Real Coffee with Scott Adams - Episode 2106 Scott Adams： Trump Changed Everything On CNN, Migrant Surge, Economy, Twitter CEO!

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. 1.00

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, 1.00

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, 0.95

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, 1.00

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. 0.98

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, 0.98

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, 0.86

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. 0.84

00:08:06.060 Men don't want to divorce, 1.00

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. 1.00

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. 0.92

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, 0.94

00:09:30.580 non-binary,

00:09:31.720 or outright gay. 0.55

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, 1.00

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, 0.99

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, 0.82

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 1.00

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 0.98

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. 0.76

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, 0.85

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 0.77

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 1.00

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 0.65

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, 1.00

00:24:06.580 and Twitter

00:24:08.220 has a

00:24:08.640 woman problem. 1.00

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 1.00

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 0.86

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 1.00

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 0.62

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 0.75

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 0.50

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 0.89

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, 0.77

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 0.99

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 0.91

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 1.00

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 0.99

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 0.98

00:40:25.500 warning that 0.80

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 0.99

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 0.51

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, 1.00

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. 0.81

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 0.98

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 0.98

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' 0.58

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 1.00

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 0.99

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 0.62

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 0.59

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 0.83

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 0.79

01:08:20.960 officer a

01:08:21.660 thug.

01:08:23.020 The black 0.94

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. 0.51

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 0.69

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 1.00

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. 0.81

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 0.96

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 1.00

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 0.74

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 0.96

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 0.51

01:15:00.580 American, or even 0.63

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 1.00

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 0.90

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. 1.00

01:16:58.580 When does a new

01:16:59.440 American citizen gain 0.50

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 0.54

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 1.00

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 0.97

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, 1.00

01:20:56.680 and he used the word

01:20:57.480 thug, CNN wants to talk 1.00

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.
