Real Coffee with Scott Adams - Episode 2376 CWSA 02⧸06⧸24

00:00:00.000 um good morning everybody and welcome to the highlight of human civilization oh we're gonna

00:00:10.960 have some fun today and it's not because the show is better than usual but it really will be it'll

00:00:17.240 be better than usual it's because the news is so delightful today a lot of funny stories crazy

00:00:22.980 stuff but if you'd like to take this experience up to levels that people can't even imagine with

00:00:27.780 their tiny human brains all you need is a cup or a mug or a glass a tanker chalice just i in a

00:00:33.640 canteen jug or flask a vessel of any kind fill it with your favorite liquid i like coffee and join

00:00:40.380 me now for the unparalleled pleasure the dopamine at the end of the day the thing that makes everything

00:00:44.620 better it's called the simultaneous sip it happens now go

00:00:48.700 quite perfect better than normal above average

00:00:57.040 well let me catch you up in the news uh there's a leaked video of uh musical uh star drake

00:01:08.280 who uh if you were to believe that the video is real appears to be pleasuring his uh gigantuan

00:01:17.780 uh male member uh while somebody surreptitiously films it now by coincidence his own phone is in

00:01:27.620 front of his face so there is no part of drake which i recognize i'd like to go on record and

00:01:34.500 saying that if i see a video of allegedly drake and the only part of it i can see are his feet

00:01:40.620 and his penis i'm gonna say i can't tell that's drake now for me i would have to see a little bit 0.94

00:01:48.480 of his face but apparently for just about everybody in the media seeing his exposed penis was enough

00:01:55.500 to identify him which raises many questions how many people have seen drake's dick

00:02:02.760 but now that i've seen it i think i'd recognize him next time i see one so i'm glad we all caught up on

00:02:10.340 that now you probably heard a story about uh biden uh and the story was told wrong um i'll try to

00:02:17.320 correct that the story was that he mixed up the names of the leader of france and that instead of

00:02:24.640 saying uh macron he uh accidentally referred to minterand who's been uh dead since 1996 now the way

00:02:33.840 it's being reported is biden is old and he mixed up a name and that's not not so different than things

00:02:39.620 that trump's done trump mixed up nancy pelosi and kamala harris or no and uh nikki haley

00:02:47.400 look at me mixing up names it's like i'm 100 years old anyway i don't think this is a story about

00:02:56.360 mixing up names i have a different theory i believe that biden is now so close to death

00:03:02.720 and he's gone so far toward the light you know down the tunnel that's what they say you go down

00:03:10.160 the tunnel toward the light i feel like he's about three quarters down the tunnel

00:03:14.240 and he can actually see the dead people so he didn't mention de gaulle but i think he can see him

00:03:23.540 so maybe not forgetting names so much as now about three quarters down the tunnel and

00:03:30.200 just past the light you can see some of his old friends back there that's what i think

00:03:35.380 i mean i'm just speculating but that's what it feels like

00:03:39.040 well ex-president trump has offered to replace biden for the super bowl interview which traditionally is

00:03:48.260 the sitting president but we have a sitting president who heard the opportunity that he could

00:03:55.380 speak wherever he wanted to and could say it in front of the biggest audience in all of america

00:04:02.640 the super bowl audience and the sitting president said no thanks and it's totally because he doesn't need to

00:04:12.000 right no we have a sitting president who literally can't do a tv interview it's too dangerous politically

00:04:22.700 that's a real thing that's happening right in front of us now there's no other explanation for it

00:04:31.240 am i right has anybody offered a second reason why he might not want to do the interview which would

00:04:40.220 be the biggest audience in america who's already you know at least half of them are in a good mood

00:04:45.000 i don't know i feel like they stopped trying to explain it you know it used to be well he's got

00:04:53.540 covid so he's going to stay in his basement you know there was always a cover story but there's no

00:04:58.400 cover story on this one is there this is just absolutely transparent he cannot do this interview

00:05:06.640 he just doesn't have the ability so trump cleverly says that he he'll do the interview and he says

00:05:15.640 it's quote ratings gold now wouldn't you be disappointed if you found out that biden wasn't going to do

00:05:24.860 this traditional interview because i guess there's a long history of of this uh and that you'd be so

00:05:32.320 disappointed if trump didn't offer to do it and say it was ratings gold if he had only just offered

00:05:38.280 to do it i'd be like and and it'd be like there's something's missing it's like i think i'll do the

00:05:45.660 interview and it's ratings gold there it is there it is that's the trump we're waiting for it's ratings

00:05:54.240 gold all right so there's a new censorship scandal i mean there's so many of these government

00:06:01.120 censorship scandals they're all starting to run together in my mind the the stories that i hate

00:06:07.120 are there's a new twist in one of the lawfare trials against trump oh god am i have gonna have

00:06:14.720 to understand which one it is and which corrupt da it is and which bullshit charges i don't want to 0.81

00:06:21.720 have to figure this out again because none of us seems real it just all seems like bullshit so like

00:06:27.300 you know it's like i literally i'm sifting through bullshit to find the better bullshit 0.72

00:06:33.260 like it's just it's hard to talk about some of these stories but there's another big one

00:06:39.380 representative jim jordan's posting about it and i think mike bens is taking a victory lap for

00:06:45.640 being uh you know the one who brought this to our attention

00:06:49.300 and this is what happened apparently the national science foundation uh ns f

00:06:57.620 uh they had massive funding from the government to develop all these ai automated tools for censoring

00:07:07.540 online speech as scale so the u.s government was massively funding an organization

00:07:15.540 to suppress political speech on the other side now they don't call it that they call it suppressing

00:07:24.040 misinformation but the things that we know they were suppressing were at least half of it was true

00:07:30.340 you know they may have actually suppressed things that were not true as well probably but probably at

00:07:36.860 least half of the important things were actually true when they suppressed them or tried to

00:07:40.460 so there is a total information that our government has tried to do the very thing our

00:07:48.800 our constitution says not to and the way they did it was by funding uh entities that we couldn't tell

00:07:55.840 we're doing it or were outside the government so they did everything they could to thwart the

00:08:01.940 constitution of the united states not for a good reason either it looks like it's completely political

00:08:08.120 it doesn't look like there was any even intended national benefit at all

00:08:13.600 all right let's talk about uh kamala harris and gaslighting on the economy so i'll give you a very

00:08:22.500 brief economics lesson here just how to understand when the government's talking about how the economy is

00:08:28.960 doing now i've told you uh even before the pandemic i think i told you that if there's one thing you get

00:08:37.140 right you'll be okay and that's employment as long as the employment numbers are good it's really hard

00:08:44.680 to follow into fall into a recession you know get into a depression or anything like that so you could

00:08:51.140 have a lot of things going wrong but as long as the jobs are looking good you're going to be in better

00:08:57.120 shape however that rule just changed and the biden administration is i think taking advantage of the

00:09:06.180 the fact that people don't know that rule changed every other time if you said employment is good

00:09:12.280 it was 85 of the whole story everything else would also just be good but in the face of massive

00:09:22.340 unaffordability which will be the key word unaffordability or affordability problem people are

00:09:29.680 taking two jobs so if people are taking two jobs because they can't afford things that's not a win

00:09:36.320 but it would show up as you know jobs opening and jobs being filled and stuff like that the other thing

00:09:42.680 you need to know is uh if your government does not tie what the government does to the outcome

00:09:50.620 they're just bragging about somebody else's accomplishment so yes uh there are lots of jobs

00:09:57.280 were created that will get revised down maybe but lots of jobs were created so what was the policy

00:10:04.280 that biden did to create those jobs go name the thing that biden did that you can connect to creating

00:10:12.360 a job i'm not aware of anything infrastructure bill the what the one thing that they talk about

00:10:20.520 what was it uh i mean seriously what was it i'm not aware of anything that they did that would have

00:10:28.320 some direct effect on jobs so why is he why is he claiming victory on something he actually literally

00:10:35.600 didn't even work on it yeah so if anything he's made it harder to get a job for white people

00:10:42.640 for the dei stuff anyway so when you hear that jobs are good it's true it would have also been

00:10:51.360 true under trump it will always be true that if you're coming off a pandemic you know there's going

00:10:57.840 to be some depression from the pandemic that takes a few years to dig out of and you should expect

00:11:03.520 you know better you know sort of a little bump in employment and stuff like that just because you're

00:11:09.360 coming out of a situation like the pandemic so first of all the numbers are weird because the

00:11:14.700 pandemic um number two it probably would have been exactly the same if he'd replaced him with any

00:11:21.100 president and there's no there's no particular policy nor does she claim it there's no claim being

00:11:27.960 made that because we did this we got this outcome they're trying to make you think that he did things

00:11:33.920 and they call it bidenomics what was it well what was the thing just name it and then connect it to the

00:11:42.860 the things you say are going right and then tell me why that wouldn't have happened if any other president

00:11:48.540 had been there all right um the other thing is the stock market and the gdp are up do you know why the stock

00:11:57.660 market is up and the gdp is up probably because of inflation inflation yeah the stock market is just

00:12:06.640 adjusting to inflation and the gdp is just adjusting to inflation so if you have inflation those two

00:12:14.080 things go up but it's not good news but how much of the public knows that if you were to do a you know

00:12:22.120 a survey of the public how many of them could tell you that they do understand that the stock market

00:12:27.160 and the gross domestic product go up just because the price of stuff goes up that's not because

00:12:33.340 you're doing better i mean we might be doing better but it would go up because the you know

00:12:38.860 any price increases she also says we have the strongest economy of any nation now it might be

00:12:46.240 true but is that telling you what you want to know wouldn't you want to know what direction is moving

00:12:51.620 suppose we started with the strongest economy which we had and suppose it got weaker but everybody else

00:13:00.240 you know was not doing so well so that weakness didn't put us below anybody else would you brag

00:13:05.740 about that no so literally this could be bad news but it would be expressed in the same words

00:13:12.500 we're doing better than other countries we were doing better than other countries before

00:13:17.120 we've always been better than other countries you know economy wise so and depends how you measure it

00:13:25.220 you know um i'm sure there's small there probably some small country that is doing better but

00:13:30.920 that's a that's a spin there um she says we have historically low black unemployment

00:13:38.360 do we is the black unemployment better now than it was under trump what do you think i i thought that

00:13:48.760 trump had the the record and then she also said that uh historically low unemployment that's just

00:13:56.940 untrue isn't it i thought trump had i thought trump's numbers were better but to be fair it was before the

00:14:05.360 pandemic and so if i'm using the you know the same fair rules i'm using for biden i would say that

00:14:12.680 you know trump's numbers before the pandemic you know can't be compared to really anything else

00:14:17.620 but my understanding is that's the situation so let me let me summarize so she's got uh here are

00:14:29.400 reasons uh strongest economy of any nation she's leaving out what's important which is did the gap 1.00

00:14:36.780 between how strong we were and how others were shrink or grow so that's just misdirection

00:14:42.960 we have historically low unemployment and historically low black unemployment rate i believe those are just 0.93

00:14:49.920 lies because i think i think trump had better numbers there uh wages have outpaced inflation i believe

00:14:57.820 that's just not true am i wrong i think this is not true um consumer confidence is up is that true

00:15:06.800 do you think consumer confidence is up yeah i think so no i think it is i think it is not everybody

00:15:14.880 but you know why consumer confidence is up

00:15:18.200 the news and the politicians have been telling you for months that they think that the news has not done a

00:15:26.160 good enough job saying how great the economy is so the news that works for the democrats decided to

00:15:32.280 tell you how great the economy was over and over again until the public said oh well i didn't realize

00:15:37.400 that but it must be good for other people because it doesn't look good for me but if the news says it's

00:15:43.520 good for other people yeah so she's got let's see one misdirection three lies and one consumer 0.73

00:15:55.600 confidence claim that's based on brainwashing that they did

00:15:59.000 and that's her claim for the economy misdirection three lies and something that they they gained through 1.00

00:16:10.200 propaganda that's not based on any reality and inflation helped the gdp in the stock market

00:16:15.740 and there's no connection to any uh any policies so here's a question tell me if you've ever seen this

00:16:25.180 asked has steve doocy or anybody else said uh the economy does have some good points to it

00:16:32.520 as you've mentioned which policies are the ones that cause those to happen is it the open borders

00:16:40.720 that help the employment numbers do so well was it the open borders that caused black unemployment to

00:16:48.840 be low i feel like his policies should be working against all of these things it's just that they

00:16:56.760 haven't worked against them long enough and hard enough so all right so matt gates is doing something

00:17:05.240 very clever that i approve of he's introducing a resolution to get people on record uh saying that

00:17:14.000 trump did not engage in an insurrection or rebellion against the united states so the idea is to get members

00:17:20.980 of congress especially republicans to go on record officially to say do you think that was an

00:17:30.400 insurrection god i love that i just love it because here's the thing you're probably thinking to

00:17:38.660 yourself you know it's some kind of uh trump loyalty test that's that's how the people say it it's a

00:17:45.800 loyalty test because if you're not willing to say that you're you're uh you know orange cheeto jesus

00:17:52.680 uh is innocent of all charges then you can't be a republican right that's the way it'll be spun

00:17:58.140 here's the other way to look at it this is my way to look at it this is an iq test

00:18:04.440 it's an iq test if you think that january 6 was an insurrection today

00:18:12.000 today you're a fucking idiot that's the end of the story and i would love to get a list of all the 0.99

00:18:21.840 idiots and this is really useful because if you can get this you know into practice you know i don't 0.85

00:18:28.160 know what it takes to make a resolution happen but if you could get everybody to sign up whether they

00:18:33.120 they are so fucking dumb that today they actually think that was a an insurrection or rebellion i do want 0.87

00:18:39.240 to know them i want to know their names don't you want to know the names of somebody who would be

00:18:45.920 this dumb because that's too dumb to be an elected official that should be the end of your career

00:18:51.240 if you believe it at this point that should be the end of your career and if you vote for the border

00:18:56.860 bill that should be the end of your career but that's separate we'll get to that so yeah i love

00:19:02.180 matt gates giving a an iq test to republicans um so nikki haley is applied to get to secret service

00:19:11.460 protection cnn reports now you might say to yourself does she really need secret service protection she

00:19:18.420 might because you know there's a lot of a lot of political you know a lot of political action that

00:19:26.820 could turn physical and so i'd like to see her get serious secret service protection but not unless 0.99

00:19:33.460 jfk that or rfk does if rfk jr doesn't get any secret service protection then i gotta say no i gotta

00:19:42.260 say no you got to do them both both or none because if you're going to be this obvious about who you want

00:19:49.540 to live and who you want to get shot uh that's no good yeah you're gonna have to at least hide it a

00:19:56.660 little bit by giving them both protection or neither of them protection but no way can you give her

00:20:03.700 protection and not him i mean that would be crazy so we'll keep an eye on that they'll probably just ignore

00:20:12.340 it um here on the they always accuse you of what they are doing contest so the ap has a story about

00:20:21.620 how uh trump is super sexist about nikki haley and here are the evidence that trump is the sexist 0.76

00:20:31.060 against nikki haley he called her bird brain 0.89

00:20:34.340 um he said that she her dress was not so fancy and that once unrelated to uh any of the nikki haley

00:20:44.820 stuff in 2016 he was on a recorded video saying that he can just grab them by the you know what

00:20:53.380 that's it that's their evidence that trump is the sexist

00:20:58.820 now let's compare that to what nikki haley has said out loud in public multiple times 0.52

00:21:08.900 if you need to if you need to get something done call a woman 1.00

00:21:13.780 she said that directly which one is sexist a normal insult that trump uses for every single

00:21:20.260 person in the world like bird brain or you know whatever he calls everybody else

00:21:24.900 the most normal thing he does so by insulting nikki haley he is treating her exactly the way he 0.97

00:21:30.580 treats men and the ap said if you treat her exactly the way you treat men that's sexist and they're 0.57

00:21:38.260 actually trying to sell that that treating her the same way he treats everybody is sexist while she

00:21:46.180 in front of everybody says that you should vote for her in part because she has a vagina and that 1.00

00:21:52.340 gives her an advantage over men who people have penises you know not counting trans 1.00

00:22:00.580 yeah so this is such a perfect example of they always accuse you what they're doing trump

00:22:09.140 correct me if i'm wrong trump has never once said that a woman would be less good at a job go in any

00:22:19.620 domain you know maybe you know playing in the nba or something but ever has trump ever said that uh

00:22:27.940 in his in his employment at trump you know the company trump has he ever said that he uh didn't think

00:22:34.740 that the women could do the job nope he's actually quite famous for promoting women even way before it

00:22:42.260 was fashionable is that fair to say that he was aggressively promoting women in his organization

00:22:49.700 way before it was fashionable true or false i think that's just true now and and never once as he had

00:22:59.780 uttered a single word that you could interpret as thinking that women would have some you know lesser

00:23:07.380 ability for politics or running a big organization like his own never not once but nikki haley says it

00:23:15.060 in public more than once so this is the perfect example of they always accuse you what they're doing

00:23:23.300 i don't think this one could be any more clear now does trump say does trump say uh offensive sounding

00:23:31.540 things when he thinks nobody's listening yeah like every other person i've ever met in my life

00:23:37.700 like every person i've ever met in my entire life that's just how people talk when they think nobody's

00:23:45.540 listening all right so the mayorkis impeachment is going on now or impeachment attempt well we don't

00:23:53.940 think that he will get impeached because it seems to be closer to something like an interpretation of

00:24:00.500 policy that it does look like breaking the laws or something that would be impeachable but the

00:24:07.060 aggressiveness with which he's let's say misinterpreting the policies or interpreting them

00:24:14.020 in a way that is most negative to the united states is very concerning i don't understand why he would

00:24:22.820 given that you could interpret you know various laws differently why would he always pick the worst way

00:24:28.020 is that a coincidence why would he pick the way that's worse for the united states when his job is

00:24:34.980 to protect us and i think that alone should be impeachable if you can't explain why all the things

00:24:40.420 you do are bad for the united states it ought to be impeachable i mean i get that it's not technically

00:24:48.260 but i do like the fact that he's going through the process so we can all talk about him being impeachable

00:24:53.540 that's something you know at least at least it clarifies the situation for the public yeah it

00:25:00.500 might not be a law but it's so bad that we think we need to run him through an impeachment process that's

00:25:07.700 how bad it is because it doesn't look like it no it doesn't look like incompetence no if you think

00:25:14.500 this is incompetence i think that's the last possibility

00:25:22.020 well rob reiner continues to entertain he had two posts at different times one of them was about

00:25:29.140 trump and he said i don't know when but it must have been a while ago he posted the only reassuring

00:25:34.740 thing about a pathological liar is when he says something you know it's not true and then he says there

00:25:41.060 is no crisis at the border now obviously uh trump was saying there was a crisis at the border sometime

00:25:46.660 in the past and so rob reiner wants you to know there is no crisis at the border also rob reiner later

00:25:54.740 it's uh it's simple donald trump and the house republicans don't give a flying

00:26:00.580 fuck about fixing our border problems he said both of those things

00:26:06.020 now do you remember when you thought he was just a serious citizen who was involved in politics and

00:26:14.180 you just disagreed with them now you know that's not what's happening right

00:26:20.900 you can see it now right yeah yeah there you should not take him seriously as even a person with an opinion

00:26:29.700 he he he posts like it's his job like he just works for the cia you're i think your working

00:26:38.900 assumption is that he's just an intelligence asset it doesn't mean it's true but your your working

00:26:45.860 assumption probably should be something reasonable if you think that these are reasonable opinions by just

00:26:52.500 like a normal citizen it's clearly not because there's such a disconnect between what we know

00:26:59.460 must be his intelligence because he's very successful with the way he talks it's such a disconnect

00:27:06.340 that there's no way he's just being dumb all right there's something else going on but my assumption

00:27:13.780 is it's just exactly what it looks like it looks like somebody's working for the democrats or the cia

00:27:20.340 or something don't know that for sure it's just my working assumption now let's talk about this

00:27:27.140 border bill that appears to be the worst thing anybody ever did um kyle bass and lots of other

00:27:33.860 people are weighing in on it i'll just tell you what kyle said but you can see i don't know just

00:27:39.060 dozens of other people say my god did you read what's in this bill it's the opposite of what it's trying

00:27:44.580 to do which is generally the case usually our bills are labeled the opposite of what they do

00:27:50.420 all right musk has been talking about that a lot that we label them the opposite

00:27:57.140 so apparently part of this bill believe it or not would grant mayorkis

00:28:02.980 the ability to grant uh asylum and even american citizenship at the border without review

00:28:12.580 by anybody

00:28:18.740 including the intelligence agencies so somebody could come in and literally be a terrorist

00:28:25.460 and mayorkis can say you're a citizen and that would be the end of it there would be no review

00:28:33.780 that's actually in this bill yeah like like try to wrap your head around that

00:28:40.020 why would that be there give me a reason why that would be there there is no reason

00:28:47.460 this bill is clearly not designed to help the united states all right and and it's not a democrat

00:28:55.860 or republican thing this is clearly something else is going on this is in the category of something else is

00:29:04.660 going on don't know what but this is not a policy disagreement if you think there's oh we're being

00:29:13.460 a little inefficient you know it's a it's a or it's a it's an election year so people being a little more

00:29:20.100 political that's not really what's going on i don't know what's going on but this is one of those

00:29:26.660 situations where we need to stop everything until we figure out what's going on

00:29:31.220 right remember when trump said quite provocatively let's stop immigration from certain countries until

00:29:37.060 we figure out what's going on his instinct was completely right

00:29:41.700 because if you don't know what's going on the first thing you need to do is find out

00:29:48.660 how's that not obvious whatever's happening with this weird border bill

00:29:52.980 it's it's not based on policy differences it's not based on politics and i can't even follow the

00:30:04.660 money it's you know i guess if they tie it to ukraine and israel i can follow it but if you just look at

00:30:11.060 the border part by itself it doesn't make any sense at all it doesn't make sense for democrats or republicans

00:30:16.660 i can't imagine it would be one democrat voter not politician voter who would be in favor of this

00:30:24.260 bill if they knew what was in it is that your take on it that not even a republican not even a democrat

00:30:31.220 would if they knew what was in it because apparently the democrats are just lying to everybody about

00:30:36.980 what's in it and they're treating it like it's a solution to the border crisis it's not it's not even

00:30:43.940 in that realm it's literally making it worse it's like legitimizing keeping it as bad as it is it

00:30:51.300 couldn't be worse so

00:30:56.660 i think we should stop talking about it like a policy difference i feel that's we're completely

00:31:02.740 as citizens if we allow them to tell us that this is some kind of policy difference

00:31:08.020 that we've been completely brainwashed this is not a policy difference but i don't know what it is

00:31:15.140 we need to stop everything until we figure out what's going on and i mean we should not

00:31:21.620 we should not consider even voting on it one way or the other we have to figure out how this happened

00:31:27.140 in the first place who put this on paper

00:31:29.940 uh i want to know what's behind this because this is i mean it looks like it's closer to treason than

00:31:40.100 it is to a policy difference a policy difference would have people disagreeing on the details

00:31:47.780 that's not what's going on they're not disagreeing on the details they don't they

00:31:53.140 literally are being bamboozled about what's in it and it's clearly designed to make things worse

00:32:00.020 that's not politics that i don't even know where to follow the money for that there's something else

00:32:06.580 going on they need to shut the whole system down until they figure what that is they shouldn't vote

00:32:11.220 on anything they shouldn't pass the budget for anything they should shut the government down

00:32:16.180 because i don't want more of this you need to stop and figure out what's wrong and then maybe figure

00:32:25.860 out a way to fix it but no yeah right now the the current system would be what the current system would

00:32:34.420 either be you know blackmail and threaten and bribe people to vote for this piece of garbage 0.51

00:32:39.860 right that'd be the normal process or go back and create a frankenstein too which will be every 0.98

00:32:48.580 bit as bad as this and then come back and tell us it was fixed and hope enough people are now

00:32:53.940 desperate you know they got to get that ukraine funding they got to get that israel funding that they'll

00:32:59.540 just give up and vote for it that's what's going to happen there either there'll either be some kind

00:33:07.860 of force making people to vote for it because they want the other things or they'll go back and rewrite

00:33:13.380 it worse you know that right it's not going to come back making sense it's not even going to come back

00:33:20.420 looking like a democrat plan at least that i'd understand you might like it you might not like it but at least

00:33:27.300 shouldn't it be at least consistent with what democrat voters would want i don't see the democrat voters

00:33:33.620 wanting open borders at least by a majority and the ones who think they want it are just not the

00:33:41.860 people who should be in this conversation they're people who don't understand it or i mean they're

00:33:47.460 just they're honestly they're limited capacity people let me say it as directly as possible the

00:33:53.140 only people who could be in favor of the current situation on the border are people who have limited

00:33:58.020 limited capacity now that's a lot of people limited capacity by that i mean the inability

00:34:05.700 to see the short term and long term of a fairly complicated issue right immigration is simpler than

00:34:13.700 some but still a little bit complicated i think that the only people who could be in favor of this

00:34:18.420 are low capacity people this has nothing to do with politics

00:34:22.100 um so and i would i would go further and i know this sounds like hyperbole but i would cancel the

00:34:33.780 elections the presidential elections let me say that again because i'm serious and i know you won't take

00:34:40.500 me we should cancel the elections because we don't have a secure system and no matter who wins we're not

00:34:46.580 going to believe it you know that no matter who wins the country won't believe it under those under

00:34:53.940 that one situation you need to cancel the election i'm going to say this as many times as it takes so

00:35:02.580 you know i'm serious under the specific situation that you know for sure and we do that neither side

00:35:09.380 will accept the result because they won't believe the election was fair under that specific situation

00:35:15.940 and on top of that a system which was designed for for corruption it's not designed to remove it

00:35:24.260 right if we designed it to remove corruption the elections would be the same day no prior voting

00:35:31.460 it'd be on paper there'd be no computers and everybody would look at what's happening and we'd have

00:35:36.340 the result the same day we'd know how to do it so if the democrats don't believe the system if it goes the

00:35:44.020 other way and the republicans won't believe the result if it goes not their way and we have a system which

00:35:51.620 very clearly and objectively is designed for fraud obviously i mean it's really obvious we should cancel

00:35:59.460 the election until we fix it now you're saying to me but scott that would mean biden or kamala

00:36:08.500 harris are running the country yup that's exactly what i'm saying because you're watching them

00:36:16.900 disintegrate right in front of you and you might need that to understand how bad this is you might need

00:36:23.140 to watch biden try to be president while he's just literally just drooling on himself right because

00:36:28.740 you know they're going to push they're going to tell you he's still okay i i want to tell them i want

00:36:33.620 to see the democrats tell you he's okay when he's just drooling on the fucking microphone 0.92

00:36:39.380 right that's what i want i do want that because i believe the deep state will keep the country running

00:36:45.380 just fine and if the worst thing is that we don't give them money for foreign wars because we're too

00:36:50.740 incompetent and everything's shut down fine fine yeah let them work it out let them just work it out

00:37:02.580 but we are not in the domain of politics anymore we're the we're in the domain of there's something

00:37:08.340 wrong and we got to figure out what it is it looks like foreign influence it's either foreign influence

00:37:16.180 or somebody is in charge of our country domestically that we just don't know who it is and we don't know

00:37:21.940 why they're doing it if we can't explain why soros is funding every fucking thing that's bad for the 0.91

00:37:28.420 country and that the democrats are just going oh give us some more lap there's something going on

00:37:37.060 and i say just shut it all down we might need a constitutional convention in which we just

00:37:43.860 rewrite this ship because we designed a system that doesn't work in modern times i think the founders

00:37:49.860 were brilliant and they designed a system that worked for a few hundred years but it doesn't work now

00:37:56.900 and here's why i think the media brainwashing machine got too good

00:38:06.100 the brainwashing function got too good and that's not something that the early settlers could have

00:38:14.580 understood they would never have seen the mainstream media coming the internet they would have never seen

00:38:20.660 you know the massive censorship machine they would have seen that so i think we need to stop

00:38:26.580 cancel the election cancel this frankenstein bill immediately no matter what happens i don't

00:38:32.100 care what happens in israel i don't care what happens in ukraine i literally don't because

00:38:38.020 whatever happens is going to be horrible it's just going to be some different version of horrible

00:38:42.100 and somebody else is going to pay for it so if you're just making me choose among the horribles

00:38:47.140 great you pay for it you pay for it if it's going to be horrible no matter what you

00:38:52.740 fucking pay for it why am i funding your fucking horrible choices you go fund your own horrible 0.99

00:38:58.740 choices so cancel the election literally literally do a constitutional convention and figure out if we

00:39:08.180 can come up with a system where we can still have free speech without government censorship working

00:39:14.260 through the ngos and all their fake fact checkers and the fake adl and the fake you know fake 0.86

00:39:20.500 everything um and just see if we can rewrite it and maybe not change everything you know you don't

00:39:26.100 want to throw everything away you want to keep the good stuff but we need something something that deals

00:39:32.340 with whatever's happening because whatever's happening is new and not something the founders contemplated

00:39:39.300 and if we keep pretending that the the problem is a policy difference we're not even in the right

00:39:46.500 frame it's the wrong frame look at this bill you tell me in all seriousness you think that the border bill

00:39:56.580 was a case of policy disagreement that's not even close to what we're seeing it's not even in the

00:40:04.420 neighborhood of of even a little bit smelling like it could be true we're in some other different domain

00:40:12.260 here and i don't know what it is we're gonna have to stop everything and figure it out

00:40:17.860 and if that means that trump doesn't get elected in november i'm i'm for that because just there's no way

00:40:25.620 he's going to get elected under a current system you know that right they're either going to kill him or

00:40:31.060 drink the election i mean it doesn't look like he has a chance honestly so when i say we should

00:40:36.900 cancel the election if you're thinking oh my god maybe trump won't get elected if they can't no it

00:40:43.460 probably didn't change that at all probably didn't make any difference

00:40:50.820 you might see today a report about election integrity

00:40:56.260 that could be really interesting

00:41:04.580 so there's something coming if you haven't seen it yet so i'm not i can't mention it because you

00:41:09.460 might not have seen it i don't know if it's out but there's something coming today on election integrity

00:41:15.700 in 2020 that you're gonna find really interesting really really interesting and let's just say

00:41:25.460 it's exactly what you thought

00:41:29.140 it's exactly what you thought appeals court ruled against trump is that new

00:41:35.220 what appeal appeals court

00:41:42.180 do you see what they rule which which of the many things

00:41:45.700 rejects

00:41:49.940 rejects his immunity bid oh yeah i expected that though didn't we all expect that the immunity bid

00:41:56.340 wouldn't work

00:41:59.300 i don't know that that's not a big surprise but i think a lot of the challenges are just

00:42:04.020 to delay things until after the election oh actually that would be a problem wouldn't it

00:42:08.260 if you cancel the election they have more time to get trump well that would that would be an argument

00:42:13.300 against it that would definitely be an argument against it all right

00:42:18.740 um

00:42:24.980 so kelly ann conway did a uh opinion piece i think it was in the uh i forget where maybe new york

00:42:34.500 times or something doesn't matter and uh kelly ann conway said that she thinks that trump

00:42:39.300 should pick a person of color not because of your weird diversity reasons but just because it would

00:42:45.700 help help help the election you know just a practical thing and she says she would

00:42:51.220 narrow it down so these are the names that she's she's got on her list uh rubio

00:42:57.380 how many of you think of marco rubio as a person of color

00:43:03.460 marco rubio do you do you think marco rubio would gain trump even one vote because he's a person of color

00:43:11.780 he wouldn't get one vote for his ethnicity would he am i wrong about that i don't think so

00:43:24.420 uh anyway

00:43:26.900 i guess marco rubio i guess would be the perfect example of the way i think we should do things

00:43:34.020 i love the fact that i guess technically he'd be a person of color

00:43:37.700 but i can't think of any time that marco rubio has ever talked about it has he i mean maybe he

00:43:44.260 has but he hasn't he hasn't talked that up like oh you know vote for me i'm a person of color i mean

00:43:51.060 i think he treats it like it doesn't exist which allows me to treat it like it doesn't exist

00:43:56.740 which is how i want to treat it

00:43:58.020 so yeah i mean i'm gonna give him credit for that all right so she mentions uh rubio she says uh

00:44:07.540 tim scott byron donalds and ben carson representative uh wesley hunt never heard of him who's wesley hunt

00:44:20.180 has anybody ever heard of representative wesley hunt

00:44:22.820 from texas yeah

00:44:30.100 mike's brother you're funny all right and then she mentions uh vivek ramaswamy

00:44:40.340 uh now let's look at her list so here's what i believe kelly ann conway is doing

00:44:45.700 when somebody randomly who's involved in politics writes a uh opinion piece you might say to yourself

00:44:54.580 oh there's somebody writing an opinion piece and i'll bet it will agree with their side and all that

00:45:00.900 but kelly ann conway is not your average pundit i believe and i would look for an opinion on this

00:45:08.980 from you as well i believe that when she writes a piece like this that this has a function to it

00:45:16.420 i believe that she's testing these names on behalf of trump to see what kind of reaction it gets

00:45:23.060 does it look like that to you that all she's doing is doing a focus group by putting it out there and

00:45:28.980 letting people talk about it so in my view she would not have done this unless trump had already

00:45:36.340 nerded down to these exact names so i think she's signaling

00:45:42.900 that it's going to be one of these and then she's seeing how you feel about it

00:45:48.900 now let's look at the list let's go further

00:45:53.300 marco rubio do you think that that is uh would help trump to have another florida guy

00:46:01.620 i think i think mark root marco rubio is you know obviously he's a strong politician but i think

00:46:08.340 he's a hard no it kind of doesn't make sense yeah i just don't think he's not going to get enough

00:46:15.540 he's going to get somebody who agrees with him and doesn't get any extra votes i say no on rubio even

00:46:21.620 though he's a you know he's a solid guy uh tim scott another solid guy

00:46:27.940 you know and he he checks the you know checks the box so everybody would at least know he's a person

00:46:33.860 of color i think he's too weak um i just say he's too weak i think if you've got somebody like trump

00:46:44.900 who's a certain age you're going to look at the vice president as a they've got to have the same

00:46:50.900 power level right this isn't like um you know vice presidents of old where you didn't really need

00:46:59.540 them to be as good as the top of the ticket this isn't that this is the one case where you need this

00:47:05.540 vice president to be as good as the top of the ticket sort of like a gore clinton situation which was rare

00:47:11.860 um so how about uh byron donald's or uh tim scott i would say that byron donald's is not quite

00:47:23.540 seasoned enough i don't know what he's accomplished exactly although he's strong i mean his future looks

00:47:31.540 bright tim scott i just don't think he's got the gravitas like i just don't think he's like the hammer

00:47:41.300 that you might need uh how about ben carson i think ben's too sleepy i just don't think ben has

00:47:49.540 the fire to be a vice president and certainly not you know he's a certain age etc not ben carson uh

00:47:55.700 wesley hunt i don't know anything about him so that would be that would be a pick if you didn't want

00:48:02.580 your vice president to make any difference it feels like that would be just the larry elder is a certain

00:48:09.460 age he's over 70 i don't think you want your vice president to be over 70 that that would be a bad

00:48:16.020 choice um then you get to vivek here's what i think to me it seems obvious that kelly ann conway is

00:48:26.020 testing vivek what do you think i don't think she's even really testing the other names i think this is

00:48:33.540 literally just a test of vivek if you put him in a group of other uh oh is that wesley hunt

00:48:42.500 i feel like i may have seen him before

00:48:48.100 so does it feel like and i and i think specifically she's testing vivek against the black choices

00:48:55.060 what do you think because the real question would be uh if trump if trump picked a black running mate

00:49:03.540 i think that would everybody would say okay that's you know to get some extra votes and it might

00:49:08.660 actually be a strong play i could definitely see that that would be a strong play but you need somebody

00:49:15.140 who's credible i think byron donald's just needs a little more seasoning you know we just need to see

00:49:22.820 him accomplish a few more things he could be great in the future he might be terrific um and the others

00:49:28.580 are a little light but when i see the the boldness with which vivek you know talks about what he would

00:49:35.940 do when i see that he went from nowhere to make such a big dent in the election i mean for somebody who

00:49:42.900 is an unknown and when you look at his success um you know business success you look at his renaissance

00:49:51.860 man ability to understand lots of topics i feel like this is an easy choice

00:49:58.660 what do you think does it does it seem to you like it just jumps out as the obvious choice or am

00:50:04.980 i just too i mean i am very pro the vague so i can't pretend i'm unbiased but it looks like an obvious choice

00:50:13.540 because the others are just going to give trump either a a nothing or a little bit

00:50:22.340 i think vivek would have the potential to give him more than any vice president ever gave a candidate

00:50:29.300 i think i think it would be a legendary combination and it would be the most confident thing that trump

00:50:36.500 could ever do you know some of you said that trump wouldn't handle the fact that vivek you know is a

00:50:43.700 strong personality and he's so smart i say opposite i think you're reading trump completely wrong

00:50:51.300 i say that trump loves brilliance like he runs toward it all the time he wants to work with it he

00:50:59.300 he wants to compliment it he wants to be around it he loves brilliance there's no way he doesn't like

00:51:04.820 vivek and vivek likes him so that's the other requirement right so to me it's like

00:51:12.660 a perfect combination really i doubt it could be better in my view and it wouldn't have worked the

00:51:18.660 first election because trump wasn't already an experienced president but now that trump is an

00:51:23.940 experienced president it makes perfect it just it just fits in every way um senator massey was uh

00:51:35.220 talking about uh mayorkas uh destroying some records so apparently this whole pipe bomb situation you

00:51:41.860 know the pipe bomb situation there was a fake it turns out a fake fake pipe bomb uh near where kamala

00:51:48.660 harris was uh at the dnc headquarters on january 6th and there's lots of mystery about why we didn't know

00:51:56.980 things and there's text messages that were magically destroyed that would have told us more and massey's

00:52:04.420 making the case that mayorkas was the you know the top boss when all this happened and it's a records retention

00:52:12.100 violation and that maybe it should be researched

00:52:15.700 now i'm not one who thinks that records retention is the biggest crime and that we need to get really

00:52:22.820 tough on that whichever side it is it just doesn't excite me um but i have this question how many times

00:52:32.660 have democrats destroyed records and got away with it is anybody keeping a record like yeah we know hillary's

00:52:41.060 emails and hillary's phones she bleached bits and destroyed the phones but correct me if i'm wrong 1.00

00:52:47.940 aren't there now several stories like that and they're all democrats it was all people who were caught

00:52:55.140 red-handed and then they deleted the only thing that would get them in trouble yeah all of the january

00:53:00.340 six testimony deleted the the pipe bomb text messages deleted

00:53:11.380 yeah the fbi deleting stuff yeah i don't know it's sort of telling me that as a legal strategy

00:53:21.220 uh you should destroy any records no matter how legally they've been requested it if i feel like

00:53:29.300 destroying records is just a smart play at this point because it keeps working

00:53:36.580 anyway tucker is in tucker carlson's in moscow the word is that he's already talked to

00:53:42.900 uh putin now of course the hill uh is quoting the guardian saying that tucker said uh why can't i root

00:53:52.740 for russia i'm rooting for them do you think tucker said that do you think that the hill that quotes the

00:54:02.260 guardian that quotes tucker said why can't i root for russia i doubt it but here's how you should analyze

00:54:11.940 this so the hill makes the claim but they don't support the claim they port to the they point to

00:54:18.580 the guardian so i followed the link and the guardian makes the claim and then i look for the source

00:54:25.780 so i can you know see it for myself because obviously if you make a claim like tucker carlson

00:54:31.380 said he supports russia and there's a video right it wasn't there so the source that makes the claim

00:54:39.780 doesn't have a video to show you where it came from it's the news it's the news

00:54:48.740 that's a pretty big claim to not have a little bit of evidence for now i'm not saying that he didn't

00:54:53.700 say those words i just don't know the context now i think at one point he said he was joking or something

00:54:59.380 i don't know but um it also raises an interesting question why can't he root for russia

00:55:13.540 it's actually a pretty good question now that part he may have he may why can't he

00:55:18.500 i i asked that of myself i said all right think of all the things that russia has done to hurt me

00:55:27.780 uh i think of all the things that ukraine has done to hurt me i feel like they're very expensive

00:55:36.500 and i feel like they're the reason that russia might be a risk to me

00:55:39.860 because of ukraine so do i think that the ukrainian population would be bet would be worse off under

00:55:49.540 russian rule i don't know how would i even know that now obviously if russia took over ukraine that

00:55:59.700 you know kill all the leaders on day one but have those leaders done a good job

00:56:04.980 and would the people in ukraine find that their economy started improving right away

00:56:12.260 because i don't see the russians complaining about their economy am i wrong is there a big uprising in

00:56:20.500 in russia of people who say our economy is bad i don't think there is i think putin has like weirdly

00:56:27.620 high approval so if the guy with high approval that nobody is complaining internally about his economy

00:56:33.940 wants to do the same for ukraine which was a corrupt basket case 0.98

00:56:40.260 what is worse for ukraine letting russia win i actually don't know i actually can't tell if ukraine

00:56:48.820 is better off letting their corrupt government steal all their money and drive them into poverty and

00:56:54.740 create wars for no reason or would they be better off if they just said peace they had a new leader

00:57:01.940 who may also be corrupt but it couldn't be any worse than it is who doesn't start a war because

00:57:07.060 it's russia i mean he wouldn't start a war with ukraine because they would already own it in that place

00:57:14.740 um vivek believed the original january 6 hoax that's true he's already talked about that yeah what

00:57:21.540 people saw and believed during the fog of war has no it's no use for analysis yes people were had wrong

00:57:31.860 opinions when we didn't know anything same with the pandemic yeah you don't complain in russia oh we

00:57:39.620 would know we would know yeah you don't complain in the newspaper in russia but we would know

00:57:44.820 you know so uh it's going to be fascinating so what i would recommend is that uh tucker actually

00:57:53.940 negotiate a peace deal with putin in ukraine does that sound crazy

00:58:04.660 well well let me ask you this who's going to do it

00:58:07.700 you everybody knows it has to be done am i right 100 of the public knows that russia and ukraine has

00:58:17.220 to talk and they have to negotiate what who else is going to do it biden biden's not biden's not

00:58:25.940 going to do it zelensky no no i'm completely serious i realize it would be illegal but we don't

00:58:34.900 have a real government so something's got to be done now it would be very illegal for a private

00:58:40.820 citizen to negotiate on behalf of america but would it be wrong to suggest what a solution would look like

00:58:50.820 would it be wrong for tucker to invite zelensky and putin uh to be in the same room and work it out

00:58:58.100 it would probably be illegal probably but if it was all transparent i wouldn't care yeah now i'm

00:59:08.420 being a little bit you know just provocative i don't think that tucker should negotiate a peace deal

00:59:13.860 but but honestly no one else is going to do it until until and if you know a trump or republican

00:59:22.100 gets an office no one's going to do it so if you want this thing to end you should be rooting for

00:59:29.220 talker to end it and by the way i think he could because it's not that hard to do just somebody has

00:59:37.060 to be working on it just somebody has to be working on it that's it that's all that's the entire thing

00:59:44.020 somebody has to be doing it because we already know what it looks like russia's going to keep the

00:59:48.660 stuff that they already got because they're not they're never going to give it back so why would

00:59:53.780 he even have much question about it you know there might be something about nato blah blah blah but

01:00:02.020 yeah i think tucker could literally negotiate peace because nobody else is doing it

01:00:08.100 and everybody wants it like if everybody didn't want it then you it would be crazy to say you know some

01:00:14.740 some news pundit guy could negotiate world peace that'd be the dumbest thing in the world but in

01:00:21.300 this very unique case where not only do both sides want it they want it desperately and they also know

01:00:29.620 exactly what it would look like ukraine knows they're not going to get those territories back

01:00:36.100 but imagine imagine this imagine tucker goes in he goes how about this you know i can't negotiate a

01:00:43.540 peace deal but let me just ask you why you wouldn't do this why wouldn't you offer putin why wouldn't

01:00:49.700 you offer to do a referendum for the disputed areas and then decide everything based on the referendum

01:00:58.580 you know make sure it's run by some third party like switzerland or something so it's it's real but if

01:01:03.940 the citizens want to be russian how about they go where you know by majority how about they get that

01:01:09.620 and if there are areas that are still disputed where the population does not want to be russian

01:01:15.300 by a majority we just go with that and then you don't you don't make the rest of ukraine

01:01:22.660 nato because it's too provocative now did i just did i just solve the war yes yes i just solved it

01:01:32.820 now all it would take is for somebody like tucker to just put that idea in putin's head how about this

01:01:40.100 why don't you offer that a independent let's say the un runs a referendum for who should be in charge

01:01:47.220 where and no matter what you don't do any more nato stuff because that's just going to cause the fight

01:01:53.540 now you say victoria newland would not allow that and you're right but don't you want it on the table

01:02:01.860 don't you want it on the table because if you start polling america you're going to get a 90

01:02:09.220 yes on that american voter do you think that russia and ukraine should end the war

01:02:16.260 by polling the citizens and the disputed territories and going with what the will of the people requires

01:02:21.860 we might have the world's simplest war to end except for the money launderers and the criminals who have

01:02:33.620 some other motivation but you would probably need something like an 85 percent public preference

01:02:42.740 before you could overcome whatever corruption is keeping things the way they are now it would just

01:02:47.140 be too embarrassing to go against 85 of the public as well as you know the publics of the disputed

01:02:54.180 territory i mean that'd be hard to go against uh scott means to understand your history please this has

01:03:04.180 been tried that's a terrible comment terrible comment yeah the history does not history does not

01:03:13.380 um tell you what's going to happen in the future history does not repeat itself that is a myth and

01:03:20.820 as soon as you believe that you can't do anything that that eliminates your ability to think oh history

01:03:26.500 repeats itself so there you go yeah no everything's different everything that was true before you had a

01:03:33.620 major war that exhausted both sides just doesn't apply everything that was true before uh russia had total

01:03:41.060 military control of those places it's completely a different situation you know that we we didn't

01:03:48.260 have a failed government where the our government couldn't really be productively involved in anything

01:03:54.500 everything's different so to imagine that what would happen when everything was different

01:03:59.940 is your model for today it doesn't make any sense at all that no i don't need to know that history

01:04:05.860 i know a little bit of it i mean i know enough to know it doesn't matter all right um the post

01:04:13.140 millennium is reporting that uh canada ordered their lockdowns based on fraudulent studies and by

01:04:22.260 fraudulent i think it means that somebody did a study and said that uh during the omicron wave and this is

01:04:30.420 important during the omicron wave when it was already past the most dangerous part canada said they needed

01:04:37.380 to keep the lockdown because of the unvaccinated people were causing the the spread of the omicron 1.00

01:04:46.100 the unvaccinated now the claim and i'm not saying this is true or false because i don't believe any of

01:04:51.780 the science around the pandemic the claim is that the the statistics actually showed that it was the

01:04:58.900 vaccinated people who were spreading the omicron the most and therefore the policy should have been 0.99

01:05:05.300 exactly the opposite and it wasn't justified to lock everything down now the claim that the

01:05:12.900 vaccinated people were spreading it the most do you believe that

01:05:19.060 you do

01:05:28.180 okay

01:05:30.660 all right so here's what i'm not claiming i'm not claiming that the shots worked i want you

01:05:36.980 to hear me very clearly i'm not claiming that they worked no no no i'm claiming that you're believing data

01:05:45.060 that came out of the pandemic and it's pretty stupid looking like if you believe this you're really

01:05:51.140 gullible and by the way you might be right right you might be right but if you believed it because you

01:05:59.060 heard it in the news you really got to check yourself this is not something you should have believed

01:06:04.820 it might be true but don't believe it because the data the data set it

01:06:13.220 here's why almost everywhere where we collect data when it matters

01:06:19.220 we can choose ways to collect it that sell a story and we can choose ways to collect that they give you the wrong answer

01:06:27.380 to me this looks obviously like they collected it and got the wrong answer now if you told me that

01:06:33.140 there was no difference between vaccinated and unvaccinated i'd say oh well that actually sounds

01:06:41.140 reasonable yeah that actually sounds reasonable but if you tell me that the people vaccinated had more

01:06:48.420 spreading i'm not going to believe that like what what are the odds that it made it more likely you're

01:06:55.700 going to spread it do you think it's do you think that maybe the people who are likely to get it and

01:07:01.940 get sick with it and know they had it are the people who are weak to begin with and more likely to be

01:07:07.780 vaccinated you don't think there's any correlation between there's something about the people who got

01:07:13.380 vaccinated such as i'm going to spend a lot of time with other people so i better get vaccinated

01:07:20.740 what do the people who didn't get vaccinated have in common they spend a little less time around other

01:07:27.380 people and if and if you say that's not true i say to you how do you know how do you know if you

01:07:36.820 don't know that that's true or false then what do you then how can you think that this vaccinated

01:07:42.980 people are more likely to spread it this is the most ridiculous bullshit i've ever seen in my life

01:07:49.460 now i'll agree with you that the vaccine the so-called vaccinations didn't stop the spread

01:07:54.500 certainly during omicron it made no difference at all so i'm not supporting the science hear me clearly

01:08:01.620 i'm not backing the science i'm saying that you believe the science so i'm saying that you believe

01:08:08.020 the science why like why would you believe it either way if it told you that the vaccinated

01:08:18.020 were more likely or if it told you the opposite why would you believe it there is no there's no data

01:08:24.340 from that era that's believable and this is opposite of what makes common sense and it's also fairly

01:08:31.220 opposite why this number would be wrong because there's something about the vaccinated population

01:08:36.980 that is substantially different from the unvaccinated they have a very different character

01:08:43.940 i mean if the only thing you did is say city people are more likely to be vaccinated than country

01:08:49.460 people is that true you tell me true or false city people more likely to be vaccinated than rural people

01:08:57.220 yes or no well republicans are more rural city people are more democrat if that's the only thing you knew

01:09:07.940 wouldn't you assume that more democrat city people are vaccinated right now what where are you more likely

01:09:15.300 to catch a virus in the country on your ranch or in the city where you're surrounded by infected

01:09:23.540 people all day long do you think that this study adjusted for the fact that they unvaccinated to have a

01:09:32.980 more less dense lifestyle because they're more rural people if they're republicans

01:09:38.020 now are you are you hearing this for the first time that this number couldn't be trusted because

01:09:46.580 there's something deeply different about the unvaccinated population yeah so don't believe anything

01:09:55.620 about numbers that come out of the the pandemic they're they're all motivated numbers even if they

01:10:00.900 agree with you and even if they're right even if they're right so keep in mind i'm not i'm not

01:10:07.460 eliminating the possibility that it's true but you shouldn't think it's true because there was some

01:10:13.060 study yeah if you think it's true because there was a study or there's somebody corrected the study

01:10:19.940 from wrong to right it's like you learn nothing during the pandemic none of the data is useful

01:10:27.540 at least believable none of it all right uh ian bremer and some others are talking about all of

01:10:34.660 biden's foreign policy wins uh here's here's the list of things which biden could brag about

01:10:40.020 he kept nato strong apparently japan and south korea were having a tough time with each other

01:10:46.740 and uh it was getting tense but uh the biden administration got them to talk and it seems like

01:10:53.140 tensions have gone down so that's good um then also the china tariffs are still in place you know the

01:10:59.540 trump tariffs so not much change there and that's considered good and then uh biden negotiated to get

01:11:06.020 china to stop sending fentanyl uh precursors to the united states so that's all good right right

01:11:14.900 you're not going to disagree with me are you so look at all these wins then he also stopped

01:11:19.940 china from harassing our american aircraft big win there so that's pretty strong look at this list 0.99

01:11:26.660 i'll read it again he kept nato strong he got japan and south korea to get together i think

01:11:31.220 ian bremer said you know that was as substantial or somebody did that was as substantial as the uh

01:11:37.460 the abraham accords you know well it wasn't much in the news but real big deal so big win there for

01:11:44.580 biden and uh those yeah the fentanyl you know stopping stopping the fentanyl that's a pretty big deal

01:11:51.220 and then stopping the chinese harassment of her so that's that's all of his uh big wins it's pretty

01:11:56.420 good huh let's take a look at this keeping nato strong

01:12:04.660 am i wrong or did trump get nato its biggest funding of all time

01:12:12.100 the argument here is that uh trump kept saying is nato useful

01:12:16.020 he should keep saying that he should say that about literally everything we give money to

01:12:24.340 do we still need these bases in other countries maybe but he should ask that question do we still

01:12:31.220 need to give money to this or that i don't even care what this or that is maybe you should ask that

01:12:36.900 question maybe you should put them on their heels and say i'm not so sure i should give you any money

01:12:42.340 you tell me why i should give you some money to me that's a better way to handle things

01:12:47.860 so if somebody's interpreting that biden's got the better handle on things by telling them

01:12:52.260 by telling nato they can have anything they want and we'll back them that feels like stupid

01:12:58.740 so are we are we calling his accomplishment something that in my opinion looks just sort of

01:13:04.660 stupid it's bad negotiating to say nato all good take our money nato all good no you got to make them 0.74

01:13:12.900 prove it you better you better make sure that they're doing something we want to spend our money

01:13:17.540 on and you should have them on their heels all the time that's just basic leadership how about uh

01:13:25.620 that japan and south korea thing see that that's something that no other administration would be able to 0.91

01:13:31.060 handle right how the hell hard was it to get japan and south korea to not start a war i don't think

01:13:41.620 that was the highest level of difficulty if you're going to compare this to the abraham accords

01:13:48.020 seriously seriously now i know that japan and south korea have a you know long long history but

01:13:55.300 i don't feel like the level of difficulty there was too high just sort of had to get them in the

01:14:01.620 same room all right big deal uh then what about the china tariffs well literally that's something trump

01:14:08.420 did and just biden didn't break it but then the part about he got china to agree to stop sending

01:14:14.420 fentanyl you know that didn't happen nothing like that happened it's the same thing that trump did

01:14:21.860 and trump said stop sending and they said oh yeah sure yeah we're trying as hard as we can

01:14:28.020 yeah no nothing is happening on fentanyl so to imagine that you could just throw this in the story

01:14:33.700 like it's his biggest accomplishment none of it's happening it's not even real

01:14:40.580 and what about stopping the chinese harassing american aircraft is that an accomplishment

01:14:46.500 no because they wouldn't have even done it if trump had been president am i wrong trump would have

01:14:55.700 just said once is too many just stop that and i think they would have stopped so these are the

01:15:01.620 this is the weakest list of international uh you know and then it forgets that he's involved in several

01:15:08.820 wars wow anyway uh i've got a solution for the uh the red sea

01:15:22.420 it's kind of obvious so you know the houthis

01:15:27.700 are out there shooting missiles and stuff

01:15:31.220 and we think iran is behind all of it of course

01:15:34.420 iran has some uh ship uh called the bashad that's in that area that we think is uh part of their

01:15:45.780 you know their spy bad operation and that is uh giving some kind of intelligence to the

01:15:52.180 houthis to know what to shoot maybe or doing some other bad things 0.99

01:15:57.540 some have called it a floating armory so it's basically a military you know serious military ship

01:16:03.220 in the red sea yeah but iran has said that the purpose of that ship here's good news is to uh

01:16:10.580 it's an anti-piracy ship so the the point of the ship is to stop the all that piracy

01:16:18.580 meaning the houthis so it's an anti-piracy thing so good news right iran's on our side

01:16:27.380 yeah because here we thought they'd been funding the houthis and they were all happy about the

01:16:31.860 missiles coming and bothering us but no it turns out iran says that they they don't like the piracy

01:16:38.900 either so they got their own ship there to deal with it do you see the solution yet or do i have to

01:16:46.660 connect the dots let me tell you a little story that might allow you to connect the dots do you

01:16:52.980 remember once there was a russian pipeline to europe sort of a gas pipeline and then sadly it blew up

01:17:03.460 it blew up uh sad and then we blamed uh i believe we blamed putin for blowing up his own pipeline

01:17:12.180 well later we found out that might not have been exactly true

01:17:15.540 but it makes me wonder assuming that we take iran at its word and why wouldn't they they've never

01:17:24.260 lied to us before and they say that there is an anti-piracy thing you know who would not like that

01:17:31.300 you know who would really not like an anti-piracy ship right in that red sea area the houthis

01:17:38.340 and imagine if the houthis decided to fire a missile and destroy that ship i mean imagine because that

01:17:47.540 was that's exactly what the houthis do yeah that they'd want to they'd want to get back at anybody 0.99

01:17:54.820 who's trying to stop their piracy and their bad intentions there so i think you know just in the same

01:18:02.420 way that putin destroyed his own pipeline we might find the houthis attacking those iranian ships 0.99

01:18:12.260 and that would be terrible i mean that would be a tragedy so yeah maybe the houthis can take out 0.98

01:18:18.180 those iranian ships and maybe that will solve the problem we've done it before

01:18:24.660 now i don't think that's a good idea but it's funny because we've done it before it would be

01:18:33.460 totally in character for us to sink their ship and say i don't know it's the houthis we're doing what 0.97

01:18:40.420 we can but we can't stop every missile and we and and if you if you believe if you think that's going to

01:18:47.780 happen watch for the cat on the roof look for a story that would be a fake story that says it looks

01:18:57.860 like those houthis fired a missile at the iranian ship but luckily an american ship intercepted the 0.99

01:19:04.900 missile and shot it down because we don't want a war you know you know yeah we don't want a war so

01:19:12.420 we're going to protect that iranian ship from those damn hooty missiles

01:19:19.220 that's the way i'd play it so if you see that it sounds like we're going to protect the iranian

01:19:23.540 ship from a hooty missile we're going to sink that ship that that would be the hint that is coming

01:19:32.260 all right ladies and gentlemen again the finest live stream you've ever seen in your life thanks
