00:00:16.800
Hey, everybody. It's time for Coffee with Scott Adams, the best part of the day.
00:00:22.560
I think you'd agree. It's pretty obvious, really.
00:00:30.000
Jack, good to see you. Come on in here. It's time for the simultaneous sip, and all you need is a
00:00:37.940
cup or a mug or a glass or a tank or a chalice or a stein, a canteen jugger, a flask, a vessel of any kind.
00:00:43.900
Fill it with your favorite liquid. I like coffee. And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure of
00:00:49.880
the dopamine hit of the day, the thing that makes everything, including the Wuhan virus, better.
00:00:55.420
It's called the simultaneous sip. It happens now. Go.
00:01:07.980
So as I often do, I was watching myself in replay. So I play back my periscopes now and then just to
00:01:16.900
see what it looks like and see if I can make it better. And I got to tell you, one of the
00:01:23.540
one of the systems you should implement in your life, and it really, really helps you understand
00:01:30.580
yourself, is making a real concerted effort to monitor your personality after certain conditions
00:01:41.120
have changed. So for example, monitor your personality after you've had a good night's sleep
00:01:46.700
sleep, and then compare it to a bad night's sleep. You're going to see a difference. Hungry versus
00:01:52.300
not hungry. And as you all know, I've mentioned it, I'm coming off of prednisone. So I had some
00:01:59.980
prednisone for some sinus stuff. And it completely changes my personality. And so I note it before I
00:02:07.820
take it so that I can watch myself like an observer, which is really hard. Because when it's you,
00:02:14.140
you don't really feel like you're observing yourself, you're just you. But you can do it if
00:02:19.560
you practice. So I've been watching myself sort of objectively to see if I turned into a different
00:02:25.620
personality on prednisone. And when I watched myself on the playback, I really did. So I'm on the tail
00:02:34.540
end of it now, so it should be normalizing. But as I was watching myself, I thought, I don't think I'd
00:02:41.080
watch that guy. He seems kind of intense and angry and a little belligerent. So my judgment of myself
00:02:51.600
is that I was a little belligerent yesterday and a little bit unkind. I was definitely hard on the
00:02:58.080
president. I doubt I've ever been harder on Trump than I have this week. I think you'd probably agree.
00:03:04.840
But let's talk about all that stuff. Anyway, so it's a good, it's just a good technique to learn to
00:03:12.320
watch yourself objectively and say, hey, is that my normal personality? Is that or is that because of
00:03:17.900
the beds I'm on or I didn't get enough sleep or something? All right, there's a whole bunch of
00:03:22.760
stuff happening. Number one, I understand that the Chinese government really, really, really hates it.
00:03:31.260
When you call this any kind of a Chinese flu or the Wuhan virus. Now, once I learned that the Chinese
00:03:40.960
government really hates it, when you call the virus that, I decided that from now on, I'll only call
00:03:47.960
it the Wuhan virus. Now, I don't love calling it any kind of a Chinese virus because Chinese refers to,
00:03:57.380
you know, variously the country, the people, etc. And that's a little close to, to making a, you know,
00:04:06.140
an accidental racist sounding statement. But Wuhan is literally the name of government gives
00:04:13.600
a piece of real estate. So that to me feels like more government. And it's the government of China
00:04:20.820
China that I hate with a passion. The people are quite awesome. In fact, let me thank the people
00:04:27.580
of China right now. The, the people of China, as opposed to the government, who sacrificed a lot
00:04:34.340
to slow this virus down. And you guys did a great job for the, for the world. Certainly the people
00:04:43.000
working on containing it in China were not the people responsible for releasing it, if anybody is
00:04:48.960
responsible. Who knows where it came from. But the Chinese people, a plus plus plus. And a big thank
00:04:58.020
you for the sacrifice that you guys did. Because I know you were fighting for your own lives and for
00:05:04.400
your families and for your own country. But it helped the world as well. So thanks. And it looks
00:05:09.920
like things are maybe slowing down over there. So China is really getting a handle on it.
00:05:13.920
In these times of national, not national, global crisis, it's good to take stock of the more
00:05:23.280
sober-minded among us. So leadership, leadership sort of bubbles up where you don't expect it.
00:05:32.500
And you see this in a whole bunch of different ways. People are just sort of stepping up and taking
00:05:37.920
a position on the Wuhan virus. Taking a position, meaning they're saying, what can I uniquely do
00:05:46.420
that would help? What's the thing that I can do that's my skill set? And you see me doing it as best
00:05:53.300
I can. I was just noticing on Twitter that famous, I never know what to call him because he's so many
00:06:02.400
things. But among others, Naval Ravikant is a famous investor and advisor of startups and things like
00:06:10.660
that. Now, he probably wouldn't call himself that. But within his talent stack, there's this tremendous
00:06:17.960
range of investment, business understanding. And so he tweets, I think it was last night,
00:06:25.660
and he said, current market panic feels overblown. Now, when somebody like Naval says that, it means
00:06:33.500
more, right? So if the smartest, most experienced people are saying the market looks overblown,
00:06:40.920
they're saying it for a reason. They're saying it for a reason, because the economy is a psychology
00:06:46.240
machine. And the people who understand that and have important positions, you know, in the world where
00:06:52.860
they can say, look, I'm experienced. Listen to me on this topic. That's what Naval's saying.
00:06:59.200
And he's saying that the current market panic feels overblown. This is a short-term shock.
00:07:04.740
Asian countries show social distancing, assisted by seasonality in the Wuhan flu, that's my word,
00:07:12.380
works. Headlines will worsen as mass testing begins. So in other words, it's going to look worse
00:07:20.080
just because we're discovering more of it as we get better at testing. And he says,
00:07:24.500
take it seriously for yourself, wear masks for others, don't panic, trade. He says, I don't.
00:07:30.340
So don't do panic trading. So you know that old saying that I'm not a big fan of it, but you know,
00:07:37.420
there's nothing to fear but fear itself, whichever president said that, Roselle. And
00:07:43.480
this is one of those cases where that's purely true. The only thing that would destroy the,
00:07:51.260
you know, the financial markets is bad thinking. So if we, if we just decide to be too afraid,
00:08:00.380
well, we'll all go, you know, basically run off a cliff together. But it takes people like
00:08:06.920
Naval, and I hope that my voice adds to this a little bit to say, this is temporary because it
00:08:15.880
is. I would say the one thing that you could bet on with the greatest certainty of anything you've
00:08:22.640
ever bet on is that it's temporary. Most things are. And so we'll be fine. Just keep your psychology
00:08:31.340
strong. This is not the time to panic sell. And I find that a helpful message. So when people,
00:08:39.660
when people of that station tell you to relax, that means something. And that's helpful.
00:08:49.000
So there was a apparently a fascinating interaction last night on CNN, where Don Lemon was interviewing
00:08:56.340
John Kasich. Now Kasich, of course, is no fan of President Trump, but he is a moderate Republican.
00:09:03.400
And Lemon was trying to get John Kasich to say bad things about Trump's national address last night
00:09:11.420
about the Wuhan virus. And Kasich wouldn't do it. Kasich basically said, yeah, it was pretty good.
00:09:19.860
Yeah, it was 98% okay. Yeah, he had to clarify a few things. Big deal. He was reading it for a
00:09:25.160
teleprompter. So obviously, it was prepared and all the right people saw it and everything.
00:09:30.100
And I guess Don Lemon was flipping out because he couldn't get Kasich to say something bad about
00:09:35.520
Trump in a crisis. Now, I don't think I've ever liked John Kasich better than last night.
00:09:44.000
So much so that I thought if he had, you know, if he had re-registered as a Democrat,
00:09:48.840
Democrat, and just ran as a Democrat, I mean, he'd have a shot. Because he's a completely reasonable,
00:09:57.260
level-minded guy who's never been crazy. And I appreciated him a lot last night, just sticking up
00:10:04.600
for the fact that the president's address. And I'll give my own criticism, so I'm not agreeing with
00:10:12.000
Kasich's view. I just appreciate the independence of it. The fact that he wasn't going to take a side
00:10:17.940
during a crisis when he so easily could have, you know, criticized the president. Because he's
00:10:25.400
criticized the president a lot. It's not like Kasich doesn't know how to criticize the president. He
00:10:31.080
knows how. But he chose, during this panic, not to nitpick on something that wasn't worth
00:10:36.640
nitpicking on something. Good job, John Kasich. Appreciate the leadership. Here's a question for
00:10:44.980
you. None of this is going to be in any particular good order today. But why don't we know more about
00:10:51.900
ventilators? Here's my question for the news media. And I would actually like you, the news media,
00:11:01.120
to send a reporter somewhere. You know, send somebody out and get a report on this. Who's making our
00:11:06.580
ventilators? And how quickly are we ramping up? Why is that not the biggest story? Because it's
00:11:13.780
the most crucial piece of equipment, the thing that will be most in demand if things crest the way
00:11:19.720
we think they will. But who makes them? Do we even make them in the United States? Are they hard to
00:11:25.540
make? If we wanted to suddenly go from, you know, making $100,000 a week to $10,000 a week, could we do it?
00:11:33.620
I don't know. So, you know, in World War II, one of the most amazing things was that the United States
00:11:42.440
industry just sort of immediately transitioned into making tanks and war materials, etc.,
00:11:49.940
and did it pretty quickly. I don't know what quickly means in that context, but it was quick.
00:11:54.800
So here's a question I ask you. How close are we in terms of the totality of technology from robots to
00:12:05.540
3D printers to you name it? How close are we to spinning up a factory to make a product that's,
00:12:15.000
let's say, robot run starting from scratch? Like how quickly could we build, even if it's a temporary
00:12:22.280
facility? You know, you saw China build these entire hospitals, temporary hospitals, but they
00:12:27.900
built them in like a week. What would it take for the United States with all of its resources in an
00:12:36.040
emergency to spin up a robot manufacturing facility for ventilators? Because, you know, you could skip a lot
00:12:44.880
of safety stuff. You know, it's a temporary building. It's an emergency. You just wave all the red tape out
00:12:52.980
of the way. So if you got rid of all the red tape, what could the best engineers with unlimited resources
00:12:59.700
of the federal government, highest priority working day and night, how fast could we do it? And why don't
00:13:06.100
we have, because somebody's doing it right now, right? I mean, somebody is making more ventilators,
00:13:11.360
I think, right? Nobody's making new ventilators. I believe they are. And how about if you wanted
00:13:19.540
people to help? Suppose it's an assembly line situation. Do you think you could find enough
00:13:26.320
people to work on the assembly line temporarily to make these ventilators? Yeah, of course. Unlimited labor.
00:13:32.980
You want labor to assemble ventilators? You got it. I'll do it. I'll volunteer tomorrow. I'll make you some
00:13:42.560
ventilators. It's an emergency. Of course, you have all the labor you want. So you have all the money, all the
00:13:47.180
labor, all the knowledge. How fast could we put them together? And why isn't the news showing us videos of the
00:13:53.080
people who are actually doing that? I have a real curiosity about that, because it seems like the main, there
00:13:58.980
might not be anything that's more important in the end. That's what's going to keep people alive, I
00:14:03.460
think. All right. I was pretty disgusted watching the news last night. I don't know if this is the
00:14:15.920
prednisone still talking. So here's one of those points where I have to catch myself, and I say,
00:14:22.900
all right, it's the next thing that comes out of my mouth, because I know what it is, you don't.
00:14:26.480
It's the next thing that comes out of my mouth. Is that my normal personality? I don't really know.
00:14:33.680
It doesn't feel like it. It feels a little more aggressive than normally I would be.
00:14:42.560
I've been trying to figure out why there's so much loser think on social media, more than usual,
00:14:50.020
and specifically around the Wuhan virus. At first I thought to myself, oh, it's just because I'm
00:14:56.680
noticing it more, because there's a new topic for people to be dumb about. So I'm just tuned to it,
00:15:02.760
so I'm just noticing it more. But there was a similarity to it that I kept saying to myself,
00:15:09.700
why is there this weird similarity to the things people are saying that don't make sense? And
00:15:17.060
unfortunately, I found the source. I found the mothership. And here's what I'm talking about.
00:15:23.880
I keep seeing people comparing the Wuhan virus to regular flu death rates. And people will say,
00:15:36.700
well, a regular flu death rate is tens of thousands a year. The Wuhan virus has only killed a few
00:15:43.340
relative to that. There you go. And every time somebody does that, I just say to myself,
00:15:50.700
stop it. Stop it. Stop it. The stupidity is drowning me. Stop comparing the wrong things.
00:15:59.500
Who compares a problem which by its nature is going to be logarithmically, exponentially increasing,
00:16:09.500
but it's just starting? Who compares that to something that's already run its full course?
00:16:15.200
Well, not smart people. Smart people do not compare a regular virus that's already done a full year of
00:16:23.040
killing people to something that just started. Because wouldn't you expect the regular flu would
00:16:28.980
be a big number? Because it's already done. And the new one is just starting. Who compares those?
00:16:35.440
Who is so fucking dumb to say that in public over and over again, besides the president of the
00:16:41.360
United States? Sorry. Sorry. Sorry. The president did the same thing. I'm not going to give him a pass
00:16:47.240
on that. And then I turned on TV last night to Fox News. And I'm watching Sean Hannity say that.
00:16:55.100
And I thought to myself, well, Sean, you're a smart guy. You know, it's good context to say the regular
00:17:02.080
flu kills this many. I think that's good to know. And I'm happy that people are reporting that.
00:17:08.860
But then he says, and the Wuhan flu is, you know, only killed this many. And then I'm waiting for
00:17:15.060
Sean to say, but it's just starting. So you shouldn't compare something just starting to
00:17:22.880
something that's already done. So I'm waiting for Sean to say that. And then he changes the topic.
00:17:29.240
He keeps talking. And I'm like, oh, okay, well, maybe he'll circle back to it. And then he doesn't.
00:17:37.600
He doesn't. And I'm thinking, that's where this shit is coming from. That's where it's coming from.
00:17:45.180
It's coming from Fox News. I read an article last night. Who was it? Was it Margaret Sullivan or
00:17:52.220
something? Who said that it would save lives if Rupert Murdoch would bear down on Fox News and tell
00:18:00.700
him to stop saying basically that. And when I read that, I thought, come on, you know, this is just
00:18:08.160
inside baseball. And, you know, it's not going to save lives if Fox News reports things differently.
00:18:15.980
And then I watched Sean Hannity show. And I thought, no, I agree with that. I agree with
00:18:23.460
that. If Rupert Murdoch wants to be responsible during this crisis, he should talk to Sean Hannity
00:18:30.040
and tell him to stop doing that. He should actually just say, look, I'm the boss. It's an emergency.
00:18:37.460
Normally, I don't bother you. You know, you do your show. That's our deal. It's not my opinion
00:18:42.520
that's your show. It's your opinion, Sean Hannity. But stop comparing it to the flu and
00:18:47.440
then stopping. It's fine to compare it to the normal flu and say, but people, we're just
00:18:54.420
starting. So, you know, this new one is 10 times more dangerous. We think it could be
00:18:59.580
far bigger than a regular flu. That would be great. But, Sean Hannity, I think you need
00:19:09.700
to raise your game a little bit for the greater good. I'm not going to put this, because it's
00:19:16.320
an emergency, I don't like to be hard on people. I'd rather that I would coerce people to be
00:19:22.800
on the same side. So, Sean Hannity, and by the way, I'm a huge admirer of Sean Hannity's
00:19:30.040
skill stack. I think I've talked about that before. If you look at the number of skills that
00:19:34.880
Sean Hannity puts together to do what he does, it's jaw-dropping. I mean, he has a lot
00:19:41.540
of skills that fit together really well. But I don't think one of them is economics,
00:19:47.300
as far as I know. I don't think it is. And economists and scientists are better at comparing
00:19:54.080
things. And I think because it's a national emergency and people do need to take this
00:19:58.180
seriously. I think that, Sean Hannity, I would like to ask you directly to, you can still
00:20:04.540
make, obviously, it's still helpful to say that normal flu kills a lot of people. But
00:20:09.260
put it in context. Please. Please. I mean, it's an emergency. We need to have the best information
00:20:16.340
out there we can. All right. So, here's some other, we'll talk about the President's address
00:20:22.660
in a minute. Well, actually, let me talk about it now. So, it's a political season, so it's
00:20:33.220
impossible to separate the politics from any of this stuff, even though we should. Here
00:20:37.680
was my take on the President's address. First of all, it was somber but low energy. I don't
00:20:45.440
know. I heard a lot of people say they loved it because it was the right tone. It's very
00:20:51.800
weird to watch Trump be low energy and read off a teleprompter because you can tell he's
00:20:58.460
not in his comfort zone. My take on it was it was fine in terms of the presentation. It
00:21:05.800
was fine. It wasn't great, and he's capable of being great. But fine was all we needed.
00:21:12.160
We just needed to hear from the President. We needed to feel like he's in charge, taking
00:21:18.140
this seriously. He had all those notes. So, I would say there was, I didn't see anything
00:21:23.420
I would criticize in it, but it wasn't a home run or anything. It just was a, just a good
00:21:29.260
solid presidential speech. But interestingly, he decided to close traffic to Europe, air traffic.
00:21:36.880
Now, here's the way I think you should look at Trump's performance. Because none of us
00:21:47.420
are really good at evaluating presidents. We're not. We think we are. We all think we're geniuses
00:21:54.320
at evaluating presidents, and I'm no different. But we're not good at it, and it's good to keep
00:22:00.640
that in mind. One of the reasons that we're not good at it is we forget that the valid comparison
00:22:05.800
would be this president in this situation, versus a different president, but the same
00:22:11.300
situation. And that can't be evaluated. Because there is no way to evaluate a different president
00:22:17.280
in this same situation. It can't be done. So all you know is how one person did it, and
00:22:22.480
then you imagine how it could have been done differently, and you end up comparing your imagination
00:22:28.160
of how it could have been done differently to what was actually done. And that's not a valid
00:22:32.260
comparison. Because your imagination is not some kind of standard to which all things can
00:22:36.860
be compared. That said, here's a useful way to break out your opinion. There aren't that
00:22:46.920
many parts of this emergency that the president actually does. The president is one of the least
00:22:53.500
important people in the emergency. I know that's weird, but he's actually bordering on irrelevant.
00:22:59.540
And when I say that, that assumes he does the right things. The small things he does are
00:23:05.820
right. So he needs to focus the country's attention. Done. I'd say 100% effective. He needed to do
00:23:13.800
the things that only a president can do, such as closing the traffic from China and now closing
00:23:19.900
it from Europe. I would say that he did those aggressively and decisively. And I give him
00:23:26.540
N.A. for full grades for doing the things the president can do, specifically just the president's
00:23:34.180
job. Then he asked for $2.5 billion. Congress said it's going to be closer to $8.5. He said,
00:23:40.960
that's fine, I'll take it. You could argue he should have asked for the $8.5 first. But I don't take...
00:23:48.820
That's just small ball. In the real world, if you've ever done anything important in the real world,
00:23:55.280
a situation like this is not aim, fire, hit the target. That's not the world we're in.
00:24:02.960
We're in the world of aiming wildly in the general direction because it's an emergency.
00:24:08.140
You shoot, you see how far off you were, you adjust. So we're in... The world we're in is a
00:24:14.680
take a shot, adjust, take a shot, adjust, adjust, adjust, adjust. It's an adjustment world. It's not
00:24:21.820
it's not a laser focused hit the target world. And so when I see the president asked for $2.5 billion,
00:24:28.620
but then Congress says, no, we're smarter, it's $8.5 billion, $9.5, whatever it is, you know,
00:24:34.180
let's adjust. Happened quickly, happened without any friction, right? There was no friction to the
00:24:40.980
adjustment. So as long as you're seeing people take a shot and then adjust quickly, that's everything
00:24:46.780
you can hope for. That's your government working exactly the way you want it to. Adjust, adjust,
00:24:55.420
adjust. So the things that the president can do, I think he nailed. Like the decisions the president
00:25:03.120
does. He put the money there, he got the right person, gave it the right attention, did the
00:25:07.480
presidential address, close the airports early. Those are all the things he can do.
00:25:13.000
Beyond that, his messaging, I thought was poor, but also irrelevant. Because as long as he's willing
00:25:21.560
to say, blah, blah, blah, here's what I think. Now let's listen to my expert. And I think it's entirely
00:25:28.820
obvious that Dr. Fauci, correct me if I'm wrong, but it seems to me that the experts that the president
00:25:38.480
has chosen are strong personalities who understand the nature of the threat. I believe Dr. Fauci and
00:25:45.980
probably the others would stand right next to the president in public and contradict him. Because
00:25:52.720
they have. Right? Now, would a plain political person contradict the president if they were on
00:26:00.340
the same party while standing in front of him in public? Well, not so readily. You know, a lot less
00:26:06.320
likely. But I think these professionals are different cats. When you listen to Fauci speak, there's nothing
00:26:13.180
political there. There is nothing. Nothing. And that's hard to do. I mean, he is so, Fauci is so clear of
00:26:22.040
political, even vibration, that I put a lot of credit in that guy. So I have complete trust
00:26:30.600
that the experts are telling the president what needs to be told, doing the things that need to
00:26:36.120
be done. And when they do it wrong, they're adjusting. So one of the things that was wrong
00:26:41.200
was the test kits. How much? And I don't know what the details were, but the early testing stuff
00:26:46.380
was too little, didn't work, too late, whatever. So there are questions to be answered there.
00:26:52.040
But, you know, was the president of the United States aware that we didn't have enough test kits?
00:26:58.620
Well, no. But of course, the buck stops at the top. So they're adjusting. But here, too,
00:27:07.860
the same story I said with the ventilators, we should know about the test kits. I'd love to see
00:27:13.420
the news reports actually standing in the factory floor watching the people try to scramble to make
00:27:22.080
more test kits than they've ever made before. I want to see that process. And maybe there's something
00:27:26.860
we could add to it. Right? Do they need labor? Do they need funds? Do they need expertise? Do they need
00:27:34.140
me to call somebody who can make something happen faster? I'd help?
00:27:42.600
Anyway, so I thought the president's presentation was adequate. Hit all the notes. Any complaining
00:27:49.360
about it would not be substantial. So I think we're on the right track. And I agree with Naval
00:27:56.020
that the beauty of this problem is that it has a timer on it. We know with a very high degree
00:28:05.080
of certainty, because of the Chinese and South Korean experiences, we know that we can get
00:28:09.780
a hold of this. We know it'll be hard. But we know we can do it. So let's treat it like
00:28:16.520
a short-term thing that it is. I saw Mike Sertovich noted that if everybody starts doing online
00:28:27.840
education, if the colleges stay closed for a while, or maybe even the schools, the lower
00:28:33.140
schools, people might find out that they like online education better. And they might. That's
00:28:40.980
definitely a possibility. You have some other unintended consequences that are starting to
00:28:45.600
form. One is that I think telemedicine might have a resurgence. You know, it's already growing,
00:28:54.300
but I think telemedicine will get a big boost. So you'll see that. And I think you'll see
00:29:00.100
online shopping for groceries just become a thing. I just tweeted, I think I tweeted it or
00:29:06.120
liked it, I forget, a story that broke my heart today. So I'm going to tell you to break
00:29:11.340
your heart. It was a woman who was tweeting, who was telling the story, a young woman. She
00:29:17.040
was in the grocery, she was in the parking lot of her grocery store. And she heard somebody
00:29:22.400
yelling from inside a car. And it was two elderly people who were inside the car. They, they cracked
00:29:27.880
the window open. And apparently they'd been sitting in their car for 45 minutes, trying to
00:29:33.960
yell to passersby that they were afraid to get out of their car and go in public to shop
00:29:39.760
for groceries. They didn't have food. And they were yelling to people to help them. Apparently
00:29:46.180
they didn't have much of a social family support system. So these two elderly people went there
00:29:53.440
and sat in their car and yelled through a crack in the window. And finally this woman said she'd
00:29:57.900
buy them some groceries. So they, so they put out some money and a shopping list. And so
00:30:02.620
she shopped for some things and putting them, put them in her trunk. Now there might be a lot
00:30:08.740
more of that going on. There might be a lot more seniors who are panicked and don't, don't
00:30:15.540
have the capacity to get through this the best way. So I would say if you know anybody, you
00:30:22.680
know, in that over 70 age group, you might want to check up on them. And one way to help
00:30:28.680
them might be to, um, set up some online grocery shopping and maybe you have to do it for them,
00:30:35.520
but just have their address and their credit card on it. So the food would be delivered to
00:30:40.480
them directly. So, um, I don't know how to help the old people in your life, but put some
00:30:47.060
work into it. So figure out who is your most vulnerable person in your circle and then figure
00:30:53.240
out what you can do to help them. Cause this Wuhan virus is not a spectator sport. As I say,
00:30:59.280
this is, this is all of us, this is all of us doing different things and you're going to have
00:31:05.760
to help out with some elderly people. Uh, Tom Hanks and his wife apparently have the coronavirus.
00:31:11.820
Uh, they're in Australia doing a movie and it's reported that they have it. Their symptoms are mild.
00:31:17.060
But here's the thing that got me a little, uh, close to home. Uh, so Tom Hanks is 63 years old and
00:31:24.460
reportedly somebody will have to confirm this. He has type two diabetes. Is that true? And that's
00:31:31.620
one of the top risk factors. So he's over 60. That's a risk factor. And he has a special condition.
00:31:38.780
Uh, I'm sure it's well, well treated and monitored and you'd have, you know, obviously the finest
00:31:44.300
healthcare, but here's why this scares me in particular, I'm going to be 63, his exact age.
00:31:53.080
And I also have, uh, a risk condition in my case, asthma. And so I'm watching Tom Hanks,
00:32:00.080
like he's the canary in the coal mine for me. So if, if Tom Hanks survives, uh, and he's still alive in a
00:32:09.220
month, I'm going to feel a lot better about myself. Selfishly speaking, I'm sort of using him as my,
00:32:17.800
my surrogate. If he survives the coronavirus, I'm pretty sure I can. Cause you know, he's a very
00:32:23.320
healthy 63. I'm a very healthy 63, except for that one, one issue. Now, of course, my problem is,
00:32:30.700
is, uh, is a lung problem. So I probably have higher risk. Uh, if we are checking our prediction
00:32:40.160
models, I would like to check mine for you. Number one, uh, did you see the video of Kamala Harris and
00:32:50.020
Joe Biden together in which they, they pretend they're doing an endorsement and Kamala says she's
00:32:56.660
endorsing Biden. And then they do a staged artificial conversation after the, after the
00:33:03.500
director yells cut in which Kamala talks about her, I guess her supporters are called the K hive
00:33:09.680
for Kamala K hive. And Joe Biden talks directly to them and hopes that they will support him in his
00:33:16.480
campaign. But the, the actual most interesting part of the little video, because we know that
00:33:23.100
the Democrats are lining up behind Biden. So that's not surprising, but the part of the video
00:33:27.660
that is most interesting is their chemistry. Watch, watch the, uh, if you have a chance,
00:33:34.780
watch it or watch it again, watch the chemistry between Kamala Harris and Joe Biden. It's really
00:33:41.540
good. It's actually really good to me anyway. I mean, I suppose I could be fooled by it, but from
00:33:48.840
an observer's perspective, they look actually like a good pair, like they have some genuine affection
00:33:54.600
and apparently the backstory is that they do because Kamala was apparently very close with
00:34:00.460
Bo Biden and therefore Joe Biden. So I think Kamala is going to be it. Best prediction I ever made
00:34:09.560
because as vice president, she would be effectively the presidential candidate. Um, but here's another
00:34:16.200
one. So I think it was fact checking me on this, but I think I'm right on this. It was January 28th
00:34:22.680
that president Trump called for the ban on travel to China, January 28th on January 24th.
00:34:31.860
Most of you watched me go absolutely crazy on Periscope yelling that we should close the borders.
00:34:39.160
So that's a four day difference. So January 24th, I was aggressively calling for the Chinese
00:34:45.800
travel to stop. And when I said it, I don't know if anybody else had, um, somebody says, wow, Scott,
00:34:57.760
you love that Harris lady, don't you? Apparently you're new here. Nobody has criticized Kamala Harris
00:35:04.360
more than I have, but that doesn't change the fact that demographically she's a good fit for the,
00:35:13.240
the ticket. And it doesn't change the fact that she has really good chemistry with Joe Biden. And,
00:35:19.280
you know, honestly, let's look at this way. If, if you assume that Joe Biden, uh, has some declining
00:35:26.640
mental, uh, situation there, who do you want as the vice president? Do you want somebody that he picked
00:35:33.240
who's just some governor that he doesn't have any connection with that just fits well within the ticket,
00:35:38.580
but wouldn't have any special connection to him? That would be kind of dangerous, wouldn't it?
00:35:45.440
Because if, if the risk that you're looking at is that Joe Biden might be, uh, you know, not fully
00:35:51.680
able to complete a term as president, you want that vice president to not just be capable of taking over
00:35:58.460
the job, but you want them to have a really good connection with the boss because that's a delicate
00:36:05.120
conversation. And it might not be a case of where a medical doctor says, okay, I'm, I'm calling the,
00:36:11.360
I'm calling it. I'm a medical doctor. You know, we need to replace the president. I, I don't know if you
00:36:17.900
wait for that. You want somebody who's close enough to the president to say in a private, in a private
00:36:24.040
conversation, you know, Joe, you saw what you did yesterday. I'm worried about it. I think we ought to have a
00:36:32.120
serious conversation about this. I think Kamala Harris might be close enough to him personally
00:36:38.500
that she could have that conversation. I don't know if a governor could, just some random vice
00:36:44.000
president he picks because it fits good on the ticket. So I think she's a guarantee anyway. So
00:36:48.680
what I'm going to say about, uh, I called for the travel ban on January 24th. The president did it on
00:36:53.220
the 28th. He's being praised for doing it early. Uh, I would like to add this to my correct predictions,
00:37:01.820
even though it wasn't in the form of a prediction, because I, I don't know if anybody in the country
00:37:08.460
said it before I did. Can anybody confirm that for me? Was there, was there any, uh, public person?
00:37:16.100
I'm sure there were private individuals, plenty of them, but was anybody in public
00:37:20.380
calling for the Chinese travel to be shut down completely before I did on January 24th?
00:37:28.080
Let me know. Cause I, I'd like to feel like, um, I was a constructive voice in that.
00:37:36.220
Uh, but I, there's no way to really know. All right. Um, let's see. How's the social distancing
00:37:46.020
coming for all of you? Um, I've just sort of track my social distancing, you know, put numbers
00:37:54.180
on it. I'm doing it in my mind. I'm not, not keeping a spreadsheet, but yesterday, for example,
00:37:59.520
um, I shook zero hands and I was in zero crowds.
00:38:06.600
And the only person I touched was Christina. So I'm doing okay. Uh, I, I've not stood. And by
00:38:18.900
the way, have you noticed that everybody in public is squirrely? Have you noticed that?
00:38:23.660
Somebody says, somebody says, shut TF up. Kamala sucks. And everyone knows that. Uh, maybe some of you
00:38:35.140
are new, but on this periscope, we're allowed to say that somebody does things well, but also does
00:38:41.620
some other things not well. If you can't handle that, you're on the wrong periscope. Yeah. The
00:38:48.580
minimum requirement for being able to watch this periscope is that you have to be able to say that
00:38:53.480
people are not all bad or all good and groups are not all bad or all good. Well, okay. There's
00:38:58.900
probably some groups that are all bad, uh, but we don't talk about them too much. So, you know,
00:39:05.220
try to, try to improve your game so that you can accept that people could be good at things and bad
00:39:10.380
at other things. It's a thing. It really is. Um, NBA got canceled. All the rallies are canceled.
00:39:18.580
Um, remember I told you yesterday that the president should have gone first because whoever
00:39:24.120
goes first just looks like they're the smart one. Cause you know, it's all going to happen.
00:39:27.680
Might as well go first. Um, the weirdest, just the weirdest story about this NBA cancellation is that
00:39:36.340
the, so there was one player, Gobert, G O B E R T, or is it Gobert? This is again, makes me feel
00:39:45.500
like the simulation is winking at me that, that the guy who's in the story has a Bert as the last
00:39:51.560
part of his name, Gobert. Anyway, so he's a basketball player and prior to be prior to being
00:40:00.480
tested and finding out that he is the first NBA player confirmed to have the coronavirus
00:40:05.740
prior to testing. This is the funny part. Before he was testing, he's giving one of these little
00:40:11.620
pressers where each of the players come out, you know, by themselves and talk to the press
00:40:16.520
and he jokingly stands up and makes a joke about the coronavirus. And then in front of the cameras,
00:40:23.300
he jokingly touches all the microphones and all the places like he's joking that he's going to
00:40:29.040
spread the coronavirus to whoever comes next to the microphone. He did that on camera,
00:40:35.280
joking. And at the time he did it, he didn't know he would be the first person tested to actually have
00:40:45.000
coronavirus. What, what is happening? Is the simulation, is it just screaming at us to know
00:40:54.920
that this is made up? I mean, does that seem real? Was there, was there one other basketball player
00:41:01.460
that we could find video footage, video meaning, you know, that you actually see it in which they
00:41:08.840
were joking about having the coronavirus? Was there even one other player anywhere in the,
00:41:14.940
in the professional athlete world? The only one who joked about it on camera is also the first one to
00:41:21.260
be confirmed to have it? What's happening? How is that even possible? Somebody says he's pronounced
00:41:28.460
Gobert, which sounds, sounds correct. All right. So I think the, the world of large social gatherings,
00:41:40.700
I can see two things happening. You know, I had always predicted that large gatherings would have
00:41:46.820
to be canceled, at least outdoor gatherings because of drones, you know, and terrorists. It just seemed like
00:41:53.580
that was obvious, but maybe the, the other reason will be pandemics. And by the way, it's officially
00:42:00.580
a pandemic, which changes nothing. Let's talk about the worst forms of loser think I'm seeing here.
00:42:06.860
I mentioned one, and I'm just going to run through this list. You've heard some of this,
00:42:12.200
but it's worth reminding you because you're going to see so much of it. One is that people are comparing
00:42:18.920
Italy, who's having all kinds of trouble with their hospitals. Their hospitals are overloaded with
00:42:24.140
Corona or Wu, Wuhan virus patients. And people are saying, but don't worry about that, Scott,
00:42:33.120
because that's Italy. You know, Italy is not the United States. We're not going to have that kind
00:42:38.680
of problem. They just have, you know, whatever lesser healthcare services or whatever. Now that's
00:42:45.260
loser thick. And here's why you do not compare, or you should not rationally compare the Italian
00:42:52.340
situation right now to any future American situation. The, the accurate and useful comparison
00:42:59.420
is Italy now with the Corona virus versus Italy with a normal virus in other years with just the
00:43:07.620
normal flu. Have their medical facilities ever been overrun? And the answer is no. So that's
00:43:15.240
why you need to know that this virus is not like other viruses. Don't feel that you're safe because
00:43:21.160
that's only going to happen to some country that has less resources or something. Because even in
00:43:27.100
the top hospitals, you know, the really high end hospitals in Italy, they're still having the same
00:43:32.180
problem. It has nothing to do with the quality of the medical care or anything. It's just a bad flu.
00:43:39.280
So the first loser think is comparing other countries to us. You should only compare those other
00:43:44.580
countries to themselves in the past with the regular flu. That's your best comparison.
00:43:50.620
Now, other people say, Scott, Scott, Scott, if you think this flu is bad, explain to me why South Korea
00:43:57.860
has already got apparently control on it. So their number of new cases was declining.
00:44:03.540
To which I say, that's the exception that proved the rule. South Korea did what nobody else could do,
00:44:11.380
just massive testing and social distancing and fast acting and, you know, just really dramatic
00:44:18.040
changes very quickly. And it worked, apparently. Or at least it worked in the sense of slowing it down.
00:44:26.140
I don't think we're going to eradicate it right away. But what you should learn from that is if you take
00:44:32.400
drastic action, you can slow it down. That shouldn't tell you anything about what's happening in Italy
00:44:37.960
because they didn't do that. It's just a different situation. And of course, don't compare the regular
00:44:45.960
flu to this flu because the regular flu has already run its course. We know it's full numbers. This one's
00:44:52.160
just starting. And the risk is that it ramps up faster than those other ones. So understand the
00:44:56.820
difference. So those are the main things. All right. Here's some more loser think in the form of
00:45:08.320
analogy. This is from actor Kumail Nanjiani. I think he's the actor on Silicon Valley, if I'm correct.
00:45:20.440
He might be a stand-up comedian too. I'm not sure what he does. Anyway, he offers this analogy
00:45:26.160
about closing the flights to Europe from Europe. He says, trying to fight the coronavirus by
00:45:32.480
limiting travel between Europe and the U.S. is like trying to clean a coffee spill by washing
00:45:38.840
the coffee cup. So it's actually a clever analogy. So in terms of cleverness, it's an A+. And it's
00:45:47.940
basically a version of closing the barn door after the horse got out. So he's basically just
00:45:52.960
saying it's too late. To which I say, what? What is wrong with your brain? If there's new virus coming
00:46:02.340
in from Europe all the time, it's never too late. It can't be too late if new virus is coming into the
00:46:10.880
country and it's not already here in the same amount or worse. So using an analogy of a coffee cup
00:46:19.380
is so non-rational, non-thinking craziness. Now, what are the odds? I didn't look at his biography,
00:46:30.700
but what are the odds that Kumail Nanjiani, who's an actor by profession, what are the odds that he
00:46:36.560
also has a background in science or STEM or economics? Probably low, you know, unless he just thought it
00:46:44.600
was funny, I suppose. And he knew it wasn't logical, but it was funny. Can't rule that out.
00:46:49.560
Here's another one. Another opinion. And the funny part is who it comes from. So I'll tell you the
00:46:56.240
opinion first, and then I'll tell you who it comes from. Okay? So that's the fun part. All right. So
00:47:01.940
this is from a tweet. It says, we're weeks past the point when suspending travel from Europe could
00:47:08.380
have even remotely been seen as a strong measure to prevent coronavirus spread. And then the tweet
00:47:16.040
goes on. This is Stephen Miller orchestrated xenophobic sleight of hand. So that the real
00:47:22.840
clever plan here is xenophobia. And the tweet goes on. We need solutions for the crisis we're facing at
00:47:31.260
home right now. All right. So this is somebody who thinks we're weeks past the point when suspending
00:47:38.740
travel from Europe would have been seen as a strong measure. What? I'm pretty sure everybody
00:47:46.920
who was surprised by it last night thought it was a pretty strong measure. What would be a stronger
00:47:53.960
measure than closing travel from Europe? Which, by the way, a lot of Europeans are white. Just
00:48:02.940
saying. Just saying. Doesn't seem so racist. So this is one of the dumbest, if I'm being honest,
00:48:12.880
this is one of the dumbest, lowest level of thinking and awareness I could ever see. You've
00:48:20.700
got this ongoing flow of problems. And the president stopped it before anybody even thought it was on
00:48:27.660
the table. And this guy says it should have happened sooner. Which is literally a chapter in my book,
00:48:34.500
Loser Think. If you look back on my shelf. Maybe it's not there anymore. Oh, there it is. It's this one.
00:48:42.540
It's called Loser Think. You can't see it because of the light. But there's actually a section in there
00:48:50.900
where I'm talking about exactly this. All right. We're talking about exactly the fact that you can
00:49:00.560
always say that something should have been sooner. So that's actually a chapter in the book called
00:49:07.660
Loser Think about bad ways of thinking is that no matter what you do and how good it is, somebody's going
00:49:14.880
to say you should have done it sooner. Right? Because you can always do it sooner. There's no exception to you
00:49:21.400
should have done it sooner in the real world. I mean, hypothetically, there could be, you know, in a
00:49:27.060
technical sense. But in the real world, there's never an exception. You always could have done it sooner. So that's
00:49:33.600
the dumbest complaint because it's just universally true. So who is this guy who makes the dumbest point
00:49:43.100
in public without knowing it's so dumb you should not say this sort of thing in public? What kind of
00:49:49.100
job would this guy have in which he's so dumb? And so I checked his profile and he was the communication
00:50:00.200
and strategy for campaigns and candidates. And he was the former national press secretary for
00:50:07.020
Kamala Harris. That's right. The guy, the guy who was part of the campaign that I had identified
00:50:18.660
months ago as the worst, really the worst campaign I've ever seen. He was on that campaign. And sure
00:50:27.060
enough, I had identified him as extra stupid from his tweet. And then I looked to see where
00:50:32.360
he works. And I find that I had already identified that campaign as extra incompetent. Coincidence?
00:50:41.500
I don't know. Yeah, his name is Ian Sams. Not that that matters. All right.
00:50:48.720
I think that's about what's going on. I don't know what's happening with this Kamala Harris
00:50:59.580
thing. It's sort of weird because I feel like I'll say ABC and then I'll watch right in front
00:51:08.220
of me and people will say, Scott, why are you saying XYZ? And I'll say, well, I'm not. I just
00:51:15.420
said ABC. And I reject XYZ. And then within five seconds, somebody will say, but why do
00:51:24.020
you love XYZ? And I'll say, I don't know what's happening. What's happening? No, my view on Kamala
00:51:32.600
Harris is that she's likely to be the vice president. I don't think she is my first choice for anything.
00:51:37.800
But there you have it. She's got some skills and she's got lots of issues that she needs
00:51:44.480
to improve. Why can't I say that? What's wrong with that?
00:51:51.100
Let me say, so I'm seeing somebody in the comments use, I think it was James Woods who
00:51:57.200
tried to nickname Kamala Harris as Heels Up because she has some history of a relationship
00:52:03.600
with Willie Brown, politician in California that helped her career. Both Willie Brown and she
00:52:09.620
admit that's true. And for me, that's the end of the story. You know, once all the people that once
00:52:16.420
all the people who are involved said, yeah, that's kind of true. That's true. Aren't we done? I mean,
00:52:24.680
once you get people to say, yeah, that's totally true. Yeah, my relationship. Yeah, that helps.
00:52:29.020
They helped my campaign. Aren't we done? What else is there to say about that? Blaming
00:52:35.260
people for things that they acknowledge is a true statement of fact should be the end of
00:52:41.520
the story, should be the end of the conversation. I think I'm going to start blocking people
00:52:49.960
who say Scott has a crush on AOC. That's, I saw that go by in the comments. I'll give you
00:52:56.900
one day of, I'll give you one day of amnesty. Okay. But after today, you will be blocked for
00:53:05.300
dumbness for accusing me of being in love with some female politician just because they're
00:53:12.440
part of the conversation. Okay. We can, we can be a little better than that. So we'll just
00:53:19.100
block you going forward. Bitcoin just fell off the cliff this morning, right? But that
00:53:29.080
you have to check it every five minutes. Good Lord. Holy hell. The stock market's really taken
00:53:37.100
a dump. Bitcoin is down to seven. I'm sorry. It's not down to seven. I'm looking at a fund
00:53:45.020
so that has a different pricing. But it's down 19% today. So it looks like it's down to a new
00:53:51.200
low. Twitter down 9%. Amazon down 4%. Wow. Now all of that, I would refer you back to Naval's
00:54:03.900
comment. This is no time for panic selling, but it looks like a lot of people are doing
00:54:08.240
panic selling. Somebody's testing me by saying Scott has a crush on AOC and your test was successful.
00:54:21.680
You got blocked. You love her? Block. A lot of people want to get blocked today. I don't
00:54:29.060
know why. Somebody says, you said you'd never mentioned racist AOC, but that was a lie. Did I
00:54:47.480
ever say that? If I did, I didn't mean it. Did you see Pence's interview? I did not.
00:54:56.280
Dow is down 2,000. Yeah, you know, I just wouldn't worry about the stock market, honestly,
00:55:03.480
because it's going to do what it's going to do and your share of stuff will be the same.
00:55:10.260
All right. Slaughter meter. Well, the slaughter meter is in a state of flux right now. You know,
00:55:17.000
if the election were held today, it would be a total slaughter and the president would win
00:55:21.760
gigantically. But there's so much happening with the coronavirus. And you know, this is going to be
00:55:28.240
a frothy year. Whatever problems we have, we're going to have new ones in the summer. It's just that
00:55:33.460
kind of year. So nothing's predictable anymore. But if the election were held today, President Trump
00:55:40.680
would win in a slaughter. Somebody says, hope you took your money out. I don't do that. So market timing
00:55:51.420
is not something I do. So if you're doing market timing, good luck. Some of you win. Some of you will
00:56:00.740
get wiped out. It's just not my thing. Somebody says, you need to go to my interface at one hub
00:56:11.520
profile. Yeah. Blockers going to block. All right. We're just looking at your comments. You know,
00:56:27.420
if you don't follow Mark Schneider on Twitter, you really should, because there's all kinds of stuff
00:56:35.160
happening in the nuclear energy field. And you could argue it's the biggest news in the world
00:56:40.720
that doesn't get covered. Because what could be more important to the, you know, let's say the future
00:56:47.800
of civilization? What could be more important than developing these new miniature nuclear power
00:56:55.960
plants? And, you know, we've got free, safe, clean energy that solves any risks that you might
00:57:02.440
imagine from climate change, et cetera. It's like the biggest story. And almost every day, there's a
00:57:07.840
new story about something got funded, something's going into a test site, the government approved
00:57:13.520
something. There's a ton of stuff happening in the nuclear energy field. But I think all of it is in
00:57:19.960
the getting ready for stuff, you know, kind of domain, so that when stuff starts getting online,
00:57:28.020
it's going to happen really quickly. So in other words, there's a point where you're not going to
00:57:32.160
see anything tangible, but there's just a ton of activity. And that's what we're in right now
00:57:36.480
for nuclear power. But you're not going to see the plants for, I don't know, maybe in five years,
00:57:42.780
people will start showing you pictures of the nearly completed plant and stuff. But it's going to
00:57:47.720
happen quickly when it happens. It's just not happening yet. One of the weird things about
00:57:55.800
this economy is that not everybody is going to be affected. There will be businesses that just do
00:58:03.520
better. I've been trying to game it out in my head, like what's likely to happen, because we've never
00:58:09.440
seen a situation where everybody stopped traveling for three months, right? Like, I don't think we've seen
00:58:15.860
that situation. So we're all just guessing what happens. Now, one thing that happens is a bunch
00:58:21.140
of people save their money. So for everybody who loses a paycheck, and I hope we can figure out
00:58:27.140
something to do about that, because that's a pretty big problem, a real big problem. But for everybody
00:58:33.720
who loses a paycheck, for every small business that loses customers, and there will be a lot of them,
00:58:38.780
I feel as though there may be an equal number of people who still get their paycheck, just like
00:58:46.120
always, even if their employer is not doing so well. You know, they're not losing money yet. So they'll
00:58:51.560
still get their paycheck, and they won't be spending as much. So you have this weird situation where
00:58:57.060
there's a whole bunch of people who just by luck were not affected. They get their paycheck, and they
00:59:02.960
don't spend as much. So they're building up their little savings account, while other people are
00:59:07.980
suffering. What happens the day things, you know, let's say when things go back to normal, what
00:59:14.160
happens with the people who have extra money? Do they spend it extra fast, or does it become part
00:59:20.440
of their permanent savings? If the people who actually gained money during this, and I might be one of them,
00:59:26.600
by the way, so I'm a perfect example. As far as I know, at least in the short run, my income will be
00:59:34.680
roughly the same. Because, you know, at least for the next three months, everything was sort of in
00:59:41.060
the pipeline. Most newspapers will still be in business, and all that. So at the end of three
00:59:47.520
months, I will have saved a bunch of money that I normally would have spent. I would have traveled,
00:59:54.200
I might have bought more stuff, I would have gone out more, I would have gone out to restaurants more.
00:59:58.100
What happens to that money? Now, in my case, you know, maybe I have enough money, so it doesn't make
01:00:03.080
any difference in the world. But it could be half of the country has extra spending that's pent up,
01:00:11.180
and they've been locked in their houses for three months. So you might see an outpouring of spending
01:00:17.440
like we've never seen before, just because it's possible. You know, the people who are living
01:00:23.720
paycheck to paycheck, let's say as a server for a restaurant, they weren't going on big expensive
01:00:29.620
vacations anyway. So for them, the job is to survive, you know, to buy the basics. But there
01:00:39.040
are a lot of people who are going to have some extra cash, and they're going to spend like crazy
01:00:42.840
unless they just put it into the stock market, which is also possible. Oh, by the way, all that
01:00:48.160
cash that came out of the market, that's got to go somewhere, right? People don't sit on cash in the
01:00:55.200
long run. It's not a thing. Nobody does it. It won't happen. So all of that, like trillions and
01:01:01.300
trillions of dollars that just people took out of the market, they parked it somewhere. Where's it
01:01:06.620
going? It doesn't disappear. It just moved. And as long as it's still there, it's going to move back
01:01:14.400
when it needs to. So here's the long story short, that you're going to see a recovery that happens so
01:01:22.660
fast it'll make your head snap. So anybody who's not in the market when the turnaround happens,
01:01:29.320
because it's probably going to be like, you know, just two or three days, the whole world is going to
01:01:33.620
say, well, it's back, it's back, it's back, get in, get in, get in, get in, get in. So when it turns
01:01:37.800
back up, you're going to miss a lot of gain as it goes up. So it's not a time I would be out of the
01:01:46.240
market, but I'm not giving you financial advice. That's all I got for now. Oh, I'm over time.
01:01:55.480
Let's go back to our day. And you have a good day.
