Real Coffee with Scott Adams - Episode 2204 Scott Adams： Will Robert Peters Beat John Barron In The Election？ Come Find Out

00:00:00.920 Good morning, everybody, and welcome to the highlight of human civilization.

00:00:06.160 Possibly some alien civilizations, maybe AI and some simulated realities.

00:00:11.000 But for now, let's just stick to the stuff we know.

00:00:14.360 And if you'd like to take this up to levels that you've never even imagined would be possible,

00:00:19.240 all you do is a cup or a mug or a glass, a tank or a chalice or a stein, a canteen jug or a flask,

00:00:23.320 a vessel of any kind, fill it with your favorite liquid.

00:00:27.300 I like coffee.

00:00:28.000 And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure, the dopamine to the day, the thing that makes everything better.

00:00:33.540 It's called the simultaneous sip.

00:00:36.840 It happens now.

00:00:37.960 Go.

00:00:41.980 Oh, that's good.

00:00:43.360 Yeah, that's good.

00:00:45.080 Oh, yeah.

00:00:46.780 Well, there's so much news.

00:00:48.740 I barely know where to begin.

00:00:50.840 It's all amusing and interesting and, well, I don't know.

00:00:54.820 This could be the best time you've ever had in your life.

00:00:56.740 It's about to happen.

00:00:58.880 Now, let me start with a video I saw from Joshua Steinman.

00:01:05.080 He was wondering why in this video they showed a dad making a sound to calm his crying baby.

00:01:13.380 And I'll try to reproduce the sound, but basically the baby's crying next to him.

00:01:19.520 He just looks at the baby and he goes, oh, basically.

00:01:25.840 You know, maybe I didn't get the tone exactly.

00:01:28.100 And the baby just goes, oh, and just completely stops crying and goes into a hole at the moat.

00:01:36.480 And Joshua asked, what's going on here?

00:01:38.780 Like, why does that work?

00:01:40.980 You know, what is the magic of the sound?

00:01:43.340 And as your friendly neighborhood hypnotist, I thought I would take a shot at answering that question because it's more interesting than you think.

00:01:53.320 I think that when the father goes, oh, and the baby stops crying, it's as simple as it moves the baby's thinking to another part of the baby's brain.

00:02:04.400 When it comes to brains and psychology, think of it like real estate.

00:02:13.640 Location, location, location.

00:02:16.040 If somebody's using a part of their brain and there's something about that that's not working either for you or for them,

00:02:24.020 you want to get them away from that part of the brain.

00:02:26.420 You just move them to a different part.

00:02:28.260 So the baby presumably was in there's something I need mode.

00:02:32.080 Need some food, need some something.

00:02:35.340 I need something.

00:02:36.520 But probably wasn't in any kind of great distress.

00:02:39.920 It's just the babies can't talk.

00:02:41.960 So when there's any little thing they need, they cry.

00:02:45.820 So it's not too hard to get somebody distracted from a thing that's, you know, not that big a deal and maybe a little bit hungry.

00:02:55.480 So the humming is so unusual for the environment because the babies heard talking.

00:03:01.800 They've heard general noise, but they don't know what this is.

00:03:05.520 You know, they'd probably have the same reaction if, say, an alarm went off.

00:03:10.020 They'd stop and, oh, what's this new thing?

00:03:12.800 So probably the only thing that's happening is that the brain, the baby replaced, I would say, the need for food, perhaps.

00:03:21.720 It replaced that with curiosity.

00:03:24.180 Now, here's the lesson.

00:03:27.000 And by the way, my new book, Reframe Your Brain, is along these lines.

00:03:32.920 It's how to reprogram your own brain fairly quickly.

00:03:35.760 And that's what's happening with the baby.

00:03:37.920 The baby's brain is being reprogrammed in real time, simply moving the program from one part of the brain to another.

00:03:43.840 And curiosity is an insanely underrated human impulse.

00:03:51.000 We're designed or we're evolved to be curious.

00:03:55.680 And that curiosity is what keeps us alive, right?

00:03:59.220 If you hear a mysterious sound behind you, you're going to turn around because it might be danger.

00:04:07.120 So curiosity is literally baked into your survival.

00:04:09.940 So if you want somebody to get away from hunger, let's say the baby crying, then curiosity, uh-oh, there might be something here that I really need to know about right away.

00:04:21.700 That's the way to do it.

00:04:23.160 So if you want to distract somebody, use curiosity.

00:04:28.860 It's the same if you're in the car with your kids.

00:04:32.320 This is a trick I used on stepkids.

00:04:34.900 And the kids are a certain age, and they're in the back, and they're just arguing.

00:04:37.620 And they get in that mode where they can't get out of it.

00:04:40.300 They're just fighting verbally.

00:04:42.500 This works almost every time.

00:04:44.700 Look, a deer.

00:04:47.840 Even though everybody's seen a deer, it evokes that there's something different, curiosity thing.

00:04:54.820 And kids will stop immediately.

00:04:56.840 Where?

00:04:57.840 And it's not even that interesting.

00:04:59.880 It just goes to their curiosity part of the brain, and then they're done.

00:05:03.460 So that is the same kind of effect that, at least in one way, it's the same kind of effect as a reframe.

00:05:13.320 A reframe takes you from where your thoughts are physically in the real state in your brain.

00:05:20.640 It just moves it to another part.

00:05:23.380 Sometimes that's all you need.

00:05:25.440 You just got to move away from where you are and move to another part.

00:05:28.340 So reframes do that instantly, and that's one of the reasons they work.

00:05:32.820 It's not the only reason, but it's a key part.

00:05:35.620 We'll talk about that more.

00:05:36.840 My book, Reframe Your Brain, just launched yesterday, but only on Kindle.

00:05:41.540 Only on Kindle.

00:05:43.020 And we hope today, maybe tomorrow, we should get approval from Amazon to start selling the hard copy.

00:05:51.400 So the hard copy, maybe in a day.

00:05:54.140 We'll see.

00:05:54.680 I'll let you know as soon as I know.

00:05:55.720 All right.

00:05:59.380 Trump said he's not going to have that election fraud event he was going to have,

00:06:03.360 where he was going to talk about all the election fraud he's seen, I guess.

00:06:07.460 So instead, they're going to wrap that into some kind of legal filing.

00:06:12.940 Does it sound like he had the goods?

00:06:17.220 Not really.

00:06:19.980 I think if he had the goods, he would go along with it.

00:06:22.560 So I remind you that 95% of all election claims are false.

00:06:29.460 Don't know if there are any real ones.

00:06:31.820 I don't know.

00:06:33.480 Oh, damn it.

00:06:34.340 I just got demonetized.

00:06:36.220 Shit.

00:06:36.660 I don't know that for sure, but those are the key words that got me demonetized the last several times.

00:06:46.600 You can't say anything about it.

00:06:48.680 So I think when I talk about it again later, I'll use code words.

00:06:53.880 I think you'll know what I'm talking about.

00:06:56.180 But when we get to that point, I'm just going to use code words.

00:06:58.580 All right.

00:07:02.620 Apparently, there's a technology that can make plastic, or it can replace plastic, using plant and woods.

00:07:10.880 You know, plant-based stuff and wood.

00:07:12.980 Now, apparently, this is already in use.

00:07:14.680 It's just more expensive than the old-fashioned way to make plastic.

00:07:17.660 So the big change would be if they could make it more efficient.

00:07:23.600 I guess they're working towards that.

00:07:25.500 And it's starting to grow, this plant-based and wood-based plastic.

00:07:31.580 Now, if this becomes a big thing, let's say all of our plastic started to get replaced with plant-based and tree-based plastic,

00:07:41.020 like, logically, you would want to increase your supply of plants and trees.

00:07:49.360 So if this were me, I would be looking to add something out of some kind of a fertilizer-like thing to the planet, if you could.

00:07:59.020 Is there any way to do that?

00:07:59.980 Is there any way to add something to, let's say, the atmosphere so it gets everywhere that would promote the growth of these plants?

00:08:09.280 Because we're going to need a lot of them to turn them into plastic.

00:08:14.620 I can't think of anything.

00:08:16.140 If you think of anything, let me know.

00:08:18.700 CO2.

00:08:20.560 CO2.

00:08:21.340 Well, now you're thinking.

00:08:23.400 This brainstorming session is going well so far.

00:08:28.020 CO2.

00:08:28.900 I'll take that under consideration.

00:08:31.560 Well, New Zealand, I think this was in a Peter Zayn tweet,

00:08:37.180 has figured out how to lower the cost of housing.

00:08:41.860 Do you want to know what amazing, amazing idea they had to do it?

00:08:47.460 They reduced their building zoning restrictions.

00:08:52.560 That's all it took.

00:08:54.280 That's it.

00:08:55.260 I think the biggest change was they allowed multi-unit homes on what had been single-family homes.

00:09:02.000 So imagine if you were a single-family home owner and you wanted to turn it into, let's say, a triplex so three families could live there.

00:09:12.200 You had plenty of room.

00:09:13.560 You just couldn't do it.

00:09:15.660 It was just illegal.

00:09:17.980 So New Zealand just said, well, how about we make that legal?

00:09:22.420 And guess what happened?

00:09:23.520 Free market.

00:09:24.500 A bunch of people bought.

00:09:25.320 You know, a bunch of people and companies built multi-unit homes.

00:09:30.940 They were all built to code.

00:09:33.100 You know, it wasn't like they were unsafe.

00:09:35.020 It's just they weren't allowed before.

00:09:37.240 So now they have plenty of homes, and so the cost of housing went down.

00:09:42.280 I wonder if something like that could work in the United States.

00:09:45.800 Well, the problem with the United States is that we've got all these states, all 50 of them, and they all have their own regulations.

00:09:55.380 So unless we had some kind of a federal regulation that could override local ones, that would be a problem in our system.

00:10:04.260 But, yeah, the ADU market, the little homes that you can ship in on a truck and just plop in your backyard, I don't know if you follow the news on that, but they're exploding.

00:10:17.560 If you're on Instagram and you've ever clicked on one of those ads, you get all these other companies that are popping up, building these, usually like a 400-square-foot home that they just deliver and plop down on your land.

00:10:32.340 So all that stuff is possible.

00:10:35.220 I think housing can be fixed.

00:10:37.260 We just have to tweak the zoning.

00:10:40.940 All right.

00:10:41.580 I saw an interesting back and forth on the livability of San Francisco.

00:10:46.920 Paul Graham, who spent a lot of time in San Francisco, he said San Francisco, he wouldn't recommend it for raising children.

00:10:56.460 But he thought that a young person who was careful, you know, might be okay.

00:11:04.520 Is that the worst recommendation you've ever heard for a city?

00:11:08.680 What do you think of San Francisco, the jewel of California?

00:11:12.460 Well, I wouldn't bring children there.

00:11:16.840 And unless you're under 25 and you can run pretty fast, it's kind of a bad bet.

00:11:21.360 So there's your San Francisco.

00:11:26.100 You know, what's interesting also is that San Francisco is now teaming with self-driving taxis.

00:11:32.920 I think that happened kind of overnight, it seems.

00:11:36.840 Is there anybody from San Francisco watching?

00:11:39.860 Can you confirm that there are self-driving taxis that are in operation and that they're somewhat almost ubiquitous?

00:11:47.100 Is that really happening?

00:11:51.020 Because I haven't seen videos or first-person reports, but I see news reports about it.

00:11:57.240 Yeah.

00:11:58.060 Okay.

00:11:58.920 So we have one confirmation from Iceland.

00:12:04.020 Good enough.

00:12:06.960 So that's interesting.

00:12:08.180 Now, what's interesting about that is years ago I wrote a book that you can't buy because I'm banned for most of my other books.

00:12:14.980 It's called The Religion War.

00:12:17.480 It was a sequel to my book, God's Debris.

00:12:20.160 And in The Religion War, it was set in a time in the future, because I wrote this 20 years ago.

00:12:25.460 It was set in a time in the future where small drones were attacking cities.

00:12:30.640 That's happening now in Moscow.

00:12:33.180 Right?

00:12:33.400 Small drones attacking cities.

00:12:35.480 And that the main mode of transportation was self-driving taxis that you could call with your app.

00:12:43.140 This was 20 years ago.

00:12:45.820 And the other part was that if you used your massive databases of computing that knows what everybody's doing in the world, sort of like we have now,

00:12:57.760 that you could identify what I called in the fictional story the prime influencer.

00:13:04.280 The prime influencer.

00:13:05.800 The idea was that, you know how ideas just sort of catch on?

00:13:11.600 There'll be something that is in the back of your mind for a while or maybe you've never heard of, and then all of a sudden, everybody's into it.

00:13:20.020 And it seems like maybe it'd been around forever, but why does everybody care about it right now?

00:13:24.180 And the fictional idea was you could trace back the lines of influence, if you could find out who did what social media, who knows who, you know, who has influence over who, that you could find the lines of influence.

00:13:40.560 And that you could identify the one person.

00:13:43.420 Now, in the fiction model, there was one person.

00:13:46.020 In the real world, it would be multiple people who had influence over their domains.

00:13:50.460 And I wondered, could you identify somebody in today's world that had such an influence over politics, let's say, in the last, you know, eight to ten years, that, no, it's not me.

00:14:06.260 It's not me.

00:14:08.020 Can you think of one individual who changed the actual canvas?

00:14:14.440 I mean, things look really different.

00:14:18.600 Mike Certovich.

00:14:20.460 And the fun part about it is, there's a lot of people in the world who have never even heard his name.

00:14:27.160 Now, I'm not going to, I mean, I'm not even going to press the argument.

00:14:31.460 Because if you know, you know.

00:14:34.400 And if you want to know, you can figure it out.

00:14:36.740 You can talk to people.

00:14:37.800 You can do a lot of research.

00:14:39.320 Someday, somebody might write the book.

00:14:41.680 Like, if you saw it in a book, you know, what things he influenced and then, and how that spread out.

00:14:48.320 Now, I count myself as one of the people who you're listening to primarily because of him.

00:14:56.460 In my earliest, you know, forays of talking about politics, he boosted me.

00:15:01.920 But if you didn't notice, he's boosted a number of other people.

00:15:05.340 So he got there on his own with, you know, guerrilla mindset, his book, and being one of the best tweeters of all time, right?

00:15:13.760 And having the full set of communication and persuasion tools, which is unusual to have a full set.

00:15:20.500 And he did more than just make his own brand well-known, but he seeded a lot of other people, including me, so that when our influence grew, it was sort of a shadow of things that were at least compatible with a lot of things that he would influence.

00:15:40.380 So I think someday we'll actually be able to measure this, and you'll be able to find out who is the most influential, and there's no way to track that now.

00:15:51.800 You would actually have to really be immersed in this sort of social media political world to even know who is influential.

00:16:01.020 Because there are a lot of people you see on TV who are the, you know, the talking heads with the nice suits, who just say what everybody else says.

00:16:09.620 They don't have any persuasive power whatsoever.

00:16:12.760 Nobody's trying to copy them, right?

00:16:15.220 Nobody's looking at Jake Tapper and saying, I like that suit.

00:16:20.080 I mean, he wears really nice suits, but nobody's looking at him saying, I'd like to be that haircut.

00:16:26.520 You know, whatever he's doing, I'd like to do more of that.

00:16:29.020 Like, that's just not something that the normal media inspires.

00:16:33.680 So you have to look to other people for that.

00:16:36.400 All right, here's my opinion on the cities.

00:16:39.980 Speaking of cities, I think that cities are not just places where there are too many addicts.

00:16:48.000 They're also that.

00:16:49.900 But I think the cities are addicts themselves.

00:16:53.200 And they're addicted to destructive empathy.

00:16:55.660 The empathy that feels good.

00:16:59.420 Like, oh, I told you that I'm a sanctuary city.

00:17:04.020 I told you that my police don't arrest people.

00:17:06.920 I told you that we're not bad to the street people.

00:17:10.160 So there's some kind of, I think it's probably dopamine.

00:17:14.100 There must be some dopamine hit that you get from acting superior, morally superior, having more empathy than other people.

00:17:23.340 But that's largely, you could call it liberals.

00:17:27.500 But that feels insulting to me.

00:17:30.880 I'm not going to say the cities are being destroyed by liberals, because I'm pretty sure there are plenty of liberals who don't like anything that's happening in the cities.

00:17:41.640 So it's not liberals, per se.

00:17:43.960 There's some kind of addiction.

00:17:46.460 It feels like, and when you see that reason has been dispensed with, what does that tell you?

00:17:53.560 Because these are not all stupid people.

00:17:55.520 There's an addiction.

00:18:00.160 And I would think that, you know, without getting into who's a progressive, who's a liberal, without even getting into the politics.

00:18:09.040 I think the politics probably follows the emotion, not the other way.

00:18:13.040 And I think that there's an addiction to being nice, or empathetic, that they can't shake.

00:18:19.440 Because the way you would fix any of this stuff is being meaner to people.

00:18:23.920 Am I right?

00:18:25.220 The solution to the cities is to treat the people who are in the worst situation already, to treat them in a mean or severe way.

00:18:36.080 Because that's the only thing that changes behavior, basically.

00:18:39.900 So, here's my prediction.

00:18:42.560 Cities, like addicts, have to hit bottom.

00:18:46.440 Cities have to bottom.

00:18:47.700 They can't come back until they bottom.

00:18:50.600 Because there won't be the will to do anything.

00:18:53.800 As long as it's sort of working, you're sort of still, you know, the traffic lights are sort of working.

00:19:00.880 And, you know, it's still, sometimes the police show up, maybe late, but sometimes they do.

00:19:07.260 You know, as long as it's still sort of working, nobody's going to change anything.

00:19:10.900 Because they're addicts.

00:19:12.340 They're addicted to the feeling of being kind to people.

00:19:15.520 But at some point, they will hit bottom.

00:19:19.100 And there'll be, you know, some city will just become unlivable completely.

00:19:24.380 And then things will change.

00:19:26.140 But not until, not until then.

00:19:28.620 So, wait for the cities to bottom.

00:19:30.480 And I don't think we're quite that close to it.

00:19:33.200 Might be within three years.

00:19:35.120 Total destruction of city living.

00:19:37.640 And that will be not the bad news.

00:19:39.880 That will be the good news.

00:19:41.820 Right.

00:19:42.620 If you're not aware of this, when an alcoholic hits bottom, and they survive, which is dicey, that's the only way they can ever get better.

00:19:54.720 They say they can bottom.

00:19:55.700 So it's not bad news.

00:19:56.880 It's necessary news.

00:19:59.060 All right.

00:19:59.680 Brazil is testing some kind of a cocaine vaccination.

00:20:02.820 You get the vaccination, and the cocaine doesn't feel so good.

00:20:06.280 I don't have great hopes for that.

00:20:10.340 But it does suggest that if Big Pharma got involved, anything could happen.

00:20:15.480 Meaning that they could force, they could make it mandatory, I suppose.

00:20:20.020 You know, if they had enough power over the government.

00:20:22.760 So I'm not in favor of vaccinations for cocaine users.

00:20:27.580 I think they would just switch to other drugs.

00:20:30.260 You just have to keep upgrading the vaccination.

00:20:32.740 Then you'll have a fentanyl vaccination, which I think they're working on, actually.

00:20:36.560 Then you'll need a heroin vaccination, and then you're going to need a marijuana vaccination.

00:20:40.720 And then, of course, an alcohol vaccination.

00:20:43.380 Do you think the vaccination industry is going to stop with the one drug?

00:20:48.160 If they get that through, everybody's going to be spinning up new vaccinations for everything.

00:20:53.620 You don't think there's going to be a vaccination for sugar?

00:20:57.280 Of course, oh, you said it before me.

00:20:58.940 Damn it.

00:21:00.120 Damn it.

00:21:00.560 The comments beat me.

00:21:02.120 Yeah, there will be a vaccination for sugar.

00:21:04.400 For cigarettes?

00:21:05.360 Tobacco?

00:21:06.420 Yeah, of course.

00:21:07.780 Of course.

00:21:09.880 I'm not sure I feel good about that, but it's something that's out there.

00:21:13.040 There was a very important science thing that happened, and let me read you the science thing.

00:21:22.760 All right?

00:21:23.520 It's from the University of Kansas, Department of Physics.

00:21:27.100 And they did a study that, now listen to this carefully, because I don't want you to be confused by this.

00:21:32.740 It's very simple.

00:21:33.480 The study rigorously proved that the thermal fluctuations of freestanding graphene, when connected to a circuit with diodes, having nonlinear resistance, obviously linear resistance would be stupid.

00:21:47.300 But if the diodes have nonlinear resistance and the storage capacitors, it produces useful work by charging the storage capacitors.

00:21:57.360 So, you got that working for you.

00:22:00.460 I don't know what any of this means, but it seems to mean, it almost sounds like it could produce energy out of nothing.

00:22:11.080 When I say nothing, it's not actually nothing, but energy out of just sitting there.

00:22:16.580 Am I right?

00:22:17.820 Is that what it's saying?

00:22:19.380 That if this works, you can create energy just by sitting around.

00:22:24.100 You wouldn't need sun, or cold, or warm, or steam, or photons.

00:22:29.160 Is it photons?

00:22:31.900 All right.

00:22:33.400 Snoopy Boob says, LOL, Scott.

00:22:36.060 Very basic electronics.

00:22:37.720 Read a book.

00:22:39.660 Solid advice.

00:22:41.780 Read a book.

00:22:43.160 Thank you.

00:22:44.680 Book.

00:22:46.020 Oh.

00:22:48.760 All right.

00:22:50.800 So there's that.

00:22:51.980 Have any of you seen the, you all know the story of the musical sensation.

00:22:59.860 Is it Anthony Oliver?

00:23:02.740 He's got the big red beard and red hair, and he plays his banjo thing.

00:23:07.660 And his song, I forget the name of the song, but it's the one with your bullshit wages, etc.

00:23:12.820 What's the name of the song?

00:23:13.640 Oh, the rich man north of Richmond, which is also, by the way, an amazing title for a song.

00:23:21.000 The rich man north of Richmond.

00:23:23.260 Try not remembering that.

00:23:26.780 Yeah, I forgot it for a moment, but it came right back.

00:23:30.060 The rich man north of Richmond.

00:23:31.520 Man, that's good.

00:23:32.960 That's good.

00:23:33.300 I don't think he gets enough credit for his writing, this Anthony Oliver.

00:23:41.020 Because the singing, the performance is amazing.

00:23:44.020 He's very talented.

00:23:45.200 But the writing, the writing, ooh, the writing's kind of special.

00:23:50.580 It'd be interesting to see if this is something he can generalize to his other art.

00:23:55.940 I hope so.

00:23:56.680 It's pretty amazing.

00:23:57.800 But anyway, if you want to feel good about America, and I know you need this.

00:24:03.300 And maybe any place else as well.

00:24:06.860 Watch the videos.

00:24:09.120 You can Google it.

00:24:10.260 Just look for reaction videos of Anthony Oliver.

00:24:16.380 Reaction videos.

00:24:17.860 Now, a reaction video is where a YouTuber usually plays a video, often music,

00:24:24.120 and then you just see a little inset of the person reacting to it.

00:24:28.260 Now, usually the common ones would be a young black kid, a YouTuber,

00:24:36.600 listening to Led Zeppelin for the first time.

00:24:39.920 And then, you know, being amazed because they hadn't been exposed.

00:24:43.400 So anyway, here's what's special about this.

00:24:48.020 Somebody put together a compilation of all the different reaction videos

00:24:52.480 and overlaid it on the one performance.

00:24:54.900 So you could see all of the reactions, not just one person.

00:24:58.380 And what was special about it is that they did a really good job

00:25:02.240 of making sure you had a mix of people.

00:25:05.000 So you had maybe half of them were African American.

00:25:08.240 You had some Asian people watching.

00:25:10.180 You had Asian Americans.

00:25:11.100 You had some, you know, standard white people watching.

00:25:14.200 And here's the thing that touches you.

00:25:16.860 They all had the same reaction.

00:25:19.480 They were all brought to tears.

00:25:21.220 And when you watch the, you know, the white, the Asian American,

00:25:26.820 probably there was a Hispanic American in there somewhere,

00:25:30.300 and the black Americans,

00:25:32.240 who you would imagine would be on a different side of literally everything.

00:25:37.400 You know, if you watch the news, you assume that.

00:25:40.660 You watch them agreeing to tears.

00:25:46.080 Agreeing to the point of tears.

00:25:49.100 About the message in the song.

00:25:50.860 Not that the song was just beautiful, because it is,

00:25:54.240 but the message.

00:25:56.180 They agreed to tears.

00:25:59.000 That's the country you live in

00:26:00.720 if you get the government out of the way.

00:26:04.300 You get the media out of the way.

00:26:05.820 That was an unfiltered experience.

00:26:09.420 Nobody in the news told you how to feel about that.

00:26:11.840 I mean, the news kind of promoted it as a thing that exists.

00:26:15.420 But they didn't tell you how to feel about it.

00:26:17.720 Nobody told you how to feel about it.

00:26:19.180 That you just felt it.

00:26:21.740 And you can see in this that maybe, maybe,

00:26:27.860 this will be the moment when people realize

00:26:31.160 that the most important reframe in American history

00:26:36.420 is available, but not yet taken.

00:26:40.320 It's available because we all know it.

00:26:42.860 You know what I'm talking about.

00:26:43.980 It has never been black against white.

00:26:49.900 Or at least not in modern times.

00:26:52.180 No.

00:26:52.720 It's always been rich against poor.

00:26:54.800 That's what the song gets to.

00:26:56.500 It gets to that.

00:26:57.820 And everybody recognizes it upon exposure.

00:27:01.900 That's it.

00:27:03.540 If you just say it, you know, again,

00:27:05.760 if you're just a person on TV with a suit,

00:27:08.220 and you say, let me tell you, Jake Tapper,

00:27:11.480 the real story here is that we should be talking

00:27:13.460 about the rich versus the poor,

00:27:16.240 no impact.

00:27:18.100 No impact.

00:27:19.480 It's just a talking person saying some words.

00:27:22.860 Then you watch Anthony Oliver

00:27:25.940 choose words that are just better chosen,

00:27:29.900 more emotional, more persuasive

00:27:32.280 than anything I've ever seen on the same topic.

00:27:36.720 And he just cut through everything.

00:27:39.460 He just cut through all the noise.

00:27:42.060 It was sort of a perfect moment.

00:27:45.360 So if you're feeling bad about your country,

00:27:48.600 and you've got reasons, you've got reasons,

00:27:51.340 there is this one crack in the narrative

00:27:54.020 that one bearded guy with, what is that,

00:27:59.220 some kind of electric banjo or something,

00:28:02.280 one bearded guy with a banjo

00:28:04.680 just sliced through the narrative

00:28:06.740 like it wasn't even there.

00:28:09.800 That's inspiring.

00:28:11.960 That's inspiring.

00:28:14.000 All right.

00:28:18.020 China's got a youth unemployment at 21%.

00:28:20.960 Yikes.

00:28:22.800 So China's got problems.

00:28:24.380 Here are some things that are problems for China.

00:28:27.560 So Biden administration is ramping up

00:28:30.200 the technology controls,

00:28:34.720 or what would you call it,

00:28:36.200 the things that are banned

00:28:37.400 so that China can't get them.

00:28:40.320 And apparently, you know, at the moment,

00:28:44.400 China seems like they're solid.

00:28:47.340 But apparently all signals are

00:28:49.420 that the wheels are coming off.

00:28:51.380 All right.

00:28:51.660 The unemployment is high.

00:28:52.660 They've got a population bomb.

00:28:55.180 They've got a lot of,

00:28:56.580 they printed a lot of money.

00:28:57.720 I didn't know that.

00:28:58.440 But they printed more money than the U.S. has,

00:29:01.100 percentage-wise.

00:29:02.820 And they don't have access to

00:29:07.620 mid- or high-end semiconductors,

00:29:10.120 and there's no plan when that could happen.

00:29:15.040 What would happen to China

00:29:16.560 if they're actually cut off

00:29:18.760 from semiconductors

00:29:20.400 beyond the lowest level of them?

00:29:24.480 They're actually,

00:29:25.580 their civilization would grind to a halt.

00:29:27.440 And that's actually what it looks like right now.

00:29:30.120 Now, if we put restrictions on China

00:29:34.600 getting semiconductors,

00:29:37.220 what does that do to the risk of war with Taiwan?

00:29:42.580 Does it make it more or less?

00:29:47.440 I feel like they almost have to capture Taiwan

00:29:50.180 to get semiconductors.

00:29:53.060 Am I wrong?

00:29:53.980 So, you know,

00:29:59.360 there are lots of other forces.

00:30:02.820 So I don't, I don't think.

00:30:05.840 Oh.

00:30:06.980 Let me tell you something

00:30:07.980 that the news didn't report on.

00:30:10.800 So this will be,

00:30:11.640 I think this will be the first time you've heard this.

00:30:15.140 Vivek

00:30:15.620 eliminated the possibility

00:30:19.240 of China going to war over Taiwan.

00:30:23.980 Now, when I say eliminated,

00:30:28.540 I don't mean forever.

00:30:30.380 Not forever.

00:30:32.160 Forever is still alive, right?

00:30:34.640 But let me tell you how.

00:30:37.820 Vivek gave an interview

00:30:39.220 in which he said

00:30:40.840 that since we rely on the semiconductors,

00:30:44.760 there is no way that China is going to get Taiwan

00:30:47.880 as long as we rely on their semiconductors.

00:30:51.080 But we're working hard

00:30:52.660 to make this stuff domestically.

00:30:55.080 And Vivek says directly,

00:30:57.100 once we can make this stuff domestically,

00:31:00.280 Taiwan becomes a civil war

00:31:01.980 and not our problem.

00:31:05.160 Do you see it yet?

00:31:07.600 Do you see it?

00:31:09.020 He stopped,

00:31:09.940 he stopped any chance of war with Taiwan.

00:31:13.400 Because what he said was,

00:31:15.060 if you're patient,

00:31:16.660 you can have it.

00:31:17.840 No, he didn't say that.

00:31:22.160 This is me putting my own words on it.

00:31:24.980 But the way China is going to hear it

00:31:26.680 is, wait, wait, wait.

00:31:28.060 Did I hear that right?

00:31:29.360 A major candidate for president

00:31:30.940 who may, in fact, become president

00:31:33.480 because we're over in China

00:31:34.680 and we see that the only guy

00:31:36.440 who could stop him

00:31:37.380 seems to be indicted four times.

00:31:39.520 He's running against a cadaver

00:31:41.120 and DeSantis is falling.

00:31:43.960 Oh shit, we better listen

00:31:45.120 to what he says.

00:31:46.360 Because you know they're listening

00:31:47.280 to the major candidates, right?

00:31:49.260 So imagine you're China.

00:31:51.460 You have a strategic goal

00:31:53.180 that's, you don't care

00:31:54.800 if it takes 100 years

00:31:55.820 or 1,000 years,

00:31:57.320 you're fucking getting Taiwan back.

00:31:59.660 And you know what?

00:32:00.200 That's what I'd do if I were them.

00:32:02.860 If I were China,

00:32:04.360 I'd be saying,

00:32:05.720 I am getting,

00:32:06.380 we are getting Taiwan back.

00:32:08.500 There's no way

00:32:09.460 that the U.S.

00:32:10.900 is going to have this, like,

00:32:12.480 major ally sitting in our harbor

00:32:14.800 forever, right?

00:32:17.440 We get that.

00:32:18.220 We can't do it right away,

00:32:19.260 but we're getting it back.

00:32:20.840 If you tell China,

00:32:22.160 who has, you know,

00:32:22.940 the 1,000-year plan,

00:32:25.180 that maybe if you wait,

00:32:26.660 you know, eight years

00:32:28.180 or something like that,

00:32:30.400 that it'll be much easier

00:32:32.000 for you to do it.

00:32:32.980 In fact, you won't even get

00:32:33.980 much resistance from us.

00:32:35.740 Now, if you were them,

00:32:37.320 would you go soon

00:32:38.320 if you could just wait?

00:32:42.840 You wouldn't.

00:32:44.180 No.

00:32:45.520 China is a rational actor

00:32:47.600 with a really long

00:32:50.000 timeline and patience.

00:32:53.060 Vivek told somebody

00:32:54.240 with good strategic thinking

00:32:56.500 and a long timeline

00:32:57.600 that if you do it

00:32:59.320 in the next eight years,

00:33:00.180 you're fucking crazy.

00:33:01.640 That's crazy.

00:33:03.660 Because we're going to stop you.

00:33:05.100 And it's trouble.

00:33:07.080 And if you think

00:33:07.600 it's not nuclear,

00:33:08.580 better think again.

00:33:09.840 Because those microchips

00:33:11.900 are a basis

00:33:13.720 for our civilization.

00:33:15.660 We're not going

00:33:16.580 to not have them.

00:33:18.020 Period.

00:33:19.700 No war.

00:33:21.660 The odds of war

00:33:22.780 with Taiwan

00:33:23.300 drop to zero

00:33:24.160 as soon as you said that.

00:33:26.040 Am I wrong?

00:33:27.400 And am I the first person

00:33:28.540 who told you this?

00:33:29.240 Now, let me say again

00:33:31.940 that we're seeing

00:33:34.240 candidates

00:33:35.040 accomplish things

00:33:37.000 in the real world

00:33:38.120 like I've never seen before.

00:33:40.860 He said exactly

00:33:42.200 the right thing

00:33:43.060 to stop a war.

00:33:46.220 I mean,

00:33:46.700 a lot of you thought,

00:33:47.440 oh, it's pretty inevitable

00:33:48.300 it's going to happen next year.

00:33:49.840 There's no way

00:33:50.600 it's going to happen next year.

00:33:51.960 There's no way

00:33:53.040 China's going to go

00:33:54.220 when somebody

00:33:55.880 at that level

00:33:56.860 gave a real good argument

00:33:58.680 why waiting eight years

00:34:00.020 is really smart.

00:34:02.080 Really smart.

00:34:03.940 Now, that's a real world effect

00:34:05.940 while he's a candidate.

00:34:08.500 Who else is doing that?

00:34:10.240 RFK Jr.

00:34:11.640 In my opinion,

00:34:13.660 RFK Jr.

00:34:14.580 is, you know,

00:34:15.160 surfacing things

00:34:16.360 about vaccinations

00:34:18.120 and our food

00:34:19.400 and chronic illnesses

00:34:20.700 and the border.

00:34:23.000 The border.

00:34:24.460 I mean,

00:34:24.880 RFK Jr.

00:34:25.680 has done more

00:34:26.840 for our understanding

00:34:28.780 and therefore,

00:34:29.620 I think,

00:34:29.960 an ultimate solution

00:34:30.800 to the border

00:34:31.460 than Trump.

00:34:34.000 Than Trump.

00:34:35.600 RFK Jr.

00:34:36.580 has done more

00:34:37.160 to close the border.

00:34:38.260 We're not there.

00:34:39.260 But he's done more

00:34:40.100 to set the stage

00:34:41.100 than Trump.

00:34:43.120 Trump did a lot of talking.

00:34:45.560 RFK went down there

00:34:46.600 and he dug in

00:34:47.220 and created a movie

00:34:48.320 about it

00:34:48.860 and now he's

00:34:49.320 telling you exactly

00:34:50.780 what the problem is.

00:34:51.660 That's way more productive.

00:34:53.520 Right?

00:34:53.620 So just hold this in mind,

00:34:56.300 the amazingness

00:34:57.200 that's happening

00:34:57.820 right now.

00:34:58.940 The candidates

00:34:59.680 are so fucking strong

00:35:02.580 that they're changing

00:35:04.200 the world

00:35:04.940 as candidates.

00:35:07.560 As candidates.

00:35:09.200 Have you ever seen this?

00:35:10.720 Now,

00:35:11.160 let's talk about

00:35:11.860 another one.

00:35:13.020 Larry Elder

00:35:13.580 was on the

00:35:15.400 breakfast club

00:35:17.080 yesterday

00:35:19.420 or the day before.

00:35:20.520 So the clips

00:35:21.260 are going around.

00:35:21.860 What is Larry Elder

00:35:23.460 running for president for?

00:35:24.980 Is it because he thinks

00:35:25.940 he has a pretty good chance

00:35:26.900 of winning?

00:35:28.320 Well,

00:35:28.980 maybe they all think that

00:35:30.000 under the right circumstances.

00:35:32.300 But Larry Elder

00:35:32.960 has this message

00:35:34.700 that he's had

00:35:35.360 for a long time

00:35:36.420 that the problem

00:35:37.900 with black America

00:35:38.880 is families.

00:35:40.540 Maybe with America

00:35:41.740 in general

00:35:42.200 is families.

00:35:43.660 But a little more acute

00:35:44.980 in the black community.

00:35:46.540 And he's basically

00:35:47.440 hammering that message.

00:35:48.640 So he took that

00:35:49.200 to the breakfast club

00:35:50.240 and made his point.

00:35:52.900 Is Larry Elder

00:35:53.960 producing benefits

00:35:56.140 as a candidate

00:35:57.020 or does he have to wait

00:35:59.340 until he's president

00:36:00.240 which is a long shot?

00:36:01.640 No,

00:36:01.820 he's producing

00:36:02.340 the fact that he went

00:36:04.120 on the breakfast club

00:36:06.020 where they had

00:36:06.480 a different view

00:36:07.180 of what's going on

00:36:08.460 was so productive.

00:36:11.060 I tweeted it

00:36:11.940 and you should

00:36:12.360 absolutely watch it.

00:36:14.120 Like if you want

00:36:14.620 to kind of understand

00:36:15.540 the landscape

00:36:16.980 of the two

00:36:18.040 different opinions

00:36:18.800 we're a great place

00:36:20.620 to see it.

00:36:21.800 Because the breakfast club

00:36:23.480 now give me

00:36:25.140 a fact check on this

00:36:26.120 but one of the things

00:36:27.780 that impresses me

00:36:28.640 about them

00:36:29.180 is that they do seem

00:36:30.460 intellectually

00:36:31.180 very flexible

00:36:32.440 and very well informed.

00:36:35.040 Am I wrong?

00:36:37.440 That they're

00:36:38.200 intellectually flexible

00:36:39.460 and very well informed.

00:36:41.940 So they're really

00:36:42.960 quite a national asset

00:36:44.900 at this point.

00:36:46.200 Now,

00:36:46.560 don't confuse that

00:36:48.480 with agreeing with them.

00:36:49.600 You're not supposed

00:36:50.080 to agree with them.

00:36:51.260 It doesn't work that way.

00:36:52.780 But do they show

00:36:54.540 intellectual flexibility?

00:36:56.740 Do they bring in

00:36:57.640 important topics?

00:36:59.680 And do they

00:37:00.360 bring you maybe

00:37:01.500 to another

00:37:02.040 better understanding

00:37:03.020 because you've seen

00:37:03.820 some...

00:37:04.180 Yeah,

00:37:04.660 I think they do.

00:37:05.760 It's long form

00:37:06.720 and they let people

00:37:07.540 talk it out.

00:37:09.880 It's very good.

00:37:11.900 So there you go.

00:37:12.960 RFK Jr.,

00:37:14.120 Vivek,

00:37:14.820 and Larry Elder

00:37:16.480 killing it

00:37:18.220 as candidates.

00:37:20.380 It's very impressive.

00:37:22.820 All right.

00:37:23.700 You want me to talk

00:37:24.960 about the fact

00:37:25.520 that Biden

00:37:26.300 apparently had

00:37:27.240 a secret name,

00:37:28.480 Robert L. Peters,

00:37:29.780 and there are

00:37:30.860 a bunch of references

00:37:31.960 to it on the laptop

00:37:33.940 and, of course,

00:37:35.460 you might remember

00:37:38.340 if you saw the video

00:37:40.960 saw the video

00:37:41.660 of Tucker talking

00:37:42.500 about it,

00:37:43.660 that his family

00:37:44.420 called him,

00:37:45.480 called somebody

00:37:46.440 Peto Pete.

00:37:48.380 So some people

00:37:49.460 are saying

00:37:50.720 that Robert Peters

00:37:51.820 and Peto Pete

00:37:53.580 might be the same thing

00:37:54.980 and it has something

00:37:55.740 to do with Biden.

00:37:57.700 I'm not comfortable

00:37:58.880 with any of those

00:37:59.680 accusations.

00:38:01.260 I'm just telling you

00:38:02.340 they're rolling around.

00:38:04.200 All right.

00:38:06.300 And I guess

00:38:06.900 Representative Comer

00:38:08.160 has asked for

00:38:09.660 all the unredacted

00:38:11.180 documents that have

00:38:12.200 that fake name

00:38:14.220 in it,

00:38:14.540 Robert Peters.

00:38:15.860 Now,

00:38:17.080 don't you think

00:38:17.880 this is going to get

00:38:18.660 you one step

00:38:19.580 closer,

00:38:21.040 one step closer

00:38:23.540 to unraveling

00:38:24.820 the Biden

00:38:25.520 crime family

00:38:26.880 situation?

00:38:27.200 situation.

00:38:29.480 Now,

00:38:30.580 do you know

00:38:32.760 what this means,

00:38:33.420 though?

00:38:34.420 There's a very

00:38:35.460 good chance

00:38:36.180 that our

00:38:37.100 next election

00:38:38.720 will be a contest

00:38:40.060 between Robert

00:38:41.040 Peters and

00:38:41.980 John Barron.

00:38:44.520 So Robert

00:38:45.600 Peters might be

00:38:46.400 running against

00:38:46.980 John Barron

00:38:47.620 for president.

00:38:50.900 As you remember,

00:38:52.340 Trump was

00:38:53.200 allegedly John

00:38:54.040 Barron.

00:38:54.640 He would call

00:38:55.100 people and say

00:38:56.080 he was somebody

00:38:56.500 else.

00:38:57.200 So let me ask

00:39:00.060 you this.

00:39:02.300 There are quite a

00:39:03.120 few candidates

00:39:03.780 who are running

00:39:04.220 for president.

00:39:05.740 If you were to

00:39:06.660 look at all the

00:39:07.420 other candidates,

00:39:09.060 and by that I

00:39:09.740 mean the ones

00:39:10.480 that the experts

00:39:11.360 think will not

00:39:12.220 be in the final

00:39:12.820 race, because

00:39:14.220 the experts are

00:39:14.940 still saying it's

00:39:15.560 Biden versus

00:39:16.160 Trump, right,

00:39:16.920 based on the

00:39:17.540 polls.

00:39:18.720 How many of

00:39:19.560 all the other

00:39:20.220 candidates also

00:39:22.140 have a second

00:39:22.880 name that they

00:39:23.620 use?

00:39:25.300 I'm thinking

00:39:26.040 it's zero.

00:39:27.200 Do you think

00:39:28.920 Chris Christie

00:39:29.680 is actually

00:39:31.660 George McGee?

00:39:33.580 Maybe, I don't

00:39:34.540 know.

00:39:35.260 Maybe they all,

00:39:36.320 or the other

00:39:37.480 way, maybe they

00:39:38.340 all have secret

00:39:39.400 names.

00:39:40.440 Do any of you

00:39:41.060 have a secret

00:39:41.620 name?

00:39:45.540 All right.

00:39:46.220 Well, speaking of

00:39:49.540 secret names, I

00:39:52.340 have a hypothesis

00:39:54.040 that a candidate's

00:39:56.000 name has more

00:39:57.520 to do with their

00:39:58.360 success than is

00:40:00.080 obvious.

00:40:01.940 Now, and the

00:40:03.200 hypothesis goes

00:40:04.120 like this.

00:40:05.060 The more fun it

00:40:06.280 is to say their

00:40:07.060 name, or the more

00:40:08.080 interesting the name,

00:40:09.140 the more advantage

00:40:10.500 they have.

00:40:11.400 Now, it's not

00:40:11.960 predictive like

00:40:12.780 they'll definitely

00:40:13.360 win, because they

00:40:14.140 have a good

00:40:14.460 name.

00:40:15.220 But Barack

00:40:15.960 Obama was

00:40:16.780 hard not to

00:40:17.380 say.

00:40:18.880 It's almost

00:40:19.540 like playing

00:40:20.560 the drums.

00:40:21.640 Barack Obama.

00:40:23.460 Barack.

00:40:24.000 I mean, it's

00:40:24.360 almost got a

00:40:24.900 percussion to it.

00:40:25.780 It's just like a

00:40:26.800 great thing to

00:40:28.040 say.

00:40:29.420 How about AOC?

00:40:31.660 Right?

00:40:31.980 The fact that she

00:40:33.360 needed the three

00:40:34.320 letters, because her

00:40:36.060 name was sort of

00:40:36.880 long and interesting.

00:40:38.060 Trump himself.

00:40:43.040 Trump himself.

00:40:44.360 Trump is a fun

00:40:45.220 name to say.

00:40:46.840 Right?

00:40:48.260 Here's another

00:40:49.020 name that's fun to

00:40:49.900 say.

00:40:51.640 Vivek Ramaswamy.

00:40:54.260 But it's got one

00:40:55.940 problem that it's

00:40:57.780 hard for your

00:40:59.380 standard American to

00:41:00.700 remember the name

00:41:01.600 and then pronounce

00:41:02.940 it correctly.

00:41:05.060 Vivek.

00:41:05.780 But it's fun to

00:41:06.560 say once you get

00:41:07.320 it, you know, once

00:41:08.460 you're like one of

00:41:09.720 the smart people who

00:41:10.560 knows how to

00:41:11.040 pronounce it, you

00:41:12.060 can act like you're

00:41:12.800 smart in front of

00:41:13.440 your friends.

00:41:14.200 Well, have you

00:41:14.880 heard of Vivek

00:41:16.700 Ramaswamy?

00:41:18.120 You know, if you

00:41:18.580 can pronounce it

00:41:19.720 right, you sound

00:41:20.820 like you're the

00:41:21.300 smart one in the

00:41:22.000 room.

00:41:22.680 Because the other

00:41:23.160 people are going

00:41:23.600 to be, what's

00:41:24.320 that, Vivek

00:41:25.720 Ramaswamy?

00:41:27.320 You know, they're

00:41:27.740 all going to be

00:41:28.120 doing that.

00:41:28.580 You're like, I

00:41:30.780 think you mean

00:41:31.380 Vivek Ramaswamy.

00:41:35.480 So quaint.

00:41:37.320 So you want to

00:41:38.860 be that person.

00:41:39.720 But I only

00:41:41.140 noticed today that

00:41:43.900 Vivek Ramaswamy has

00:41:45.320 interesting initials.

00:41:48.680 VR.

00:41:51.780 Come on.

00:41:53.960 Come on.

00:41:56.840 You tell me that

00:41:58.500 if he, let's say he

00:41:59.980 gets to, you know, a

00:42:01.100 higher level, you

00:42:02.100 know, he's knocking

00:42:02.620 on the door right

00:42:03.360 now.

00:42:03.580 But let's say he

00:42:04.040 gets really into the

00:42:05.520 main conversation,

00:42:06.520 which I think he's

00:42:07.440 going to do, by

00:42:08.060 the way.

00:42:10.780 People are going to

00:42:11.520 call him VR.

00:42:13.780 You tell me that's

00:42:14.780 not fun to say, VR?

00:42:17.260 Oh, it is.

00:42:19.040 Oh, it is.

00:42:20.180 It's V for victory.

00:42:22.060 Yeah.

00:42:22.900 And I don't know.

00:42:25.280 This names that are

00:42:26.760 fun to say thing is

00:42:28.060 pretty powerful.

00:42:28.700 Well, all right.

00:42:31.380 I would also say, have

00:42:33.180 you noticed that

00:42:34.380 Vivek has been on

00:42:36.460 Tucker's show,

00:42:38.400 Jordan Peterson's

00:42:39.700 show, and where

00:42:43.520 else was he?

00:42:45.700 He was on, well,

00:42:47.700 everywhere, basically.

00:42:48.780 John Stossel.

00:42:50.480 And all of them seem

00:42:51.940 to have a positive

00:42:52.700 opinion of him.

00:42:53.960 All right.

00:42:54.120 And then Elon Musk

00:42:55.940 tweeted once or

00:42:57.340 twice yesterday that

00:42:59.360 Vivek is an

00:43:00.220 interesting candidate

00:43:01.360 with potential.

00:43:03.960 So just hold this

00:43:06.560 in your mind.

00:43:07.580 People who are

00:43:08.340 impressed with him

00:43:09.300 and believe he has

00:43:10.240 the, at least has

00:43:11.700 the capabilities of

00:43:12.700 being an impressive

00:43:13.920 president.

00:43:15.500 Tucker, Jordan

00:43:16.960 Peterson, Elon Musk,

00:43:19.920 John Stossel, and me,

00:43:22.800 because I endorse

00:43:24.020 Vivek for president.

00:43:26.640 Now, are you

00:43:28.280 noticing a pattern?

00:43:30.600 You see any pattern?

00:43:33.700 Did you notice that

00:43:34.980 Cernovich has sort of

00:43:37.700 moved away from

00:43:38.540 DeSantis?

00:43:40.680 Do you see what's

00:43:41.740 happening?

00:43:43.760 Yeah.

00:43:45.140 It's Internet Dad

00:43:46.440 time.

00:43:47.640 Internet Dad

00:43:48.300 time.

00:43:49.160 The Internet

00:43:49.700 Dads are tapping

00:43:52.520 you on the

00:43:53.060 shoulder.

00:43:54.360 And it's very

00:43:55.140 subtle so far.

00:43:57.660 It's just that

00:43:58.460 you're going to

00:43:58.840 start noticing

00:43:59.540 that it's the

00:44:01.280 smart people.

00:44:02.420 I hate to say

00:44:03.060 it, but that's

00:44:03.700 just true.

00:44:04.200 It's the smart

00:44:04.720 people.

00:44:05.680 The smart people

00:44:06.620 are noticing.

00:44:08.420 Watch for the

00:44:09.680 people that I

00:44:10.260 call the Internet

00:44:10.980 Dads.

00:44:11.520 And again,

00:44:12.040 they're not

00:44:12.420 women.

00:44:13.180 They're not all

00:44:13.700 men.

00:44:14.260 They could be

00:44:14.720 women.

00:44:15.180 They could be

00:44:15.600 LGBTQ, whatever.

00:44:17.620 It's just the

00:44:18.220 dad vibe.

00:44:19.380 You know,

00:44:19.540 that the

00:44:20.140 person who's

00:44:20.720 just trying to

00:44:21.260 help, not

00:44:22.660 trying to be

00:44:23.380 overly political,

00:44:25.240 just trying to

00:44:25.660 help, and

00:44:27.720 knows how.

00:44:28.980 That's the

00:44:29.440 dad vibe.

00:44:30.500 Just trying to

00:44:31.580 help and also

00:44:32.740 knows how.

00:44:34.280 So they do it.

00:44:36.780 Yeah, I don't

00:44:37.420 know.

00:44:37.640 I'll keep an eye

00:44:38.200 on that.

00:44:38.900 That's a whole

00:44:39.660 lot of talking

00:44:41.200 about and

00:44:41.900 interest and

00:44:42.460 chattering from

00:44:43.120 exactly the right

00:44:43.940 people.

00:44:45.200 And I want to

00:44:45.780 put this in your

00:44:46.860 mind.

00:44:47.640 Put this image in

00:44:48.600 your mind.

00:44:49.940 Imagine a

00:44:50.560 world, and at

00:44:51.440 the moment it's

00:44:52.060 unlikely, based on

00:44:53.320 current polling, but

00:44:54.080 imagine a world in

00:44:55.560 which Vivek ends up

00:44:56.900 in the final contest

00:44:58.060 and he's debating

00:44:59.460 on stage either

00:45:00.680 one, Biden or

00:45:04.060 Kamala Harris.

00:45:05.580 Just put it in

00:45:06.160 your head.

00:45:06.860 Make sure you've

00:45:07.480 watched at least

00:45:08.240 one Vivek long

00:45:10.620 form interview so

00:45:12.340 that you can see

00:45:12.920 what kind of skill

00:45:13.680 he brings, which

00:45:14.360 we've never seen,

00:45:15.100 by the way.

00:45:16.140 You know, as

00:45:16.840 good as Trump is,

00:45:17.900 Trump's sort of

00:45:19.160 a bully

00:45:21.240 debater, but

00:45:22.780 nobody does bully

00:45:23.700 debating, you

00:45:24.560 know, energy

00:45:25.140 debating better

00:45:25.800 than he does.

00:45:26.500 He's just the

00:45:27.040 best at the

00:45:28.140 energy, you

00:45:29.680 know, control

00:45:30.360 alpha dominant

00:45:32.060 kind of thing.

00:45:33.740 But Vivek, we've

00:45:35.140 never seen.

00:45:36.440 We've never seen

00:45:37.200 this.

00:45:38.600 He has a

00:45:39.620 control of the

00:45:40.340 topics and a

00:45:41.700 facility with

00:45:42.720 words.

00:45:44.320 We've never seen

00:45:45.320 this.

00:45:46.240 And it would be

00:45:46.740 interesting to see

00:45:47.480 how far this

00:45:48.060 could go.

00:45:50.660 But I think

00:45:51.320 you're going to

00:45:51.620 see it.

00:45:52.880 He's rising.

00:45:55.380 I think that if

00:45:56.540 you saw an

00:45:57.000 interview, or if

00:45:57.840 you saw a

00:45:58.480 debate, if you

00:45:59.740 imagine it

00:46:00.260 happened, between

00:46:01.620 Vivek and Joe

00:46:03.100 Biden, here's my

00:46:04.600 prediction.

00:46:06.560 MSNBC would have

00:46:07.500 to fake a power

00:46:08.500 outage.

00:46:11.940 That's a real

00:46:12.700 prediction.

00:46:13.100 in the unlikely

00:46:15.360 event that

00:46:16.300 Vivek and Joe

00:46:17.300 Biden end up in

00:46:18.340 a one-on-one

00:46:19.140 debate, I

00:46:21.120 predict that

00:46:22.080 MSNBC will

00:46:23.220 have a technical

00:46:24.060 problem that

00:46:25.860 they just go

00:46:28.280 off the air.

00:46:31.740 Or there will

00:46:32.780 be no debate.

00:46:33.700 That's a

00:46:34.040 possibility, too.

00:46:35.000 But there's no

00:46:35.660 way.

00:46:36.040 There's no way

00:46:36.760 they're going to

00:46:37.180 put Biden up

00:46:37.780 there with

00:46:38.120 Vivek.

00:46:38.980 They can put

00:46:39.960 Biden up there

00:46:40.560 with Trump.

00:46:41.900 Trump would

00:46:42.360 destroy him.

00:46:43.980 But they might

00:46:44.740 think they have a

00:46:45.360 shot with that.

00:46:46.600 Maybe.

00:46:47.220 It would be wrong,

00:46:47.980 but they might

00:46:48.440 think so.

00:46:49.000 They don't have

00:46:49.460 any shot with

00:46:50.040 Vivek.

00:46:50.960 They have none.

00:46:52.240 That would be a

00:46:53.020 slaughter.

00:46:56.000 So I heard some

00:46:56.960 people say that

00:46:57.800 Trump and Vivek

00:46:59.100 might not get

00:46:59.920 along because

00:47:01.580 they're both

00:47:02.820 strong-willed

00:47:03.620 people.

00:47:06.020 Here's my

00:47:06.680 take, which I

00:47:08.100 feel very

00:47:08.580 confident about,

00:47:09.720 but of course

00:47:10.140 I couldn't

00:47:10.540 know for sure.

00:47:11.360 But I'm very

00:47:11.820 confident about

00:47:12.560 this.

00:47:13.080 This is my

00:47:13.700 read on

00:47:14.400 Trump.

00:47:15.800 He doesn't

00:47:16.680 suffer fools,

00:47:18.660 but if you're

00:47:19.900 smarter than

00:47:20.480 he is, he's

00:47:22.560 all about it.

00:47:24.840 And as

00:47:25.380 smart as

00:47:25.800 Trump is, in

00:47:26.760 his way, I

00:47:27.600 mean, there's

00:47:27.860 nobody like

00:47:28.380 him, Vivek is

00:47:30.180 smarter than

00:47:30.620 him, and he

00:47:31.640 knows it.

00:47:32.440 Trump would

00:47:33.180 know.

00:47:33.660 I know it.

00:47:34.900 Do you know

00:47:35.380 how hard it is

00:47:36.080 for me to say

00:47:36.660 somebody's smarter

00:47:37.540 than me?

00:47:39.660 Come on.

00:47:40.740 That's pretty

00:47:41.280 hard for me to

00:47:41.860 say.

00:47:42.580 But in this

00:47:43.060 case, it's

00:47:43.420 kind of easy

00:47:43.960 because he's

00:47:44.840 actually just

00:47:45.380 smarter than

00:47:45.920 me.

00:47:46.460 He's smarter

00:47:46.900 than you,

00:47:47.320 too.

00:47:48.220 So get over

00:47:49.320 it.

00:47:50.020 But Trump

00:47:50.820 does not have

00:47:51.800 an ego

00:47:52.220 problem, per

00:47:53.220 se, about

00:47:54.580 people who

00:47:55.360 have so much

00:47:55.960 skill that if

00:47:57.460 he were to

00:47:57.820 work with

00:47:58.260 them, the

00:47:58.560 two of them

00:47:58.940 would be

00:47:59.240 stronger than

00:47:59.920 either of

00:48:00.460 them together.

00:48:01.560 So I think

00:48:02.620 you're very

00:48:03.560 misinterpreting

00:48:04.600 Trump's

00:48:05.580 personality if

00:48:07.080 you think he

00:48:07.600 would run

00:48:07.980 away from or

00:48:08.920 have a problem

00:48:09.780 with a person

00:48:11.120 at the highest

00:48:11.740 capability.

00:48:13.280 He has a

00:48:14.080 problem with

00:48:14.760 the General

00:48:16.320 Milley types.

00:48:18.300 You know

00:48:18.460 General Milley?

00:48:20.040 When I watch

00:48:20.920 General Milley on

00:48:21.860 TV, I think to

00:48:22.800 myself, is it

00:48:24.120 just me or does

00:48:25.020 he seem not

00:48:25.600 smart?

00:48:27.300 He just seemed

00:48:29.020 not smart.

00:48:30.340 I mean, I hate

00:48:30.780 to say it.

00:48:31.280 He was smart

00:48:32.060 enough to

00:48:32.420 become a

00:48:32.780 general, so

00:48:33.380 that's pretty

00:48:33.820 good, but

00:48:34.660 not really

00:48:35.380 Trump smart,

00:48:37.700 right?

00:48:38.120 He wasn't

00:48:38.540 Trump smart.

00:48:39.420 He wasn't

00:48:39.840 even Pence

00:48:40.400 smart.

00:48:41.860 And he's

00:48:42.500 definitely not

00:48:42.980 Vivek smart.

00:48:44.500 You can tell.

00:48:46.920 So I think

00:48:47.680 that Trump

00:48:48.160 and somebody

00:48:48.960 with that

00:48:49.360 level of

00:48:49.820 capability,

00:48:50.480 especially

00:48:50.740 someone who

00:48:51.260 has been

00:48:51.540 supportive of

00:48:52.320 Trump in

00:48:53.460 a general

00:48:53.860 sense, in

00:48:54.360 a legal

00:48:54.700 sense, yeah,

00:48:56.400 I think it's

00:48:57.240 closer to they

00:48:58.060 would get along

00:48:58.680 amazingly.

00:49:00.160 But if you

00:49:00.640 say, would

00:49:01.260 there be

00:49:01.560 rumors of

00:49:02.140 them having

00:49:02.540 big fights

00:49:03.220 over topics?

00:49:04.000 Of course.

00:49:05.360 If they

00:49:05.860 worked together

00:49:06.480 in any way

00:49:06.960 in the future,

00:49:07.860 they would

00:49:08.140 have big

00:49:08.540 fights over

00:49:09.100 topics, and

00:49:10.620 then they

00:49:10.940 would get

00:49:11.220 over it, and

00:49:11.700 then they

00:49:12.140 just get

00:49:12.700 on with

00:49:12.960 life.

00:49:13.600 Yeah, of

00:49:13.840 course.

00:49:17.760 Newt Gingrich

00:49:18.840 says he

00:49:19.920 heard, so

00:49:20.780 this is

00:49:21.140 hearsay, which

00:49:22.000 he calls it

00:49:22.540 hearsay, meaning

00:49:23.920 that he heard

00:49:24.400 it from

00:49:24.660 somebody, heard

00:49:25.160 it from

00:49:25.380 somebody, basically,

00:49:26.300 that that

00:49:27.480 funny Willis

00:49:28.580 prosecutor got a

00:49:30.220 call to say

00:49:31.700 that Trump had

00:49:32.620 to be indicted

00:49:33.160 on Monday to

00:49:34.040 cover up the

00:49:34.740 bad news story

00:49:35.840 about Weiss's

00:49:36.920 screw-up.

00:49:38.960 Now, do you

00:49:40.540 think that

00:49:40.900 happened?

00:49:42.180 Do you think

00:49:42.740 somebody in the

00:49:43.960 Democrat power

00:49:45.180 structure said,

00:49:46.520 no, you've got to

00:49:47.100 go on this today,

00:49:48.080 and she pushed

00:49:49.180 back because she

00:49:49.960 wasn't ready, and

00:49:51.140 they said, no,

00:49:51.640 it has to be

00:49:51.980 today because of

00:49:52.680 the news

00:49:53.420 coverage?

00:49:53.780 I'm going to

00:49:56.180 give that a

00:49:57.020 probably, probably,

00:50:01.800 only because it

00:50:02.500 sounds so

00:50:02.920 normal, right?

00:50:04.780 It doesn't

00:50:05.360 sound extraordinary

00:50:06.320 enough where I'd

00:50:07.420 say, that's too

00:50:08.020 on the nose, because

00:50:09.220 it looks to be sort

00:50:10.060 of like normal

00:50:10.580 business, and I

00:50:12.180 don't even think

00:50:12.980 that this is

00:50:13.680 illegal, is it?

00:50:15.640 Would it be

00:50:16.260 illegal to say,

00:50:17.900 you know, you

00:50:18.700 could get two

00:50:19.420 benefits if you

00:50:20.200 do it today, if

00:50:21.580 you wait, you

00:50:22.200 only get one

00:50:22.740 benefit, but

00:50:23.780 you were going

00:50:24.160 to do it

00:50:24.480 anyway?

00:50:25.560 Is that

00:50:25.920 illegal?

00:50:28.640 I mean, doesn't

00:50:29.720 the defendant

00:50:30.260 have a right to

00:50:30.920 a speedy trial?

00:50:32.380 So if the

00:50:33.280 pressure was to

00:50:34.040 make it more

00:50:34.560 speedy, it's

00:50:36.220 going to be

00:50:36.540 hard to say

00:50:37.000 that was

00:50:37.280 illegal.

00:50:38.540 It would be

00:50:39.140 coordinated.

00:50:41.720 Now, the

00:50:44.480 Proud Boys

00:50:45.120 leader, Enrique

00:50:46.720 Tarrio, who

00:50:47.720 was not even

00:50:48.440 at the January

00:50:49.460 6th thing,

00:50:50.800 is, they're

00:50:51.960 trying to

00:50:52.720 put him in

00:50:53.320 jail for 33

00:50:54.060 years.

00:50:55.700 So that's

00:50:56.120 what they're

00:50:56.400 shooting for.

00:50:58.020 33 years in

00:50:59.020 prison.

00:50:59.800 Do you see

00:51:00.420 that to be

00:51:01.860 something about

00:51:02.900 Enrique Tarrio

00:51:03.940 or the Proud

00:51:04.580 Boys?

00:51:05.080 Is that what

00:51:05.500 that story's

00:51:06.040 about?

00:51:06.940 No, it's

00:51:07.460 not.

00:51:07.720 It's about

00:51:08.100 you.

00:51:09.660 It's about

00:51:10.380 scaring you

00:51:11.360 and making

00:51:12.460 sure that

00:51:12.880 Trump looks

00:51:13.320 as bad as

00:51:13.820 possible.

00:51:15.620 To me, it

00:51:16.400 looks like

00:51:16.880 this person

00:51:17.820 is going to

00:51:18.320 be sacrificed.

00:51:19.280 sacrificed in

00:51:21.980 the sense

00:51:22.380 that if

00:51:23.860 they can

00:51:24.220 give this

00:51:25.220 one guy,

00:51:26.120 who would

00:51:26.480 be notable

00:51:27.180 in the

00:51:27.680 story,

00:51:29.200 because

00:51:29.520 everybody's

00:51:29.960 heard of

00:51:30.140 the Proud

00:51:30.440 Boys, so

00:51:30.980 the leader

00:51:31.440 of the

00:51:31.640 Proud

00:51:31.840 Boys is

00:51:32.320 a big

00:51:32.620 part of

00:51:32.820 the story,

00:51:33.960 if they

00:51:34.800 can give

00:51:35.240 this guy

00:51:35.840 33 years,

00:51:37.380 or even

00:51:38.040 working toward

00:51:39.940 giving him

00:51:40.360 33 years,

00:51:41.540 it's going

00:51:42.020 to make

00:51:42.300 whatever

00:51:42.700 Trump is

00:51:43.280 accused of

00:51:43.980 look more

00:51:44.820 serious.

00:51:46.200 Right?

00:51:46.820 To me,

00:51:47.460 that's probably

00:51:47.860 the only

00:51:48.140 reason it's

00:51:48.560 happening.

00:51:50.020 I mean,

00:51:50.460 I could

00:51:50.680 imagine they

00:51:51.180 wouldn't even

00:51:51.540 charge him,

00:51:52.180 you know,

00:51:53.160 if Trump

00:51:53.960 were not

00:51:54.440 part of

00:51:55.000 the story.

00:51:56.200 So, I

00:51:56.840 don't know

00:51:57.080 the details.

00:51:57.940 It could

00:51:58.280 be that

00:51:58.640 there's

00:51:58.900 something

00:51:59.140 more to

00:51:59.640 it, but

00:51:59.940 if he

00:52:00.200 wasn't

00:52:00.560 there,

00:52:02.240 and all

00:52:02.700 he was

00:52:03.000 trying to

00:52:03.380 do is

00:52:04.140 delay the

00:52:05.600 count so

00:52:06.580 they could

00:52:06.860 make sure

00:52:07.220 that they

00:52:07.520 had audited

00:52:07.960 it,

00:52:09.100 33 years

00:52:10.540 for that?

00:52:11.760 That's a

00:52:12.300 lot like

00:52:12.720 33 years

00:52:13.620 for free

00:52:14.120 speech.

00:52:15.460 I mean,

00:52:15.760 it's close

00:52:16.160 to it.

00:52:17.040 So, I'm

00:52:17.520 not

00:52:17.680 comfortable

00:52:18.020 with it.

00:52:18.880 Don't

00:52:19.100 like it.

00:52:22.500 All right.

00:52:24.740 Yeah.

00:52:26.480 You know,

00:52:27.140 there was a

00:52:27.640 time,

00:52:28.840 not too

00:52:29.580 long ago,

00:52:30.160 let's say

00:52:30.460 10 years

00:52:30.920 ago,

00:52:31.340 if I saw

00:52:32.060 a story

00:52:32.580 about a

00:52:33.280 guy who

00:52:34.020 was maybe

00:52:34.440 going to

00:52:34.720 get 33

00:52:35.340 years in

00:52:35.980 prison,

00:52:37.260 and it was

00:52:37.540 a big

00:52:37.940 public story,

00:52:40.080 and they'd

00:52:40.740 been investigating

00:52:41.600 it for a

00:52:42.120 long time,

00:52:42.780 I would

00:52:43.820 assume that

00:52:44.980 the prosecutors

00:52:45.740 have the

00:52:46.280 goods,

00:52:47.760 that in

00:52:48.600 all likelihood,

00:52:49.440 you know,

00:52:49.800 innocence will

00:52:50.400 prove it

00:52:50.740 guilty.

00:52:51.480 But 10

00:52:51.940 years ago,

00:52:52.440 I would have

00:52:52.700 said,

00:52:52.940 well,

00:52:53.160 almost certainly

00:52:53.900 guilty.

00:52:54.840 I mean,

00:52:55.640 really,

00:52:56.120 they've looked

00:52:56.560 into it

00:52:56.920 already.

00:52:57.900 But in

00:52:58.740 2023,

00:52:59.980 I don't

00:53:00.300 think that

00:53:00.660 at all.

00:53:02.060 In 2023,

00:53:03.200 I think it's

00:53:03.860 unlikely they

00:53:04.600 have the

00:53:04.880 goods.

00:53:05.940 I think it's

00:53:06.540 just political.

00:53:07.940 What do you

00:53:08.320 think?

00:53:08.560 Does it

00:53:09.460 look like

00:53:10.000 justice or

00:53:11.560 just politics

00:53:12.140 to you?

00:53:12.900 To me,

00:53:13.260 it looks like

00:53:13.700 dirty politics

00:53:14.540 and nothing

00:53:15.140 else.

00:53:16.360 Now,

00:53:16.760 that doesn't

00:53:17.360 mean I'm

00:53:17.700 right.

00:53:18.680 I'm talking

00:53:19.120 about

00:53:19.360 assumptions.

00:53:20.700 My assumption

00:53:21.360 10 years ago,

00:53:22.620 probably guilty

00:53:23.300 if they're

00:53:24.300 making a big

00:53:24.820 deal about it.

00:53:25.520 It's their

00:53:25.820 job to find

00:53:26.380 out who's

00:53:26.740 guilty.

00:53:27.700 Why wouldn't

00:53:28.100 it be?

00:53:29.560 2023,

00:53:30.520 probably not.

00:53:31.220 Probably not

00:53:31.740 true.

00:53:33.160 So,

00:53:33.800 that's just

00:53:34.680 the assumptions.

00:53:35.920 All right.

00:53:37.240 In my

00:53:37.880 effort to

00:53:38.380 not be

00:53:38.800 demonetized,

00:53:40.360 I'm going

00:53:40.980 to talk

00:53:41.280 about a

00:53:41.620 topic using

00:53:42.620 code.

00:53:44.240 Are you

00:53:44.520 ready?

00:53:44.800 You'll have

00:53:45.040 to pay

00:53:45.240 attention a

00:53:45.720 little extra.

00:53:47.080 All right.

00:53:47.300 So,

00:53:47.460 I'm going

00:53:47.620 to talk

00:53:47.860 about an

00:53:48.220 event that

00:53:48.760 happened one

00:53:49.320 year after

00:53:49.780 2019 and

00:53:52.340 one month

00:53:52.880 before February

00:53:54.080 6th.

00:53:56.060 You remember

00:53:56.900 that,

00:53:57.160 right?

00:53:58.160 And it

00:53:59.340 was after an

00:54:00.180 election between

00:54:00.920 these two

00:54:01.600 fellows,

00:54:02.260 Robert Peters

00:54:03.980 and John

00:54:04.580 Barron.

00:54:05.540 So,

00:54:06.060 they had an

00:54:06.400 election back

00:54:07.040 in 2019.

00:54:07.880 plus one.

00:54:09.300 And then

00:54:10.500 some protests

00:54:11.600 happened one

00:54:12.580 month before

00:54:13.140 February 6th.

00:54:16.240 And there's

00:54:18.660 some news

00:54:19.220 about this.

00:54:19.720 There's a

00:54:20.240 media group

00:54:21.040 whose

00:54:23.220 initials are

00:54:25.260 really the

00:54:25.660 same initials

00:54:26.320 as,

00:54:26.720 oh my

00:54:26.920 God.

00:54:28.520 Oh my

00:54:29.000 God.

00:54:29.640 Yeah.

00:54:30.100 There's a

00:54:30.540 media group

00:54:31.080 that does

00:54:31.640 undercover

00:54:32.020 videos.

00:54:33.060 Same

00:54:33.360 initials

00:54:33.900 as,

00:54:34.260 oh my

00:54:34.560 God.

00:54:35.540 And they've

00:54:36.260 got this

00:54:36.660 undercover

00:54:37.060 video that

00:54:39.940 suggest that

00:54:42.440 there was

00:54:42.900 some kind

00:54:43.440 of impropriety

00:54:44.380 with 7,000

00:54:46.720 pieces of

00:54:47.300 paper.

00:54:48.680 These 7,000

00:54:49.680 pieces of

00:54:50.160 paper,

00:54:50.460 they had

00:54:50.700 an official

00:54:51.360 use.

00:54:52.240 They were

00:54:52.440 used for

00:54:53.120 something

00:54:53.540 regarding that

00:54:55.480 event between

00:54:56.280 Robert Peters

00:54:57.000 and John

00:54:57.460 Barron.

00:54:58.400 There were

00:54:58.800 pieces of

00:54:59.260 paper that

00:54:59.780 would be put

00:55:00.280 into machines.

00:55:00.940 You don't need

00:55:01.580 to know why.

00:55:02.440 They're just

00:55:02.800 pieces of paper

00:55:03.380 going into

00:55:03.760 machines.

00:55:04.520 But there

00:55:04.760 was a

00:55:05.220 report that

00:55:06.980 there's this

00:55:07.480 one person

00:55:08.100 who can't

00:55:08.760 be found

00:55:09.160 now.

00:55:09.540 Oh,

00:55:09.760 surprise.

00:55:10.700 Can't be

00:55:11.120 found now.

00:55:12.920 Who

00:55:13.440 allegedly

00:55:14.540 admitted to

00:55:15.780 putting 7,000

00:55:18.300 of these

00:55:18.700 pieces of

00:55:19.260 papers into

00:55:19.960 a box on

00:55:20.840 the street

00:55:21.320 that had

00:55:22.200 something to

00:55:22.660 do with

00:55:22.960 an event

00:55:23.380 between

00:55:23.720 Robert Peters

00:55:24.380 and John

00:55:24.840 Barron.

00:55:26.120 And according

00:55:28.220 to this

00:55:28.720 group that

00:55:29.740 has a name

00:55:30.460 that has

00:55:31.040 the same

00:55:31.320 initials as

00:55:32.460 Oh My God,

00:55:34.420 this is all

00:55:35.880 pretty well

00:55:36.400 documented.

00:55:38.840 And the

00:55:40.540 problem here

00:55:41.240 is this feels

00:55:42.140 too much like

00:55:42.900 UFOs.

00:55:45.080 Have you

00:55:45.420 noticed that

00:55:45.860 the UFOs

00:55:46.700 always have

00:55:47.520 the unclear

00:55:48.200 photographs and

00:55:49.640 the person who

00:55:50.260 talked to the

00:55:50.760 person?

00:55:52.260 And you can

00:55:52.700 never get beyond

00:55:53.320 that barrier

00:55:53.860 of blurry

00:55:55.200 photographs and

00:55:56.100 people who

00:55:56.660 talked to

00:55:57.000 other people.

00:55:58.660 And with

00:55:59.360 this one,

00:56:00.120 we don't have

00:56:01.120 the person who

00:56:02.040 was alleged to

00:56:02.740 do it,

00:56:03.820 and I have

00:56:04.240 not heard from

00:56:04.900 the police

00:56:05.440 officer.

00:56:06.320 I'm hearing

00:56:06.960 from people

00:56:07.640 who talk to

00:56:08.140 people.

00:56:10.000 I don't

00:56:10.680 know.

00:56:11.520 Maybe.

00:56:12.400 Maybe.

00:56:13.320 So if you

00:56:13.960 said to me,

00:56:14.540 Scott,

00:56:15.880 is the quality

00:56:16.740 of this

00:56:17.140 evidence

00:56:17.880 sufficient to

00:56:19.320 convince you

00:56:19.920 that there

00:56:20.840 was serious

00:56:21.640 impropriety in

00:56:23.280 the year

00:56:23.680 2019 plus

00:56:24.740 one between

00:56:25.320 that competition

00:56:26.340 between Robert

00:56:26.980 Peters and

00:56:27.420 John Barrett.

00:56:28.360 And I would

00:56:28.900 have said to

00:56:29.260 you,

00:56:29.680 honestly,

00:56:30.160 I haven't

00:56:30.520 seen it.

00:56:32.640 2,000 mules

00:56:33.880 was debunked

00:56:36.020 in the sense

00:56:38.580 that there was

00:56:39.040 no video

00:56:40.140 support,

00:56:40.920 and you

00:56:41.120 imagined there

00:56:41.660 would have

00:56:41.940 been.

00:56:43.120 So not

00:56:44.420 debunked in

00:56:45.780 terms of

00:56:46.260 falsified,

00:56:47.340 but debunked

00:56:48.200 in terms of

00:56:48.780 the obvious

00:56:49.520 thing you

00:56:49.960 would look

00:56:50.360 for to

00:56:50.740 confirm it

00:56:51.300 wasn't

00:56:51.620 there,

00:56:52.060 video

00:56:52.560 somewhere.

00:56:53.540 At least

00:56:53.940 one video

00:56:54.580 or one

00:56:55.300 witness or

00:56:56.740 one confession

00:56:57.580 or something

00:56:58.260 like that.

00:56:59.280 So we

00:56:59.620 didn't have

00:56:59.900 that.

00:57:02.640 So I'm

00:57:03.500 of two

00:57:03.840 minds,

00:57:04.440 and it

00:57:04.680 goes like

00:57:05.040 this.

00:57:06.840 Number one

00:57:07.440 mind,

00:57:08.580 I need

00:57:09.040 some evidence.

00:57:10.800 Now,

00:57:11.140 I know

00:57:11.360 there's

00:57:11.560 evidence,

00:57:12.300 but you

00:57:12.620 need a

00:57:13.540 court or

00:57:14.300 some follow-up

00:57:15.280 to find out

00:57:16.080 that the

00:57:16.340 evidence means

00:57:17.000 something,

00:57:17.500 not just

00:57:18.040 evidence.

00:57:18.720 Evidence

00:57:19.320 is kind

00:57:19.700 of

00:57:19.780 meaningless

00:57:20.100 until

00:57:20.920 you've

00:57:21.180 confirmed

00:57:21.480 it.

00:57:24.660 So on

00:57:25.260 one hand,

00:57:25.960 the rational

00:57:26.560 part of

00:57:27.000 me says,

00:57:28.160 you know,

00:57:28.880 I don't

00:57:29.500 see the

00:57:29.880 evidence,

00:57:30.540 and people

00:57:30.880 have been

00:57:31.140 looking pretty

00:57:31.660 hard.

00:57:32.300 I've seen

00:57:32.680 claims,

00:57:33.480 but they're

00:57:33.800 all kind

00:57:34.100 of UFO

00:57:34.720 quality

00:57:35.220 claims.

00:57:36.840 So under

00:57:37.820 normal

00:57:38.260 circumstances,

00:57:39.400 if that

00:57:39.780 were the

00:57:40.080 only decision

00:57:40.860 I were

00:57:41.160 making,

00:57:41.600 I'd say,

00:57:41.940 you know,

00:57:42.240 I'm going

00:57:42.520 to bet

00:57:42.860 against

00:57:43.440 finding any

00:57:44.960 problems

00:57:45.400 there.

00:57:46.520 Finding.

00:57:47.380 That's

00:57:47.660 different

00:57:48.000 discussion

00:57:49.020 than there

00:57:50.620 are or

00:57:51.200 are not

00:57:51.460 problems,

00:57:52.120 just finding.

00:57:54.380 But have

00:57:55.820 you noticed,

00:57:56.500 or have

00:57:56.880 I mentioned,

00:57:57.540 or have

00:57:57.860 you been

00:57:58.160 here when

00:57:58.500 I mentioned,

00:57:59.140 and Tucker

00:57:59.660 Carlson has

00:58:00.300 said it a

00:58:00.620 lot as

00:58:00.960 well,

00:58:01.520 that the

00:58:02.120 Democrats

00:58:02.500 always blame

00:58:03.500 you for

00:58:03.900 what they

00:58:04.320 do.

00:58:05.980 And every

00:58:06.720 time it

00:58:07.080 happened,

00:58:07.780 I would

00:58:08.100 say,

00:58:08.520 just a

00:58:09.080 coincidence,

00:58:09.840 you're just

00:58:11.160 shaping the

00:58:11.780 evidence to

00:58:12.520 fit your

00:58:12.940 narrative.

00:58:13.880 It's like,

00:58:14.320 okay,

00:58:14.740 confirmation

00:58:15.120 bias.

00:58:15.680 It's not,

00:58:16.900 they're not

00:58:17.460 just

00:58:17.760 literally

00:58:18.360 blaming you

00:58:19.140 of what

00:58:19.460 they're

00:58:19.620 doing.

00:58:20.120 That would

00:58:20.460 be stupid.

00:58:22.160 And then

00:58:22.700 you see

00:58:23.020 one evidence

00:58:24.460 after another.

00:58:25.700 Now,

00:58:26.040 even if you

00:58:26.720 don't believe

00:58:27.500 that they're

00:58:28.480 intentionally

00:58:29.140 blaming you

00:58:29.900 for what

00:58:30.240 they're doing,

00:58:31.360 how do you

00:58:31.960 ignore the

00:58:32.460 pattern?

00:58:34.380 I mean,

00:58:34.660 the pattern

00:58:35.080 is very

00:58:35.700 well established.

00:58:37.300 They do

00:58:38.080 seem to be

00:58:38.860 blaming the

00:58:39.420 Republicans

00:58:39.860 of the

00:58:40.320 things they

00:58:41.400 are later

00:58:41.840 confirmed to

00:58:42.540 have done

00:58:42.860 themselves.

00:58:43.340 Now,

00:58:45.600 fast forward

00:58:46.440 to the

00:58:46.760 present.

00:58:49.980 A guy

00:58:50.760 named

00:58:51.200 John

00:58:51.820 Barron

00:58:52.240 is being

00:58:53.780 indicted

00:58:54.260 on

00:58:54.820 RICO

00:58:55.320 charges,

00:58:56.740 meaning that

00:58:57.560 he didn't

00:58:58.180 just try to

00:58:59.000 do something,

00:58:59.640 they say,

00:59:00.420 but rather

00:59:01.060 it was part

00:59:01.600 of an

00:59:01.900 enterprise

00:59:02.320 of people

00:59:03.040 conspiring

00:59:03.780 to do

00:59:04.140 something.

00:59:04.500 So they

00:59:08.360 always

00:59:09.000 accuse you

00:59:10.180 of what

00:59:10.460 they're

00:59:10.600 doing,

00:59:11.780 and they

00:59:12.680 just accuse

00:59:13.320 this poor

00:59:13.820 John Barron

00:59:14.520 fellow,

00:59:14.940 whoever he

00:59:15.420 is,

00:59:16.980 of a

00:59:17.640 RICO

00:59:18.080 kind of

00:59:20.080 situation.

00:59:24.040 I'm going

00:59:24.680 to have to

00:59:25.040 go with

00:59:25.320 the obvious.

00:59:26.480 The obvious

00:59:27.400 future is

00:59:29.960 that there's

00:59:30.380 a RICO

00:59:30.780 problem here

00:59:31.620 on the

00:59:32.100 Democrat

00:59:32.420 side,

00:59:33.160 and that

00:59:33.880 they conspire

00:59:34.660 to make

00:59:36.220 the events

00:59:36.840 of 2019

00:59:37.720 plus one

00:59:38.820 come out

00:59:39.900 the way

00:59:40.220 they wanted.

00:59:43.180 So I

00:59:44.040 don't see

00:59:44.360 the evidence,

00:59:45.520 but I

00:59:45.940 think it's

00:59:46.280 largely

00:59:46.700 guaranteed.

00:59:49.400 So am

00:59:50.440 I allowed

00:59:50.820 to say

00:59:51.160 in public

00:59:51.560 I have

00:59:51.980 zero

00:59:52.280 evidence,

00:59:53.580 but given

00:59:54.400 the larger

00:59:55.200 situation,

00:59:56.640 and that

00:59:57.060 includes the

00:59:57.740 fact that

00:59:58.740 in all of

00:59:59.280 human history

00:59:59.920 there's never

01:00:01.000 been a

01:00:01.460 complicated

01:00:02.120 high-stakes

01:00:03.120 system

01:00:03.720 that is

01:00:04.800 not fully

01:00:05.580 transparent,

01:00:07.300 and there

01:00:07.600 are lots

01:00:07.900 of people

01:00:08.200 involved

01:00:08.620 who have

01:00:08.900 high interest

01:00:09.560 in distorting

01:00:11.180 the results,

01:00:12.120 that has

01:00:13.000 never existed

01:00:13.780 in human

01:00:14.440 civilization

01:00:15.100 without becoming

01:00:16.660 corrupt over

01:00:17.280 time.

01:00:19.060 Never.

01:00:20.160 There's not

01:00:20.640 any example

01:00:21.240 of it ever.

01:00:22.060 The church.

01:00:23.440 Yeah, you

01:00:23.840 can try pretty

01:00:24.440 hard to give

01:00:24.940 me a

01:00:25.360 counter-example.

01:00:26.400 How about

01:00:26.760 the finance

01:00:28.380 world?

01:00:30.620 All totally

01:00:31.420 straight,

01:00:31.940 right?

01:00:32.120 No.

01:00:33.580 No.

01:00:33.980 Whenever you've

01:00:35.560 got something

01:00:36.060 complicated,

01:00:37.400 high value,

01:00:38.660 and lots

01:00:39.160 of people,

01:00:40.060 it's always

01:00:40.740 corrupt.

01:00:41.440 How about

01:00:41.820 the crypto

01:00:42.760 world?

01:00:44.200 All good,

01:00:44.980 right?

01:00:45.680 No.

01:00:46.760 It's just

01:00:47.240 full of

01:00:47.580 scams.

01:00:49.200 But we

01:00:49.960 have been

01:00:50.300 told by

01:00:51.700 some

01:00:52.800 entity

01:00:54.480 that you

01:00:55.900 can imagine

01:00:56.460 is coordinated

01:00:57.380 in a

01:00:58.220 RICO

01:00:58.820 kind of

01:00:59.480 a way.

01:01:00.740 We're

01:01:01.260 told that

01:01:01.760 all 50

01:01:02.420 states

01:01:02.840 were the

01:01:03.240 only

01:01:03.520 exceptions

01:01:04.000 to the

01:01:05.020 thing

01:01:05.240 that is

01:01:05.580 an

01:01:05.800 unbroken

01:01:06.400 trend

01:01:07.660 in human

01:01:08.640 civilization.

01:01:09.900 That wherever

01:01:10.600 there can be

01:01:11.340 fraud,

01:01:11.740 there is.

01:01:13.240 Wherever

01:01:13.640 there can be.

01:01:15.000 And this

01:01:15.420 is the

01:01:15.720 very situation

01:01:16.520 where it

01:01:17.140 most can be.

01:01:18.820 Now,

01:01:19.120 when you

01:01:19.340 say to me,

01:01:19.800 Scott,

01:01:20.160 Scott,

01:01:20.420 Scott,

01:01:20.640 they audit

01:01:21.080 this.

01:01:21.820 Really?

01:01:22.880 Show me

01:01:23.540 the audit

01:01:24.020 where they

01:01:24.820 found out

01:01:25.520 the woman

01:01:26.260 allegedly

01:01:28.420 who threw

01:01:29.760 away.

01:01:30.220 I'm just

01:01:30.560 making this

01:01:31.020 up.

01:01:31.220 This is

01:01:31.480 not an

01:01:31.760 actual

01:01:31.960 claim.

01:01:32.760 Show me

01:01:33.440 how you

01:01:34.300 audited

01:01:34.860 the person

01:01:36.040 who collected

01:01:36.660 a bunch

01:01:37.100 of ballots

01:01:37.680 from some

01:01:38.420 place they

01:01:38.860 thought would

01:01:39.300 go one

01:01:39.700 way and

01:01:40.680 then just

01:01:41.040 threw them

01:01:41.460 away instead

01:01:42.180 of delivering

01:01:42.700 them to

01:01:43.120 the Dropbox.

01:01:44.620 Which part

01:01:45.280 of the audit

01:01:45.680 picked that

01:01:46.260 up?

01:01:47.560 Which part

01:01:48.240 of the audit

01:01:48.600 picked up

01:01:49.240 allegedly

01:01:50.740 anybody who

01:01:52.400 coronated a

01:01:53.320 lot of

01:01:53.560 people and

01:01:54.280 brought their

01:01:54.820 ballots to

01:01:55.400 one place

01:01:56.000 and maybe

01:01:56.660 they shouldn't

01:01:57.320 have been

01:01:57.600 voting.

01:01:58.900 How did

01:01:59.380 they audit

01:01:59.740 that?

01:02:00.880 You can't

01:02:01.260 audit that.

01:02:02.620 That's not

01:02:03.060 even subject

01:02:03.600 to audit.

01:02:04.400 If you had

01:02:05.320 direct evidence

01:02:06.760 of it,

01:02:07.580 somebody caught

01:02:08.320 it on tape

01:02:08.860 or there's

01:02:09.280 a confession,

01:02:10.220 well then you

01:02:10.680 could make

01:02:11.000 something of

01:02:11.500 it.

01:02:12.000 But you

01:02:12.380 can't audit

01:02:13.200 the thing

01:02:13.720 you didn't

01:02:14.080 see.

01:02:15.980 Everything

01:02:16.460 that happens

01:02:17.160 before the

01:02:18.080 thing gets

01:02:18.640 in the

01:02:18.900 ballot box,

01:02:20.320 all of

01:02:20.880 that's

01:02:21.100 invisible.

01:02:22.540 And

01:02:22.620 apparently

01:02:22.940 that's

01:02:23.260 where the

01:02:24.680 most likely

01:02:25.580 place that

01:02:26.260 fraud would

01:02:26.700 happen.

01:02:28.000 Well,

01:02:28.280 there's two

01:02:28.520 places.

01:02:29.340 One would

01:02:29.820 be if some

01:02:30.420 kind of

01:02:30.700 hacker

01:02:31.080 situation got

01:02:32.240 involved,

01:02:32.760 and I see

01:02:33.260 no evidence

01:02:33.780 of that.

01:02:34.880 But it

01:02:36.120 would be the

01:02:36.560 thing that

01:02:37.200 would be,

01:02:38.120 at least in

01:02:38.640 theory,

01:02:39.040 hard to

01:02:39.400 find.

01:02:40.560 Do we

01:02:41.280 audit the

01:02:41.900 code of

01:02:43.220 the machines?

01:02:43.960 I don't

01:02:44.280 think so.

01:02:45.660 That's not a

01:02:46.240 thing.

01:02:47.500 Because it's

01:02:48.160 proprietary.

01:02:48.800 You can't

01:02:49.100 audit their

01:02:49.480 code.

01:02:50.460 So if you

01:02:50.920 can't look at

01:02:51.380 the code,

01:02:52.500 and you

01:02:52.780 can't look at

01:02:53.400 anything that

01:02:54.000 happens before

01:02:54.800 the actual

01:02:55.400 whatever is

01:02:56.480 stuck in the

01:02:57.160 whatever box,

01:02:58.720 how do you

01:02:59.340 know anything

01:02:59.700 happened?

01:03:02.880 All right.

01:03:03.740 So I'm

01:03:04.180 going to go

01:03:04.560 with the

01:03:05.980 fact that

01:03:06.420 they charged

01:03:06.980 Trump,

01:03:08.440 who?

01:03:09.940 John

01:03:10.360 Barron.

01:03:11.120 They charged

01:03:11.980 John Barron

01:03:12.540 with RICO

01:03:13.280 is, in my

01:03:14.920 opinion, a

01:03:16.260 guarantee that

01:03:17.040 they are part

01:03:17.520 of a conspiracy

01:03:18.360 that would

01:03:19.220 be subject

01:03:20.140 to RICO

01:03:20.640 if we

01:03:21.260 had the

01:03:21.560 evidence.

01:03:23.680 What do

01:03:24.220 you say?

01:03:25.360 You don't

01:03:25.860 think the

01:03:26.280 media, the

01:03:26.880 intelligence

01:03:27.280 organizations,

01:03:28.260 and the

01:03:28.500 Democrats

01:03:28.940 colluded

01:03:29.500 toward a

01:03:30.680 common

01:03:31.140 illegal

01:03:31.760 goal?

01:03:33.260 Of course

01:03:33.680 they did.

01:03:35.680 It seems

01:03:36.440 kind of

01:03:36.780 obvious.

01:03:38.240 But, you

01:03:39.060 know, again,

01:03:39.580 I'm only

01:03:39.980 talking about

01:03:40.500 2019 plus

01:03:41.480 one, so

01:03:42.160 can't be

01:03:43.120 demonetized

01:03:43.800 about that.

01:03:45.660 We'll see.

01:03:46.400 So, there's

01:03:47.600 a Washington

01:03:48.060 Post story

01:03:48.680 that says,

01:03:51.880 blah, blah,

01:03:52.640 Ukraine's

01:03:53.160 having trouble

01:03:53.700 with their

01:03:54.320 counteroffensive.

01:03:56.980 When you

01:03:57.700 read the

01:03:58.040 Washington

01:03:58.420 Post, the

01:04:00.600 least credible

01:04:01.480 entity in

01:04:03.420 news, and

01:04:07.140 you know

01:04:07.420 they're reporting

01:04:07.960 about something

01:04:08.560 that they

01:04:09.040 couldn't

01:04:09.280 possibly know

01:04:09.920 anything about,

01:04:11.140 which is,

01:04:12.200 how are

01:04:12.600 things going

01:04:13.100 on the

01:04:13.420 ground in

01:04:14.540 Ukraine?

01:04:15.200 Do you

01:04:15.500 think they

01:04:15.780 have any

01:04:16.140 sources that

01:04:16.760 are telling

01:04:17.060 them useful

01:04:17.860 information?

01:04:20.780 So, this

01:04:21.500 story is not

01:04:22.040 about Ukraine,

01:04:22.960 even though

01:04:23.460 they have a

01:04:24.540 story, Washington

01:04:25.260 Post has a

01:04:25.760 story about it.

01:04:26.440 The story is,

01:04:27.620 I laugh when

01:04:28.400 people ask me

01:04:29.160 how bad I

01:04:29.700 feel about

01:04:30.100 being cancelled

01:04:30.760 in newspapers.

01:04:32.900 I actually

01:04:33.740 took money

01:04:34.340 from the

01:04:34.720 Washington

01:04:35.040 Post when

01:04:36.440 they were

01:04:36.720 running my

01:04:37.160 comic.

01:04:38.500 I always

01:04:39.360 felt dirty

01:04:39.980 about that,

01:04:41.180 honestly.

01:04:42.120 I felt filthy

01:04:42.980 that I was

01:04:43.920 taking money

01:04:44.500 from the

01:04:45.060 most corrupt

01:04:45.840 industry and

01:04:47.560 the most

01:04:47.960 corrupt entity

01:04:49.180 within the

01:04:49.660 most corrupt

01:04:50.180 industry,

01:04:50.840 the news.

01:04:52.100 I hated

01:04:52.940 that.

01:04:54.120 The fact

01:04:54.700 that I

01:04:55.020 don't have

01:04:55.520 to say I

01:04:56.060 work for

01:04:56.660 the Washington

01:04:57.160 Post,

01:04:57.680 indirectly

01:04:58.340 through a

01:04:58.820 comic strip,

01:04:59.680 is really

01:05:00.740 freeing.

01:05:01.840 I like how

01:05:02.620 that feels.

01:05:04.160 I like their

01:05:04.840 money.

01:05:05.620 Their money

01:05:06.000 was good,

01:05:07.200 but I'll

01:05:09.380 probably still

01:05:09.920 eat.

01:05:10.160 Well,

01:05:12.720 anyway,

01:05:13.180 I don't

01:05:13.460 know what's

01:05:13.760 happening in

01:05:14.200 Ukraine,

01:05:14.660 but neither

01:05:15.140 do they.

01:05:15.840 That's the

01:05:16.340 story on

01:05:16.800 Ukraine.

01:05:18.720 Did I

01:05:19.300 know Gary

01:05:19.720 Larson?

01:05:20.260 No,

01:05:20.540 not personally.

01:05:22.700 Obviously,

01:05:23.340 we know the

01:05:23.800 same people

01:05:24.240 in common.

01:05:26.220 I feel like

01:05:26.800 I forgot a

01:05:27.900 story here.

01:05:28.600 What the heck

01:05:28.980 was it?

01:05:30.440 Probably not.

01:05:32.280 No,

01:05:32.560 looks like I

01:05:32.940 had it all.

01:05:34.180 Bam,

01:05:34.600 I'm good.

01:05:34.940 All right.

01:05:41.240 So,

01:05:41.880 Trump has

01:05:42.300 caused his

01:05:43.000 election

01:05:43.700 claims

01:05:45.340 event,

01:05:47.400 so maybe

01:05:48.520 that tells

01:05:48.980 you he's

01:05:49.300 not so

01:05:49.640 confident.

01:05:52.600 All right,

01:05:53.220 Maui,

01:05:55.120 I don't

01:05:57.520 know what

01:05:57.740 to say

01:05:58.040 about it.

01:05:59.300 I'll tell

01:05:59.860 you what I

01:06:00.200 think to

01:06:02.160 look out

01:06:02.540 for for

01:06:02.980 fake news.

01:06:03.600 there's a

01:06:05.200 story about

01:06:05.680 the water

01:06:06.900 conservation

01:06:07.780 guy or

01:06:08.700 the water

01:06:09.200 manager of

01:06:09.980 Maui,

01:06:10.660 and somehow

01:06:11.460 he didn't

01:06:12.180 allow the

01:06:12.660 water that

01:06:13.300 was sacred

01:06:14.080 to be used

01:06:14.860 for the

01:06:15.220 fire.

01:06:15.780 I don't

01:06:16.240 believe that

01:06:16.740 story,

01:06:17.200 do you?

01:06:19.700 Do you

01:06:20.320 believe that?

01:06:21.440 Do you

01:06:21.920 believe that

01:06:22.400 during the

01:06:23.080 fire,

01:06:24.120 the authority

01:06:24.780 said,

01:06:25.500 we need

01:06:25.800 your water,

01:06:26.380 and that

01:06:26.660 he didn't

01:06:27.120 release it?

01:06:30.660 Some of

01:06:31.300 you believe

01:06:31.700 and some

01:06:32.020 know.

01:06:32.420 I would

01:06:32.780 wait for a

01:06:33.260 confirmation

01:06:33.780 of that

01:06:34.120 one because

01:06:34.560 that has

01:06:34.920 too much

01:06:35.380 on the

01:06:36.220 nose to

01:06:36.680 it.

01:06:38.240 Just as

01:06:39.160 the left

01:06:40.220 wants to

01:06:40.720 say it

01:06:41.000 was climate

01:06:41.480 change,

01:06:42.320 that's a

01:06:42.880 little too

01:06:43.140 on the

01:06:43.420 nose.

01:06:44.240 That's a

01:06:44.780 little

01:06:44.840 convenient,

01:06:45.480 isn't it?

01:06:46.580 The fact

01:06:47.340 that it

01:06:47.820 could be

01:06:48.100 the climate

01:06:48.700 change

01:06:49.180 guy,

01:06:50.480 really,

01:06:50.900 the climate

01:06:51.800 change,

01:06:52.420 the one

01:06:52.800 who's most

01:06:53.280 associated

01:06:53.840 with loving

01:06:54.620 the land,

01:06:55.400 I guess,

01:06:56.440 that he

01:06:56.860 didn't resign.

01:07:00.320 The guy

01:07:00.860 who resigned

01:07:01.380 was the

01:07:01.840 head of

01:07:02.500 the one

01:07:03.280 who didn't

01:07:03.660 sound the

01:07:04.020 alarm.

01:07:05.360 That's a

01:07:05.820 different guy.

01:07:08.220 Now,

01:07:08.680 the guy

01:07:08.900 who didn't

01:07:09.260 sound the

01:07:09.640 alarm

01:07:10.000 actually had

01:07:10.860 a reason,

01:07:11.620 which was

01:07:12.040 the guidelines

01:07:14.620 said,

01:07:15.400 don't use it

01:07:16.420 for a fire.

01:07:18.740 I mean,

01:07:19.140 effectively,

01:07:19.720 he said,

01:07:20.040 use it for

01:07:20.520 just this.

01:07:21.540 And I

01:07:21.880 think,

01:07:22.640 and his

01:07:23.280 concern was

01:07:24.140 that people

01:07:24.700 would,

01:07:25.520 if they hear

01:07:26.160 the tsunami

01:07:26.820 thing,

01:07:27.220 they would

01:07:27.420 head up

01:07:28.040 uphill,

01:07:31.000 and uphill

01:07:31.800 is where

01:07:32.160 the fire

01:07:32.520 was.

01:07:34.060 However,

01:07:34.780 as others

01:07:35.360 have pointed

01:07:35.800 out,

01:07:37.060 who sees

01:07:37.740 a fire

01:07:38.220 and runs

01:07:38.740 toward it?

01:07:40.880 And wouldn't

01:07:41.900 all the smoke

01:07:42.620 in the air

01:07:43.160 almost immediately

01:07:44.580 clue you in

01:07:45.380 that your tsunami

01:07:46.820 was not your

01:07:47.380 biggest immediate

01:07:48.020 problem?

01:07:49.260 Right?

01:07:49.620 So I feel like

01:07:50.420 it would have

01:07:50.720 taken about

01:07:51.260 like a minute

01:07:52.000 and a half

01:07:52.640 for the crowds

01:07:53.900 in the street

01:07:54.520 to talk to each

01:07:55.360 other and say,

01:07:55.920 no, no, no,

01:07:56.360 they're just

01:07:56.640 sounding in your

01:07:57.140 alarm,

01:07:57.440 it's that fire.

01:07:58.880 Just run away

01:07:59.500 from the fire.

01:08:01.420 Yeah.

01:08:02.260 So I'm going

01:08:03.080 to go with

01:08:03.620 the people

01:08:03.960 who say

01:08:04.320 he should have

01:08:04.820 done the

01:08:05.160 alarm,

01:08:05.760 and if the

01:08:06.240 reason he

01:08:06.640 didn't is

01:08:07.100 because there

01:08:07.580 was a

01:08:07.920 guideline about

01:08:08.720 it,

01:08:09.720 then the

01:08:10.100 guideline's

01:08:10.600 a problem,

01:08:11.120 not him.

01:08:12.440 Do you

01:08:12.660 know why?

01:08:13.820 You cannot

01:08:14.560 ask somebody

01:08:15.320 in that

01:08:15.620 situation

01:08:16.180 to ignore

01:08:19.240 a guideline,

01:08:20.640 because he

01:08:21.280 would be

01:08:21.600 fired if

01:08:22.120 somebody died

01:08:23.400 because he

01:08:24.200 ignored the

01:08:25.800 guideline,

01:08:26.920 if somebody

01:08:27.360 died because

01:08:27.940 that would

01:08:28.420 be on him.

01:08:29.600 And that's

01:08:30.220 more than you

01:08:30.800 can ask an

01:08:31.480 official in that

01:08:32.200 situation.

01:08:33.260 So I'm going

01:08:33.800 to say,

01:08:34.500 you know,

01:08:34.780 we wish he

01:08:35.320 had acted

01:08:35.720 like a

01:08:36.120 hero.

01:08:36.900 Okay.

01:08:37.820 We wish he

01:08:38.600 had used his

01:08:39.100 common sense

01:08:39.820 and done

01:08:40.460 something different.

01:08:41.040 Okay.

01:08:42.660 I'm with you on

01:08:43.580 that.

01:08:44.400 But he was in

01:08:45.100 the situation

01:08:45.700 where making

01:08:46.240 that decision

01:08:46.800 was stupid

01:08:48.340 for himself.

01:08:50.060 In other

01:08:50.420 words,

01:08:51.440 not doing

01:08:52.260 something

01:08:52.820 probably felt

01:08:54.640 like the

01:08:55.060 smarter thing

01:08:55.700 than doing

01:08:56.180 something that

01:08:56.760 was against

01:08:57.160 the policy

01:08:57.760 and being

01:08:58.760 the reason

01:08:59.140 somebody died.

01:09:00.420 You don't

01:09:00.980 want somebody

01:09:01.800 to die

01:09:02.360 and you

01:09:03.400 violated the

01:09:04.060 policy in a

01:09:04.840 way that looks

01:09:05.340 like it

01:09:05.660 caused it.

01:09:06.160 That's the

01:09:07.120 worst.

01:09:08.340 So it's

01:09:09.580 super bad

01:09:10.500 that maybe

01:09:11.300 he was

01:09:11.700 responsible for

01:09:12.560 people dying

01:09:13.300 even more

01:09:13.880 than if he'd

01:09:14.360 done the

01:09:14.620 wrong thing.

01:09:16.200 But we

01:09:16.800 don't know.

01:09:17.720 So it's bad

01:09:18.600 either way,

01:09:19.580 but I'm

01:09:20.640 going to say

01:09:20.980 I would put

01:09:21.420 a little more

01:09:21.940 pressure on

01:09:22.960 the guidelines

01:09:24.860 for not being

01:09:26.300 sufficient to

01:09:27.640 give him

01:09:28.040 warning.

01:09:28.780 Here's what

01:09:29.280 the guidelines

01:09:29.760 should have

01:09:30.120 said.

01:09:31.720 This siren

01:09:32.520 is only for

01:09:33.200 this purpose,

01:09:35.460 but use

01:09:36.000 your judgment.

01:09:38.360 Right?

01:09:40.820 Wouldn't that

01:09:41.740 have solved

01:09:42.140 everything?

01:09:43.700 Just better

01:09:44.560 guidelines.

01:09:45.560 This guideline

01:09:46.360 should only be

01:09:47.160 used for

01:09:47.940 tsunami, but

01:09:49.440 if something

01:09:50.560 else comes

01:09:51.140 up, you

01:09:52.740 know, if

01:09:53.040 we're attacked

01:09:53.500 by aliens,

01:09:54.420 use your

01:09:54.860 judgment.

01:09:56.480 That's what

01:09:57.200 it should have

01:09:57.540 said.

01:09:58.140 If it had

01:09:58.820 only said

01:09:59.320 use your

01:09:59.780 judgment,

01:10:01.240 you know,

01:10:01.440 there could

01:10:01.760 be an

01:10:02.020 exception that

01:10:02.740 requires people

01:10:03.560 to get out

01:10:03.940 of their

01:10:04.080 homes.

01:10:04.540 everything

01:10:05.800 would be

01:10:06.620 fine.

01:10:07.860 I blame

01:10:08.620 who wrote

01:10:09.160 the

01:10:09.400 guidelines.

01:10:11.500 I blame

01:10:12.120 the guideline

01:10:12.760 writer, not

01:10:13.260 the person

01:10:13.920 who followed

01:10:14.320 it, because

01:10:15.200 that was an

01:10:15.640 impossible

01:10:16.260 situation.

01:10:18.080 We think

01:10:18.900 he chose

01:10:19.340 wrong, but

01:10:21.420 you'd have to

01:10:21.900 be in that

01:10:22.320 situation to

01:10:23.100 know that he

01:10:24.260 was risking

01:10:24.780 his life.

01:10:26.180 If he did

01:10:27.180 a positive

01:10:27.700 thing that

01:10:28.220 killed somebody,

01:10:28.780 he was

01:10:28.960 risking his

01:10:29.480 life.

01:10:29.780 if he

01:10:31.280 followed the

01:10:32.540 guidelines and

01:10:33.240 things went

01:10:33.740 wrong, and

01:10:35.100 he probably

01:10:35.400 had some

01:10:35.780 wishful thinking

01:10:36.500 that it

01:10:36.840 wouldn't go

01:10:37.160 wrong.

01:10:38.480 Do you

01:10:39.840 think he

01:10:40.140 could have

01:10:40.480 imagined the

01:10:42.600 type of

01:10:43.120 devastation that

01:10:44.000 was coming?

01:10:45.560 Do you

01:10:46.060 think in his

01:10:46.500 head he

01:10:47.220 knew what

01:10:47.560 the end

01:10:47.900 state looked

01:10:48.440 like?

01:10:48.780 I don't

01:10:49.000 think so.

01:10:50.120 You think

01:10:50.480 so?

01:10:51.560 No, I

01:10:52.000 don't think

01:10:52.320 anybody could

01:10:53.020 have even

01:10:53.580 imagined what

01:10:54.740 would happen

01:10:55.140 to Lahaina.

01:10:56.460 Even if you

01:10:57.200 saw the fire

01:10:58.000 coming from

01:10:59.360 the lesser

01:11:00.220 populated part

01:11:01.340 of the

01:11:01.560 island, and

01:11:02.600 you saw

01:11:02.940 hitting even

01:11:03.560 the suburbs,

01:11:05.240 it would be

01:11:05.660 just hard for

01:11:06.380 you to imagine

01:11:07.080 that everybody

01:11:08.400 couldn't get

01:11:08.940 out.

01:11:10.040 Like, you

01:11:10.420 don't see

01:11:10.800 fires moving

01:11:11.580 80 miles an

01:11:12.340 hour, which

01:11:13.380 is about what

01:11:13.860 it was doing.

01:11:16.180 All right, and

01:11:16.900 we will leave

01:11:17.840 Britney Spears

01:11:18.560 alone.

01:11:19.800 It's a personal

01:11:20.360 situation.

01:11:21.920 And that's all

01:11:23.740 for now.

01:11:24.740 I will talk to

01:11:25.220 you later,

01:11:25.680 YouTube.

01:11:26.260 Thanks for

01:11:26.700 being awesome.
