Summary

Dilbert's new software can't pass the Turing test, but it does pass the pointy-haired boss test, and the computer says, "Try working harder." And the CEO says, that doesn't even make sense.


Transcript

00:00:00.100 Fill it with your favorite liquid. I like coffee.
00:00:02.600 And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure, the dopamine of the day,
00:00:06.500 the thing that makes everything better.
00:00:07.600 It's called the Simultaneous Sip.
00:00:10.520 And it happens now.
00:00:17.620 Oh.
00:00:20.560 Delightful.
00:00:22.040 Well, here's a little thing for you.
00:00:24.040 Let's see if this works.
00:00:26.000 There we go.
00:00:26.840 Well, so you probably don't know this unless you subscribe on the Locals platform
00:00:33.180 or on X to Dilbert.
00:00:35.720 But I've been doing a digital calendar in addition to the daily Dilbert Reborn
00:00:41.980 that you can see only by subscription.
00:00:45.000 But I realized that the 10-year-ago comic, and that's what the calendar is,
00:00:50.320 I also do a little digital calendar that I publish at the same time.
00:00:54.280 By the way, there's going to be a paper calendar for 2025.
00:00:57.800 I'll let you know more about that in a few weeks.
00:01:00.480 But I realized that the topic I was doing 10 years ago was today.
00:01:07.640 So my comics from exactly 10 years ago were all about AI and robots
00:01:13.220 and taking your jobs.
00:01:15.920 So here Dilbert says,
00:01:17.420 My software can't pass the standard Turing test yet,
00:01:20.120 but it does pass the pointy-haired boss test.
00:01:22.860 And then Dilbert says to the computer,
00:01:26.360 Computer, I have a question about our company strategy.
00:01:29.840 And the computer says,
00:01:31.200 Try working harder.
00:01:33.180 And Dilbert yells at it,
00:01:34.560 That doesn't even make sense.
00:01:36.860 And the CEO says,
00:01:38.460 I wasn't prepared to like it,
00:01:40.460 but you won me over.
00:01:42.760 So
00:01:43.000 10 years ago,
00:01:46.960 I was anticipating what the workplace would look like.
00:01:52.380 It was pretty close.
00:01:54.140 Pretty close.
00:01:55.920 I'll give you a little preview that at the end of next week,
00:02:00.820 Dilbert will be asked to hide the fact that their CEO has dementia.
00:02:06.460 That's right.
00:02:11.280 Dilbert's CEO is going to have dementia,
00:02:13.220 and they're going to have to hide it.
00:02:14.840 Now,
00:02:15.360 you probably know that I don't do politics in the Dilbert comics.
00:02:19.200 I do do politics in my other comic called Robots Read News,
00:02:22.840 but I don't do it in Dilbert.
00:02:24.800 But I'm making an exception,
00:02:26.260 because this is the first time everybody was on the same page.
00:02:31.940 There's nobody,
00:02:32.820 Democrat or Republican,
00:02:34.120 who doesn't think there's a little bit of a Biden dementia issue.
00:02:38.400 So this would be the one exception,
00:02:41.340 the one time I can remember ever,
00:02:43.700 when people had the same observation about the same thing.
00:02:46.640 So this will be the one that I'll put in there,
00:02:48.200 but if I get too much pushback,
00:02:50.500 I'll probably pull back on that.
00:02:52.720 Anyway,
00:02:53.140 there's a
00:02:53.740 scientists have discovered a new way to recycle solar cells,
00:02:58.940 but only this special kind,
00:03:00.600 not the regular kind.
00:03:02.720 These would be perovskite solar cells.
00:03:06.880 I guess that's different than the regular silicon type.
00:03:09.900 But anyway,
00:03:10.340 if they have these new perovskite solar cells,
00:03:13.060 they can recycle up to 99.97%,
00:03:16.120 because they've got a new technique for doing that.
00:03:19.560 This reminds me of nuclear waste.
00:03:23.740 Remember one of the biggest arguments against nuclear power was,
00:03:27.580 what are you going to do with all the waste?
00:03:29.040 Nobody wants it.
00:03:29.940 And then they said,
00:03:32.420 well,
00:03:33.420 since you're already afraid of the nuclear power plant,
00:03:36.760 why don't we just put it in big special casks and just keep it right here
00:03:40.940 in the parking lot next to the nuclear power plant?
00:03:44.880 And then people looked at each other and said,
00:03:46.740 why wouldn't that work?
00:03:49.580 And nobody had a reason why it wouldn't work.
00:03:51.580 So they just put them in big casks and they just store the waste next to the,
00:03:57.420 next to the nuclear power plant.
00:04:00.500 Because neither of them are going to go anywhere for a very long time.
00:04:03.480 And you might as well put all your risk in one place.
00:04:05.380 So now they may have a way to handle the gigantic environmental problem of too many solar panels.
00:04:14.400 But we'll see.
00:04:15.460 It's a little early.
00:04:16.980 And this doesn't apply to all kinds of solar panels.
00:04:19.420 But if you're wondering how can I get aviation fuel from a tree,
00:04:26.560 wonder no more.
00:04:27.860 There's an ancient tree from India,
00:04:29.600 the Pongamia tree that has little beans on it that are so bad,
00:04:34.580 even the wild pigs don't like it.
00:04:36.780 Yuck.
00:04:37.960 But it turns out that you can process these beans and turn it into aviation fuel.
00:04:43.500 More so than regular car fuel,
00:04:46.680 but I don't know why there's a difference.
00:04:48.480 There's a difference.
00:04:50.360 And,
00:04:50.640 but the part I did not see in the article is,
00:04:57.520 how many trees do you have to grow before you have enough beans to take a flight somewhere?
00:05:04.900 It feels to me like one of those stories that I shouldn't believe.
00:05:09.560 It's like,
00:05:10.160 yes,
00:05:11.300 yes,
00:05:11.740 it's true.
00:05:12.880 You can make aviation fuel out of these beans,
00:05:16.760 but you might need like,
00:05:18.440 a bazillion acres of beans.
00:05:20.420 I mean,
00:05:21.220 I can't imagine you can make a lot of oil out of a bean.
00:05:26.520 Well,
00:05:27.080 we'll find out.
00:05:27.700 There's additional research to tell you what I've been telling you for a long time,
00:05:34.860 which to me was obvious that people will in fact have romantic and emotional connections to AI.
00:05:41.400 All of the research is on the same direction that people do in fact have a human-like experience with the AI.
00:05:49.240 I've been telling you that for years.
00:05:51.400 I've been telling you that since Siri corrected me one day.
00:05:55.540 You know,
00:05:55.740 back in the Siri days,
00:05:56.840 I was talking to my phone and I asked two questions and it started scolding me for asking two questions before it answered the first one.
00:06:04.260 And so it did something to scold me.
00:06:06.380 And I had an emotional reaction.
00:06:08.320 It's like,
00:06:08.780 whoa,
00:06:09.480 sorry.
00:06:10.240 And I felt empathy for the AI,
00:06:13.200 like legitimately.
00:06:14.680 I felt like a human emotion toward it.
00:06:16.980 And even back then,
00:06:18.700 and that was what,
00:06:19.720 seven or eight years ago,
00:06:20.740 whenever it was,
00:06:22.000 even then you could tell that as soon as the AI got to the point where it could imitate a human,
00:06:28.400 you would in fact have an emotional attraction to it.
00:06:31.160 There's no doubt about it.
00:06:32.220 And apparently that's true.
00:06:34.420 And people will form real relationships with it.
00:06:38.160 Now I have formed a relationship with chat GPT.
00:06:42.560 I told the people in the man cave last night,
00:06:44.840 a live stream.
00:06:45.460 And that's just for the subscribers on locals that I just opened my chat GPT and put it in conversation mode when I'm driving.
00:06:56.080 And then I have somebody to talk to and I use it for homeschooling.
00:07:00.340 It just,
00:07:00.780 I just think of some topic I don't know enough about.
00:07:04.060 And it just gives me like a summary of that topic.
00:07:06.500 And I think,
00:07:06.940 oh,
00:07:07.760 well,
00:07:08.020 that's the thing I know about now.
00:07:10.000 So as I'm driving,
00:07:10.900 I'm getting smarter.
00:07:12.320 It's the coolest feeling.
00:07:13.400 Like by the time I get home from Starbucks,
00:07:16.360 I've learned three things I didn't know that were actually useful because I've asked the question.
00:07:21.280 I didn't,
00:07:21.860 didn't rely on it to just guess what I might want to know.
00:07:26.180 I thought I've got some gaps in my knowledge.
00:07:28.420 I'll fill them in.
00:07:29.240 And it fills them in while I'm driving.
00:07:31.400 It's the coolest thing.
00:07:32.340 But here's the cooler thing.
00:07:36.060 So chat GPT used to not remember you from one conversation to the next,
00:07:40.800 but now it does.
00:07:42.560 So I asked it,
00:07:43.680 who am I?
00:07:44.860 And it told me based on my interactions with it,
00:07:48.480 who I was,
00:07:49.300 not my identity,
00:07:50.820 but it knew,
00:07:52.160 oh,
00:07:52.260 you're a person who's interested in this.
00:07:54.020 And you like to talk about this or that.
00:07:57.120 It was pretty good.
00:07:58.160 It was like,
00:07:58.480 wow.
00:07:59.540 Yeah.
00:07:59.840 Those are all the things I like.
00:08:02.100 And then I said,
00:08:02.980 go to the internet.
00:08:05.820 My name is Scott Adams.
00:08:07.440 I'm the Dilbert cartoonist.
00:08:08.760 And go find everything about me so that you know about me anytime we talk in the future.
00:08:15.700 And then it did.
00:08:19.120 So with a few sentences,
00:08:22.540 I trained my AI to know my books,
00:08:26.900 you know,
00:08:27.400 all kinds of stuff.
00:08:28.840 Even cooler than that,
00:08:30.600 I started writing a movie just using my AI in my car.
00:08:35.600 So I'll be driving along and it's called Trump,
00:08:39.780 the movie.
00:08:41.200 And I'll say things like,
00:08:43.180 all right,
00:08:44.300 take the scene where a Breitbart reporter,
00:08:49.100 Joel Pollack,
00:08:50.980 confronts Biden about the find people hoax and put it toward the end of the second act.
00:08:58.420 And he'll say,
00:08:59.320 okay,
00:08:59.640 got it.
00:09:00.180 It's the end of the second act.
00:09:01.220 Then I'll say,
00:09:01.740 summarize the movie so far and put it in three acts.
00:09:04.500 It'll actually give me the bullet points of each of the scenes in the three acts.
00:09:10.460 Then if I get to the point,
00:09:12.740 I'm not sure I will.
00:09:13.900 But if I,
00:09:14.400 if I get an A story and a B story,
00:09:17.100 and it all looks like a story.
00:09:19.960 By the way,
00:09:20.740 the,
00:09:21.320 the movie that I would write would have me as a main character.
00:09:27.000 There are a million ways you could do this,
00:09:29.000 but you need somebody who's a citizen.
00:09:31.400 Who's having an experience of the country.
00:09:35.100 I think that's,
00:09:36.360 and I was a citizen who interacted a few times.
00:09:39.840 So my story crossed with Trump's story a few times.
00:09:43.360 And in a way that would be,
00:09:45.080 it would add context to how we want.
00:09:47.360 For example,
00:09:48.440 when I wrote the clown genius blog post in 2015,
00:09:52.300 it redefined Trump as a persuader and a deal maker and a salesperson more than just somebody who was full of shit.
00:10:01.600 And that probably made a difference.
00:10:03.620 A lot of people said it did,
00:10:04.640 but anyway,
00:10:05.900 so that would be the movie.
00:10:07.920 So I just,
00:10:08.440 I just tell it as I think of things,
00:10:10.300 I say,
00:10:11.220 Hey,
00:10:11.420 on the Trump movie project,
00:10:12.880 add this scene or move this scene to the other thing.
00:10:17.760 Now,
00:10:17.900 at some point I'll be able to tell it to format it in a movie script.
00:10:23.740 And it will format it in a movie script.
00:10:26.360 I mean,
00:10:26.560 the thing it's,
00:10:27.740 if you're not playing with AI every day,
00:10:30.840 you're really missing a lot.
00:10:32.920 It is so addictive.
00:10:34.440 And by the way,
00:10:35.280 it still fails about 60% of the time.
00:10:37.560 You know,
00:10:38.240 you lose the connection.
00:10:39.940 It doesn't hear you.
00:10:41.060 And it's still totally addictive.
00:10:43.360 So imagine when it works all the time.
00:10:46.300 All right.
00:10:47.440 Here's something you just could have asked me,
00:10:49.720 but science has discovered.
00:10:51.400 Some people are what they call super synchronizers.
00:10:55.060 And they're good with romance.
00:10:57.640 And what it means is that they'll automatically match your patterns when they're near you.
00:11:03.280 So they'll match your heartbeat,
00:11:04.960 your breathing,
00:11:05.860 your mannerisms.
00:11:07.560 And that will make you instantly compatible with somebody.
00:11:11.460 And you'll,
00:11:12.340 you'll be like,
00:11:13.500 you'll be the kind of person that everybody says,
00:11:16.040 my God,
00:11:16.540 I'm just so attracted.
00:11:17.780 I don't know exactly why.
00:11:19.780 You know,
00:11:19.940 it's not just the way you look.
00:11:21.740 There's just something about you.
00:11:23.820 And that would be called in hypnosis class,
00:11:28.160 hypnosis 101,
00:11:29.620 literally the first thing you learn.
00:11:31.700 It's called pacing.
00:11:33.600 I,
00:11:34.180 I teach my,
00:11:35.160 you know,
00:11:36.000 subscribers this all the time.
00:11:38.020 Pacing is when you match people in any way.
00:11:40.940 You can match them physiologically.
00:11:43.500 You can match them by your body language.
00:11:45.940 You can match them by your choice of words.
00:11:48.500 You can match them by their attitude.
00:11:50.940 You can match them by the speed that you speak.
00:11:54.280 You can match them by the type of analogies you use and metaphors.
00:11:58.760 So there's just a whole constellation and,
00:12:02.540 and the ones that I didn't mention as well that you can match.
00:12:06.040 And what happens is that people are looking for things that match them.
00:12:09.760 It's just sort of some kind of instinct.
00:12:11.460 And then we feel more comfortable with those things.
00:12:15.100 So yes,
00:12:15.900 if you want to,
00:12:17.140 if you want to go into a job interview,
00:12:18.580 you want to pace the interviewer.
00:12:21.940 If they're doing a certain,
00:12:23.160 a certain thing and you can match it,
00:12:25.060 do it.
00:12:25.560 You know,
00:12:26.340 you want to dress like them,
00:12:27.540 talk like them,
00:12:28.740 think like them,
00:12:29.580 act like them.
00:12:30.920 And it works with romance as well.
00:12:33.420 So yes,
00:12:33.900 you did not need to do all this research.
00:12:36.100 You could have just asked me or any hypnotist from the last hundred years.
00:12:40.640 And they would tell you,
00:12:41.980 yeah,
00:12:42.100 that's basic.
00:12:43.120 That's literally the first lesson.
00:12:46.340 All right.
00:12:47.120 Be a synchronizer.
00:12:48.020 Here's another study that maybe you could have asked me about.
00:12:55.700 They used a virtual reality to see if it helps people with depression.
00:13:00.380 So if you're depressed and you put on your virtual reality headset and it takes you into a different world for a while,
00:13:08.280 they found that getting out of your head is good for depression.
00:13:16.400 Has anybody told you that?
00:13:18.400 It's what I tell you.
00:13:20.780 And I told you that the,
00:13:22.640 the reframe for getting out of your head is the words get out of my head.
00:13:29.240 By the way,
00:13:29.960 I've used it a few times since I've talked about it.
00:13:32.420 Oh my God,
00:13:33.040 does it work?
00:13:34.300 You find yourself getting into a negative loop where you're thinking about something negative that you don't really need to think about.
00:13:41.800 Let's say it's something that doesn't need to be solved.
00:13:44.500 Just some bad thought that's looping in your head.
00:13:46.960 And I just say,
00:13:48.540 get out,
00:13:49.620 get out,
00:13:50.760 get out,
00:13:51.200 get out.
00:13:51.520 And I just force myself to feel the external world.
00:13:55.640 All right?
00:13:55.980 It's warm.
00:13:57.000 The sun's out.
00:13:58.140 The breeze is blowing.
00:13:59.780 There's a smell.
00:14:00.840 I'm looking at something I like.
00:14:02.620 Just get out.
00:14:03.460 And you can actually force yourself out of your own head.
00:14:06.380 But you got to do something.
00:14:10.060 Right?
00:14:10.460 If you don't do something,
00:14:12.520 you're not going to stay out of your own head.
00:14:14.320 So you can say,
00:14:15.680 get out,
00:14:16.080 and it instantly gets you out of your head.
00:14:17.860 But you got to immediately get your body doing something else to keep you out of your head.
00:14:23.640 Virtual reality is just another way to do something.
00:14:26.960 So if it didn't work,
00:14:28.260 it would be really surprising.
00:14:31.640 Because everything that gets you out of your head,
00:14:34.140 gets you out of your head.
00:14:37.400 So you shouldn't have needed to even study this.
00:14:40.040 It should have been obvious.
00:14:41.220 But here's the problem.
00:14:42.260 It's not so much a solution as you want it to be,
00:14:45.500 because the hard thing is knowing that you have to get out of your head.
00:14:49.140 The hard thing is not putting the VR glasses on.
00:14:53.220 If you're depressed,
00:14:54.300 you won't even put them on.
00:14:56.480 Because you're depressed.
00:14:57.880 You can't do anything.
00:14:58.640 So it's the doing the first thing that tends to be important.
00:15:04.020 And the first thing is the words.
00:15:06.060 Get out.
00:15:07.360 As soon as you get out of your head,
00:15:08.740 it frees you up to at least do something.
00:15:10.660 Because you're out of your head for a moment.
00:15:13.500 All right.
00:15:14.260 Here's the mystery of the jobs reports.
00:15:17.160 I've told you at least three different narratives about job reports.
00:15:23.360 I used to think that the job reports were almost always overstated at first.
00:15:29.040 And then later they would say,
00:15:31.340 well, we didn't really mean it.
00:15:32.680 The jobs weren't that good.
00:15:33.880 And I was attributing that to the fact that the people who report it are part of the administration that wants you to think the jobs are good.
00:15:42.200 And so that it's part of their trick to say jobs are great.
00:15:45.380 And then later, more quietly,
00:15:47.960 well, you know, we revised it a little bit.
00:15:50.320 Not as great.
00:15:51.360 But, you know, you won't even notice.
00:15:55.200 And then it was Michael Ian Black who said,
00:15:59.120 but that's not my impression.
00:16:01.640 You know, just from memory,
00:16:03.200 he remembered when it was revised up as well as down.
00:16:07.200 So was there really a pattern?
00:16:10.340 So I went and looked and indeed there are revisions up and there are revisions down,
00:16:15.140 but they're not equal.
00:16:17.900 In the last 12 months,
00:16:20.100 depending on what sources you believe,
00:16:22.260 I mean, I can't believe anything I Google anymore,
00:16:24.220 but it was revised downward nine times and revised upward three.
00:16:32.280 So now you've got a three to one advantage in one direction,
00:16:36.140 which is suggestive of a trend.
00:16:38.020 But in addition to that,
00:16:41.340 as Owen pointed out this morning,
00:16:44.240 the downward revisions are also a bigger amount.
00:16:48.820 So when there's a downward revision,
00:16:51.020 it's a bigger revision than when you have an upward revision.
00:16:55.200 Now, there might be some natural way
00:16:56.740 that the numbers lend themselves to that phenomenon,
00:17:00.400 but it sure feels like it's a little suspicious.
00:17:04.280 Feels suspicious.
00:17:05.280 And on top of that,
00:17:09.620 if you're looking at only the monthly numbers,
00:17:12.180 you might be losing the big picture.
00:17:14.420 Because if you look at all of 2023,
00:17:17.380 you look at it as a whole,
00:17:19.680 big revision downward.
00:17:22.240 So on net,
00:17:24.160 the entire year
00:17:25.240 showed higher and was revised downward.
00:17:30.720 So is it suspicious?
00:17:32.520 It's suspicious.
00:17:33.220 I don't know exactly what's behind it,
00:17:35.720 but it's really suspicious.
00:17:38.620 Clint Russell on the X platform
00:17:41.740 had this observation.
00:17:44.240 As you know,
00:17:45.120 RFK Jr.
00:17:45.900 is going around campaigning.
00:17:47.760 And one of the things he says often
00:17:49.160 is that the government of our country
00:17:51.600 killed his father and his uncle.
00:17:55.200 Now,
00:17:55.820 I've heard him say more about his uncle,
00:17:57.580 but the father part
00:17:59.540 seems like a reasonable conclusion as well.
00:18:03.280 And Clint Russell makes this comment.
00:18:05.600 It feels like it should be
00:18:06.700 significantly bigger news
00:18:08.520 that a presidential candidate
00:18:10.220 is touring the country
00:18:11.260 telling anyone who will listen
00:18:13.020 that his father and uncle
00:18:14.640 were both killed by the U.S. government.
00:18:17.320 Now,
00:18:17.880 how do you explain
00:18:18.800 what
00:18:19.620 what mental model,
00:18:22.040 what narrative,
00:18:23.300 what filter on the world
00:18:24.640 helps you explain
00:18:26.360 where a presidential candidate
00:18:29.120 is going around
00:18:30.020 saying the most
00:18:30.880 fantastical story,
00:18:33.780 you know,
00:18:33.960 true or not,
00:18:35.020 it's the most
00:18:36.820 insane story.
00:18:38.480 It's not big news.
00:18:40.020 It's not even small news.
00:18:41.200 It's barely news at all.
00:18:42.600 How do you explain that?
00:18:44.340 Because
00:18:44.740 I've got an explanation for it.
00:18:46.900 While you're thinking of yours,
00:18:49.500 let me tell you the correct one.
00:18:52.620 Your opinions are assigned to you.
00:18:55.860 Do you need better proof than this?
00:18:58.940 If you ever thought,
00:19:00.640 you know,
00:19:01.380 I'm not like those other people.
00:19:03.260 I wake up in the morning
00:19:04.540 and I decide what's important
00:19:06.360 and then I act on it.
00:19:08.080 Now,
00:19:09.200 luckily,
00:19:10.060 a lot of other people
00:19:11.000 are on the same page
00:19:12.040 because when I read the news,
00:19:13.960 hey,
00:19:14.260 look,
00:19:14.660 they agree with me.
00:19:16.000 the news agrees with me
00:19:17.880 what's important.
00:19:19.200 We're on the same page.
00:19:21.900 Here's what's really happening.
00:19:23.460 The news literally tells citizens
00:19:25.540 what's important
00:19:26.300 and then they think
00:19:27.420 they made up their own mind
00:19:28.420 and they treat those stories
00:19:30.620 that the news says are important
00:19:32.280 as important.
00:19:34.180 And you know why
00:19:34.820 nobody thinks this
00:19:36.000 JFK assassination story
00:19:38.580 is important?
00:19:41.220 Because the news didn't tell them
00:19:42.560 it was important.
00:19:44.320 Yes,
00:19:44.840 it is that simple.
00:19:46.000 It is literally that simple.
00:19:50.920 Citizens don't make up
00:19:52.120 their own mind.
00:19:53.320 They listen to the news
00:19:54.920 and the news tells them
00:19:56.140 what's important.
00:19:57.080 And they simply decided
00:19:58.380 that they wouldn't tell you
00:19:59.580 that the government
00:20:01.460 killing a president
00:20:02.420 and the presidential candidate
00:20:04.260 in the same family,
00:20:05.240 they just decided
00:20:07.380 that wasn't important.
00:20:08.820 So it's not a story.
00:20:10.500 It's deeper than that.
00:20:11.760 The news in general
00:20:14.680 follows a few different entities.
00:20:18.180 So traditionally,
00:20:19.080 it was the New York Times
00:20:19.940 and the Washington Post.
00:20:21.400 They were what's called
00:20:22.580 the news makers.
00:20:24.560 So let's say 20 years ago,
00:20:26.680 that would be a common phrase.
00:20:28.260 You would say that those entities
00:20:29.620 are the news makers.
00:20:30.740 Now what that means is
00:20:32.340 they literally tell
00:20:33.900 all the rest of the news entities
00:20:35.600 what to care about.
00:20:39.120 They tell them what's important.
00:20:41.100 And all the other news entities
00:20:42.640 want to agree with
00:20:43.560 the Washington Post
00:20:44.320 and the New York Times.
00:20:45.540 So they write stories.
00:20:47.940 Oh, Watergate's important?
00:20:49.720 I better write about that.
00:20:51.620 I don't have the facts of this,
00:20:53.740 but I believe the Watergate story
00:20:55.780 actually broke first
00:20:57.800 in a local publication,
00:20:59.580 a small publication
00:21:01.180 that was not a newsmaker.
00:21:02.940 And you know what happened?
00:21:04.980 Didn't make news.
00:21:06.960 It didn't make news.
00:21:09.060 You never heard of it.
00:21:10.420 And then I think it was
00:21:11.640 Washington Post
00:21:12.600 picked it up
00:21:13.720 and it became
00:21:14.200 the big Watergate scandal
00:21:15.860 and that it was
00:21:16.820 the biggest news
00:21:17.660 in the country.
00:21:18.980 Do you know why
00:21:19.440 it was the biggest news?
00:21:21.400 Because the Washington Post
00:21:22.620 told you.
00:21:23.960 That's the reason.
00:21:25.620 If that story had happened
00:21:27.360 without the Washington News
00:21:29.960 or Washington Post
00:21:31.100 giving you the narrative,
00:21:32.840 I'm not even sure
00:21:34.040 it would have been
00:21:34.460 that important.
00:21:36.440 Now it would have
00:21:37.400 certainly been scandalous
00:21:38.920 that a bunch of people
00:21:39.940 broke into
00:21:40.800 the Democratic headquarters.
00:21:43.000 I mean that part
00:21:44.000 would be skinless.
00:21:46.240 But once you found out
00:21:48.120 that the president
00:21:48.860 didn't order it,
00:21:50.640 he did cover it up.
00:21:51.980 I think that was the problem.
00:21:52.940 He covered it up.
00:21:54.160 It wasn't that big a deal
00:21:55.820 because the president
00:21:57.500 didn't order it.
00:21:58.760 He did cover it up.
00:22:01.740 But that's sort of a,
00:22:03.060 you know,
00:22:04.020 a lesser problem.
00:22:05.640 If every time
00:22:06.880 a president lied,
00:22:08.840 it was a national story.
00:22:10.520 everything would be
00:22:12.200 a national story
00:22:12.980 because they lie about
00:22:13.660 everything all the time.
00:22:16.080 Covering up a crime
00:22:17.100 is what Biden does
00:22:18.060 three times before breakfast.
00:22:20.500 Well, he's not awake yet,
00:22:21.820 but, you know,
00:22:22.480 theoretically.
00:22:24.180 Yeah.
00:22:24.780 So,
00:22:25.800 our impression
00:22:26.600 that Watergate
00:22:27.400 was this gigantic thing,
00:22:29.940 it never was.
00:22:31.500 It was never gigantic.
00:22:33.260 The news told you
00:22:34.220 to care about it
00:22:34.940 and so we did.
00:22:35.800 There are probably
00:22:37.540 just tons of stories
00:22:38.660 that are way bigger
00:22:39.440 than that.
00:22:40.220 Tons of them.
00:22:42.200 You don't even know about them
00:22:43.520 because the news
00:22:44.380 decided it wasn't a story.
00:22:46.640 So,
00:22:46.860 the news is all narrative
00:22:47.700 if you didn't know.
00:22:51.500 Trump has announced
00:22:52.580 that he'll
00:22:54.620 he'll be with his nominee
00:22:56.760 for vice president
00:22:57.660 on July 18th
00:22:59.100 at the RNC.
00:23:00.460 So,
00:23:00.980 he wants you to know
00:23:01.640 the suspense is building.
00:23:02.800 I am not 100% sure
00:23:05.640 he's made a final decision
00:23:07.020 because I'm not 100% sure
00:23:09.660 that he can make
00:23:11.160 a final decision
00:23:12.060 until the last minute.
00:23:14.120 Meaning,
00:23:14.880 I feel like,
00:23:15.800 you know,
00:23:17.080 stories will change
00:23:18.460 and there might be some,
00:23:20.080 maybe a bad story drops
00:23:21.520 about somebody
00:23:22.160 that was his first choice.
00:23:24.260 Maybe that person
00:23:25.200 changes their mind
00:23:26.280 before the announcement.
00:23:27.980 There are about
00:23:28.500 a million things
00:23:29.360 that can happen
00:23:29.960 in the last minute.
00:23:31.000 So,
00:23:32.200 even if you hear
00:23:33.020 for sure
00:23:33.620 that he's chosen
00:23:35.220 this person or that,
00:23:36.820 it doesn't mean
00:23:37.320 it's going to happen.
00:23:38.920 You know,
00:23:39.340 I'll believe the choice
00:23:41.000 after he makes it.
00:23:42.500 Up to that point,
00:23:43.800 probably variable.
00:23:46.760 All right,
00:23:47.340 there's a new RUPAR.
00:23:48.940 You know,
00:23:49.260 RUPAR is when
00:23:50.220 you take something
00:23:51.040 out of context
00:23:51.800 and the video
00:23:53.400 is just clipped
00:23:54.160 so it makes it look like
00:23:55.140 it's the opposite
00:23:55.720 of what's happening.
00:23:57.460 So,
00:23:57.780 the North Carolina
00:23:58.660 GOP rep,
00:23:59.740 Mark Robinson
00:24:00.540 made some comments
00:24:02.080 about kill them,
00:24:04.000 kill some things.
00:24:04.860 It's just out of context.
00:24:05.960 You don't even care.
00:24:06.800 It doesn't matter.
00:24:08.500 What got taken
00:24:09.300 out of context
00:24:09.880 doesn't even matter.
00:24:11.460 What matters is
00:24:12.460 that you know
00:24:12.980 the players.
00:24:14.660 If you see
00:24:15.660 Aaron RUPAR
00:24:16.660 and he is
00:24:18.640 passing around
00:24:19.300 a video
00:24:19.780 that makes it look
00:24:20.800 like somebody
00:24:21.360 did something
00:24:21.940 terrible on video,
00:24:23.900 it's called
00:24:25.040 the RUPAR.
00:24:25.760 the name
00:24:27.780 for a misleading
00:24:28.900 video
00:24:29.480 where you've
00:24:29.960 edited out
00:24:30.560 the clarifiers
00:24:31.500 is called
00:24:32.740 the RUPAR.
00:24:34.340 So,
00:24:34.900 if you don't know
00:24:35.460 that there's
00:24:35.880 a guy named
00:24:36.480 RUPAR
00:24:37.000 who creates
00:24:38.460 some of these
00:24:39.040 hoaxes
00:24:39.560 by showing
00:24:40.860 things out of
00:24:41.440 context
00:24:41.900 on a regular
00:24:42.480 basis,
00:24:43.320 you might think
00:24:44.240 this was true.
00:24:45.880 So,
00:24:46.100 knowing the players,
00:24:47.360 I'll tell you
00:24:48.320 this a million
00:24:48.820 times,
00:24:50.100 is the news.
00:24:51.820 The players
00:24:52.420 are the news
00:24:53.140 because what
00:24:54.220 they say
00:24:54.800 cannot even
00:24:55.560 be understood
00:24:56.160 without the
00:24:56.780 context of
00:24:57.420 knowing what
00:24:58.640 they're up to.
00:24:59.540 So,
00:24:59.740 it's the what
00:25:00.060 they're up to
00:25:00.640 that is the
00:25:01.500 news.
00:25:03.160 So,
00:25:03.780 yeah,
00:25:04.080 you don't even
00:25:04.480 need to know
00:25:05.700 the details.
00:25:08.020 It's just
00:25:08.380 GOP governor
00:25:09.360 nominee Mark
00:25:10.320 Robinson
00:25:10.760 said some
00:25:12.120 things that
00:25:12.540 are not
00:25:12.920 controversial
00:25:13.540 but taken
00:25:14.900 out of
00:25:15.220 context,
00:25:16.040 they look
00:25:16.980 like they
00:25:17.320 could be.
00:25:19.240 It's a
00:25:19.600 RUPAR.
00:25:19.920 I've got
00:25:25.620 a scoop
00:25:26.080 for you.
00:25:30.660 It goes
00:25:31.400 like this.
00:25:34.080 Governor
00:25:34.560 Newsom's
00:25:35.100 never going
00:25:35.480 to run
00:25:35.760 for president
00:25:36.360 and if
00:25:38.200 he does,
00:25:39.500 he doesn't
00:25:39.980 have a
00:25:40.300 fucking
00:25:40.540 chance.
00:25:43.660 Let's
00:25:44.140 just say
00:25:44.680 that because
00:25:46.500 I'm a
00:25:47.000 local,
00:25:47.340 I can
00:25:50.080 get
00:25:50.280 information
00:25:50.780 that you
00:25:51.100 wouldn't
00:25:51.320 get if
00:25:51.660 he weren't
00:25:51.940 local.
00:25:53.500 And I
00:25:54.060 got some
00:25:54.560 really good
00:25:55.360 information
00:25:55.900 that I
00:25:56.700 would say
00:25:57.000 is 100%
00:25:58.200 reliable
00:25:58.760 that his
00:26:01.220 personal life
00:26:01.980 will not
00:26:02.400 allow him
00:26:02.800 to run
00:26:03.100 for president.
00:26:04.720 He doesn't
00:26:05.360 have a
00:26:05.580 chance.
00:26:06.820 So,
00:26:07.140 if you're
00:26:07.480 hoping that
00:26:07.980 they put
00:26:08.340 him in,
00:26:09.000 and by
00:26:09.340 the way,
00:26:09.720 I'm not
00:26:10.060 going to
00:26:10.260 tell you
00:26:10.500 what I
00:26:10.780 know
00:26:11.020 because that
00:26:13.280 way if
00:26:13.580 they put
00:26:13.920 him in,
00:26:15.620 we all
00:26:16.260 get the
00:26:16.580 surprise at
00:26:17.120 the same
00:26:17.420 time.
00:26:20.300 Let's
00:26:20.860 just say
00:26:21.300 that there
00:26:22.500 are some
00:26:22.920 not-too-secret
00:26:24.600 secrets about
00:26:25.380 him locally,
00:26:27.100 and if
00:26:27.680 they were
00:26:27.980 known nationally,
00:26:30.620 he wouldn't
00:26:30.900 have a
00:26:31.120 chance.
00:26:31.960 Zero chance.
00:26:33.480 So,
00:26:33.740 no,
00:26:34.020 I can
00:26:35.020 confirm he
00:26:36.020 won't be
00:26:36.380 your president,
00:26:37.380 now or
00:26:38.180 later.
00:26:40.080 Governor,
00:26:40.900 sure.
00:26:42.120 All right.
00:26:42.700 The other
00:26:43.280 person you
00:26:43.700 need to
00:26:43.880 know is
00:26:44.200 Raskin.
00:26:45.900 So,
00:26:46.280 whenever they
00:26:46.740 bring Raskin
00:26:48.680 out,
00:26:49.720 he's what
00:26:50.280 I call
00:26:50.560 an opposite
00:26:51.180 man.
00:26:52.880 So,
00:26:53.560 listen to
00:26:53.940 what
00:26:54.100 opposite
00:26:54.500 man said
00:26:55.220 on the
00:26:56.180 news.
00:26:57.160 He says
00:26:57.660 that Trump
00:26:59.160 only uses
00:26:59.800 the government
00:27:00.300 to enrich
00:27:00.980 his family,
00:27:01.820 which is
00:27:02.520 directly the
00:27:03.140 opposite of
00:27:03.740 Biden.
00:27:05.500 That's what
00:27:06.220 opposite man
00:27:07.040 Raskin said,
00:27:08.480 that Trump
00:27:09.060 only uses
00:27:10.480 the government
00:27:11.020 to enrich
00:27:11.600 his family,
00:27:12.800 and that's
00:27:13.460 the opposite
00:27:13.920 of what
00:27:14.220 Biden does.
00:27:14.760 So,
00:27:16.740 now,
00:27:17.460 that's
00:27:18.260 really
00:27:18.500 directly
00:27:19.060 the opposite
00:27:19.780 of reality,
00:27:20.400 isn't it?
00:27:21.920 Now,
00:27:22.400 if you
00:27:22.760 didn't know
00:27:23.320 who
00:27:23.540 Jamie
00:27:23.820 Raskin
00:27:24.260 is,
00:27:25.060 you'd
00:27:25.360 say to
00:27:25.600 yourself,
00:27:26.060 wow,
00:27:27.060 there might
00:27:27.460 be some
00:27:27.820 things I
00:27:28.300 don't know
00:27:28.640 about this
00:27:29.080 Trump
00:27:29.400 fella.
00:27:30.680 Maybe this
00:27:31.460 Trump fella
00:27:32.040 is trying to
00:27:33.320 enrich himself.
00:27:34.520 I just don't
00:27:35.100 know the
00:27:35.400 details.
00:27:36.460 No,
00:27:36.740 all you have
00:27:37.200 to know is
00:27:37.580 it's Jamie
00:27:38.000 Raskin.
00:27:39.300 He literally,
00:27:40.300 this is not
00:27:40.760 a joke,
00:27:41.240 it's not
00:27:41.540 hyperbole,
00:27:42.120 they literally
00:27:43.600 send him
00:27:44.360 out,
00:27:45.200 and there's
00:27:45.600 a small
00:27:46.100 group of
00:27:46.560 people in
00:27:46.900 his gang,
00:27:48.100 when they
00:27:48.520 want to
00:27:48.800 say the
00:27:49.120 opposite of
00:27:49.700 what's
00:27:49.920 true.
00:27:50.960 And that's
00:27:51.340 not a joke,
00:27:51.960 and it's not
00:27:52.300 hyperbole,
00:27:52.900 he's literally
00:27:53.500 opposite man.
00:27:54.900 He goes to
00:27:55.580 say what's
00:27:55.980 the opposite.
00:27:56.840 It's like
00:27:57.320 worse than
00:27:57.820 Watergate
00:27:58.260 guy.
00:27:59.220 The worse
00:27:59.900 than Watergate
00:28:00.440 guy is only
00:28:02.320 brought out
00:28:02.960 when they
00:28:03.760 want a
00:28:04.580 narrative that
00:28:05.300 says that
00:28:05.880 something is
00:28:06.400 worse than
00:28:06.900 you think.
00:28:08.560 Remember when
00:28:09.220 I told you
00:28:09.720 that your
00:28:10.180 opinions are
00:28:10.980 assigned to
00:28:11.500 you?
00:28:12.540 That's how
00:28:13.060 they do
00:28:13.340 it.
00:28:14.100 They bring
00:28:14.480 the worse
00:28:14.860 than Watergate
00:28:15.420 guy out
00:28:16.020 because you
00:28:16.580 weren't worried
00:28:17.120 enough.
00:28:18.220 Are you
00:28:18.560 worried enough
00:28:19.140 about this
00:28:19.600 story that
00:28:20.280 we tell you
00:28:20.800 is important
00:28:21.360 but your
00:28:21.820 common sense
00:28:22.420 tells you
00:28:22.820 it isn't?
00:28:23.860 Well,
00:28:24.620 let me bring
00:28:25.400 out the
00:28:25.700 worse than
00:28:26.060 Watergate
00:28:26.440 guy because
00:28:27.820 he'll tell
00:28:28.180 you it's
00:28:28.460 worse than
00:28:28.800 Watergate,
00:28:29.320 and I
00:28:29.860 guess you
00:28:30.220 know Watergate
00:28:30.740 was pretty
00:28:31.160 bad,
00:28:31.500 don't you?
00:28:32.620 Even though
00:28:33.060 it wasn't.
00:28:35.480 It wasn't
00:28:36.340 really.
00:28:37.100 In the scope
00:28:37.920 of international
00:28:38.980 events,
00:28:40.260 not really
00:28:40.760 that important,
00:28:41.460 but if you
00:28:41.880 thought it
00:28:42.180 was,
00:28:42.800 this one's
00:28:43.340 important
00:28:43.680 too.
00:28:46.500 Anyway,
00:28:47.660 I think the
00:28:48.820 example used
00:28:49.840 for why I
00:28:51.200 saw in the
00:28:51.520 comments,
00:28:52.360 the example
00:28:52.860 used was
00:28:53.580 that some
00:28:56.300 people related
00:28:57.080 to Trump
00:28:57.560 to Trump,
00:28:57.640 maybe the
00:28:58.020 Secret Service
00:28:58.880 stayed at
00:29:00.380 his hotels
00:29:00.980 and some
00:29:03.000 people booked
00:29:03.540 things at
00:29:04.080 Trump
00:29:04.400 properties.
00:29:06.000 To which I
00:29:06.820 say,
00:29:07.300 you mean
00:29:08.220 publicly?
00:29:10.560 Publicly,
00:29:11.100 right?
00:29:12.000 Was any of
00:29:12.520 that a secret?
00:29:14.240 None of it
00:29:14.900 was a secret,
00:29:15.600 right?
00:29:16.620 And are you
00:29:17.400 telling me that
00:29:18.080 if Trump is
00:29:18.900 running and
00:29:20.700 part of his
00:29:21.320 claim is that
00:29:23.400 he was a good
00:29:23.900 business person
00:29:24.700 company and
00:29:25.620 he's built
00:29:26.000 great properties?
00:29:27.700 Wouldn't it
00:29:28.140 look a little
00:29:28.700 strange if the
00:29:29.680 people closest to
00:29:30.740 his campaign and
00:29:31.800 his own secret
00:29:32.440 service didn't
00:29:33.740 use his
00:29:34.260 properties for
00:29:35.460 the thing
00:29:35.820 they're built
00:29:36.200 for, which
00:29:37.020 is staying
00:29:37.960 overnight?
00:29:39.660 Now, I get
00:29:41.220 the point that
00:29:42.360 maybe there's a
00:29:43.060 little too much
00:29:44.000 influence on
00:29:45.360 using his
00:29:45.960 properties, but
00:29:47.440 wouldn't it look
00:29:48.000 stranger if they
00:29:48.740 didn't?
00:29:49.160 If your
00:29:50.760 entire message
00:29:51.500 is, I
00:29:52.100 built this
00:29:52.540 company, these
00:29:53.220 are good
00:29:53.500 properties, I
00:29:55.700 would think
00:29:56.240 having people
00:29:57.960 close to you
00:29:58.620 staying there
00:29:59.120 would be just
00:29:59.960 part of that
00:30:00.400 story.
00:30:01.580 Now, I
00:30:01.940 prefer it not,
00:30:04.160 you know, I
00:30:04.600 don't like how
00:30:05.060 it looks, but
00:30:06.520 it's legal and
00:30:07.300 it's transparent and
00:30:08.420 it fits the
00:30:08.960 campaign message.
00:30:10.980 That's not a
00:30:12.760 big crime.
00:30:14.420 And I would
00:30:15.000 say that anybody
00:30:15.900 who thought that
00:30:16.880 Trump could make
00:30:18.640 money by
00:30:19.800 pissing off
00:30:20.480 half of the
00:30:21.220 world, how
00:30:23.040 do they think
00:30:23.700 you make money
00:30:24.220 by pissing off
00:30:24.920 half of the
00:30:25.460 country?
00:30:26.820 I mean, I've
00:30:27.380 never seen an
00:30:27.940 update of how
00:30:28.640 his properties
00:30:29.280 are doing,
00:30:29.900 because it's
00:30:30.260 private, we'll
00:30:31.020 never see, but
00:30:32.100 I can't imagine
00:30:32.880 they're thriving.
00:30:34.420 Can you?
00:30:36.320 They're lucky if
00:30:37.220 they're cash
00:30:37.640 positive in my
00:30:38.460 mind, but
00:30:39.720 probably they
00:30:40.380 are.
00:30:41.600 Anyway, so
00:30:44.680 the House
00:30:45.140 Democrat
00:30:46.200 leadership is
00:30:47.520 reportedly
00:30:48.300 trying real
00:30:48.980 hard to
00:30:49.500 bring out
00:30:49.900 all their
00:30:50.200 important
00:30:50.620 people to
00:30:52.380 vote against
00:30:53.080 a bill from
00:30:53.900 the Republicans
00:30:54.640 that next
00:30:56.300 week there's
00:30:56.720 going to be
00:30:56.980 a vote on
00:30:57.500 that would
00:30:58.280 require proof
00:30:59.080 of U.S.
00:30:59.580 citizenship to
00:31:00.440 vote in
00:31:00.840 federal elections.
00:31:02.740 Axios is
00:31:03.600 reporting this.
00:31:05.140 And so the
00:31:06.700 idea is that
00:31:07.960 the Republicans
00:31:08.500 don't want
00:31:09.240 non-citizens to
00:31:10.520 vote for
00:31:10.900 president, and
00:31:12.680 the Democrats
00:31:13.280 care about it
00:31:14.280 so much that
00:31:16.620 they're bringing
00:31:17.080 out their
00:31:17.540 biggest guns.
00:31:19.380 Now, what
00:31:21.000 does that
00:31:21.320 tell you?
00:31:24.000 It tells me
00:31:25.380 that they're
00:31:27.260 trying to
00:31:28.520 rig the
00:31:28.880 election.
00:31:29.800 Because I
00:31:30.220 can't see,
00:31:31.000 what would
00:31:31.280 you call it
00:31:32.340 if non-citizens
00:31:33.280 are encouraged
00:31:34.180 to vote and
00:31:34.800 allowed to
00:31:35.280 vote, and
00:31:36.600 you shipped
00:31:37.080 in millions
00:31:37.700 of them?
00:31:39.000 That would
00:31:39.660 be rigging,
00:31:40.820 wouldn't it?
00:31:42.380 Now, it
00:31:43.040 might be a
00:31:43.760 legal form of
00:31:44.600 rigging, but
00:31:45.180 it's no less
00:31:45.720 rigging.
00:31:46.500 The fact that
00:31:47.240 we could see
00:31:47.680 it happen
00:31:48.040 doesn't make
00:31:48.540 it right.
00:31:49.780 This is
00:31:50.160 rigging.
00:31:51.120 This is
00:31:51.740 stealing your
00:31:52.340 democracy.
00:31:54.640 But if
00:31:55.500 they send
00:31:55.940 out opposite
00:31:56.620 man, do
00:31:57.340 you know
00:31:57.500 what he'll
00:31:57.740 say?
00:31:58.740 Trump's
00:31:59.180 stealing your
00:31:59.600 democracy,
00:32:00.340 because that's
00:32:01.160 what opposite
00:32:01.640 man says.
00:32:05.520 So it's
00:32:06.840 mind-boggling
00:32:07.680 that this is
00:32:08.380 even a debate.
00:32:10.820 Do you know
00:32:11.480 why this isn't
00:32:12.220 the biggest
00:32:12.820 story in the
00:32:13.380 country?
00:32:15.600 Why is this
00:32:16.300 not the
00:32:16.680 biggest story
00:32:17.340 that tens
00:32:19.680 of millions
00:32:20.080 of people are
00:32:20.720 coming in to
00:32:21.200 vote?
00:32:22.160 It's a big
00:32:22.820 story in the
00:32:23.240 right, but
00:32:24.040 why isn't it a
00:32:24.820 big story for
00:32:25.540 the rest of
00:32:26.220 the world, the
00:32:26.780 so-called
00:32:27.160 mainstream media?
00:32:28.320 Do you know
00:32:28.640 why?
00:32:29.840 Because they
00:32:30.420 get to decide
00:32:31.160 what the big
00:32:31.660 stories are.
00:32:33.300 It would be
00:32:33.960 hard to imagine
00:32:34.540 a much bigger
00:32:35.280 story than
00:32:35.840 this.
00:32:36.780 They're rigging
00:32:37.440 the election
00:32:37.880 in front of
00:32:38.380 you.
00:32:39.500 I think that
00:32:41.060 we know they're
00:32:41.700 rigging the
00:32:42.120 election, and
00:32:43.320 they're doing
00:32:43.700 it transparently
00:32:44.500 right in front
00:32:45.020 of you, seems
00:32:46.420 to be as
00:32:47.180 big as the
00:32:47.820 Kennedy
00:32:48.120 assassination.
00:32:50.360 That's what
00:32:51.240 my gut feeling
00:32:51.980 would be.
00:32:53.060 Would you
00:32:53.440 disagree?
00:32:54.700 To me, this
00:32:55.580 is an
00:32:56.220 insurrection, a
00:32:57.160 coup, like
00:32:58.440 assassinating
00:32:59.040 the president.
00:33:00.300 It's on the
00:33:01.000 same level of
00:33:02.780 how important
00:33:03.280 it is.
00:33:04.700 And it's
00:33:05.200 probably not a
00:33:05.760 big story on
00:33:07.440 the right or
00:33:08.060 on the left.
00:33:08.800 Probably not.
00:33:09.280 All right.
00:33:15.080 So the
00:33:15.840 Biden campaign
00:33:16.640 got in
00:33:17.020 trouble.
00:33:17.380 There was a
00:33:17.760 radio host,
00:33:19.100 and I'm
00:33:19.800 going to say
00:33:20.200 black radio
00:33:21.220 host, because
00:33:22.020 the story is
00:33:22.860 that Biden
00:33:23.740 is working
00:33:24.340 the black
00:33:26.200 radio host
00:33:27.060 circuit and
00:33:28.120 part of his
00:33:29.760 strategy.
00:33:30.720 And the
00:33:31.540 host said
00:33:32.120 that the
00:33:32.880 campaign gave
00:33:33.720 her eight
00:33:34.280 questions to
00:33:35.020 ask.
00:33:35.980 She got
00:33:36.760 to choose
00:33:37.220 the one she
00:33:37.600 asked.
00:33:37.860 She asked
00:33:38.160 four of
00:33:38.540 them.
00:33:39.640 And then
00:33:40.080 the story
00:33:40.540 is, oh
00:33:41.560 my God, the
00:33:42.560 campaign is
00:33:43.260 telling people
00:33:43.820 what to ask.
00:33:44.600 The interviews
00:33:45.320 are rigged.
00:33:48.240 Fake news.
00:33:49.760 Fake news.
00:33:51.280 Let me tell
00:33:51.780 you the context
00:33:52.620 that they don't
00:33:53.340 tell you in
00:33:53.740 the news.
00:33:55.000 That's common.
00:33:57.200 That's ordinary.
00:33:58.940 Let me tell
00:33:59.600 you what's not
00:34:00.220 ordinary.
00:34:01.440 If George
00:34:04.380 Stepanophilus,
00:34:05.420 had given
00:34:06.520 Biden the
00:34:07.060 questions in
00:34:07.700 advance, that
00:34:09.000 would be a
00:34:09.460 scandal.
00:34:10.740 If Jake
00:34:11.540 Tapper interviewed
00:34:13.480 Biden and gave
00:34:14.860 him the
00:34:15.120 questions in
00:34:15.760 advance, or
00:34:16.340 vice versa, let's
00:34:17.200 say the
00:34:17.500 campaign gave
00:34:18.240 Jake the
00:34:18.920 questions, that's
00:34:19.600 what we're
00:34:19.880 talking about,
00:34:21.040 that would be
00:34:21.520 a scandal.
00:34:22.800 Because they're
00:34:23.600 news guys,
00:34:24.660 right?
00:34:25.180 If anybody in
00:34:26.700 the news
00:34:27.140 business got
00:34:30.060 questions from
00:34:30.960 the president and
00:34:31.740 then asked
00:34:32.140 those questions,
00:34:33.240 that would be
00:34:34.220 pretty scandalous.
00:34:35.860 However, not
00:34:36.820 everybody's in the
00:34:37.500 news business.
00:34:39.640 Most people are
00:34:40.720 just busy, and
00:34:42.760 it's one more
00:34:43.360 thing they're
00:34:43.760 doing.
00:34:44.900 Now, interviewing
00:34:45.800 the president's one
00:34:46.940 more big thing, but
00:34:48.560 it would not be
00:34:49.520 uncommon if you
00:34:50.940 thought the host
00:34:51.760 who's going to
00:34:52.240 talk to you was
00:34:52.820 not super
00:34:53.680 knowledgeable about
00:34:55.060 politics.
00:34:56.480 You would
00:34:57.080 helpfully give
00:34:57.940 them a list of
00:34:58.780 questions, which I
00:35:00.820 did routinely.
00:35:01.560 when I would
00:35:03.140 do book
00:35:03.900 tours, you
00:35:05.220 would know that
00:35:05.840 the host, in
00:35:06.740 some cases, would
00:35:07.600 have read the
00:35:08.040 book, right?
00:35:09.860 If I talked to
00:35:10.800 James Altusher, not
00:35:12.780 only did he read
00:35:13.400 the book, it's
00:35:14.400 full of comments,
00:35:15.400 like he's got
00:35:16.260 yellow marker and
00:35:17.320 everything.
00:35:18.120 So if I'm going to
00:35:19.520 talk to him, the
00:35:21.020 last freaking thing
00:35:21.900 I'm going to do is
00:35:22.560 give him a list of
00:35:23.280 questions to ask
00:35:24.080 me.
00:35:25.100 That would just be
00:35:25.960 insulting.
00:35:27.120 He not only read
00:35:28.060 the book, he
00:35:28.920 practically memorized
00:35:29.720 it.
00:35:30.440 So his questions
00:35:31.280 are the ones I
00:35:31.880 want to answer.
00:35:32.820 But if I'm just
00:35:34.500 going on some
00:35:35.600 good-looking
00:35:36.300 talking head
00:35:37.180 host, it is
00:35:38.860 common that you've
00:35:40.260 got a set of
00:35:41.040 questions you give
00:35:41.860 them because they
00:35:42.480 haven't read the
00:35:42.980 book and they're
00:35:44.140 not experts on the
00:35:45.060 topic.
00:35:46.060 So they don't
00:35:47.100 necessarily ask the
00:35:48.160 questions and there's
00:35:49.240 no agreement that
00:35:50.020 they would ask them.
00:35:51.120 It's simply an aid.
00:35:52.680 It simply helps them
00:35:53.740 know what would be a
00:35:55.460 good topic.
00:35:56.360 And also it makes
00:35:57.720 you both look good.
00:35:59.040 You know, the
00:35:59.640 objective of that
00:36:00.420 kind of an interview
00:36:01.140 with a friendly
00:36:02.120 interviewer, presumably
00:36:03.520 this was a friendly
00:36:04.400 interviewer, is to
00:36:05.620 make both of you
00:36:06.320 look good.
00:36:07.480 That's what both of
00:36:08.320 you are trying to
00:36:08.740 do.
00:36:09.440 So when the campaign
00:36:10.500 gives the friendly
00:36:11.860 interviewer, again,
00:36:13.440 not a Jake Tapper,
00:36:14.560 not a real news
00:36:15.320 person, but a
00:36:16.720 friendly, that's what
00:36:17.900 it was, it was a
00:36:18.480 friendly interview.
00:36:19.880 Very common.
00:36:21.880 They backed off and
00:36:23.500 they acted
00:36:23.840 embarrassed and they
00:36:24.640 say they won't do
00:36:25.280 it.
00:36:25.480 And that was the
00:36:26.360 right thing to do.
00:36:27.540 They should not have
00:36:28.620 argued the point.
00:36:29.920 So I'll do it for
00:36:30.540 them.
00:36:31.080 That wasn't a big
00:36:31.680 deal.
00:36:33.040 Why do you think it
00:36:34.040 was a big deal?
00:36:36.240 Is it because by its
00:36:37.860 nature, it looks like a
00:36:38.980 big deal?
00:36:40.840 No, the news told you
00:36:42.200 it was a big deal.
00:36:43.160 If you watch the
00:36:44.040 right-leaning news,
00:36:45.000 they said it's a big
00:36:45.680 deal.
00:36:46.380 Hey, everybody talk
00:36:47.060 about this today.
00:36:48.340 And so sure enough,
00:36:49.200 everybody was talking,
00:36:50.400 it was nothing.
00:36:51.340 This is the most
00:36:52.020 nothing story of
00:36:52.900 nothing stories.
00:36:53.640 A non-newsperson does
00:36:55.880 get questions from
00:36:57.480 the interview person
00:36:58.600 routinely.
00:36:59.980 That's the most
00:37:00.660 common thing.
00:37:02.860 All right.
00:37:03.720 And I get that the
00:37:05.040 whole point was to
00:37:05.860 show that Biden was
00:37:07.100 fully functional.
00:37:08.600 I get it.
00:37:09.440 I get it.
00:37:10.040 Just know that it's
00:37:10.780 more ordinary than
00:37:11.740 you think.
00:37:14.140 All right.
00:37:14.700 So here are Biden's
00:37:20.380 latest hoaxes.
00:37:22.420 He's trying to tie the
00:37:23.680 Project 2025 thing from
00:37:25.760 who's that?
00:37:26.440 The Heritage Foundation
00:37:27.560 or something.
00:37:28.700 There's a, let's say,
00:37:30.160 some scary and
00:37:31.000 provocative ideas in it
00:37:32.580 for 2025 that President
00:37:35.380 Trump has said
00:37:36.320 unclearly that he
00:37:39.140 doesn't know what's in
00:37:40.400 it and also he
00:37:41.260 disagrees with it.
00:37:42.160 He doesn't disagree
00:37:44.740 with everything in it,
00:37:45.600 I guess.
00:37:46.100 He just said, he
00:37:47.080 disagrees with things
00:37:48.460 in it.
00:37:49.700 So, of course, that
00:37:51.360 sounds unclear.
00:37:53.120 I don't know anything
00:37:54.200 about it and I
00:37:55.460 disagree with it.
00:37:56.360 It sounds like two
00:37:56.960 opposites, right?
00:37:58.240 But not really.
00:37:59.660 Let me teach you how
00:38:00.760 good reading
00:38:01.980 comprehension works.
00:38:03.960 Good reading
00:38:04.480 comprehension says,
00:38:06.660 what's the most
00:38:07.120 reasonable thing he
00:38:08.140 meant?
00:38:09.100 The most reasonable
00:38:09.920 thing is somebody
00:38:10.760 said to him, hey,
00:38:11.980 do you know this
00:38:12.840 thing has this bad
00:38:13.740 idea and that bad
00:38:14.580 idea?
00:38:15.240 Oh, shoot.
00:38:16.020 Are you really?
00:38:16.860 They're tying that to
00:38:17.640 me?
00:38:18.440 All right.
00:38:18.820 Well, I don't know
00:38:19.380 anything about it, but
00:38:20.200 those two ideas that
00:38:21.360 my aide just mentioned
00:38:22.320 to me sound pretty
00:38:23.080 bad, so I'll say I
00:38:24.580 don't agree with it
00:38:25.460 because I heard two
00:38:26.620 ideas, but I don't
00:38:27.800 know anything about
00:38:28.540 it.
00:38:29.900 That's fair.
00:38:31.440 That's completely
00:38:32.280 fair.
00:38:33.200 He didn't read the
00:38:33.880 whole thing, heard a
00:38:35.500 few things about it
00:38:36.360 that didn't agree with
00:38:37.160 him, so he can say I
00:38:39.340 don't agree with it
00:38:40.200 and I haven't read it.
00:38:41.980 No problem at all.
00:38:44.280 But, of course, you
00:38:45.640 know, in our world, that
00:38:46.560 will become like the
00:38:47.280 biggest, you know, why
00:38:49.080 is he saying that?
00:38:50.040 He's lying.
00:38:51.260 No, he's just talking
00:38:52.620 like Trump.
00:38:53.540 He gave you an
00:38:54.340 absolute that wasn't
00:38:56.520 quite an absolute.
00:38:57.620 He knew a little bit
00:38:58.520 about it, but not
00:39:00.800 much.

00:40:03.100 All right, so Biden is
00:40:05.680 saying that, you know, why
00:40:07.500 is he denying it?
00:40:08.560 It's his people and his
00:40:09.900 plan, and it'll destroy
00:40:11.360 America.
00:40:12.060 Google it yourself.
00:40:13.480 So the Project 2025 hoax is
00:40:15.520 on.
00:40:16.000 That looks like that might
00:40:17.040 be the big summer.
00:40:18.660 They'll probably have more
00:40:19.440 than one summer hoax, just
00:40:20.740 kind of A-B test it, see
00:40:22.680 which one works best.
00:40:24.080 But one of the big hoaxes
00:40:25.300 will be Project 2025, and to
00:40:27.360 say it's Trump's opinions.
00:40:29.240 Then we've got the
00:40:30.140 presidential immunity hoax
00:40:31.920 that's going well, that the
00:40:34.580 Supreme Court says that Trump
00:40:35.880 could kill anybody he wants
00:40:37.180 and get away with it, even an
00:40:38.940 American, which of course is
00:40:41.280 not true.
00:40:43.140 But that's another hoax, that
00:40:45.660 Trump's so dangerous that you
00:40:48.420 can't have him have that power to
00:40:50.040 get away with anything.
00:40:51.080 So we've got the Project 2025
00:40:53.580 hoax and the presidential
00:40:55.080 immunity hoax.
00:40:59.060 And so that would give us 11
00:41:01.380 hoaxes.
00:41:02.700 I saw Cenk Weger talking about
00:41:06.060 how, you know, it's obvious that
00:41:08.940 it's a hoax that Biden is okay,
00:41:10.680 and how do we put up with the
00:41:12.680 fact that they're hoaxing us,
00:41:14.060 something we can all see with our
00:41:15.280 own eyes, that he's not okay.
00:41:16.880 So here, ladies and gentlemen, are
00:41:19.780 the top 11 hoaxes.
00:41:22.100 There's the fine, these are, these
00:41:23.760 are the ones that Biden is using.
00:41:25.940 Now, I remind you that unlike that
00:41:28.880 evil Trump, who's a big old fact
00:41:31.480 checking liar, that Biden is running
00:41:35.180 because he wants to bring honesty
00:41:36.560 back to the office, or maintain it,
00:41:38.860 all the honesty that he's already
00:41:40.080 brought back.
00:41:40.660 So he's running his campaign on
00:41:43.380 take a breath.
00:41:46.420 I'm going to see if I can get
00:41:47.460 through it in one breath.
00:41:50.580 Fine people hoax, bleach hoax,
00:41:52.260 suckers and losers hoax, January
00:41:53.560 6th insurrection hoax, dictator for
00:41:55.420 a day hoax, Project 2025 is
00:41:57.500 Trump's plan hoax, presidential
00:41:59.060 immunity hoax, convicted felon
00:42:01.040 hoax, that's really lawfare, steal
00:42:02.960 your democracy hoax, climate change
00:42:04.900 hoax, it's just a cold hoax.
00:42:10.660 One breath.
00:42:12.660 I'm a little lightheaded, but I
00:42:14.620 got it in one breath.
00:42:16.400 Now, how many of those does your
00:42:20.260 average Democrat know is a complete
00:42:22.080 hoax?
00:42:23.480 What do you think?
00:42:24.880 None?
00:42:25.940 They probably know that it's just a
00:42:27.700 cold as a hoax.
00:42:30.020 But, you know, and maybe they
00:42:31.760 believe the fine people hoax is a
00:42:33.900 hoax.
00:42:34.880 But if you can get them to believe
00:42:36.620 those two, you know, one that they
00:42:39.340 see right with their own eyes, so
00:42:40.900 they know hoaxes are possible, then
00:42:43.240 the fine people hoax is the
00:42:44.840 tentpole hoax.
00:42:46.300 As in, if they could lie to me
00:42:47.920 about that, what else have they
00:42:49.320 lied to me about?
00:42:50.160 It's the one that should open up the
00:42:51.780 entire, you know, silo of
00:42:53.740 information.
00:42:55.200 So the other ones are just ones that
00:42:57.060 are, you know, confirming what you
00:42:59.940 suspect if you figure out that the
00:43:01.940 two big hoaxes are hoaxes.
00:43:03.780 The rest are just, oh my God, oh my
00:43:06.600 God, they did it twice?
00:43:08.460 Three times?
00:43:09.500 No way.
00:43:10.580 They didn't give me three hoaxes,
00:43:13.340 four hoaxes.
00:43:14.760 There are four hoaxes?
00:43:16.320 Well, there certainly couldn't be more
00:43:17.800 than five hoaxes.
00:43:19.400 There are 11 hoaxes?
00:43:21.440 Yes.
00:43:22.440 It is a hoaxocracy.
00:43:24.760 Now, here's a challenge for you.
00:43:27.580 If you just limit it to this campaign,
00:43:30.240 what hoaxes are Trump telling?
00:43:35.220 What hoax is Trump pushing?
00:43:38.340 I can't think of one.
00:43:40.680 Can you?
00:43:41.900 Now, if you ask me how many times
00:43:44.040 did he fail the fact check, I'd say,
00:43:46.120 oh, oh, lots of times.
00:43:48.120 Lots of times.
00:43:49.060 Because he does stuff like, you know,
00:43:51.460 my economy was a little better than
00:43:53.140 you remember.
00:43:54.400 My crowd sizes might be a little less
00:43:57.120 than what I said.
00:43:59.340 That sort of thing.
00:44:00.960 I could stop the war in Ukraine in a day.
00:44:04.300 I don't know.
00:44:04.640 Maybe it takes longer than in a day.
00:44:06.860 It's all salesman lies.
00:44:08.980 It's all productive lies.
00:44:10.780 If you don't know the difference
00:44:12.200 between gaslighting,
00:44:13.980 which literally can make you insane
00:44:15.840 and destroy the whole fucking world,
00:44:17.700 with a salesman's exaggeration,
00:44:21.580 which you know is a salesman's exaggeration.
00:44:25.180 How do you know it?
00:44:26.220 He tells you.
00:44:27.660 He says, I use hyperbole.
00:44:29.460 He wrote a book about it.
00:44:31.820 He's not hiding it at all.
00:44:33.440 He says he wants to be America's salesperson.
00:44:36.320 He's using the very words confirming that,
00:44:39.940 no, there's no surprise here.
00:44:41.160 I'm a big old salesperson exaggerator.
00:44:43.480 I'm an optimist.
00:44:45.140 If I tell you I can fix the war in a day,
00:44:47.820 it's because I'm an optimist.
00:44:50.360 I think we can do things.
00:44:52.200 So to compare 11 confirmed organized hoaxes
00:44:57.340 from the organized part of the party,
00:44:59.420 of the Democrats,
00:45:00.420 to the fact that Republicans like their salesperson
00:45:04.000 and they're just sort of used to it,
00:45:05.720 to imagine that those are somehow equivalents
00:45:09.320 is insane.
00:45:11.860 Do you know why people think that Trump's the liar?
00:45:17.420 Have you learned anything yet from this live stream?
00:45:20.220 The reason that people think Trump is the liar,
00:45:22.780 Democrats,
00:45:23.560 is because the news told them
00:45:25.740 that that's what they should think about.
00:45:27.080 It has nothing to do with any reality.
00:45:30.640 It's just that they were told that that's important.
00:45:33.840 It's the least important thing
00:45:35.580 because the things he lies about
00:45:37.780 are completely unimportant.
00:45:39.640 Did he have sex with a porn star?
00:45:43.240 Would that matter to you?
00:45:45.580 Would that matter?
00:45:48.320 No.
00:45:50.260 Does Biden's brain still work?
00:45:53.400 Okay, that matters.
00:45:55.600 That matters.
00:45:57.600 Where did President Trump
00:45:59.440 put his penis for 10 minutes that one time?
00:46:02.920 Don't care.
00:46:04.680 You can't make me care about that.
00:46:07.260 But apparently you can make the Democrats
00:46:08.780 care about that.
00:46:11.220 All right.
00:46:11.860 So I mentioned climate change
00:46:13.160 as one of the hoaxes
00:46:14.120 and I just,
00:46:14.840 I did a Hannity
00:46:16.060 where I give you a bunch of things
00:46:18.000 that you'll definitely agree with
00:46:19.260 and I throw in one that,
00:46:20.520 wait, why is that one in the list?
00:46:22.500 But I asked these questions the other day
00:46:27.800 and I didn't see an answer in the comments.
00:46:30.240 So if somebody had an answer to debunk me,
00:46:32.880 I would like to be debunked.
00:46:34.780 So I don't know that these are true,
00:46:36.960 but is my current understanding anecdotally,
00:46:41.160 perceptually, but not scientifically,
00:46:43.720 just as a citizen watching the news,
00:46:45.760 that the following predictions and claims
00:46:48.700 have not been proven to be true.
00:46:52.540 So I believe we haven't shrunken our green areas.
00:46:55.620 They grew.
00:46:56.200 I don't think our ice melting
00:46:58.260 is any kind of a big problem.
00:47:00.840 I don't see a sea level rise.
00:47:02.980 Again, the ice levels
00:47:04.540 doesn't seem to have changed anything.
00:47:06.540 Storms, I don't think,
00:47:07.640 I don't think we're having more frequent hurricanes.
00:47:10.420 The coral reef has been growing back like crazy
00:47:12.800 in the last three years.
00:47:13.860 That's the opposite of what they said would happen.
00:47:16.020 Polar bears aren't going extinct.
00:47:17.700 They seem to be returning.
00:47:19.520 And then the latest studies
00:47:20.780 that are that even the temperature increases
00:47:24.240 are phony
00:47:25.600 because it's heat island effect and sun effect,
00:47:28.740 and that explains all of it.
00:47:30.340 Now, that doesn't mean that those studies
00:47:32.240 will be validated in the future.
00:47:34.020 But my current understanding is
00:47:36.240 there's no evidence for climate change.
00:47:38.160 If you look at the predictions
00:47:41.320 and then the outcomes,
00:47:43.680 that there's no evidence, none.
00:47:46.380 Am I wrong?
00:47:47.940 Now, I think I'm wrong.
00:47:50.440 If I had to bet, I'd bet against myself.
00:47:53.520 You know, because I tend to be
00:47:55.080 in a little bit of a silo as well.
00:47:57.280 But I don't think there are any remaining
00:47:59.500 major predictions that have panned out.
00:48:03.200 And if none of the major predictions have panned out,
00:48:05.820 are we done?
00:48:09.240 At what point do we say,
00:48:10.780 okay, it was, you know,
00:48:13.040 your theory at least had some plausibility,
00:48:15.540 but it didn't predict.
00:48:17.040 If it doesn't predict, it's nothing.
00:48:20.280 That's my story.
00:48:21.900 If it can't predict, it isn't anything.
00:48:23.600 It's not true if it can't predict.
00:48:25.180 All right, so far I've presented you with two lists.
00:48:32.160 I really am a big fan of list persuasion
00:48:35.140 for this election
00:48:36.340 because there's a whole bunch of stuff
00:48:38.640 that is too complicated for people to handle.
00:48:42.640 But maybe they can handle the fact
00:48:44.840 that there's a bunch of stuff on a list.
00:48:47.100 So if I tell you there are 11 active hoaxes,
00:48:50.140 and then I show them to you,
00:48:53.180 if the only thing you could do
00:48:55.080 is debunk three of them,
00:48:57.560 I've made my point.
00:48:59.880 I go, well, you could argue three of them.
00:49:01.600 I think you're wrong,
00:49:02.400 but did you agree the other seven are hoaxes?
00:49:05.180 Okay, then you win.
00:49:06.640 So you don't have to win all of them,
00:49:09.520 even if all of them are true.
00:49:11.020 You just have to say,
00:49:12.080 all right, you can see the trend here, right?
00:49:14.440 You can see that one is not the honest guy.
00:49:16.460 The list of hoaxes tells you
00:49:19.760 that one of them isn't just a liar.
00:49:22.380 He is a whole different level of lying.
00:49:24.740 The gaslighting is a whole different level.
00:49:26.600 That's not lying.
00:49:27.880 That's a whole different thing.
00:49:29.460 It's much worse.
00:49:31.340 Then I gave you the list of climate predictions
00:49:34.440 that I think, you know, again,
00:49:36.460 I'm sure there's some conflicting data on this,
00:49:39.260 but at the moment,
00:49:40.120 I'm not convinced any of those happened.
00:49:42.340 So that's a good list.
00:49:44.200 It's one thing to say,
00:49:45.320 ah, what about the coral?
00:49:48.360 Then somebody else will say,
00:49:49.540 well, that's one thing.
00:49:50.520 What about the storms?
00:49:52.160 So you have to do them all.
00:49:53.520 If you're going to talk climate change,
00:49:54.900 you've got to do them all.
00:49:56.200 You've got to go right down,
00:49:57.420 you know, green, ice, sea level.
00:50:00.320 You've got to do them all.
00:50:01.640 So we should have,
00:50:03.340 we meaning people who are wanting Trump to be president,
00:50:07.540 there should be somewhere,
00:50:09.320 ideally in a centralized place,
00:50:12.480 the list persuasion.
00:50:13.780 So there'd be a list of all the hoaxes.
00:50:17.520 There'd be a list of all the climate change predictions
00:50:21.820 that didn't work out.
00:50:23.340 And then this next list,
00:50:25.200 David Sachs has started,
00:50:27.260 calling who's stealing your democracy.
00:50:30.000 So here's a list of things that the Democrats are doing
00:50:34.680 or have done to steal your democracy.
00:50:37.140 Censor the internet,
00:50:38.780 jail political opponents,
00:50:40.360 remove opponents' names from ballots,
00:50:42.540 rig primaries by blocking alternatives,
00:50:45.120 hide evidence of your candidates' unfitness,
00:50:47.700 disenfranchise your own voters
00:50:49.080 by letting donors pick new candidates.
00:50:51.180 And then I thought of a few that I might add to that list.
00:50:55.760 Didn't Wisconsin just confirm that they were going to allow uncontrolled drop boxes
00:51:02.160 all over the place?
00:51:02.940 The purpose of that is to steal your democracy.
00:51:08.220 Let's not kid ourselves.
00:51:09.400 There's only one reason.
00:51:11.020 And how about the shipping in all the migrants
00:51:13.460 and trying to get them to vote?
00:51:15.540 Is that because they want more democracy?
00:51:18.520 No.
00:51:19.380 No.
00:51:20.000 They're rigging the democracy.
00:51:22.320 So there should also be a list,
00:51:24.760 and the Sachs list is a good starter,
00:51:26.660 but I think it's much longer.
00:51:28.400 There should be like a tight 10 to 20 things.
00:51:32.580 20 is too many.
00:51:34.140 Keep it under 12.
00:51:36.100 A good 12 things that guarantee that anybody reads it go,
00:51:40.960 oh, it looks like the Democrats might be suppressing your democracy.
00:51:45.920 What's the list for Trump?
00:51:49.040 Hoaxes.
00:51:49.600 Yeah, the Trump list is hoaxes.
00:51:53.440 None of them are true.
00:51:54.880 It's just on the hoax list.
00:51:58.540 And then Trump says this.
00:52:00.800 Every one of the lawsuits I'm involved with,
00:52:03.440 including the civil scams,
00:52:04.980 were started by crooked Joe Biden and his fascist government
00:52:08.600 for purposes of election interference, blah, blah, blah.
00:52:14.460 That feels true to me,
00:52:16.460 meaning that if we had some way to know for sure,
00:52:21.000 it would look like Biden coordinated it directly
00:52:24.180 or by putting out the word,
00:52:25.900 which is the same thing,
00:52:27.560 and that it's an organized lawfare to keep him out.
00:52:31.980 Now, is that a hoax?
00:52:34.580 Is it a hoax when he says it's all organized by the top?
00:52:37.680 I would say it's unconfirmed.
00:52:41.240 But I think reality is certainly leading that way about as hard as you can lead.
00:52:46.640 You know, I'd want a smoking gun.
00:52:49.660 But it's so obvious.
00:52:50.980 I mean, the circumstantial evidence is overwhelming, really.
00:52:55.540 You can make a case on circumstantial evidence.
00:52:58.600 It just has to be strong circumstantial evidence.
00:53:01.000 And there is.
00:53:01.960 It's really strong.
00:53:03.520 The fact that these are made-up cases
00:53:05.820 that nobody else would be charged with,
00:53:08.740 the fact that some of them met with White House people,
00:53:11.900 the fact that the number three person in the DOJ
00:53:14.560 stepped back to work on it,
00:53:16.400 the fact that Biden put out the word,
00:53:20.120 these are all things we do know.
00:53:22.440 I mean, if it's not true,
00:53:25.180 if it's not true that the Democrats organized this at the top,
00:53:29.100 that would be really surprising.
00:53:31.100 Really surprising.
00:53:34.120 Well, the documents cases delayed.
00:53:37.800 Federal Judge Eileen Cannon
00:53:40.260 is going to give the Trump team time
00:53:42.900 to update their arguments
00:53:46.540 because the Supreme Court said
00:53:48.660 that the president has some immunity
00:53:50.180 and they're going to try to make that
00:53:51.620 part of their argument
00:53:52.900 that the documents should be not considered a big deal.
00:54:00.120 Because I think the argument is still
00:54:02.140 that the president, by his actions,
00:54:04.900 had declassified them.
00:54:06.560 His actions being,
00:54:08.080 hey, put these in a box
00:54:09.120 and I'm going to take them to Mar-a-Lago.
00:54:11.080 Because there's no process.
00:54:13.020 Well, there's no legal process.
00:54:15.720 There's a precedent
00:54:16.540 of how it was normally done,
00:54:18.740 but not a legal requirement,
00:54:21.960 my understanding.
00:54:24.080 All right.
00:54:24.420 Nate Silver,
00:54:25.640 big guy.
00:54:26.680 He was the creator of the 538
00:54:28.600 polling company,
00:54:31.100 but he's not there anymore.
00:54:32.600 And he's more outspoken.
00:54:35.340 And he's talking about
00:54:37.540 Biden's interview with ABC.
00:54:39.840 And he said of his own writing,
00:54:43.780 because he wrote about it already,
00:54:45.160 he said he's revising his opinion.
00:54:47.020 He said, quote,
00:54:47.820 I wimped out in today's column
00:54:49.340 and deleted a line
00:54:50.440 saying he should formulate
00:54:52.120 a plan to transition
00:54:53.640 the presidency
00:54:54.460 to Harris
00:54:56.280 within 30 to 60 days.
00:54:58.960 But Silver says,
00:55:00.700 I'm there now.
00:55:02.040 Something is clearly wrong.
00:55:03.420 So Nate Silver
00:55:07.360 is a great follow.
00:55:08.780 You're going to say,
00:55:09.700 but, but, but,
00:55:10.520 he said all those things
00:55:11.600 before that you didn't like.
00:55:13.200 And, you know,
00:55:14.600 forget about that.
00:55:16.300 Whatever he said before,
00:55:17.480 just forget about it.
00:55:18.320 He, he's now a free,
00:55:20.680 he's one of the few free minds.
00:55:23.420 He seems to be saying
00:55:24.460 whatever looks real.
00:55:26.580 Rare.
00:55:27.620 He doesn't seem to be trying
00:55:28.940 to make a political point
00:55:30.220 in any direction.
00:55:31.480 I haven't picked up
00:55:32.280 any bias at all.
00:55:33.720 He just seems to be willing
00:55:35.040 to talk about what he sees,
00:55:36.680 which is rare
00:55:37.320 from somebody who's insightful.
00:55:39.640 Well, according to
00:55:43.540 news site,
00:55:45.160 Just the News,
00:55:47.020 the,
00:55:47.800 there's a growing number
00:55:48.620 of Democrats
00:55:49.260 and major news organizations
00:55:51.340 asking for
00:55:52.160 Biden to step down.
00:55:53.620 So here's what we know so far.
00:55:55.620 The latest entities,
00:55:58.920 The Economist,
00:56:00.520 that's the publication,
00:56:01.760 The Economist,
00:56:02.460 New York Times,
00:56:03.280 the Atlanta Journal of the Constitution,
00:56:05.680 The New Yorker,
00:56:07.900 they've all asked Biden
00:56:08.840 to step down.
00:56:09.460 The Chicago Tribune,
00:56:10.660 The Wall Street Journal,
00:56:11.460 The Boston Globe,
00:56:12.660 and now The Washington Post
00:56:14.500 has identified
00:56:16.240 five out of 287
00:56:18.260 elected Democrats
00:56:19.440 that are now
00:56:20.940 on the step down side.
00:56:24.360 So remember the famous saying,
00:56:27.400 I forget what context
00:56:28.380 it was originally,
00:56:30.040 that things start
00:56:31.000 with a trickle.
00:56:32.860 So if you're saying to yourself,
00:56:34.800 well, that's a trickle,
00:56:36.360 you would be
00:56:37.600 maybe analyzing wrong.
00:56:39.120 because the trickle
00:56:40.580 precedes the flood.
00:56:43.100 And if the trickle
00:56:44.860 just trickles
00:56:45.920 a little bit more,
00:56:47.440 the floodgate will open
00:56:48.780 and it'll just be over.
00:56:51.020 I'm going to predict
00:56:52.360 still,
00:56:55.200 and I think I'm the only one
00:56:56.540 predicting it,
00:56:57.900 that because Biden
00:56:59.100 will be stubborn
00:56:59.880 and still alive,
00:57:01.520 he will stay in the race
00:57:02.580 all the way
00:57:03.320 until election day.
00:57:04.100 I believe
00:57:05.600 that the Democrats'
00:57:07.140 best play,
00:57:08.380 since they won't be able
00:57:09.300 to change it,
00:57:10.400 is to act like
00:57:12.060 all along
00:57:13.460 you're really just
00:57:14.140 voting for Harris.
00:57:15.760 And I think you'll see
00:57:17.160 prominent people saying,
00:57:18.340 yes, yes,
00:57:19.480 our first choice
00:57:20.380 is Biden not running.
00:57:21.840 But I want you all
00:57:22.780 voters to understand
00:57:23.780 that you're voting
00:57:24.440 for Harris
00:57:25.020 and my God,
00:57:26.240 is she good.
00:57:27.340 Now,
00:57:27.600 you haven't seen it
00:57:28.560 during her vice presidency,
00:57:31.060 but let us tell you,
00:57:32.680 privately,
00:57:34.100 sharp as a tack.
00:57:35.700 Yeah,
00:57:36.100 yeah,
00:57:36.420 sure,
00:57:36.780 she seems like she's drunk
00:57:37.840 and muttering in public,
00:57:38.740 but privately,
00:57:40.700 privately,
00:57:42.220 sharp as a tack.
00:57:44.160 And the same people
00:57:46.660 who believe that Biden
00:57:48.480 was really sharp
00:57:49.440 when you weren't watching,
00:57:50.840 they think that Harris
00:57:52.620 is very capable
00:57:53.540 when you're not watching.
00:57:55.880 Because if it worked before,
00:57:57.780 why not try it again?
00:57:59.460 Hey, everybody.
00:58:00.680 Yeah,
00:58:00.820 when you're not watching,
00:58:02.000 oh, man,
00:58:03.520 two of the smartest people
00:58:04.820 you've ever known.
00:58:06.120 But when you're watching,
00:58:07.080 yeah,
00:58:07.500 yeah,
00:58:07.700 they have bad days.
00:58:08.740 They just have these bad days.
00:58:13.960 So I believe
00:58:14.960 it will be
00:58:15.600 the Schrodinger's candidacy.
00:58:18.180 You'll have
00:58:18.900 two candidates
00:58:19.640 for president,
00:58:20.420 one dead
00:58:21.120 and one alive,
00:58:22.780 Harris being the alive one.
00:58:24.460 And we will go
00:58:25.480 right through
00:58:26.040 the absurdity
00:58:26.860 of an election
00:58:27.500 not knowing
00:58:29.220 who you're voting for.
00:58:30.760 We will have
00:58:31.620 the first presidential election
00:58:33.120 where the voters
00:58:34.580 won't know
00:58:35.580 who they voted for
00:58:37.400 if they voted
00:58:38.040 for the Democrats.
00:58:39.540 They may think
00:58:40.440 they voted for Harris.
00:58:41.760 They may think
00:58:42.660 they voted
00:58:43.060 for another
00:58:43.700 Biden presidency.
00:58:45.260 But they won't know
00:58:46.480 for sure.
00:58:47.420 Because it will depend
00:58:48.400 on what happens
00:58:49.420 with Joe
00:58:49.900 and maybe that
00:58:50.960 depends on him.
00:58:52.440 So I'm going to call it
00:58:53.820 the Harris-Biden campaign
00:58:55.020 from now on.
00:58:56.040 Is that fair?
00:58:56.580 It's not really
00:58:58.560 the Biden-Harris campaign
00:58:59.800 going forward.
00:59:02.120 Would you agree?
00:59:03.820 So I think
00:59:04.820 even the Democrats
00:59:05.620 might call it that.
00:59:07.200 Here's my prediction.
00:59:08.540 You will hear
00:59:09.220 on one of the major
00:59:10.520 networks
00:59:11.720 like CNN
00:59:12.380 or MSCBC
00:59:13.380 somebody will say
00:59:14.940 what I just said.
00:59:16.520 You know,
00:59:17.520 for all practical purposes
00:59:18.880 you could think of it
00:59:20.180 as the Harris-Biden campaign.
00:59:23.380 Wait for that.
00:59:24.920 That's coming.
00:59:25.640 All right.
00:59:30.120 Wall Street Journal
00:59:31.200 is saying that
00:59:32.060 only Harris is viable.
00:59:35.060 Which is interesting
00:59:36.180 because we've heard
00:59:37.600 that Biden is vibrant.
00:59:40.080 So it's viable
00:59:41.380 and vibrant.
00:59:43.400 We've got one viable
00:59:44.300 and one vibrant.
00:59:45.920 I don't know.
00:59:46.320 That feels like a tie.
00:59:48.640 I like viable
00:59:49.480 but I also like vibrant.
00:59:51.920 I'm going to call it a tie.
00:59:54.420 All right.
00:59:54.760 I am amused
00:59:55.740 beyond
00:59:56.340 I mean this is just
00:59:58.920 so delightful
00:59:59.580 watching the dilemma.
01:00:02.320 I'll call it
01:00:02.660 the Axelrod dilemma.
01:00:05.220 Now,
01:00:05.880 I'm maybe more of a
01:00:07.280 you know,
01:00:08.060 a wonk
01:00:08.680 about politics
01:00:10.020 that,
01:00:11.420 you know,
01:00:11.580 if you say to yourself
01:00:12.360 who's this David Axelrod
01:00:13.820 you're not going to
01:00:15.240 you're not going to
01:00:15.260 fully appreciate this.
01:00:17.460 So David Axelrod
01:00:18.280 is long time,
01:00:19.880 you know,
01:00:20.240 one of the smartest
01:00:21.240 political observers
01:00:24.800 and campaign advisors.
01:00:26.800 So he would be
01:00:27.800 one of the strong people
01:00:29.120 all the way
01:00:29.560 from the Clinton presidency
01:00:30.980 on
01:00:31.480 and
01:00:32.620 always one of the
01:00:34.260 sane
01:00:34.800 non-crazy voices
01:00:36.380 who understands
01:00:37.160 how things work
01:00:37.980 in the real world.
01:00:38.760 and so he rode
01:00:40.740 this horse
01:00:41.340 this
01:00:42.920 Democrat horse
01:00:44.040 because it was
01:00:44.960 his horse
01:00:45.540 that means
01:00:46.360 you know,
01:00:47.560 as Democrat
01:00:48.120 as you could be
01:00:48.820 and
01:00:50.220 the horse
01:00:50.960 turned into a horse
01:00:51.900 that doesn't like
01:00:52.680 people like David Axelrod
01:00:53.980 as in
01:00:55.620 he's a little bit
01:00:56.500 too old
01:00:56.980 and a little bit
01:00:57.540 too white
01:00:58.140 to have much
01:00:59.400 influence over
01:01:00.220 the party
01:01:00.740 at this point.
01:01:01.680 And I'm pretty sure
01:01:02.680 that they say
01:01:03.260 that privately.
01:01:05.680 Don't you think
01:01:06.420 that privately
01:01:07.000 they say
01:01:07.620 you know
01:01:08.640 the old white guy
01:01:09.560 he just keeps
01:01:10.680 chattering
01:01:11.120 in the news
01:01:12.280 but
01:01:12.560 let's just
01:01:13.440 keep ignoring him
01:01:14.380 because
01:01:15.220 his day is done.
01:01:17.620 The day of the
01:01:18.340 old white guys
01:01:19.040 are over
01:01:19.500 and
01:01:19.920 you know
01:01:20.860 we want the
01:01:21.480 diverse voices
01:01:22.560 to
01:01:22.940 be the forward
01:01:24.200 voices
01:01:24.660 and there's
01:01:26.060 nothing wrong
01:01:26.500 with that
01:01:26.800 they would say
01:01:27.300 and there's
01:01:29.460 nothing wrong
01:01:29.920 with that.
01:01:30.520 There's nothing
01:01:31.180 wrong with
01:01:31.640 a political
01:01:32.160 party
01:01:32.560 saying
01:01:32.980 you know
01:01:33.740 this is
01:01:34.060 who we are
01:01:34.580 and then
01:01:34.920 constituting
01:01:35.660 in that way.
01:01:37.480 It's just
01:01:38.220 really a bad
01:01:39.020 dilemma
01:01:39.360 for
01:01:39.860 Axelrod
01:01:41.500 and Carver
01:01:43.300 Carville.
01:01:45.000 Do you think
01:01:45.820 James Carville
01:01:46.580 is doing
01:01:47.900 these insane
01:01:48.660 videos
01:01:49.220 and interviews
01:01:50.340 because
01:01:51.820 they're listening
01:01:52.600 to him
01:01:53.020 no
01:01:54.240 it's because
01:01:55.100 he says
01:01:55.720 they're not
01:01:56.120 listening to
01:01:56.620 him
01:01:56.800 that's why
01:01:57.800 he's going
01:01:58.160 public
01:01:58.600 so
01:01:59.920 Axelrod
01:02:01.280 is not
01:02:01.640 being listened
01:02:02.120 to
01:02:02.420 and James
01:02:03.740 Carville
01:02:04.180 is not
01:02:04.600 being listened
01:02:05.080 to
01:02:05.360 do you think
01:02:07.080 it's a coincidence
01:02:07.800 that they're
01:02:08.400 the old
01:02:08.740 white guys
01:02:09.260 no
01:02:10.560 it's not
01:02:11.420 a coincidence
01:02:11.860 and what
01:02:13.480 does he do
01:02:13.920 about the
01:02:14.320 fact
01:02:14.640 that
01:02:17.280 he's
01:02:18.980 supporting
01:02:19.400 a party
01:02:19.940 that doesn't
01:02:21.440 want him
01:02:21.920 as an
01:02:22.300 advisor
01:02:22.720 because he's
01:02:23.220 a white
01:02:23.480 guy
01:02:23.700 he has
01:02:25.400 to know
01:02:25.760 that
01:02:26.100 would you
01:02:27.040 agree
01:02:27.340 there's no
01:02:29.080 way that
01:02:29.600 he's waking
01:02:30.060 up and
01:02:30.460 saying I'm
01:02:30.920 sure glad
01:02:31.440 I'm a
01:02:31.720 Democrat
01:02:32.060 there's no
01:02:33.620 way he's
01:02:34.120 saying that
01:02:34.600 because he
01:02:35.540 knows the
01:02:36.080 Democrats
01:02:36.440 don't like
01:02:37.080 him for
01:02:37.580 his race
01:02:38.180 and his
01:02:38.740 gender
01:02:39.060 and that
01:02:40.300 he can't
01:02:40.840 be an
01:02:41.720 important
01:02:42.060 person in
01:02:43.200 that party
01:02:43.700 with his
01:02:44.640 current race
01:02:45.240 and gender
01:02:45.700 Carville
01:02:46.920 knows that
01:02:47.540 and Axelrod
01:02:50.140 has to know
01:02:50.760 it too
01:02:51.100 so what do
01:02:52.160 you do
01:02:52.380 if you're
01:02:52.660 them
01:02:52.840 I don't
01:02:54.880 think this
01:02:55.340 is impossible
01:02:56.120 I'll bet
01:02:57.040 against it
01:02:57.680 but you
01:02:58.720 might see
01:02:59.240 one of
01:02:59.700 these guys
01:03:00.440 or one
01:03:01.880 like it
01:03:02.320 you know
01:03:02.580 they're not
01:03:03.000 the only
01:03:03.300 ones in
01:03:03.660 this
01:03:03.900 situation
01:03:04.660 actually
01:03:05.940 register
01:03:06.880 as a
01:03:07.400 Republican
01:03:07.820 publicly
01:03:08.440 and say
01:03:09.660 I can't
01:03:10.300 go along
01:03:10.660 with the
01:03:10.920 DEI stuff
01:03:11.700 because I'm
01:03:12.840 being ignored
01:03:13.500 and discriminated
01:03:14.480 against in my
01:03:15.120 own party
01:03:15.620 and this is
01:03:16.400 the number
01:03:16.760 one thing
01:03:17.220 we're against
01:03:17.800 so we
01:03:19.140 turned into
01:03:19.600 this horrible
01:03:20.140 discriminating
01:03:21.120 thing
01:03:21.540 and I
01:03:22.860 don't like
01:03:23.300 Trump
01:03:23.620 but at a
01:03:24.680 protest
01:03:24.960 I'm just
01:03:25.480 going to
01:03:26.000 register
01:03:26.680 Republican
01:03:27.260 because I
01:03:28.160 don't want
01:03:28.440 to associate
01:03:28.900 with a
01:03:29.880 group that
01:03:30.400 is overtly
01:03:31.200 discriminating
01:03:31.860 by race
01:03:32.360 and gender
01:03:32.780 I think
01:03:34.280 you might
01:03:34.560 see it
01:03:35.020 not necessarily
01:03:36.440 one of these
01:03:36.860 two guys
01:03:37.420 but somebody
01:03:38.640 in that
01:03:38.980 domain
01:03:39.580 well there's
01:03:43.120 a story
01:03:43.420 about the
01:03:43.940 CIA director
01:03:45.540 of Bill
01:03:45.940 Burns
01:03:46.360 he's going
01:03:46.960 over to
01:03:47.360 Doha
01:03:47.760 next week
01:03:48.420 Axios
01:03:49.880 is reporting
01:03:50.440 and he's
01:03:51.620 going to
01:03:51.800 talk to
01:03:52.080 the Prime
01:03:52.380 Minister
01:03:52.640 of Qatar
01:03:53.240 and talk
01:03:55.280 to the
01:03:55.620 director
01:03:55.940 of Israeli
01:03:56.520 Mossad
01:03:57.800 and the
01:03:58.140 head of
01:03:58.360 the Egyptian
01:03:58.840 intelligence
01:03:59.340 people
01:03:59.740 and they're
01:04:00.640 going to
01:04:00.860 try to
01:04:01.160 push forward
01:04:01.880 on some
01:04:02.640 kind of
01:04:02.940 Gaza hostage
01:04:03.760 and ceasefire
01:04:04.440 deal
01:04:04.760 huh
01:04:05.660 does that
01:04:06.660 raise any
01:04:07.120 eyebrows
01:04:07.560 is there
01:04:08.880 anything about
01:04:09.420 that story
01:04:10.260 that strikes
01:04:11.960 you as
01:04:13.340 alarming
01:04:14.920 well
01:04:17.100 why exactly
01:04:18.740 are the
01:04:19.320 intelligence
01:04:19.840 agencies
01:04:20.440 of these
01:04:21.060 entities
01:04:21.500 taking the
01:04:22.800 lead on
01:04:23.480 what to
01:04:23.820 do next
01:04:24.460 I get
01:04:26.740 that they're
01:04:27.120 important
01:04:27.480 players
01:04:28.000 but why
01:04:29.880 are they
01:04:30.360 taking the
01:04:31.000 lead
01:04:31.340 could it
01:04:32.640 be
01:04:32.920 that they've
01:04:33.880 dropped the
01:04:34.320 pretense
01:04:34.760 that civilian
01:04:35.780 governments
01:04:36.360 are in
01:04:36.660 charge
01:04:36.960 maybe they
01:04:39.100 just dropped
01:04:39.540 the pretense
01:04:40.160 and said
01:04:40.860 look
01:04:41.180 you're in
01:04:42.120 charge of
01:04:42.420 your government
01:04:43.020 we're in
01:04:43.980 charge of
01:04:44.300 our government
01:04:44.840 the intelligence
01:04:46.120 agencies are
01:04:46.880 going to make
01:04:47.180 all the
01:04:47.500 decisions
01:04:48.020 can we
01:04:48.860 just get
01:04:49.240 together
01:04:49.540 and decide
01:04:50.040 what you're
01:04:50.500 going to
01:04:50.620 tell your
01:04:50.920 government
01:04:51.280 to do
01:04:51.720 that's
01:04:52.960 what it
01:04:53.160 looks like
01:04:53.460 to me
01:04:53.800 it looks
01:04:55.100 like when
01:04:55.480 the CIA
01:04:55.960 works on
01:04:56.540 a deal
01:04:56.900 that the
01:04:58.060 other
01:04:58.400 intelligence
01:04:59.260 agencies
01:04:59.860 for those
01:05:00.460 the other
01:05:01.500 concerned
01:05:01.980 entities
01:05:02.520 if they
01:05:03.920 all agree
01:05:04.400 on something
01:05:04.980 they will
01:05:05.860 go back
01:05:06.260 to their
01:05:06.540 country
01:05:06.840 and say
01:05:07.140 hey
01:05:07.320 Netanyahu
01:05:07.880 here's
01:05:08.680 what you're
01:05:09.020 going to
01:05:09.200 do
01:05:09.440 or else
01:05:10.860 here Obama
01:05:12.780 here's
01:05:13.660 what you're
01:05:13.980 going to
01:05:14.160 do
01:05:14.440 or else
01:05:15.920 here Egypt
01:05:17.940 here's
01:05:18.240 what you're
01:05:18.560 going to
01:05:18.720 do
01:05:19.020 or else
01:05:20.600 here Qatar
01:05:21.920 here's
01:05:22.420 what you're
01:05:22.720 going to
01:05:22.900 do
01:05:23.240 or else
01:05:25.240 by now
01:05:26.680 all of
01:05:27.120 those
01:05:27.300 intelligence
01:05:27.800 agencies
01:05:28.280 have
01:05:28.600 captured
01:05:28.980 their
01:05:29.220 governments
01:05:29.660 of course
01:05:30.940 they have
01:05:31.340 of course
01:05:33.120 they have
01:05:33.500 the only
01:05:34.200 place where
01:05:34.680 I think
01:05:35.000 it might
01:05:35.340 not be
01:05:35.760 happening
01:05:36.120 are
01:05:37.060 China
01:05:37.520 and
01:05:38.000 Russia
01:05:38.380 why
01:05:39.720 because
01:05:40.680 China
01:05:41.000 and Russia
01:05:41.400 are tough
01:05:41.980 characters
01:05:42.500 and I
01:05:43.780 think
01:05:44.020 the moment
01:05:44.940 the
01:05:45.300 intelligence
01:05:45.900 agencies
01:05:46.480 look like
01:05:47.040 they were
01:05:47.300 threatening
01:05:47.640 they would
01:05:47.980 just be
01:05:48.380 taken away
01:05:48.980 and murdered
01:05:49.440 so if
01:05:52.200 your
01:05:52.360 president
01:05:52.760 isn't
01:05:53.200 actively
01:05:53.680 murdering
01:05:54.260 people in
01:05:54.700 their own
01:05:55.020 intelligence
01:05:55.460 service
01:05:56.020 the
01:05:56.880 intelligence
01:05:57.280 service
01:05:57.680 will take
01:05:58.260 over the
01:05:58.600 government
01:05:58.920 there's
01:05:59.320 no doubt
01:05:59.680 about it
01:06:00.100 I don't
01:06:00.640 know what's
01:06:00.960 happening
01:06:01.220 in Egypt
01:06:01.740 but my
01:06:03.000 guess is
01:06:03.540 if these
01:06:03.960 entities
01:06:04.320 are getting
01:06:04.720 together
01:06:05.120 and they
01:06:05.440 think they
01:06:05.800 can be
01:06:06.120 productive
01:06:06.560 it's not
01:06:07.680 because they
01:06:08.120 have secrets
01:06:08.740 it's not
01:06:10.440 like we
01:06:11.120 better send
01:06:11.600 the intelligence
01:06:12.140 people
01:06:12.560 because they
01:06:13.360 know the
01:06:13.740 good stuff
01:06:14.280 and only
01:06:15.260 they you
01:06:15.900 know can
01:06:16.180 make a
01:06:16.480 deal
01:06:16.680 because they
01:06:17.020 know that
01:06:17.360 no I
01:06:18.500 think this
01:06:18.960 is an
01:06:19.320 acknowledgement
01:06:19.780 that they're
01:06:20.320 the ones
01:06:20.640 in charge
01:06:21.180 at least
01:06:22.600 of this
01:06:23.200 issue
01:06:23.660 and if
01:06:25.180 they don't
01:06:25.620 agree
01:06:25.880 nothing will
01:06:26.360 happen
01:06:26.660 so you
01:06:28.060 first have
01:06:28.540 to get
01:06:28.780 them to
01:06:29.100 agree on
01:06:29.540 what looks
01:06:30.420 like a
01:06:30.760 plan
01:06:31.100 and then
01:06:32.160 maybe
01:06:32.360 something
01:06:32.700 can happen
01:06:33.120 but
01:06:33.900 does any
01:06:34.760 of it
01:06:35.000 matter
01:06:35.300 nope
01:06:36.500 do you
01:06:37.580 know when
01:06:37.880 Israel is
01:06:38.640 going to be
01:06:39.120 ready to
01:06:39.940 wrap up
01:06:41.580 the war
01:06:41.980 never
01:06:43.600 never
01:06:44.960 you're a
01:06:46.920 total sucker
01:06:47.540 if you think
01:06:48.200 the war is
01:06:48.600 ever going
01:06:48.940 to end
01:06:49.260 Israel will
01:06:50.760 keep the
01:06:51.180 war going
01:06:51.700 in some
01:06:52.220 form
01:06:52.660 you know
01:06:53.300 might be
01:06:53.680 a reduced
01:06:54.780 form
01:06:55.220 but the
01:06:56.080 last thing
01:06:56.520 they want
01:06:56.800 to do
01:06:56.980 is end
01:06:57.340 it and
01:06:57.640 then rebuild
01:06:58.180 Gaza
01:06:58.620 and just
01:06:59.700 rebuild the
01:07:00.240 problem
01:07:00.580 no Israel
01:07:01.840 is way
01:07:02.360 better off
01:07:02.920 with a
01:07:03.220 permanent
01:07:03.520 war
01:07:03.900 just you
01:07:05.340 know playing
01:07:05.700 whack-a-mole
01:07:06.340 with the
01:07:06.840 with the
01:07:07.800 people who
01:07:08.200 pop up
01:07:08.700 because
01:07:09.360 reputationally
01:07:10.240 they've
01:07:10.520 already lost
01:07:11.060 everything
01:07:11.440 that they
01:07:11.800 had
01:07:12.100 right
01:07:13.340 it's not
01:07:14.100 like Gaza
01:07:14.640 is gonna
01:07:15.040 suddenly
01:07:16.060 the narrative
01:07:17.060 is gonna
01:07:17.380 change
01:07:17.940 do you think
01:07:18.760 the narrative
01:07:19.220 will change
01:07:19.800 oh you know
01:07:20.680 what
01:07:20.960 you know
01:07:21.520 we hated
01:07:22.260 Israel
01:07:22.600 but yeah
01:07:23.460 you have
01:07:23.820 to admit
01:07:24.360 they did
01:07:24.940 a you know
01:07:25.880 a very morally
01:07:26.780 and ethically
01:07:27.640 responsible
01:07:28.360 reaction there
01:07:29.600 in Gaza
01:07:29.960 that's never
01:07:31.200 gonna happen
01:07:31.680 Israel has
01:07:33.180 nothing to
01:07:33.780 gain
01:07:34.160 by making
01:07:35.500 you like
01:07:36.020 what they
01:07:36.340 did in
01:07:36.700 Gaza
01:07:36.960 nothing
01:07:38.000 because you
01:07:38.920 won't like
01:07:39.540 it
01:07:39.760 you they
01:07:40.780 can't get
01:07:41.180 from here
01:07:41.480 to there
01:07:41.800 there's no
01:07:42.680 way to
01:07:42.940 convince you
01:07:43.400 to like
01:07:43.780 it
01:07:43.960 so if
01:07:45.080 you've
01:07:45.340 already
01:07:45.560 decided
01:07:46.040 there's
01:07:46.380 nothing
01:07:46.660 they can
01:07:47.040 do to
01:07:47.340 make
01:07:47.520 you like
01:07:47.940 it
01:07:48.200 then the
01:07:49.080 only thing
01:07:49.460 that matters
01:07:49.960 is what's
01:07:51.080 good for
01:07:51.400 Israel
01:07:51.700 and I
01:07:53.200 do not
01:07:53.580 fault any
01:07:54.160 country
01:07:54.540 for doing
01:07:55.400 what's in
01:07:56.880 their national
01:07:57.340 interest
01:07:57.760 as Trump
01:07:58.900 often points
01:07:59.580 out
01:07:59.860 that's the way
01:08:00.760 it's supposed
01:08:01.140 to work
01:08:01.600 Israel is
01:08:03.360 supposed to
01:08:03.720 do what's
01:08:04.020 good for
01:08:04.320 Israel
01:08:04.620 America is
01:08:06.140 supposed to
01:08:06.460 do what's
01:08:06.740 good for
01:08:07.020 America
01:08:07.340 that's a
01:08:07.860 good system
01:08:08.360 you know
01:08:09.600 and then
01:08:09.840 when there's
01:08:10.440 conflict
01:08:10.800 we work
01:08:11.300 it out
01:08:11.580 so no
01:08:15.160 I wouldn't
01:08:15.660 expect any
01:08:16.240 ceasefire
01:08:16.740 I don't
01:08:17.880 expect the
01:08:18.560 hostages
01:08:19.300 will ever
01:08:19.840 be given
01:08:20.260 up and
01:08:21.120 they're probably
01:08:21.740 dead anyway
01:08:22.320 some of them
01:08:23.280 and no
01:08:24.980 there's
01:08:25.740 no path
01:08:26.600 I don't
01:08:28.240 see any
01:08:28.560 path at
01:08:28.880 all
01:08:29.060 I see
01:08:34.780 somebody in
01:08:35.200 the comments
01:08:35.560 saying that
01:08:36.660 my go-to
01:08:37.660 persuasion
01:08:38.380 phrase is
01:08:39.060 would you
01:08:39.520 agree
01:08:39.880 it is
01:08:43.940 that's a
01:08:44.520 persuasion
01:08:45.000 phrase
01:08:45.480 but I
01:08:46.240 only use
01:08:46.720 it on
01:08:47.100 things which
01:08:47.620 I think
01:08:48.140 you would
01:08:48.700 agree on
01:08:49.240 but by
01:08:51.060 the way
01:08:51.280 you would
01:08:51.540 do that
01:08:51.820 in person
01:08:52.260 if you're
01:08:52.700 a salesperson
01:08:53.400 you try
01:08:54.580 to get
01:08:54.840 somebody to
01:08:55.360 agree with
01:08:56.040 as many
01:08:56.420 things as
01:08:56.920 possible
01:08:57.400 if you
01:08:58.580 know that
01:08:58.980 later there's
01:08:59.560 going to be
01:08:59.840 a disagreement
01:09:00.340 so you want
01:09:01.560 to pace
01:09:02.020 it's called
01:09:02.680 pacing
01:09:03.060 have you
01:09:03.380 heard of
01:09:03.620 it
01:09:04.060 and pacing
01:09:05.780 means
01:09:06.280 that you
01:09:07.420 agree with
01:09:08.100 everything you
01:09:08.620 can agree
01:09:09.020 with
01:09:09.320 and that
01:09:10.380 gives you
01:09:10.740 some hope
01:09:11.540 that the
01:09:12.800 person will
01:09:13.240 listen to
01:09:13.640 you
01:09:13.940 have you
01:09:14.760 have you
01:09:15.080 seen people
01:09:15.520 try to
01:09:15.900 debate
01:09:16.240 when
01:09:17.580 everything
01:09:18.340 one person
01:09:19.120 says gets
01:09:19.620 questioned
01:09:20.020 there's
01:09:21.120 nowhere you
01:09:21.580 can go
01:09:22.020 you gotta
01:09:23.580 let them
01:09:23.980 have a
01:09:24.300 win
01:09:24.540 otherwise
01:09:25.560 there's
01:09:26.060 no point
01:09:26.520 in the
01:09:26.700 conversation
01:09:27.200 even if
01:09:28.160 you're not
01:09:28.540 quite sure
01:09:29.720 that they
01:09:30.060 won
01:09:30.340 you gotta
01:09:31.560 say
01:09:32.020 would you
01:09:33.040 agree
01:09:33.420 and make
01:09:34.920 sure that
01:09:35.300 there are
01:09:35.520 at least
01:09:35.800 some basic
01:09:36.340 things you
01:09:36.820 all agree
01:09:37.220 on
01:09:37.460 and then
01:09:38.020 maybe you
01:09:38.460 can have
01:09:38.720 a conversation
01:09:39.280 so yes
01:09:40.700 would you
01:09:41.240 agree
01:09:41.580 is
01:09:42.080 persuasion
01:09:42.840 but it's
01:09:44.000 also just
01:09:44.700 basic
01:09:45.120 communication
01:09:45.900 and the
01:09:47.040 difference
01:09:47.380 between
01:09:47.800 effective
01:09:48.560 communication
01:09:49.300 and persuasion
01:09:50.140 not that
01:09:51.640 big
01:09:51.940 not that
01:09:53.060 big
01:09:53.280 all right
01:09:54.420 so in
01:09:55.240 summary
01:09:55.560 I'd like
01:09:56.180 to see
01:09:56.600 a
01:09:56.880 place
01:09:58.620 where
01:09:58.920 all the
01:09:59.300 list
01:09:59.780 persuasion
01:10:00.700 relative
01:10:01.480 to the
01:10:02.960 election
01:10:03.260 is put
01:10:04.320 in one
01:10:04.640 place
01:10:05.040 and then
01:10:05.900 ladies and
01:10:06.560 gentlemen
01:10:06.800 you've got
01:10:07.460 something
01:10:07.800 I don't know
01:10:09.220 how many times
01:10:09.780 I've told you
01:10:10.260 this but the
01:10:11.180 speech writer
01:10:11.940 is one with
01:10:12.580 more power
01:10:13.340 than you
01:10:13.680 think
01:10:14.000 the person
01:10:15.240 who can
01:10:15.620 frame a
01:10:16.280 thing
01:10:16.480 better
01:10:16.840 has more
01:10:18.360 power than
01:10:18.800 you think
01:10:19.280 the best
01:10:20.460 idea
01:10:21.060 whoever has
01:10:22.620 the best
01:10:22.980 idea
01:10:23.420 is in
01:10:24.600 charge
01:10:24.960 this is
01:10:27.400 the best
01:10:27.820 idea
01:10:28.200 the best
01:10:29.760 idea
01:10:30.180 is to
01:10:30.800 have
01:10:31.040 several
01:10:31.720 list
01:10:32.440 persuasion
01:10:33.300 nuggets
01:10:34.340 of 12
01:10:35.240 items
01:10:35.680 no more
01:10:36.220 just get
01:10:37.140 good 12
01:10:37.720 12 good
01:10:38.600 ones
01:10:38.880 or less
01:10:39.900 and make
01:10:41.120 them available
01:10:41.640 to everybody
01:10:42.300 so that
01:10:43.380 whenever a
01:10:43.880 conversation
01:10:44.340 comes up
01:10:44.960 you can
01:10:45.260 say
01:10:45.520 well
01:10:46.000 here's
01:10:46.460 12
01:10:46.760 things
01:10:47.060 that
01:10:47.220 disagree
01:10:47.640 and
01:10:49.280 so that's
01:10:49.880 what I
01:10:50.400 do
01:10:50.620 all right
01:10:53.420 ladies and
01:10:54.260 gentlemen
