Real Coffee with Scott Adams - Episode 2840 CWSA 05⧸15⧸25

00:00:00.160 The stocks are not looking good, so don't look at them.

00:00:05.580 Don't look. Don't look at your stocks.

00:00:08.960 Just let it happen.

00:00:11.860 Alright, as soon as I've got my comments working here.

00:00:15.920 There we go.

00:00:24.620 Good morning, everybody.

00:00:30.160 And welcome to the highlight of human civilization, like you've never seen before.

00:00:35.780 But if you'd like to take this experience up to levels that nobody's even seen with their tiny, shiny human brains,

00:00:43.040 all you need for that is a cup or a mug or a glass of tank of gels, a stein, a canteen jug, or a flask, a vessel of any kind.

00:00:51.460 Fill it with your favorite liquid.

00:00:53.400 I like coffee.

00:00:53.940 And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure of the dopamine at the end of the day.

00:00:58.860 The thing that makes everything better.

00:01:00.300 It's called the simultaneous sip, and it happens now.

00:01:10.080 Perfection.

00:01:10.480 Well, I wonder if there are any scientific studies that didn't need to happen because they could have just asked me.

00:01:24.480 Oh, yeah.

00:01:25.820 Here's one.

00:01:26.540 According to the AP, there's a study that shows that people who make good decisions have an unfair advantage.

00:01:34.840 Thank you, Omar, for bringing that to my attention.

00:01:43.280 And he said on X that they should have asked God.

00:01:47.140 Yeah.

00:01:48.040 Yeah.

00:01:48.380 I think I could have guessed that one right off the top.

00:01:52.180 Who has an unfair advantage?

00:01:54.080 People who make bad decisions or people who make good decisions?

00:01:57.980 I don't know.

00:01:59.100 Let me think about that.

00:02:00.480 All right.

00:02:02.680 I'm going to go with people who make good decisions.

00:02:06.320 All right.

00:02:07.140 I've got a question for you.

00:02:09.860 What the hell happened to the Fort Knox audit of the gold?

00:02:15.440 Do you think if Fort Knox actually had the gold that we wouldn't have seen it yet?

00:02:22.340 Are you telling me that Trump doesn't want to stand next to a giant pile of gold and have his picture taken?

00:02:28.640 There's probably nothing that he would like better than that, because I'm standing next to a pile of gold.

00:02:36.420 So I'm not sure we have any gold.

00:02:42.120 Well, according to Bindu Reddy, we're three to four years away from having a household robot that can cook and clean and fix things.

00:02:52.460 Well, what else could that robot do?

00:02:54.980 You know what I mean?

00:02:55.960 You know what I mean?

00:02:56.980 Wink, wink, wink.

00:02:57.920 Wink.

00:02:58.600 If they can cook and clean and fix things?

00:03:01.760 Well, just maybe.

00:03:05.120 Maybe it's a full service robot.

00:03:07.140 You don't know.

00:03:08.220 Maybe.

00:03:09.440 But doesn't three to four years away feel like not exactly what we've been told?

00:03:14.760 Because I thought when Elon Musk was talking about optimists, he was saying that it can, you know, dance and it can walk around and it can interact.

00:03:29.460 But what he didn't say is you could give it instructions on something he had never done before and it could go do it, you know, like wash the dishes or something like that.

00:03:40.880 I don't think they can do it.

00:03:43.020 So I'm still waiting for the robot demonstration where they have it do things that, you know, are just generic things.

00:03:53.020 It's like, can you put these dishes in the dishwasher?

00:03:56.240 All right.

00:03:57.100 Now, iron this shirt. 1.00

00:03:58.640 I don't think we're even close.

00:04:01.820 So three to four years sort of sounds like nuclear effusion.

00:04:09.200 You know, it's always 10 years away.

00:04:11.780 I've got a feeling the robots that can really do things for you, maybe they'll always be three years away.

00:04:19.920 I don't know.

00:04:20.460 I'm a little bit skeptical.

00:04:22.540 According to the Washington Times, overdose deaths fell 27% last year.

00:04:28.500 Is that new news?

00:04:29.480 Because I feel like we heard that before.

00:04:32.100 But they don't know exactly why, but my guess is it has to do with more access to the Narcan.

00:04:40.680 That's the thing that you give somebody who has a, who's having a overdose.

00:04:47.520 Probably the Narcan.

00:04:49.160 I can't think of anything else.

00:04:50.800 It's not like there's a supply is limited or anything like that.

00:04:56.720 So probably that.

00:04:57.900 Well, OMB director Russ Vogt says they intend to take the Doge agenda and the cuts and the momentum and the initiative and turn them into permanent savings.

00:05:10.980 Really?

00:05:14.820 How many of you think that's going to happen?

00:05:17.860 Do you think the Doge savings are just going to be turned into permanent savings?

00:05:24.400 Maybe.

00:05:25.760 But doesn't it just seem to you that they'll just treat it like it's money they can spend?

00:05:30.080 Well, we saved $150 billion on Doge.

00:05:33.920 So I guess we have another $150 billion, coincidentally, to spend on the military and the border.

00:05:41.460 I don't believe anything about, here's what I do believe.

00:05:46.000 I do believe that Doge was directionally correct and found real savings and that they were all dedicated professionals who were really trying to, you know, do the real thing.

00:06:00.820 I don't believe that our government can translate that into permanent savings.

00:06:07.380 I think they'll just spend it.

00:06:10.680 Now, that was my original prediction, that we wouldn't be able to translate it into the political part of the world.

00:06:21.060 As soon as we reached the political part, somebody would say, you know, we could probably get away with spending the same thing we spent last year,

00:06:30.160 even though it's moving us closer to doom, because, you know, people are just used to it.

00:06:37.520 They're used to the fact that we're going to spend maybe a little bit more this year than last year.

00:06:43.740 So I think that we're just going to take the Doge savings and say, free money, buy some more tanks.

00:06:50.260 I think that's what's going to happen.

00:06:53.160 Anyway.

00:06:53.560 Surprisingly, not, the U.S. Treasury is increasing the borrowing it needs to $514 billion,

00:07:05.020 which somebody says is a 320% jump from previous forecasts.

00:07:10.820 Oh, surprise.

00:07:12.980 The government is telling us numbers about the budget that we can't trust, and they get revised.

00:07:19.980 Okay.

00:07:20.420 All right, so put me down as someone who doesn't believe anything about the budget.

00:07:27.700 All the news about the budget, I just look at it and go, hmm, probably fake.

00:07:33.080 It doesn't matter if it's Trump or anyone else, because it's not like he's in the weeds on the budget. 0.99

00:07:40.700 I think once you do Congress plus budget, it's just all bullshit. 0.96

00:07:44.980 United Airlines has added basically a Dilbera cubicle option for people who want to pay a lot more. 0.78

00:07:58.180 So I think if you're going to go to Europe or something, it would be $5,000 to $6,000 for it.

00:08:03.820 But it's like a little cubicle.

00:08:06.320 You know, it's got a door.

00:08:07.780 It's got a big screen on it.

00:08:09.560 And you, I guess you're supposed to wear your headphones.

00:08:13.140 And it's got a little guest seat in there.

00:08:17.320 It's very, it's called the Polaris Studios.

00:08:20.860 And they're 25% bigger than the current fancy seats.

00:08:24.320 But basically, it's a cubicle.

00:08:28.060 I wouldn't mind at all.

00:08:30.760 I could probably fly a great distance if I were in a cubicle that had all the bells and whistles I needed.

00:08:38.920 Well, Adam and Carolla made a video talking about the problems, the Malibu people who lost their homes in that Palisades fire,

00:08:47.320 how hard it's going to be for them to rebuild.

00:08:49.160 So it turns out that all of those old homes that were there, you know, they've been there forever.

00:08:56.280 They had septic systems.

00:08:59.020 But they had septic systems before there were a bunch of environmental rules about septic systems.

00:09:07.060 So if they want to build back, they're going to have to remove the ones they have, build retaining walls underground.

00:09:15.600 That's what Adam Carolla says.

00:09:17.220 And meet the new standards for septic systems.

00:09:22.700 Do you know what that's going to cost per home?

00:09:26.120 Per home.

00:09:28.340 According to Adam Carolla, just the septic system.

00:09:33.000 So this is not building the home.

00:09:35.860 This is just the septic system.

00:09:39.160 Three to five million dollars.

00:09:40.940 I'm laughing because it's just so bad.

00:09:47.900 So those people who had homes in Malibu, unless they're just outrageously rich, it's not economically possible to even build back.

00:09:59.220 And how many years would it take for them to get approval for their septic systems?

00:10:06.440 So the people who were saying it looks like there's going to be some kind of land grab or, you know, somebody's going to try to get everything cheap and build a hotel there or something.

00:10:17.480 Well, I wasn't going to buy into the conspiracy theory, but I don't know what else you could do with this land.

00:10:30.000 Because how many people are going to spend three to five million dollars getting their septic system just right before they even build the house?

00:10:39.140 I mean, how rich would you have to be?

00:10:43.060 Pretty rich.

00:10:59.000 You're richer than you think.

00:11:00.080 Well, according to that new Jake Tapper and Alex Thompson book, that sound, Kamala Harris had to be trained for a social event. 0.98

00:11:12.780 So they actually did a practice dinner so that Kamala Harris could learn how to not embarrass herself eating dinner with important people.

00:11:24.340 Does that sound real to you?

00:11:27.320 I don't know how real any of this is.

00:11:28.960 But they called it a mock soiree.

00:11:33.240 And part of what they said was, and this is per the New York Post that read the book, I guess,

00:11:39.920 and said that Harris advisors had made it a, quote, dry run, opting not to serve wine to see if she could practice with a glass or two.

00:11:51.740 Now, I don't understand that sentence.

00:11:54.700 You know, I just copied this from X.

00:11:57.380 But what does it mean to opt not to serve wine, but then also to practice with a glass or two at the same time?

00:12:06.980 Those are opposites.

00:12:08.760 Are they empty glasses?

00:12:10.920 Could you be a little less specific?

00:12:12.480 You know what this suggests to me?

00:12:16.100 It kind of suggests to me that she can't do these social events unless she's got a glass or two of wine. 1.00

00:12:25.680 And then she probably gets cackly and stupid. 1.00

00:12:28.400 So I think her advisors were trying to figure out, is it even possible for you to do a dinner without having a glass of wine and being a cackly idiot? 1.00

00:12:40.980 I'm just speculating. 1.00

00:12:42.340 But why in the world would you take the vice president of the United States and tell her that she has to practice just eating with people because she's too embarrassing? 1.00

00:12:53.980 And apparently she agreed to that?

00:12:58.400 She must have known that she couldn't sit down and have dinner with people without... 0.98

00:13:04.540 I don't know.

00:13:06.500 Just because it's a new book doesn't mean it's all true or that the context is all there.

00:13:11.840 So probably something missing in that story.

00:13:14.360 Well, Gavin Newsom continues to move right without embedding it.

00:13:24.920 So now he wants to slash health benefits for illegal immigrants in California.

00:13:30.100 Because it turns out that those health benefits for illegal immigrants turned out to be our entire deficit. 1.00

00:13:37.340 $10 billion or whatever.

00:13:39.420 So yeah, he's pretty much going to have to do that.

00:13:42.120 Now, on top of that, he's ordered the removal of California homeless camps.

00:13:49.580 So he's trying to become the common sense governor.

00:13:55.560 I don't know if he could pull it off.

00:13:57.860 Do you?

00:13:58.880 I feel like the Democrats couldn't possibly pick a white guy, like a generic heterosexual white guy, as their next standard bearer.

00:14:09.760 How can they possibly do that?

00:14:14.440 I don't think they can.

00:14:16.520 So I don't think he can become president.

00:14:19.540 But he's definitely trying.

00:14:22.400 And if he keeps trying, well, maybe my state will get a little bit better while he's flailing away.

00:14:29.360 According to Business Insider, wealthy people and their consumer spending is what's warding off a recession.

00:14:41.220 Does that sound right to you?

00:14:43.620 I feel like nothing in the news sounds right.

00:14:48.280 Like just sort of it doesn't smell right, sit right, sound right.

00:14:52.840 Do you believe that wealthy people suddenly started spending more at Walmart?

00:14:58.920 Because that's part of the story.

00:15:01.380 Literally, Walmart is saying that wealthy people are spending more money at Walmart.

00:15:07.280 Really?

00:15:08.820 How many of you believe that wealthy people have suddenly decided to spend more money at Walmart?

00:15:15.040 I don't believe that.

00:15:18.780 I don't know what kind of economic data this is.

00:15:22.440 But none of it looks real to me.

00:15:25.760 All right.

00:15:26.780 You may have heard about this one before, but there's a school called Alpha.

00:15:31.680 Alpha School.

00:15:33.540 And instead of doing normal lessons, they give the kids two hours of AI training.

00:15:41.480 So I think they each have a laptop and some headphones, but they're in a common area.

00:15:48.720 And the AI adapts to the students and teaches them the lessons.

00:15:54.100 But after the two hours, they're done with regular classes.

00:16:00.340 Now, they still learn things, but it's life-related things like how to tie your shoes and how to go swimming

00:16:07.300 and basically how to navigate the real world.

00:16:11.480 And allegedly, these scores of the people who go to this little school are in the top 1% or 2% in the country.

00:16:20.020 I think that may have more to do with the selection process of who's in the school in the first place.

00:16:25.380 But if you can really train these young kids in two hours and they can get not just, you know, get the basics idea of school,

00:16:39.940 but do better than other people, that makes a lot of sense to me.

00:16:44.940 Because I remember being young and in school and I would just be exhausted and it was hard to pay attention after a while.

00:16:52.740 But if you gave me headphones and said, you know, you only have two hours, I could probably focus on that.

00:17:00.980 So Alpha School, good for you. 0.96

00:17:04.580 Well, I wanted to help out the Democrats because they're struggling, trying to come up with some messaging that's convincing.

00:17:14.280 And, you know, Bernie Sanders and AOC came up with oligarchs.

00:17:17.800 But James Carville pointed out, and others did, people don't know what an oligarch is.

00:17:25.200 So I asked Grok to give me some words that mean about the same as oligarch,

00:17:32.880 but are even less likely to be recognized.

00:17:38.160 You know, words that are even less common than oligarch.

00:17:40.820 And it came up with a mammonist and plutocrat.

00:17:46.180 How many of you would know what a mammonist is?

00:17:50.360 So mammon is referring to the, I don't know, worship of money.

00:17:54.980 So if you're a mammonist, you're someone who worships money. 0.78

00:17:59.480 It doesn't necessarily mean you're an oligarch in charge of things, but you really like your money.

00:18:04.980 And then a plutocrat is pretty much an oligarch.

00:18:08.900 I don't know if there's any difference there.

00:18:12.260 So I think they should go from trying to stop the oligarchs to going after the mammonist plutocrats. 1.00

00:18:21.060 Because it's the only thing dumber than what they're already doing. 0.98

00:18:25.500 Mammonist plutocrats. 0.98

00:18:29.260 And then maybe they can tell us if the mammonist plutocrats are as dangerous as the oligarchs with their habeas corpus. 0.99

00:18:36.960 Every time I see a Democrat on TV saying, we've got to maintain the habeas corpus, I think to myself, how many Democrats just turned that off because they don't know what you're talking about?

00:18:51.520 I mean, how many of you would know what habeas corpus was if he didn't follow the news closely?

00:18:58.480 I had to look it up.

00:19:03.920 But Democrats, they're lost.

00:19:07.160 Do you remember the story that also came from that same Jake Tapper book and Alex Thompson book that claimed that Biden didn't recognize George Clooney?

00:19:18.760 And that was like the big news yesterday.

00:19:21.320 Oh, my God.

00:19:22.060 Biden didn't even recognize Clooney.

00:19:23.940 Well, it turns out that the two-way podcast had a guest, Rufus Gifford, who was actually there personally.

00:19:35.300 So he wasn't at a distance.

00:19:37.780 He was right there when Biden and Clooney shook hands.

00:19:43.440 And his version is that never happened.

00:19:45.500 That there was never a time that Biden didn't recognize Clooney because the advisors were introducing the people to Biden, regardless of whether he'd met them before.

00:19:59.080 So apparently the advisor, before anybody said anything to each other, said, and President Biden, here's George Clooney and somebody else.

00:20:11.580 So he was actually introduced as George Clooney because they were just sort of, you know, standard procedure, just introducing everybody, which is the right thing to do, by the way.

00:20:26.300 Yeah.

00:20:26.960 And George Clooney doesn't look like George Clooney anymore because I think he was getting ready to, you know, play a part in the play.

00:20:34.180 So it could be that he didn't recognize him, but that would be more because he doesn't look like him.

00:20:42.480 Clooney just doesn't look like Clooney.

00:20:45.640 I don't know.

00:20:46.820 So we don't know if any of that's true.

00:20:50.400 And then according to the New York Post, which was also reading the same book, I guess, the Tapper book,

00:20:56.980 Biden forgot the names of longtime aides like Jake Sullivan, Kate Bedingfield, halfway through his term.

00:21:05.080 So I guess he was getting more forgetful as the term went by.

00:21:09.640 He was calling, I think he was calling Jake Sullivan Steve.

00:21:15.460 And the other one, he just called Press.

00:21:19.060 So he was just coming up with his own nicknames for people randomly.

00:21:24.820 Mary, come over here. 1.00

00:21:26.100 You, George.

00:21:30.980 I think he wasn't even trying after a while.

00:21:35.260 Sebastian, come over here.

00:21:39.860 Anyway.

00:21:42.660 So if you didn't hear it, Trump gave a really interesting speech while he was in Saudi Arabia.

00:21:50.300 So he's already going to Qatar.

00:21:52.760 And today I think he's in the UAE.

00:21:55.000 But I think he made a lot of news with his speech.

00:21:59.440 So the essence of his speech was that the people who tried to, let's say, nation build in other countries didn't understand the culture of those other countries and just basically ruined the countries instead of helping them.

00:22:17.980 But where the countries did their own work, such as Saudi Arabia, you know, nobody, nobody tried to turn it into something else.

00:22:27.560 But the Saudi Arabia did great because they just used their own, they did it their way, basically. 0.88

00:22:34.100 But it's so good, I want to just read you the central part of this speech because it didn't get a lot of play on TV.

00:22:44.080 So this was Trump talking to the Saudis and the world, I guess, it's crucial for the wider world to know this great transformation has not come from Western interventionists or flying people in beautiful planes giving you lectures on how to live and how to govern your own affairs.

00:23:04.640 In the end, the so-called nation builders wrecked far more nations than they built and the interventionists were intervening in complex societies that they did not even understand themselves.

00:23:19.580 No, the gleaming marvels of Riyadh and Abu Dhabi were not created by the so-called nation builders, neocons, or liberal non-profits like those who spent trillions and trillions of dollars failing to develop Baghdad and so many other cities.

00:23:38.700 Instead, the birth of modern Middle East has been brought by the people of the region themselves.

00:23:44.060 The people that are the people that have lived here, the people that have lived here all their lives, developing their own sovereign countries, pursuing their own unique visions, and charting your own destinies in your own way.

00:23:58.060 They told you how to do it, but they had no idea how to do it themselves.

00:24:02.400 Peace, prosperity, and progress ultimately came not from radical rejection of your heritage, but rather from embracing your national traditions

00:24:11.520 and embracing that same heritage that you love so dearly, you achieved a modern miracle the Arabian way.

00:24:19.680 So what he was doing is just giving Saudi Arabia and the other countries he visited a huge respect 0.99

00:24:29.160 and saying that when the Americans, mostly, were interfering in the Middle East, they just ruined shit. 1.00

00:24:36.300 And that's a pretty radical thing to say after all the years of Americans and Europeans going over there and ruining shit. 1.00

00:24:48.220 He just says it never worked and never made sense, and the people who went over there didn't really understand the place 0.98

00:24:54.920 and didn't really have a chance of fixing anything or making anything better.

00:24:59.920 But when people were left alone, at least in many cases, they came up with a wonderful society.

00:25:09.740 So I do like how he's handling that.

00:25:14.500 You know, I do like how he's basically a non-interventionist, and he's giving them their due.

00:25:25.020 So that's a good job.

00:25:26.100 But Megyn Kelly said recently in Related News, she said, quote,

00:25:34.200 I feel like when I was on Fox News, all we did was cheerlead these wars

00:25:39.500 and kind of dismiss or express disdain for people who had serious questions about them.

00:25:45.900 With the benefit of all this hindsight, that was wrong.

00:25:49.460 Now, I appreciate the fact that she just says right out, you know, outright, that was wrong.

00:25:54.340 So that's the way to handle it.

00:25:57.920 You know, rather than try to say, well, you have to understand, you know, the forces that were blah, blah.

00:26:05.000 No, she just says, no, with hindsight, that was just wrong.

00:26:08.940 And it did seem like that, didn't it?

00:26:12.460 It seemed like Fox News might have been cheerleading a little bit some prior wars.

00:26:18.060 So I guess we're done with that, at least under the Trump regime, we won't be starting wars that don't need to be started.

00:26:28.780 But then after Trump reads this great speech that I thought was well put together,

00:26:34.740 he gets to Qatar, and he's sitting there with presumably the emir, I don't know, but I think it was the emir, head of Qatar,

00:26:45.240 and he's just making conversation.

00:26:50.320 I swear to God, nobody makes conversation like Trump does.

00:26:54.560 And he said, and I quote, as a construction guy, this is perfect marble.

00:27:00.580 He's looking at the floor.

00:27:02.180 He said, this is what they call perfecto.

00:27:04.700 And we appreciate those camels.

00:27:07.000 Haven't seen camels like that in a long time.

00:27:11.800 Haven't seen camels like that in a long time.

00:27:15.980 He's just making conversation.

00:27:17.920 But who in the world would even say that sentence?

00:27:24.180 Like, there's nobody in the rest of the entire planet who would have said to the emir of Qatar,

00:27:30.080 haven't seen camels like that in a long time.

00:27:38.640 Why is that so funny?

00:27:40.860 It's so funny because nobody would say that.

00:27:44.880 Oh, my God.

00:27:45.820 So the critics of Trump by now have probably said, I haven't seen it,

00:27:53.300 but they've probably said that Trump is easy to flatter

00:27:56.860 because both Saudi Arabia and Qatar put on, like, you know, major red carpet,

00:28:04.060 and they had horses and, you know, I guess some camels,

00:28:08.840 and they had some painted cyber trucks,

00:28:13.420 and they had jets escorting Air Force One into their airspace.

00:28:19.740 And so you might say to yourself, oh, they're really playing him

00:28:24.420 because his ego is big.

00:28:27.120 So if they play to his ego, you know,

00:28:30.500 they're going to have a little extra influence with him.

00:28:33.780 Well, I think that's true.

00:28:35.120 I think if somebody is good to you, you have a little extra influence there.

00:28:40.180 So there's something to that.

00:28:42.200 But there's something bigger to it that's way more important,

00:28:47.060 which is the next country that Trump visits,

00:28:53.960 they're going to have to ask themselves if they need more camels.

00:28:57.480 What are we going to do?

00:29:02.800 Do we need more jets, cyber trucks, red carpets, camels?

00:29:07.900 What about horses?

00:29:10.060 Do we need horses?

00:29:13.760 So by Saudi Arabia and Qatar creating a standard,

00:29:20.780 you know, because there were two of them and it got so much press,

00:29:23.260 if you were, I don't know,

00:29:27.080 if you're the next country that's not in the Middle East

00:29:29.880 and it's your job to meet the president,

00:29:33.300 don't you feel like you have to take it up a level?

00:29:37.320 The net effect is less on Trump,

00:29:42.240 but, you know, yeah,

00:29:43.300 there's definitely some persuasion effect on Trump as well.

00:29:47.260 The big effect is what it will do to the other countries.

00:29:50.240 So people are going to start thinking,

00:29:53.900 oh, my God, you know,

00:29:55.280 we have to treat him like he's more like a god coming into our country

00:30:00.700 or a king or something.

00:30:02.800 You know, we can't treat him like the way we normally do.

00:30:05.480 It looks like he's the special visitor

00:30:08.120 and he's going to need the really, the ultra treatment.

00:30:11.540 So I think it could have this big lasting ripple effect

00:30:17.460 where wherever he goes,

00:30:19.460 he's treated with a better greeting

00:30:22.900 than anybody's ever been treated.

00:30:25.440 And then they'll all convince themselves

00:30:27.420 that they're being clever.

00:30:30.520 Yeah, we're going to influence him.

00:30:32.740 We're definitely going to influence him by this greeting,

00:30:35.360 but it will just make him look like a king,

00:30:38.040 like a god king to the rest of the world.

00:30:40.320 Which is all to his benefit

00:30:43.340 because then he can just get more stuff done

00:30:46.140 because they're going to think,

00:30:48.540 well, nobody can solve this problem except Trump.

00:30:52.640 And he's almost there now.

00:30:54.780 I mean, but, you know,

00:30:56.320 any backup for that would make it even better.

00:30:59.520 I mean, just think about it.

00:31:00.860 Don't you think

00:31:01.900 that there are countries in the world

00:31:05.020 who are thinking exactly this thought?

00:31:07.340 Nobody but Trump

00:31:09.400 could solve whatever problem,

00:31:12.360 you know, whatever problem they're thinking about.

00:31:14.760 I think so.

00:31:16.260 Because he's creating that aura,

00:31:19.760 that image that will just follow him around.

00:31:22.620 Even if it's not true,

00:31:25.360 the way they treat them

00:31:26.780 is going to,

00:31:27.580 the way they treat him

00:31:28.700 is going to create this aura

00:31:30.780 that will actually make him able

00:31:33.440 to get things done

00:31:34.420 that nobody could get done.

00:31:37.200 So the flattery

00:31:38.600 is definitely working.

00:32:39.780 Please play responsibly.

00:32:41.800 Well, the problem with Qatar, 1.00

00:32:44.460 as you know,

00:32:45.420 is that they have some history

00:32:47.900 of supporting terrorists.

00:32:51.960 And at the same time,

00:32:55.280 they have a long history

00:32:56.260 of being good to the United States.

00:32:58.040 So we got a base there

00:32:59.460 that they've invested in the U.S.,

00:33:02.280 and I think they invested some more.

00:33:05.160 And so on one hand,

00:33:07.240 they're really good to the United States.

00:33:09.820 But on the other hand,

00:33:11.300 they seem to be really good

00:33:12.460 to the terrorists

00:33:13.240 that the United States 0.99

00:33:14.800 really would like to be dead.

00:33:16.980 So how does any of that work?

00:33:21.420 Like, don't you think

00:33:22.120 that would be awkward

00:33:23.120 if the Qataris had to explain that?

00:33:26.940 Well, I think it was Brett Baer

00:33:28.520 who was asking

00:33:29.400 one of the representatives.

00:33:31.120 It wasn't the Amir, 0.99

00:33:32.440 but somebody who was pretty good

00:33:34.220 at answering questions.

00:33:35.800 And I was impressed

00:33:37.240 at the way he went about it.

00:33:41.440 Now, I got to be careful here

00:33:43.660 because I know you're going

00:33:45.120 to mishear me.

00:33:45.940 So 10% of you

00:33:47.720 are going to hear

00:33:48.920 not what I say,

00:33:50.020 but what you imagine I'm saying.

00:33:52.160 I'm not saying,

00:33:53.920 I'm not saying

00:33:55.360 that the Qataris are good people

00:33:58.680 who are not doing anything

00:34:00.520 that we don't like.

00:34:02.660 I'm not saying that.

00:34:04.440 I'm saying that the way

00:34:05.480 he answered the question

00:34:06.880 was pretty damn good

00:34:09.240 from a persuasion perspective.

00:34:12.200 So when asked about,

00:34:13.940 you know,

00:34:14.160 how he could be like a,

00:34:15.940 an ally of the United States,

00:34:18.160 at the same time,

00:34:19.280 he's,

00:34:19.960 they're supporting Hamas.

00:34:22.720 The representative said

00:34:24.500 that it's a national,

00:34:26.720 I forget the exact word,

00:34:30.720 but sort of a national

00:34:32.300 belief or priority

00:34:35.020 that they can mediate

00:34:36.640 that they can mediate

00:34:37.720 all conflicts.

00:34:40.080 And I thought to myself, 0.99

00:34:41.700 damn, 0.99

00:34:42.740 you actually pulled that off. 1.00

00:34:44.840 You actually came up

00:34:46.240 with a reframe

00:34:47.260 that makes sense

00:34:48.860 that you could talk

00:34:49.800 to Hitler 0.88

00:34:50.480 and,

00:34:51.840 you know,

00:34:53.240 non-Hitler 0.60

00:34:53.940 at the same time.

00:34:55.480 Because if it's true,

00:34:57.180 and again,

00:34:57.900 remember,

00:34:58.440 I'm not being fooled

00:34:59.480 by what's true

00:35:00.960 or what's not true.

00:35:02.500 So we're not talking

00:35:03.560 about what's real.

00:35:04.940 I'm just talking about

00:35:05.900 his communication

00:35:06.860 and persuasion

00:35:07.660 capabilities.

00:35:09.660 And when he,

00:35:10.320 when he phrased it

00:35:11.400 as,

00:35:12.740 we'll talk,

00:35:13.740 basically,

00:35:14.340 I'm paraphrasing,

00:35:15.620 but that they would be

00:35:17.120 good to everybody

00:35:18.300 because that would put him

00:35:20.360 in a position

00:35:20.960 where they could be

00:35:21.760 a mediator

00:35:23.280 to solve wars.

00:35:25.140 I thought to myself,

00:35:26.700 God,

00:35:27.140 that's so good.

00:35:28.540 It's not that far

00:35:29.840 from what Trump believes,

00:35:31.880 which is

00:35:32.780 just because

00:35:33.920 somebody's done

00:35:34.680 terrible things

00:35:35.500 and might do

00:35:36.060 terrible things

00:35:36.740 in the future,

00:35:38.380 doesn't mean

00:35:38.900 he can't talk to them.

00:35:41.420 And

00:35:41.800 so

00:35:43.360 watching

00:35:44.780 Qatar

00:35:45.540 be that capable

00:35:47.640 in

00:35:48.260 defending

00:35:49.620 whatever it is

00:35:50.540 they're doing,

00:35:51.020 because I don't know,

00:35:51.760 I mean,

00:35:52.760 if you listen

00:35:53.340 to the news,

00:35:54.680 you know,

00:35:55.540 somebody in Qatar

00:35:56.600 is funding

00:35:58.120 the terrorists.

00:36:00.300 I don't know.

00:36:01.160 I don't know

00:36:01.580 if that's the government

00:36:02.440 or just rich people

00:36:03.480 in Qatar

00:36:03.920 or if it's really

00:36:05.420 happening or not

00:36:06.260 happening.

00:36:07.260 These stories

00:36:08.120 are hard to know

00:36:08.780 what's really true.

00:36:11.180 But boy,

00:36:11.560 that was a good answer.

00:36:13.520 So,

00:36:13.940 again,

00:36:14.780 I'm not supporting

00:36:16.460 them.

00:36:17.100 I'm not supporting

00:36:17.860 their support

00:36:18.780 of the terrorists.

00:36:20.540 I'm just saying

00:36:21.260 they defended

00:36:22.520 their situation

00:36:24.240 better than I would

00:36:25.140 expect anybody

00:36:25.960 could have.

00:36:27.360 It was impressive.

00:36:29.360 Anyway,

00:36:30.400 Trump's

00:36:31.160 probably in the

00:36:32.260 UAE by now.

00:36:34.320 I haven't seen

00:36:35.000 any updates

00:36:35.640 if he's made

00:36:36.660 any deals

00:36:37.240 or whatever.

00:36:39.000 But apparently

00:36:39.940 he secured

00:36:40.920 $1.2 trillion

00:36:42.440 from Qatar,

00:36:44.080 according to

00:36:44.500 The Washington Times.

00:36:46.380 Nearly

00:36:46.980 $2 trillion

00:36:47.660 in deals

00:36:48.220 for U.S.

00:36:49.140 companies,

00:36:49.680 including more

00:36:50.340 than $1.2 trillion

00:36:52.840 in economic

00:36:53.520 investment

00:36:54.080 by Qatar.

00:36:56.060 And

00:36:56.560 a lot of

00:36:58.200 his commitments

00:37:00.060 that he's getting

00:37:00.740 in the Middle East,

00:37:02.480 they seem

00:37:02.980 related to

00:37:04.480 yeah,

00:37:06.540 Qatar is the 1.00

00:37:07.240 correct pronunciation.

00:37:08.600 It's not Qatar.

00:37:10.420 But I guess

00:37:11.260 in the U.S.

00:37:11.880 we call it Qatar,

00:37:13.160 but if you were

00:37:13.760 in Qatar,

00:37:14.340 you'd call it Qatar

00:37:15.100 because that's

00:37:15.660 the actual name.

00:37:17.180 So I'm trying

00:37:18.040 to be correct.

00:37:21.140 But some

00:37:21.980 of these deals

00:37:22.640 are that

00:37:23.140 they're going

00:37:23.640 to buy

00:37:24.600 billions of dollars

00:37:25.600 worth of

00:37:26.120 Boeing planes,

00:37:27.620 to which I say,

00:37:29.880 well,

00:37:30.520 that's convenient.

00:37:33.280 I would like

00:37:34.220 to announce

00:37:34.860 today

00:37:35.360 that I am

00:37:36.740 also

00:37:37.300 going to buy

00:37:38.820 100

00:37:39.780 Boeing airplanes.

00:37:41.800 No,

00:37:42.380 really.

00:37:43.180 Seriously.

00:37:43.640 If it takes

00:37:45.780 10 years

00:37:46.360 to build

00:37:46.820 me my plane,

00:37:47.760 I don't know

00:37:48.180 if I'll

00:37:48.780 still be around

00:37:49.840 to buy it,

00:37:51.520 but oh,

00:37:52.280 I'll totally

00:37:52.880 commit to

00:37:53.720 billions of dollars

00:37:55.660 of planes

00:37:56.220 that they can't

00:37:56.940 make for 10

00:37:57.540 to 15 years.

00:37:58.520 How long

00:37:59.060 does it take

00:37:59.580 Boeing to make

00:38:00.300 one plane?

00:38:03.580 It's so long

00:38:04.840 that I feel

00:38:06.240 like these

00:38:06.700 Middle East

00:38:07.120 companies are

00:38:07.800 gaming the system.

00:38:09.600 Oh,

00:38:09.900 yeah.

00:38:10.900 How about

00:38:11.480 how about

00:38:12.700 we agree

00:38:13.220 to buy

00:38:13.820 200

00:38:15.060 Boeing

00:38:15.620 planes?

00:38:17.940 That will

00:38:18.640 be done

00:38:19.140 at the

00:38:19.760 year 2050,

00:38:21.440 and by

00:38:22.980 then,

00:38:23.400 anything

00:38:23.740 could be

00:38:24.160 different.

00:38:24.640 There'll be

00:38:24.860 a different

00:38:25.220 president.

00:38:25.880 The world

00:38:26.220 is different.

00:38:27.760 I don't know.

00:38:28.480 I don't trust

00:38:29.140 these deals,

00:38:30.000 but it's

00:38:30.580 probably better

00:38:31.100 than having

00:38:31.520 no deals.

00:38:34.300 According

00:38:34.820 to Breitbart

00:38:35.360 News,

00:38:35.940 the Trump

00:38:38.020 effect is

00:38:39.240 affecting

00:38:39.900 NATO,

00:38:41.260 and they're

00:38:42.040 trying desperately

00:38:43.340 to get all

00:38:43.900 their members

00:38:44.440 to 5%

00:38:46.100 defense spending,

00:38:48.420 5% of their

00:38:49.120 budgets.

00:38:50.940 And I guess

00:38:51.720 there's some

00:38:52.080 meeting coming

00:38:52.660 up.

00:38:53.180 We'll see if

00:38:53.840 the Trump

00:38:54.760 effect works.

00:38:56.500 But meanwhile,

00:38:57.440 speaking of

00:38:57.960 NATO,

00:39:00.280 you know how

00:39:01.160 Zelensky was

00:39:02.120 going to go

00:39:02.620 to Turkey

00:39:03.720 and meet

00:39:04.920 with Putin?

00:39:05.940 And they

00:39:06.620 were going

00:39:06.880 to talk

00:39:07.280 face-to-face.

00:39:09.100 Well,

00:39:09.720 Putin decided

00:39:10.440 not to

00:39:10.920 go.

00:39:13.860 So Zelensky 0.86

00:39:15.100 shows up

00:39:15.780 with his

00:39:16.160 finger up 1.00

00:39:16.740 his ass, 1.00

00:39:18.200 and Putin 1.00

00:39:20.340 sends some

00:39:21.000 lower-level

00:39:21.600 people who

00:39:22.200 could never

00:39:22.560 make any

00:39:23.060 decisions,

00:39:23.760 so there's

00:39:24.060 no point

00:39:24.440 in talking

00:39:24.840 to him.

00:39:25.800 So that

00:39:26.260 whole trip

00:39:26.980 turned down

00:39:28.380 to be

00:39:28.820 yoink. 0.96

00:39:31.380 Yeah,

00:39:31.980 I'll be

00:39:32.280 there any

00:39:32.760 minute.

00:39:33.740 No,

00:39:34.100 I'm not.

00:39:35.940 The joke's

00:39:36.700 on you.

00:39:37.560 I'm not

00:39:38.180 even going

00:39:38.600 to show

00:39:38.960 up.

00:39:39.800 Now,

00:39:40.120 at one

00:39:40.320 point,

00:39:40.700 Putin

00:39:40.960 tried to

00:39:41.400 get

00:39:41.600 Trump

00:39:41.920 to

00:39:42.140 go,

00:39:43.500 and I

00:39:44.660 assume in

00:39:45.200 that case

00:39:45.720 Putin

00:39:46.120 would have

00:39:46.420 showed up

00:39:46.860 if Trump

00:39:47.300 was going

00:39:47.660 to go.

00:39:47.880 But the

00:39:49.260 fact that

00:39:49.820 Putin agreed

00:39:50.620 to meet

00:39:51.020 Zelensky

00:39:51.640 in Turkey,

00:39:53.740 and then

00:39:54.080 Zelensky

00:39:54.580 goes all

00:39:55.080 the way

00:39:55.300 to Turkey,

00:39:56.020 and it's

00:39:56.260 just these

00:39:56.740 lower-level,

00:39:58.580 can't-make-a-decision

00:39:59.660 Russians, 0.78

00:40:00.800 oh my

00:40:01.340 God,

00:40:02.960 that's

00:40:03.720 worse than

00:40:04.200 the war.

00:40:05.080 That is

00:40:05.780 so disrespectful

00:40:07.040 to Zelensky,

00:40:09.620 but I'm

00:40:11.100 sure Putin

00:40:11.580 had his

00:40:11.960 reasons.

00:40:12.340 anyway.

00:40:16.080 So that

00:40:16.960 was quite

00:40:17.460 a slap

00:40:18.340 in the 0.99

00:40:18.600 face.

00:40:21.560 Wow.

00:40:24.240 So here's

00:40:25.360 the big

00:40:25.940 news of

00:40:26.440 the day

00:40:26.780 that I

00:40:27.180 think is

00:40:27.600 fake news.

00:40:29.420 So according

00:40:30.380 to NBC

00:40:30.960 News,

00:40:32.360 there's a

00:40:33.160 top Iranian

00:40:33.960 advisor.

00:40:35.620 Now,

00:40:36.140 so it's

00:40:36.540 not the

00:40:36.920 top leader,

00:40:38.400 it's a

00:40:39.200 top advisor.

00:40:41.380 And the

00:40:41.820 top Iranian

00:40:42.540 advisor,

00:40:43.940 Ali

00:40:44.300 Shamkani,

00:40:45.840 he said

00:40:46.240 that Tehran 0.70

00:40:47.000 is ready

00:40:48.740 to strike

00:40:49.280 a nuclear

00:40:49.800 deal

00:40:50.320 directly with

00:40:52.260 Trump,

00:40:52.660 and the

00:40:53.000 offer would

00:40:53.460 be that

00:40:53.940 if Trump

00:40:54.940 drops the

00:40:55.680 sanctions,

00:40:57.200 Iran will 1.00

00:40:58.060 ditch its

00:40:58.740 high-enriched

00:40:59.540 uranium,

00:41:00.460 cap enrichment

00:41:01.140 at civilian

00:41:01.920 levels,

00:41:03.020 allow inspections,

00:41:04.260 and swear

00:41:04.680 off nukes,

00:41:06.880 meaning

00:41:07.400 everything we

00:41:09.140 wanted about

00:41:09.800 the nuclear

00:41:10.580 program,

00:41:11.200 they're

00:41:12.380 willing to

00:41:12.820 give us.

00:41:14.880 But,

00:41:15.640 there's

00:41:16.340 something left

00:41:16.920 out,

00:41:17.300 isn't there?

00:41:18.440 Because the

00:41:19.000 thing that

00:41:19.400 Trump had

00:41:19.840 recently added

00:41:20.780 to the

00:41:21.280 mix was

00:41:22.620 that they

00:41:23.080 could no

00:41:23.600 longer fund

00:41:24.440 their

00:41:24.760 proxies,

00:41:26.100 you know,

00:41:26.340 like Hamas 0.98

00:41:27.140 and Hezbollah.

00:41:29.720 So I don't

00:41:30.560 see this top

00:41:31.360 Iranian

00:41:31.700 advisor saying

00:41:32.600 anything about

00:41:33.280 that.

00:41:33.880 and I'm

00:41:36.380 not sure

00:41:36.800 that the

00:41:37.240 top Iranian

00:41:37.940 advisor is

00:41:39.020 speaking for

00:41:40.000 the regime.

00:41:41.360 So I'm

00:41:42.280 going to

00:41:42.540 say I

00:41:43.860 think this

00:41:44.340 is fake.

00:41:46.840 Trump has

00:41:47.620 showed some

00:41:48.140 optimism,

00:41:49.240 you know,

00:41:49.500 acted like

00:41:50.180 they're getting

00:41:50.620 closer,

00:41:51.400 and probably

00:41:51.880 because of

00:41:52.400 this guy.

00:41:53.560 But do you

00:41:55.040 trust that?

00:41:56.640 Do you

00:41:57.100 believe that

00:41:57.600 that Iranian 1.00

00:41:58.560 advisor is

00:42:00.240 really going

00:42:00.680 to give

00:42:01.060 up Iran's 0.96

00:42:03.480 nuclear

00:42:03.900 program?

00:42:05.720 And do you

00:42:06.300 think, well,

00:42:07.060 it's not up

00:42:07.580 to him, but

00:42:08.540 do you think

00:42:08.920 he's accurately

00:42:09.860 representing

00:42:12.580 where the

00:42:13.200 regime is at

00:42:14.100 the moment?

00:42:15.260 And that's

00:42:15.920 how we find

00:42:16.500 out.

00:42:16.860 We find out

00:42:17.540 from the

00:42:18.340 Iranian

00:42:18.960 advisor.

00:42:21.060 I don't

00:42:21.780 believe it.

00:42:22.980 I don't

00:42:23.580 think the

00:42:23.960 regime has

00:42:24.700 made that

00:42:25.200 decision yet.

00:42:26.940 And the

00:42:28.540 fact that it

00:42:29.080 leaves out

00:42:29.480 the stuff

00:42:29.880 about the

00:42:30.300 proxies,

00:42:31.480 it's still

00:42:32.820 not there.

00:42:35.460 Meanwhile,

00:42:36.160 I guess

00:42:36.500 Tulsi Gabbard

00:42:37.700 had gotten

00:42:38.220 some insider

00:42:40.100 whistleblower

00:42:41.000 information about

00:42:42.300 two people

00:42:43.860 on the

00:42:44.320 National

00:42:44.680 Intelligence

00:42:45.220 Council who

00:42:47.040 were dangerous

00:42:49.600 and insidious.

00:42:51.000 No,

00:42:52.000 what were

00:42:52.700 they?

00:42:53.560 I guess they

00:42:54.340 were radically

00:42:55.000 opposed to

00:42:55.800 Trump.

00:42:56.800 So,

00:42:57.080 according to

00:42:57.540 whistleblowers,

00:42:58.860 there were

00:42:59.140 people in

00:42:59.780 her organization

00:43:00.660 and the

00:43:01.620 spy part

00:43:02.300 of her

00:43:02.560 organization

00:43:03.160 that were

00:43:04.200 radically

00:43:04.620 opposed to

00:43:05.300 Trump.

00:43:06.240 Now,

00:43:06.800 you don't

00:43:07.400 really want

00:43:08.460 to take a

00:43:08.940 chance of

00:43:09.780 having your

00:43:10.300 top spies

00:43:11.160 radically

00:43:11.720 against your

00:43:12.380 president,

00:43:13.300 so she

00:43:13.960 fired him.

00:43:15.560 And then

00:43:16.080 John Brennan,

00:43:17.300 of all people,

00:43:18.800 got really

00:43:19.820 worked up about

00:43:20.580 it, and he

00:43:20.940 went on TV,

00:43:22.360 said the

00:43:22.720 whole thing

00:43:23.140 makes him

00:43:23.600 livid,

00:43:24.060 and it's

00:43:26.900 dangerous and

00:43:27.760 insidious

00:43:28.280 corruption inside

00:43:29.340 the Trump

00:43:29.860 administration.

00:43:31.560 Now, as

00:43:32.140 others have

00:43:32.700 pointed out,

00:43:34.100 if John

00:43:34.780 Brennan is

00:43:35.460 really mad

00:43:36.060 about these

00:43:36.620 two people

00:43:37.220 getting fired,

00:43:39.940 Tulsi Gabbard

00:43:40.620 made the

00:43:41.020 right decision.

00:43:42.900 He's a

00:43:43.660 little bit

00:43:44.080 too interested

00:43:44.780 in this,

00:43:46.200 and I

00:43:47.620 won't go

00:43:48.000 into it

00:43:48.420 today,

00:43:49.400 but remember

00:43:49.840 I always

00:43:50.300 tell you,

00:43:50.820 if you

00:43:52.020 know what

00:43:52.520 happened,

00:43:53.760 you don't

00:43:54.160 know anything.

00:43:55.600 But if you

00:43:56.400 know who

00:43:57.080 is involved,

00:43:59.040 you might

00:43:59.600 know everything.

00:44:01.860 And

00:44:02.180 Brennan is

00:44:03.160 one of those

00:44:03.780 where if

00:44:04.640 he's involved,

00:44:06.720 there's a

00:44:07.260 whole bunch

00:44:07.720 of assumptions

00:44:08.320 you can make

00:44:09.200 about what

00:44:09.940 that means,

00:44:11.160 and you're

00:44:11.600 probably right.

00:44:13.380 So Brennan

00:44:14.020 would be the

00:44:14.660 most anti-Trump

00:44:16.580 person involved

00:44:18.080 with any kind

00:44:18.840 of CIA

00:44:19.500 background,

00:44:22.080 and now

00:44:22.880 when these

00:44:23.360 two other

00:44:24.000 high-ranking

00:44:24.800 people who

00:44:25.340 were radically

00:44:25.860 opposed to

00:44:26.440 Trump got

00:44:26.960 fired,

00:44:28.080 well,

00:44:28.480 he's really

00:44:29.060 mad.

00:44:31.040 So

00:44:31.680 probably that

00:44:33.220 was a good

00:44:33.860 firing.

00:44:35.400 That's what

00:44:36.040 it feels

00:44:36.480 like.

00:44:38.480 Well,

00:44:39.180 Jonathan

00:44:39.560 Turley

00:44:39.980 tells us

00:44:40.620 that the

00:44:41.820 Supreme

00:44:42.160 Court,

00:44:42.680 I think,

00:44:42.860 today is

00:44:43.420 hearing

00:44:43.780 arguments

00:44:45.460 about

00:44:45.800 universal

00:44:46.540 injunctions

00:44:47.560 by judges,

00:44:49.040 which I

00:44:49.500 believe means

00:44:50.500 the question

00:44:51.800 of can

00:44:52.860 a district

00:44:54.260 federal judge

00:44:56.160 stop something

00:44:56.960 all across

00:44:57.600 the country,

00:44:58.520 which they

00:44:59.480 have been

00:44:59.820 doing.

00:45:00.500 If the

00:45:01.360 Supreme

00:45:01.700 Court decides

00:45:02.560 that these

00:45:03.140 judges can't 0.96

00:45:04.060 do that,

00:45:05.000 and they can

00:45:05.620 only operate

00:45:06.380 within the

00:45:07.240 domain that

00:45:08.540 is their

00:45:09.060 assigned domain,

00:45:11.040 that would

00:45:11.740 be a

00:45:12.280 gigantic

00:45:12.920 victory

00:45:13.440 for Trump,

00:45:14.740 but I

00:45:16.080 don't know

00:45:16.400 if it's

00:45:16.680 going to

00:45:16.900 go his

00:45:17.260 way.

00:45:18.580 It seems

00:45:20.160 at this

00:45:20.540 point that

00:45:21.040 the Supreme

00:45:21.740 Court is

00:45:22.680 politicized.

00:45:25.540 Is that

00:45:26.160 fair to

00:45:26.540 say?

00:45:27.700 Would you

00:45:28.280 agree that

00:45:28.760 the Supreme

00:45:29.420 Court at

00:45:30.440 this point

00:45:31.000 is sort

00:45:32.320 of politicized?

00:45:34.700 So I

00:45:35.340 think the

00:45:35.720 politicized

00:45:37.120 part of

00:45:37.500 it is

00:45:37.820 going to

00:45:38.060 give us

00:45:38.400 some

00:45:38.700 non-predictable

00:45:41.020 results there,

00:45:43.180 so keep

00:45:44.300 an eye on

00:45:44.680 that.

00:45:45.640 When I

00:45:45.940 found out

00:45:46.360 my friend

00:45:46.840 got a

00:45:47.180 great deal

00:45:47.780 on a

00:45:48.140 wool coat

00:45:48.540 from

00:45:48.780 Winners,

00:45:49.380 I started

00:45:50.160 wondering,

00:45:51.060 is every

00:45:51.880 fabulous item

00:45:52.660 I see from

00:45:53.340 Winners?

00:45:54.180 Like that

00:45:54.680 woman over 0.99

00:45:55.160 there with

00:45:55.640 the designer

00:45:56.060 jeans.

00:45:56.900 Are those

00:45:57.480 from Winners?

00:45:58.420 Ooh,

00:45:59.060 are those

00:45:59.380 beautiful gold

00:46:00.000 earrings?

00:46:00.880 Did she pay 0.97

00:46:01.300 full price?

00:46:02.220 Or that

00:46:02.480 leather tote?

00:46:03.240 Or that

00:46:03.500 cashmere

00:46:03.840 sweater?

00:46:04.420 Or those

00:46:04.760 knee-high

00:46:05.080 boots?

00:46:05.920 That dress?

00:46:06.700 That jacket?

00:46:07.360 Those shoes?

00:46:08.400 Is anyone

00:46:09.180 paying full

00:46:09.800 price for

00:46:10.360 anything?

00:46:11.340 Stop

00:46:11.820 wondering.

00:46:12.620 Start

00:46:12.860 winning.

00:46:13.540 Winners find

00:46:14.360 fabulous for

00:46:15.160 less.

00:46:15.820 I guess

00:46:16.660 Trump,

00:46:18.020 when he's

00:46:18.640 over in

00:46:19.020 the Middle

00:46:19.300 East,

00:46:20.320 told Tim

00:46:20.940 Cook,

00:46:21.340 who must

00:46:21.940 have also

00:46:22.380 been there,

00:46:23.680 that he

00:46:26.320 doesn't like

00:46:26.940 Apple building

00:46:29.060 their phones in

00:46:29.740 India.

00:46:30.660 He wants that

00:46:31.280 to come to

00:46:31.720 the U.S.

00:46:32.620 Now,

00:46:33.740 what you

00:46:34.420 might not

00:46:34.820 know is

00:46:35.980 that Tim

00:46:36.460 Cook had

00:46:36.960 said that

00:46:37.480 the phones

00:46:38.460 that would

00:46:38.980 be built

00:46:39.420 in India

00:46:40.080 would be

00:46:41.480 the ones

00:46:41.920 that aren't

00:46:42.420 as hard

00:46:42.980 to build.

00:46:43.640 It doesn't

00:46:43.980 take as

00:46:44.360 much special

00:46:45.140 experience.

00:46:46.560 And he

00:46:46.940 couldn't

00:46:47.500 move all

00:46:48.440 of his

00:46:48.740 high-end

00:46:49.200 phones to

00:46:50.760 India

00:46:51.180 and of

00:46:51.780 China

00:46:52.080 because China

00:46:53.260 has special

00:46:53.940 skills.

00:46:54.540 so they

00:46:55.600 could make

00:46:55.940 the high-end

00:46:56.500 phones.

00:46:57.460 But he

00:46:58.180 was able

00:46:58.760 to move

00:46:59.160 the low-end

00:46:59.760 phones to

00:47:00.340 have some

00:47:00.880 lower

00:47:02.020 technical

00:47:02.700 requirement

00:47:03.460 or something.

00:47:05.120 And so

00:47:06.160 Trump is

00:47:06.680 saying,

00:47:07.140 why are you

00:47:07.540 doing that

00:47:07.940 in India?

00:47:09.540 It does

00:47:10.300 seem to me

00:47:10.860 that we

00:47:11.240 could train

00:47:11.860 Americans to

00:47:12.660 make these

00:47:13.140 phones if

00:47:14.060 you can

00:47:14.340 train the

00:47:14.740 Indians.

00:47:15.740 It might

00:47:16.700 be true

00:47:17.140 that it

00:47:17.420 would take

00:47:17.740 longer or

00:47:18.560 maybe impossible

00:47:19.560 to match

00:47:22.260 China in

00:47:23.280 phone-making

00:47:23.920 for a

00:47:24.780 variety of

00:47:25.200 reasons.

00:47:25.900 That might

00:47:26.280 be harder.

00:47:27.600 But yeah,

00:47:28.220 why aren't

00:47:28.780 we making

00:47:29.220 these phones

00:47:29.760 in America?

00:47:30.700 So Trump

00:47:31.280 is asking

00:47:31.760 the right

00:47:32.120 question.

00:47:34.780 Michael

00:47:35.180 Schellenberger,

00:47:36.060 writing for

00:47:36.700 Public,

00:47:37.360 which is a

00:47:38.020 subscription

00:47:38.520 site,

00:47:40.280 is talking

00:47:41.260 about how

00:47:41.820 the climate

00:47:43.680 activists have

00:47:44.680 gotten quiet

00:47:45.360 lately.

00:47:47.160 Now,

00:47:47.540 imagine

00:47:47.920 you're Greta,

00:47:50.420 you're Greta

00:47:51.200 Thunberg,

00:47:52.340 and from

00:47:53.260 your teenage

00:47:53.880 years you

00:47:54.680 were complaining

00:47:55.320 that the

00:47:56.280 entire world

00:47:56.960 is going to

00:47:57.420 be destroyed

00:47:58.100 by climate

00:47:59.100 change unless

00:48:00.360 we do

00:48:00.900 radically

00:48:01.460 different

00:48:01.860 things.

00:48:02.840 Now,

00:48:03.360 we haven't

00:48:03.780 done those

00:48:04.300 radically

00:48:04.700 different

00:48:05.080 things,

00:48:06.220 but yet

00:48:06.800 Greta seems

00:48:08.080 to have

00:48:08.420 moved on.

00:48:10.660 She's not

00:48:11.460 as worried

00:48:12.200 or doesn't

00:48:13.220 act as

00:48:13.760 worried.

00:48:16.240 And so

00:48:16.740 this is

00:48:17.280 what

00:48:17.640 Schellenberger

00:48:18.860 says.

00:48:20.600 Climate

00:48:21.180 activists are

00:48:22.040 desperate to

00:48:22.800 prevent the

00:48:23.440 apocalypse,

00:48:24.680 they said,

00:48:25.540 but they

00:48:26.240 obviously

00:48:26.700 weren't.

00:48:27.380 Their entire

00:48:27.940 agenda is

00:48:28.640 falling apart,

00:48:29.960 and yet

00:48:30.280 Team Greta

00:48:30.960 has moved

00:48:31.540 on.

00:48:32.820 Victimhood

00:48:33.380 professionals

00:48:34.000 don't actually

00:48:35.000 care about

00:48:35.600 their causes,

00:48:36.860 they just

00:48:37.520 chase them 0.90

00:48:38.120 for narcissistic

00:48:39.320 supply.

00:48:41.320 Do you

00:48:42.060 think that

00:48:42.560 what drives

00:48:43.340 climate change

00:48:44.560 is narcissism,

00:48:46.060 which is

00:48:46.940 getting attention,

00:48:47.800 basically?

00:48:50.280 Maybe.

00:48:52.380 I'm no

00:48:53.180 expert on

00:48:54.020 climate change

00:48:54.760 or narcissism,

00:48:56.040 but if you

00:48:57.060 said,

00:48:57.600 is that

00:48:57.920 completely

00:48:59.140 impossible,

00:49:00.100 I'd say,

00:49:01.240 well,

00:49:02.340 it doesn't

00:49:03.060 seem

00:49:03.380 completely

00:49:03.960 impossible

00:49:04.500 to me.

00:49:05.820 And then

00:49:06.140 when you

00:49:06.420 look at the

00:49:06.880 fact that

00:49:07.320 people who

00:49:07.940 at one

00:49:08.440 point thought

00:49:09.080 it was the

00:49:09.460 most important

00:49:10.140 thing they

00:49:10.600 could be

00:49:10.920 doing,

00:49:12.220 have decided

00:49:12.900 to sort

00:49:13.460 of wander

00:49:13.920 off into

00:49:14.480 other

00:49:14.820 causes,

00:49:15.980 it does

00:49:17.460 make you

00:49:17.900 wonder if

00:49:19.480 they were

00:49:19.860 ever genuinely

00:49:20.960 concerned or

00:49:22.380 if it was

00:49:22.880 all about

00:49:23.300 feeding their 0.55

00:49:23.920 narcissistic

00:49:24.920 supply.

00:49:27.360 So it's a

00:49:27.900 good question.

00:49:31.140 Apparently

00:49:31.780 there are

00:49:32.700 claims that

00:49:33.580 Minneapolis and

00:49:35.240 Minnesota are

00:49:36.900 preparing for

00:49:37.880 the possibility

00:49:38.740 of a

00:49:39.340 Derek Chauvin

00:49:40.400 pardon.

00:49:42.240 Now,

00:49:42.660 a Derek Chauvin

00:49:43.420 pardon if

00:49:44.840 it happened,

00:49:45.540 and there's

00:49:46.000 no indication

00:49:47.060 that it

00:49:47.520 will,

00:49:47.780 by the

00:49:48.020 way.

00:49:49.940 But

00:49:50.500 apparently

00:49:50.840 they think

00:49:52.420 that there's

00:49:52.880 enough of a

00:49:53.540 possibility of

00:49:54.380 it happening

00:49:54.920 because there

00:49:56.260 are important

00:49:56.740 people talking

00:49:57.380 about it,

00:49:57.820 like Ben

00:49:58.280 Shapiro.

00:49:59.700 If he got

00:50:00.540 a federal

00:50:01.100 pardon,

00:50:02.660 it wouldn't

00:50:03.300 get him out

00:50:03.720 of jail

00:50:04.160 because he's

00:50:05.260 got state

00:50:05.960 charges,

00:50:06.940 but it

00:50:07.940 would cause

00:50:08.620 him to be

00:50:09.140 changed from

00:50:09.980 a federal

00:50:10.740 facility to

00:50:12.640 a state

00:50:13.040 facility.

00:50:13.840 So I guess

00:50:14.220 that's probably

00:50:14.680 what most

00:50:15.180 of the

00:50:15.360 planning is.

00:50:16.980 And I'd

00:50:18.500 forgotten,

00:50:19.180 I guess I

00:50:19.780 hadn't made

00:50:20.080 the connection

00:50:20.600 that that is

00:50:21.240 Tim Walsh's

00:50:22.120 state.

00:50:23.380 So Governor

00:50:24.060 Tim Walsh

00:50:24.840 would be the

00:50:25.400 one,

00:50:26.060 if somebody

00:50:27.100 ever were

00:50:27.840 going to

00:50:28.460 pardon him

00:50:29.600 at a state

00:50:30.200 level,

00:50:31.040 it would be

00:50:31.740 Tim Walsh.

00:50:33.020 It makes me

00:50:33.760 wonder if

00:50:35.760 this would be

00:50:36.460 a kind of

00:50:37.780 a topic

00:50:38.280 that some

00:50:39.320 Republican could

00:50:40.220 use to run

00:50:41.120 in that

00:50:41.660 very blue

00:50:43.360 area to

00:50:44.540 maybe break

00:50:45.200 through.

00:50:46.360 You know,

00:50:46.660 the free

00:50:47.100 Derek Chauvin?

00:50:48.940 I don't know.

00:50:49.700 Probably not.

00:50:51.240 It seems like

00:50:52.060 it's so blue

00:50:53.140 that nothing

00:50:53.600 would ever

00:50:53.980 change.

00:50:54.860 So there's

00:50:55.440 not much

00:50:55.840 chance that

00:50:56.360 Derek Chauvin

00:50:57.000 would get

00:50:57.560 out,

00:50:58.760 but maybe.

00:51:01.340 I'm going

00:51:01.880 to bet

00:51:02.200 against it.

00:51:03.300 I don't

00:51:03.760 think Trump

00:51:04.320 is going to

00:51:04.820 pardon him

00:51:05.400 because first

00:51:06.840 of all,

00:51:07.100 it wouldn't

00:51:07.380 let him

00:51:07.640 out of

00:51:07.900 jail and

00:51:09.400 it would

00:51:10.280 just be

00:51:10.840 negative

00:51:11.300 publicity.

00:51:13.020 But on

00:51:13.660 the other

00:51:13.940 hand,

00:51:14.560 Trump is

00:51:16.540 a little

00:51:16.860 bit

00:51:17.100 unpredictable

00:51:17.760 and he

00:51:19.360 likes to

00:51:19.860 throw some

00:51:20.340 red meat

00:51:20.800 to the

00:51:21.140 press so

00:51:22.180 they can

00:51:22.500 spend all

00:51:23.040 their time

00:51:23.560 spinning about

00:51:24.600 something that

00:51:25.340 doesn't make

00:51:25.900 a difference

00:51:26.440 because he's

00:51:27.040 not going

00:51:27.380 to get out

00:51:27.700 of jail and

00:51:29.240 then he can

00:51:29.960 work on

00:51:30.400 important things

00:51:31.220 while they're

00:51:32.440 spinning on

00:51:33.360 something that

00:51:33.880 doesn't make

00:51:34.320 any difference.

00:51:35.400 Well,

00:51:37.160 the Wall

00:51:37.400 Street Journal

00:51:37.980 separately

00:51:38.780 had reported

00:51:40.820 that the

00:51:41.480 United Health

00:51:42.440 Company,

00:51:43.500 you've heard

00:51:43.980 of them,

00:51:44.960 big healthcare

00:51:46.140 insurance company,

00:51:47.640 were under

00:51:48.520 Department of

00:51:49.680 Justice

00:51:50.100 investigation,

00:51:51.860 DOG

00:51:52.300 investigation,

00:51:53.560 which would

00:51:54.380 make you

00:51:54.760 think,

00:51:55.120 hmm,

00:51:55.640 they're in

00:51:56.160 trouble.

00:51:57.260 But apparently

00:51:58.080 after a day

00:51:59.300 or so of

00:51:59.880 this being

00:52:00.380 a headline,

00:52:01.800 United Health

00:52:02.440 said,

00:52:02.900 we're not

00:52:03.600 being notified

00:52:04.260 by the

00:52:04.840 Department

00:52:05.360 of Justice

00:52:05.860 that anybody

00:52:06.500 is investigating

00:52:07.620 us.

00:52:09.840 And I

00:52:10.040 think that

00:52:11.540 they would

00:52:11.820 be notified,

00:52:13.780 right?

00:52:14.720 Wouldn't you

00:52:15.180 expect that

00:52:16.000 United Health

00:52:16.820 would be

00:52:17.280 fully aware?

00:52:22.080 Don't you

00:52:22.840 think that

00:52:23.280 they would

00:52:24.100 be aware

00:52:24.580 if the

00:52:25.080 DOJ was

00:52:25.880 investigating?

00:52:27.060 And they

00:52:27.620 say this

00:52:28.520 was reported

00:52:29.240 without official

00:52:30.240 attribution,

00:52:31.800 and the

00:52:32.180 Wall Street

00:52:32.540 Journal's

00:52:32.980 reporting is

00:52:33.660 deeply

00:52:34.020 irresponsible.

00:52:35.660 So it

00:52:36.340 might not

00:52:36.900 even be

00:52:37.360 true.

00:52:38.600 It might

00:52:38.920 be fake

00:52:39.380 news.

00:52:40.140 I don't

00:52:40.360 know.

00:52:42.360 In other

00:52:42.720 news,

00:52:43.220 the U.S.

00:52:43.740 Army is

00:52:44.260 relooking

00:52:45.340 at their

00:52:45.860 tank

00:52:46.880 strategy,

00:52:47.580 because in

00:52:49.160 the world

00:52:49.600 of missiles

00:52:50.540 and drones, 0.93

00:52:51.600 a tank

00:52:52.060 doesn't last

00:52:52.780 too long.

00:52:54.280 So the

00:52:54.840 Defense Post

00:52:55.560 is talking

00:52:56.020 about this,

00:52:57.080 and I was

00:52:57.700 thinking to

00:52:58.120 myself,

00:52:58.540 if you

00:53:00.640 joined the

00:53:01.140 military,

00:53:02.380 would you

00:53:03.640 ever want

00:53:04.480 to volunteer

00:53:04.960 to be in

00:53:05.520 the tank

00:53:06.160 corps?

00:53:07.900 I mean,

00:53:08.480 the tank

00:53:08.900 is like

00:53:09.320 being in

00:53:09.740 your own

00:53:10.020 little metal

00:53:10.820 coffin.

00:53:12.340 How long

00:53:13.000 is a tank

00:53:13.680 going to

00:53:14.140 last in

00:53:15.200 any kind

00:53:15.740 of modern

00:53:16.220 warfare?

00:53:17.820 A tank

00:53:18.600 is not

00:53:19.000 going to

00:53:19.240 last.

00:53:20.360 It's

00:53:20.720 going to

00:53:20.920 be

00:53:21.080 droned

00:53:21.520 so fast.

00:53:23.280 So I

00:53:24.120 don't know

00:53:24.340 how many

00:53:24.640 tanks we

00:53:25.160 need.

00:53:25.520 in other

00:53:27.960 news,

00:53:29.340 modern

00:53:29.720 modernity

00:53:31.100 is reporting

00:53:32.200 that some

00:53:33.640 rogue

00:53:34.220 communication

00:53:35.180 devices have

00:53:36.140 been found

00:53:36.600 hidden in

00:53:37.180 Chinese solar

00:53:38.000 panels.

00:53:40.200 Now,

00:53:40.900 I don't

00:53:41.100 know if

00:53:41.320 it's not

00:53:42.080 just solar

00:53:42.640 panels,

00:53:43.380 it's in

00:53:43.700 the solar

00:53:44.720 panel

00:53:45.180 inverters,

00:53:46.100 batteries,

00:53:47.520 and chargers,

00:53:48.740 and heat 0.97

00:53:49.180 pumps, 0.96

00:53:49.660 and everything

00:53:49.940 else.

00:53:50.620 So I

00:53:51.160 don't know

00:53:51.440 how many

00:53:51.820 things China

00:53:53.140 is putting

00:53:53.600 a communication

00:53:55.040 device in,

00:53:56.080 but the

00:53:56.760 worry is

00:53:57.920 that they're

00:53:58.200 doing so

00:53:58.680 they can

00:53:59.040 turn it

00:53:59.500 off.

00:54:01.780 It's not

00:54:02.380 so much

00:54:02.780 that the

00:54:03.180 communication

00:54:03.780 device is

00:54:04.400 telling China

00:54:05.200 something,

00:54:06.260 but rather

00:54:07.380 if China

00:54:07.940 wants to

00:54:08.440 tell the

00:54:08.800 device

00:54:09.180 something,

00:54:09.840 as in

00:54:10.320 turn off,

00:54:12.480 that might

00:54:13.140 be why

00:54:13.500 they exist.

00:54:14.820 I don't

00:54:15.480 know about

00:54:15.920 that,

00:54:17.040 but it's

00:54:17.760 possible.

00:54:22.020 All

00:54:22.300 right.

00:54:22.520 Anheuser-Busch

00:54:25.420 says they're

00:54:26.840 putting $300

00:54:27.540 million into

00:54:28.620 domestic

00:54:30.220 U.S.

00:54:31.500 manufacturing,

00:54:32.420 so that's

00:54:33.220 good.

00:54:34.440 I like

00:54:35.340 the fact

00:54:35.900 that companies

00:54:36.780 need to

00:54:37.320 announce it

00:54:37.940 now.

00:54:39.300 So it

00:54:40.060 might be

00:54:40.380 that they

00:54:40.720 were just

00:54:41.020 going to

00:54:41.260 do it

00:54:41.520 anyway.

00:54:42.120 It might

00:54:42.520 have been

00:54:42.740 their

00:54:42.940 ordinary

00:54:43.480 expense,

00:54:45.400 but I

00:54:46.720 love the

00:54:47.260 fact that

00:54:47.800 companies

00:54:48.280 are fully

00:54:49.760 aware that

00:54:50.440 the louder

00:54:51.120 they are

00:54:51.720 about their

00:54:52.280 American

00:54:52.880 domestic

00:54:53.440 expense,

00:54:54.500 the better

00:54:55.220 it will

00:54:55.520 be for

00:54:55.880 them.

00:54:57.000 That is

00:54:57.520 a Trumpism.

00:54:59.260 Trump has

00:54:59.920 caused

00:55:00.360 companies to

00:55:01.880 need to

00:55:02.380 compete to

00:55:04.140 show how

00:55:04.760 patriotic,

00:55:05.320 well, not

00:55:05.920 patriotic in

00:55:06.640 this case,

00:55:07.400 but how

00:55:07.860 much emphasis

00:55:08.880 they're going

00:55:09.340 to put in

00:55:09.880 American

00:55:10.540 companies.

00:55:11.660 So I like

00:55:12.200 that, even

00:55:12.960 Anheuser-Busch.

00:55:15.900 According to

00:55:16.740 MIT Technical

00:55:17.780 Review,

00:55:18.260 Montana

00:55:20.580 just passed

00:55:21.280 a law

00:55:21.680 to create

00:55:22.260 a hub

00:55:22.760 for

00:55:23.020 experimental

00:55:23.740 medical

00:55:24.240 treatments.

00:55:25.580 So you

00:55:26.320 would be

00:55:26.600 able to

00:55:26.920 get some

00:55:27.500 meds in

00:55:28.960 this little

00:55:29.480 hub in

00:55:30.160 Montana

00:55:30.880 that you

00:55:31.980 would not

00:55:32.440 be legally

00:55:33.120 able to

00:55:33.740 take anywhere

00:55:34.280 else.

00:55:34.980 Now these

00:55:35.340 would be

00:55:35.740 meds that

00:55:37.320 had at

00:55:37.780 least gone

00:55:38.260 through safety

00:55:39.040 training or

00:55:40.100 safety tests.

00:55:41.680 Now safety

00:55:42.280 tests don't

00:55:43.920 tell you that

00:55:44.400 they work,

00:55:45.020 but if

00:55:46.940 you've got

00:55:47.220 no other

00:55:47.680 options and

00:55:49.300 there's some

00:55:49.900 indication it

00:55:50.640 works and

00:55:52.560 they've already

00:55:53.020 tested it and

00:55:53.800 it's relatively

00:55:54.460 safe compared

00:55:55.340 to other

00:55:55.700 things,

00:55:57.020 then this

00:55:58.940 might be

00:55:59.260 something people

00:55:59.860 like so

00:56:01.240 that you'd

00:56:01.840 have the

00:56:02.100 right to

00:56:02.520 try.

00:56:03.720 So it

00:56:04.100 might be a

00:56:04.460 lot of

00:56:04.660 people moving

00:56:05.180 to Montana

00:56:05.860 just to see

00:56:06.560 if they can

00:56:06.960 get some

00:56:07.460 experimental

00:56:08.740 drugs to

00:56:09.480 stay alive.

00:56:12.620 Do you

00:56:13.160 remember that

00:56:13.760 $20,000

00:56:15.560 electric truck

00:56:16.900 called the

00:56:17.680 Slate?

00:56:19.200 And I

00:56:20.280 kind of

00:56:20.840 raved about

00:56:21.400 it because

00:56:21.840 I just

00:56:22.400 liked how

00:56:22.840 it looked.

00:56:24.360 It just

00:56:24.980 called to

00:56:26.460 me and I

00:56:27.260 don't know

00:56:27.540 how they

00:56:27.860 did that.

00:56:29.600 Part of it

00:56:30.320 is because

00:56:30.680 you could

00:56:31.160 build the

00:56:32.760 truck to

00:56:33.160 be anything

00:56:33.560 you want.

00:56:34.240 You could

00:56:34.560 add a

00:56:35.580 sound system

00:56:36.260 or not.

00:56:37.000 You could

00:56:37.340 add a

00:56:38.200 backseat

00:56:38.660 or not.

00:56:39.740 So I

00:56:40.180 liked all

00:56:40.600 of that and

00:56:41.240 Jeff Bezos

00:56:41.840 was one of

00:56:42.700 the backers

00:56:43.380 so I

00:56:43.840 thought

00:56:44.020 it could

00:56:44.820 be a

00:56:45.100 serious

00:56:45.420 company.

00:56:46.360 But they

00:56:47.000 opened it

00:56:47.520 up for

00:56:48.140 early orders

00:56:50.840 and they've

00:56:52.380 got 100,000

00:56:53.620 orders.

00:56:55.120 100,000.

00:56:56.660 So 100,000

00:56:58.300 people are

00:56:59.140 willing to

00:56:59.660 wait two

00:57:00.440 years or

00:57:01.020 more to

00:57:02.320 get this

00:57:02.760 electric truck.

00:57:05.300 That's pretty

00:57:06.180 impressive.

00:57:07.500 100,000.

00:57:08.620 So I

00:57:09.980 guess I

00:57:10.300 wasn't the

00:57:10.740 only one

00:57:11.140 who thought

00:57:11.480 it had

00:57:11.820 some little

00:57:15.600 extra charisma

00:57:16.860 to it.

00:57:18.000 There was

00:57:18.360 just something

00:57:18.820 about that

00:57:19.340 little truck

00:57:20.040 that made me

00:57:21.180 want it and

00:57:22.260 I can't

00:57:22.680 explain it.

00:57:24.500 All right,

00:57:25.000 ladies and 0.98

00:57:25.820 gentlemen,

00:57:27.180 that's all I

00:57:27.800 got for

00:57:28.120 today.

00:57:29.700 I'm going

00:57:30.280 to talk to

00:57:30.780 the locals

00:57:31.860 people privately.

00:57:34.000 Yeah,

00:57:34.340 and it's only a

00:57:34.860 $50 deposit so

00:57:36.160 they made it

00:57:37.100 easy to do

00:57:37.820 that.

00:57:38.920 If it had

00:57:39.360 been a

00:57:39.700 bigger deposit

00:57:40.380 I suppose

00:57:40.840 it would be

00:57:41.140 a whole

00:57:41.780 different

00:57:42.100 situation.

00:57:43.400 All right,

00:57:44.320 if you're on

00:57:45.020 Rumble or

00:57:45.540 YouTube or

00:57:46.600 X, thanks

00:57:47.420 for joining

00:57:47.960 and I'll be

00:57:48.600 back tomorrow

00:57:49.320 same time

00:57:49.880 same place.

00:57:51.260 But if

00:57:52.880 you're on

00:57:53.200 locals, I'm

00:57:53.900 going to go

00:57:54.240 private with

00:57:54.980 you.

00:58:07.820 I'll be

00:58:12.240 going first.
