Real Coffee with Scott Adams - Episode 2641 CWSA 10⧸27⧸24

00:00:00.840 Not me. No, I'm here for you.

00:00:12.340 Good morning, everybody, and welcome to the highlight of human civilization.

00:00:20.420 It's Gulled Coffee with Scott Adams, and it's going to be the best time you've ever had in your whole life.

00:00:25.660 But if you'd like to take this up to levels that nobody can even understand with their tiny, shiny human brains,

00:00:33.960 all you need for that is a cup or mug or a glass, a tank of gels or stein, a canteen jug or flask, a vessel of any kind.

00:00:40.660 Fill it with your favorite liquid. I like coffee.

00:00:43.700 And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure of the dopamine at the end of the day that makes everything better.

00:00:47.780 It's called the simultaneous sip. Go.

00:00:55.660 Ah, the sippage is excellent today.

00:01:00.840 But what else is happening?

00:01:04.260 Well, one of the things you've probably been asking yourself is, sure, they can make robots, and they can make robot dogs.

00:01:12.560 But can they make a robot dog that walks underwater?

00:01:17.500 Yes. Yes, they can.

00:01:20.100 It's called the honey badger.

00:01:22.160 And according to the bite, these engineers have a quadruped robot dog that can, it's about a foot long,

00:01:31.340 and it can walk onto your pool, and it can hide underwater.

00:01:36.000 Now, I can't think of anything scarier than seeing robot dogs come out of water.

00:01:42.120 If I'm ever by a stream, and a robot dog ever comes out of that stream and starts coming at me, I'm going to run very, very fast.

00:01:52.880 But then the other robot dogs will catch up with me and overtake me and put me in a cocoon and harvest me for energy, I assume.

00:02:03.200 I mean, I don't want to read too much into it, but I do think robot dog walks underwater, harvest me for energy, giant cocoon.

00:02:10.800 I think it follows.

00:02:15.000 And now, according to Science Blog, scientists can create cancer patients as digital twins to predict how well something will go.

00:02:24.820 That's right.

00:02:25.860 They can create your digital twin, and then they can put that digital twin in some digital medical study,

00:02:34.600 and then they can see how you do as a digital twin before they do it to your real body.

00:02:40.080 Okay.

00:02:40.800 Which raises some interesting questions, doesn't it?

00:02:47.880 Such as, how many digital twins will you have for every base reality you?

00:02:56.640 Might you have a digital twin for each kind of problem you might have?

00:03:00.820 For example, might I create a digital twin that figures out how to solve all the water-related damage in my house every single day?

00:03:12.120 Hmm.

00:03:13.560 It could be that you're already a digital twin, and that you've been created just so the real person who is you can see how your solutions work.

00:03:23.120 And so, having a digital cancer twin makes perfect sense.

00:03:28.460 And by the way, there are a number of efforts in the world where people are trying to figure out whether medicines are working the way they're supposed to work for your cancer patients and other people as well.

00:03:41.200 So, digital twin.

00:03:42.440 So, digital twin.

00:03:43.820 Hmm.

00:03:44.500 Now, when they talk about it, they don't mean it's like a simulation digital twin, but it will be.

00:03:49.540 Your digital twin should not only have the same, let's say, DNA that you have and the same comorbidities, but it should live the same lifestyle.

00:04:01.340 So, if you eat a carrot, your digital twin should eat a carrot, because it's all part of the, part of the, did you do enough?

00:04:12.320 Did you exercise?

00:04:14.000 Apparently, people taking Ozempic, the weight loss drug, they have far lower Alzheimer risk so far.

00:04:22.760 I'm surprised they know that, because that drug hasn't been around that long.

00:04:26.640 So, they say a 40 to 70% reduction for people who have type 2 diabetes, which apparently suggests that you have a higher risk of Alzheimer's too.

00:04:41.640 Well, I don't know about you, but I'm starting to think that obesity is bad for your health.

00:04:46.980 Is anybody picking that up?

00:04:49.100 How's your pattern recognition?

00:04:50.340 So, whenever people are overweight, it seems that there's a wide variety of problems they have, and some of them include the brain.

00:05:02.860 Oh, how many times do I tell you that your body is your brain?

00:05:07.200 That's right.

00:05:08.600 If your body is doing type 2 diabetes things instead of what it should be doing, your brain is going to be degraded.

00:05:16.960 So, one of the smartest things I did in my, let's say, late teen years, is I decided that my body and my brain were the same thing,

00:05:29.240 and that if I exercised and ate right all of my life, I could get to my old age, and my brain would still be working.

00:05:38.160 Here I am.

00:05:39.580 I'm old, and my brain is still working.

00:05:42.020 So, so far, so good.

00:05:43.120 I don't know what will happen tomorrow, but today, brain working. 0.96

00:05:49.720 Did you remember that Vivek Ramaswamy is the second biggest shareholder now in the septic tank piece of crap called BuzzFeed? 0.82

00:06:01.720 That's an online publication.

00:06:03.560 Now, I did see a report that he visited them, and he's maybe trying to convince them to have some conservative writers.

00:06:12.820 I don't know if that's going to happen, but he's the second biggest shareholder, so he's an activist.

00:06:18.760 I would think there's a good chance he'll get what he wants.

00:06:21.800 That was reported by George on the X platform.

00:06:25.700 And I would love to know what Vivek has as a plan, but I would like to point out that it does seem that traditional media is dead, as a number of smart people are saying.

00:06:39.240 The fact that the Joe Rogan broadcast with Trump, I think he did three hours, and he's got, last I checked, 17 million views.

00:06:53.420 Kamala Harris went on the second biggest podcast in the world and got under 700,000.

00:07:00.280 So 17 million in just a few days and, you know, more common versus 700,000, which isn't bad either.

00:07:11.600 But a lot of people are saying that the traditional media, the CNNs and the MSNBCs and the ABC News and CBS, that they're basically done.

00:07:20.140 And there's even thinking that they should give up their airwaves, you know, the radio, what do you call it, spectrum?

00:07:33.080 So there's some thinking that the traditional media should give up its spectrum.

00:07:37.820 And you know what the reason is?

00:07:39.860 The reason is that they don't serve the public anymore.

00:07:44.060 It's actually a good reason.

00:07:45.460 The reason that the TV networks have, I think, free, you know, they all get allocated their own little spectrum that is rare.

00:07:55.380 And I think, I believe the reasoning is that the public gets a benefit from having the networks have this access, especially the news.

00:08:04.380 But now that the news from the networks is really just nothing but propaganda, and we recognize it as such.

00:08:11.040 And the only place you can get anything useful is from independent journalists.

00:08:17.480 Why exactly do these big entities have free, you know, free asset from the country, the bandwidth and the, what would you call it, the spectrum, if they're actually bad for the country?

00:08:32.620 So, you know, I'm not sure they were ever good for the country, but at the moment, it's super, super obvious that the mainstream news is fake news, it's propaganda, it's bad for the country.

00:08:47.200 So why do they get free assets to be bad for the country?

00:08:52.700 Because I think that's not even controversial at this point.

00:08:55.540 Even people are mad at their own preferred sources, you know, people are mad at the Washington Post, they're mad at the L.A. Times, they're mad at the CNN, and they're mad at their own side.

00:09:10.520 So it's not like we're arguing that the mainstream media is good for one side and bad for the other, because both sides say, hey, what happened to you guys?

00:09:18.380 You're worthless now.

00:09:19.100 So we'll see what Vivek has in plan for BuzzFeed.

00:09:25.440 If I were a younger man, I would say, Vivek, BuzzFeed needs a columnist like me, but I'm not.

00:09:37.180 Anyway, do you think mainstream media is dead?

00:09:41.800 I think it's premature.

00:09:43.700 I think people are actually, you know, a little bit more wishful thinking.

00:09:47.620 I think it's dead.

00:09:49.100 But the reason that the traditional media exists is not to make money.

00:09:56.020 So you can't predict their fate based on economics, because they're clearly, their propaganda is obviously the purpose of them.

00:10:05.320 And I don't see any reason that they'll go away.

00:10:10.700 If money isn't the reason they exist in the first place, and propaganda is the reason they exist, they're not going to go away because they're losing money and their propaganda.

00:10:21.240 So I'm going to go counter to all the smart people who are saying, my goodness, Joe Rogan has made all the traditional mainstream media garbage.

00:10:35.340 Eventually, yes.

00:10:36.500 But next year, no, next year will look exactly like this year.

00:10:42.460 Yeah.

00:10:42.700 I mean, you know, maybe 1% difference.

00:10:44.940 Why is the Joe Rogan thing better?

00:10:51.560 Well, lots of reasons.

00:10:52.780 Number one reason is that there's a long time period.

00:10:58.200 So people are really, you know, they've got all the time in the world to answer questions.

00:11:02.220 A podcaster such as Joe Rogan has all the time in the world to follow up on a question.

00:11:08.860 There's nobody sitting there talking over them.

00:11:12.000 Now, let me compare that to three episodes of CNN.

00:11:19.020 So there were three separate clips just this morning about CNN, and they all had the same quality to them.

00:11:26.680 A conservative tried to say something that was both true and obvious and well-known and on point, and the liberals and or liberal who was there with them talked over them so they couldn't talk.

00:11:44.120 Now, that didn't happen on Joe Rogan, did it?

00:11:48.040 Was anybody talking over anybody?

00:11:50.640 Didn't need to.

00:11:51.600 Three hours.

00:11:52.180 But I was watching Scott Jennings on CNN, and somebody mentioned the drinking bleach hoax like it was real.

00:12:05.780 And Scott Jennings says, well, you know, that's a hoax.

00:12:08.200 And suddenly, five different panelists started talking over him so that the audience couldn't hear him say that it was a hoax.

00:12:15.840 And I thought, that is fascinating.

00:12:18.040 That's something you don't see on a podcast.

00:12:19.920 You'll never see a podcast where somebody is completely talked over to the point where the topic changes.

00:12:29.260 And then I watched, there was another segment where, again, the conservative got talked over until the time changed.

00:12:36.860 And then I watched Jake Tapper interviewing J.D. Vance.

00:12:42.160 And Tapper was using the really play.

00:12:46.840 I've taught you the really play.

00:12:48.420 It's where you don't have to give an argument sometimes.

00:12:52.000 Sometimes you just say the thing that somebody believes, and you look at them and you go, really?

00:12:58.100 Really?

00:12:59.900 Really?

00:13:00.520 That's what you believe.

00:13:01.860 And it can be really good as a persuasion thing if the person would have trouble explaining why that's really what they believe.

00:13:11.540 However, it didn't work with J.D. Vance because the question was, why are all these ex-staffers of Trump now turning against him?

00:13:22.980 And Jake was trying to make the point, you know, really?

00:13:27.940 Are you saying that all of these people, all of these people that turned against Trump, really?

00:13:33.760 They're really, they're all bad?

00:13:35.560 You're saying there's something wrong with all of these people?

00:13:38.260 Really?

00:13:39.760 And J.D. Vance looks at him and goes, yes.

00:13:42.500 And then he explains, they're all neocons.

00:13:47.940 And yes, there's something wrong with every one of them.

00:13:52.440 Now, you could debate the accuracy of that statement.

00:13:57.360 You know, are they all neocons?

00:13:58.880 Is there something wrong with them?

00:14:00.260 But they all had some reason to be mad at Trump.

00:14:03.700 They were either fired by him or there's something they didn't like about him or they're neocons or something else.

00:14:09.520 But the key point was that as J.D. tried to explain his point of view, Tapper just kept talking over him.

00:14:19.680 So I watched three different segments that were all really interesting and I would have wanted to see the actual exchange, but I couldn't.

00:14:28.580 Because CNN wouldn't allow the person they were talking to to talk.

00:14:32.780 Now, did you see that even one time on any conservative podcast that you've watched lately?

00:14:43.180 The last time I saw it was, I was watching also Megyn Kelly appear on Bill Maher's show.

00:14:51.700 And I swear he was talking over her.

00:14:53.860 Now, because it's Megyn Kelly, and it's not your average person, she didn't let him get away with talking over him, which is hard to do, by the way.

00:15:04.020 Unless you're really, really good at media, getting talked over is hard to get out of.

00:15:10.300 But, you know, Megyn Kelly is a force of nature, so she does.

00:15:14.160 But watching the, it seems to me that the Democrat argument has turned into, I need to make sure you don't talk.

00:15:25.780 Have you noticed that?

00:15:27.700 So it started with the Twitter files and trying to get the social media to censor you.

00:15:33.000 You know, the whole NGOs and Soros funding them to get the Europeans to shut you down.

00:15:39.280 Because they don't want conservatives to even have a message.

00:15:44.060 But then when they invite them on, they talk over them.

00:15:47.180 I mean, just grossly talk over them so they can't say a thing.

00:15:51.480 Now, you could argue that the same thing happens if a, you know, if a liberal goes on a conservative show, there might be the same thing.

00:16:00.380 But my larger point is that the traditional media is a talk over media.

00:16:05.620 Here's my summary.

00:16:06.560 Traditional media is about talking over somebody until you run out of time.

00:16:13.400 Nobody cares about that.

00:16:15.840 I don't want to see anybody talk over somebody until you're out of time.

00:16:19.800 Why?

00:16:21.560 What good is that?

00:16:23.860 So, yeah, traditional media is completely broken at this point.

00:16:28.600 Nicole Shanahan's video geniuses have another good one called The Big Cheat. 1.00

00:16:37.400 So it's a campaign ad.

00:16:39.600 Again, it's really, really well done.

00:16:42.800 Whoever is making her videos is highly talented.

00:16:46.880 But it's called The Big Cheat.

00:16:49.420 And you think it's going to be about, you know, 2020 cheat.

00:16:53.680 But it's not.

00:16:55.100 It's about how Bernie Sanders was cheated out of his place at the party.

00:17:02.600 It was about how the 51 intel chiefs were cheating at the end of the election.

00:17:09.300 And it's about how Biden was dethroned.

00:17:11.840 And it was about how Kamala was installed.

00:17:14.320 And once you see how the Democrats treat other Democrats, it's really hard to imagine that

00:17:23.060 the election itself is not rigged because everything that the Democrats are doing to

00:17:28.920 themselves is rigging.

00:17:31.200 I mean, they're rigging each other.

00:17:33.120 So to imagine that they would rig each other right in front of the whole world but not rig

00:17:37.320 the election to actually win it is kind of a stretch.

00:17:41.400 It'd be kind of hard to believe, really, really, that they're not going to do anything

00:17:48.500 sketchy.

00:18:52.020 So there's more news on the Washington Post not endorsing anybody, which is a rare thing

00:19:00.180 they normally endorse the Democrat, and there's some reporting that maybe Jeff Bezos reached

00:19:10.040 some kind of a deal with Trump.

00:19:12.940 I'm not sure I'm ready to believe that.

00:19:15.740 I would believe that if I heard it from Bezos or from Trump, but I would believe it from literally

00:19:23.120 nobody else.

00:19:24.160 I don't want to hear about somebody who was in the room, somebody overheard a conversation,

00:19:29.900 some anonymous source.

00:19:32.280 So I don't trust anything about that story, but it seems to me that you don't need a conversation

00:19:38.260 between Trump and Bezos for this to happen.

00:19:44.640 Here's why.

00:19:45.720 Number one, has Bezos been active in politics so far?

00:19:51.640 Not really, right?

00:19:54.160 I can't think of Bezos doing anything overly political.

00:20:00.520 His wife, however, which I'm sure he's just really happy with, did take many billions of

00:20:07.600 his dollars and put them heavily into left-leaning things that he may not completely agree with.

00:20:16.200 So you have to wonder, and somebody speculated this on X, you wonder if this is marriage-related.

00:20:26.000 As in the one way you could really, really bug your ex-wife, who just spent billions of your dollars on

00:20:33.360 things you didn't want to be spent on?

00:20:34.960 Could be.

00:20:38.020 It was just a big F you to his ex-wife.

00:20:42.040 Now, he'd have plenty of cover for why he'd have other reasons to do it, which is you should just

00:20:48.380 stay out of politics.

00:20:49.780 He doesn't want to get Bud Lighted, doesn't want to get Target stored, doesn't want to get Disney'd.

00:20:55.500 But yes, he has an absolute responsibility that if you're a conservative author, you still

00:21:03.020 want to use Amazon.

00:21:04.060 If you're a liberal author, you still want to use Amazon.

00:21:06.580 If there were one person that I would really, really, really want to not be involved in

00:21:12.900 politics, it's Jeff Bezos.

00:21:15.120 Because he's like the person who can control what algorithm shows you what books.

00:21:23.200 I mean, that's way too much power to come down hard on one side of politics.

00:21:28.300 So Bezos being a genius, simply doing what smart people do is stay out of it.

00:21:34.300 Now, if you look at Elon Musk and you say, but how can they both be smart geniuses when

00:21:40.780 they're doing opposite things?

00:21:42.020 I think if you look at what Elon's doing, he's far more, let's say, far more willing

00:21:51.460 to take a risk.

00:21:54.060 And I think he has, he thinks there's more at stake, probably.

00:21:58.000 So I don't mind either opinion.

00:22:00.340 They come, you know, it looks like they're coming to their decisions in different ways,

00:22:05.180 but they're both smart.

00:22:07.320 And I would respect both of those.

00:22:10.240 I think I respect that equally.

00:22:13.780 I respect Bezos staying out of politics as much as I appreciate Musk getting into politics. 0.87

00:22:21.300 Because they don't seem to be doing it in a dumb way.

00:22:24.500 They seem to be doing it for what seems to be perfectly good reasons.

00:22:31.560 Anyway, can you believe that CNN doesn't know the drink bleach hoax is a hoax?

00:22:35.940 And they, they sold both the host and the guest argued with Scott Jennings that the, that

00:22:42.700 the Trump did in fact say, drink bleach.

00:22:46.280 How could you have a job in news and think that happened in the real world?

00:22:54.420 You know, we, we finally beat the fine people hoax.

00:22:58.840 That's, that's now common knowledge that that was a hoax.

00:23:01.400 But the drinking bleach one, oh my God, how anyone believes that Trump suggested drinking

00:23:10.060 bleach or even, or even injecting any kind of liquid disinfectant.

00:23:15.940 If there's anybody new to the feed, the real story is he was talking about light as an antiseptic.

00:23:21.940 He started by talking light, then he talked about it, and then he bookended it by talking

00:23:26.600 about light.

00:23:27.420 But the other experts didn't know he was talking about light or missed that point.

00:23:31.560 And they talked about other things.

00:23:33.540 He never talked about anything but light.

00:23:36.760 And so light was actually being trialed as a, as a disinfectant in your trachea and a disinfectant

00:23:45.440 potentially in your lungs, if they could stick a light source into your lungs and irradiated

00:23:51.180 it with UV light, that was the idea.

00:23:53.300 And that was actively being tested when Trump talked about it.

00:23:57.740 And then the news turned it into drinking bleach.

00:24:01.160 And then years later, CNN still reports it like it's news. 0.99

00:24:06.280 I mean, you can't be more pathetic than that. 1.00

00:24:09.640 That's pathetic. 1.00

00:24:11.420 Yeah, it's just pathetic. 0.99

00:24:12.460 Anyway, Jack Posobiec has a scoop that the White House insiders are saying that Biden 1.00

00:24:23.280 is telling advisors the election is dead and buried, and Kamala is an innate sucker, and 0.98

00:24:29.700 well, he's not happy. 0.96

00:24:32.200 Now, remember I always tell you that you can't believe anonymous insiders in the White House.

00:24:39.660 So you can't believe it when they say something about Trump, you can't believe it when they say

00:24:47.160 something about Harris, and you can't believe it when they say something about Biden.

00:24:51.080 It's just a general rule.

00:24:52.800 One anonymous insider is like nothing happened.

00:24:57.040 But it isn't hard to imagine that Joe Biden is having a hard time with this.

00:25:04.160 You can't really think of any scenario in which he's okay with it.

00:25:11.820 You also can't think of any scenario in which Biden wouldn't be talking about it.

00:25:17.720 You know, he's not going to be quiet about it.

00:25:19.820 And he probably wants her to lose.

00:25:22.700 Because honestly, if I were running for president, and I got replaced, I would want my replacement

00:25:32.000 to lose.

00:25:33.000 So that I could always say, you know, yeah, I get I was a little behind in the polls, but

00:25:37.540 I had a chance of coming back. 1.00

00:25:39.000 You replaced me with an idiot. 1.00

00:25:41.180 I mean, she's sort of a moron. 1.00

00:25:42.560 So then I saw a image that I think is real, but I saw some people questioning it, that 0.99

00:25:52.340 the teleprompter for the Kamala Harris rally, and I think the teleprompter was for Beyonce,

00:25:59.780 showed how to pronounce Kamala phonetically, as in the word, comma, dash, la.

00:26:07.180 Now, I think that's important because so many of her supporters can't say her name right.

00:26:11.560 And they've already come down on the point that if you can't say her name right, you're

00:26:15.360 probably a racist or a sexist.

00:26:18.520 But it turns out that one of her big supporters, Bruce Springsteen, also known as the boss, calls

00:26:25.860 her Kamala.

00:26:27.660 So do at least half of the black supporters that anybody talks to on the street, as do maybe

00:26:37.380 25% of every one of the supporters of hers that shows up on MSNBC or CNBC.

00:26:47.040 So the Harris people start out with this.

00:26:50.640 If you don't say her name right, you're obviously a bad person and you're doing it intentionally.

00:26:56.680 So Trump, instead of conforming, because he's not a conformer, he doubles down and goes with

00:27:05.260 full Kamala.

00:27:06.960 And then a lot of his surrogates and stuff, they go full Kamala.

00:27:11.840 And so they've got this thing they can do.

00:27:15.260 Oh, they would never do that with somebody else.

00:27:18.140 They're only doing it because they're racist.

00:27:21.220 That's why they use her name wrong.

00:27:22.640 And then the number of times that her own supporters pronounce her name wrong, it's getting hard

00:27:29.180 to ignore.

00:27:31.560 I mean, Bruce Springsteen, on stage, endorsing her, doesn't know her name.

00:27:39.380 She's being endorsed by people who don't know her name, like actually don't know it, because

00:27:45.100 when they try to say it, that's not actually her name.

00:27:47.940 The minimum requirement for endorsing somebody for president of the United States should be

00:27:54.720 you know their name.

00:27:57.740 Just to make us feel like you've done a little bit of work.

00:28:00.980 So let's look at how the two campaigns are doing.

00:28:03.800 Let's see.

00:28:06.120 Today, ex-president Trump will be in Madison Square Garden, going into the enemy, sort of

00:28:14.040 an unfriendly territory in the sense that Democrats usually win New York, but Trump has

00:28:20.980 been, in the past, highly popular in New York, more popular now than he's ever been since

00:28:26.120 he's been running for president.

00:28:27.880 He'll probably sell out as well as having a lot of street action around it.

00:28:32.240 It's going to be this enormous, enormous event, and the visuals are going to be insane

00:28:37.400 because it'll be such a big event and so much action, so much energy.

00:28:40.820 And let's see what Kamala Harris is doing. 1.00

00:28:44.160 We have some video of her at a bar with Gretchen Whitmer drinking beer and cackling.

00:28:51.160 Okay, we must admit that Kamala Harris' campaign hates her guts because if your candidate looked 1.00

00:29:00.880 like a drunk and she was a cackler, you would not have her seen in a bar. 1.00

00:29:07.280 Whatever you did, you would keep her as far away from a drink and as a bar as you possibly

00:29:14.360 could, and they put her in a bar and they put a drink in her hand. 1.00

00:29:21.260 Oh, my God.

00:29:23.540 Now, I'm not exactly some, you know, political expert consultant, but am I wrong that that

00:29:33.140 was the mistake of the week?

00:29:37.080 Can we conclude that Trump wins today's competition?

00:29:43.020 Now, I think the bar was last night and the, you know, Madison Square Garden will be today,

00:29:48.220 but that's a bad 24 hours.

00:29:51.480 The only thing I remember is she was drinking and cackling and that Beyonce came, Beyonce had

00:30:02.980 to be paid a huge amount to endorse her and didn't sing and made everybody mad because they

00:30:08.840 thought Beyonce was going to sing. 0.99

00:30:10.300 And then Michelle Obama shows up and what was wrong with Michelle Obama? 1.00

00:30:19.740 Did she have an allergy?

00:30:22.120 Did she just get done doing lines of coke? 1.00

00:30:27.300 What was wrong with her?

00:30:29.840 There's something wrong with her, but I don't know what it was.

00:30:32.000 I mean, it could just be a health related.

00:30:33.760 But she gets up and she tells women to, she says, women have every right to demand the 1.00

00:30:42.300 men in our lives do better by us.

00:30:48.820 That's exactly what you didn't need.

00:30:51.000 You didn't really, really need screechy Michelle Obama to be added to screechy Kamala, to be added 1.00

00:30:59.460 to screechy Hillary Clinton, to tell us that all the screechy women think men suck. 1.00

00:31:08.200 We get it. 1.00

00:31:09.880 We get it. 1.00

00:31:11.540 You hate our fucking guts. 1.00

00:31:13.900 We get it. 1.00

00:31:14.780 But we have somebody we can vote for so we can just go our separate ways.

00:31:20.620 So, men, the women in the Democrat Party genuinely don't like you.

00:31:29.240 I mean, they really, really don't like you.

00:31:33.600 If you don't believe me, would you believe Van Jones?

00:31:39.600 Because Van Jones said this yesterday, I think.

00:31:43.280 Quote, if progressives have a politics that says all white people are racist, all men are 0.97

00:31:51.620 toxic, and all billionaires are evil, it's kind of hard to keep them on our side. 0.94

00:31:57.000 If you're chasing people out of the party, you can't be mad when they leave.

00:32:03.740 Hmm.

00:32:04.900 Let me read that again, because he said it so well.

00:32:07.620 Van Jones said this on CNN. 0.99

00:32:09.140 If progressives have politics that says all white people are racist, all men are toxic, 0.98

00:32:14.860 and all billionaires are evil, it's kind of hard to keep them on your side. 0.99

00:32:18.480 If you're chasing them away, you can't be mad when they leave.

00:32:23.740 You know, I feel like they were mad when I left, because I kind of said the same thing

00:32:31.500 when I got canceled.

00:32:33.500 I kind of said that if you're going to say all white people are racist,

00:32:39.140 then I don't want to have any association with you.

00:32:42.760 And I got canceled worldwide.

00:32:47.480 Interesting fact.

00:32:48.480 In the depth of my cancellation, there were some people who supported me.

00:32:58.580 Some privately, some publicly.

00:33:02.140 Do you know one of the people who supported me privately?

00:33:06.600 Van Jones.

00:33:07.540 He actually called me and said, what the hell is this all about?

00:33:13.500 And then I told him.

00:33:15.520 And he listened.

00:33:16.740 You know, wished I had not worded it that way.

00:33:19.000 Was not supportive of my message whatsoever.

00:33:21.640 Just to be clear, he was not supportive of what I said.

00:33:27.140 But he was supportive of me.

00:33:30.620 Personally.

00:33:31.020 And said, in direct language, I don't think you're a racist.

00:33:38.140 But didn't love what I said.

00:33:40.160 Now, that's all I wanted.

00:33:42.080 That's all I wanted.

00:33:43.220 I didn't want him to love what I said.

00:33:45.800 So, he's a voice of reason.

00:33:51.340 Listen to him.

00:33:51.960 He knows that the Democrats are chasing people like me away and didn't need to.

00:33:58.820 I mean, I was basically Democrat leading all of my adult life.

00:34:03.700 I got chased away.

00:34:05.820 I mean, I ran from the people who said, well, we don't like you.

00:34:09.540 Maybe a little less of you would be great.

00:34:11.360 And I said, fine.

00:34:13.480 How about less than me?

00:34:15.280 Works for me, too.

00:34:16.840 I reached my limit.

00:34:19.500 So, that's why, if you wonder why I say good things about Van Jones,

00:34:23.560 it's because I think he sees the whole field.

00:34:27.280 And it's okay to be partisan.

00:34:30.440 Partisan's okay. 0.91

00:34:31.720 You know, everybody's partisan.

00:34:34.160 But he can see the whole field.

00:34:38.880 All right.

00:34:39.400 And I appreciate him.

00:34:57.320 Here's something Kim.com posted today about paying off the national debt.

00:35:02.740 Now, before I tell you this, I should remind you in the most obnoxious way,

00:35:08.440 so you're sick of hearing it.

00:35:10.660 I do have a degree in economics, and I have an MBA from a top school.

00:35:16.580 I should be able to understand what Kim.com says about paying off the debt.

00:35:22.760 I do not.

00:35:25.720 I'm not even close.

00:35:27.480 But I want to see if you do.

00:35:29.880 Or at very least, can we agree that nobody has any idea how to pay off the national debt?

00:35:36.300 All right.

00:35:36.880 So, here's what Kim.com says.

00:35:38.900 Now, by the way, I'm not saying he's wrong.

00:35:42.300 I have questions.

00:35:43.980 I don't know.

00:35:44.940 Would this work?

00:35:45.840 I don't see how it would.

00:35:47.340 He goes, the only way out about the national debt is to print $40 trillion,

00:35:53.640 settle all debt,

00:35:55.540 use gold reserves to get Americans through hyperinflation,

00:35:58.300 hyperinflation, and issue a new digital currency with limited supply and no mass surveillance,

00:36:04.120 abolish the Fed, and ban all interest on loans.

00:36:07.520 A bit of pain, but problem solved.

00:36:09.460 Question.

00:36:16.100 If you printed $40 trillion, that would make cash worthless,

00:36:21.620 but you'd use your gold reserves to get Americans through that hyperinflation,

00:36:27.620 how do you do that?

00:36:29.440 How would you use your gold reserves?

00:36:32.940 Would you do what?

00:36:35.760 Give everybody a little gold?

00:36:40.540 Back the dollar with gold?

00:36:42.980 What does that even mean?

00:36:44.860 To use our gold reserves to get us through the hyperinflation?

00:36:49.320 And then, how would issuing a new digital currency with limited supply help us?

00:36:55.960 Because that would, in addition to the $40 trillion,

00:37:00.660 we would be adding a new form of money on top of the $40 trillion.

00:37:03.940 So, our hyperinflation should go into hyper-turbo-extra hyperinflation, wouldn't it?

00:37:13.940 Abolish the Fed.

00:37:15.040 I'm not sure how that's exactly related to all of that.

00:37:20.460 And then, ban all interest on loans.

00:37:24.040 How could you have a functioning economy if you banned interest on loans?

00:37:29.320 What's the alternative to that?

00:37:30.980 And again, there might be an alternative to that.

00:37:33.640 Because remember, I'm starting with the assumption that Kim.com is very smart.

00:37:39.060 Because, you know, that's my impression of him.

00:37:42.100 So, if he's very smart and he's saying stuff I don't understand,

00:37:46.280 I don't automatically assume the problem's on his end.

00:37:49.860 So, I'm curious enough about it.

00:37:52.000 Is there enough to what he's saying that other people are saying,

00:37:55.940 yes, yes, I know exactly what he means?

00:38:00.080 Or is it just several concepts in the same place that don't fit together?

00:38:07.920 I don't know.

00:38:08.720 I do think the only way we can survive the national debt

00:38:16.060 is if Elon Musk can immediately cut spending

00:38:19.940 so that we get that part under control

00:38:22.380 and that we increase our growth rate beyond anything we've seen before.

00:38:28.040 Both are possible.

00:38:30.280 And both of them will require Elon Musk.

00:38:34.000 You're going to need Elon Musk for all of it.

00:38:36.860 Because the growth will require robots and AI and electric cars

00:38:40.960 and self-driving cabs and maybe spaceships. 0.78

00:38:45.540 So, it's kind of on him.

00:38:47.480 You know, he's got a lot going on for the future.

00:38:49.340 So, he would be the one behind the growth,

00:38:53.640 or at least a lot of it.

00:38:54.980 And then, he would also be the one behind cutting the costs.

00:39:00.640 To me, it's unbelievable that this election is close.

00:39:05.580 Now, I get how people say,

00:39:08.040 oh, Trump, Trump, Trump this.

00:39:10.360 But how do they explain that RFK Jr.,

00:39:14.340 Musk, Vivek, Tulsi,

00:39:19.340 I could go on.

00:39:21.920 How do Democrats explain 0.79

00:39:23.860 that they haven't noticed that Trump is Hitler

00:39:26.720 and that they think he has the best economic

00:39:30.020 and practical plan for solving problems?

00:39:34.040 How do they explain that?

00:39:35.900 I would just love to spend some time saying,

00:39:39.220 but do you think RFK Jr. couldn't spot Hitler?

00:39:44.600 Well, no, he's got some interest, blah, blah, blah.

00:39:48.420 Well, okay.

00:39:49.340 But you know, Israel likes Trump, right?

00:39:54.360 Yeah.

00:39:56.120 And you know that Israel is really good

00:39:58.720 at spotting the Hitlers.

00:40:00.840 They're really good at it.

00:40:03.600 Yeah.

00:40:04.720 And you know that Israel likes Trump so much

00:40:09.520 they named a town after him.

00:40:10.860 Ah, he's Hitler. 0.95

00:40:14.640 He's Hitler. 0.95

00:40:15.480 Okay.

00:40:16.420 I don't think you're hearing what I'm saying.

00:40:20.920 Anyway, so the pretend war between Israel and Iran

00:40:27.340 has gone to its logical conclusion.

00:40:30.380 So Israel, instead of doing something 0.99

00:40:34.700 that would increase the chance of a response,

00:40:39.920 they did something that would decrease

00:40:41.440 the chance of a response.

00:40:42.720 Now, the level of intelligence that Israel is bringing 1.00

00:40:49.400 to this fight, I'm getting tired of complimenting them,

00:40:54.400 you know, from the pager thing to pretty much everything,

00:40:58.740 at least since the poor defense of the Gaza situation.

00:41:03.180 And that was suboptimal.

00:41:05.820 But the way they've pressed the war is really impressive.

00:41:09.020 And so they, of course, they had to attack Iran 1.00

00:41:14.600 because Iran did the massive 200 missile strike.

00:41:18.000 He can't let that go.

00:41:20.560 But they managed to, as far as I know, kill zero people.

00:41:25.040 Is that right?

00:41:26.760 I think the death toll was zero of a fairly massive,

00:41:31.520 completely controlling the airspace over Iran,

00:41:34.600 didn't lose a single asset,

00:41:36.500 and destroyed all of, practically all of Iran's air defenses.

00:41:43.080 So the first thing Israel did was show that, 0.81

00:41:45.540 show Iran, and this is the important part,

00:41:48.520 that they could easily destroy Iran's entire air defense.

00:41:53.440 If you destroy their entire air defense,

00:41:56.840 can Iran win a war?

00:41:59.940 Well, it'd be kind of hard.

00:42:01.640 Iran has also demonstrated

00:42:05.360 that even a massive missile attack,

00:42:09.520 they can basically shoot down enough

00:42:12.540 that they were largely unscathed.

00:42:15.300 So now Iran has the following knowledge

00:42:18.120 that it did not have before.

00:42:20.360 Number one,

00:42:21.760 if your proxies go after us,

00:42:24.460 we will not just shoot back, 0.99

00:42:27.800 we will destroy the entire country that they're in. 0.99

00:42:33.160 That would be Gaza. 0.98

00:42:35.460 And if you think Hezbollah is going to be safe, 1.00

00:42:39.660 not so much. 1.00

00:42:40.780 We're going to blow up every one of their leaders. 0.99

00:42:42.820 We're going to keep trimming their leaders 0.99

00:42:44.820 for as long as it takes.

00:42:46.700 And we're going to blow up every military asset

00:42:49.720 that they have in their country,

00:42:51.060 no matter how long it takes.

00:42:52.540 So that's new.

00:42:55.700 So then they prove that

00:42:57.140 Iran's missiles aren't going to work.

00:43:00.060 And then they prove that Iran has no defense 1.00

00:43:02.240 because they don't have any air defense.

00:43:04.640 Israel took it out in one day.

00:43:08.720 I think that was the big story.

00:43:10.980 The big story is,

00:43:12.520 you see we're up here, right?

00:43:14.740 We're now above your entire country.

00:43:17.220 There's nothing you can do to shoot us down.

00:43:19.920 Do you want to keep this up?

00:43:22.540 It's pretty good.

00:43:24.420 But the thing that's amazing about this

00:43:27.400 is the level of civility that got into war, right?

00:43:34.220 War is normally more like Gaza. 0.96

00:43:36.660 It's messy and civilians are dying.

00:43:39.460 But somehow,

00:43:40.880 two countries made a deal to do a fake war.

00:43:45.380 And then they fought it.

00:43:47.440 And it was conclusive

00:43:49.200 because it's telling Iran,

00:43:51.360 OK, I guess I'm not going to make this a bigger war.

00:43:55.380 And some think that maybe Israel reduced their ability

00:43:58.880 to make more rockets for another year or so.

00:44:02.620 But here's what it almost feels like.

00:44:04.760 And I always use this,

00:44:05.700 it feels like an old Star Trek episode.

00:44:08.300 But here's what they could have done.

00:44:10.940 Both sides could have created a fake army base

00:44:14.060 and tell the other side it's fake.

00:44:17.500 Say, hey, Iran, we're going to build this army base.

00:44:19.980 It's going to be completely fake.

00:44:21.980 The F-35s we're going to put on it are cardboard.

00:44:26.060 But we are going to put our best defense.

00:44:28.580 So the missile defense

00:44:29.700 is going to be our best stuff.

00:44:32.080 But the things on the ground

00:44:33.440 are just cardboard and plastic

00:44:34.860 and it just looks like a base.

00:44:36.460 We'd like you to build one, too.

00:44:39.540 What?

00:44:40.160 Why would we build a fake base?

00:44:41.960 Trust us.

00:44:42.560 Just build a fake base just like ours.

00:44:44.780 But do put your best defense.

00:44:48.440 So make sure that you have real rocket defenses.

00:44:50.860 But the base itself should be fake.

00:44:53.440 Why do you want it to be fake?

00:44:55.060 Well, we don't want to hurt anybody.

00:44:56.180 We simply need to, every now and then,

00:45:01.760 compare our technologies.

00:45:04.000 So here's what's going to happen.

00:45:05.600 You attack our fake base 0.98

00:45:07.320 and we'll try to shoot down 0.99

00:45:08.960 as many of your drones and missiles as we can.

00:45:11.040 Then we'll see how you did.

00:45:12.720 Bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah.

00:45:14.120 Okay.

00:45:14.780 All right.

00:45:15.520 Two got through.

00:45:16.500 Not much damage.

00:45:17.560 What did you learn?

00:45:19.040 Well, we learned that

00:45:20.640 if this had been a real base

00:45:22.000 that we also would not have damaged anything.

00:45:24.900 Exactly.

00:45:25.680 Exactly.

00:45:26.440 Now, in a couple of days,

00:45:27.700 when we're ready,

00:45:28.580 we'll let you know when. 0.98

00:45:29.920 But we're going to attack your fake base. 0.74

00:45:33.500 And make sure you got lots of cardboard planes there

00:45:36.460 because we really want to make this a good test.

00:45:38.900 All right.

00:45:39.180 We have many cardboard planes.

00:45:41.260 Yeah.

00:45:41.520 But use real, real defense.

00:45:44.380 All right.

00:45:44.880 Your defense against our military

00:45:46.380 and our planes.

00:45:47.880 That should be real.

00:45:48.740 Yes, it'll be totally real.

00:45:50.280 Bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah, bah.

00:45:51.640 How'd you do?

00:45:52.640 Oh.

00:45:53.680 We lost 100% of our

00:45:55.680 anti-aircraft defense.

00:45:58.900 Okay.

00:45:59.920 Iran, what have you learned?

00:46:01.860 Okay.

00:46:03.000 Well,

00:46:03.640 we learned that when we attack you,

00:46:06.200 we don't really blow up anything.

00:46:08.880 You just blow our bombs out of the sky.

00:46:12.120 And then what else did you learn, Iran?

00:46:14.340 Okay.

00:46:15.480 We learned

00:46:16.260 that anytime you want to,

00:46:20.400 you can knock out all of our air defenses

00:46:22.340 and we're helpless

00:46:23.260 and then you can pick us all off.

00:46:25.760 Exactly.

00:46:26.680 So what should we do about this?

00:46:28.440 Well,

00:46:30.300 same as we were doing before?

00:46:33.160 No.

00:46:34.160 No.

00:46:36.140 Maybe we should

00:46:37.460 fund

00:46:38.900 Hezbollah

00:46:40.400 less?

00:46:41.940 That's it.

00:46:42.720 That's it.

00:46:43.660 Fund Hezbollah less.

00:46:46.940 Yes, do that.

00:46:48.380 Because if we have to blow up

00:46:50.100 another one of your fake bases,

00:46:51.680 we'll do it.

00:46:53.180 We'll do it.

00:46:54.360 Oh, yeah?

00:46:54.800 Well,

00:46:55.340 if you blow up another one

00:46:56.300 of our fake bases, 0.98

00:46:57.420 we're going to send missiles 0.99

00:46:58.680 at your fake bases 0.99

00:46:59.680 that you'll shoot out of the sky

00:47:00.880 before they even reach the ground.

00:47:04.440 So that's the kind of war I want. 0.97

00:47:06.540 I want a war 0.99

00:47:07.420 where nobody gets hurt.

00:47:09.360 There wasn't really any chance

00:47:10.840 anybody would.

00:47:12.260 It's all very civilized.

00:47:14.120 And when you're done,

00:47:14.880 you've learned something

00:47:15.760 really important.

00:47:17.540 You've learned 1.00

00:47:18.300 if you fuck with Israel, 1.00

00:47:19.940 they're going to mow your lawn. 1.00

00:47:22.080 And you're the lawn.

00:47:23.340 And if you take it

00:47:25.260 to the next level,

00:47:26.160 you're really,

00:47:26.960 really going to be sorry.

00:47:29.080 Message learned.

00:47:34.360 And that,

00:47:35.260 ladies and gentlemen,

00:47:36.720 is all I had to say today

00:47:40.240 because we're coming

00:47:42.860 into the final turn.

00:47:46.860 Let's see.

00:47:47.520 On Tuesday,

00:47:48.860 it'll be one week

00:47:49.540 from Election Day.

00:47:50.400 And how do you feel

00:47:54.620 about the polls?

00:47:57.220 So as you expected,

00:47:58.920 there will be enough polls

00:48:00.760 that say it's a tie

00:48:01.820 that cheating

00:48:03.340 is completely

00:48:04.620 on the table.

00:48:06.900 We do know

00:48:07.800 that there are so many reports

00:48:09.300 of irregularities.

00:48:10.500 I don't know how many are true

00:48:11.620 and how many are not.

00:48:13.060 That there's no way

00:48:14.700 that the public can trust

00:48:15.740 the outcome of the election.

00:48:16.940 And we know

00:48:18.260 that our politicians

00:48:19.080 on the losing side

00:48:20.980 will tell us

00:48:21.760 that the election was rigged.

00:48:23.680 Doesn't matter

00:48:24.160 which side loses.

00:48:27.220 Now,

00:48:28.100 I did see

00:48:29.700 Bill Maher

00:48:30.980 and I've seen

00:48:32.360 some other people

00:48:33.000 argue

00:48:33.360 that January 6th

00:48:35.480 is still

00:48:36.100 the big problem

00:48:37.620 and, you know,

00:48:39.080 Trump tried to

00:48:40.040 overturn the country

00:48:41.900 or take over the country.

00:48:43.600 Here's my best

00:48:45.420 sure argument

00:48:46.600 for that.

00:48:47.920 Number one,

00:48:48.920 what day

00:48:49.420 was the peaceful

00:48:50.300 transfer of power

00:48:51.260 scheduled to take place?

00:48:54.940 January 20th, right?

00:48:56.820 Is it 20th or 21st?

00:48:58.540 The actual transfer day?

00:49:01.200 Give me a fact check.

00:49:02.280 It's like January 20th

00:49:03.640 or 21st.

00:49:04.440 I forget.

00:49:06.400 But that's the day

00:49:07.540 of the peaceful transfer.

00:49:10.100 Was there a peaceful transfer?

00:49:12.640 Yes.

00:49:13.920 Yes, it was.

00:49:14.820 On the day

00:49:15.340 that it was planned.

00:49:17.440 What the Democrats

00:49:18.760 keep doing

00:49:19.480 is conflating

00:49:20.360 January 20th

00:49:21.460 with January 6th.

00:49:23.720 January 6th

00:49:24.840 is when

00:49:25.460 our system

00:49:26.260 allows you

00:49:27.000 to still argue

00:49:28.300 about who won.

00:49:30.420 Do you know

00:49:31.120 why they allow you

00:49:31.860 to argue about

00:49:32.540 who won?

00:49:34.040 Because we have courts

00:49:35.300 and we have free speech.

00:49:37.800 If you have free speech

00:49:39.040 and you have courts,

00:49:40.560 all of that time

00:49:41.820 between Election Day

00:49:42.860 and January 20th,

00:49:44.340 it's fair game.

00:49:45.920 You can protest.

00:49:47.500 You can complain.

00:49:49.120 You can demand audits.

00:49:51.300 You can

00:49:52.380 take things to court.

00:49:55.060 You can

00:49:55.860 fight as hard

00:49:57.460 as you want to fight,

00:49:58.560 you know,

00:49:59.000 in the political sense,

00:50:00.060 not the physical sense.

00:50:01.760 And

00:50:02.260 there's nothing wrong

00:50:03.840 with any of that.

00:50:05.300 Now,

00:50:06.040 did some people

00:50:06.860 take it to violence?

00:50:07.840 Yes.

00:50:08.480 Do both sides

00:50:09.360 wish that that

00:50:10.080 didn't happen?

00:50:10.620 Yes.

00:50:11.320 Were they

00:50:11.880 representative

00:50:12.620 of the larger

00:50:13.560 amount of the crowd?

00:50:14.380 No,

00:50:14.580 not even close.

00:50:15.920 Less than one,

00:50:16.700 fewer than one percent

00:50:17.520 of the people there

00:50:18.320 did anything violent.

00:50:20.720 So that,

00:50:21.100 and there's no evidence

00:50:22.340 that the mass

00:50:24.240 part of the crowd

00:50:25.140 had any plans

00:50:25.940 to do anything violent.

00:50:26.980 They just

00:50:27.720 didn't like

00:50:28.320 the election outcome.

00:50:29.760 So the first thing

00:50:30.920 you got to know

00:50:31.580 is that everything

00:50:32.920 Trump did,

00:50:34.180 if he believed

00:50:35.400 the election

00:50:35.940 was real,

00:50:37.220 was very bad.

00:50:40.320 And that's where

00:50:41.380 the Democrats start.

00:50:43.420 They start

00:50:44.040 with the assumption

00:50:44.820 that Trump

00:50:45.440 knew the election

00:50:46.500 was lost

00:50:47.340 on his part.

00:50:49.620 That's not just wrong, 1.00

00:50:50.980 it's stupid. 1.00

00:50:52.280 And we've been 1.00

00:50:53.200 allowing them 1.00

00:50:53.820 to do that stupid 1.00

00:50:54.760 thing for four years. 1.00

00:50:57.000 And I've not seen

00:50:58.000 one person say,

00:50:58.920 hold on, 1.00

00:51:00.240 you're starting stupid. 1.00

00:51:01.720 So we don't need 1.00

00:51:02.800 to talk about the rest

00:51:03.900 if your base assumption

00:51:05.500 is that somehow

00:51:06.900 the country could know

00:51:08.180 if the election

00:51:09.260 was rigged or not.

00:51:10.820 And that somehow

00:51:11.520 you believe that Trump

00:51:12.800 is not like

00:51:15.440 half of the country

00:51:16.260 that believes

00:51:16.800 it was rigged.

00:51:18.040 In what way

00:51:19.160 would you imagine

00:51:19.980 that he doesn't know

00:51:21.000 or doesn't believe

00:51:23.120 it was rigged

00:51:23.740 when I believe

00:51:24.480 it was rigged?

00:51:26.000 I do.

00:51:27.140 Half of the country

00:51:27.840 believes it was rigged.

00:51:29.100 I believe all of our

00:51:29.980 elections have been rigged,

00:51:31.660 at least in my lifetime.

00:51:34.820 And I believe

00:51:36.000 that the way

00:51:36.480 our system is designed,

00:51:38.200 it's for the purpose

00:51:39.700 of rigging.

00:51:41.280 Because if you wanted

00:51:42.520 to do it

00:51:43.060 for the purpose

00:51:43.660 of keeping it honest,

00:51:45.420 it would look

00:51:46.060 completely different.

00:51:47.060 And everybody knows that.

00:51:47.960 So every time I see

00:51:51.480 somebody get in

00:51:52.060 the conversation

00:51:52.680 about January 6th,

00:51:54.220 they let the bad guys

00:51:56.240 make them think

00:51:57.880 past the sale.

00:51:59.140 The sale

00:52:00.160 is what did

00:52:01.640 the protesters

00:52:02.380 and Trump believe

00:52:03.680 about the election.

00:52:05.520 If they genuinely

00:52:06.780 believed it was rigged

00:52:08.280 and it was obvious

00:52:09.360 it was rigged,

00:52:10.460 everything they did

00:52:11.620 was appropriate.

00:52:12.380 That's it.

00:52:17.140 And then you say,

00:52:18.320 but violence.

00:52:19.560 And I say,

00:52:20.480 I don't care.

00:52:23.840 Because if it was rigged

00:52:25.520 and 99% of the people

00:52:28.480 were nonviolent

00:52:29.300 but 1% were,

00:52:31.140 that's just the way

00:52:32.800 the world works.

00:52:34.300 I'm not in favor

00:52:35.240 of violence.

00:52:36.200 I'm just saying that

00:52:37.240 if you rig an election

00:52:38.340 right in front of the public,

00:52:39.840 expect some violence.

00:52:40.880 Expect some violence

00:52:43.360 if you rig it

00:52:44.060 right in front of the public.

00:52:45.600 Now,

00:52:45.900 I'm not saying it was rigged

00:52:47.160 because I don't have

00:52:48.180 proof of that.

00:52:49.860 I'm saying that

00:52:50.680 it was designed

00:52:51.480 for the purpose of rigging

00:52:53.780 and it has every hallmark

00:52:55.900 of being rigged

00:52:56.640 and every election

00:52:57.980 I've been involved with

00:52:59.520 probably was rigged.

00:53:01.220 And if the elections

00:53:02.160 are the only things

00:53:03.160 that can't be rigged

00:53:04.040 and aren't be rigged

00:53:04.900 in the United States

00:53:06.080 and every other institution

00:53:07.600 and major organization

00:53:08.980 from healthcare

00:53:10.060 to finance

00:53:10.900 to everything else

00:53:12.680 is so obviously rigged,

00:53:14.800 if you believe

00:53:16.600 this is the one thing

00:53:17.720 that's not

00:53:18.440 when it is the most

00:53:20.300 riggable thing

00:53:21.160 that we've ever had

00:53:21.960 in this country,

00:53:23.040 you're not a smart player.

00:53:27.460 You're just not putting 0.98

00:53:28.660 much brain power

00:53:29.540 into the conversation.

00:53:33.200 So those are the key points.

00:53:35.580 Don't let anybody assume

00:53:37.320 that anybody knew

00:53:39.380 the election was good

00:53:40.480 because that was just

00:53:42.040 not the case.

00:53:43.560 I've never talked

00:53:44.660 to anybody

00:53:45.280 that was involved

00:53:47.120 with a protest

00:53:47.900 who thought that Trump

00:53:49.120 actually lost.

00:53:51.380 Have you?

00:53:52.880 Have you ever spoken

00:53:54.060 to one person,

00:53:55.880 even one,

00:53:57.320 just one,

00:53:58.240 because there were like

00:53:59.040 20,000 people there

00:54:00.200 was a big number,

00:54:01.760 just even one person

00:54:02.840 who said,

00:54:04.500 I protested,

00:54:05.940 but, you know,

00:54:06.520 honestly,

00:54:06.960 I thought Trump

00:54:07.720 lost fair and square.

00:54:09.520 Even one?

00:54:11.500 If you can't find

00:54:12.680 one person

00:54:13.640 in that entire crowd

00:54:15.080 who believed

00:54:17.680 Trump lost,

00:54:19.040 why do you think

00:54:19.740 Trump believed it?

00:54:20.740 of course he thinks

00:54:23.700 he won.

00:54:24.860 Of course he does.

00:54:26.700 And imagine

00:54:27.300 what he's seen

00:54:28.080 that you haven't seen.

00:54:30.720 Can you imagine

00:54:31.700 how much stuff

00:54:32.460 you see when you're president,

00:54:34.440 when you find out

00:54:35.460 like what the CIA

00:54:36.540 has really been doing?

00:54:38.640 Suppose you knew

00:54:39.820 that your country

00:54:41.420 had overthrown

00:54:42.360 80 other countries.

00:54:44.460 I think we did

00:54:45.160 like 80 coup attempts.

00:54:47.120 I don't know

00:54:47.680 how many of the 80

00:54:48.360 succeeded,

00:54:49.000 but let's say

00:54:50.760 60 of the 80s

00:54:52.100 succeeded.

00:54:53.360 If you knew

00:54:54.240 for sure

00:54:54.900 that we could

00:54:57.740 overthrow countries

00:54:58.680 and get away with it

00:54:59.640 and not get caught,

00:55:00.980 how would you think

00:55:01.900 it wouldn't happen

00:55:02.500 in our country?

00:55:04.800 In what world

00:55:06.440 would they not

00:55:07.700 apply the same

00:55:08.760 skills

00:55:09.380 to control

00:55:10.700 this country?

00:55:11.560 And you listen

00:55:12.200 to the Democrats

00:55:13.000 like Kamala Harris

00:55:14.220 and they'll say

00:55:15.300 it out loud.

00:55:16.620 They'll say out loud

00:55:17.740 that, you know,

00:55:18.400 we can't allow

00:55:19.260 the free speech.

00:55:21.040 If you can't allow

00:55:22.020 the free speech,

00:55:22.720 you also can't allow

00:55:23.520 free elections.

00:55:25.260 You know that's

00:55:26.160 the same thing, right?

00:55:27.880 If you say that,

00:55:30.020 as Harris does,

00:55:32.980 that Elon Musk

00:55:34.400 is a bad person

00:55:35.120 because he lets people

00:55:35.920 say whatever they want

00:55:36.960 on social media,

00:55:38.840 if you can't have

00:55:40.620 free speech,

00:55:41.160 you can't have

00:55:41.540 free elections.

00:55:42.860 Like you couldn't

00:55:43.500 possibly be in favor

00:55:45.420 of free elections

00:55:46.220 if the person

00:55:47.360 running isn't

00:55:48.020 allowed to talk.

00:55:51.420 The people running

00:55:52.860 should be allowed

00:55:53.400 to talk.

00:55:54.860 And obviously

00:55:55.400 she would censor

00:55:57.480 them if she said

00:55:58.880 things that her side

00:56:00.020 said were not true.

00:56:02.320 So Kamala Harris

00:56:03.080 wants,

00:56:04.760 you know,

00:56:05.060 like on paper

00:56:05.800 she'd say yes,

00:56:06.720 anybody can run

00:56:07.500 for office,

00:56:08.100 but she would want

00:56:09.460 one of those people

00:56:10.380 to be uncensored

00:56:11.320 and the other

00:56:12.400 to be censored

00:56:13.280 because it disagreed

00:56:14.680 with her party.

00:56:16.840 It sounds like

00:56:17.720 I'm making that up,

00:56:18.700 but she says

00:56:19.360 that out loud.

00:56:21.200 Yeah.

00:56:21.660 So what would be

00:56:22.760 the point of running

00:56:23.500 for office

00:56:24.120 if the things

00:56:25.740 you said

00:56:26.240 could be censored

00:56:27.080 by the other side?

00:56:30.160 She's pretty much 0.87

00:56:31.460 telling you

00:56:31.960 she doesn't want 1.00

00:56:32.580 elections,

00:56:33.320 or at least

00:56:33.780 not real ones.

00:56:35.260 But maybe that's

00:56:36.200 not so different

00:56:37.060 than how it's been.

00:56:38.600 All right,

00:56:39.000 I'm going to go

00:56:39.580 talk to the

00:56:40.580 locals,

00:56:41.640 people privately,

00:56:42.460 and if you're

00:56:43.740 on X or YouTube

00:56:45.020 or Rumble,

00:56:45.820 thanks for joining.

00:56:48.660 I will remind you

00:56:50.140 that on Monday,

00:56:51.480 that would be tomorrow,

00:56:53.020 I'll be appearing

00:56:54.060 on The Young Turks

00:56:55.840 talking to Cenk

00:56:57.200 on Monday.

00:56:59.500 I guess the show

00:57:00.240 starts at 8 p.m.

00:57:01.600 Eastern time.

00:57:03.840 So that's

00:57:04.640 5 p.m.

00:57:05.540 my time.

00:57:07.400 And I think

00:57:08.740 actually you might

00:57:09.440 be surprised

00:57:10.120 by the outcome

00:57:10.820 of that.

00:57:12.460 And the prediction

00:57:14.680 is just because

00:57:15.920 Cenk is genuinely

00:57:19.080 interesting.

00:57:20.920 And he's genuinely

00:57:22.240 brave.

00:57:24.740 And if you put

00:57:25.820 those two together,

00:57:27.280 interesting and brave,

00:57:28.800 and then you throw

00:57:30.480 me into the mix,

00:57:32.280 because I got

00:57:34.160 nothing to lose.

00:57:34.920 and both of us,

00:57:38.580 I think both of us

00:57:39.440 would want to

00:57:40.340 create something

00:57:42.080 of value.

00:57:43.060 Like,

00:57:43.440 you know,

00:57:43.880 if we're just

00:57:44.980 yelling at each

00:57:45.600 other,

00:57:46.540 neither of us

00:57:47.380 could be happy

00:57:47.920 about that.

00:57:48.980 So I think

00:57:49.780 there is some

00:57:51.320 chance

00:57:51.860 we'll

00:57:53.560 maybe move

00:57:56.100 the needle

00:57:56.560 or

00:57:57.060 at least be

00:57:58.400 interesting enough

00:57:59.080 that you'll want

00:57:59.560 to watch it.

00:58:00.000 so I

00:58:01.280 recommend it

00:58:01.940 in advance.

00:58:04.180 All right,

00:58:04.820 everybody.
