Real Coffee with Scott Adams - Episode 2634 CWSA 10⧸20⧸24

00:00:00.000 going to be another amazing day today. I don't know if you're ready for it. Are you ready

00:00:05.940 for all the amazingness? It's going to be coming at you.

00:00:20.660 Good morning, everybody, and welcome. Hey, shut up, me.

00:00:30.820 Every now and then, my second feed comes alive. I don't know why.

00:00:36.480 Well, welcome to Coffee with Scott Adams. The best time you've ever had in your life,

00:00:40.500 if you'd like to take it up to a new level, a level that nobody can even understand with

00:00:45.100 their tiny, shiny human brains. All you need for that is a cup or mug or a glass of tank or

00:00:49.960 chalice, a stein, a canteen, a jug or a flask, a vessel of any kind. Fill it with your favorite

00:00:54.880 liquid. I like coffee. And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure, the dopamine of

00:01:00.240 the day, the thing that makes everything better. It's called the simultaneous sip. It happens

00:01:04.640 now. Go.

00:01:06.080 Meanwhile, all of the lazy podcasters taking the morning off. My goodness. My goodness.

00:01:19.500 Do you feel sorry for them? Their lack of energy? Their low output? Their unproductive

00:01:26.500 ways? But now you're here with me.

00:01:28.960 We got news. I was reading an article by Ricky Schlott. I guess she writes for the New York

00:01:39.540 Post. And it wasn't an article. It was actually a post on X. And she said, public service announcement

00:01:47.180 to single men. There are literally so many single women sitting around at bars waiting to get 1.00

00:01:54.900 hit on all of a sudden. Go outside for once and the ratio will be massively in your favor.

00:02:02.740 Really? In my entire life, the only time I've ever seen a woman in a bar who wanted to get hit on 1.00

00:02:12.800 was on television. I've never seen that in the real world. In the real world, they're either with a guy

00:02:19.100 or with their with their friends in an impenetrable circle. And they're all waiting for the same six

00:02:25.400 foot tall guy who's got $200,000 income at age 22. So no, going to a bar is the worst place you're

00:02:34.280 ever going to meet anybody. And by the way, maybe you want to meet somebody who doesn't go to a bar to

00:02:39.180 meet somebody. So no, worst advice of all time. Don't go to a bar to meet a guy. Anyway.

00:02:51.980 Speaking of that, if you are subscribing to the Dilbert comic, it's now called Dilbert Reborn.

00:02:58.220 If you subscribed either on X or on the Locals platform at Scott Adams.Locals, you would know

00:03:04.200 that there is a mistake in today's Dilbert comic. My comic is written and the first draft of the art

00:03:15.460 is drawn by me. But then I sent it out to my assistant. And my assistant does the final art

00:03:22.200 and the color. And I don't see it until I'm ready to post it. I could. I mean, I could see it early.

00:03:27.160 I just don't look. And this morning, I realized that my comic where I shook the intern who was

00:03:34.200 born in India, is using online dating and it's not working out too well for him. But my art director

00:03:46.120 colored him the same color as the rest of the white characters. So you'll see that the shook the intern 0.67

00:03:53.480 has changed his race for one day. I'll change it back after we're done. But for one day, 0.73

00:03:59.880 a shook the intern is looking all pink and Caucasian. Anyway, but we'll change that. And 10 years ago, 0.51

00:04:10.920 the comic that's running also on the on the same online places, if you subscribe on X to Dilbert or on

00:04:17.880 Locals, you'll see that 10 years ago, the comic that Dilbert was running is a robot that's taking over for

00:04:26.760 management in the company. And the robot is trying to navigate the fact that all humans are liars.

00:04:37.320 And I was thinking this, that was 10 years ago. Now we're right on the cusp

00:04:42.200 of having an actual robot boss, because it isn't hard to imagine you could have a robot that could,

00:04:47.960 I don't know, monitor the metrics of your performance and have conversations with you to motivate you.

00:04:55.720 Hey, I noticed you're not doing so well today. Everything okay? So you could probably have a

00:05:00.760 robot boss anytime you want it. I mean, I think the technology is basically there. However,

00:05:08.200 how in the world is a robot ever going to navigate the fact that people lie all the time?

00:05:14.120 Yeah, because your real boss is going to go up to you and say, all right, what do you absolutely

00:05:20.760 need to do your job? Well, I'm going to need 10% more in my budget next year. All right, I'm going

00:05:26.920 to cut your budget 10%. No, wait, what, what? I just said I want 10% more in my budget, or I couldn't

00:05:33.320 possibly do my job. Then your boss says, I know, I heard you. But we're going to cut you 10%.

00:05:38.760 10%. What? Yeah, you just do it anyway. How's the robot going to do that? The robot's going to say,

00:05:46.200 you need 10% more. I do not have a mechanism for funding. I do not know what to do, because you

00:05:53.080 need 10% more, but I cannot get 10% more. There is no path forward. I give up. So we're either going to

00:06:01.720 have to teach our robots how to detect lies with certainty, which maybe you could actually do.

00:06:09.960 Or we're going to have to teach them that everything that people say is a lie.

00:06:13.880 And in order to handle that, you have to lie back.

00:06:18.440 So in the real world, the way it goes is, I need 10% more, which is a lie. Then the boss says,

00:06:24.360 you can't have it. Because my boss said, I can't raise the budget, which is also a lie.

00:06:33.000 Because you're going to spend the money somewhere else, but the boss didn't lower your budget.

00:06:37.480 You're just saying that. So you usually got the employee lying to the boss, the boss lying to the

00:06:42.600 employee. But over time, the liars have figured out how to operate in a world where everything is a lie.

00:06:49.400 How in the world does a robot learn to operate in that world?

00:06:56.040 Maybe it can be done. I wouldn't rule it down. Maybe they can do it better.

00:07:00.680 But it's certainly an interesting question. If everything is a lie all the time, and that really

00:07:06.440 is our world, how does a robot figure that out? I don't know.

00:07:10.600 Anyway, if you're worried about how to get a date, and your dating apps are not working, I have a

00:07:20.200 great idea. You should become a music executive if you're a guy. Apparently, if you're a music

00:07:27.480 executive, oh God, can you do things. I don't even want to tell you the things you can get away with if

00:07:33.880 you're a music executive. Most of it's illegal, unethical and illegal. But it will certainly

00:07:41.640 end your dating problems. According to Pussycat Dolls singer Kaya Jones, she was one of those people 0.99

00:07:48.680 who was on the inside to know that Diddy's downfall is, quote, bigger than just the rapper himself,

00:07:57.320 and has the potential to bring down some big entertainment executives who she claims were

00:08:04.600 all about the sexual abuse. Now, at this point, there are enough people who do know what was going

00:08:12.440 on, who all have the same story, which is, this is much bigger than Diddy. And I think that sounds

00:08:20.120 right. It does sound bigger than Diddy. Of course, if your job is to be one of the Pussycat Dolls and to

00:08:30.120 essentially sell sex that comes with noise, you're probably in your most dangerous situation when it

00:08:38.520 comes to those executives. But more to come. Will we ever find out? Will we ever find out what was up

00:08:48.360 with Diddy? I think the Diddy thing is going to go the way of Epstein, which is not the most, you know,

00:08:54.440 innovative thing to say because a lot of people think that. I just don't think we live in a world

00:08:59.800 where the the people who are still rich enough can ever go to jail. I've got a feeling that

00:09:07.320 Weinstein must have pissed off somebody important. I feel like the only reason he went to jail

00:09:12.600 is that he wasn't on the inside anymore. Like there was something he did that made somebody mad or,

00:09:19.320 you know, you did a bad deal with somebody, something. I feel like there's more to that story.

00:09:27.240 Well, anyway, according to Patty Nyberg at Task and Purpose, there's now an army device that can 0.98

00:09:34.920 determine if you've got a traumatic brain injury just with a drop of blood. That's actually a really big

00:09:40.360 deal. If you could take a quick drop of blood and you would know if somebody had traumatic brain

00:09:46.440 injury or not, it would change how you handled it. And that's pretty big deal. Now, you might say to

00:09:54.440 yourself, but Scott, how often do you really need to use a tool to take a drop of blood to determine if

00:10:00.440 somebody has a traumatic brain injury? Well, I would recommend it for all of the hosts of MSNBC

00:10:05.960 because they clearly look brain damaged and it's just one drop of blood. It's not a lot. It's not

00:10:14.520 a lot to ask. I would just like to see the main hosts just see if they have any traumatic brain

00:10:20.280 injuries because it looks like it. They act like it. Anyway, I saw Jordan Conradson writing for the

00:10:29.240 Gateway Pundit talking about all the various videos that allege that Kamala Harris looks drunk. 0.52

00:10:36.200 Now, I looked at all the videos and I said to myself, she does look drunk in every one of them. 1.00

00:10:42.360 At least one of them might be manipulated and the others might be just a case of her 0.98

00:10:47.960 being exuberant and joyful. But here's what my takeaway from that is. If you can't tell

00:10:56.280 if your candidate for president is drunk off of her ass or if that's just the way she normally acts, 1.00

00:11:04.680 isn't that enough reason not to vote for her? If you can't tell by looking at her? I don't know.

00:11:11.480 That's either totally drunk or that's just the way she is. It almost doesn't matter if she's actually 0.98

00:11:20.600 drunk, does it? Because I don't want that representing me. Like, do you want her to go over to the, 0.77

00:11:28.200 you know, over to some big, uh, G20 or something? And everybody's like, is she drunk or is, or is that,

00:11:35.640 I think she's drunk. No, no, no. That's the way she acts. Seriously. That, that's the way she acts. 1.00

00:11:43.560 That's not drunk. I don't know. Well, now that you mention it, she does look drunk. 1.00

00:11:49.800 That's not your best foot forward. There really isn't. One thing nobody ever asked about Trump,

00:11:57.880 is he drunk right now? Nobody ever asked that. There's reason for that. All right.

00:12:06.120 Um, Laura Loomer gives us a warning about the election claims. You've heard the term, uh, uh, 0.94

00:12:15.400 Joshua, Joshua Steinman taught me that, uh, at least on X, he taught the rest of us that there's a,

00:12:24.760 there's a name for it. It's called the Buffalo run. So a Buffalo run is where fake news is created

00:12:32.120 that will get some group of people to embrace it and say, oh, that thing happened. That's outrageous.

00:12:37.560 That thing happened. And then they debunk it. So the, the point is to get people to embrace

00:12:43.320 something that's very untrue until they ruin their credibility by believing it in public.

00:12:49.400 And then anything that they say after that, you say, well, oh my goodness. Well,

00:12:54.280 isn't that the same person who said X? So the Buffalo run is the big cracking like claim that

00:13:04.520 turns out not to be true. And, uh, Laura warns us and I will reiterate that just like our prior elections,

00:13:13.880 there will be incredible claims of cheating.

00:13:19.240 Most of those incredible claims of cheating, most of them won't be true.

00:13:24.600 Does it, does everybody here get that? That whatever you hear about cheating and no matter

00:13:30.920 who it comes from, no matter what entity publishes it, no matter what writer writes it,

00:13:36.920 no matter how many witnesses there are, almost all of them are going to be fake.

00:13:43.320 Even if the election is totally rigged because the ones you're going to be,

00:13:48.360 the ones you're going to see are the ones that are not hidden.

00:13:51.160 And the things not hidden are going to be hoaxes. So you're going to see a lot of

00:13:57.800 fake claims that will be tremendously detailed and will be absolutely fake and could come from

00:14:04.600 sources that you really, really trust. So just assume here, here's the rule that I would use.

00:14:12.760 Assume that individual claims are probably not true. They could be, but probably not.

00:14:18.360 But also assume that the system itself is not dependable, meaning that we don't have a way to

00:14:26.440 know if the system is accurate or not, unless you got lucky and caught something you weren't supposed to

00:14:32.360 to catch. But we don't really have a way to know that the election systems are all working okay.

00:14:39.000 We only know what we caught. So if you know what you know, then you know something. But nobody knows what

00:14:47.400 they don't know. Which pocket do I have a dollar in, people? Here, we'll do a test. This is an election

00:14:58.360 test. Which pocket, left or right, do I have a dollar in right now? You don't know. Well, the answer is,

00:15:08.040 I don't have a dollar in either of my pockets. But the point is, how could you be certain where

00:15:13.400 my dollar was? But at the end of this election, people are going to say, I'm certain that it was

00:15:18.920 a good election. How? How? How could you possibly know I didn't have a dollar in my pocket? How do you

00:15:26.920 know the unknowable? How do you know that a state actor didn't hack it and left no trace? How in the

00:15:33.880 world do you know anything is fair? The only thing you could know for sure is if you found something,

00:15:40.200 there was enough time, there's never enough time, you had standing, you never have a standing.

00:15:44.920 You know, in this weird hypothetical world, you might be able to catch something.

00:15:50.360 But you can't prove something didn't happen. And you know that they're already brainwashing the public

00:15:57.240 so that the public thinks they can tell when something didn't happen.

00:16:00.360 Nope. You cannot tell if I have something in my pocket or not. You do not have the ability

00:16:09.000 to know either one. But if I stood up and reached into my pocket and took out a dollar,

00:16:15.560 you might know that. But if I don't do that, you don't know for sure what's in my pocket and you

00:16:21.880 don't really have a way of finding out. There's nothing in my pocket.

00:16:26.760 Okay. We're getting reports of big numbers for early voters. We'd like to think that means

00:16:35.240 something, but it might not. It could mean that both sides are just really incentivized. I think

00:16:40.680 that's true. I think both sides have a lot of energy for voting. But we're seeing that even in Georgia,

00:16:47.240 the early voting is huge. Now, I'm seeing the conservatives say there, because the early voting

00:16:54.520 is huge, we have proven that there's no voter suppression and, you know, there's no problem

00:17:01.160 with people getting IDs and stuff like that. That doesn't prove that. You can't say that just

00:17:08.840 because voting is at an all-time high or even the early voting, that doesn't tell you that everybody

00:17:15.560 could vote. They're barely related. So don't do that. It just makes you sound dumb. What you can

00:17:23.800 say is that there's a lot of voting. That's all you can say. You can't say that there were 100 people

00:17:29.320 who wanted to vote, but they couldn't figure out how, because there might be. There might be 100 people

00:17:34.920 who didn't get to vote. How would you know? Again, how would you know that somebody didn't vote?

00:17:40.920 The only thing you know is how many voted. It's the same problem. If, in fact, there were people

00:17:46.680 who didn't vote and you don't know their names and nobody told you about them, how would you know if

00:17:50.440 they existed or not? Now, I suspect there's not a big problem with people who want to vote and can't,

00:17:57.480 but you wouldn't know because people did vote. That's not the evidence that there are people who

00:18:03.080 can or cannot vote. Anyway, according to CNN's Harry Enten, Trump's net favorability numbers are

00:18:12.600 better than ever. In 2016, he was negative 27 on favorability. Then in 2020, he was negative 12.

00:18:20.760 In 2024, he was negative 9, which would be a disaster for Democrats if that number held.

00:18:27.560 Well, I would like to reiterate one of my best predictions ever, that I said that when Trump

00:18:36.760 left office after 2020, that he would be more popular every year that he's out of office.

00:18:44.680 And there it is. And my reasoning for that is that I knew that the hoaxes and just the ridiculous,

00:18:53.400 those fake news about him would eventually fade away because that stuff doesn't necessarily even

00:18:59.320 get written in history books. But what you remembered would be, wait a minute, inflation

00:19:06.600 wasn't so bad. We didn't have wars. So you would remember his results, but the, you know, the claims

00:19:13.720 that were just ridiculous would sort of fade away in time. And to some extent that happened. Although the

00:19:19.800 new hoaxes are coming in big and strong, CNN's also Harry Enten is talking about

00:19:28.920 the margin of black men voting for Democrats versus Republicans. In Obama's election, he had an 81 point

00:19:38.520 margin among black men. So he had 81 points more than his competitor in black men. Clinton still did good. 0.99

00:19:48.200 Hillary 63. Biden lost a little more down to 53. And now Harris is down to 41. Harris has half

00:20:00.280 the popularity of black men as Obama. What do you think that's about? Do you think that is sexist?

00:20:10.120 Because Obama thinks that the black men are being sexist. Do you think that's what's going on?

00:20:15.320 I did actually see some street interviews where some black men said exactly that. I'm not going to

00:20:22.120 vote for a woman. But they didn't look like they were necessarily the people who were voting at all.

00:20:27.880 The people who said that on camera, I'd never vote for a woman. I just, there was something about

00:20:34.600 their vibe that didn't say, I'm going to vote for anybody. Just, I couldn't imagine them being there

00:20:40.760 on election day. But maybe. You never know. So I don't know what that's about, but Trump's doing

00:20:48.120 great. And I guess Trump's going to the black barbershop. Is that today? Can you give me a fact

00:20:54.200 check? When is Trump going to the black barbershop in Pittsburgh or someplace? I forget where. But that's

00:21:01.480 going to be really fun. See, I think every time you see Trump working with real people, then he's a

00:21:09.480 Hitler messaging that's coming just looks more ridiculous. If you only knew him from his speeches, 0.91

00:21:17.000 and then the Democrats are framing him as Hitler or Mussolini, you could look at his speeches and say,

00:21:22.280 yes, he's a powerful man saying things powerful. Yes, just like a dictator. But then you see him

00:21:30.280 talking to real people. And you can't even imagine it. It becomes unimaginable that he would walk out

00:21:38.600 of that barbershop and he's Hitler when he walks out the door. It's not imaginable. You literally can't 0.59

00:21:45.960 imagine it. So it is such a good move to bring him down to what I call the retail level, where he's

00:21:53.320 talking to voters and not talking to pundits and interviewers. It's perfect. So I think that's a

00:22:00.600 winning play in his final days of the election. I think it's unbeatable, actually, in terms of votes.

00:22:07.240 Let's see. Real clear politics has Trump with a 93.2% chance of winning the electoral college,

00:22:18.360 but they still have Harris winning the popular vote. So that would be, we'll talk about another

00:22:24.440 poll that says the opposite. This says that Trump will win the popular vote as well. But this would

00:22:30.520 be the worst case scenario. The worst case scenario is that Harris gets the most votes in the country,

00:22:39.960 but Trump wins anyway, the way he won against Clinton. Because then the people who are unhappy

00:22:49.320 can say, it's not really fair. We should get rid of the electoral college and we should have done it

00:22:54.200 retroactively. And then there's going to be protests in the streets. And then you'd sort of understand it.

00:23:00.440 Wouldn't you? You'd say to yourself, well, the majority didn't get its way. So you can kind of

00:23:08.440 understand why they'd be mad. But suppose it went the other way. Suppose Trump got a big electoral

00:23:16.040 victory, but also squeaked down a victory in the popular vote. Feels different, doesn't it?

00:23:25.000 Even a 1% difference, if he could just make it in the popular vote, then the story becomes he won the

00:23:31.640 electoral college. And guess what? Had there been no electoral college, he still won. If we can say

00:23:40.040 that at the end, that he would have won with or without an electoral college, then we've said something.

00:23:46.040 And I think that the way our brains are organized as Americans, that if you can win both of those,

00:23:53.960 it's like winning two elections, effectively. It's like two elections. So if he can win them both,

00:24:00.040 that's going to be impressive.

00:24:07.480 Otherwise, I think you're going to see the color revolution. By the way, do you know what that is?

00:24:12.680 So if there's anybody here who doesn't know what the color revolution refers to,

00:24:16.040 it's how America and the CIA take over other countries. A big part of it is they encourage

00:24:24.200 and pay and organize street protests of whoever the muscle is in that country. So if it's the unions,

00:24:32.280 then they back them and the unions protest. If it's America, it might be Black Lives Matter and Antifa.

00:24:38.680 But the people on the street are fake. They think they're real. The people on the street have real

00:24:44.840 emotions and believe they're there for real reasons. But they wouldn't be there, except they're

00:24:49.880 organized. And it's the organizing that's the fake part. So what we expect is that when Trump first

00:24:58.120 got elected, and by the way, this has all been war-gamed by Democrats. We know this. We know this for

00:25:04.200 sure. That when he got elected the first time, they put the people on the streets, the Black Lives

00:25:10.360 Matter fake, Antifa fake. And that was to create the impression that the public was against Trump.

00:25:18.760 So if you could see every day there's massive protests, you'd say, well, the public must not

00:25:23.800 like him. And then if they moved against him in a political way, and the fake news was against them,

00:25:29.320 and the lawfare was against them, it would all look consistent. It would look like, oh,

00:25:34.200 he's a Putin. I guess everything's against him. So if he's removed, I guess we'd feel all right

00:25:41.320 about that, because the street protests would end, and it all seemed like it made sense.

00:25:47.240 So if you're going to overthrow a country, whether it's the CIA overthrowing our own country,

00:25:52.760 which I do believe that they tried to do and have done in the past, you need the muscle on the street.

00:25:59.880 And to get that, it would be really, really helpful if Trump didn't win the popular vote.

00:26:07.880 So the street muscle problem gets complicated if the majority clearly wanted Trump to be president.

00:26:15.880 All right, let's see what else. Polling company Atlas Intel has a new poll. Now, if that doesn't

00:26:24.760 mean anything to you, because you say to yourself, Atlas Intel, I never even heard of them. Well,

00:26:30.600 it turns out that they were the best polling company last cycle. So they had the most accurate results.

00:26:36.440 And do you remember I told you that everybody would be moving into accurate mode when it got

00:26:43.080 close to the election? Because you have to be accurate when you're close, because that's the

00:26:47.720 one that they'll monitor. Nobody's going to say how accurate you were in August, because it can't be

00:26:53.960 proven. You don't know if you were accurate in August, because there was no election. But you do know if

00:26:59.720 you're going to be accurate in November, because there will be an actual election. So that's the only one

00:27:03.880 you got to get right. You got to get the last ones right. But there's two things going on.

00:27:11.480 And I believe that one of them is crooked. Maybe both of them are. The one thing that's crooked

00:27:18.200 is that I think that there are some fake polls that are going to try to make the election look like

00:27:23.240 it's too close to call. Therefore, if there's any cheating, they can say, well, look, we had several

00:27:30.360 polls that said it was too close to call. And Harris won by .0001. Totally not surprising.

00:27:37.800 So why would you even think there was any cheating? That was well within the expected range of

00:27:42.280 possibilities. So part of the polls, I believe, this is my belief based on living in the real world,

00:27:52.280 are fake. And they're fake to make them as close as possible so that the cheat is possible. That's what I

00:27:59.080 think. That's speculative. It's just based on living in the real world and based on what I'd do if I had

00:28:05.640 control over bad things. But separate from that, there will be the pollsters who are not in on the cheat.

00:28:13.560 But they do want to make sure their numbers are good. And maybe they wanted to stay consistent with

00:28:19.240 other pollsters during the year because they would look like they were crazy if they were way off.

00:28:24.920 So everybody sort of groups together during the year just so none of them look crazy. But at the

00:28:30.120 end, they bifurcate. One group goes toward the truth, like probably Atlas Intel is. And one group goes

00:28:38.280 toward the tie. Oh, it's so close that no matter what happens would be possible. And anything's

00:28:46.440 possible now. So you're going to see both of those things happening. Atlas Intel says Trump would win

00:28:52.680 the national vote by three. Just hold that in your, put that in your brain for a second. The most accurate

00:29:02.280 pollster, and one that in my opinion is not one of the ones who's trying to be fake,

00:29:08.440 but one of the ones who's trying to be as real as possible, especially at the end.

00:29:13.720 They have him winning the national vote, not the electoral vote. He wins that also. He wins every

00:29:18.840 state. But he'd win the national vote by three. Republicans don't do that. So if he does,

00:29:30.200 it's everything. It's a landslide. So the biggest glaring light is this poll.

00:29:38.840 There's lots of other polls, and I wouldn't ignore them. But there's one that's better than the other

00:29:45.000 polls. And Rasmussen will be up there too. So make sure you're watching Rasmussen. They typically

00:29:51.960 end up in the top five of the pollsters. And Atlas Intel, also a top five. So they have both swung to

00:30:01.400 Trump. So here's what Trump is doing according to Atlas Intel in the various swing states.

00:30:10.360 Pennsylvania up 3.3. Michigan up 2.8. Georgia up 1.4. Arizona up 0.6. Nevada up 0.3.

00:30:20.680 North Carolina up 0.7. And North Carolina Harris is up 0.7. And Harris is up in Wisconsin 0.7.

00:30:31.800 So I correct myself. So Trump was ahead in five out of seven. And then they have him in the electoral

00:30:40.760 vote, 286 to 252, which is not as big a difference as you might imagine.

00:30:47.560 I think there's a betting. I think the betting markets have Trump way ahead again. But I wouldn't

00:30:57.720 trust the betting markets for a prediction. All right.

00:31:02.120 Here's something that is true that I hadn't thought about so much. Patrick Bat-David said to

00:31:14.360 Trump, I guess yesterday, you kind of did kill mainstream media. And Trump said, I did. I'm very

00:31:20.360 proud of it too. He actually did. That's a true thing. That the entire mainstream media,

00:31:27.720 at least let's say 95% of it, was completely against Trump when he entered the race and he

00:31:33.880 destroyed the entire industry. Now, maybe it would have happened on its own because there were other,

00:31:40.040 you know, economic forces, but the credibility of the news is completely gone. And he did that.

00:31:48.040 Remember what? So I'll brag again. In 2015, I told you Trump would change more than politics.

00:31:54.360 He would change the way you saw reality itself. This is that. Reality itself used to be that if

00:32:03.800 it's on the news, it's probably true. Today's reality is that the news and the truth are just

00:32:09.480 completely unrelated. I mean, they might overlap, but you wouldn't know. You'd have no way to know.

00:32:14.680 It's just propaganda. Now, that's something we know that we didn't know before. And

00:32:20.360 I could see it coming like it was a train coming right at me. Reality was going to completely change.

00:32:28.280 It's completely different now.

00:33:30.520 All right. So you might know that the publication called The Atlantic used to be something like a

00:33:39.640 regular publication, but now it's just a propaganda vehicle owned by Steve Jobs' widow, who's a good

00:33:47.080 friend of Kamala Harris. So here's one of their headlines, The Atlantic headline. Trump is speaking

00:33:53.080 like Hitler, Stalin, and Mussolini. Now, at this point, they're just being stupid and funny, aren't

00:33:59.000 they? Like it used to be that I thought, oh, I have to go say something to debunk this. But do you

00:34:08.120 need to debunk it anymore? This is a propaganda outfit. As long as you know that they're not

00:34:15.240 anywhere near the news business, and they don't try to be, and they're not intending to be, it's just

00:34:20.920 propaganda. I'm not saying that they're biased. I'm saying that they are properly a propaganda tool

00:34:29.240 that is pretending to be a different thing. That's different from the news that's biased.

00:34:35.880 Very different. All right. The news is very biased, no matter what news you're looking at.

00:34:40.840 But this isn't bias. This isn't bias. This is just a propaganda outlet. So MSNBC

00:34:49.480 is not the same business as CNN. CNN and Fox News, just to balance out the point, are in the business of

00:35:01.400 news, but the opinion people are biased in one direction in one case and the other direction in

00:35:07.640 the other case. Now, that's well disclosed, meaning that if you're watching either one, you've got a

00:35:13.720 pretty good idea what you're watching. And as I've said, both Fox News and now CNN, they didn't do it as

00:35:20.040 much before. They do have credible voices. So you've at least heard the other side. You know,

00:35:26.600 it's way more biased in each case, but you're going to hear the other side. MSNBC doesn't even do that.

00:35:34.600 The Atlantic doesn't do that. These are pure propaganda pieces. As long as you realize that

00:35:40.760 if you're watching MSNBC, you didn't even know what news was. That's a true statement. If you're watching

00:35:50.760 MSNBC because you think you're watching news, you are in a different universe. No, they're not even

00:35:58.600 trying to be news. They are only a propaganda outfit. And if I were just saying that to be biased,

00:36:05.560 I would be saying it against CNN. And CNN in the first election was just a propaganda outfit.

00:36:14.920 They've changed ownership. It's obvious that their preferences have changed for how to present

00:36:21.240 themselves. And right now I would say they're a biased news outfit, but a news outfit. I would say

00:36:29.960 that Fox is a biased news outfit, but a news outfit. The Atlantic is not a news outfit or even an opinion

00:36:39.480 piece. It's just propaganda. And the Washington Post is a bit of a hybrid, but more of a propaganda

00:36:47.400 outfit. And MSNBC is nothing but propaganda. You're not even going to hear the other side.

00:36:57.880 Anyway, and I wonder how big the mental health crisis will be. And at what point can you blame the

00:37:05.320 propagandists? Let's connect some dots. Let's see. We believe that the ripple effect of slavery

00:37:16.280 from a couple hundred years ago, or whatever it was, is affecting black Americans today to their

00:37:23.800 economic and maybe even psychological detriment. I agree with that. I don't know how to measure it.

00:37:30.280 And obviously people are affected in different ways. Some are not affected at all, but it's true. 0.65

00:37:36.920 There's a ripple effect and it's gone, you know, many decades and it makes a difference.

00:37:43.080 Now, let me ask you this question. We've watched the fake news for over eight years,

00:37:49.080 spew propaganda that half of the country are racist and pro Hitler,

00:37:55.240 and they live in a hellscape and they're unscientific. So the world's going to burn up.

00:38:01.560 Which of those two things is harming more people in 2024? Well, look at the therapy. What do they say

00:38:12.040 in therapy? Oh, I live in this world with Trump's a racist and everything's bad and I've got to,

00:38:19.240 I've got to transition myself and now I wish I went back in some cases. And then the propaganda says

00:38:26.920 that Hitler's taken over and the planet's going to burn because Hitler's not going to let the climate 0.99

00:38:32.600 change people do what they need to do. What do you think hurts people more?

00:38:40.040 I don't know. I don't know how to measure it. But if I had to just guess,

00:38:46.120 I would guess that black people are over slavery way more than the cat ladies are over Hitler. 1.00

00:38:54.520 That's what it feels like to me. And when I say black people are over slavery,

00:38:59.480 I don't mean they're over slavery. I mean, I'm comparing two things. The people who are currently

00:39:06.360 out of their minds about Trump and they believe that he's going to have the military round them up

00:39:12.600 and put them in camps or something. They've got a current real mental crisis. If you're suffering

00:39:18.920 from the lag effect of slavery, which I admit is completely real, there's definitely a trickle effect,

00:39:30.920 ripple effect that affects real people. You're probably not thinking about it every minute.

00:39:35.560 I mean, I don't know. Are you? You could give me a fact check. But do you wake up thinking about your

00:39:42.760 your legacy of slavery if you're a black American or just go to your job?

00:39:48.360 And maybe if the if the topic comes up as an intellectual discussion, maybe you say to yourself, you know what?

00:39:55.560 I might be making 20% more if not for that. So, you know, maybe something's owed to me.

00:40:02.440 That feels to me almost like an academic

00:40:06.200 discussion, at least for some number of the population. For others, everybody's different,

00:40:10.440 of course. But I would say the Atlantic and MSNBC are far more dangerous than the legacy of slavery

00:40:19.320 at the moment. The legacy of slavery, of course, far, far worse if you look at the totality of history.

00:40:30.040 Far, far worse. All right, let's talk about this enemy within. So I feel like the

00:40:37.640 the Republicans are sort of ignoring this. And I'm not sure that's the wrong answer.

00:40:43.240 Because typically when the Democrats come up with a new Trump hoax, people like me go nuts and try to

00:40:50.120 like really concentrate on fixing the impression of it. It never makes any difference.

00:40:55.640 Because the Republicans knew from day one it was made up. And the Democrats are using it as a

00:41:01.560 recreational belief. And you can't talk somebody out of the recreational belief, because part of the

00:41:06.920 recreation is you trying to talk them out of it and then resisting. That's part of the fun.

00:41:13.000 is making you go crazy, trying to talk them out of something they don't really believe.

00:41:17.800 But they'd love to make you think they believe it.

00:41:22.120 How many people do you think really believe that Trump plans to round up his political enemies

00:41:28.200 with the military if he gets elected? How many people really think that? I mean,

00:41:35.400 it's fair to say that there are zero Republicans. Is that fair? Probably zero.

00:41:42.440 Like actually zero. Like you would search the whole earth and you wouldn't find one. That one Republican

00:41:48.120 who thinks that Trump is going to use the military to round up his enemies. That's the same person

00:41:54.280 who can't figure out how to get an ID to vote. Yeah. And it's also the same person on the Epstein list.

00:42:01.720 You know, the list of things that we'll never see and doesn't probably exist.

00:42:05.880 But the pundits like Donnie Deutsch on MSNBC, they will tell you with pained, pained looks,

00:42:19.800 faces that look like they're just ready to be carried off to the gulags.

00:42:25.320 Oh, Trump is going to round me up. So Donnie Deutsch asked, who did he ask?

00:42:33.000 What's his name? Al Sharpton. If Al was worried that Trump would round them up and they said they were

00:42:40.840 both worried. So Al Sharpton is worried. Trump's got him on the list to round them up.

00:42:46.200 And Donnie Deutsch has the same problem. Thinks he's on the list. Going to get rounded up. Well,

00:42:56.520 no, they're not. Do you know why they're not going to get rounded up?

00:43:00.280 Number one, if they didn't do any crimes, and I'm not aware of any, they don't have any chance of

00:43:08.760 getting rounded up. Do you know why? Because Republicans. Republicans are not going to be

00:43:14.680 on board with rounding up people for non-crimes, even if we don't like them. That's what makes a

00:43:22.040 Republican. The Republican says, I'm looking at the law and the Constitution. Are you rounding up

00:43:31.400 somebody who didn't break a law and did not violate the Constitution? I'm out. That's every

00:43:39.880 Republican. There's no Republican who wants Al Sharpton to be rounded up because he says things we

00:43:46.200 don't like. None. There's nobody who wants that. Do you think Trump could get away with that?

00:43:53.080 He doesn't want to, first of all. But could he get away with it if he wanted to? Of course not.

00:43:58.360 No. But if it were the other way around, and the Democrats said, Trump's a Hitler, put him in jail

00:44:06.520 for anything you can get him on. It doesn't matter what the charge is. They could do that. And they're

00:44:12.760 trying. And it's right in front of you, and you don't have to wonder. But it doesn't work that way

00:44:18.040 the other way. The reason the Democrats are so afraid is that they know they're doing it right now

00:44:24.200 to Trump, trying to put him in jail for nothing because he's a political enemy.

00:44:30.520 So in their world, it's perfectly understandable that you would try to put somebody in jail on

00:44:36.200 made-up charges, so long as you didn't like them. It doesn't work that way the other way.

00:44:43.320 The conservatives simply don't think that way. Their entire game is constitution-law.

00:44:50.680 Law-constitution. Law-constitution. If they break the law, yes, coming after them hard. But short of that,

00:44:59.720 there's literally nothing to worry about. This is the smallest risk in the country by far. And Donnie

00:45:07.800 Deutsch is not important to anything. Did you ever hear anybody saying, I was going to vote for Trump,

00:45:14.600 but then I heard Donnie Deutsch crying, and so I changed my mind. No. No.

00:45:22.120 So anyway, this is all stupid. I guess what Trump is saying is he said that people like Adam Schiff

00:45:31.480 are domestic enemies, but he's also said that the domestic enemies, not necessarily Adam Schiff,

00:45:40.200 would be maybe causing a problem on election day if they try to riot. And they might use the

00:45:46.360 military to calm down the violence. That's pretty far from saying you're going to put Adam Schiff

00:45:51.640 in jail because you don't like his pencil neck. Schiff is not going to jail for his pencil neck.

00:45:58.760 That's not going to happen. But if anybody broke the law, no one's above the law, I've heard said.

00:46:09.400 Trump is the best swearing president of all. He uses curse words better than anybody ever has,

00:46:17.000 because he doesn't overuse it. And he uses it in the context where it makes sense. You know,

00:46:22.280 he doesn't do it in the State of the Union. He does it when he's doing a rally. But he had another one.

00:46:28.680 And I quote, he was at a rally. He says, you have to tell Kamala Harris that you've had enough,

00:46:34.760 that you just can't take it anymore. We just can't stand you. You're a shit vice president.

00:46:41.080 The worst. You're the worst vice president. Kamala, you're fired. Get the hell out of here. 1.00

00:46:45.640 And the crowd goes wild. Now, I feel it's necessary to fact check that. Trump's claim is that Kamala

00:46:55.480 Harris is a shit vice president. I got to fact check that because I like accuracy. You know,

00:47:03.000 even if it comes from somebody I appreciate, like Trump, I'm not going to let him get away with a fact

00:47:08.840 check that doesn't work. So here's the fact check. Kamala Harris is not fully comprised of fecal 1.00

00:47:15.400 matter. So when he calls her a shit vice president, he's using shit in a hyperbolic way,

00:47:24.520 sort of the way people talk, you know, in a normal way. So it's very important. She's not the enemy

00:47:33.480 within, but rather, this is an important point. The fecal matter that is inside her body does need 1.00

00:47:42.920 to get out eventually. So that's sort of an enemy within. So shit is actually an enemy within. Well,

00:47:49.240 all of us for, you know, if we eat right, but Kamala Harris is not necessarily fully fecal matter.

00:47:58.520 Now that's important to know because in an election, people say stuff like this, and I think it just

00:48:05.160 has to be called out. Now, am I doing it right? Am I doing it right where I interpret Trump to mean

00:48:12.680 literally what he said? I'm doing it right, right? Because you just have to act like you don't know

00:48:17.960 how words work in the real world. And then you can fact check Trump all day long. Well,

00:48:23.720 I think you meant this literally. And indeed, Obama, at the same time, Obama was giving a speech

00:48:30.680 in Las Vegas, where he said, you can't imagine that the president is kidding. You have to take

00:48:38.520 him seriously in everything he said. So that does suggest that we must take seriously that Kamala Harris

00:48:46.600 is comprised of actual fecal matter. But I don't think so. I think it's hyperbole.

00:48:54.680 Do you remember I told you that the story about China using a quantum computer to crack military

00:49:00.920 grade encryption? What did I say about that story? Does anybody remember?

00:49:05.800 So the story was that China had some scientific effort, and they cracked the strongest encryption

00:49:17.480 in the world. And what did I say? I said, if that were true, you would not know it. Because that would

00:49:26.840 be the biggest, most important military secret of all time. And the people who leaked that to the press

00:49:33.400 would have already been murdered along with all of their family. So I said to you, I don't think

00:49:38.920 this is real. Because if this were real, there's no way in hell it's getting out from the military

00:49:46.360 secret part of China. Well, it's not real. So it didn't happen. It was fake news. So the update is fake

00:49:55.800 news. I think that the truth is that some lesser, there was some lesser kind of old thing that got,

00:50:05.160 they got beaten, but it's been beaten by ordinary computers too. So no big deal. I think it was just

00:50:11.320 the reporter didn't understand what had happened. Kamala Harris has a, as a ad campaign, the post

00:50:20.040 millennial is mocking here, in which the campaign is suggesting that if you're a man, you're not going

00:50:27.240 to be able to get a date with a woman if you vote for Trump. And so it showed five women and one guy,

00:50:34.120 and he's trying to get a date with them. And they all, they all pop a balloon, which is the symbolism

00:50:39.720 for saying no to him. And all five of them pop the balloon and say no. Now what's interesting is,

00:50:46.440 it was a black man. And all five of the women he wanted to date were black women.

00:50:53.320 And the black women rejected him. So first of all, there wasn't really nearly enough diversity

00:51:02.520 in that dating pool. Just because he's a black man, I don't believe that limits him to just black

00:51:08.760 women or even women. And so I would add at least a gay man in there, two trans and a little diversity.

00:51:17.080 Please, please.

00:51:20.920 Anyway, that happened.

00:51:27.480 You know, I mentioned that Obama was in Vegas giving a speech. And here's what I don't remember

00:51:33.080 about Obama. Did he always completely lie his ass off about everything? Now all politicians exaggerate,

00:51:43.080 they all, you know, paint their picture, they spin. But wow, almost everything out of his mouth was one

00:51:49.800 of the common hoaxes. You know, he even went for the, Trump's going to use the military to get you.

00:51:56.120 I mean, he went for every hoax. He used the, calling the military suckers hoax. But so I was

00:52:04.120 trying to remember, was he always that big a liar? Because I just don't remember him that way.

00:52:12.200 Okay. So that, so those of you who paid more attention than I did are confirming he was always

00:52:17.880 a gigantic liar. Okay. I will accept your take on that. Meanwhile, while Obama was lying and everybody

00:52:28.680 else is being crazy, Trump was once again saying that with our support, he'll take us to the golden

00:52:39.400 age. So apparently he has settled on this golden age messaging. He said, with your support, we'll bring

00:52:46.360 back our nation's strength, dominance, prosperity, and pride. He said, this will be America's new golden

00:52:51.560 age. 100 years from now, the presidential election will be looked upon as America's greatest victory.

00:52:59.560 Now, how much hyperbole is in that? On first reading, you would say to yourself, I think,

00:53:06.840 if this were a normal year, you'd say, okay, you know, sounds great. But probably, you know,

00:53:12.840 next year will be like every other year. And the year after that will be like every other year,

00:53:17.000 unless there's a pandemic. You know, it's not like we're going to go to the golden age suddenly.

00:53:24.200 Except that we might. So here's a word that Elon Musk used yesterday, just one word

00:53:32.280 that gave me so much optimism and made everything make sense. He said that the government needs to be,

00:53:43.800 and here's the one word, re-engineered. Oh my God, did I want to hear that.

00:53:50.760 What I didn't want to hear is, I'm going to take down the expenses 25%, which maybe he could do.

00:54:00.440 Because one of the things I've heard Musk say a number of times about his businesses

00:54:05.960 is the biggest mistake an engineer will make is to optimize something that shouldn't have been there

00:54:11.080 in the first place. And he's made that point a lot of times. So when he looks at the government,

00:54:17.000 do you think he sees a government that's working fine, but maybe it could be a little,

00:54:20.760 use a little less money? I don't think so. I think he sees a government full of things that don't need

00:54:27.160 to exist. And that if we look at it as an optimization problem, we're dead from the start,

00:54:35.000 because you can't get there from here. But if you look at it from a starting from scratch,

00:54:40.920 how would you build a government if we'd never had one? And you could build the best one,

00:54:46.120 but you can just forget about the past. Now we've got to keep the constitution. And I think that

00:54:51.240 that's safe. There's nothing that Trump's, there's nothing that Musk is going to do

00:54:56.840 that's going to violate the constitution. So that's safe. But there's a whole bunch of stuff

00:55:01.560 you can do within the realm of the government that would be massively helpful. Now here's what else I

00:55:09.960 think. I spend way too much time watching Graham Norton shows about the past civilizations that used

00:55:17.080 to be and then got destroyed. And we keep finding these, these big cities that got buried and there

00:55:23.480 used to be a whole population here, but they all died out. And then you look as even as recently as

00:55:30.360 the Roman empire. And you say, the Roman empire, they had control of all kinds of parts of the world.

00:55:36.040 How in the world did they lose out? Oh, well, they did. And then you look at the Mongols, 1.00

00:55:41.400 you know, the Mongols, they had control of everything. How, how is it the Mongols aren't 0.99

00:55:46.040 still in charge? Well, it didn't last. And almost every civilization that you see from the past,

00:55:53.160 there's a point where they peaked and they did well. And then everything went to hell and they fell

00:55:58.040 apart. Now, how could you possibly break that cycle? Well, the first thing you need is an enduring

00:56:08.600 physical advantage. And we have it. America has that physical advantage that we have the oceans

00:56:15.000 between us and our adversaries. It makes us really hard to control. If anybody wanted to do it

00:56:20.680 militarily, it'd be a tough egg. So we still have that. But we're completely falling apart in terms of

00:56:28.440 culture and governance and efficiency. We're dying in regulations. We're just not promoting the best

00:56:37.960 people. We got open borders. We've got massive deficit, et cetera. But here's what we also have.

00:56:46.120 We have the American spirit, which as much as you want to say everything's going wrong and it is,

00:56:58.280 everything's going wrong. Let me tell you what the American spirit is that's different from all the

00:57:05.640 other cultures that ever lived before and died. The American culture says, if you're not working,

00:57:13.160 I will burn you to the ground tomorrow and start over. If you're not giving me what I want, I'm going

00:57:20.440 to put you right in the garbage can. If you've been operating for 200 years, but it's not working today,

00:57:28.120 bye-bye. I will get rid of this old product so I can sell the new product. I will stop being a computer

00:57:36.520 company. I'll become a phone company. I'll become a music company. I'll become a rocket company.

00:57:45.640 Americans destroy before we build. And the destroying is maybe even a bigger part of our character than the 1.00

00:57:56.520 building. We're hella good builders, you know, when we put our minds to it. But we're the best destroyers.

00:58:05.000 And if you can't destroy what you got, you'll never go anywhere. You're going to die. I worry that Europe

00:58:11.640 is pretty good at building, but pretty bad at destroying. Kind of trapped in their past a little

00:58:18.360 bit. Not us. Not us. We'll change anything that needs to be changed. We'd like to keep our constitution,

00:58:27.560 but we're even talking about changing that. There's nothing we won't change. And if you put in an Elon

00:58:33.720 Musk, you don't have a normal situation. You give me a Vivek, Ramaswamy, whole new deal. We're talking

00:58:44.200 about founder-level strength. You give me an RFK junior. What stops him? Nothing. Tulsi, incredibly

00:58:55.640 strong player. Whatever she does is going to be important. And then you give me Trump, the George

00:59:02.920 Washington of all George Washingtons. I know, I know. The Democrats don't see it that way. But the

00:59:09.080 thing is, Trump will destroy something to build, because that's what he does for a living.

00:59:15.080 He demolishes what was there, unburdened by what it has been, to build the new thing.

00:59:20.600 What does Musk do? Musk starts with first principles. It's his biggest thematic personality

00:59:30.840 extreme that he will not care what's been done before. He only cares what's the right way to do

00:59:37.240 it. So when you unleash a Trump, Vance, Vivek, RFK Jr., and Elon Musk on this ailing country,

00:59:50.600 which is in fact failing. I think you all feel it. We are a failing country. And if nothing changed,

00:59:57.880 we would fail. But good luck, China, doing what we can do. Good luck, Germany. Good luck, France.

01:00:11.400 Good luck, Canada. Good luck, Great Britain. You used to be great. You can't do what we can do.

01:00:22.520 We can burn it all down. And we can build something great on those ashes faster than anybody can.

01:00:29.480 So we are entering a period where the golden age, when you throw AI into the mix, you throw nuclear

01:00:40.040 power that's coming online like crazy, you throw robots into the mix. And if we're lucky, drones will

01:00:49.800 end the risk of nuclear war, because a drone war would be better. But we won't do the drone war either, 0.63

01:00:55.640 because it would still be mutually assured destruction. We might actually be moving our

01:01:00.920 mutually assured destruction from nuclear, which would be the worst kind, to still having the

01:01:08.840 reason to not fight, which is the drones would make it unlivable, but you could recover from drone

01:01:15.880 attacks better than nuclear. So it could be that we're going to have a much better food supply,

01:01:25.960 it could be that we'll be back on track in terms of paying off our debts. It could be

01:01:33.480 that we will close our borders or at least have a vetting system where we get the best workers

01:01:38.120 and the best outcome. It could be that we'll wrap up the Ukraine war pretty quickly and get along with

01:01:46.360 Russia well enough that we wonder why we ever didn't be friends. What did I just say go by?

01:01:53.880 Oh, so Trump is going off to McDonald's today in Pennsylvania. Trump's going to be working at

01:02:04.520 McDonald's. Oh man, you've got to tell me when that is. I will stop everything to watch him working

01:02:12.280 at McDonald's. I can't love that more, honestly. I just can't love it more. So his campaign is just

01:02:19.960 acting so smart. Not doing 60 minutes, correct. Not doing any more mainstream interviews if he doesn't

01:02:29.720 feel like it. If he doesn't feel like it, fine. But man, barbershop twice, McDonald's rallies,

01:02:40.120 podcasts. Oh yeah. He's setting the standard. You're watching Trump set the standard for what

01:02:47.960 a modern campaign should look like right now. Kamala Harris is not. She's basically just trying to 1.00

01:02:55.080 tread water and do what people are telling her and probably a lot of infighting. Trump is just making

01:03:01.640 it look easy. Yeah. So is the golden age coming? Well, I don't know. But I will tell you everything

01:03:14.920 is lining up to make it possible. In a way, it's kind of special. I haven't seen it before. So maybe.

01:03:22.600 Maybe. Pollster Scott Rasmussen says transgenderism and sports, specifically biological men who have

01:03:33.540 transitioned to women and playing in women's sports, apparently it might be a bigger factor 1.00

01:03:41.120 in the election than people realized. And I'm not surprised. You know, if you don't have a family

01:03:48.040 member who's in that situation, it's probably not at the top of your mind. But if you knew anybody

01:03:55.080 who is competing in female sports and they ran into that situation, you would get radicalized 1.00

01:04:00.680 almost immediately. Because as soon as you say, wait, we're hurting young women. 0.91

01:04:10.040 I hate to say this, but if the problem were young men were getting hurt, nobody would care.

01:04:15.400 Let's be honest. If somehow the trans community was causing men who were in sports to get injured

01:04:26.600 more often, we wouldn't even have this conversation because we don't give a shit about men. Now,

01:04:31.320 I'm saying that with hyperbole because we don't care enough about men. But when you say a young woman 0.69

01:04:37.960 who is probably a hundred times more important than a man, if you are a species for which mating is the

01:04:47.160 main thing you do, women are more important. And a young woman is more important than a woman who's 1.00

01:04:52.840 not in, you know, baby-making age. So biologically, there's nothing more important to us, male or female,

01:04:59.800 female than a young baby-making age. So if you say the 18-year-old boys are getting more head

01:05:08.280 injuries from football, well, something will probably happen. You know, people will advocate

01:05:13.160 about it, but it's not really going to move the vote. Like, I don't think a national vote would move

01:05:19.080 because somebody said, I'm going to get rid of football because it's hurting boys. Nobody cares,

01:05:26.840 unless it's your boy. But if you say that women are getting beaten up in just some schools sometimes, 1.00

01:05:34.840 suddenly, like, you're just so activated. You're like, seriously? A young woman is being beaten up

01:05:42.440 by a man, or what some would say is a man, and the person who would self-identify as a woman.

01:05:50.280 It feels different. So I would not be surprised if Scott Rasmussen is correct, and that, at least

01:05:58.920 at the suburban level especially, the suburban mom level, it could be that

01:06:04.600 could be that that changes some votes. We'll see. Apparently, Jewish support for Democrats is the

01:06:12.040 lowest since the Reagan era. If the vote were held today, Harris would win the support of just 67%

01:06:20.920 of Jewish voters, still two-thirds. But it's less support than at any time since Reagan, I guess. So

01:06:28.680 that's important. All right. Insurrection Barbie, which is becoming one of my favorite accounts to

01:06:37.960 follow on X. I don't know who it is, but Insurrection Barbie is the name of the account.

01:06:44.040 And I want to read to you about the color revolution that could be coming in a few weeks if Trump wins.

01:06:52.040 All right. So this is Insurrection Barbie's account, and I'll just read it to you,

01:06:57.720 because you need to hear the whole thing. Because if this is describing exactly what you see,

01:07:04.760 you're going to know it'll be like you're seeing around a corner. Okay.

01:07:09.800 So Insurrection Barbie says, if Trump wins, color revolution protests on the streets. 0.54

01:07:17.080 If you want to understand how badly Kamala Harris is doing in this race,

01:07:20.360 all you need to do is look at this clip from MSNBC. And then there's a clip involved. But MSNBC said the

01:07:27.240 quiet part out loud. They are deathly afraid that Trump will invoke the Insurrection Act

01:07:35.240 and the riots that are going to hit our streets after he wins will be stopped. In other words,

01:07:41.720 the MSNBC people are basically telling you there will be riots if Trump wins. What they don't want

01:07:48.760 is that Trump will use the military to stop them. Because continuing the riots in the street is how

01:07:54.280 you take over a country. So MSNBC, being the propaganda network, is trying to prime you that

01:08:02.520 if anybody tried to stop protests, they would be the bad guys. Not the people doing the protests and

01:08:08.760 trying to take over the country. It would be the people stopping them from taking over the country. 0.94

01:08:14.600 They would be the bad guys. Okay. Continuing in the Insurrection Barbie's post. 0.55

01:08:24.840 How do I know this? And Barbie says, they always tell you what they are going to do. So that's the

01:08:33.000 Tucker Carlson thing, which I used to doubt. And now I do not doubt whatsoever. They literally tell

01:08:39.000 you what they are going to do by blaming you for it. And she says, or he says, I have an article from

01:08:47.160 the Guardian about the war games that the blob, that's the deep state, did in preparation for the

01:08:53.240 second Donald Trump victory. One of the scenarios in those war games, and by the way, this war gaming is

01:09:00.200 a real thing. The Democrats do this. The war games was what would happen if Fox News lies and said there

01:09:09.800 are dangerous protests and riots outside, when in reality, it's just the American people rising up

01:09:15.560 against the fascists. See where we're going? What would happen, they war gamed it, if the public

01:09:23.640 protested the result, and Fox News said these are just protesters, instead of agreeing with the fake

01:09:30.760 news, which will say a fascist took over the country, and the country needs to take him down right away.

01:09:37.320 So what would they do if Fox News told the truth, that it was just a president getting elected,

01:09:42.360 when the narrative should be that he's a fascist and the country is protesting against him?

01:09:47.800 The eventual outcome of the war game was that there was nothing they could do to stop the 0.62

01:09:54.440 elected president from invoking the Insurrection Act. And then the clip, Mika from Morning Joe,

01:10:03.320 was admitting they're terrified of Trump, and that Trump will do just that.

01:10:10.840 So they're basically priming you for the coming street protests. The street protests will not be

01:10:17.240 organic, they will be CIA, MSNBC, which is the same thing basically,

01:10:24.840 lead, and other fake news. And when Fox News tells you that these are fake protests,

01:10:33.560 they need to be able to respond to be able to say, no, no, no, it's because the fascists got elected,

01:10:38.680 don't you know, that this is natural things happening and the voters really care.

01:10:42.920 So that's coming.

01:10:48.040 Anyway, there's some fake news about a drone strike on Netanyahu's home in Israel.

01:10:54.440 Some of the news say that the drone struck his home, but it wasn't there. Others say that it was

01:11:01.640 sent in the direction of his home. And I think somebody else was guessing that it might have

01:11:06.600 landed near the home, but didn't hit the home. So there's no evidence that I can see that his home

01:11:13.000 was hit. There is some suggestion that maybe something was aiming at it, but we don't know.

01:11:20.680 That's not going to stop anything.

01:11:22.040 And there were some leaked war plans, allegedly. So allegedly, the Pentagon leaked some Israel war

01:11:34.280 plans. So the war plans against Iran. So I wasn't clear if it was just the defensive war plans or the

01:11:42.040 offensive war plans or both. But do you believe that true war plans have been leaked?

01:11:51.640 If I were Iran, I would be saying, I'll bet those are fake war plans that got leaked.

01:11:58.520 Because if you were going to try to get somebody to prepare for the wrong thing,

01:12:04.360 you would leak some war plans and make them think, oh, no, they're aiming for

01:12:07.960 nuclear facilities. And then they put all their defenses around the nuclear facilities.

01:12:14.280 And then Israel would take something else. Now, the other possibility is it's a real leak,

01:12:20.520 which would be a real problem. I don't know how war plans ever stay secret, frankly.

01:12:26.120 So I'm surprised they're not always leaked.

01:12:30.280 Well, ladies and gentlemen, that is the conclusion of my remarks for today.

01:12:34.840 It's going to get real interesting as we get to these final days. I remind you that I believe it is

01:12:43.480 two weeks when it's two weeks from Election Day. Is that Tuesday?

01:12:48.920 Is is this coming Tuesday, two weeks from Election Day?

01:12:53.640 Because I think that's the day I said I was going to do a live stream and vote by mail.

01:13:00.360 Well, I will tell you, you won't see my ballot and you won't see me fill it out. You'll just see me.

01:13:08.440 So there's there's some legal question about whether I can show a ballot and it should be legal in

01:13:14.520 California. But I wasn't planning on showing it to you anyway. So so I'll give you more information.

01:13:22.120 But I think at nine p.m. Eastern Time, which would be six p.m. my time, two weeks before Election Day,

01:13:28.760 the Tuesday. I think that's this Tuesday. I will be live streaming to all platforms.

01:13:35.960 And I'll simply invite you if you have ADHD and you're meaning to vote and you just need a little bit

01:13:42.440 of somebody doing the same thing at the same time so you can focus.

01:13:45.480 I'll just come on and I'll encourage you to go find your vote wherever it's sitting around and

01:13:51.880 whatever desktop or in pile of mail and just pull it out and just fill it out while I'm filling out

01:13:59.080 mine. And I won't tell you how to vote. I won't tell you how to fill yours out. You're in a different

01:14:05.960 state anyway, probably. I will tell you that if you're in a state where Trump can't win,

01:14:12.440 as I am in California, you really still need to vote. This is the first time that I can say with

01:14:21.560 a very strong voice that voting in a blue state where it's definitely going to go the other way

01:14:28.600 is very important because you want to win the national vote. If Trump wins the

01:14:34.520 Electoral College and doesn't win the national vote, we're going to have a lot of trouble.

01:14:41.880 We're probably going to have a lot of trouble no matter what happens. But you can minimize the

01:14:47.160 trouble by making sure that Trump wins the national vote. And the only way that's going to happen, I

01:14:51.960 think, is if he gets an unusually large vote in, say, New York and California. Now, I've seen people

01:15:00.680 question, why would Trump go to New York State when everybody knows he can't win in New York State?

01:15:07.560 Do you understand now? Does it all make sense now? It doesn't matter if he wins New York State.

01:15:16.120 New York State has a lot of people. He should be going where there's a lot of people in addition

01:15:23.080 to going to the swing states, which he's doing plenty of. He needs to go where there's a lot of

01:15:27.800 people. Because if there's a lot of people, some number of them can switch his way if he does everything

01:15:33.320 right. And that's good for the overall national vote. Now, the national vote doesn't get you elected.

01:15:39.800 It's only the Electoral College. But if he doesn't win both this time, it's going to look like trouble.

01:15:46.840 So he might be running the smartest campaign we've ever seen. I think you could argue that when this is

01:15:54.920 done, history might judge it as the best political campaign we've ever observed. It just looks so

01:16:03.240 good, honestly, just so good from top to bottom. And compliments to everybody involved. I'm sure

01:16:09.720 there's plenty of infighting. I'm sure there's plenty of disagreement in the background. But it looks like

01:16:17.240 over and over, the best ideas are winning. I always tell you that the people with the best

01:16:23.000 ideas are in charge of everything. Because the boss wants the best idea. So if you have the best idea,

01:16:30.200 you're in charge. Your idea becomes the policy. And it looks to me like Trump has surrounded himself

01:16:37.400 with extraordinary talent this time. He had a lot of talent the last time, but it looks different this

01:16:44.440 time. I mean, it looks really qualitatively different. So I think the level of advice

01:16:50.120 that not only that he's getting, but that they're filtering through.

01:16:53.800 It seems to me that smart people from all around in his circle, you know, the expanded circle of his

01:17:04.200 supporters, not the people in the room, but just supporters. It seems to me that there's a direct

01:17:10.680 connection now between the incoming suggestions and getting all the way to his desk.

01:17:16.200 Do you feel that? Yeah, because I think the barbershop idea and the McDonald's ideas,

01:17:25.320 I think those are both things that were suggested by somebody. I'm one of the people who suggested

01:17:32.200 the barbershop idea, but I imagine there were probably others that did the same. But those ideas

01:17:39.000 got all the way to Trump. I would be amazed if he came up with them himself and probably didn't come

01:17:46.440 from the inner circle. It probably came from the outer circles and made it through the inner circle

01:17:50.920 all the way to the big guy. That is amazing. And by the way, this is typical. We've seen this a whole

01:17:57.640 bunch of times where an individual idea is just strong enough that it penetrates all the circles and

01:18:04.360 gets right to the big guy. It gets to the boss. I've never seen anything like it, actually. We have

01:18:09.960 several examples where it's obvious it got all the way to the boss. So this is by far the best campaign

01:18:18.600 of my life. I've never seen anything like it. And I thought Obama was amazing, but I think this is a new level.

01:18:24.680 All right. Yeah. And Barron Trump. All right. Barron Trump appears to be one of those voices

01:18:36.200 that normally you don't expect the 18, 19-year-old man, whatever he is, you don't expect him to break

01:18:42.280 through. But if his ideas make sense, such as the podcaster Aiden that he talked to, the best idea

01:18:51.240 wins. So there he is. Brian Krasenstein is posting, theory, men voting for Harris are the silent voters

01:19:04.360 in this year's election. If there's one thing I can say for sure, the one thing I can say with complete

01:19:16.840 certainty. We will not be surprised by the number of men who vote for Kamala Harris.

01:19:25.400 You might be surprised by the number of men who vote for Trump, but

01:19:31.880 no. No, that's not going to happen. That's funny.

01:19:38.520 All right.

01:19:38.920 That's all I got for you now. I'm going to go talk to the locals' subscribers because they're

01:19:49.240 amazing and special and unusually sexy. And I'll talk to the rest of you tomorrow, same time, same

01:19:55.160 place. Thanks, YouTube and Rumble and X. And remember, the Dilbert calendar is available for

01:20:00.680 a presale. You can get it at Dilbert.com. Follow the link on Dilbert.com. It's the only place you can get

01:20:06.440 it. You can't get it on Amazon. All right. That's all for now. Coming at you, locals, in 30 seconds.
