Timcast IRL - Tim Pool - Trump SLAMS Joe Rogan Over RFK Praise, Rogan Says He DIDNT ENDORSE w-Caitlin Sinclair | Timcast IRL

00:00:00.000 Ladies and gentlemen, if you've been paying attention to the news or X, you may have seen

00:00:19.000 that I made a very, an important political announcement that I would like to reaffirm

00:00:27.000 here as we start this show.

00:00:29.000 I would like to announce that I, Tim Pool, am fully endorsing, for President of these United States, Donald Trump.

00:00:38.000 I don't know why the media thought that my thread of snark was in any way an actual endorsement of RFK Jr.

00:00:45.000 That being said, a lot of people told me it was mean because RFK Jr.

00:00:48.000 thought it was a real endorsement, and I felt kind of bad about it.

00:00:52.000 But basically the story is, it's a slow news day, and the big news trending on social media was that Joe Rogan had endorsed RFK Jr.

00:01:00.000 He did not.

00:01:00.000 He said nice things about him.

00:01:02.000 He did say he was the only one who made sense, so many people saw it as an unofficial endorsement.

00:01:06.000 And Donald Trump personally responded on Truth Social, saying that Joe Rogan, I wonder how much booze he's going to get the next time he shows up to UFC.

00:01:15.000 Many of the most diehard Trump supporters began insulting and attacking Joe Rogan.

00:01:19.000 Then I got involved and said, don't make enemies of friends, which turned into this whole thing where I said, okay, fine, I'll vote for RFK Jr.

00:01:25.000 And then the media took it seriously.

00:01:27.000 Dave Smith chimed in, and like I said, it's a slow news day, especially when they're writing about me.

00:01:33.000 But this is a big component of Kamala Harris is leading in the polls, she's leading in the betting markets in aggregate, in both. 0.96

00:01:40.000 And the response from a lot of Trump supporters is, oh, you can't believe it, it's all lies.

00:01:44.000 Ladies and gentlemen, you're going to have to redouble your efforts if you want this man to win.

00:01:47.000 And we're going to talk a lot about this.

00:01:49.000 We got a bunch of other news.

00:01:50.000 In Virginia, they're switching, by executive order, they're switching to paper ballots.

00:01:54.000 This is big.

00:01:54.000 ActBlue has made some moves because they're being investigated.

00:01:58.000 And we got CNN saying that pillows are funding the subversion of democracy.

00:02:05.000 That's what happens when it's a slow news day, okay?

00:02:08.000 What can I tell you?

00:02:08.000 But it'll be fun.

00:02:09.000 It's Friday.

00:02:10.000 Before we get started, my friends, head over to castbrew.com and buy Cast Brew Coffee.

00:02:13.000 Why?

00:02:14.000 I don't know, because Alex Stein is screaming in our commercial.

00:02:16.000 And it's good.

00:02:17.000 It's good coffee.

00:02:18.000 Some say the best.

00:02:19.000 Everyone agrees.

00:02:20.000 At least that's what I was told.

00:02:21.000 Appalachian Nights whole bean or ground.

00:02:23.000 These are people's favorites.

00:02:24.000 But Ian's Graphene Dream is quickly taking the rank.

00:02:28.000 Is moving up in the ranks, I should say.

00:03:10.000 Thanks for having me.

00:03:10.000 And if Alex Stein's face is on coffee beans, I want in.

00:03:14.000 Yeah, it's Alex Stein's prime time grind.

00:03:16.000 Two times caffeine.

00:03:17.000 That's his face.

00:03:18.000 It's good stuff.

00:03:19.000 What do you do?

00:03:21.000 What do I do?

00:03:21.000 I definitely don't skate yet, but I have to say that skate park is pretty confusing.

00:03:26.000 Yeah, well, whenever you want to learn.

00:03:27.000 I'm wearing my Converse, so.

00:03:29.000 Oh, all right.

00:03:31.000 So I just joined the Turning Point team with Charlie Kirk and the folks over there in Phoenix, so really excited to be in this movement in a completely different capacity.

00:03:40.000 I've been a reporter for One America News for the past five years.

00:03:44.000 We've taken on the streets of Manhattan, so this is a completely different role, and we are engaging the young generations that really need to be involved in this movement.

00:03:53.000 So I'm really excited.

00:03:55.000 Right on.

00:03:55.000 Thanks for hanging out.

00:03:56.000 Shane's hanging out.

00:03:57.000 Awesome.

00:03:57.000 It's good to be here.

00:03:58.000 Host of Inverted World Live.

00:03:59.000 It's every Sunday at 6 p.m.

00:04:01.000 Also, singer of a band called The Joy Feed.

00:04:03.000 You can hear our new song right now pinned to the top of my profile.

00:04:06.000 Check it out after the show.

00:04:07.000 See you later.

00:04:08.000 You do everything.

00:04:09.000 I'm doing it all.

00:04:11.000 I'm a man of many talents.

00:04:12.000 What's up, Hannah-Claire?

00:04:13.000 Oh, I'm good.

00:04:14.000 I'm happy to be here on this Friday.

00:04:15.000 I'm glad Caitlyn can be with us.

00:04:17.000 I'm Hannah-Claire Brimlow.

00:04:17.000 I'm a writer for SCNR.com, Scanner News.

00:04:19.000 I'm happy to be back with all of you.

00:04:20.000 Thanks for everything you do.

00:04:21.000 Let's get started.

00:04:22.000 Before we do, there are two big stories that haven't developed enough for us to do anything more on, but I will mention.

00:04:28.000 Trump's—his airplane diverted.

00:04:30.000 I believe—what did it divert to?

00:04:32.000 Billings?

00:04:32.000 Because of a mechanical issue?

00:04:35.000 There's not much more there.

00:04:36.000 I believe he landed safely.

00:04:37.000 Is there anything—I don't know.

00:04:38.000 They're sweeping the plane.

00:04:40.000 And then there's emergency vehicles outside of the White House, but Joe Biden's not there, so there's not much more to go on for those stories, so there's some breaking news.

00:04:47.000 But let's jump to this one from Newsweek.

00:04:50.000 MAGA turns on Joe Rogan after praise for RFK Jr. 1.00

00:04:54.000 Dude is dumb. 1.00

00:04:56.000 Well, there you go. 1.00

00:04:57.000 They say some of Joe Rogan's fans are not happy he spoke glowingly of independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy while comparing him to other politicians. 0.97

00:05:04.000 I'd like to pause right there and say, the dudes who are calling him stupid and saying they don't watch his show, I wouldn't call fans. 0.96

00:05:11.000 However, there are some. 0.99

00:05:12.000 Fine.

00:05:13.000 The Podcaster made the comments Thursday during an episode of The Rogan Experience, where he explained why he liked RFK Jr.

00:05:20.000 I'm a fan.

00:05:21.000 He's the only one that doesn't attack people.

00:05:22.000 He attacks actions and ideas, but he's much more reasonable and intelligent.

00:05:27.000 Kennedy is running as one of four independent candidates.

00:05:30.000 Yeah, yeah, yeah, we know, we know, we know.

00:05:32.000 Rogan on Friday followed up the comments by stating on X-Post that it was not an endorsement, saying, for the record, this isn't an endorsement.

00:05:38.000 It's me saying I like RFK Jr.

00:05:40.000 as a person, and I really appreciate the way he discusses things with civility and intelligence.

00:05:45.000 I think we could use more of that in this world.

00:05:48.000 MAGA, which stands for Make America Great Again, and I'd be surprised if someone didn't know that, is a tagline used blah blah blah.

00:05:54.000 So we have this quote, so I've never been a Joe Rogan fan, can't stand him. 0.97

00:05:58.000 Yes, he has a popular podcast, but I've always thought he was absolutely politically dumb.

00:06:02.000 He's great at figuring things out two years after we do.

00:06:05.000 What a legend. 1.00

00:06:07.000 So, did it surprise me when he endorsed idiot RFK Jr. 1.00

00:06:10.000 today? 1.00

00:06:10.000 LOL, no. 1.00

00:06:11.000 We are talking about the same effing idiot who endorsed Bernie Sanders, right? 1.00

00:06:14.000 He's the podcast equivalent of a dumb blonde joke. 1.00

00:06:17.000 Wrote one person on X, formerly Twitter, to their 2.2 million followers. 0.98

00:06:21.000 I believe that was captured.

00:06:22.000 Who wrote that?

00:06:24.000 They don't want to print his name?

00:06:26.000 That's so disrespectful.

00:06:27.000 That is funny.

00:06:27.000 They didn't want to, yeah, mention his name.

00:06:29.000 Well, he did walk that back.

00:06:30.000 MAGA business analyst J.D.O. Post says Joe Rogan thinks RFK Jr. is the only candidate

00:06:34.000 that makes sense to him.

00:06:35.000 Tell me how TF a man that wants to allow full-term abortions makes sense to anyone.

00:06:39.000 Well, he did walk that back, and I think the criticism there is kind of the wishy-washiness

00:06:43.000 of the issue.

00:06:44.000 They're going to mention some other people criticizing Joe, and, well, Donald Trump chimed

00:06:50.000 And this is the big hit.

00:06:52.000 And I also think the very big mistake.

00:06:54.000 Donald Trump posted on Truth, I don't think Trump posted that.

00:06:57.000 I think Trump's got bad people around him.

00:06:59.000 gets booed the next time he enters the UFC ring, MAGA 2024.

00:07:03.000 I don't think Trump posted that.

00:07:05.000 I think Trump's got bad people around him.

00:07:07.000 I don't think Trump pays that much attention to the bickerings of podcasts, but this is 1.00

00:07:12.000 stupid. 1.00

00:07:14.000 It's very stupid. 1.00

00:07:15.000 Joe Rogan has a truth-telling podcast that has red-pilled many a person. 1.00

00:07:20.000 It is one of the most popular podcasts in the world.

00:07:23.000 On Spotify, it's number one.

00:07:25.000 On Apple, it's like number six or seven.

00:07:27.000 I think for a variety of reasons, it's not the biggest in the world anymore.

00:07:30.000 It may still be.

00:07:31.000 It may still be.

00:07:32.000 But metrics are really hard to track.

00:07:33.000 But he's dropped ranks.

00:07:34.000 He used to be number one on iTunes all the time.

00:07:36.000 Now he's like six or seven.

00:07:38.000 Certainly one of the biggest, and he's reaching regular people.

00:07:41.000 I can tell you personally that I have many friends who are lefty liberals waving pride flags, and they listen to Joe Rogan every day.

00:07:46.000 Same.

00:07:47.000 And so when Joe Rogan says Fauci is bad, when he says Kamala doesn't even make sense because she has no campaign positions, when he says Joe Biden's brain doesn't work, this is one of the ways, if not the only way, some of these people will get exposed to any real truth and maybe ask themselves a question.

00:08:03.000 So why would you then attack Joe Rogan It's weird that they just chose now to get mad, because if you've listened to anything else he's said about Trump, he's said I think publicly, I'm not having him on my show, and he's also been very favorable to RFK in the past.

00:08:20.000 I think they're scared.

00:08:21.000 Well, that's probably the difference now.

00:08:23.000 Yeah, Cat Turd's pretty scared over there.

00:08:25.000 What a sentence.

00:08:27.000 If Rogan came out in support of Donald Trump today, let's say, and made that public, Cat Turd would have been all over that, saying, you love him.

00:08:35.000 All of these people.

00:08:36.000 And look at the tweets we saw on social media.

00:08:38.000 I've never been a fan of Joe Rogan, says Mr. Catterd.

00:08:42.000 So it's just pandering.

00:08:44.000 This is exactly what they want us to do.

00:08:46.000 I think they're scared because the polls have shifted for Kamala.

00:08:49.000 Not that we trust polls, right?

00:08:51.000 But the prediction markets have also shifted for Kamala.

00:08:54.000 The Trump campaign's calling it a honeymoon phase.

00:08:56.000 Donald Trump does a press conference.

00:08:58.000 They are taking this stuff very seriously.

00:09:00.000 So when Kyle Rittenhouse comes out to, what does he have, like two million followers, I guess?

00:09:05.000 He gets a struggle session.

00:09:07.000 And this is really what gets me involved.

00:09:09.000 I'm like, dude, we talked about Kyle Rittenhouse when they struggle sessioned him.

00:09:14.000 And I'm like, don't don't do that. 1.00

00:09:15.000 It's stupid. 1.00

00:09:16.000 Kyle Rittenhouse has got never-Trumpers around him. 1.00

00:09:18.000 You need to be his friend and pull him away from the crackpots who are whispering lies into his ears that Trump is bad on 2A.

00:09:25.000 Trump's not perfect on 2A, but he's the best on 2A relative to what we got.

00:09:29.000 And RFK Jr.

00:09:29.000 is not going to win.

00:09:31.000 And RFK Jr.

00:09:32.000 is probably a gun grabber.

00:09:33.000 He's probably going to be for a Yeah, I thought he was famously weak on two ways.

00:09:37.000 I think there are a couple things that conservatives will point out and be like, oh, he does these things right, but there are a lot of things that he does incorrectly.

00:09:44.000 I mean, abortion is one of the issues that, you know, especially Christian conservatives don't like him on.

00:09:48.000 But, you know, with the Joe Rogan podcast, you mentioned a liberal friend who listened to it.

00:09:52.000 I actually was introduced to it by someone who is not political at all.

00:09:55.000 And that's what I think one of the biggest flaws in attacking Joe Rogan is.

00:09:58.000 There are people who just consume media, who are not that interested in politics, who are living life, totally fine, but who will ultimately probably turn up at the polls this fall.

00:10:08.000 And if you're starting to jump down the throat of everyone at all times, you're either going to disincentivize them to partake or you're going to drive them into the arms of whoever they think is less annoying.

00:10:16.000 You're going to alienate anyone that's maybe on the fence right now.

00:10:20.000 And the entire sentiment that they were attacking Joe Rogan for saying about, oh, how RFK Jr.

00:10:26.000 is maybe open-minded.

00:10:27.000 He attacks ideas and opinions, but not people.

00:10:30.000 That entire sentiment was just echoed by these extremists on both sides.

00:10:34.000 And we need to focus on the vision, on the ideas, on the plan.

00:10:38.000 And that's the only way we'll win.

00:10:39.000 Here's a question for everybody, and you can answer.

00:10:41.000 And the people in the chat, if you're listening in a live answer, and you can super chat.

00:10:46.000 Do you think that if people knew the 100% truth, they would vote for Donald Trump?

00:10:53.000 Depends how they view truth.

00:10:55.000 No, no, no.

00:10:55.000 I mean, like, no question, no nonsense truth.

00:10:58.000 Like, quite literally, they're like, oh, the Burisma thing's real. 0.97

00:11:00.000 Do you think if the average person was exposed to the literal truth of things, Joe Biden's Burisma deals, Hunter Biden's deals, Hunter Biden foreign dealings, the Hunter Biden laptop, do you think they would vote for Donald Trump?

00:11:11.000 I think their hate of Trump trumps the truth for them.

00:11:15.000 I am not saying, I am saying quite literally if they knew the truth.

00:11:20.000 I'm not saying if they're rejecting to listen to it.

00:11:20.000 Yeah.

00:11:22.000 I'm saying if a person sat down and went, I didn't know that was true.

00:11:25.000 Wow.

00:11:26.000 Yeah.

00:11:27.000 Would they, would they vote for Trump?

00:11:28.000 I don't think so.

00:11:29.000 You don't, you don't think people, people, I think there's some people who hate.

00:11:31.000 Is there a percentage of people who had, they learned the truth that they vote for Trump?

00:11:35.000 I think there's a percentage of people, but I think there's still a large majority of Americans that don't even want to hear the facts.

00:11:41.000 There are a lot of females in this country right now that are voting for Kamala Harris because of the whole women card. 0.98

00:11:47.000 I just did this men on the street interview over in Arizona.

00:11:50.000 A handful of these women I interviewed had no idea where Kamala Harris stands on sports, putting men in women's sports. 1.00

00:11:58.000 Their answer to me was, oh, I didn't know that.

00:12:00.000 But they don't want to know.

00:12:01.000 They don't actually want to be educated.

00:12:02.000 If the answer is no, then just go home.

00:12:06.000 Don't bother campaigning.

00:12:08.000 There's no convincing these people.

00:12:10.000 Trump's going to lose or that's it, right?

00:12:10.000 It's over.

00:12:12.000 I mean, that's what the cat turds want. 1.00

00:12:14.000 Well, the answer is actually... Most people are saying yes.

00:12:17.000 Maybe I should actually put a poll up.

00:12:19.000 The answer is yes.

00:12:20.000 If people knew the truth, they'd vote for Trump.

00:12:23.000 There's no question.

00:12:23.000 That's it.

00:12:24.000 I guess where I'm coming from is there's so many people you could show certain things, like actual video, and they still refuse to see that truth.

00:12:31.000 Yeah, but that's not knowing the truth if they refuse to watch it.

00:12:33.000 You're saying they get it and they are actually digesting that truth and then understanding it.

00:12:39.000 I guess my faith in that I think the orange man bad syndrome is still stronger. 0.52

00:12:46.000 So is there a percentage of people who, when learning the truth, would vote for Donald

00:12:49.000 Trump?

00:12:50.000 I think a percentage.

00:12:51.000 And what's that percentage?

00:12:52.000 Is it 1?

00:12:53.000 10?

00:12:54.000 I think it's low, but it could be enough to change, to sway the vote.

00:12:56.000 If the answer is you can't convince these people, then why even talk about it?

00:13:01.000 To mobilize people who are feeling nihilistic about voting at all, who are leaning conservative.

00:13:07.000 So you're saying that there are people who know the truth already but don't want to vote?

00:13:09.000 I think the point is to target the low-propensity voters.

00:13:12.000 The low-propensity voters in this country.

00:13:14.000 I think probably 60% of people have no idea what's going on in the world.

00:13:18.000 And if you go to the average suburb and you ask them about trans issues or foreign policy, they're going to say, huh?

00:13:23.000 Right.

00:13:23.000 Like the men in the street I was just talking about.

00:13:25.000 But how shocking is that?

00:13:27.000 What news are you possibly consuming?

00:13:28.000 Are you consuming no news at all?

00:13:31.000 So I think we still stay in this fight.

00:13:33.000 I mean, there's no point of going home now, but... I think that you'd likely see, if you took every person in this country, every person of voting age, and they were lined up, and blink!

00:13:43.000 In their mind, they knew the actual truth.

00:13:45.000 There's no question of watching a video or reading.

00:13:47.000 No, they just knew what actually happened.

00:13:49.000 Then you'd end up with like 65-70% voting for Trump.

00:13:52.000 It'd be massive. 0.94

00:13:53.000 There's a lot of people who are evil.

00:13:56.000 There are a lot of people who believe in a system where the powerful should control the weaker.

00:14:00.000 Democrats represent this very well.

00:14:02.000 They lie to their constituents. 1.00

00:14:03.000 They treat them like morons. 1.00

00:14:05.000 And so I think you'd get a massive shift. 0.99

00:14:08.000 The point is, if there is any possibility, That the truth will make someone vote for Donald Trump, then Trump supporters should be praising Joe Rogan, even if it's 2%.

00:14:18.000 2% of people upon learning the truth about Fauci, Kamala Harris, and Biden will vote for Donald Trump.

00:14:23.000 They say, nope, we don't want it.

00:14:24.000 We don't want that 2%. 1.00

00:14:26.000 I also just think they should stop going to hysterics over everything.

00:14:29.000 Everything.

00:14:29.000 Hysterics all the time.

00:14:30.000 If Joe Rogan's not voting for Trump, who cares?

00:14:33.000 There's so many other people.

00:14:35.000 If you are looking for Joe Rogan to personally convert every inactive voter into someone who is going to vote for your candidate, you're doing it wrong.

00:14:42.000 You should be looking to Scott Pressler and saying, how can I register voters?

00:14:45.000 What conversations do I need to have to shift the outcome of this election?

00:14:49.000 Right.

00:14:49.000 There's a level of, like, emotional response that I just find, like, to be unproductive.

00:14:54.000 And, you know, the question about the truth is interesting because, you know, if the voters knew the truth about, let's say, the Burisma scandal, and they all knew, like, what the Biden family had done, maybe they would vote for Donald Trump.

00:15:03.000 I tend to think there are never Trumpers who would say, he's too orange and I'll never do it.

00:15:08.000 But now we're actually shifting towards would that be enough to make them not vote for Kamala Harris?

00:15:13.000 Again, I still think the bigger issue is make them vote at all.

00:15:16.000 I think the answer is if people knew it's 100%. 0.99

00:15:19.000 The reason people hate Trump is because they believe lies from MSNBC and CNN and other garbage. 0.89

00:15:24.000 But you really need to learn the truth when you're witnessing the truth every day, when you're looking in your wallet, you're looking at your bank account, you're trying to fill up your gas tank. 0.99

00:15:30.000 But then they turn on MSNBC who says, you look in your wallet, right?

00:15:33.000 Trump's fault.

00:15:34.000 So we're still talking about, you're talking about people that are seeking some sort of truth.

00:15:38.000 They're consuming some sort of news.

00:15:39.000 There are people out there that aren't seeking or looking for any information.

00:15:43.000 And I think those people are maybe more open-minded.

00:15:46.000 Like the reality of the collapsing economy is the thing that's pressing them.

00:15:51.000 And so what motivates those voters?

00:15:53.000 That tends to just be voting against the administration.

00:15:56.000 Or not voting at all.

00:15:58.000 I mean, yeah, but if someone's motivated because they have no money, they tend to vote out.

00:16:01.000 They vote against the incumbent, whatever it may be.

00:16:04.000 Kamala Harris is in a weird position because she's not the incumbent, but she still kind of is. 1.00

00:16:07.000 I love it when she's like, day one, I'm going to get these prices down.

00:16:11.000 It's like, but you're there.

00:16:12.000 What are you doing now?

00:16:13.000 You're there now.

00:16:14.000 It'll be day 1440-something.

00:16:17.000 All right, well let me pull up the next piece of this story.

00:16:20.000 So we got this from NJ.com.

00:16:23.000 And I suppose I should pull up the mediaite one because that's funny too.

00:16:26.000 Trump loses another big-time podcaster. 1.00

00:16:29.000 These people are as stupid as you could possibly imagine. 1.00

00:16:34.000 What is this? 1.00

00:16:34.000 Tim Pool backtracks on RFK Jr. 1.00

00:16:39.000 endorsement claims was only trolling after MAGA backlash.

00:16:42.000 Oof, I really stepped in it.

00:16:44.000 What did you do?

00:16:44.000 You've never trolled before.

00:16:45.000 These people are so stupid! 1.00

00:16:48.000 NJ.com, this guy Matt Arco saw the one tweet where I said, OK, I'm voting for RFK Jr. 1.00

00:16:54.000 now.

00:16:55.000 It's part of a series of tweets where I'm like, stop attacking moderates.

00:17:00.000 Why are Trump supporters attacking moderates?

00:17:02.000 Why is Trump tweeting at Joe Rogan?

00:17:04.000 I said, okay, fine.

00:17:05.000 Okay, I'm voting for R.F.K.

00:17:06.000 Jr.

00:17:06.000 now.

00:17:07.000 And then R.F.K.

00:17:08.000 Jr.

00:17:08.000 quote tweeted it saying, thank you, Tim.

00:17:10.000 I appreciate your support for the Constitution.

00:17:12.000 That one was hard to read.

00:17:13.000 I'll be honest with you.

00:17:16.000 Myron Gaines was like, I don't know what's worse, that you actually believe this tweet was real or that something about Shmuley, I don't know.

00:17:22.000 But like, I actually felt really bad that he thought it was real.

00:17:25.000 And so I was like, look, you're a good dude, but I'm not voting for you.

00:17:28.000 I was like, is Tim going to be guilt-tripped now into going through with his endorsement?

00:17:32.000 How bad do you feel, Tim?

00:17:34.000 And so then this guy wrote another story saying, what did he write?

00:17:38.000 Mega podcaster backpedals.

00:17:40.000 Ooh, if I really stepped in it.

00:17:42.000 There's, like, eight tweets of me being like, you're driving people away, stop attacking Joe Rogan, stop attacking Kyle Rittenhouse, and then in response to, like, someone calling me a cuss or a slur or something, I said, okay, I'm voting for RFK Jr.

00:17:57.000 now.

00:17:57.000 And then I think the reality is two things.

00:18:00.000 It's a slow news day.

00:18:01.000 So they write about me because they got nothing else to write about.

00:18:03.000 It's a boring day.

00:18:04.000 And they know it's not true, but they want to say it anyway, because anything that allows them to say, oh, Trump's losing support or whatever, it's how they manipulate this game.

00:18:14.000 So actually, we have the tweets here, and I can show you the threads.

00:18:18.000 And then there's a... I don't know if I have the other one pulled up on Rogan.

00:18:21.000 Tim Pool backtracks on his endorsement.

00:18:23.000 Oh, please.

00:18:24.000 They actually show the other tweets, but...

00:18:29.000 R.F.

00:18:29.000 Gagin said, I'm so grateful to you, Tim, for your confidence in me, but most of all for your steadfast defense of the Constitution and relentless love for our country.

00:18:38.000 I felt embarrassed for him.

00:18:39.000 Poor guy.

00:18:40.000 But I get it, because he's a nice guy.

00:18:42.000 He's a nice guy.

00:18:42.000 And he's been on our show, too.

00:18:43.000 I like him.

00:18:44.000 He's not going to win.

00:18:46.000 He should endorse Donald Trump, and Trump should give him a position on environmental toxins and health issues in government.

00:18:52.000 The Hodge twins got it right away.

00:18:53.000 They responded with a laughing emoji.

00:18:55.000 Tons of other people were posting.

00:18:58.000 The people that wrote these articles knew, too.

00:19:00.000 They also knew.

00:19:02.000 I get people who will be like, oh, I love the show, but I just hate this thing Tim is tweeting, and I'll know that you just did it as a troll.

00:19:10.000 I don't think people really understand how Twitter works in relationship with the media ecosystem.

00:19:17.000 They take everything very seriously, and I can understand that in the sense that it's a very stressful time.

00:19:21.000 A lot of people are really concerned about the future, and they're looking to people with influence to help them make sense of it.

00:19:26.000 On the other hand, It's not just a series of press releases.

00:19:30.000 I'm from New York.

00:19:31.000 Our language is literally sarcasm, so I don't know.

00:19:34.000 I saw someone say that Tim wasn't a serious person, and he tweeted that.

00:19:38.000 Correct, I'm not a serious person.

00:19:40.000 I added to that.

00:19:41.000 Correct, I'm not a serious person.

00:19:42.000 Says man that bought a 100-foot billboard to put his rooster on in Times Square.

00:19:46.000 To be fair, I know it's funny to say that, but we were advertising a show that was making money.

00:19:50.000 But still.

00:19:51.000 So this is important for people to understand.

00:19:53.000 Chicken City, at its launch, we put a big campaign behind it and it's a live stream

00:19:59.000 of our chickens and we were pulling about 20k a month.

00:20:02.000 That part is no joke.

00:20:03.000 But the fact that I was on the billboard with a rooster.

00:20:06.000 You were.

00:20:07.000 That sounds iconic.

00:20:08.000 So it is funny when I say I bought a billboard of my rooster.

00:20:10.000 It's like well, it was a legitimate business that was making money and we thought we'd

00:20:14.000 take some of that money and put it on the billboard.

00:20:16.000 And then people asked me, well, why don't you keep making the same amount of money off Chicken City?

00:20:20.000 And I was like, I really don't want to focus on growing my chicken livestream.

00:20:26.000 It was fun, but maintaining that level of income requires a lot of work and promotion and marketing.

00:20:31.000 It's fine if people want to hang out on Chicken City and watch the chickens, but it's not going to be a big staple for the business.

00:20:36.000 Do the chickens know you're saying this?

00:20:37.000 Well, you know, Roberto Jr. has been advertised.

00:20:39.000 I'd rather a billboard of Chicken City than another billboard of the Kardashians any day.

00:20:43.000 That's true. 0.98

00:20:44.000 Well, RFK Jr. tweeted, I said, oof, I really stepped into this time, holy crap, I'm voting 0.99

00:20:49.000 for Donald Trump. 0.99

00:20:50.000 This isn't, you know, WTF.

00:20:51.000 He says, there's plenty of time to change your mind.

00:20:53.000 You know where to find me.

00:20:54.000 I'll be working to unite America.

00:20:56.000 I do like RFK Jr.

00:20:58.000 And what Joe Rogan said about him being nice and avoiding attacks is about 95% true.

00:21:03.000 You know, Billboard Chris called him out for saying bad things about, I think, Moms for Liberty.

00:21:09.000 And so the dude is far from perfect.

00:21:12.000 He tried playing this high road attack on me when I criticized him for saying Indigenous Peoples Day.

00:21:18.000 He's like, this is beneath you, Tim.

00:21:20.000 And, you know, you lose credibility when you say these things.

00:21:23.000 And I'm like, oh, spare me, dude.

00:21:25.000 And I was like, on the show, I said, and that's why I waited 45 minutes to bring it up, because it's not the principal issue.

00:21:30.000 But come on, people care about American culture.

00:21:33.000 That being said, he's a nice guy.

00:21:35.000 And he sounds like a funny, fun guy.

00:21:37.000 Kind of weird, but that's okay.

00:21:38.000 But he's not going to win.

00:21:39.000 He should probably in October, drop out of the race, endorse Donald Trump, and Donald Trump should give him a position in the administration.

00:21:46.000 His Fauci book is incredible.

00:21:48.000 It's a horror book.

00:21:49.000 It's horrifying, but it's a really good book.

00:21:52.000 But that's the thing.

00:21:53.000 Rogan was the staunch advocate for exposing what was happening during those times.

00:21:58.000 So it just boggles my mind that we're having conservatives attack him when he still is one of our biggest allies and just a common sense dude.

00:22:07.000 So it makes no sense.

00:22:09.000 Do you think it's a compliance issue?

00:22:11.000 There's like a faction of the MAGA movement that expects everyone to fall in line?

00:22:15.000 I think there's extreme ends to both parties.

00:22:19.000 And when MAGA gets attacked, I think you see the really ugly side.

00:22:23.000 And think about someone like Vivek Ramaswamy, right?

00:22:25.000 He says this all the time.

00:22:27.000 We will lose if we keep focusing on the noise.

00:22:30.000 At the end of the day, you don't win elections with having celebrities and the Joe Rogans of the world endorsing you anyway.

00:22:35.000 You win elections by registering voters, by chasing ballots, by engaging your community.

00:22:41.000 So at the end of the day, this is all noise, and I think it's so heavily calculated.

00:22:45.000 They want us to fall into these traps.

00:22:47.000 They want to bait Donald Trump into saying or tweeting or posting on Truth Social some outrageous attack, right?

00:22:54.000 So I think what Vivek always says is we need to focus on the vision, focus on the policies, because guess who's not focusing on policies over there?

00:23:01.000 Ms.

00:23:01.000 Kamala Coconut Tree.

00:23:03.000 Vivek's fantastic.

00:23:04.000 He had this great thread.

00:23:06.000 I saw it on Instagram.

00:23:07.000 It was on X, but it was also on Instagram, where he's talking about... I think he was talking about, like, tampon Tim stuff and these weird names.

00:23:13.000 And he's like, he was basically saying this is stupid. 0.99

00:23:15.000 Right. 1.00

00:23:16.000 Now is the time to go at issues instead of trying to play these silly games.

00:23:20.000 I completely agree with him, though.

00:23:21.000 He articulated it way better than I ever could.

00:23:23.000 And it was like three slides long or whatever.

00:23:27.000 And I think he gets it.

00:23:29.000 And, you know, Trump did this press conference the other day where he was like, Kamala's not smart enough to do a conference.

00:23:34.000 She won't do a conference.

00:23:36.000 Seemed like he was trying to goad her into doing a conference, challenging her.

00:23:39.000 She ended up answering a couple questions and walking away. 1.00

00:23:42.000 Trump knows that if she goes on TV for an extended period of time, it's going to hurt her really bad.

00:23:46.000 That's what he wants.

00:23:47.000 But I got to tell you, he's going to the front gates and banging on the door.

00:23:50.000 That's not how you get the job done.

00:23:52.000 And the diehard Trump supporters who are like, if Kyle Rittenhouse says a bad word of Trump, we are going to go at him and destroy him. 1.00

00:23:58.000 If Joe Rogan, we're going to insult him and call him stupid. 0.99

00:24:00.000 And none of these things are effective strategies. 0.99

00:24:02.000 It's become the MAGA Olympics, and it's a demoralization campaign to people who tune into it, you know, because they become struggle sessions.

00:24:09.000 And I get it.

00:24:10.000 We want to win and we want to change the country, make it better by pushing people away.

00:24:15.000 And the Krasnistins and other liberals jump on this in two seconds.

00:24:18.000 And it's not just the goof tweet of me endorsing RFK Jr., it's the attack on Trump supporters and Joe Rogan.

00:24:25.000 They're loving it.

00:24:27.000 They're going to go to every moderate who's not really political and say, do you see how Trump is attacking Joe Rogan?

00:24:33.000 Why would you do that to the largest podcaster in the world, the most successful famous Normie guy, who is telling the truth about all of these things?

00:24:42.000 It gives Trump— He calls out the lies.

00:24:43.000 It doesn't make sense.

00:24:44.000 And the thing is, Democrats are a very negative party in terms of messaging, just in my observation, right?

00:24:50.000 They're pretty good about keeping their infighting behind closed doors.

00:24:53.000 It doesn't always work, but for the most part, they're pretty good about demanding compliance.

00:24:57.000 Everyone votes the same way, whatever, when you get to Congress.

00:25:01.000 The best part of Trump's campaign to me, especially in sort of late 2023 and through the beginning of this year, was how positive it was in contrast to how negative Joe Biden's campaign was.

00:25:12.000 Joe Biden is doom and gloom.

00:25:14.000 Joe Biden is always referencing Charlottesville, which got debunked.

00:25:17.000 He's always talking about how divided we are.

00:25:19.000 He's always warning of political violence.

00:25:21.000 Harris has basically picked up the same rhetoric that he's a bad guy and I'm the good guy and here's what's going to happen.

00:25:26.000 But when you would see Trump speak, he would talk about, you know, things are tough right now, but they're going to get better and things are turning around.

00:25:33.000 And I think that that is something Democrats cannot leverage.

00:25:38.000 And to just become this party that fights within itself is a waste of time.

00:25:43.000 We're less than 90 days before the election.

00:25:45.000 If you can give the American people hope, I think you're in a much better position.

00:25:48.000 It's also much more natural messaging.

00:25:50.000 Let the Democrats be negative.

00:25:52.000 Let the Republicans do something else.

00:25:53.000 The left loves to exploit suffering.

00:25:55.000 Yeah.

00:25:55.000 All the time.

00:25:56.000 That's all Biden did.

00:25:57.000 His whole career has been- And fear.

00:25:58.000 And fear, right.

00:25:59.000 Fear and suffering.

00:26:01.000 With Trump, do you think there's any bit of him having a thin skin and knowing that Rogan has said, I don't want him on my show?

00:26:06.000 That he's kind of waiting?

00:26:07.000 Because it's like, when he says fake news, I think he also wants to be loved by those people.

00:26:07.000 I think part of it's his ego.

00:26:11.000 Of course.

00:26:12.000 He still wants the big networks to love him.

00:26:13.000 We know Trump.

00:26:14.000 I think he has an ego.

00:26:16.000 I think he, as much as he loves engaging with people and he's a great person, he's the same person you see on stage as he is behind closed doors, but he also wants to be loved also.

00:26:26.000 It's important to him.

00:26:26.000 I get it.

00:26:27.000 Especially since he grew up...

00:26:29.000 Kind of part of the mainstream media, right?

00:26:30.000 Like he owned the Miss America pageant.

00:26:32.000 He was the media's darling.

00:26:34.000 They loved him.

00:26:35.000 And that's another problem with what we're seeing, right?

00:26:38.000 This complete switch.

00:26:40.000 A month ago, this is the same media that was telling us Kamala Harris was so historically unpopular that Joe Biden was going to potentially need to replace her.

00:26:48.000 And now look what we're seeing?

00:26:49.000 The love for Kamala Harris could not be more inauthentic.

00:26:52.000 It is not real.

00:26:53.000 So I want to jump to this.

00:26:54.000 This is from Newsweek.

00:26:56.000 It's a similar story.

00:26:57.000 Conservative podcaster predicts Donald Trump headed for election loss.

00:27:00.000 Because I tweeted, you know, I think Trump is on track to lose right now.

00:27:05.000 There are things that have to turn around.

00:27:06.000 The pulling in of Kamala Harris has greatly benefited Democrats, and they've got shadow campaign plans, so we'll see what happens.

00:27:12.000 But it is this reaction that we're seeing from Trump-supporting diehards targeting independents, which is going to be a massive net negative for Trump, and I'll tell you why.

00:27:23.000 There are a lot of people who vote emotionally.

00:27:25.000 I would say the overwhelming majority.

00:27:27.000 Would you guys agree?

00:27:28.000 And what happens when there's some dude who's like, I don't know a whole lot about Trump, but I was into Joe Rogan.

00:27:35.000 That Fauci stuff's crazy.

00:27:36.000 Is that true?

00:27:37.000 Well, I don't want the Democrats to get back in. 1.00

00:27:39.000 And then some guy goes on Twitter and says, F you, you stupid, you know, moron. 1.00

00:27:43.000 And then he's going to be like, screw you! 1.00

00:27:44.000 I'll vote for Kamala! 1.00

00:27:46.000 Like, there's going to be a lot of people who literally do this because they're not smart and they don't care or they're spiteful.

00:27:51.000 So right now the strategy should be, I don't know, like building alliances and being the party that accepts.

00:27:58.000 I want to show you the aggregate polling right now.

00:28:02.000 Kamala Harris is up 0.5.

00:28:03.000 What do they say?

00:28:04.000 They say, this is not true.

00:28:06.000 Look at all these polls showing Kamala Harris winning.

00:28:09.000 And I hear from all the Trump supporters saying, it's fake polling.

00:28:11.000 We don't believe polls.

00:28:13.000 So when the polling was favorable for Trump, everyone believed it.

00:28:15.000 Now you don't?

00:28:16.000 We don't have to trust polls.

00:28:17.000 That's fine.

00:28:17.000 They were wrong in 2016, but that was eight years ago.

00:28:21.000 So the pollsters have changed.

00:28:23.000 If you don't want to believe me, if you do, entirely up to you.

00:28:26.000 How about we go betting odds?

00:28:28.000 I'm sorry, this is Battlegrounds.

00:28:29.000 Betting odds is here.

00:28:31.000 Kamala Harris is beating Donald Trump 50.4 to 48.1.

00:28:36.000 So in the betting odds with BetOnline, Betfair, Bovada, Bwin, Polymarket, Predicted, and Smarkets, Kamala Harris is ahead in I think all of them.

00:28:46.000 She's tied on Bwin and Bovada and she's winning every other one.

00:28:50.000 The one thing I can give Trump Is he's got 1.4% in the battleground states, which is tremendous, and that's where it really matters.

00:28:58.000 That's good news.

00:28:59.000 But you cannot ignore that you're seeing these polls.

00:29:03.000 You cannot ignore the betting odds.

00:29:04.000 These are people actually wagering money because they think Trump's going to lose.

00:29:08.000 And I'll leave and I'll lead off the opening segment with this.

00:29:12.000 This is the famous comic that has been shown time and time again.

00:29:15.000 It's a guy in the middle between the blue and the red, left and the right, saying, both sides make some good points.

00:29:20.000 The blue dude pushes him.

00:29:22.000 The red guy catches him and says, you all right?

00:29:24.000 And he goes, yeah, thanks.

00:29:25.000 And the Democrat blue guy says, why are you siding with the bad guys?

00:29:28.000 This was made, I think this is years old, to exemplify people like Colin Wright and Elon Musk finding themselves in alliance with Republicans and Trump supporters because the Democrats had lost their minds.

00:29:41.000 For what reason would Donald Trump's most ardent supporters decide to do the opposite and push people back to the Democrats?

00:29:49.000 This is the exact This meme exemplifies why so many people didn't want to be Democrat anymore. 1.00

00:29:55.000 So the response is, screw you, you're stupid, and F you anyway? 1.00

00:30:01.000 Well, if you want to lose, I guess. 1.00

00:30:03.000 They could add another frame and push him back, and then another frame of the person just... Yeah, put Cat Turd's face on the guy.

00:30:09.000 Just invert it, make the blue guy red, and then put Cat Turd's face on it, shoving him back to the Democrats.

00:30:16.000 This is the kind of stuff, attacking Joe Rogan, that results in people who may have been like, I guess I'll vote for Trump, to go, I'm not voting for any of these crackpots. 0.99

00:30:27.000 They're all crazy. 0.73

00:30:29.000 That's what I think the biggest problem for, you know, both politicians is right now that have people who are saying, I don't like either option.

00:30:36.000 And the voter looks a little bit different for a conservative versus Harris.

00:30:41.000 Harris has an issue because, you know, especially very pro-Palestine voters, those who are, you know, feel really strongly that Joe Biden has mishandled that issue.

00:30:50.000 They want her to call for an absolute ceasefire, right?

00:30:53.000 And to say no terms at all.

00:30:54.000 And that puts her in a very difficult position if they stand by that, which some of them won't.

00:30:58.000 Some of them will ultimately vote for the Democrat anyways.

00:31:00.000 But if there's enough that are saying we're sitting this one out or if RFK, you know, because I ultimately think that RFK Jr.

00:31:08.000 steals more Democrats than he does conservatives.

00:31:10.000 He's still stealing from both sides.

00:31:12.000 But I think it's more Democrats.

00:31:12.000 From both.

00:31:13.000 It's more Democrats.

00:31:14.000 Either way, if there are voters on the left that sit out for those reasons, the voters on the right will sit out because they're like, I don't know.

00:31:23.000 Everyone's fighting.

00:31:24.000 It doesn't matter.

00:31:25.000 Who cares?

00:31:25.000 The apathy is what really hurts people who might lean conservative.

00:31:29.000 I like what you said before about authenticity, though.

00:31:33.000 This is exactly what Americans are looking for.

00:31:35.000 They don't care about the name calling.

00:31:36.000 They don't care about the Twitter wars.

00:31:39.000 All of this is just noise.

00:31:40.000 And they care about everyday issues.

00:31:43.000 And Trump was doing a really good job, has always been authentic, but he was doing a really good job at focusing solely on the issues, how he's going to help your average American.

00:31:51.000 Like we were talking about, your average American doesn't even know how to interpret tweets.

00:31:55.000 or interpret things that we're posting on X.

00:31:57.000 So they definitely don't care about the back and forth and what celebrities are saying, right?

00:32:01.000 But they care how much they're paying for groceries. 0.91

00:32:01.000 So, yeah. 0.91

00:32:03.000 Exactly.

00:32:04.000 And that's, so I think with some of this, someone quoted a spokesperson from Trump campaign

00:32:09.000 who had said basically it's a sugar high.

00:32:10.000 That's why there's sort of this honeymoon stage.

00:32:12.000 There's such a big relief that Joe Biden is gone and whatever else, and some of this will simmer down.

00:32:17.000 But the other thing is, I think that the Trump campaign really needs to regain the news cycle.

00:32:20.000 They are always in the defensive position because Kamala announced her campaign and then she picked her VP and, like, she is sort of setting the cycle and they're responding.

00:32:28.000 And once they're able to pivot back to an offensive position, I think they'll be better off.

00:32:33.000 His prediction that by the fall, Joe Biden resigns from the presidency.

00:32:37.000 Kamala Harris gets a second honeymoon phase as president of the United States.

00:32:43.000 This spikes all of Trump's merchandise, which says 47.

00:32:46.000 Agenda 47.

00:32:47.000 She then is the 47th president.

00:32:50.000 Second honeymoon in October.

00:32:51.000 That's the October surprise.

00:32:53.000 I think that feels right.

00:32:54.000 I think the DNC will see her up at least five points.

00:32:56.000 Yeah, it'll be a romance period.

00:32:58.000 Here's a question.

00:32:59.000 Do you want to win?

00:32:59.000 I know the answer.

00:33:00.000 The answer is yes.

00:33:01.000 Okay.

00:33:02.000 Yeah, it'll be a romance period.

00:33:03.000 So, J.R. Williams, a TimCast member on YouTube says, Tim says, don't say weird, don't say tamp on Tim,

00:33:08.000 don't criticize Joe Rogan, don't question Tim.

00:33:10.000 Any other dictas, Tim?

00:33:12.000 Here's a question.

00:33:13.000 Do you want to win?

00:33:14.000 I know the answer, the answer is yes.

00:33:15.000 Okay, so let me ask you another question.

00:33:17.000 What is gained from saying someone is weird?

00:33:22.000 Honest question.

00:33:23.000 Is that going to convince large bloc, small bloc, medium bloc of voters?

00:33:28.000 What is gained by saying tampon Tim?

00:33:30.000 Well, as predicted, CBS ran a headline saying Republicans criticized Tim Walz for providing free menstrual products in schools.

00:33:38.000 They don't explain in the headline that it's for boys, but the average person's not going to read the story.

00:33:43.000 They're going to see the headline and say, that's a weird thing to criticize the guy for.

00:33:46.000 Hence, the name didn't really work.

00:33:48.000 I think Vivek Ramaswamy pointed this out.

00:33:50.000 Don't criticize Joe Rogan.

00:33:52.000 Joe Rogan has the largest podcast Likely the largest, or one of the largest in the world, where he speaks to people of all different political backgrounds, and you have the opportunity to make friends with him.

00:34:03.000 Right.

00:34:04.000 To gain some influence from him.

00:34:05.000 So the question then is, why would you want to put that at risk? 0.94

00:34:09.000 And it's fine to criticize Joe Rogan, but when he weakly says he likes RFK Jr., why attack him, call him a dumb blonde, insult him, say his show's not good? 0.95

00:34:20.000 That doesn't make any sense. 0.98

00:34:22.000 Kyle Rittenhouse, same thing.

00:34:25.000 Don't question—question everybody.

00:34:28.000 But the question really should be is, what is the purpose of the actions being taken?

00:34:32.000 Now, I'll tell you my opinion.

00:34:35.000 I don't align—I'm not a conservative.

00:34:38.000 And it's funny when Newsweek calls me a conservative, because it shows you that there's no center, because the media is only far left.

00:34:43.000 And anybody who doesn't align with the far left must be a conservative, which I'm not.

00:34:46.000 You're a MAGA podcaster, what do you mean?

00:34:48.000 Sure, I like Trump, I'm gonna vote for Trump, but it's only because of the truth.

00:34:52.000 And the truth is the media lied left and right about everything Trump has done, they smear him and manipulate him, and his policies are actually pretty good.

00:34:58.000 I even got Dave Smith to recognize some of his policies are pretty good, and he agreed with me, though he disagreed on a lot of other things.

00:35:04.000 So what is the strategy then?

00:35:05.000 We want middle-of-the-road people who aren't Trump's hardcore base, who are going to vote for him no matter what, to say, OK, I'll vote for Donald Trump. 0.97

00:35:13.000 Are you going to accomplish that by having a character called Cat Turd call Joe Rogan a dumb blonde? 0.95

00:35:19.000 Well, the answer is no.

00:35:20.000 You're not going to gain votes from doing it, so why do it?

00:35:22.000 By all means, you guys, you do whatever you want to do.

00:35:25.000 Don't listen to me.

00:35:26.000 What do I know?

00:35:27.000 I just think insulting people is going to cost you votes and not gain you votes.

00:35:34.000 And in response to Kyle Rittenhouse, People said, Kyle, we love you, we defended you, we supported you.

00:35:40.000 Let's do a conversation, make a podcast about this so we can convince all the people that Trump is the right choice.

00:35:45.000 Then you would have had Kyle Rittenhouse with 2 million followers on with one of Trump's campaign members on a show, any show, where Trump's going to have a lawyer or Trump Jr.

00:35:54.000 or someone saying, trust us, we're going to do all the things you want to do.

00:35:58.000 And then it would have been a massive net positive.

00:36:00.000 Instead, they attack and insult. 0.81

00:36:02.000 The left immediately picks up all the attacks on Kyle Rittenhouse and says, Trump supporters are an occult, and they're weird, and they're mean to people.

00:36:08.000 And then regular people who don't follow go, wow, they were mean to people.

00:36:11.000 That is very mean.

00:36:12.000 Then Joe Rogan.

00:36:14.000 Same strategy.

00:36:15.000 You can hate Joe Rogan, you can hate Kyle Rittenhouse, you can call him whatever you want to call him, but I tell you this, you'll lose votes from doing it.

00:36:20.000 I think the tampon thing, I mean, it's funny, but it's an obvious retaliation to the couch and van stuff.

00:36:28.000 Well, so the horse thing.

00:36:29.000 That too, the horse thing.

00:36:31.000 Are those going to earn votes?

00:36:33.000 Honestly, no.

00:36:34.000 I want to attack Walz's lockdown measures, the hotline.

00:36:34.000 I don't.

00:36:39.000 Like, that stuff is insane.

00:36:40.000 Back to the fear and suffering.

00:36:41.000 Remind people what these people did to you just four years ago and destroy that. 0.90

00:36:45.000 The other stuff, I mean, it's silly.

00:36:47.000 Well, I think we could still talk about tampons.

00:36:48.000 Like, as a female, I want to talk about the issue.

00:36:50.000 I think it's disgusting and disturbing that he wanted tampons in men's bathrooms because of what they're trying to do.

00:36:57.000 It says so much about his ideology.

00:36:58.000 Like, when people hear, oh, he's tamponting, he put, you know, tampons in public schools, there are some people who will say, like, that's good.

00:37:05.000 There are young girls who this is a big distraction.

00:37:07.000 I mean, I would have loved that.

00:37:08.000 Free tampons.

00:37:08.000 Right, right.

00:37:10.000 That's not what he did.

00:37:11.000 He wasn't in service of women.

00:37:13.000 He was in service of gender ideology. 0.70

00:37:16.000 We can talk about the tampons, but we want to talk about the issues. 0.97

00:37:20.000 This is a guy that wants to mutilate children's private parts.

00:37:24.000 That's where we should be going. 0.71

00:37:25.000 That's the language I want.

00:37:26.000 You say exactly what this guy wants to do.

00:37:29.000 He literally wants to mutilate your children.

00:37:30.000 He thinks pornography should be in schools. 0.98

00:37:32.000 And put you away.

00:37:34.000 And I agree with that.

00:37:35.000 I would say, however, for a lot of people, that that comes off as not true.

00:37:39.000 And this has probably happened to you, I'd imagine, where you say, you do know this guy's in favor of, you know, insert cause, and they go, that's not true.

00:37:39.000 Right.

00:37:45.000 I don't believe that. 0.99

00:37:46.000 Well, that's why I'm going to use your truth serum from the theory from earlier to shit in your brain and be like, this is true. 0.98

00:37:50.000 I still think that works better than these hashtags. 0.98

00:37:53.000 Completely agree.

00:37:54.000 Because that's all it is, right?

00:37:55.000 You're saying, you're asking the question, why do we do this?

00:37:57.000 Why is tampon tam-a-thing?

00:37:59.000 What does that mean as a meme to a voter who's unsure? 0.69

00:38:04.000 And a lot of people are like, if you're not sure now, then you know, oh, you're crazy or whatever.

00:38:09.000 They have panels, they have these focus groups all the time where there are people being like, I don't know, I don't follow the news.

00:38:16.000 And if you go to one of these guys and he's just like a regular, he works all day, he's a carpenter, he's gonna be like, I don't really follow the news.

00:38:23.000 I like what Trump says sometimes, but he's kind of mean.

00:38:25.000 And then you said to him, what does tampon Tim mean to you?

00:38:28.000 He's gonna go, huh?

00:38:30.000 And if you said to him, are you concerned about child sex changes?

00:38:33.000 He's gonna go, huh?

00:38:35.000 Right.

00:38:36.000 And if you said, have you checked your grocery bill lately? 0.98

00:38:38.000 He's gonna go, it's ridiculous, outrageous! 0.63

00:38:41.000 And then you say, who's currently in the White House? 0.84

00:38:44.000 He's gonna go, it's Biden and Kamala.

00:38:45.000 And be like, I don't know, maybe Trump's a better choice.

00:38:48.000 We can give that a shot, right?

00:38:49.000 He'll go, yeah, probably a better choice.

00:38:51.000 That is gonna earn you votes.

00:38:52.000 But you know, but look, don't listen to me.

00:38:53.000 I don't care.

00:38:54.000 Just do whatever you guys want.

00:38:55.000 And then if Trump wins or loses, what do I know?

00:38:57.000 Am I wrong in thinking some of these nicknames and memes and stuff should just happen organically?

00:39:01.000 Some of it all feels... And this is true of the Harris campaign too.

00:39:05.000 Some of it feels so forced that it's like...

00:39:08.000 It's not having the impact they want because it's just kind of cringe.

00:39:11.000 Imagine the Trump campaign didn't fire back.

00:39:13.000 So they're putting this couch theory out that J.D. 0.98

00:39:16.000 Vance had sexual intercourse with a couch. 0.91

00:39:18.000 They're coming up with all these slogans. 0.99

00:39:19.000 They're attacking the MAGA movement.

00:39:21.000 The weird thing, which was the same deplorable tactic, the ultra ultra MAGA, as if that's an insult to anyone, right?

00:39:29.000 What if the Trump campaign just didn't even respond?

00:39:31.000 What if we just stuck to the memes that basically show someone trying to fill up their gas tank or the videos that show you reordering your groceries?

00:39:40.000 Or she announces Waltz and he just tweets, who?

00:39:43.000 There are so many simple things that we could do.

00:39:47.000 Waltz who is a great nickname. 0.97

00:39:49.000 Honestly.

00:39:50.000 There's better ones.

00:39:52.000 I think Trump knows it better than everybody.

00:39:54.000 He didn't, what did he say?

00:39:55.000 Lil Marco.

00:39:57.000 Timmy, I'm telling you.

00:39:58.000 He didn't say murderous Marco.

00:40:00.000 He didn't say Marco, the man who maraudered.

00:40:04.000 He just said Lil.

00:40:06.000 And it works.

00:40:07.000 Low energy.

00:40:08.000 These are identifiers.

00:40:10.000 They're very, very simple and easy to understand for the average person without knowing a lot about news.

00:40:14.000 So you want to think about that with Tim Waltz or Kamala Harris.

00:40:17.000 Crooked Kamala.

00:40:18.000 We're done.

00:40:19.000 Cackling Kamala.

00:40:20.000 Yeah, but crooked scares people.

00:40:22.000 Cackling is annoying.

00:40:24.000 If you don't hear her talking or painting the news, you'd be like, well, but if they call her crooked.

00:40:27.000 But these are the people that we're talking about that watch Joe Rogan's podcast again, right?

00:40:33.000 To go back to that.

00:40:34.000 And these are the exact people you don't want to alienate.

00:40:36.000 We just had a viral clip of Joe Rogan saying, Kamala Harris was the least popular vice president in history, and then he goes like this, and in a moment, with his hands, he's like, everyone just loves her and she's the greatest savior of the Democratic Party.

00:40:48.000 The response should have immediately been, wow, Joe, he's so smart.

00:40:52.000 Man, watching him, you guys are being real smart too.

00:40:56.000 And then the regular people are going to be like, yeah, Joe was ragging on Kamala, that's for sure.

00:41:00.000 What do you think these people are going to do?

00:41:02.000 If Joe is throwing you Like, he's throwing you these layups, and then you don't take the opportunity and you swat them away?

00:41:11.000 You're not gonna score any baskets?

00:41:12.000 When someone asked me about Kamala a few weeks ago, I sent him a Jorokin clip because it was the one where he has the guest on talking about her refusing to give DNA evidence to get a free guy out of jail.

00:41:21.000 I'm like, well here's a good example of why she's evil. 1.00

00:41:24.000 You know, like, there's things that he said that you could use to help build your case against her.

00:41:29.000 There's a ton out there that he's said.

00:41:32.000 I don't know why we're not digging into that.

00:41:35.000 I think because a lot of it is Twitter's been monetized and people get more off of the hate and doing these little phrases.

00:41:42.000 I think that some of the Trump ultra diehards are really scared Trump's going to lose.

00:41:47.000 Yeah, I think they actually know some of these polls are correct.

00:41:51.000 I think they're aware this polling is real, and they're sitting there kind of scared.

00:41:56.000 I mean, maybe, maybe not.

00:41:57.000 Maybe they're worried some of them might be, but I think Trump holding a press conference and addressing this specifically, talking about Kamala Harris shows, internally they have concerns about Kamala running a basement campaign and generating tons of support from celebrities, getting bumped in the polls and the betting markets, prediction markets.

00:42:16.000 Trump's campaign is concerned about this.

00:42:17.000 Like you said, Hannah Clare, they're trying to get the news cycle back and having a hard time.

00:42:21.000 It's hard because, you know, it's going to take something that is really disruptive, like I mean, I can't even think of anything, and I don't want to be too doom and gloom, but, you know, if there were suddenly a natural disaster or something that everyone, both sides, have to say, we're putting down whatever we're working on.

00:42:38.000 But don't you think that should have been the assassination?

00:42:40.000 Well, it was.

00:42:41.000 And conservatives dominated news cycles.

00:42:44.000 It was definitely liberal-leaning mainstream media that was responding to it.

00:42:48.000 Then we went into the RNC and there were all these really strong images of Trump, I mean, coming out with his ear bandage.

00:42:53.000 They announced J.D.

00:42:54.000 Vance.

00:42:54.000 It was just hit after hit after hit, which is like the only thing that I think ultimately tips the scales to get Joe Biden to drop out.

00:43:02.000 And that was how they, you know, regain the news cycles.

00:43:04.000 But they're, like you pointed out earlier, they've got Kamala's in, we've got our multi-state tour right now where they're saying nothing, and then they announce Walz, and then we go to DNC, and then they have sort of ended their automatic hold on the news cycle.

00:43:19.000 These major events that basically establish a campaign have ended for both teams.

00:43:24.000 And that's when it comes back to policy.

00:43:24.000 Right.

00:43:26.000 I think if you can shift the narrative now back to policy, that would be even better.

00:43:30.000 But there is a chance that after the DNC, it becomes much easier to see sort of how these two are leveling out against each other.

00:43:36.000 So we got this story.

00:43:37.000 Let's jump to this one from SCNR.

00:43:38.000 Governor Glenn Youngkin signs election security order.

00:43:42.000 Directive ensures only paper ballots are used and no counting machines are internet connected.

00:43:47.000 So it's not, my understanding, it's not going to be all paper ballots?

00:43:50.000 Oh no, it says.

00:43:51.000 Yeah, it says.

00:43:52.000 Notably, under Executive 35, Young can direct state election officials to ensure that only paper ballots are used in Virginia and are retained for 22 months after each election.

00:44:00.000 Additionally, the Commissioner of the Department of Elections is required to ensure there is a documented chain of custody for paper ballots and a daily reconciliation process during early voting.

00:44:08.000 During the early voting period on Election Day, ballots must be reconciled against the number of voters checked into the polling location and against the number of ballots that were mailed to voters.

00:44:15.000 The state is also prohibited from sending out an absentee ballot unless it has been requested by a registered voter before being mailed.

00:44:22.000 Completed absentee ballots may not be counted until the last four digits of the voter's social security number and year of birth on the envelope are matched to the voter's record file.

00:44:29.000 How much do you want to bet Virginia goes heavy red?

00:44:32.000 Gonna happen.

00:44:33.000 It's gonna be like plus seven red?

00:44:35.000 What do you mean?

00:44:35.000 Probably.

00:44:36.000 You don't want illegals and dead people voting in elections? 1.00

00:44:39.000 Or just the ballot harvesting.

00:44:41.000 Yeah.

00:44:42.000 So with paper ballots, you know, on these locations, Democrats, outside of whether they... I think we are seeing...

00:44:51.000 With the work permits, a real risk that people are going to accidentally register illegal immigrants.

00:44:56.000 For sure.

00:44:57.000 But, even outside of that, nursing homes.

00:45:00.000 Famously, Democrats going to nursing homes, and these elderly people who are just like, I don't know what you're talking about, and they're like, just fill it out, just fill it out. 0.98

00:45:06.000 James O'Keefe had the video of all this stuff.

00:45:09.000 With this policy, should this succeed in the courts?

00:45:09.000 They do this.

00:45:14.000 Because I bet Democrats are going to sue him to oblivion.

00:45:17.000 But he's playing for DHS over here, you know why?

00:45:20.000 What he's doing at the executive level with the elections, Republicans challenged Democrats doing the same thing in 2020, and the court said no standing.

00:45:27.000 Let's see if the courts in Virginia say the same thing.

00:45:27.000 Right.

00:45:30.000 I wouldn't be surprised if like, nah, you're Republican, so you lose instantly.

00:45:33.000 But that being said, only paper ballots?

00:45:36.000 I'm willing to bet the whole state just read across the board.

00:45:40.000 I think there's a good chance.

00:45:41.000 In more places.

00:45:42.000 Yeah.

00:45:43.000 Are there other states that have a similar initiative in place right now?

00:45:46.000 I'm trying to think.

00:45:48.000 Not that I've heard of, but they should be.

00:45:50.000 Come on, governors.

00:45:52.000 There is time.

00:45:53.000 I don't want to speak incorrectly.

00:45:54.000 I think some states are in the works of making this.

00:45:58.000 Because that would be interesting.

00:45:59.000 I would like it to be set up so that there are several states doing this so we can really test this out.

00:46:04.000 I mean, will states that have paper ballots like this see a notably different result than years past than to states neighboring them?

00:46:16.000 Right, right.

00:46:17.000 It's going to be hard to tell, too, since this election is, you know, the last election of the United States since it's been billed.

00:46:23.000 So it could be just a higher turnout than usual.

00:46:25.000 They always say that, though.

00:46:26.000 This is the thing about this dramatic messaging.

00:46:28.000 I just get so tired of it.

00:46:29.000 Like, oh, it's the last one.

00:46:30.000 2012 was the last one.

00:46:32.000 OK, then why did I vote later?

00:46:34.000 Because Democrats didn't accept 2016 and Republicans didn't accept 2020.

00:46:39.000 So the last election we had was 2012.

00:46:42.000 And that's where people were like, oh, wow, look at that, Obama won.

00:46:45.000 There you go.

00:46:46.000 When do we get back to a place where we disagree?

00:46:48.000 I don't think that's possible.

00:46:50.000 I agree with you.

00:46:51.000 I think as people get older, the younger generations are polarized all the same.

00:46:55.000 And I've said this time and time again, the only reason the country isn't completely ripped to shreds is because Gen Xers, Boomers, and Silent Generation have lower rates of polarization. 0.76

00:47:04.000 Once the silent generation ages out, passes on, then you're going to have the next generation moving in. 0.99

00:47:08.000 Polarization will become more pronounced.

00:47:10.000 By the time it's when Gen Xers are in their 70s, Millennials are going to be in their 50s and 60s. 0.55

00:47:16.000 You are going to have hyper bipartisanship.

00:47:19.000 Geographic country will be absolutely split and irreparably. 0.98

00:47:23.000 Like, you literally have people who want to sterilize and chop off kids' junk, OK? 0.89

00:47:28.000 There's no reconciling the political values between these people. 0.98

00:47:31.000 Right.

00:47:32.000 I think there are some issues.

00:47:33.000 So, you.

00:47:34.000 I was just going to say, I think there is a way to have these conversations, though.

00:47:37.000 I think there's a way to have these hard conversations and come to some common sense, common ground, because believe it or not, we actually would agree on most of these issues.

00:47:47.000 But you have the extremists, I think, that are making the most noise.

00:47:50.000 What's hard though, I have two kids, third on the way, maybe any minute now.

00:47:55.000 So I might run out of here, but we'll see.

00:47:57.000 That's why I watch your show every night in August so we have to see you run out.

00:48:00.000 When you meet other parents who believe in the mutilation stuff and giving your kids all these things.

00:48:07.000 There's no coming together.

00:48:09.000 But you know where it starts?

00:48:11.000 It starts with what Tim said, these young generations.

00:48:13.000 It starts with Gen Zers right now who, by the way, they are furious with what's happening. 1.00

00:48:19.000 They want God.

00:48:21.000 They want faith as a centerpiece.

00:48:22.000 They want to invest in the family unit once again.

00:48:25.000 They want to have less fatherless households.

00:48:28.000 Right.

00:48:28.000 So it's a combination of things, all of those centerpieces, right?

00:48:33.000 So that's good for the future.

00:48:34.000 Right.

00:48:36.000 The immediate future with the parents now, you know, they are raising other kids who are going to grow up to be... Who knows how they're going to vote, but they're legitimately... Immediate future?

00:48:45.000 Scary.

00:48:46.000 What Tim was saying, you know, when millennials are in their 50s and 60s, I think there's still hope before we get there.

00:48:52.000 I agree.

00:48:54.000 To see how this next generation coming up behind mine is willing to have these conversations.

00:48:59.000 And I think there are some cultural shifts on issues that are more ambiguous, like, you know, each side will say, oh,

00:49:06.000 this is our issue, but people feel differently.

00:49:09.000 Like, I think with crime in the US, there actually are lots of moderate, maybe lean

00:49:11.000 left people who are starting to say, like, maybe the border is slay word.

00:49:14.000 Or the one that I think of a lot is the marijuana issue, right?

00:49:17.000 Like, we as a country have radically shifted our position on marijuana, both for medical

00:49:22.000 use and recreationally.

00:49:24.000 And part of it is because we, I think especially the youngest generation, but we look at it differently than older generations.

00:49:31.000 Like, if you talk to younger people about it, they're like, but then why is alcohol allowed when marijuana isn't?

00:49:38.000 And, you know, this one's addictive.

00:49:39.000 And, you know, there's a bigger conversation.

00:49:41.000 Not to mention that people are now starting to say, like, we should research marijuana and see what its effects are for, you know, potential treatment.

00:49:47.000 I think some of these cultural changes that are actually happening on both sides, there are some issues that stop being like, you're for this and we're against it.

00:49:54.000 There are some that actually these generations have in common.

00:49:56.000 Well, you guys might disagree, but I think one of those issues is actually abortion.

00:50:01.000 I might get canceled for saying this, but I have a lot of girlfriends in New York, contemporaries, peers, colleagues that are female, and they have felt for so long like we are being a race.

00:50:12.000 We're not allowed to be a conservative.

00:50:14.000 We don't belong to either party because of those beliefs.

00:50:17.000 But when you're actually paying attention to Donald Trump's policy and how moderate he really is on abortion, a lot of my girlfriends are pro-choice.

00:50:25.000 And it's really hard.

00:50:26.000 It was really hard for a while to convince women that you have a space in this.

00:50:30.000 And that's where Trump loses me is I wish he was harder on it.

00:50:33.000 As someone who's gone super pro-life after a long time of pro-choice.

00:50:38.000 But like, I still want to vote for him.

00:50:39.000 Right.

00:50:40.000 Although it's not making it easier for me.

00:50:43.000 Easy for me because I really disagree with that.

00:50:45.000 And that is really important.

00:50:46.000 But there's a coalition of pro-life Democrats who say, why does this have to be a plank in our central platform?

00:50:54.000 It's interesting because there are people who do not line up on either issue.

00:50:57.000 The other one that I'm thinking about is the environment.

00:51:00.000 The left is always saying the environment is our issue, but have you ever talked to a farmer?

00:51:04.000 They have a lot at stake with the environment.

00:51:07.000 I bet that they feel really strongly about it.

00:51:09.000 They just don't conclude what you conclude, which is that it needs to be regulated at the federal level and certain things need to happen.

00:51:15.000 It was a Republican that gave us the national parks, the state parks already, and Nixon did EPA, which I don't agree with, but the left loves, you know?

00:51:22.000 Right, but for some reason it's always billed as like a left issue.

00:51:25.000 Only the lefts are interested in the environment.

00:51:27.000 They have a certain bent on how they want to handle the environment, but I don't think that's true.

00:51:31.000 I think there are lots of, especially rural Americans, who care very deeply about preserving the natural beauty of this country and the natural resources.

00:51:37.000 Right, right.

00:51:37.000 I think another one is all the bigs, right?

00:51:39.000 Big tech, big pharma, big government.

00:51:42.000 I think you're seeing people from both sides of the aisle asking questions. That's why a lot of people who are disaffected

00:51:47.000 left are going for RFK Jr.

00:51:49.000 But like there are so many people I grew up with who are leftist or liberal who are against big

00:51:54.000 pharma like I always thought I always was but it stopped at COVID because then all of a sudden

00:51:58.000 they became we got to do all this you know we love Pfizer.

00:52:02.000 But I think there's still a good amount of Americans out there that are starting to question

00:52:06.000 the status quo.

00:52:07.000 They're starting to question what they've been told.

00:52:10.000 And that's happening on both sides.

00:52:11.000 So it's becoming less of a Republican or Democrat issue.

00:52:14.000 These are just people, like human race issues now.

00:52:17.000 When you look at polling on civics, economics, independence, along with Republicans 2-1.

00:52:25.000 Democrats for some reason think the economy is good.

00:52:28.000 Probably because they're watching MSNBC and they're being told everything is fine, go back to sleep.

00:52:31.000 Or because they're Hollyweird liberals and they'll always be fine.

00:52:34.000 No, but these are all general Democrats.

00:52:36.000 These are people living in cities.

00:52:37.000 What could possibly make them think the economy is good?

00:52:40.000 I honestly don't know.

00:52:42.000 Young people can't afford to live anywhere, they can't buy houses, they can't start families. 1.00

00:52:45.000 I wonder how many have children.

00:52:47.000 You know, like if there's some people...

00:52:48.000 Well, look at the fertility rates.

00:52:49.000 That's probably it.

00:52:50.000 There's a lot of...

00:52:51.000 We talk about the restroom thing, how that's changed.

00:52:53.000 I think a lot of people who don't have children aren't really truly seeing how bad it is.

00:52:58.000 Of course not.

00:52:59.000 There you go.

00:53:00.000 Independence with kids are going, the economy sucks right now.

00:53:02.000 And liberals and Democrats who largely are having less kids are like, everything's fine. 0.98

00:53:06.000 Are we allowed to call them white women that are cat ladies? 1.00

00:53:09.000 I don't know if we're allowed to say that anymore.

00:53:12.000 But yeah, these single females that are living in big blue cities, of course they think everything's fine. 0.99

00:53:17.000 Yeah, why wouldn't they?

00:53:19.000 They have no plans to get into a serious relationship or start a family or any of these core values that made our country great.

00:53:28.000 Well, and they don't have to do things like plan for someone else's future, right?

00:53:31.000 When you have that kind of responsibility and part of that is financial, as well as whatever else, it feels extremely different.

00:53:38.000 I think it's really common for people to adjust to inflation, right?

00:53:43.000 To get used to paying more.

00:53:45.000 So if you're only paying more for yourself, like, it's annoying, it's expensive, but you adjust.

00:53:49.000 When you're like, no, it's really hurting us every time half of our household doesn't have an income, aka their children, you know, this is tough, we don't like it.

00:53:57.000 I think it's just a different mindset that you aren't in unless you're in it.

00:54:03.000 Because you have to feed and clothe other people who are fully dependent on you.

00:54:08.000 It's also just not part of their future plan, right?

00:54:11.000 I have a lot of single friends right now, but we're all worried because that's our future plan.

00:54:16.000 First of all, it's how am I going to find a man and all this sea of soyboys out there, so that's number one issue that we're worried about. 1.00

00:54:22.000 Good name for your book, The Sea of Soyboys.

00:54:24.000 Oh, I could definitely write a few novels on that.

00:54:27.000 And then number two, how are we eventually going to buy a home?

00:54:31.000 How are we going to start a family?

00:54:32.000 When was the last time an entire generation was fearful that they won't be able to buy a home?

00:54:36.000 An entire generation coming out with more degrees on paper, but zero life skills and zero chance at the American dream.

00:54:43.000 So it's also that they're not looking at the future, and that's why the economy collapsing is not a worry.

00:54:48.000 Do you think they were prepared for the future?

00:54:51.000 I'm thinking about this because I wrote today about Alabama has this law that's going to affect where there's like 1,800 third graders who might have to repeat the year because they don't reach a certain literacy standard that just got implemented.

00:55:04.000 Classic America. 0.50

00:55:05.000 I was kind of researching.

00:55:06.000 Well, they're trying to do something about it, which I appreciate, you know?

00:55:09.000 But one of the things I was reading about when I was writing this was that they have instituted a mandatory personal finance course for High schoolers in Alabama.

00:55:19.000 And I think that's interesting, right?

00:55:20.000 If you learned about how taxes work, how saving works, what credit card debt can do to you in high school, you would probably react differently.

00:55:28.000 So often I hear from my single friends or my friends who are just, you know, married, but they don't have kids yet.

00:55:32.000 Like, oh, well, we'll just deal with this later.

00:55:34.000 When you have kids, there's kind of no later.

00:55:37.000 Oh, my poor mother. 0.99

00:55:39.000 She would be ecstatic if she knew this is what they were teaching, because they were not teaching this when I was in high school, and I call her every time I need to do my taxes, and I have all these silly math questions, and she's Canadian, so she just doesn't understand the system here. 0.99

00:55:52.000 What part of Canada is she from?

00:55:53.000 Born in Montreal, raised in Toronto.

00:55:55.000 A lot of my family's still there.

00:55:57.000 My family's from Newfoundland.

00:55:58.000 I mean, we have different issues that we don't agree on with that side of the family, but the education system here in America, no, I don't think most Americans are educated enough to understand financial planning, let alone what it actually takes to save up enough money to buy a home, buy a car, provide, right?

00:56:19.000 Honestly, that's hopeful.

00:56:20.000 But then we say, you're 18, you must go to college, otherwise your life will fall apart.

00:56:24.000 Sign here on this line.

00:56:25.000 Biggest mistake I've made so far, yeah.

00:56:26.000 Huge amounts of debt. 0.97

00:56:27.000 Be a slave. 0.77

00:56:28.000 It's crazy. 1.00

00:56:29.000 Be a slave.

00:56:31.000 If you're not being taught basic financial literacy, Why would you?

00:56:35.000 No one should let you take out these loans! 1.00

00:56:37.000 I think it's by design that they don't teach financial literacy.

00:56:39.000 Of course, all of this is by design.

00:56:40.000 It's all meant to brainwash and distract us from what matters, but that's why I have hope right now with this young generation, right?

00:56:46.000 I'm a millennial, but this Gen Z generation coming up behind me, Like I was alluding to before, I think they're redefining the answer to that question, what matters? 0.99

00:56:55.000 And what is that?

00:56:56.000 It is starting a family.

00:56:58.000 It's connecting with another soul.

00:56:59.000 It's spirituality.

00:57:00.000 It's your health.

00:57:00.000 It's escaping that nine-to-five matrix.

00:57:04.000 And this education system is also something they're starting to question, right?

00:57:07.000 Everything that we've been told.

00:57:09.000 So that really gives me hope.

00:57:11.000 Imagine growing up in a household where your parents are literally telling you, you have 12 years to live because the sun, the sky, like with the, I forgot what that movement was called, the sunrise movement.

00:57:21.000 They had their children holding a banner that said, we have 12 years to live.

00:57:25.000 That's a death cult.

00:57:26.000 That's scaring your children.

00:57:27.000 So either they're going to lean into that and join the cult or they're going to push back.

00:57:32.000 And I do see a lot of that.

00:57:33.000 I say, you know, even in New York where I'm from here now, but I see a lot of people in New York who are younger than me or my age.

00:57:39.000 I'm moving here now.

00:57:40.000 It's awesome here.

00:57:41.000 It's great.

00:57:41.000 It's free here.

00:57:42.000 I saw 20 farms I'm in.

00:57:43.000 Sign me up.

00:57:44.000 There's a lot of cows.

00:57:45.000 Find me a cowboy.

00:57:46.000 Nothing is open after, like, what, 9 o'clock?

00:57:48.000 Well, yeah, you should be home with your family by the hand of Claire.

00:57:50.000 That's so true!

00:57:51.000 There's no wilding for the young.

00:57:53.000 Let's jump to this next story from SCNR.

00:57:55.000 We have this ActBlue changes donation procedures after Texas AG investigation.

00:58:00.000 Following money laundering allegations, Democratic fundraising platform now requires credit card CVV codes.

00:58:07.000 Will that put an end to the weird instances where little old ladies were donating 57 times per day? 0.99

00:58:13.000 I don't know.

00:58:15.000 Maybe, maybe not.

00:58:16.000 But certainly something was going on.

00:58:18.000 Now, I bring this one up because we talked about the paper ballot only scenario with the executive order in Virginia.

00:58:25.000 The question is, is enough being done with these moves or is it too little too late?

00:58:30.000 I mean, we're what?

00:58:31.000 Three months out from the election?

00:58:33.000 This is how I look at it.

00:58:34.000 If anyone out there believes that election interference or the manipulation by the left or any of this election interference is insurmountable, that's just not true.

00:58:46.000 And again, what wins elections is involving your community, registering a friend, registering a family member, chasing those ballots, making sure that ballots actually make it to the ballot boxes.

00:58:56.000 So I think A lot of this worry is also just a distraction and noise.

00:59:01.000 I'm not sure how much we should be focusing on that.

00:59:04.000 I also think Act Blue is evil.

00:59:06.000 I'd just like to say that during lockdowns and the riots, Act Blue was managed by Susan Rosenberg and 1,000 Currents.

00:59:13.000 Susan Rosenberg is a domestic Marxist terrorist, part of the Weather Underground, who became a professor when she was pardoned on Bill Clinton's last day in office. 0.96

00:59:22.000 Crazy how that happens to the Weather Underground.

00:59:24.000 She helped, you know, because Act Blue was able to use 1,000 Currents' non-tax-exempt status to get these funds.

00:59:33.000 So it's a very strange relationship they had, and she's an evil person, that was funding BLM, which was a lot like the Weather Underground, in my opinion.

00:59:42.000 So, I don't like it.

00:59:43.000 I love the whisper.

00:59:45.000 But, you know, that aside.

00:59:47.000 That aside.

00:59:48.000 Is enough being done to circumvent any kind of shadow campaign, or are Republicans going to step in it again this time?

00:59:53.000 They could very well step in it again.

00:59:56.000 I keep thinking about the Time magazine.

00:59:57.000 I don't think enough's been done in general, but Is it too late?

01:00:01.000 I mean, I think it's not.

01:00:03.000 Look at what Glenn Lincoln's doing, right?

01:00:05.000 Right.

01:00:05.000 That is great.

01:00:06.000 That matters now.

01:00:06.000 Are we going to see all the red states do this?

01:00:08.000 They should.

01:00:09.000 Swing states that have red legislatures should be passing this right now.

01:00:13.000 That's the thing that's tough with the left is that they are just a monolith for the most part.

01:00:17.000 They have their issues.

01:00:17.000 Obviously, you know, BLM has problems with Kamala being installed the way she was.

01:00:22.000 But for the most part, they're a monolith and the right is not.

01:00:27.000 And it's going to be tough to beat something like that.

01:00:29.000 Hence the don't make enemies of moderates.

01:00:31.000 Right.

01:00:32.000 Democrats are marching in lockstep.

01:00:34.000 Democrats, registered Democrats outnumber Republicans as of 2022 by about 12 million registered voters.

01:00:41.000 The Republican Party is a lot smaller.

01:00:43.000 That's why when you look at the polling, you see that independents side with Republicans two to one on most issues.

01:00:50.000 Republicans rely on independents to defeat the Democratic cult.

01:00:54.000 So when you're alienating those independents, I mean, what are we asking for here?

01:00:58.000 And I think I was reminding people of all this.

01:01:01.000 I'm sure a lot of us were.

01:01:02.000 When Biden was collapsing after that debate, everyone was so excited.

01:01:07.000 The conservatives were on fire, right?

01:01:10.000 But when you were sitting back to analyze things, you knew Democrats are way too heavily calculated.

01:01:18.000 There's no way they don't have a plan here.

01:01:19.000 I was reminding people of the stats.

01:01:23.000 And now look, this was all heavily calculated.

01:01:25.000 They had a plan all along.

01:01:27.000 I think they trotted him out there knowing that he would fail.

01:01:30.000 No, I think there's infighting.

01:01:32.000 I think that there are a lot of people who wanted him to step away a long time ago, said he promised to be a one-term president, and then he was like, just kidding, I'm running again!

01:01:39.000 And so they couldn't get him out.

01:01:41.000 I think when he failed on the debate stage, they were like, now is our chance, pressure campaign.

01:01:46.000 You'll see Nancy Pelosi deny this, right?

01:01:48.000 didn't make any calls. I didn't talk to anybody, not even Chuck

01:01:51.000 Schumer. But then suddenly, Joe Biden has left the election kind

01:01:55.000 of at the most perfect time when they need him to most when Trump

01:01:57.000 has all of this positive for press post RNC and post assassination attempt.

01:02:02.000 What if the October surprise was Kamala Harris announcing that

01:02:06.000 for the past, you know, 18 months, she had been involved in an investigation over the criminal actions of Joe Biden,

01:02:11.000 and that she was unable to speak publicly about his mental state

01:02:15.000 because of the investigation and the risk of compromising it, but

01:02:18.000 you can now say that he is a criminal and he will be criminally charged and she is stepping in as president and

01:02:23.000 then she comes out all these documents proving crimes. Like

01:02:25.000 what if that was the October surprise?

01:02:26.000 I would say kudos, but still sound like a prosecutor.

01:02:29.000 No, I wouldn't, because she was aware the whole time, and she allowed him to be present.

01:02:33.000 She didn't step up.

01:02:33.000 This is not enough.

01:02:34.000 Well, that's why she says, because of the investigation.

01:02:36.000 No, it's not enough, man.

01:02:37.000 Vivek mentioned that calling her a prosecutor makes her sound good on crime.

01:02:41.000 So when people say that she was a prosecutor who kept people in jail, all you're saying is she's tough on crime.

01:02:46.000 It's funny, because I'm thinking about it the way I used to think about it when I considered myself liberal in terms of prison reform, and the way she was throwing all these people in jail using the prison, the crime bill that Biden helped write in the 90s, you know?

01:02:57.000 No, no, because I'm a nerd watching the same video from 1993 on YouTube when Biden's talking about, you know, these people and she's calling them supervisors.

01:03:03.000 We just need to play that clip of Tulsi, like taking her task for this in 2020 over and over and over again.

01:03:10.000 On the debate stage.

01:03:11.000 Yeah, because I also think progressives have a long memory and they're not going to forget some of that.

01:03:14.000 But that's primary stuff.

01:03:16.000 That destroyed her in the primary.

01:03:18.000 If you go on stage and say she was locking up criminals beyond their time or whatever, they're going to be like, wow, she's a tough on crime candidate.

01:03:24.000 No, I think the weird thing about Kamala's campaign right now is that she didn't primary.

01:03:28.000 So she does have all the support, like she doesn't need to primary and get votes. 1.00

01:03:31.000 On the other hand, it does not actually mean she has complete support from the grassroots Democrats, right?

01:03:36.000 She has institutional support.

01:03:37.000 The media is behind her.

01:03:39.000 Every congressional Democrat, every governor was like, yep, you're the gal.

01:03:42.000 But the voters are not as sold on her as they would like them to be.

01:03:46.000 There's enough room for like disagreement within their party especially like I mentioned Palestine with some prosecution stuff that I think you could honestly say if you kept talking about this you might help independents but also some progressives might say oh yeah we didn't like her the first time around.

01:04:02.000 You know you have to remind some of these people right like they forgot but I think any voters that are convinced right now are simply just convinced because they don't like Donald Trump.

01:04:11.000 How could they possibly be convinced on any of her policies when you go to her website right now and there's zero vision zero agenda and zero policies for how she's going to help this country.

01:04:19.000 You know what I really want to see?

01:04:21.000 Just at the DNC, Kamala loses, and then it's Hillary Clinton. 1.00

01:04:26.000 How do you think she does?

01:04:27.000 Does she do better?

01:04:29.000 Do you think people want her for the left?

01:04:31.000 I think they're done with her.

01:04:32.000 Yeah, I think she would do miserably among the younger generation, too.

01:04:35.000 So, you know, really consider how— Well, she can't do TikTok dancing. 1.00

01:04:40.000 She can't twerk.

01:04:40.000 It's been eight years, man.

01:04:42.000 I mean, we're talking about, yeah, it's been a long time.

01:04:45.000 Someone who was in their early 20s A 22-year-old voter at the time of Hillary Clinton's now approaching 30 and entering their 30s.

01:04:52.000 They have family now.

01:04:54.000 Their life has changed a lot from early 20s to their 30s.

01:04:57.000 So true.

01:04:58.000 Hillary Clinton's just not it. 1.00

01:05:01.000 But the reason why I say that is, for one, it'd be funny.

01:05:03.000 It would be.

01:05:03.000 But also, if they do swap out Kamala, she's off the ballot in so many states that I don't think they can win.

01:05:08.000 Yeah.

01:05:09.000 Like, Trump just wins by default, basically.

01:05:11.000 They won't let that happen.

01:05:12.000 Right, so it's going to be Kamala, it's going to be Walt, and then we're all going to go bleh.

01:05:15.000 And they're going to offer up no campaign policies.

01:05:17.000 They don't have to.

01:05:18.000 They're going to do everything they can to make sure that Trump is fighting in the mud with them

01:05:21.000 instead of targeting the issues. And we talked about this with the midterms in 2018 and 2022.

01:05:27.000 The kitchen table issues matter the most. But if people just want negative partisanship,

01:05:34.000 then you got to win a culture war.

01:05:37.000 So good luck convincing people that the other side is just wrong or evil or whatever instead of talking about the price of food.

01:05:43.000 Yeah, I think they should start telling conservatives, anyone who ends up on like CNN or does any kind of mainstream thing should...

01:05:50.000 push home the point that Kamala Harris does not respect you enough to give you a platform. 0.98

01:05:56.000 Like, she does not care about you, and that's crazy.

01:05:59.000 The crazier part to me is look at Donald Trump going on all of these networks, going against

01:06:05.000 the media, holding press conferences, inviting the mainstream media to come.

01:06:09.000 The same media that is propping Kamala up is the one that she's running away from?

01:06:14.000 I mean, that should scare every American.

01:06:16.000 When she did that, she gave this comment to reporters, like, when are we going to get an interview?

01:06:19.000 And she was like, oh yeah, we're going to set up one by the end of August.

01:06:23.000 Ma'am, any reporter would come from the ends of the earth to interview and have an exclusive sit down with you.

01:06:30.000 Like, you could have one tomorrow, but you don't respect your voters enough to give them one.

01:06:35.000 Or your team knows that you can't handle it.

01:06:36.000 Do you think she's like training for the interview?

01:06:39.000 Hasn't she been a public figure for long enough? 1.00

01:06:41.000 If she can't handle it now, why is she running for president? 1.00

01:06:43.000 Apparently Americans also forgot that with the whole, on day one of my administration, sweetheart, you've been part of this White House for three and a half years.

01:06:51.000 The oppressive white man is holding her back, as you know.

01:06:54.000 That's the comment that she's making there.

01:06:57.000 She is saying, oh, I'm not allowed to do stuff because Joe Biden's in my way.

01:07:03.000 patriarchal oppressors are apt to do.

01:07:05.000 It's crazy. 0.97

01:07:07.000 This is also the party that complains about how much they hate old, white, milquetoast men. 0.99

01:07:12.000 And so, let's see, now she just picked a left, communist, old, white, milquetoast man. 0.97

01:07:19.000 I mean, make it make sense.

01:07:21.000 That stuff supersedes the skin color.

01:07:25.000 Have you seen the liberal meme tweets about waltz?

01:07:31.000 Heavens help us.

01:07:32.000 I don't even want to repeat some of them.

01:07:34.000 Oh, let's hear them.

01:07:35.000 Like, no, I can't.

01:07:36.000 You have to reference some.

01:07:38.000 Because one was like, basically, a woman was explaining what it would be like to be in bed with J.D.

01:07:43.000 Vance or Tim Walsh.

01:07:44.000 Oh, I saw that!

01:07:45.000 I'm upset with you, Clint, for making me read that.

01:07:49.000 And there was one where it's like, he's the dad you lost to Fox News, come back, or whatever, or something like this.

01:07:55.000 Like, this is what your father would have been if not for Fox News.

01:07:58.000 There's one where... So many dad jokes.

01:08:00.000 There's one where it's a bunch of women and girls are hugging him and he's smiling and it's like he could save us or something It's just like the weirdest stuff man social media, but it's daddy issues Wow Like isn't that weird that this is the thing that I don't get why they have to make it so it's like Kamala is our is mom I mean, I know her stepkids call her mama like Kamala is our mom a lot.

01:08:24.000 Him also is our dad or uncle and we're desperate for family and connection and even though

01:08:27.000 they'll never know who we are, we're going to somehow put them on this weird pedestal

01:08:31.000 and they'll be nothing about that.

01:08:32.000 These are the same voters that we were talking about that have no plans to start their own

01:08:35.000 family.

01:08:36.000 Well and also on top of that, the government, that side wants the government to be your

01:08:39.000 parent.

01:08:40.000 Yeah.

01:08:41.000 Yeah.

01:08:42.000 They're the surrogates. 0.58

01:08:43.000 What?

01:08:44.000 I thought that was just like a misspelling.

01:08:45.000 I think that's just trolling.

01:08:46.000 No.

01:08:46.000 No, it's turned into a whole thing, the campaign.

01:08:49.000 Stephen Chong, our friend, is like, just going with it.

01:08:52.000 I think it's just funny.

01:08:53.000 I think it was a mistype, but I saw this one meme was like, Barron behind him was like, yes, father, exactly like that.

01:08:58.000 And Trump's like, yes, well done, Barron.

01:09:00.000 Like, they're like, messing with Kamala.

01:09:02.000 Is the goal to just be like, You know, you've never heard of this band I like, We're Too Cool.

01:09:10.000 You know, I listen to Space Avenger 53.

01:09:15.000 You've never heard of them.

01:09:16.000 They're an indie band.

01:09:18.000 Is that the strategy against Kamabla?

01:09:20.000 No, I think the Kamabla strategy is... I think it's more like Covfefe.

01:09:24.000 It's annoying people for some reason.

01:09:26.000 Like, if you look at Stephen Chung's Twitter, these people are getting so annoyed for some reason.

01:09:31.000 Like, what does this mean?

01:09:32.000 Why are you calling her that?

01:09:33.000 Does it get votes?

01:09:35.000 Of course not.

01:09:35.000 But most of these strategies right now, most of these hashtags are not getting votes.

01:09:39.000 And if some of it is just to start turning the narrative, right?

01:09:42.000 Like if you have something that's getting under their skin rather than being like, no, you're weird or whatever it was.

01:09:48.000 It is kind of funny.

01:09:49.000 Drew Barrymore said it on her show.

01:09:50.000 Is that what it is?

01:09:52.000 Oh, the repeating something that she had said.

01:09:54.000 Comma blah.

01:09:55.000 But doesn't she have a lisp?

01:09:56.000 Aren't we not supposed to make fun of her? 0.60

01:09:57.000 I don't know, I'm just like... I am not interested in having a meme flame war on X for the election.

01:10:07.000 We can have the meme war after November 5th.

01:10:10.000 If Republicans and Democrats want to engage in a he's weird, no you're weird, no you drink horse...

01:10:16.000 And I'm just going to be like, yeah, I'll be over there and I'm not going to be involved in that.

01:10:19.000 They're trying to recapture the meme war of 2015 and what that did, but it's just, it's not there right now.

01:10:26.000 They're not hitting that same wave that they were hitting in 2015, 2016.

01:10:29.000 That's true.

01:10:30.000 Yeah.

01:10:30.000 Because it was amazing then.

01:10:31.000 It was hilarious.

01:10:33.000 It was meme magic.

01:10:35.000 Have you ever seen the Meme Magic documentary?

01:10:37.000 No.

01:10:38.000 Talking about how weird 2016 was.

01:10:42.000 Like Kek. 0.99

01:10:43.000 Right.

01:10:43.000 The god.

01:10:45.000 And so for those that don't know, Kek is a god. 0.94

01:10:51.000 A frog god.

01:10:52.000 And then in World of Warcraft, when you have two factions, the Alliance and the Horde, and you're not supposed to be able to communicate with each other because it's a PvP server.

01:10:59.000 And so if you on one side, I think the Horde, is approaching you and they speak Orcish or whatever, if you type LOL, the Alliance player sees Kek, K-E-K. 0.71

01:11:09.000 So a lot of young people then online started saying Kek instead of LOL, and then people started to, like, eventually someone found out Kek was an Egyptian god, it was a frog, then there was the Pepe frog, then there was that song Chatelet where the record has a green frog on it and it's like frog magic or something.

01:11:26.000 There's a documentary talking about it, all these weird memes that happened.

01:11:30.000 One was like, Trump is going to win.

01:11:32.000 And it was all, it was like 10 number sevens in the identifier on 4chan.

01:11:36.000 So something like that.

01:11:37.000 It was like, just weird stuff, like something, the Large Hadron Collider, who knows?

01:11:42.000 Now I'm told.

01:11:43.000 I was gonna say, do you know about this stuff?

01:11:45.000 Well, that went off in 2008.

01:11:47.000 You got- this is 2016.

01:11:49.000 I know, I'm saying the Large Hadron Collider went off.

01:11:51.000 They fired it up in 2016, right?

01:11:53.000 Oh yeah, 2012 I think, 2016.

01:11:54.000 You gotta watch that documentary.

01:11:56.000 I will.

01:11:57.000 Because it's like, it actually will trip you out.

01:12:00.000 But what's happening now is them trying to do it all again, and it's not working.

01:12:03.000 It's forced memes.

01:12:04.000 The right and the left are trying to do it, and it's not interesting, honestly, like it used to be.

01:12:10.000 Do you think it's not interesting because of the issues at hand right now?

01:12:14.000 No, because it's always the end of the world.

01:12:17.000 Every election is the end of the world.

01:12:18.000 It's just that they're not funny.

01:12:20.000 A lot of them are not funny, and they're not sticking, and they're not rooted in any real truth, like the couch stuff, the horse stuff.

01:12:28.000 There's no idea being conveyed.

01:12:30.000 Memes are supposed to condense an idea into a small package that you can then deliver the information very easily.

01:12:37.000 But right now, we're not getting anything that does that.

01:12:39.000 Saying, like, weird doesn't do anything.

01:12:42.000 And that was, of course, Democrats.

01:12:43.000 They always have failed to make long-standing memes.

01:12:46.000 But Kamablah doesn't represent any kind of cultural idea.

01:12:52.000 That's why people are trying to come up with names for waltz, because the name is supposed to install in your mind an idea about him every time you hear it, and we're not getting that.

01:13:01.000 I just keep thinking it means they're going to waltz right into the White House.

01:13:04.000 I'm like, dang.

01:13:05.000 Don't say that.

01:13:06.000 I know, I know, but that's why I keep hearing that in my head because of the Time article that I also think about all the time.

01:13:12.000 Shadow campaign?

01:13:13.000 Yeah, yeah.

01:13:14.000 Like, if they were doing that back then, God knows what they've been doing.

01:13:17.000 I think it's funny that they basically wrote a whole article, like, admitting how they did all this stuff.

01:13:20.000 Like, the AFL-CIO teamed up with other corporate leaders and activists, and then... Right.

01:13:24.000 They literally say... That when you say, you did this, they're like, how could you say that about us?

01:13:27.000 That article literally says Trump said there was a conspiracy against him.

01:13:30.000 No, no, no, no.

01:13:31.000 Technically, he was right.

01:13:31.000 It says there was... The article from Time Magazine says there was a conspiracy unfolding.

01:13:36.000 Literally spell it out.

01:13:37.000 Yeah.

01:13:38.000 And it was right after election, right?

01:13:39.000 It was maybe... It was after the election.

01:13:40.000 It was February 2021.

01:13:42.000 Yep.

01:13:42.000 Unbelievable.

01:13:43.000 As soon as Joe Biden was in, they were like, yep, tell him.

01:13:47.000 Yep, we did it all.

01:13:48.000 Oh yeah, by the way. 0.69

01:13:49.000 Rub their faces in it. 0.83

01:13:50.000 Rub their faces in it. 0.99

01:13:51.000 And then we're gonna go and do even worse.

01:13:53.000 But we'll still cancel and censor you for talking about it.

01:13:55.000 I wonder if the reason the memes aren't there is because there's a lot of people who are meme smiths who have, uh, who have, who have bowed out.

01:14:02.000 Or gone to jail.

01:14:03.000 Yeah, but no, the ones that I'm referring to have bowed out.

01:14:08.000 Yeah.

01:14:08.000 So there's a lot of comedy personalities that were making memes because it was fun and funny.

01:14:13.000 And then they ended up, now they're completely uninvolved.

01:14:15.000 I think it's because we took the fun out of everything.

01:14:17.000 We definitely took the fun out of memes.

01:14:19.000 And I think the left Realized that these young guys on YouTube and X who are posting funny things were not diehard Trump supporters, but were mocking the left.

01:14:29.000 And that's what was really driving a lot of this.

01:14:31.000 So they got targeted, bowed out, and now all that's left is like, I don't know, cat turd.

01:14:36.000 Cat turd.

01:14:37.000 It's like Facebook humor.

01:14:38.000 But it's like, it's missing the younger generation.

01:14:40.000 It's missing millennials, Gen X and Gen Z. It's very boomer-oriented.

01:14:45.000 And no disrespect to boomers.

01:14:46.000 It's just, it's not associating properly with the younger generation.

01:14:49.000 I remember during like the meme wars in 2016, it was all very millennial.

01:14:54.000 It was very millennial male.

01:14:56.000 And I know a lot of these guys have completely about it.

01:14:59.000 I'll mention one thing.

01:15:01.000 Chris Ragon, for instance, had that YouTube video.

01:15:04.000 He had a bunch of songs on YouTube.

01:15:06.000 Mocking leftism, intersectionality, white privilege. 0.76

01:15:10.000 He deleted Punch a Nazi. 0.95

01:15:12.000 It was a song, a parody of Paparazzi by Lady Gaga, mocking the left for calling everybody a white supremacist and Nazi.

01:15:18.000 He deleted it because he got attacked from the left and he said, okay, I'm out.

01:15:21.000 He didn't want to be involved anymore.

01:15:22.000 And so it's people like him, a lot of the culture warriors in the 2010s have completely jumped ship.

01:15:27.000 Agreed.

01:15:27.000 I think that the cancel culture and the fear that they ignited in this country is scary.

01:15:33.000 I mean, for conservatives, there was a time where it felt like you were taking away someone's livelihood.

01:15:38.000 And that's why it's up to the Frat Brothers to save this country.

01:15:42.000 That's another interesting thing, too.

01:15:45.000 You had Sargon of Akkad, who of course is still active with Lotus Eaters, but it's fairly different.

01:15:50.000 It's become adult.

01:15:50.000 It's become academic.

01:15:53.000 Karl used to be a bit more crass, as it were, and now it's very above board and academic, and I respect it, but there were a lot of people who are no longer aligned, you know, at the time.

01:16:05.000 You had people like, uh, I could pull up maybe one of these old images showing everybody at VidCon or something.

01:16:11.000 The anti-woke, the anti-leftist YouTube community.

01:16:14.000 A lot of these people were making the videos and the memes that were getting a lot of attention.

01:16:17.000 It could actually be much more simple than all of this.

01:16:20.000 YouTube...

01:16:21.000 Censored at all.

01:16:22.000 They figured out that these networks existed, and then they just chopped them up and made sure that these things could not get traffic anymore, and now it's substantially harder for Trump to have these memesmiths succeed in influencing, you know, people in their mid to late 20s.

01:16:36.000 Maybe it's also because we're in such a humorless environment.

01:16:38.000 You know, like what they're doing to your tweet today.

01:16:40.000 There's just no humor.

01:16:41.000 There is.

01:16:42.000 We have humor.

01:16:43.000 The Democrats don't know what jokes are.

01:16:44.000 That's obvious.

01:16:46.000 The right has a problem with humor as well.

01:16:48.000 They do, they do.

01:16:49.000 But when Joe Rogan made the joke where he was like, before COVID, you know, I thought vaccines were the greatest invention ever.

01:16:55.000 Now I think the moon landing is fake.

01:16:57.000 And they were like, how dare you?

01:16:59.000 And then Joe was like, It's a comedy special.

01:17:02.000 It's intentionally exaggerated to be humorous.

01:17:05.000 They don't understand this.

01:17:06.000 Please bring comedy back.

01:17:08.000 Yeah.

01:17:09.000 I think it's still there.

01:17:10.000 Kill Tony is huge, but it's not everyone on the left who you would think would like it.

01:17:17.000 Where is Kill Tony film?

01:17:18.000 It's at the Mothership.

01:17:19.000 That's right.

01:17:19.000 It belongs to the Mothership.

01:17:20.000 Yeah.

01:17:21.000 Rogan.

01:17:22.000 Oh, he does.

01:17:22.000 Interesting.

01:17:24.000 And so it's just so shocking to me that I'm like, guys, don't rag on the guy who is connecting with regular people through comedy.

01:17:29.000 Comedy is what helped Trump in 2016.

01:17:31.000 The meme wars, they were fun and funny and everyone was laughing and having a good time.

01:17:34.000 I will say, though, we're not allowed to have a good time or fun.

01:17:36.000 No fun at all.

01:17:37.000 Joe, how dare you?

01:17:38.000 I should specify that there's a lot of humorlessness within the political world on both the right

01:17:42.000 and left because you also look at Kill Tony and they're doing numbers, right?

01:17:46.000 Like numbers, man.

01:17:47.000 Like they get 150, they do once a week, right?

01:17:49.000 150,000 concurrent viewers.

01:17:50.000 That's epic.

01:17:51.000 And he's filming Madison Square Garden right now.

01:17:53.000 Yes, right.

01:17:54.000 So there is obviously appetite for humor because of how humorlessness everything else is.

01:17:57.000 Look, man, it really comes out of this.

01:17:59.000 You've got two questions, and I do think the first segment on this, the big story of the day with Joe Rogan and RFK, does exemplify a lot of this, especially with the mean wars.

01:18:08.000 The left is trying to say, I'd rather have a beer with Tim Waltz than J.D.

01:18:13.000 Vance.

01:18:13.000 There's some fake meme.

01:18:14.000 It's like, so fake.

01:18:15.000 This guy's like, my staunch Republican neighbor says, when I ask him about it, he says, well, Walt seems like the kind of guy you'd want to have a beer with.

01:18:22.000 And J.D.

01:18:22.000 Vance doesn't.

01:18:23.000 It's like, shut up. 0.98

01:18:24.000 Because they say the same thing about Kamala Harris. 1.00

01:18:26.000 Isn't she someone you'd want to have a glass of wine with?

01:18:28.000 No, none of them.

01:18:30.000 You know who I'd like to hang out with?

01:18:31.000 I hung out with David Lucas.

01:18:34.000 That guy's fun to hang out with.

01:18:35.000 He's funny, and you're laughing the whole time.

01:18:37.000 Joe Rogan's funny, you're laughing the whole time.

01:18:39.000 Dave Smith is funny, you're having a good time.

01:18:42.000 People want to have fun.

01:18:43.000 Find the people who are having fun, become friends with them, ask them for help so that everyone can laugh and have a good time.

01:18:48.000 That's where the hangout's going to happen. 0.97

01:18:49.000 Kill Tony's is killing it! 0.95

01:18:52.000 And they had Tucker Carlson on. 0.89

01:18:54.000 That's right.

01:18:55.000 And it's the comedy mothership.

01:18:57.000 This is your open door to regular people who just want to laugh.

01:19:00.000 And that's a big boost that Trump got in 2016 and he needs now.

01:19:04.000 Yeah.

01:19:05.000 Well, I think the truth is conservatives are fine.

01:19:07.000 The conservatives are way more fine than uptight liberals that wake up angry.

01:19:10.000 They don't even know why they're angry.

01:19:12.000 But we have to play into that.

01:19:15.000 And we're living in a culture now, in a society, where people are so afraid to offend people.

01:19:21.000 Bring back bullying.

01:19:22.000 I say this all the time.

01:19:24.000 We should be making fun of ourselves.

01:19:25.000 Conservatives should be making fun of their own party.

01:19:28.000 That's why I like Kill Tony.

01:19:29.000 That's why I like hanging out with David Lucas.

01:19:30.000 He came on the show.

01:19:31.000 He roasted us.

01:19:32.000 I like that.

01:19:32.000 Yeah.

01:19:32.000 It was great.

01:19:33.000 I love it.

01:19:34.000 Oh, dude.

01:19:35.000 He's amazing.

01:19:35.000 We were hanging out with him.

01:19:37.000 He did a comedy show here and it was funny because some of the crew here, they're like, dude, the Kill Tony guys are going to be here.

01:19:42.000 And I was like, who?

01:19:43.000 And they're like, David Lucas.

01:19:43.000 And I was like, oh yeah, we know him.

01:19:45.000 He's been on the show.

01:19:46.000 And then we went and hung out with him.

01:19:47.000 And I'm like, he's awesome.

01:19:48.000 He's hilarious.

01:19:48.000 He's smart.

01:19:49.000 And he's a Trump supporter.

01:19:50.000 Yeah.

01:19:51.000 He's great.

01:19:52.000 It was funny because we're hanging out backstage, and then they're doing comedy the whole night, but then when we go back to the green room, he's explaining, like, let me tell you about politics, and then he just goes off super smart talking about policy and everything, and it was fun and funny, and his retorts, like, that is what gets you there.

01:20:10.000 When you have people like that are on Kill Tony, I don't know, is he still, is he a regular on Kill Tony?

01:20:15.000 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

01:20:16.000 Not as much as he used to be, but yeah, he's still on a lot.

01:20:18.000 And he's doing these comedy shows at the packed house at the casino down the street.

01:20:22.000 This is a guy who's advocating on behalf of Trump, complaining about Democrats.

01:20:25.000 You got to have fun with it.

01:20:27.000 And remember, he was on IRL about a week or so after this.

01:20:30.000 He was making fun of George Floyd joke, which was great.

01:20:33.000 And he felt the flame from the crazy people.

01:20:36.000 And we got to talk about it.

01:20:37.000 And then he got ragged on by Trump supporters because he walked it back a little bit.

01:20:41.000 But then like most of the moderate, so there's moderates Who have aligned with the right exactly as Elon described.

01:20:48.000 It was the Colin Wright meeting where we were kind of liberal leftists and then the left went nuts and now we've aligned with the right.

01:20:54.000 That's why it's like Ben Shapiro and I will probably disagree on most things but then we vote for the same stuff because we agree that we like America and America's good.

01:21:03.000 And that shift, those moderates and those comedians need to stay aligned.

01:21:08.000 When they started ragging on David Lucas over this, and then he said something to the family like he wasn't, you know, it was kind of an apology, I don't know.

01:21:16.000 I had to, I was like, I don't care, dude.

01:21:18.000 I don't care if people are mad, like, don't apologize.

01:21:20.000 And I was like, no, no, no, David Lucas is a funny guy.

01:21:22.000 He's great.

01:21:23.000 Like, look, if he wants to get heat off his back, keep making the jokes.

01:21:26.000 You got my support.

01:21:28.000 Do you think any of it is that people are looking for the fight instead of looking for the fun?

01:21:32.000 Like, people are tense to jump down each other's throats right now?

01:21:35.000 I think monetizing Twitter did that a lot.

01:21:38.000 It was there before, but monetizing Twitter... I was wondering if it's because it's an election cycle.

01:21:42.000 This is the stupidest thing. 1.00

01:21:44.000 It's like, then the deflection people have when I criticize them is, he's just trying to get clicks. 1.00

01:21:49.000 I'm like, dude, I posted the polls showing Kamala's winning saying, guys, she's winning.

01:21:52.000 You have to stop this.

01:21:52.000 We need to win.

01:21:53.000 They go, you're just trying to get clicks.

01:21:55.000 Sure, whatever, I don't care.

01:21:56.000 Okay, so then lose.

01:21:58.000 Yeah, this is the crazy thing.

01:21:59.000 When I'm like, here's the polls, here's the prediction markets, Trump is losing in all these metrics.

01:22:04.000 They're like, you're just trying to get clicks.

01:22:05.000 And I'm like, then if you genuinely think Trump is already winning, then what more must be done?

01:22:10.000 Like, I don't know what your argument is.

01:22:11.000 I'm showing you these things saying, guys, we have to go 10 times as hard because Kamala's coming up in the polls.

01:22:17.000 Even if the polls are wrong, Trump should still be winning.

01:22:18.000 Yeah.

01:22:20.000 I have friends in California who are Trump fans, but they're seeing a huge surge for Kamala.

01:22:25.000 Like, a lot of exciting people wearing shirts.

01:22:27.000 You know, there's merch.

01:22:28.000 Not so surprising, because it's California.

01:22:30.000 And California also has lots of red parts.

01:22:33.000 But I haven't seen that, but we're also in West Virginia.

01:22:35.000 But you know, Kamala's brat. 1.00

01:22:36.000 You know what I mean? 0.98

01:22:37.000 That's brat. 1.00

01:22:37.000 She is so brat. 1.00

01:22:38.000 And Trump is Chad. 0.99

01:22:40.000 That's what I think Daily Wire posted.

01:22:42.000 I don't know.

01:22:42.000 Was it Daily Wire?

01:22:43.000 They said Kamala, it's like Kamala Brett and then it switches to Trump and then it turns red and it says Chad and then it plays like deep bass and it's like showing Trump and like the screens flashing.

01:22:54.000 I will take a chatty daddy any day.

01:22:58.000 Okay?

01:22:59.000 Over brat girl summer.

01:23:01.000 Both those make me feel uncomfortable.

01:23:03.000 On the record.

01:23:04.000 I want that on the record.

01:23:05.000 I think, you know, I think maybe a big component of it Even with Trump winning in 2016, it wasn't like a massive margin.

01:23:12.000 It was like 40,000 votes or something.

01:23:15.000 And it was because people hated Hillary Clinton. 1.00

01:23:17.000 I always mix their names up.

01:23:20.000 Same, same.

01:23:20.000 Something about them.

01:23:22.000 I gotta tell you, if you ask me what I would rather go to, a Trump rally or a Kiltonian, no question.

01:23:29.000 With respect to Trump, I'm voting for Trump.

01:23:30.000 I want him to win.

01:23:31.000 I think he's the better candidate.

01:23:32.000 I think he's the greatest president of my lifetime.

01:23:34.000 I want to hang out at a Kiltonian show.

01:23:36.000 I went and saw Joe Rogan in Philadelphia like six years ago and I was laughing so hard I thought I was going to injure myself.

01:23:46.000 It's so good.

01:23:47.000 One of his best jokes, I don't know if it's been a long time, was he was just talking about how cats look out the window and they do that gibbering thing.

01:23:53.000 And it was just like, I can't remember the full bit, but it was hilarious.

01:23:56.000 And I'm like, this is a night to remember.

01:23:58.000 You're having a good time.

01:23:59.000 You're laughing.

01:24:00.000 We want to capture that energy and use it to convince people to vote for what will make this country better.

01:24:04.000 This is why I think they went after comedians early on in this whole cancel campaign.

01:24:09.000 Of course.

01:24:10.000 Because the comedians subvert their narrative so well.

01:24:12.000 Always.

01:24:13.000 That's why they went after Louis, you know, anyone who was funny.

01:24:16.000 Even Jerry Seinfeld, who's like a saltine compared to the comedians I like.

01:24:19.000 Sorry to cut you off.

01:24:21.000 I was just gonna say, I do feel that there is that energy at a lot of these Trump rallies.

01:24:26.000 Maybe not being used with humor, but it's the four letter word, hope.

01:24:30.000 Trump's funny.

01:24:31.000 Yeah, he's a comedian.

01:24:32.000 He's hilarious.

01:24:33.000 But most people do leave these rallies with the same sentiment.

01:24:38.000 This was a night to remember.

01:24:40.000 They feel like they're walking out with some hope, a vision for this country, and it's a safe space to express your love for America.

01:24:48.000 What Trump does really well, this is exactly it, his rallies.

01:24:51.000 So when I got invited to the White House, I went with Bill Otten for the social media summit.

01:24:56.000 And I thought it was going to be like a roundtable with maybe like 30 people and we're hanging out and Trump's going to be asking questions.

01:25:02.000 No, it was Trump standing at a podium with like 100, 200 people in a room and Trump did stand up for an hour.

01:25:07.000 The whole crowd of people who already liked the guy are laughing their ass off the whole time.

01:25:11.000 He is quick-witted.

01:25:12.000 He is hilarious.

01:25:14.000 I think he needs to get some comedians on stage with him and they should legit do a comedy set with like two opening acts and then Trump.

01:25:21.000 Trump should go on Kill Tony.

01:25:24.000 Yes. 0.97

01:25:24.000 That would be sick. 0.97

01:25:26.000 He could dish it, you know, just like those guys.

01:25:29.000 Obviously, look at all the things we've heard about pencil neck and low energy and all these people.

01:25:33.000 Dude, Trump on Kill Tony. 0.74

01:25:35.000 Trump is Kill Tony.

01:25:36.000 I mean, people should watch the Shane Gillis as Trump because that's amazing.

01:25:39.000 So good.

01:25:40.000 I bet that'll happen. 0.98

01:25:41.000 Trump would annihilate.

01:25:43.000 And the crowd would love it. 0.85

01:25:45.000 Oh, yeah.

01:25:45.000 They would love it.

01:25:47.000 Dude, remember when he posted that thing about Diet Coke?

01:25:50.000 What did he write?

01:25:51.000 What was that?

01:25:52.000 I gotta pull that one up.

01:25:53.000 That's a great one.

01:25:53.000 Remember the Bill Barr tweet where he's like, I called him fat and lethargic?

01:25:57.000 Or the protruding nipples quote. 0.99

01:25:58.000 Oh god. 0.96

01:25:59.000 For Barney.

01:26:00.000 I was at, I saw him speak at the New York Young Republicans Gala and he said something like, Ginger Gates sang the national anthem and he was like, she's very beautiful, not that I notice beautiful women! 0.98

01:26:09.000 Which I was like, what?

01:26:11.000 It's not allowed!

01:26:12.000 Here we go.

01:26:13.000 Here's a tweet from Toy- I have never seen a thin person drinking Diet Coke.

01:26:17.000 Bring this back.

01:26:19.000 Look at this one.

01:26:19.000 Wait, wait.

01:26:20.000 The Coca-Cola company is not happy with me.

01:26:22.000 That's okay. 0.99

01:26:22.000 I'll still keep drinking that garbage. 0.99

01:26:25.000 He still has it. 0.99

01:26:26.000 He still has it.

01:26:26.000 Because when we were at the Libertarian Convention, that dude walked out to half a crowd booing him.

01:26:30.000 And he ate those boos. 1.00

01:26:32.000 And he said, well, if you want to win, vote for once, vote for me.

01:26:35.000 I'm asking for your nomination at their office.

01:26:37.000 He still got it.

01:26:38.000 He is a comedian.

01:26:39.000 And then he started talking in third person.

01:26:41.000 Like, it's so funny.

01:26:42.000 That was great.

01:26:43.000 You're right.

01:26:44.000 He totally still has it.

01:26:45.000 I think they're trying to make him a politician.

01:26:48.000 Not that he'll ever be that.

01:26:50.000 But good old authentic, raw, real Trump is what they're trying to do.

01:26:55.000 Like, no handlers, no one telling him, no focus groups.

01:26:57.000 I gotta read this from April.

01:26:59.000 Wow, former AG Bill Barr, who let a lot of great people down by not investigating voter fraud in our country,

01:27:05.000 has just endorsed me for president despite the fact that I called him weak, slow-moving, lethargic, gutless, and lazy.

01:27:11.000 Based on the fact that I greatly appreciate his wholehearted endorsement,

01:27:15.000 I am removing the word lethargic from my statement. Thank you, Bill.

01:27:18.000 MAGA 2024.

01:27:19.000 Brilliant.

01:27:20.000 I don't know something about citing New York Post.

01:27:23.000 There's no hyperlinking.

01:27:26.000 Dude, this is one of the greatest roasts that has ever been written.

01:27:31.000 No question.

01:27:32.000 I am removing lethargic from myself.

01:27:35.000 It's like the dude in Dorsey and you just rip him to shreds.

01:27:38.000 It's amazing.

01:27:39.000 It's funny.

01:27:40.000 And what does it really mean?

01:27:41.000 Like, it's just a roast.

01:27:43.000 Roast is funny.

01:27:44.000 It doesn't change politics.

01:27:45.000 It's just Trump having fun and being funny.

01:27:47.000 And we all laughed our asses off when he posted that.

01:27:50.000 He's gotta get on Twitter and start doing this stuff again.

01:27:52.000 Well, I like that one in particular, because like, whenever people turn around, they're like, actually, I'm endorsing this person I've been very publicly fighting with, like, at least he's being honest.

01:28:01.000 There's some tension still there, right?

01:28:03.000 But he's gonna forgive Bill a little bit.

01:28:05.000 I love that.

01:28:05.000 I have never seen a thin person drinking Diet Coke.

01:28:08.000 That's a brilliant... I want all of this on t-shirts.

01:28:10.000 That's stand-up.

01:28:11.000 I know.

01:28:12.000 That's what he does.

01:28:13.000 Imagine he walked out and he just said that.

01:28:14.000 Everyone busts out laughing right away.

01:28:16.000 One powerful sentence.

01:28:18.000 It's funny because it's true.

01:28:20.000 That's what I'm saying.

01:28:21.000 The memes aren't rooted in anything funny, deeper.

01:28:25.000 That's just true.

01:28:27.000 Yeah, yeah.

01:28:28.000 Dude, the Bill Barr one.

01:28:29.000 He's got so many that are so good.

01:28:31.000 You think he'll be back after the Elon space?

01:28:33.000 If that's what he's doing on Monday?

01:28:34.000 I think so.

01:28:35.000 Back on X?

01:28:36.000 Oh, yeah, maybe that's it.

01:28:37.000 Maybe that's why.

01:28:38.000 I hope so.

01:28:41.000 Because we need him on X. The Truth Social is okay.

01:28:43.000 There are accounts that repost his truth posts.

01:28:45.000 I think he's contractually obligated to be on Truth, though, is the issue.

01:28:48.000 Because the stocks and if he goes on X, the DJT stock drops.

01:28:51.000 Yeah, but his campaign goes up and he regains the news cycle.

01:28:56.000 People are always going to seek out what he's saying anyways.

01:29:00.000 I don't totally get, and I am not the most avid X user, I'll admit it, but I don't totally get what he achieves by directly posting to X. There's everything about the algorithm lately, though.

01:29:12.000 Everything he says ends up there.

01:29:13.000 Everyone wants to know what Trump is saying.

01:29:15.000 People monitor him constantly.

01:29:16.000 Are we expecting him to do what Elon Musk does, where he responds in emojis?

01:29:19.000 I think there's a feeling of hearing from him directly on the largest platform.

01:29:23.000 The same way, because when Alex Jones was gone, Alex Jones was still on Twitter, you know, like people reposting it.

01:29:29.000 But when it's coming from him directly, I think it just has more impact.

01:29:32.000 And it's like the inverse of that is Joe Biden's interns writing.

01:29:35.000 And there's like, it's just flat.

01:29:36.000 You know, there's nothing to it.

01:29:38.000 I agree with you because it's still he's there.

01:29:40.000 But there's gonna be something to having him on in the public square again, the digital public square.

01:29:45.000 In real time, I think we'll have a bigger impact.

01:29:47.000 And I think knowing that it's him behind the phone, right?

01:29:50.000 Hopefully.

01:29:51.000 You'll know if it's not.

01:29:52.000 Right, right.

01:29:53.000 But I think we are expecting him to do what Elon Musk is doing, which by the way, look how many people love that.

01:29:58.000 Responding to your average American, your forgotten American, making a joke, reposting a layperson's ex post.

01:30:04.000 I think we're expecting Donald Trump to do that and people will love that.

01:30:09.000 Go against him, too, because he could just be bad at Twitter and have to, you know, learn his way back to being good at Twitter.

01:30:15.000 What's being bad at Twitter, right?

01:30:17.000 I don't know.

01:30:17.000 Like cat turd, you know, like being competing in the MAGA Olympics rather than just being funny.

01:30:23.000 No, I think cat turd's really good at Twitter.

01:30:24.000 That's why he's got millions of followers.

01:30:26.000 Our definitions of good are different.

01:30:27.000 Yeah.

01:30:28.000 Right. 0.90

01:30:28.000 I'm just saying it's targeting, it's hitting one generation and Trump really needs that, like, I just kill Tony kind of energy. 0.90

01:30:37.000 Yeah.

01:30:37.000 Like comedy, fun, funny.

01:30:38.000 What you're pulling up are tweets that last forever, have a legacy, and what Cathard's doing are just immediate shotgun blasts that may or may not be funny, but there's no longevity to it.

01:30:47.000 It works for boomers. 0.99

01:30:49.000 It does work for boomers. 0.52

01:30:50.000 That's true.

01:30:51.000 That's what Facebook does well.

01:30:52.000 I just think...

01:30:53.000 I think Cat Turd actually does a really good job for Trump, except when he starts attacking moderates.

01:30:57.000 It's like, don't burn the bridges to your allies.

01:31:01.000 You want to offer sweet candy to the moderates.

01:31:04.000 I agree.

01:31:04.000 To me, they're just the same as the Krasnistins, but a different political leaning.

01:31:10.000 So the Krasnistins, you got this island in the middle, right? 0.97

01:31:13.000 And then there's the Trump side, and then you got the liberal side.

01:31:16.000 The liberals are lying and claiming that they've got nothing but Brussels sprouts.

01:31:22.000 And some people like Brussels sprouts, sure.

01:31:23.000 They're going to go the other way.

01:31:25.000 In reality, you have people on the right offering wholesome, healthy food, candy and dessert, saying no, no.

01:31:30.000 And if you go to the Democrat side, they're lying to you.

01:31:31.000 They're tricking you.

01:31:32.000 Donald Trump didn't call Nazis very fine people.

01:31:34.000 That's a lie.

01:31:36.000 Donald Trump didn't say there was going to be a physical bloodbath when he loses.

01:31:39.000 That's a lie.

01:31:40.000 Donald Trump did not say to inject yourself with bleach.

01:31:42.000 That's a lie.

01:31:43.000 But that's all they have.

01:31:44.000 Come over here and we'll give you all the things you want.

01:31:46.000 The last thing we need to do is scream at people who we need to convince to support us.

01:31:53.000 But anyway, without rehashing that, I think, you know, Cat Turd does really well on Twitter.

01:31:59.000 That's not to say that Trump should pick up Cat Turd's tactic.

01:32:04.000 It really works for him.

01:32:06.000 Well, he truthed Joe Rogan.

01:32:08.000 They shouldn't have done that.

01:32:09.000 No.

01:32:10.000 No.

01:32:10.000 I think they're mad because Joe won't have him on the show.

01:32:13.000 But Joe's not going to have Kamala on the show either. 0.61

01:32:15.000 I think they should all go on that show.

01:32:17.000 It'd be great to see a long-form conversation with all of them.

01:32:19.000 I mean, can you imagine Kamala Harris on Kill Tony?

01:32:23.000 On Kill Tony, no.

01:32:24.000 Here's actually something I think matters a lot.

01:32:27.000 I think Joe wants away from politics.

01:32:30.000 Yeah, and he's stated that.

01:32:31.000 I think that was even in his rebuttal today.

01:32:34.000 Right, and I honestly think when Joe was the number one on all platforms across the board, My personal opinion, and this is not from anything he said to me, is that he probably was like, I don't want to be the biggest podcast in the world.

01:32:48.000 The money's nice, but it's like, Joe goes on his show and says, yo, I had Wheaties for breakfast, and then everyone writes a news article, and it's like, I don't know if you want, if you really, really want something like that.

01:32:59.000 People might think they want that, you don't want that.

01:33:01.000 It does get boring, too.

01:33:02.000 Like, he is ultimately a very curious and creative person, and he does get the opportunity to talk to all kinds of people, which is cool, but, you know, I'm sure a lot of his life is pretty regimented to put out the volume of work.

01:33:13.000 I think it gets lonely.

01:33:15.000 Well, he's a comedian.

01:33:16.000 He's got a family, and he launched Comedy Mothership, and he just happened to end up in this weird journalistic position where he was saying he's not a journalist, and everyone's like, no, Joe, you are because you're interviewing these important people.

01:33:26.000 And he's like, I just want to talk to people I think are interesting.

01:33:29.000 So I think he doesn't want to have that.

01:33:33.000 You know what I mean?

01:33:35.000 I think you can't be bigger than Joe Rogan.

01:33:37.000 He doesn't need to... Right.

01:33:39.000 He did a comedy special on Netflix.

01:33:41.000 He's got it.

01:33:42.000 Having the show draw a bunch of scrutiny and get attacks from the political world, I don't think he wants that.

01:33:47.000 And that's why it's a delicate approach.

01:33:50.000 But this goes to the point of, I do think when you look at the meme wars of 2016, it's eight years ago now, a lot of the energy that brought the comedy to the Trump side, to the right, to the anti-left, and the anti-left really did result in a lot of votes for Trump, It's gone.

01:34:03.000 A lot of these people just don't care to be involved in this stuff.

01:34:06.000 So is it too late to bring it back?

01:34:08.000 In order to do it, you have to create an environment of fun and funny.

01:34:12.000 And so... Which the conservatives are completely capable of doing.

01:34:15.000 I wonder if the issue may just be that, like, the 20... So we're talking eight years ago.

01:34:20.000 So people in their late 20s are now in their mid 30s and they're like, I got kids.

01:34:23.000 I'm not, I'm not going to go on Twitter.

01:34:25.000 I'm not, like the people who are posting the memes.

01:34:27.000 I don't know if you guys ever saw the clown world video where the Pepe is like, all the left memes and the Wojaks are screaming and they're laughing and the, you know, the clown guy is playing the Yoshi music. 0.68

01:34:39.000 These guys who made that stuff are probably like, look, man, I just had my second kid.

01:34:43.000 I got to go to work.

01:34:45.000 I'm coming back.

01:34:46.000 I am not going to be on the computer making edits about Donald Trump and frogs.

01:34:50.000 Without that energy, a lot of that fun and excitement isn't there anymore.

01:34:55.000 And Gen Z is doing other things on TikTok.

01:34:58.000 But social media aside, what about in-person events and at these rallies?

01:35:02.000 Some of these rallies have such potential to feel like an actual party.

01:35:06.000 And everyone knows conservatives are more fun.

01:35:09.000 Look at some of these icons that we have that are coming out and supporting Trump.

01:35:13.000 It doesn't have to be on social media.

01:35:15.000 I think that that's also the problem, right?

01:35:16.000 In this highly curated world, we're going for, we are, some of us are going for clickbait, for the next trend, for the next hashtag.

01:35:23.000 And that's how it also becomes so divisive.

01:35:25.000 Like, oh, I'm going to beat you in this shimmy dance or this twerking contest.

01:35:29.000 Trump regaining the culture like he did in the 90s when rap would reference him all the time in a positive way.

01:35:35.000 Yeah.

01:35:36.000 That I think is going to happen.

01:35:38.000 Like we're seeing, we were talking earlier about Lil Pump and You guys have a whole setlist concert ready to go.

01:35:44.000 Oh, it's happening.

01:35:44.000 Kodak Black, Lil Wayne, Waka Flocka.

01:35:48.000 There are a lot of people with a lot of influence in rap culture or rock culture.

01:35:54.000 We have Kid Rock.

01:35:56.000 Aaron Lewis from Stained.

01:35:58.000 I saw him wearing a MAGA hat years back.

01:36:00.000 I don't know where he's at these days.

01:36:01.000 And then the country stars.

01:36:04.000 Having the culture is where it's going to be.

01:36:06.000 So the left still has it, though, because I used to like Justin Vernon way back when, before he got so upset with Kanye for wearing the red hat.

01:36:16.000 And he's the guy who's doing the Kamala Harris rally the other day that was singing that song everyone hated.

01:36:23.000 Well, his rendition of it.

01:36:23.000 Well, what was that voice?

01:36:25.000 That's just his voice, though.

01:36:26.000 Like, it wasn't surprising to me.

01:36:27.000 That's just how he's always sounded.

01:36:28.000 It's like a weird, folksy, sad dude from Wisconsin.

01:36:30.000 See, there's nothing fun about that.

01:36:32.000 See, I like it, but he's not as relevant, I think, today as people like Pump are, I think.

01:36:40.000 I could be wrong, but I think a lot of the rap world—Sway Lee is another person who are like—Sway Lee is so anti-Kamala.

01:36:49.000 It's amazing.

01:36:49.000 I think that culture could help bring back Trump.

01:36:54.000 Yeah, that's what I'm saying.

01:36:56.000 Aside from social media, these are the ways that we can engage.

01:36:59.000 Yeah, that's real life.

01:37:00.000 And social media matters though, not to put it down, but the rallies, the things that people are going to, people feeling comfortable to say those things out loud, like that's what Lil Pump's been saying on Twitter lately, is like, I'm not afraid to just be myself anymore.

01:37:12.000 I'm like, when have you ever been afraid?

01:37:15.000 You wonder what he did to hold back?

01:37:17.000 What did you not say?

01:37:19.000 And it is the in-person stuff, especially we're talking, Tim's talking about the young generations, right?

01:37:24.000 What is happening to the young generations right now?

01:37:26.000 Well, there is a sense of loss of connectivity.

01:37:30.000 There is a sense of hopelessness that's perpetuated by the lamestream media.

01:37:36.000 And so when you're doing in-person stuff, you're Actually connecting.

01:37:40.000 You're feeling the energy in the room, and there's nothing that can replace that.

01:37:45.000 No hashtag or trend.

01:37:46.000 It's almost like lockdowns were on purpose to accelerate isolation.

01:37:49.000 The virtual DNC from 2020, and now we have this virtual roll call for Kamala.

01:37:54.000 Do you wonder if they had held an in-person roll call for Kamala?

01:37:58.000 If there had been, there'd be some electors being like, I don't want to do this!

01:38:01.000 For virtual, they're all like, I don't know, I guess this is what we're doing.

01:38:04.000 I would pay to see that.

01:38:07.000 Yeah, I don't know.

01:38:08.000 I see a lot of people post-COVID with isolation.

01:38:11.000 It destroyed a lot of people spiritually.

01:38:13.000 But it also, on the flip side, helped people with religion.

01:38:17.000 Some people were really ignited by it.

01:38:18.000 Like, we are changing our lives.

01:38:20.000 We're making decisions.

01:38:22.000 We don't like living this way.

01:38:23.000 It was both, and it was probably breaking down with, like, urban places versus rural or suburbs.

01:38:28.000 For sure.

01:38:28.000 And also with parents, and like we were saying earlier, people with no kids.

01:38:31.000 But a lot of people were like, we can't let the government parent us into oblivion.

01:38:35.000 We can't let them take our, you know, the supermarkets and our ability to travel or go to the restaurants, all that away.

01:38:42.000 So they moved.

01:38:43.000 That's why we have such geographical moving around, people leaving West, people leaving the West, I was gonna say California, or people leaving New York like I did.

01:39:21.000 Longwing Detrain says, pleased to look into having inspiring philosophy on with Spoonman and a staunch atheist.

01:39:28.000 IP is a well-read Christian.

01:39:31.000 The dialogue would be very beneficial.

01:39:33.000 Very cool.

01:39:34.000 Uh, also people were saying they wanted us to get, uh, Skillet.

01:39:37.000 Yeah. 0.92

01:39:37.000 Sick. 0.92

01:39:37.000 and I recently was connected thanks to Rick over at Edelman's Way. Shout out to Edelman's Way. And I don't know if we'll 0.92

01:39:45.000 ever be able to make something happen but really cool. I mean Skillet's huge. They just played Charlestown not that

01:39:50.000 long ago and we were there right when they were leaving. I had no idea. It was a Friday night I think.

01:39:58.000 Show wraps, we go to the casino and everyone's there with the skillet shirts on and everything.

01:40:02.000 And I was like, oh, look at that.

01:40:03.000 Awesome.

01:40:03.000 And it's like, oh, it's too bad people didn't shout it out sooner and then we would have connected.

01:40:08.000 But it'd be really cool to have them on.

01:40:10.000 Apparently they're, you know, very proud and outspoken.

01:40:12.000 So that's cool.

01:40:15.000 All right, let's grab some more.

01:40:18.000 I'm not your buddy, guy!

01:40:19.000 He says, Riddle me this.

01:40:21.000 How does one coexist with people who genuinely believe your existence is preventing them from achieving utopia?

01:40:26.000 You don't.

01:40:28.000 That's a challenge, isn't it?

01:40:30.000 No easy answers.

01:40:32.000 No easy answers.

01:40:34.000 All right.

01:40:34.000 Kalashnikov says Trump had three major wins that legitimized him in the eyes of many.

01:40:38.000 The debate with Biden, the assassination attempt, and his RNC speech.

01:40:42.000 Trump camp has turned all that momentum into attack Joe Rogan, apocalyptically disasterful.

01:40:49.000 I gotta tell you, like, that's a great point.

01:40:52.000 I don't know that it's completely diminished all of that energy, but that's what some of the pollsters are saying.

01:40:57.000 Nate Silver had tweeted that he can really see a major bump since Kamala Harris began to run, and I think part of the reason that they swapped out Joe Biden, it's obvious, nobody liked him, nobody wanted him, nobody cared about him, and Kamala is new energy for a cult.

01:41:11.000 They don't care who it is, they just don't want old man Biden.

01:41:15.000 Now they're energized again.

01:41:16.000 So Trump's got to be really careful about how he handles this.

01:41:19.000 To go from the RNC speech to that press conference, I think is a mistake.

01:41:23.000 But he does need to capture the news cycle again.

01:41:27.000 I just think he's got to go about it.

01:41:29.000 It's probably stressful.

01:41:30.000 It's probably the hardest decision.

01:41:31.000 And I can't give any good answers.

01:41:33.000 I can only say that RNC speech was something else.

01:41:35.000 That was amazing.

01:41:36.000 He needs to capture that energy.

01:41:38.000 That's his rebound.

01:41:39.000 And right now, that's the move to make.

01:41:43.000 Raymond G. Stanley Jr.

01:41:44.000 says, Dan, you should troll Cat Turd by tweeting you're now voting RFK Jr.

01:41:49.000 It's not like anyone will take you serious and RFK Jr.

01:41:51.000 def won't quote tweet you thanking you for your endorsement, right?

01:41:55.000 Right? 0.82

01:41:58.000 And it was such a passive thing for me too, because we were setting up the Culture War show and I'm walking in the room looking at my thing and just seeing people being like, screw you, blah blah blah.

01:42:07.000 I think this kind of goes back to how we're saying America can't take a joke anymore.

01:42:09.000 I'm gonna vote for RFK, put it down.

01:42:11.000 And I'm like, anyway, the show.

01:42:12.000 And then I checked it a little while later, and RFK Jr.'s like, thank you, Tim, I really support it. 0.91

01:42:16.000 I was like, ah, crap. 0.84

01:42:17.000 People at Newsweek are like, meh. 0.99

01:42:18.000 Yep.

01:42:19.000 I think this kind of goes back to how we're saying, America can't take a joke anymore.

01:42:23.000 The fact that they don't know to read that in a sarcastic tone.

01:42:27.000 Well, some of it feels malicious.

01:42:28.000 Not malicious, that's too strong, but like, I think there are people who want it to be like, this guy's turning on Trump, and you know, whatever else.

01:42:35.000 They're gonna skip the context because it serves the fact that they're trying to get a negative article out today.

01:42:42.000 Foxbat25 says, Tim, what's the update with David Pakman coming on The Culture War?

01:42:46.000 Dying to see this conversation ever since you mentioned it a month or two ago, and now I can't seem to find anything out about it.

01:42:51.000 Oh boy, it's, uh, so, you know, look, What do we want with the culture war?

01:42:55.000 Big debates.

01:42:56.000 And so now a bunch of people are saying that we should have Cat Turd on and a couple other people and do the big debate about, hey, you got beef?

01:43:04.000 Turn it into a show and it's good because it starts with and ends with vote for Trump, right?

01:43:08.000 So everybody wins.

01:43:10.000 And I'm like, I don't know, like, if that gets organized and it happens, sure.

01:43:13.000 David Pakman obviously is someone who we want to have on.

01:43:19.000 Just busy.

01:43:20.000 He hosts his own show.

01:43:21.000 And so to have someone like Kyle Kalinske or David Pakman or Cenk Uygur or Anna Kasparian or anybody be like, hey, stop doing your show.

01:43:28.000 Fly out here to do our show.

01:43:30.000 It's always a big challenge.

01:43:31.000 So I never hold it against any of these.

01:43:33.000 I'll criticize the liberals when they refuse to come on the show for fake reasons.

01:43:36.000 But any liberal pundit who's like, hey, man, look, I'm doing my show all morning.

01:43:40.000 There's no way I can make it out.

01:43:41.000 I say, yeah, yeah, fair point.

01:43:42.000 Same for me.

01:43:43.000 Same for me.

01:43:43.000 So that's basically the issue with David.

01:43:45.000 He immediately said yes.

01:43:47.000 Tremendous respect.

01:43:47.000 He was like, I absolutely want to come on.

01:43:49.000 He wants to just be one-on-one, me and him having a conversation about the issues.

01:43:53.000 And then he's like, I got to find schedule in when I can.

01:43:56.000 Because him coming out here is a lot harder to do.

01:43:59.000 And there's no way I could go there.

01:44:01.000 So we got asked to go to California recently.

01:44:03.000 And I'm like, I do a morning show and a night show.

01:44:05.000 So that means I have to fly Friday night.

01:44:09.000 We have to have an advanced crew set up at a mobile studio so I can do my morning show and the nightly show.

01:44:12.000 It is really hard to do.

01:44:15.000 That's why most of the stuff we do is gonna be East Coast.

01:44:18.000 Midwest is as far as we go.

01:44:20.000 Texas was really rough.

01:44:21.000 We had a truck carrying a trailer full of everything like three days in advance.

01:44:26.000 Everyone's super tired.

01:44:28.000 It's super expensive.

01:44:29.000 Des Moines was real tough.

01:44:32.000 And then Milwaukee was brutal because the airlines cancelled everything.

01:44:35.000 So if we're doing stuff East Coast though, it's pretty easy.

01:44:37.000 Like Ohio?

01:44:39.000 We're thinking about maybe doing something in Ohio soon.

01:44:41.000 I can't say too much yet, but that's super easy.

01:44:43.000 Tell me JD Vance is going to be there.

01:44:44.000 That's like three hours.

01:44:45.000 Maybe Vivek?

01:44:46.000 That'd be really cool.

01:44:47.000 That would be cool!

01:44:48.000 Because I want him to take that Senate seat.

01:44:50.000 But I will just say the purpose of going to Ohio is high-profile individuals have requested, if possible.

01:44:56.000 But Ohio is only a couple hour drive for us.

01:44:58.000 Super easy.

01:44:58.000 That means our advanced crew could leave morning of and get set up.

01:45:02.000 And then Friday afternoon after culture war, we could easily just drive there and then drive back at night. 0.83

01:45:07.000 Super low cost, super easy to do.

01:45:09.000 So East Coast is really easy.

01:45:11.000 That being said, look out for Ohio.

01:45:12.000 It's going to be a lot of fun.

01:45:15.000 This one, I don't know if we do an event in Ohio, but with what we're planning, I think it'll be a free event as well.

01:45:20.000 That's cool.

01:45:21.000 That's awesome.

01:45:21.000 Yep.

01:45:22.000 So I won't say much more than that because we don't have anything hammered out, but it's going to be like a first-come, first-served kind of thing.

01:45:27.000 And probably going to be big.

01:45:29.000 I'm staying tuned.

01:45:30.000 Very big!

01:45:31.000 We'll see.

01:45:34.000 All right.

01:45:34.000 Greg Duvier says, Tim, I appreciate you quote posting my big picture post.

01:45:38.000 Never thought nobody like me would have one of these comments quote posted from a high profile person like you.

01:45:43.000 Well, you know, there you go.

01:45:43.000 I don't know.

01:45:45.000 If it's on the internet, we find it.

01:45:48.000 Lunderwear says, as a two-time Purple Heart recipient, former Marine, please say in Trump's voice, Tibby Tibby lied about going to war so he could dodge bullets, but not quite like me, literally.

01:46:00.000 Well done.

01:46:01.000 Alright, Smoke Detectors with an Attitude says, The only way Rogan's endorsement could possibly disappoint

01:46:05.000 you is if you expected any better from him to begin with.

01:46:08.000 I've always seen him as a less obnoxious version of Bill Maher.

01:46:11.000 I'll put it this way.

01:46:13.000 I think Joe's voting for Trump.

01:46:15.000 He's got kids.

01:46:17.000 You've got kids right now, and you're looking at what's going on in this country, and you're cognizant of the gender ideology stuff, economics.

01:46:24.000 Which he is.

01:46:24.000 Yeah, it's gonna be fun for Trump.

01:46:26.000 Now, hold on.

01:46:27.000 If Joe Rogan came out right now and says, Trump's the guy, I'm gonna vote for Trump, everyone should vote for Trump.

01:46:32.000 He burns a whole bunch of his moderate left-leaning audience, and they'll never then be exposed to reality.

01:46:38.000 So it's the middle-of-the-road people we're trying to expose.

01:46:41.000 Joe doesn't want to be overtly political.

01:46:43.000 Joe came out and said, I didn't endorse RFK Jr.

01:46:45.000 I just said I liked the guy.

01:46:47.000 Some people said, yeah, but you said he was the only one that made sense.

01:46:50.000 I don't think Joe wants to endorse anybody.

01:46:51.000 I bet he's going to vote for Trump in private.

01:46:54.000 I think about a lot of leftists probably think that, too. 0.93

01:46:56.000 They call him alt-right and white supremacist and other nonsense.

01:46:58.000 That's not true.

01:47:00.000 But I just think he wants to stay away from it. 0.95

01:47:02.000 Let him bring out his comedian friends and then tell you Kamala Harris is crazy. 1.00

01:47:06.000 Just accept that. 0.99

01:47:09.000 He's not going to say Trump 2024, but he's going to say Kamala's nuts. 0.95

01:47:12.000 That's OK. 0.56

01:47:13.000 You know, we can accept that.

01:47:14.000 Absolutely.

01:47:16.000 All right.

01:47:18.000 Dan W is a Smartmatic CEO indebted on bribery charges.

01:47:21.000 Oof.

01:47:23.000 Yeah, I heard about that.

01:47:25.000 What else we got?

01:47:28.000 Paul Kalamakos says, I have heart failure.

01:47:30.000 I've used all my savings.

01:47:31.000 I can't pay my house.

01:47:32.000 It's $1,000.

01:47:33.000 If anyone can help, thanks, and God bless.

01:47:35.000 Give, send, go.

01:47:36.000 Helping Paul heal.

01:47:38.000 Best of luck, Paul.

01:47:39.000 Sorry to hear it.

01:47:40.000 I hope it does work out for you.

01:47:42.000 And yeah, man, wish you the best.

01:47:45.000 Trader Potato says, can't wait to see Megadeth and Phil tomorrow at the Destroy All Enemies Tour.

01:47:49.000 Tim, check out the song Washington is Next.

01:47:52.000 Mustang really hit the nail on the head for what was to come.

01:47:57.000 Oh, cool.

01:47:57.000 Megadeth is awesome.

01:47:59.000 Phil's killing it on that tour.

01:48:01.000 Have you seen these pictures?

01:48:02.000 This guy is on an amazing tour.

01:48:04.000 So amazing.

01:48:05.000 Rachel Pye says, plug Chicken City and let's have a chicken party. 1.00

01:48:08.000 For those that don't know, Chicken City Live is a live stream where you can watch chickens.

01:48:13.000 It's better during the day and whenever you super chat, food comes down and the chickens run to eat it.

01:48:20.000 Whenever $100 in Super Chats is collected, disco lights turn on and dance music starts.

01:48:25.000 Now, I don't know if we've actually maintained Chicken City to the great degree that it was when we first launched it, but the chicken parties were... Basically, I pressed record and I screamed, chicken party, and then found a song and then edited a little bit.

01:48:38.000 We made this dance for the chickens.

01:48:40.000 And the chickens learned as soon as they hear... When the chicken party starts, food starts pouring down like crazy.

01:48:45.000 At first, chickens didn't understand what was happening when they hear me scream, CHICKEN PARTY!

01:48:50.000 Because it's an automatic recording.

01:48:52.000 The chickens would just be like, looking around.

01:48:53.000 And then when the food started coming down, the chickens would run to the food.

01:48:56.000 Eventually, they realized me screaming, CHICKEN PARTY, meant food was coming.

01:49:01.000 So the chickens would be walking around, you'd hear the scream, CHICKEN PARTY, and they'd all bolt straight to the food dispenser and have the food come down.

01:49:08.000 I'll never forget being in the RV, the old RV, being behind the Daily Wire studio, and you had just launched Chicken City, and they're pretty serious over there.

01:49:16.000 We're out back just laughing at chicken parties.

01:49:18.000 And Jeremy Boring's in there, and I was like, yeah, I think we pulled in about $20,000 off Chicken City this month, and he was like, what?

01:49:25.000 CEO of the Daily Wire is like, you made $20,000 off this?

01:49:27.000 I was like, yes!

01:49:31.000 But because everybody, you know, honestly the novelty at first of being able to feed the chickens remotely and trigger a party, people were dumping money like thousands of dollars per day to watch the parties.

01:49:43.000 And then after a while, the novelty wears off and it normalized to a decent amount where it paid the cost of us.

01:49:48.000 Like, we basically have free chickens because it covers the cost of all the food and supplies and electricity.

01:49:53.000 So, you know, Chicken City.

01:49:54.000 It's fun stuff.

01:49:55.000 So they are paying their own rent.

01:49:56.000 That's interesting.

01:49:57.000 Not like Shane's children.

01:49:57.000 Absolutely.

01:50:00.000 We bought potato starch.

01:50:02.000 Uh, like planks?

01:50:04.000 Like, I don't know what you'd call it.

01:50:05.000 And the idea was to make them into paychecks using, you know, safe coloring, maybe like a little bit of berry juice to write up paychecks for the chickens.

01:50:13.000 And we wanted to film feeding them, like, here's your paycheck, and then they eat it.

01:50:16.000 But they did not like the potato starch.

01:50:18.000 Yeah, they didn't want to eat it.

01:50:18.000 Oh, interesting.

01:50:19.000 Only place I've ever worked where my colleagues lay eggs that I eat.

01:50:22.000 Very interesting.

01:50:23.000 Yeah, do we still have Roberto Jr.

01:50:25.000 on the website?

01:50:25.000 I think we do.

01:50:27.000 I hope so.

01:50:28.000 Maybe.

01:50:28.000 Well, he died.

01:50:29.000 He had a heart attack.

01:50:31.000 Yeah, Roberto Jr.

01:50:31.000 For real.

01:50:32.000 had a heart attack and died suddenly.

01:50:33.000 Was this a chicken?

01:50:34.000 He was a rooster.

01:50:35.000 Yeah, he was the rooster.

01:50:37.000 Roberto is back in charge, healthy as ever.

01:50:40.000 Healthy as ever.

01:50:40.000 How many roosters do you think have been on billboards in Times Square?

01:50:43.000 Probably just one.

01:50:44.000 Probably a couple.

01:50:45.000 A couple?

01:50:46.000 Yeah, I mean, probably hundreds.

01:50:48.000 I'm gonna look into that.

01:50:49.000 Hundreds?

01:50:49.000 I'm gonna look into this.

01:50:49.000 Hundreds.

01:50:50.000 I'm investigating.

01:50:51.000 Hundreds.

01:50:51.000 This is good.

01:50:52.000 I'd bet hundreds.

01:50:53.000 A lot of companies use roosters as mascots.

01:50:56.000 And when you're showing breakfast foods and things like that, they're very commonly used.

01:51:01.000 Maybe I want to make it more specific.

01:51:02.000 How many actual character roosters have been on a billboard in Times Square?

01:51:07.000 Not just a drawing of one.

01:51:10.000 I don't think the Disney company has a rooster, so probably very few.

01:51:14.000 Yeah.

01:51:15.000 They'd have to alter the coloring of the rooster now, too.

01:51:18.000 Matt P. says, not a fan of Rogan simply because he normalizes drug use and drinking in front of millions, at a time when our men are becoming effeminate, obese, and pacifist, while millions of military-aged men invade our country purposefully.

01:51:31.000 I can understand your opinion.

01:51:33.000 I can agree to a certain extent, but I also would push back a little bit.

01:51:37.000 I believe you are correct.

01:51:39.000 I don't drink.

01:51:40.000 I don't smoke.

01:51:41.000 I try to do as healthy as I can.

01:51:43.000 We have glass bottled water.

01:51:44.000 Today I've got plastic water.

01:51:46.000 I'm not perfect.

01:51:47.000 However, I recognize that we exist in the context of all that came before us.

01:51:56.000 You think we just fell out of a coconut tree?

01:51:57.000 So, Joe exists in the context as well in which regular people live.

01:52:03.000 But Joe is also an MMA commentator.

01:52:05.000 UFC guys are based.

01:52:07.000 He exercises, he works out, he advocates for very healthy things.

01:52:11.000 He calls out the chemicals in the garbage in our food.

01:52:13.000 The things that Joe Rogan advocates for are very middle-of-the-road, but slight net positive.

01:52:19.000 I don't like the drinking and the smoking.

01:52:21.000 Yeah, but people do, and they're allowed to do it.

01:52:23.000 If Joe then says, exercise, get fit, do it for yourself, take your vitamins and work out, then that's a very, very good thing.

01:52:30.000 I gotta tell you, man, Joe is very, very pro exercise, workout, and be a man.

01:52:37.000 And I had a conversation with him a while ago where he was like, bro, are you lifting?

01:52:40.000 And I was like, I don't lift.

01:52:42.000 He's like, you gotta lift, dude.

01:52:43.000 You gotta start lifting.

01:52:43.000 Taking vitamins?

01:52:44.000 And I was like, I do take a multivitamin.

01:52:46.000 No, no, no, you gotta take more vitamins.

01:52:47.000 So trust me when I say, it's a positive influence.

01:52:51.000 Not everybody's perfect, but Joe is an absolute net positive for the direction of the society.

01:52:55.000 And he talks a lot about a lot of his comedian friends bringing them to the gym and working out.

01:52:59.000 Yeah, and sitting in the sauna, doing the cold plunge, red light therapy.

01:53:02.000 I know!

01:53:03.000 He's posting eating meat.

01:53:04.000 Like, watch his—go to his Instagram, dude.

01:53:06.000 He is telling people to cold plunge, to sauna, to eat meat.

01:53:09.000 He hunts elk.

01:53:10.000 Eat that steak, baby! 0.99

01:53:12.000 Eat that steak.

01:53:13.000 You know, man.

01:53:16.000 You take the good with the bad, and if it's a net positive, you accept it.

01:53:19.000 Nothing's perfect, you know?

01:53:21.000 If it was net negative, net bad, like Young Turks, we say no, no, none of that.

01:53:25.000 You know, go away. 0.58

01:53:26.000 Get out of here.

01:53:28.000 All right, let's see. 0.99

01:53:30.000 Chase Stark, he says, RFK was 100% right about the Indigenous Peoples Day thing and it made you look silly. 0.99

01:53:35.000 Wrong! 0.86

01:53:36.000 I believe that, uh, the, uh, I believe he was caught off guard with that.

01:53:42.000 R.F.K.

01:53:42.000 Jr.

01:53:43.000 launched his campaign by saying it was Indigenous People's Day.

01:53:46.000 That is divisive and unnecessary.

01:53:48.000 And I said, why even say Indigenous or Columbus?

01:53:52.000 Like, if you really want to just remain out of it, don't use either.

01:53:55.000 And he's like, oh, some people call it this, some people call it that.

01:53:58.000 And I'm like, it's Columbus Day.

01:54:00.000 Activists changed the name for political reasons, and it pisses off a lot of people in Philly particularly.

01:54:06.000 There was a big deal about it where a bunch of guys showed up to the Columbus Day statue angry about this stuff.

01:54:10.000 How about you just don't be divisive?

01:54:12.000 And he said, I gotta be honest, it strikes your credibility when you bring this stuff up.

01:54:15.000 Oh, that's not an answer.

01:54:17.000 That is an emotional dig to try and make me go, oh, well, what do you think?

01:54:20.000 I'm so weak-willed that I'd be like, well, I didn't mean to bring it up.

01:54:23.000 Oh, I'm so sorry.

01:54:24.000 I don't actually believe this.

01:54:25.000 Please don't, don't offend my credibility. 0.99

01:54:26.000 Shut up. 1.00

01:54:27.000 That's the stupidest thing I've ever heard. 1.00

01:54:28.000 Don't say stupid things like Indigenous Peoples' Day if you're trying to claim you're uniting people, okay? 1.00

01:54:33.000 I like RFK Jr. 0.99

01:54:35.000 I think he's fantastic on environmental toxins.

01:54:37.000 I think he should endorse Trump, and I think Trump needs to bring him in on these specific issues related to Big Pharma and environmental toxins, chemicals in the water, all of that stuff.

01:54:47.000 This would be fantastic.

01:54:49.000 But I think when he tried that play, it was a weak counter.

01:54:54.000 He could have just said, okay, And that would, you want to really deflate the tires when I say, you said Indigenous People's Day.

01:55:00.000 And he's like, yeah, I don't know.

01:55:03.000 Okay.

01:55:03.000 And then I would have been like, all right.

01:55:05.000 Got a little defensive.

01:55:06.000 He got defensive.

01:55:07.000 If he just said, yeah, maybe.

01:55:09.000 Jordan Peterson famously had that moment.

01:55:12.000 When it was being interviewed and he says, you know, businesses should be allowed to choose who they let in or discriminate if they want to.

01:55:17.000 You should be able to, you know, tell them what they have to do.

01:55:20.000 And then I can't remember which comedian it was.

01:55:21.000 He says, what about if it was black people to be discriminated against?

01:55:24.000 And then Jordan goes, oh yeah, maybe I was wrong about that. 0.63

01:55:27.000 Yeah.

01:55:28.000 Just that simple.

01:55:29.000 Just take the gas right out.

01:55:30.000 Yeah, maybe, I don't know, maybe I was wrong.

01:55:32.000 Like when you're trying to start a fight with your significant other.

01:55:34.000 I remember that.

01:55:35.000 Yeah.

01:55:37.000 Okay.

01:55:37.000 That interview was so heavily edited too.

01:55:40.000 I forget what that guy's name was, but he had a nasty guy.

01:55:44.000 Yeah. 0.98

01:55:44.000 He's a nasty guy. 0.98

01:55:46.000 One of the worst, but you know, it's okay. 0.99

01:55:50.000 All right.

01:55:51.000 Riley Gerald says, Code Tim gets you free shipping for sourdough.

01:55:54.000 Ooh.

01:55:55.000 Glory Farm knocks on socials.

01:55:56.000 I've tried sending this super chat for 10 minutes.

01:55:59.000 I'm using wrong speak, I guess.

01:56:01.000 Yeah, they don't like sourdough.

01:56:02.000 Everybody's doing sourdough these days.

01:56:06.000 Let's go.

01:56:06.000 Eli Bedokovich says, Hey Tim, thought I'd drop by and give everyone a bit of white pill news, since it's cultural.

01:56:14.000 There was a leak for Half-Life 3.

01:56:16.000 It seems it's still in development.

01:56:18.000 Oh, everybody's really excited about Half-Life, huh?

01:56:22.000 The American Hillbilly says, agree on the Rogan take, but conservatives believe we're literally at war over the future of our country.

01:56:28.000 They take the position that if you're not with us, you're against us.

01:56:30.000 No room for fencing.

01:56:32.000 Well, I'll also mention, we don't mention Dilley, the Dilley meme guy.

01:56:36.000 He, uh, I pointed out that I was pro-Bernie in 2015.

01:56:43.000 Bernie Sanders.

01:56:43.000 Bernie and Trump overlapped on a lot of things.

01:56:45.000 Secure border, working class, you know, better jobs for the working class.

01:56:51.000 Bernie Sanders said open borders is a Koch brothers proposal.

01:56:54.000 We wanted better trade agreements.

01:56:55.000 He thought TPP was bad.

01:56:57.000 And then he got, you know, axed by the Democrats, so Trump made the most sense.

01:57:01.000 Dilley's response was basically like, F you for voting for Bernie, get out of here.

01:57:05.000 And it's just like, okay.

01:57:07.000 Like, let's tell all of the post-liberals, you are not welcome in MAGA.

01:57:12.000 Go away.

01:57:13.000 Yeah, how well is that going to work?

01:57:14.000 9 million people voted for Obama and switched to Donald Trump in 2016. 0.75

01:57:18.000 Tell them all to F off. 0.98

01:57:19.000 Tell them all, go bye bye, we don't want you. 0.96

01:57:20.000 So many people left Bernie to vote for Trump.

01:57:23.000 Because Bernie and Trump were the populists, and Trump was an unknown. 0.99

01:57:27.000 For me, it was like, Trump seems silly. 0.80

01:57:30.000 Bernie at least is saying, no war. 0.97

01:57:33.000 He's saying TPP is bad.

01:57:34.000 He's saying we need better trade agreements.

01:57:36.000 And I'm like, yeah, I like all that stuff.

01:57:37.000 Trump was saying it too, but Trump was crass.

01:57:42.000 Bernie gets axed and I say, Trump, he makes way more sense than Hillary.

01:57:45.000 I didn't vote for him either way though.

01:57:47.000 And then 2020 Trump releases a second term agenda.

01:57:49.000 And I was like, I could not deny it.

01:57:51.000 For me to say, I would not support this agenda would be a lie.

01:57:54.000 All of it makes sense.

01:57:54.000 And all of it is a good thing and no new wars.

01:57:57.000 You got to take it.

01:57:58.000 Yeah.

01:57:59.000 So let's tell all of the people who wanted Bernie for one reason or another, you're going to get more victories with Donald Trump than anyone else.

01:58:05.000 Come on board, baby.

01:58:06.000 Yeah.

01:58:08.000 Yeah.

01:58:09.000 Let's go.

01:58:10.000 Let's grab some more Super Chats.

01:58:13.000 All right.

01:58:14.000 TinyAntKing says, Tim, the answer to where was this transgender stuff 100 years ago is Weimar Republic. 0.99

01:58:20.000 First ever reassignment surgery was performed there on a Danish girl.

01:58:23.000 Quote. 0.97

01:58:24.000 See, film, the Nazis burned books exactly like this book is gay. 0.97

01:58:28.000 Indeed they did.

01:58:30.000 The Rush says, no one will remember this Rogan criticism.

01:58:32.000 Remember that Trump was just shot less than three weeks ago, and people are barely talking about it now.

01:58:37.000 Indeed, indeed.

01:58:38.000 Alright.

01:58:42.000 Jesse Darin says, more independence means less government relevancy.

01:58:46.000 The government gains power when people rely on it, which is why it prefers immigrants, who need more support over citizens. 1.00

01:58:52.000 The Great Replacement is real.

01:58:55.000 Well, Democrats also want to change the census.

01:58:58.000 They need to bring more people into their districts so that they can get more congressional seats.

01:59:04.000 All right, we can grab a couple more here before we roll out.

01:59:07.000 Roy K. says, Bring on Rolo Tomasi.

01:59:09.000 This lady would see the truth about what's going on in the female-centric society and why it's hard to find a good man. 1.00

01:59:14.000 We did bring on Rolo Tomasi.

01:59:16.000 When was he here?

01:59:17.000 He was on Culture War a while ago, wasn't he?

01:59:18.000 It was Culture War? 0.54

01:59:21.000 And I don't think you said you didn't see why.

01:59:23.000 It's funny that they're immediately like, she doesn't understand!

01:59:28.000 Let's go.

01:59:30.000 Nicky Ryan Frost says, what about Kami Kamala?

01:59:33.000 Since Trump already called Hillary and Joe crooked, I think that adjective may be done.

01:59:37.000 Kami Kamala seems like the most fitting, or Kamila, in my opinion.

01:59:41.000 I'm a huge fan, keep it up.

01:59:43.000 It's really just about the simple things.

01:59:46.000 So there's a reason why I said Crooked Hillary, you know, Lion Ted. 0.99

01:59:50.000 Kami may be a little bit too specific.

01:59:52.000 I think the vague, I don't know if it was vague, someone You know, that could work.

01:59:58.000 But it really is just easy to say, like, creepy Kamala.

02:00:02.000 She's creepy. 0.69

02:00:03.000 She's weird.

02:00:04.000 That's why they did the weird thing.

02:00:05.000 That's actually a really good point.

02:00:07.000 That's good.

02:00:07.000 stolen Valor Tim. Immediately every veteran in the country hears that and knows how bad Tim Walz is.

02:00:12.000 That's actually a really good point. Stolen Valor Tim, they call him.

02:00:16.000 Claiming he was in war when he wasn't, when good, brave men and women answered the call

02:00:21.000 and they made the ultimate sacrifice, he knew his deployment was coming, decided to leave anyway,

02:00:26.000 and then went on to say that he served in war.

02:00:29.000 How about that?

02:00:30.000 Joe Biden says his son died at war all the time.

02:00:33.000 Yup.

02:00:34.000 They don't care.

02:00:34.000 But is that him being misleading or do you think he doesn't remember the circumstances?

02:00:39.000 Depends which Biden we're talking to.
