorial judgment.
01:10:00.740 I don't know
01:10:01.200 when or if
01:10:01.740 I'll return to
01:10:02.420 CNN.
01:10:03.260 It won't be
01:10:03.900 soon.
01:10:05.020 What do you
01:10:05.460 think Paul does
01:10:06.360 for a living?
01:10:06.820 What do
01:10:08.880 you think
01:10:09.000 his job
01:10:09.380 is?
01:10:10.180 Take
01:10:10.440 guess.
01:10:11.300 Writer.
01:10:11.940 He's a
01:10:12.240 writer.
01:10:12.780 Kind of an
01:10:13.120 artist.
01:10:15.480 It's always
01:10:16.140 the writers.
01:10:17.560 You know
01:10:17.880 ever since I
01:10:18.580 started checking
01:10:19.300 profiles when I
01:10:20.500 see extra
01:10:21.440 dumb opinions
01:10:22.220 whenever you
01:10:23.740 see extra
01:10:24.340 dumb they're
01:10:25.720 artists.
01:10:26.800 Now writers
01:10:27.320 are artists
01:10:27.900 so they're
01:10:28.740 either actors
01:10:29.420 writers
01:10:29.940 sculptors
01:10:31.880 that sort
01:10:32.240 of thing.
01:10:32.880 They're just
01:10:33.200 the dumbest
01:10:33.720 opinions.
01:10:34.080 What was
01:10:36.760 it?
01:10:36.980 There was a
01:10:37.420 Stephen King
01:10:38.780 tweet yesterday
01:10:41.200 that I almost
01:10:42.540 retweeted because
01:10:43.480 I totally
01:10:44.040 agreed with
01:10:44.580 him.
01:10:45.940 What was
01:10:46.680 that?
01:10:47.220 I tried to
01:10:48.500 remember what
01:10:49.040 it was because
01:10:49.780 I always like to
01:10:50.620 point out when I
01:10:51.560 agree with
01:10:52.220 somebody that I
01:10:52.820 usually disagree
01:10:53.500 with.
01:10:56.220 He made some
01:10:57.280 good point the
01:10:58.020 other day that
01:10:58.560 I thought oh
01:10:59.220 that's actually a
01:11:00.080 good point.
01:11:00.460 so anyway do
01:11:07.200 you think that
01:11:07.860 the viewers are
01:11:08.840 left holding a
01:11:09.540 sense of betrayal
01:11:10.420 because they
01:11:11.500 allowed Trump
01:11:12.220 the leader of
01:11:13.760 the polling in
01:11:15.640 the Republican
01:11:16.120 Party for
01:11:17.120 president of the
01:11:17.780 United States.
01:11:18.880 Would you feel
01:11:19.720 betrayed if you
01:11:20.660 heard what he had
01:11:21.160 to say?
01:11:22.600 Betrayal.
01:11:23.660 Doesn't that tell
01:11:24.480 you that they
01:11:25.020 don't expect the
01:11:26.160 news to give
01:11:26.800 them news?
01:11:28.780 Isn't that really
01:11:29.720 clear now?
01:11:31.060 Like there's a
01:11:31.700 real strong
01:11:32.920 preference that
01:11:34.660 people know that
01:11:36.380 they watch the
01:11:36.960 news for the
01:11:37.540 dopamine not the
01:11:38.420 information.
01:11:39.740 If you watch
01:11:40.560 Fox News, which
01:11:42.880 I like to do,
01:11:44.440 they're going to
01:11:44.940 give you one
01:11:45.500 dopamine hit after
01:11:46.480 another because
01:11:47.980 they're going to
01:11:48.300 be agreeing with
01:11:49.000 their audience all
01:11:49.640 the time.
01:11:50.580 So it's like hey
01:11:51.080 audience, you
01:11:51.900 think this, we
01:11:52.980 think it too.
01:11:54.260 And then you get
01:11:54.720 that little dopamine
01:11:55.500 hit.
01:11:56.820 But CNN took
01:11:58.180 away the dopamine
01:11:59.120 hit for one
01:11:59.700 night, so their
01:12:01.160 viewers didn't get
01:12:01.960 a dopamine hit,
01:12:02.740 they got
01:12:03.100 information, useful
01:12:05.260 political information
01:12:06.340 which is what
01:12:07.040 Trump's up to
01:12:07.900 and his opinions.
01:12:09.540 And they felt
01:12:10.300 betrayed by it.
01:12:11.740 They were betrayed
01:12:12.620 because their
01:12:13.160 dopamine got
01:12:13.780 taken away.
01:12:14.900 Oh, give me
01:12:16.160 back my dopamine.
01:12:17.520 I'm addicted.
01:12:19.500 Well, I forget
01:12:21.040 if I talked about
01:12:21.780 this, but the
01:12:22.720 more I think
01:12:23.180 about it, the
01:12:23.760 biggest thing
01:12:24.500 that came out
01:12:24.980 of that town
01:12:25.420 hall hasn't been
01:12:26.940 discussed at all.
01:12:27.960 because you
01:12:29.300 always get into
01:12:30.080 Trump's behavior
01:12:31.260 as opposed to
01:12:31.880 his policies.
01:12:33.280 But to me,
01:12:34.240 Trump reframing
01:12:36.480 abortion from a
01:12:38.780 question of life,
01:12:40.160 you know, when
01:12:40.500 does it begin?
01:12:41.260 Because nobody
01:12:41.800 will ever agree
01:12:42.620 on that, to a
01:12:44.180 question of how
01:12:44.840 you decide is the
01:12:47.800 most useful thing
01:12:48.820 that's happened on
01:12:49.640 this debate in my
01:12:50.780 lifetime.
01:12:51.200 If he can pull
01:12:53.360 that off, and I
01:12:54.960 think he can, that
01:12:56.780 is really good for
01:12:57.980 the country.
01:12:59.480 And here's what I'm
01:13:00.420 talking about.
01:13:02.020 So he's talked
01:13:03.000 about the Supreme
01:13:04.300 Court getting the
01:13:05.960 federal government
01:13:06.740 out of the
01:13:07.380 decision-making.
01:13:08.420 So that's what
01:13:08.980 Roe v. Wade was
01:13:09.880 about.
01:13:10.660 Overturing that
01:13:11.460 allowed the federal
01:13:12.380 government to be
01:13:13.220 out of the loop,
01:13:14.580 and now the states
01:13:15.420 get to decide what
01:13:16.400 is and is not
01:13:17.240 illegal.
01:13:18.320 So Trump says
01:13:19.840 that that's his
01:13:20.680 accomplishment.
01:13:21.920 His accomplishment
01:13:22.720 is getting the
01:13:23.780 justices who would
01:13:26.620 kick it out of the
01:13:27.300 federal government
01:13:28.000 and drive it down
01:13:29.420 closer to the
01:13:30.200 individual.
01:13:31.140 Now, he didn't say
01:13:31.700 it that way, but I
01:13:33.020 hope he does, which
01:13:34.420 is if you can't
01:13:35.960 decide the right
01:13:36.840 answer for something
01:13:37.660 on a life-and-death
01:13:38.740 question, the best
01:13:40.220 you can do is drive
01:13:42.100 the decision as
01:13:43.020 close as you can to
01:13:44.320 the people who are
01:13:45.540 affected by it.
01:13:46.840 State is closer
01:13:48.340 than the federal
01:13:49.040 government, and
01:13:50.460 then each state can
01:13:51.400 negotiate for their
01:13:53.220 best situation.
01:13:54.440 But Trump talks
01:13:55.280 about it as a
01:13:56.040 negotiation, trying
01:13:58.240 to make everybody
01:13:59.100 as happy as
01:14:00.160 possible.
01:14:01.280 He doesn't talk
01:14:02.200 about it as winning
01:14:03.120 and preserving
01:14:04.960 life, and it's
01:14:07.160 binary, there's no
01:14:08.500 flexibility here.
01:14:10.000 He acknowledges he
01:14:11.120 has some exceptions.
01:14:12.520 He prefers no
01:14:13.440 abortion, but he
01:14:14.640 allows some
01:14:15.140 exceptions.
01:14:15.520 And he's saying
01:14:16.920 that you don't
01:14:17.380 have to follow
01:14:17.900 my exceptions, but
01:14:19.860 you have to
01:14:20.260 negotiate, and you
01:14:21.880 have to come up
01:14:22.420 with something that
01:14:23.040 will allow you all
01:14:24.280 to live together.
01:14:25.760 And that's very
01:14:26.620 much the best way
01:14:27.900 for the president
01:14:29.180 to frame it.
01:14:33.020 I don't want the
01:14:34.060 president's opinion
01:14:34.920 on abortion.
01:14:36.860 I don't mind that I
01:14:38.040 know his personal
01:14:38.840 opinion, which he
01:14:40.480 tells us.
01:14:41.340 I don't mind that.
01:14:42.160 But I don't want
01:14:43.580 him telling the
01:14:44.780 country who
01:14:45.400 should die, the
01:14:47.100 citizens, who
01:14:49.120 should live and who
01:14:49.780 should die.
01:14:50.600 Now, outside of
01:14:51.640 national defense, of
01:14:54.020 course, that's his
01:14:54.600 job.
01:14:55.480 But I want a
01:14:56.480 president who just
01:14:57.300 says, I'm going to
01:14:58.140 try to keep everybody
01:14:58.980 alive.
01:15:00.100 If you're an
01:15:00.580 American, or even
01:15:02.940 illegal, anything, or
01:15:04.560 even illegal, I'm
01:15:05.840 going to try to keep
01:15:06.400 everybody alive.
01:15:08.720 That's my thing.
01:15:09.640 But I also
01:15:12.720 understand that people
01:15:13.880 need to live with
01:15:14.580 each other, so you
01:15:15.400 need to negotiate
01:15:16.060 this in a way where
01:15:17.540 you're all a little
01:15:18.140 bit unhappy, but you
01:15:19.300 found a way to live
01:15:20.120 together.
01:15:22.220 And what that does
01:15:24.700 is it takes Trump's
01:15:26.180 personality and
01:15:27.840 emotion out of the
01:15:28.640 question, and that
01:15:30.000 is the best framing
01:15:32.400 I've seen.
01:15:33.680 You do not want
01:15:35.060 your president's
01:15:36.120 opinion on this,
01:15:39.640 to sway.
01:15:41.080 You want your
01:15:41.900 president to make
01:15:42.700 sure that he's
01:15:43.520 created a situation
01:15:44.620 where the people
01:15:45.900 closest to the
01:15:47.500 actual individuals,
01:15:48.680 the state, can
01:15:50.400 work it out.
01:15:51.780 It's kind of
01:15:52.460 perfect.
01:15:53.340 It's perfect in the
01:15:54.160 sense that you
01:15:54.620 couldn't do better
01:15:55.280 than that.
01:15:56.200 There's no way he
01:15:57.100 could sell his
01:15:57.760 personal view on
01:15:58.760 abortion.
01:15:59.880 He can't sell it,
01:16:01.320 because everybody
01:16:01.840 has their own
01:16:02.340 personal view of
01:16:03.100 abortion, and they're
01:16:03.800 not going to change.
01:16:04.940 But you could
01:16:05.540 definitely get people
01:16:06.300 to sit down and not
01:16:07.200 kill each other, and
01:16:08.500 come up with a set
01:16:10.560 of laws that are
01:16:11.460 maybe individualized
01:16:12.900 by state.
01:16:15.940 It was a bad
01:16:16.740 law, yeah, because
01:16:17.640 it was law made in
01:16:19.560 the wrong place.
01:16:21.020 So I agree with the
01:16:21.940 Supreme Court on the
01:16:23.940 limited question of
01:16:25.060 who should be making
01:16:26.020 the decisions.
01:16:30.220 Framing is not a
01:16:31.020 thing unless you're a
01:16:31.780 propaganda artist.
01:16:32.800 Well, framing is
01:16:34.240 politics, and
01:16:35.400 politics is persuasion
01:16:37.580 and propaganda, et
01:16:38.700 cetera.
01:16:39.900 So, yeah, you're not
01:16:41.240 wrong.
01:16:41.740 I wouldn't use those
01:16:42.440 words, but you're not
01:16:43.260 wrong.
01:16:44.600 All right.
01:16:46.100 So I don't think
01:16:47.540 Trump gets enough
01:16:48.360 credit for that,
01:16:49.160 because that's pure
01:16:49.840 genius, and it just
01:16:51.400 gets lost in a cat
01:16:53.340 named Vagina.
01:16:58.580 When does a new
01:16:59.440 American citizen gain
01:17:00.540 its right to life?
01:17:01.820 Well, nobody's going
01:17:03.700 to agree.
01:17:04.400 That would be the
01:17:05.140 problem.
01:17:06.220 So you negotiate it,
01:17:07.980 and you figure out how
01:17:08.980 to live together.
01:17:10.520 But you don't find the
01:17:12.040 answer that's your best
01:17:13.100 answer, because that's
01:17:14.320 not, it's just not
01:17:15.180 available for everybody.
01:17:18.500 All right.
01:17:19.420 Let's talk about that
01:17:20.400 Ukraine offensive.
01:17:23.280 When Trump entered the
01:17:24.900 conversation, he said on
01:17:26.120 day one when he's in
01:17:27.260 office he's going to end
01:17:28.180 the fighting.
01:17:28.600 And apparently it's
01:17:31.100 credible enough that
01:17:32.960 both Ukraine and
01:17:33.880 Russia now have a
01:17:34.940 deadline.
01:17:37.460 It's like he gave them
01:17:38.900 a deadline and he's not
01:17:39.940 even in office.
01:17:41.140 Apparently it's going to
01:17:42.000 work.
01:17:43.060 What I mean by that is
01:17:44.260 that Ukraine is probably
01:17:45.900 panicking that whatever
01:17:47.860 counter-offensive they're
01:17:49.060 going to do, they better
01:17:50.100 hurry up, because there
01:17:51.980 won't be any more
01:17:52.620 counter-offenses when
01:17:53.780 Trump's in office.
01:17:55.180 That's what it looks
01:17:55.820 like.
01:17:56.880 And also Russia,
01:17:59.640 whatever damage they
01:18:00.720 think they're going to
01:18:01.280 do to Ukraine, they
01:18:02.160 better get going, because
01:18:03.840 you're not going to have
01:18:04.460 two years to do it.
01:18:06.060 You've got one good year
01:18:07.320 to do whatever you're
01:18:08.100 going to do.
01:18:08.880 Now it could be that this
01:18:10.600 will intensify the
01:18:11.680 fighting like crazy, but
01:18:13.620 compress it.
01:18:14.760 Because everybody wants
01:18:15.820 to be in the best
01:18:16.440 situation when you begin
01:18:17.740 the negotiations.
01:18:19.220 So each side is going to
01:18:20.540 try to win as much as
01:18:21.680 they can, because it's
01:18:23.860 part of the negotiation.
01:18:25.680 So here's what's
01:18:26.300 happened.
01:18:28.380 Just think about this.
01:18:30.820 With one town hall,
01:18:33.160 Trump had changed the
01:18:34.200 war from a forever war
01:18:35.720 to a one-year war.
01:18:39.400 Think about that.
01:18:41.500 It's a one-year war now.
01:18:43.720 He put a timer on it.
01:18:45.800 And both sides will act
01:18:47.680 like the timer is
01:18:48.620 ticking.
01:18:49.580 And when he gets into
01:18:50.580 office, they will have
01:18:51.480 already decided that that
01:18:52.900 must be the real
01:18:53.580 deadline.
01:18:54.300 They will have talked
01:18:55.260 themselves into the fact
01:18:56.420 that he's going to end
01:18:57.220 the war.
01:18:58.280 Because they're going to
01:18:59.040 act like it for a year.
01:19:00.800 And then when he's in
01:19:01.540 office, they will have
01:19:02.460 already talked themselves
01:19:03.340 into it.
01:19:04.120 Oh, this is when the war
01:19:05.440 ends.
01:19:06.340 Oh, I get it.
01:19:07.740 Like, now, that's when
01:19:08.820 it ends.
01:19:09.660 Okay.
01:19:10.500 So between now and then,
01:19:11.660 we've got to do everything
01:19:12.420 we can to support that
01:19:14.380 deadline, you know, in our
01:19:16.000 favor.
01:19:16.280 I don't think you, I
01:19:19.980 haven't heard anybody in
01:19:21.060 the news talk about the
01:19:23.220 fact that he just ended
01:19:24.180 the war.
01:19:26.820 He put a deadline on it.
01:19:28.440 It's a one-year war now.
01:19:30.480 All that's going to happen
01:19:31.660 between now and Trump being
01:19:33.360 in office, they assume,
01:19:35.560 will be that they'll fight
01:19:38.060 as hard as they can to get
01:19:39.200 a better negotiating
01:19:40.480 position.
01:19:41.020 The war itself is over.
01:19:47.000 He ended the war.
01:19:50.840 And nobody's even talking
01:19:52.200 about it.
01:19:53.300 He ended the war.
01:19:55.060 Everything that happens now
01:19:56.220 is not the war.
01:19:58.140 Everything from this point
01:19:59.140 on is a negotiation.
01:20:01.540 It's completely different.
01:20:04.920 So not only did Trump
01:20:06.820 reframe abortion in the
01:20:09.380 best way anybody's
01:20:10.960 ever done it, nobody's
01:20:12.760 come close.
01:20:14.040 He just ended a war
01:20:15.320 with an interview.
01:20:17.800 Come on.
01:20:19.900 Come on.
01:20:22.120 You see it, right?
01:20:23.900 It's just me?
01:20:26.040 You got really quiet
01:20:27.240 because I think you're
01:20:28.000 processing that right now.
01:20:30.180 But he did put a timer
01:20:31.440 on the war.
01:20:32.580 Nobody else could do
01:20:33.440 that.
01:20:35.220 Literally no one else.
01:20:37.100 If DeSantis said any of
01:20:38.740 the things that Trump
01:20:39.540 said, people would go,
01:20:41.380 eh, just sanctimonious.
01:20:43.480 He's probably not going to
01:20:44.220 be president anyway.
01:20:45.740 But when Trump says it,
01:20:47.860 you totally believe it.
01:20:50.600 Right?
01:20:51.640 It's the biggest news,
01:20:53.420 but because he talked
01:20:54.340 about a cat named
01:20:55.140 Vagina,
01:20:56.680 and he used the word
01:20:57.480 thug, CNN wants to talk
01:20:59.820 about that while
01:21:00.680 Anderson Cooper shows us
01:21:02.440 he should be in therapy.
01:21:03.340 And by the way,
01:21:05.640 he does look like he's
01:21:06.620 in trouble.
01:21:07.840 Doesn't he?
01:21:09.480 I mean, I'm no expert
01:21:12.240 on mental health,
01:21:13.960 but Anderson Cooper
01:21:14.840 looks like he's working
01:21:16.180 through some problems
01:21:18.640 of his own.
01:21:19.300 It doesn't look like
01:21:20.320 he's doing his job,
01:21:22.340 honestly.
01:21:26.580 All right.
01:21:27.800 Well, that,
01:21:28.580 ladies and gentlemen,
01:21:29.160 was the show you were
01:21:31.400 waiting for.
01:21:32.940 And it's the best thing
01:21:35.400 you'll see today.
01:21:37.560 Wait till tomorrow.
01:21:38.900 It's going to be
01:21:39.400 even better.
01:21:40.460 Wow.
01:21:41.020 So good.
01:21:42.380 And YouTube,
01:21:43.620 I'll talk to you tomorrow.
01:21:45.540 Appreciate you being here.
01:21:47.220 Thanks as always.
01:21:48.720 Bye.
