TRIGGERnometry - Rob Schneider： I'm So Happy He Won

00:00:00.720 So this was an astounding achievement.

00:00:03.260 I guess the left went so far left, they left the American people behind.

00:00:07.420 It's so funny that they accused Trump of being racist.

00:00:10.040 The people that helped him win were black men and Hispanics.

00:00:14.420 Yeah, but they've got internalized whiteness, so that's what it is. 0.89

00:00:19.400 You could not critique Biden.

00:00:21.280 You could not make fun of Biden's age.

00:00:22.980 How dare you?

00:00:24.640 He is our president. 0.98

00:00:25.820 He's not brain impaired until we say he's brain impaired.

00:00:30.740 This is our Ronald Reagan.

00:00:33.220 He's the most powerful political figure in over a century in America.

00:00:37.180 And that's done because the Democrats gave him that gift.

00:00:42.400 Rob Schneider, welcome to Trigonometry.

00:00:44.720 Well, thank you so much for having me.

00:00:46.180 You look happy.

00:00:47.400 I am happy.

00:00:49.000 It is a joyous time in my nation and for the world.

00:00:54.660 Yeah, but the Trump victory was just a phenomenal achievement.

00:01:00.000 An incredible, the greatest comeback in political, American political history.

00:01:04.360 It's a stunning achievement. 0.98

00:01:06.660 Most importantly, it's a stunning rebuke for this authoritarian, narcissistic crap that America's been having to deal with for the last few years. 0.95

00:01:19.400 And so you'll have to excuse me if I am extremely enjoying this moment in time. 0.97

00:01:29.600 It's been great.

00:01:30.640 Yeah.

00:01:30.920 Yeah.

00:01:31.720 And you switched parties about 10 years ago, right?

00:01:35.360 Yeah.

00:01:36.220 I mean, if you're not a liberal in your 20s, you know what they say, you're heartless. 1.00

00:01:40.060 But if you're still a liberal in your 50s, you're an idiot. 1.00

00:01:42.360 And I just never understood. 1.00

00:01:45.320 I just assumed.

00:01:46.640 I realized that the Democratic Party goes out of its way to try to help people when they have no power to do anything.

00:01:54.880 So nothing gets done.

00:01:56.560 But there's this feeling that they are supporting you somehow.

00:01:59.260 And I think that's what happens, you know, to people who still support the party.

00:02:06.500 And then there's the super elites.

00:02:08.580 You know, like it's so it is wonderful to see, to enjoy.

00:02:13.040 For me, having lived here and been through this kind of elitist, you know, crying and complaining and Oprah Winfrey saying we're going to have the democracies over if we don't elect Kamala, who wasn't democratically chosen to be the Democratic Party nominee for president.

00:02:33.880 You know, and Robert De Niro saying, you know, threatening him.

00:02:36.660 And it's just it's nice to know that none of that worked.

00:02:42.200 And these people are so rich and they have so much money and power that they can avoid the very real life consequences of Democratic policies of the last few years with open borders, which were simply open to just moving people, you know, in the middle of the night.

00:03:05.020 You know, no one's doing anything good in the middle of the night.

00:03:08.780 Flying people.

00:03:09.740 I don't know.

00:03:10.320 I can think of a few things.

00:03:12.200 Gone in the middle, you know, but I take your point.

00:03:14.180 But it was just for forever power.

00:03:15.640 And it was like, we're just going to have like California.

00:03:17.820 We're going to have a super majority of Democrats and there will be a choice which Democrat you want.

00:03:23.780 I mean, you're going to have a choice in this one or this one.

00:03:25.240 You're going to have choice of these.

00:03:27.620 But so it was really becoming close to being the Republican Party, which I, you know, I found appalling, you know, in my youth.

00:03:36.660 But where the Democrat, the Republican Party would be a forever minority party.

00:03:42.380 And that was the plan.

00:03:43.240 And truthfully, the Republicans in Congress, they love to, you know, as long as they 93% re-election rate, they're happy to even lose.

00:03:52.260 So this was an astounding achievement because I think we were the, I guess the left went so far left.

00:03:58.640 They left the American people behind. 0.91

00:04:00.040 And so their policies, which they wouldn't even mention, I mean, Kamala Harris, who was the, she says she's the, you know, the law and order district attorney for California.

00:04:12.660 She wouldn't back a bill that's 36, which passed very, you know, with the tremendous numbers here in California, which is basically to just, if you steal something, shoplift, they have to prosecute you.

00:04:25.460 I mean, it doesn't seem that complicated, but this week, you know, the day before the election, she just said, I'm not going to comment on that.

00:04:31.640 So we didn't, you know, say, how do you, how are you against that?

00:04:35.460 So you really have, you know, like one remaining Walgreens in San Francisco.

00:04:40.300 And anytime you try to buy anything in a store, it's like, excuse me, can I get somebody to unlock the bananas so that I can get, you know, you can't live your life that way.

00:04:48.200 So I don't even know how Democrats can, you know, there's this woman practically in tears on the plane that I flew here. 0.99

00:04:55.560 And I was just trying to console her because I think it's going to have to be the Republicans that put on the big boy pants here.

00:05:03.560 And they're going to have to be the reconciliation party and the party that reaches out to the other side and the party that doesn't do the lawfare and vindictiveness.

00:05:12.760 I think that's going to have to be, I met with, you know, I went to Washington, D.C., met with the congressman to start talking.

00:05:20.200 And they have legislation now to make sure that if any lawfare on the state level for any, whether it's a senator, any federally elected official, including past or present vice presidents or presidents.

00:05:35.600 And if it's at the state level, which could be corrupted, as we saw what happened in New York City with Donald Trump, it's automatically jumped up to the federal.

00:05:43.040 So you can have a fair case.

00:05:43.980 So you can still bring charges against somebody, but at least it's taken out of the, you know, the political realm as much as possible.

00:05:51.740 And that's what we're going to have to do, things like that, to move things peacefully forward in this country.

00:05:56.540 France, can I just finish on this?

00:05:57.800 You said that, you know, the Churchill quote, I think it's Churchill about the liberal when you're young and et cetera.

00:06:03.560 I think so, yeah.

00:06:03.980 Is that really true, though, Robert?

00:06:05.300 Because one of the things that strikes me is, I don't know how much you've changed, you tell me, but I think the Democrats have changed dramatically.

00:06:13.340 They have, yeah.

00:06:14.000 So when you were still voting for them, they were pro-border security and all of these other issues.

00:06:21.260 They were, many of them, to the right of where Donald Trump is now.

00:06:25.040 So is it that you got old and conservative, or is it that they, like you said, they went so far to the left, they left the country behind?

00:06:31.260 They did.

00:06:32.020 And also, there was just, in California, you have, there is not one aspect of your life that this administration, and I understand the Democrats have been in charge for 12 of the last 16 years.

00:06:44.360 So there literally was nothing, no part of your life, whether it's your kid's school, where they literally, you know, Gavin Newsom passed a law that if your kid was claimed or was, you know, this, there's a lot of the social contagion of gender dysphoria.

00:07:02.020 Which is a very delicate time for any youth at a time, and there's also a percentage of kids that are on the spectrum who could be, fall prey to this gender dysphoria, and it's a contagion, or gender contagion in society.

00:07:17.200 And so they passed a law that if you can't tell the parents, so, you know, I didn't sign up to co-parent with the state of California.

00:07:25.360 You know, I mean, it's my kid, my wife's kid, we're going to do it, so we got the hell out of here.

00:07:28.580 You know, as I say in my act, you know, it's a very Rodney Dangerfield-style joke.

00:07:32.560 I said, hey, it's dangerous taking your kids to public school in California, you know, in the morning you drop off a girl, in the afternoon you pick up a boy.

00:07:38.280 You know what I'm saying? It's dangerous. Hey.

00:07:39.460 But it's not that exaggerated.

00:07:43.740 I do feel it's, so they did, and there was even legislation here, it was a joke of mine that went, I thought about it for a year, the joke.

00:07:53.300 And it just, it kind of crystallized finally as I was driving my car, because sometimes you can take something and try to complicate it, but the more simple you can get the joke.

00:08:01.920 But it was about slave reparations, because it passed committee, they don't know how to do it, but it passed committee, they don't know what they're going to do, and Gavin Newsom did agree to sign the bill for slave reparations.

00:08:12.300 And it's like, so the state of California wants to pay money, pay people who were never slaves, to be paid for by people who never owned slaves, in a state that never had slaves. 0.96

00:08:27.120 And I said, that's like paying child support for a child you never had, to a woman you never fucked. 0.83

00:08:34.860 And it just, you know, it just kind of very, it just gets to the point, people kind of get it. 0.96

00:08:39.880 And so, but I think so, the Democrats have been able to, I think the best comedy now is more conservative based, because you have to go against the power base.

00:08:48.360 The power base has been this illiberal liberalism, that I just don't feel like it speaks to the average person.

00:08:55.280 The first time I came to this city was in 2002, and it was completely different.

00:09:00.580 When was a moment for you where you started to notice things going awry?

00:09:04.980 Well, it was having to do with medical freedom of parents, and the kind of the tightening the noose for the pharma industry.

00:09:14.660 Big pharma is a real problem in the United States.

00:09:19.940 The power of big pharma, like I tell this to people in California, well everywhere.

00:09:26.520 I say, like, you take the Mexican drug cartels, and they make maybe $10 billion, roughly, maybe on a good year, 15, 20, and that goes a long way in pesos.

00:09:36.220 However, you take a look at the pharma industry, just for the vaccine industry, it's $350 billion.

00:09:43.420 It really is.

00:09:44.360 And then they want to get it up to $750 billion by the end of the decade.

00:09:47.840 And that's just this particular group of drugs, and they make it mandatory for you.

00:09:54.840 And what they did in COVID was there's no liability.

00:09:58.880 As a matter of fact, Pfizer and Johnson & Johnson and what is the other one?

00:10:05.020 Moderna.

00:10:05.640 Moderna.

00:10:06.520 And there's another one.

00:10:09.760 AstraZeneca.

00:10:10.400 AstraZeneca, thank you.

00:10:11.380 They would not go into a country unless they were given blanket immunity from liability for the harm of these drugs.

00:10:20.440 So they know something's up with it.

00:10:21.820 And they didn't want to release the information because if the state's paying for it, this is American's property.

00:10:28.120 So that's why we have the freedom of information.

00:10:29.700 I know you guys have that, too, in the UK.

00:10:31.400 So you have to turn over these papers.

00:10:33.060 And what they tried to do was the FDA, and that's why we have a captured agency by industry, the revolving door between industry and agency.

00:10:45.660 You could be at the head of the Merck division for vaccines, and then the next thing you know, you could be at the FDA, and then you could leave and then go.

00:10:53.760 So there's – and the FDA is funded primarily by the drug industry.

00:10:59.780 So if you have a new drug, you have to spend what's $50,000 for just the application.

00:11:04.180 And the application for drug fees is what funds it.

00:11:07.160 And then you also do your own research.

00:11:09.120 You want to do your own studies to find out if it's safety.

00:11:11.360 So it's basically letting the fox in the hen house.

00:11:15.400 So there needs to be some firewall. 0.91

00:11:19.000 And that's what Robert Kennedy and I have talked about for years is to have a firewall so that you can do what's best to protect the people.

00:11:26.160 I mean, these agencies have to be for the protection of people and to benefit the United States citizens and their children.

00:11:34.720 So I saw the encroachment where pharma would actually write the new rules for the medical boards.

00:11:41.880 And the medical boards – because the big pharma pays – if you look at the biggest contributors for all political – for all political parties and for political candidates, whether it's at the state level or federal, you'd be shocked that the majority of it is coming from pharma.

00:11:57.800 Wow.

00:11:58.400 It's just too much power.

00:11:59.960 So they're able to have a stranglehold.

00:12:04.520 And it's also a stranglehold in our economy.

00:12:06.200 We spend five times more for our drugs here than they do in Europe, and we're not getting the same results.

00:12:10.420 So I think one of the things that Kennedy's talked about, Robert Kennedy's talked about, is there's only two countries that allow straight-to-consumer advertising of drugs.

00:12:20.480 And it's like – and it is – it's just us and New Zealand.

00:12:24.240 Well, you know, well, New Zealand, you can understand why they would do it down there.

00:12:29.380 They're so far away from people, and they're very nervous and cold and so close to Antarctica.

00:12:37.100 But we – so that's going to be a big deal because 75% of all advertising, when they say Pfizer – the news, Anderson Cooper brought to you by Pfizer, that's because Pfizer is paying Anderson Cooper $20 million.

00:12:52.540 So that is – that's affecting the news.

00:12:57.440 So they have to – those tentacles have to be taken off one by one and so that we can have a chance to kind of undo the damage that the pharma has done.

00:13:09.020 So that's what got me involved originally in it.

00:13:11.020 And it's – you know, the party in power in California, you know, they want to control what kind of car you drive.

00:13:18.480 They had legislation.

00:13:19.700 It didn't pass, but it was proposed to limit your car to go only 80 miles an hour.

00:13:27.740 And we say, hey, look, I don't want to drive more than 80 miles an hour in a school zone.

00:13:30.520 But, however, on the highway, if I'm going to go up to San Francisco, I want to go more than 80.

00:13:33.940 If I get a ticket, I'll deal with it.

00:13:35.360 But the fact that the Democrats want to control every aspect of your life and the fact that they, you know, they want to hide things from your kids, hide things from parents between the kids and their teachers, I think is unethical.

00:13:46.600 And I think that that's a bridge too far.

00:13:50.320 And I think even – so the American public rejected it.

00:13:54.080 They reject boys in girls' sports.

00:13:56.540 There's a narcissistic – narcissistic failed male athletes should not find refuge because they can't beat other guys.

00:14:03.440 In girls' sports.

00:14:04.920 I mean, hey, I would have loved to have done it.

00:14:06.560 I'll be honest with you.

00:14:07.460 No sports trophies in my house.

00:14:09.240 Not one.

00:14:10.120 You know, Rob, what you're sort of talking about here is you're saying in many ways that California was descending into authoritarianism, really.

00:14:19.620 Yes, absolutely.

00:14:21.340 Well, if you go too far left and you go too far right, you end up with what you really end up with.

00:14:25.260 They're back-to-back and it's totalitarianism, whether it's from the left or from the right.

00:14:29.600 It ends up being a power grab.

00:14:32.240 And the interesting thing about the United States was the division of powers.

00:14:38.960 I mean, we really – and that's why, you know, for all the people screaming that Trump is going to become a dictator, he wasn't the first time.

00:14:46.100 And he did leave the first time.

00:14:47.500 I mean, he wasn't happy about leaving.

00:14:49.000 He certainly didn't want to.

00:14:50.260 He certainly made some phone calls to prevent leaving.

00:14:52.520 But at the end of the day, he did leave.

00:14:54.060 So you have the three-legged milk stools, what I call it, with the executive, judicial, and the legislative.

00:15:02.880 Now, the problems happened, though, is after 9-11 and the attack on America, you had the Twin Towers falling down and the 2,000-odd people dying.

00:15:13.300 We had a thing called the Patriot Act, which subverted the authority that would – and basically not subverted, but it was happily given from the legislative to the executive.

00:15:24.680 So they basically abdicated their lawmaking powers to the executive so that the executive, the president, could have a clear hand and since has been, you know, ruling like an emperor.

00:15:37.320 And that happened – and it's been – both parties don't want to give that power up.

00:15:40.860 And it was just approved again under the Democrats.

00:15:43.200 And I don't think the Republicans are going to give it up either.

00:15:45.880 And that has to be rescinded.

00:15:47.420 Because the idea of a law – I mean, if there's an emergency that the president needs to do something, that's fine.

00:15:52.960 But I think you've got to go back – I go back to sports.

00:15:55.700 I think just like, you know, in football, if there's a play, you want to have a flag on the play, you want to check the replay.

00:16:03.500 Well, I think the president should get two executive orders a year.

00:16:07.400 That's it, two.

00:16:08.260 And you've got to – you know, and it still should have to pass some sort of legislative review.

00:16:13.040 And otherwise, like what happened with Biden is he – 125 – in his first week, 125 executive orders.

00:16:19.640 So basically, it's an emperor.

00:16:21.020 So we're hiring an emperor.

00:16:22.360 And there really isn't the checks and balances.

00:16:25.020 And it's really both parties.

00:16:26.540 They have to go back, again, undo the Patriot Act, which also spies on Americans.

00:16:32.200 And we have to, you know, stop these forever wars.

00:16:36.320 And so, you know, I was excited about the potential to have Trump reelected to get out of this.

00:16:43.580 I mean, the Democratic Party moved towards these warfare.

00:16:47.280 They became – it's really interesting that the people who supported Kamala Harris and Tim Walls was Dick Cheney, who the Democrats 20 years ago called a war – correctly called a war criminal.

00:16:59.460 And, you know, his warmongering little daughter and they – you know, and also Vladimir Putin also was a Kamala supporter.

00:17:09.620 I don't think they really publicized that too well.

00:17:12.240 But – so I think we have to move away from that.

00:17:15.880 We have to get away from that and stop spending our – you know, because when you keep spending money – and it's like the people, the movie stars and the people who supported Kamala Harris,

00:17:26.180 they don't know what it's like to be an average American, like me.

00:17:32.060 You know, I had to take – I didn't fly private here.

00:17:34.640 I didn't fly.

00:17:35.580 Did you fly Spirit Airlines?

00:17:37.220 It wasn't a normal jet.

00:17:38.860 But I had – it was like eight rich people instead of just one rich person.

00:17:42.200 Because I'm not the uber rich.

00:17:43.300 I'm just kind of rich.

00:17:44.780 But the average person in America has less than $1,000 in the bank.

00:17:48.280 I mean, you're talking about 80% of America.

00:17:49.820 So when you raise – when you just print a bunch of money or you give $100 billion to Ukraine, you are – and you're printing that money, you're causing this inflation.

00:18:00.540 And inflation went up 26% in the last four years.

00:18:04.680 And that – I mean, people had to choose between groceries or buying gas for their car.

00:18:10.000 And it's just put a real burden on the backs of hardworking Americans who were just struggling to get by.

00:18:17.380 So we have – there are people – that's why it was such an across-the-board.

00:18:21.440 That's why you had – it was so funny that they accused Trump of being racist and sexist when the people that helped him win were black men and Hispanics.

00:18:31.060 Yeah, but they've got internalized whiteness. 0.63

00:18:33.120 So that's what it is.

00:18:35.940 It is, and you're right about that. 0.99

00:18:37.520 Yeah, they're the black face of white supremacy. 0.99

00:18:39.600 The black face of white supremacy. 0.99

00:18:41.420 Isn't that a beautiful thing? 0.98

00:18:43.180 Isn't that incredible?

00:18:44.100 Because if you put that in your script or in a movie, they go, no, no one's going to buy that.

00:18:48.620 Well, that's the American dream. 0.96

00:18:49.780 Even black people can be white supremacists and be the only thing you want in this country. 1.00

00:18:53.920 It really is. 0.71

00:18:54.740 It's like – so it really – it comes down to you have free choice as long as you agree with us.

00:19:00.280 Yeah.

00:19:00.800 And we own these minorities.

00:19:04.600 We – this is our voting bloc.

00:19:06.020 We have them.

00:19:06.660 Stay away from them. 0.99

00:19:07.460 And if you don't – and if you're in that and you no longer – if you're Thomas Sowell and you're an African-American and you think differently and you find yourself in conflict with these liberals who aren't so liberal, you're a race traitor. 0.90

00:19:22.140 You're not just someone who thinks differently.

00:19:24.160 So I'm hopeful that the Democratic Party will see the error of their ways and regroup.

00:19:30.620 This is an opportunity.

00:19:31.640 It's a good day for them.

00:19:32.340 Are you hopeful?

00:19:32.360 Well, I hope they keep losing, to be honest with you.

00:19:35.840 But, you know, the power – now the power shifts.

00:19:38.760 So now my comedy is going to have to shift also to what the Republicans do.

00:19:42.020 It has to be whoever the power base is, there's going to be an abuse.

00:19:46.120 There's a potential for abuse.

00:19:48.120 So, I mean, I do hope – we only get two parties.

00:19:50.760 We tried with Robert Kennedy to have a third party.

00:19:53.100 But you can say what you want about the, you know, the arrests and the indictments on President Trump,

00:19:58.860 which will all be thrown out this week or the first week that he's in office.

00:20:02.900 Rightfully so, in my opinion.

00:20:04.640 We have to keep moving forward.

00:20:06.160 But they did – so seven against Trump, ten against Kennedy.

00:20:10.460 So, you know, the Democrats don't – nobody wants a third party.

00:20:14.180 Even the Republicans don't.

00:20:15.460 So what the media does – and the media also needs a spanking from this. 0.63

00:20:19.880 And they need to come back to a place where they represent the American people.

00:20:22.860 You can see how far the polls were off. 1.00

00:20:24.400 And, you know, the slandering – the Atlantic is a shit magazine. 0.99

00:20:30.120 The New York Times, the Washington Post, no one wants to read that. 0.99

00:20:33.660 Outside that small little circle of a several block area of New York City

00:20:37.920 and a little bit places in Bel Air and the gated communities in Los Angeles. 0.98

00:20:42.060 Nobody gives a shit about the LA Times. 0.99

00:20:44.020 Nobody gives a shit about the New York Times. 0.99

00:20:46.780 It is no longer – I would never pay a penny. 0.95

00:20:50.020 When they ask, would you like a dollar a month?

00:20:51.680 I wouldn't give you a penny a month. 0.99

00:20:52.760 You couldn't pay me a dollar a month to read that shit because it is no longer an objective news organization. 0.99

00:20:59.500 Well, here's the interesting thing, though, because Jeff Bezos has – it came out and actually said 0.98

00:21:04.760 what the Washington Post is doing isn't actually – you know, is no longer working.

00:21:10.880 They need to reshape.

00:21:12.080 They need to move forward.

00:21:13.420 They need to – they need to catch up with current times.

00:21:16.780 And you're thinking – whatever you think about him, you can't deny the guy's a smart businessman.

00:21:21.120 He is, he is, but it's a little late to the party, isn't it, though?

00:21:23.740 I mean, he just did it like two weeks ago.

00:21:25.060 He didn't do it two years ago.

00:21:26.560 So I would say that if it was still, you know, a hegemony of illiberal liberal media giants, they would continue it.

00:21:34.020 I mean, he wouldn't – but they are privy to information that I'm privy to as anybody who wants to get inside information on the inside tracks.

00:21:42.940 And it wasn't that hard to get inside information on what was going to happen in this election.

00:21:46.800 That's why Zuckerberg apologized a month ago.

00:21:48.720 He wanted to get out in front of it.

00:21:50.080 And as soon as he apologized, Jeff Bezos – and the same thing with the New York Times.

00:21:54.440 If you're going to be a newspaper, if you're going to attempt to present something that is objective in nature – and sure, it's going to always lean left. 0.98

00:22:03.640 But it was a grievance newspaper at a certain point trying to make people feel like shit. 0.98

00:22:10.700 And that's the thing that pissed off Americans was not only did they – they thumbed their nose and they had disdain for us. 1.00

00:22:18.460 They called us garbage. 0.99

00:22:20.400 And they mean that as Trump supporters. 1.00

00:22:22.160 They – you know, it was deplorable garbage. 0.98

00:22:24.460 And then Mark Cuban last week – I mean, talk about own goals the Democrats kicked here. 1.00

00:22:28.700 Mark Cuban calling Trump's women unintelligent and not strong.

00:22:36.220 I mean, whenever that happened, it was like, yeah, that's another million votes.

00:22:39.780 We just – we got North Carolina for sure now.

00:22:43.480 And then, you know, the great gift, the best gaffe of the entire election was Joe Biden saying he's – why are they letting him on TV?

00:22:54.620 They could just – it could have been a phone call. 0.98

00:22:56.200 They could have been – you know, he said, hey, the only garbage I see are his supporters. 0.98

00:23:02.060 And it was so beautiful how the White House tried to cover that, wasn't it? 0.98

00:23:05.860 They said, no, there was an apostrophe.

00:23:08.680 And they called it apostrophe gate.

00:23:10.640 He said, no, no, no. 1.00

00:23:11.720 He didn't mean like the supporters are garbage. 1.00

00:23:13.420 He meant the garbage that's coming from specific supporters. 1.00

00:23:17.840 And it just fell on deaf ears. 0.99

00:23:19.700 And it was just more of the same. 0.99

00:23:21.280 I mean, he's calling us garbage. 1.00

00:23:22.400 He was just calling us white supremacists, uba, maga, mooga, ultra, maga. 0.99

00:23:26.760 Yeah.

00:23:27.460 And these are Americans.

00:23:28.720 These are Americans who just want to get by and get the government out of their life.

00:23:32.280 I mean, you really have something that I didn't think was possible was we have another Reagan,

00:23:37.680 another Ronald Reagan, who now has a mandate.

00:23:40.320 This is our Ronald Reagan.

00:23:42.920 He is.

00:23:43.540 He's the most powerful, he's the most powerful political figure in over a century in America.

00:23:50.680 And that's done because the Democrats gave him that gift.

00:23:54.060 Do you think that he is going to be able to enact everything that he's promised or even 50 percent?

00:24:01.180 That's laughable.

00:24:04.000 No, but I do think he'll be able to get some of it in.

00:24:07.040 First thing he's going to have to do is fulfill his promise about energy and immigration.

00:24:12.620 And I think the immigration is impossible. 1.00

00:24:15.360 And it's impossible for several reasons.

00:24:19.680 He will have to make an attempt.

00:24:21.640 I mean, no one's going to argue about kicking out criminals and murderers.

00:24:26.100 I mean, that was the thing that, like, is laughable. 0.99

00:24:29.340 That ICE, which is this organization that the Biden-Harris administration just shit on, 0.96

00:24:34.400 basically the immigration and enforcement. 0.74

00:24:37.880 I mean, these are the people that are doing the hard work of the,

00:24:40.400 and then having to deal with the real life, you know, problems from this liberal party

00:24:48.900 that they're allowing this open borders and all the mess that's happening.

00:24:53.540 This is ICE.

00:24:54.040 So ICE at the very, a month ago in the election, a little bit more than a month, in September,

00:25:01.180 they released information about all the murderers and all the criminals that came in.

00:25:05.940 And that was not an accident. 1.00

00:25:07.620 They were saying, fuck this. 0.99

00:25:09.660 This is, now you're going to have to deal with this. 1.00

00:25:11.060 And that was it.

00:25:11.720 At that point, I knew the election was over.

00:25:14.720 I knew it was just a matter of, of just not doing our own, own goals.

00:25:20.700 And, and, and there's, you know, what the policies are good under Trump.

00:25:26.020 It's just the form in which he presents them.

00:25:28.440 It's hard to stomach.

00:25:29.800 Well, the point you were going to make, I think, about immigration,

00:25:32.120 and I think it's a really interesting conversation, is deporting the criminals.

00:25:36.480 Yeah.

00:25:36.700 No one is going to disagree with that.

00:25:40.720 Closing the inflow.

00:25:42.540 That's going to not be a problem.

00:25:43.940 Yeah.

00:25:44.180 No one's going to disagree with that.

00:25:45.880 However, if you're going to get into families and breaking up families, if you're going to,

00:25:51.060 how are you going to do it?

00:25:51.900 And first of all, I would just say, I would give Trump an out.

00:25:55.180 It's too expensive.

00:25:56.560 And truthfully, we need immigration in this country.

00:25:59.500 We do.

00:26:00.140 It's just nice to know who they are and are they coming in as soon as, you know,

00:26:05.160 and have an idea of where they came from and what their plans are.

00:26:07.720 Well, if someone's coming to your house for dinner, you kind of want to make sure that

00:26:10.640 they're the people that you want there, right?

00:26:12.860 Yeah.

00:26:13.160 But I think your point is, the immigration conversation gets difficult and painful

00:26:19.200 because I don't think, even speaking to people who are on the right, who are part of

00:26:23.340 the Trump movement, I don't think there's much appetite. 0.99

00:26:26.420 You're going to get some idiot on Twitter saying, you know, get them all out and whatever. 0.99

00:26:30.660 But most people don't want to see families where you've got American children and grandmys 1.00

00:26:36.100 living who came here illegally, like all of them deported. 0.98

00:26:40.440 I would be against it.

00:26:42.400 I think most people in this country.

00:26:43.960 Whatever small impact I have in this administration, which is zero.

00:26:48.960 But no, I'd be against that because I also think that there's an out for Trump.

00:26:54.420 It's too expensive.

00:26:55.500 I don't want to spend the money.

00:26:56.460 These people are going to work and we're just going to stop the flow and the criminals

00:26:59.460 are going to get out and then move on quickly.

00:27:01.540 So do you legalize the people? 0.70

00:27:02.880 I think they have to have a road to, I mean, they have to have a road to some sort of legal

00:27:10.400 status.

00:27:11.480 And I think you need it.

00:27:12.820 I think you have to have it.

00:27:13.820 And I think the idea of America is, must be, give us your poor, give us your weak, give

00:27:24.080 us your downtrodden.

00:27:25.660 And we'll make grateful citizens of them because of the opportunities that this, I mean, my wife's

00:27:31.760 Mexican and she, um, the Mexican people who come here are the hardest working. 0.86

00:27:37.960 I mean, you can, if you stop the Mexican workers here, this country will shut down. 1.00

00:27:44.360 It will not operate.

00:27:45.500 And these are jobs that, you know, to be, uh, quite frank that, that, that not all of

00:27:52.100 them, but there's a lot of jobs that people, uh, natural born American citizens don't want.

00:27:57.660 Uh, and we need workers and we need people to come in.

00:28:01.320 I'd like to know who's coming in from China, you know, military age people coming in from

00:28:05.540 North Africa and Syria, China, that has to stop. 0.87

00:28:08.560 And everyone will agree with that.

00:28:09.960 But we cannot as a country, um, but as a country, we cannot, um, afford to, um, and all, you know,

00:28:22.160 I would say money first, that's an out for the Trump, we can't afford these people.

00:28:26.340 We can't, it's too expensive.

00:28:27.560 I want to kick them out, but it can't.

00:28:29.440 Uh, but, but also I just think, uh, it would be heartless.

00:28:32.200 And I don't think we're, we're not going to be knocking down doors.

00:28:34.940 And that was the thing about the Democrats that were really, was terrible, was that the

00:28:38.640 Democrats were knocking down doors and arresting people.

00:28:41.120 And January 6th, that was not an insurrection.

00:28:45.800 And the whole idea that that was going to win, they were going to win the election on

00:28:48.900 that and abortion was, was roundly rejected by the American people.

00:28:54.580 It wasn't ugly.

00:28:55.600 Was it regrettable?

00:28:56.980 Was it a horrible day?

00:28:58.300 Absolutely.

00:28:59.360 Was it a guided tour by the FBI?

00:29:01.880 Probably, you know, it was like a Disney ride.

00:29:04.860 You know, they dress the FBI.

00:29:05.860 You know, when they asked the FBI, the head of the FBI, uh, at this, at the congressional

00:29:11.500 hearings, cause that's all we had.

00:29:12.660 We didn't have the Senate. 0.96

00:29:13.420 So the Senate didn't give a fuck what happened that day, you know, uh, to really get to the 0.97

00:29:18.080 bottom of it. 0.98

00:29:18.960 When they asked the head of the FBI, I'm blanking on his name.

00:29:22.640 Uh, they said, were there any FBI agents that were disguised as Trump supporters that

00:29:32.020 day leading the people?

00:29:33.100 And he said, I'm not, I will not, I can't answer that question.

00:29:35.420 He said, you can't answer it.

00:29:36.560 It's no, it's no where there were.

00:29:39.120 And so that's the kind of thing that has to, that was egregious.

00:29:42.840 Again, it was just, it's too far.

00:29:44.120 I mean, it's a kind of entrapment.

00:29:45.540 Like there was this incredible case that the FBI did, which was absolutely stunning where

00:29:51.480 they, they set up and, and, um, they've got these, these people who are down and out

00:29:59.380 in Michigan, poor guys and set them up to, Hey, wouldn't it be a great idea?

00:30:04.040 And they pretended to be these other militia men.

00:30:06.920 Why don't we kidnap? 0.95

00:30:08.440 Why don't you kidnap the governor, governor Whitmer of Michigan?

00:30:12.560 And it was all set up.

00:30:14.260 It was all a complete setup from the government.

00:30:16.580 And luckily that got thrown out.

00:30:18.480 So it's like, what are you doing?

00:30:20.060 Just, I mean, go after crime.

00:30:21.840 Don't go after real Americans. 0.96

00:30:23.280 But there was a point where the Democrats wanted to show these, you know, like the, that 0.98

00:30:28.000 they said for years, the most dangerous thing in America, these terrorists, these white supremacists.

00:30:33.040 It's like, you know, and Obama's lie, continuing to lie about there's good people on both sides.

00:30:38.260 He did not say that it's been debunked.

00:30:40.320 It's been debunked by liberal sources. 1.00

00:30:41.960 And yet these assholes are still, still saying the same crap. 1.00

00:30:45.700 So luckily I think we're in a better place. 1.00

00:30:48.000 It was roundly rejected.

00:30:49.680 So how do you move forward?

00:30:50.940 And will he get his stuff across?

00:30:53.600 I think he'll do some of it.

00:30:55.120 I think he's going to do it moderately.

00:30:59.200 I don't think he's going to do anything too crazy.

00:31:01.200 I don't think he wants to mess with the markets.

00:31:03.100 Well, one of the things that is very reassuring to me about this situation now is that he's

00:31:12.160 got not only the mandate from the Electoral College, but the popular vote.

00:31:18.520 He's got the Senate.

00:31:19.580 As we're recording this, we don't know what the situation with the House is.

00:31:22.360 He could have all three.

00:31:23.420 He'll have, by the time this airs, he will have the House.

00:31:26.360 We'll know by the weekend.

00:31:27.380 And I think he'll have a slim majority.

00:31:29.860 Well, let's say he has all of that.

00:31:31.420 And on top of that, this was the election when the media dominance of the conversation

00:31:38.400 ended. 0.99

00:31:39.500 So he doesn't have to give a shit anymore. 0.98

00:31:42.060 He's not running for re-election, number one. 0.99

00:31:43.920 But more than that, he doesn't have to give a shit what the New York Times think. 0.98

00:31:48.380 He still cares, though. 0.99

00:31:50.840 Isn't that cute?

00:31:52.700 He wants to be loved by everybody.

00:31:54.580 And I tell people, I said, you're not going to have Donald Trump.

00:31:56.740 Don't worry about Donald Trump coming over to your house for tea.

00:32:00.200 He's not going to come over for crumpets or whatever you Englishman eat.

00:32:03.680 He's not going to come for your bar mitzvah, your kid's bar mitzvah.

00:32:06.940 He's not coming for the Thanksgiving dinner.

00:32:08.980 He is going to be like the plumber.

00:32:10.920 You know when everything, the pipes are breaking and everything?

00:32:12.920 You're not going to do it.

00:32:13.900 Somebody's going to do it.

00:32:15.020 He's going to, you know, he's in a bigger way.

00:32:17.260 He's going to be that.

00:32:18.680 But he's got good people.

00:32:19.860 And I talked to Don Jr., his son.

00:32:21.460 And I said, you know, he didn't have good people around him the first time.

00:32:26.300 And Don admitted, yes, he trusted.

00:32:29.640 I mean, you have to hire like 10,000 people.

00:32:32.560 And he didn't have the best people around him.

00:32:35.220 He admits that John Bolton is this horrible war hawk, that it will have nothing to do with

00:32:39.000 his administration.

00:32:40.040 And I also hope that Pompeo doesn't as well.

00:32:42.600 I'm worried about that because I think he's another guy who is just a war hawk.

00:32:46.480 We got to get out of wars.

00:32:47.300 We need to get people that are not going to be that gung-ho about it.

00:32:51.180 So, I mean, I think it's a good thing he still wants to be liked by the New York Times.

00:32:55.720 He still wants to be loved by that.

00:32:57.560 But he's not going to have to worry about re-election.

00:32:59.860 So, I think he's going to worry about his legacy.

00:33:03.080 Well, yeah, and that's what I'm saying.

00:33:04.280 I just think he has a chance.

00:33:07.200 The American people have spoken.

00:33:08.740 And he has a chance to deliver the things that they asked for.

00:33:11.700 And if he just did that and he didn't worry about the headlines and he didn't worry about

00:33:16.000 the name calling, you know, and didn't feel that he had to destroy everyone who comes

00:33:20.840 after him, he could just do the things that he promised to do.

00:33:24.840 And if he did that, I suspect he would change the course of history.

00:33:28.780 He really would, because not only would he show Americans that this was possible and he

00:33:34.680 would hand over the presidency to whoever his success is going to be, because if he delivers

00:33:39.080 on his policies, why would anyone vote for anyone else, right?

00:33:41.880 Well, exactly right.

00:33:42.640 And then also, Rob, and this is, you know, for us is important, he could show the entire

00:33:47.120 Western world.

00:33:47.820 You don't have to continue going down this path.

00:33:50.600 Well, it is a reckless path of this idea of the global elites and a one world government.

00:33:57.520 And we have to maintain, if we continue going down this path, it's, as Douglas Murray says,

00:34:03.320 it's the Western civilization committing suicide.

00:34:05.840 I mean, when you have now the majority of people in Brussels, Belgium, that are no longer

00:34:11.780 Belgique, but they're foreign born, you really are. 0.99

00:34:15.820 This whole replacement theory is another conspiracy theory that six months later, two years later,

00:34:20.160 has become fact.

00:34:21.600 So I think it's important that we...

00:34:23.400 Hang on a sec, Rob, but when we say the replacement theory, what are we actually talking about? 0.70

00:34:27.240 Because there's an aspect of it, which is like, Jews want to replace white people with Muslims 1.00

00:34:33.920 in Europe. 0.83

00:34:34.680 And that is obviously...

00:34:35.860 Well, that's crazy.

00:34:36.620 Yeah.

00:34:36.900 That's crazy.

00:34:37.500 But that's what some people mean by that.

00:34:38.920 Jews are famously pro-Muslims.

00:34:40.160 Yeah.

00:34:42.360 Yeah.

00:34:43.620 It's all...

00:34:44.620 Yeah.

00:34:44.880 Well, you have to be careful with any grandiose statements.

00:34:47.700 You just got to look at the numbers.

00:34:49.220 And I would just say, also, the thing that's unique about this incredible system, I mean,

00:34:55.120 it ain't perfect.

00:34:56.200 I mean, when our founding fathers, when they said we...

00:34:58.500 They didn't say, but we joined together to make a perfect system.

00:35:02.320 No, a better one.

00:35:03.460 That's all.

00:35:03.920 They wanted to have a better one.

00:35:04.800 With the checks and balances, if you read the Federalist Papers, you know, what Madison

00:35:08.780 really wanted to do was to create a system that was hard to subvert into tyranny.

00:35:16.560 And I think he did a pretty good job with it.

00:35:17.980 Is it perfect?

00:35:18.700 Absolutely not.

00:35:19.900 But what we have is our sovereignty.

00:35:25.120 And that was the biggest thing for me.

00:35:26.320 The biggest worry that I had was the Biden administration wanting to give over sovereignty,

00:35:29.640 whether it's to the World Health Organization, which Trump, towards the end of his first

00:35:34.020 run, got us out of that.

00:35:35.820 Because he saw what was being run by China and also run by Bill Gates.

00:35:41.520 It was just funding that organization.

00:35:43.620 So, you know, Bill Gates has too much power.

00:35:45.900 It has to be...

00:35:47.820 And we can't have our sovereignty or any nation's sovereignty.

00:35:52.520 We want to keep the individual cultures and what they've developed over hundreds of thousands

00:35:58.020 of years.

00:35:58.820 We want to keep the Gauls French. 1.00

00:36:00.480 You know, we want to keep the Swedes Swedes. 1.00

00:36:03.100 What's happening is if you're having people come into your society with a spoken plan to

00:36:12.720 subvert your society, you can't bring people into your country who hate you.

00:36:16.420 You can't bring people into your country that want to destroy your country and that will 1.00

00:36:20.500 not assimilate.

00:36:21.720 And I will say that the United States seems to be unique in the sense that there's just...

00:36:26.320 I don't know if it's just because there's just so much potential to make money and improve

00:36:30.640 your lives that it subverts people's religious fervor.

00:36:35.500 And you have a chance here to really become successful.

00:36:40.360 And that's why communism never really took a foothold here.

00:36:44.140 And that's what I was worried about with this.

00:36:46.120 With the Democrats, we're moving more towards this Marxist in the name of woke, which if you...

00:36:51.320 All these Trojan horse terms that Andrew Doyle speaks about.

00:36:55.880 It's true.

00:36:56.300 These are, you know, social justice, as Thomas Sowell says.

00:36:58.920 Sounds great when you open it up.

00:37:00.400 Hey, that's grievance.

00:37:01.160 That's revenge.

00:37:01.840 These are people that's envy.

00:37:03.380 These are people that are angry and that want to, you know, revenge on everybody else.

00:37:07.020 So these Trojan horse terms, but were adopted by the Democrats and never wanting to power

00:37:14.720 grab.

00:37:15.360 And it seemed like they were just punishing the average person.

00:37:18.120 So I think it was important that there was a pushback against that and a real rejection.

00:37:23.420 And I hope we can go back to where these countries will reclaim their sovereignty and hopefully

00:37:29.460 only have people...

00:37:31.260 People in the United States get subverted to the system and they become...

00:37:36.440 And they assimilate.

00:37:37.400 So that's happened so far.

00:37:39.460 And so while it's imperfect and they're...

00:37:41.020 While capitalism also leaves people behind, it does afford, one, to improve your life and

00:37:45.780 to improve the life of your children.

00:37:47.040 And that's everything.

00:37:48.060 And so communism didn't take over there.

00:37:50.800 However, the Marxists knew that the worker...

00:37:53.380 In the West, it was never going to happen.

00:37:55.420 The Marxist revolution was never going to happen.

00:37:57.640 And there were two revolutions from Marx...

00:38:00.700 I'm sorry, from Mao.

00:38:02.240 1949, but then the Cultural Revolution in 1966.

00:38:05.080 And that was specifically to get rid of the four olds, he called it, which was habits, tradition, 1.00

00:38:14.780 culture.

00:38:15.620 And I'm blanking on one more.

00:38:19.400 Would it be a religion?

00:38:20.520 It's tradition, religion, rituals, and religion for sure.

00:38:28.740 But I think that was pretty much gone by 66.

00:38:31.080 So what the Marxists had to do was to sneak in through education and subvert the society

00:38:37.240 through the education.

00:38:38.360 They've been very successful at that now.

00:38:39.940 Through the university and then going up into K through 12.

00:38:44.220 And it really is to cause so much...

00:38:45.680 I think the plan is to cause so much grievance and so much chaos that people, and I think

00:38:51.380 the Democrats are part of this too, were trying to cause so much chaos that they'd be willing

00:38:55.360 to give up their liberties for just some sense of calm.

00:38:58.460 So that's why when you have girls' sports and boys' and girls' locker rooms, and then

00:39:03.740 you have people, the boys and the trans issue, and then you have openers.

00:39:09.940 You just have this crazy chaos where people say, enough, what do we got to do?

00:39:14.140 What liberties do I have to give up so I can have some sense of calm?

00:39:16.980 Yeah.

00:39:17.240 And you know, it's very interesting that you talk about the grievance industry, resentment,

00:39:24.160 because I've started to see this creep into comedy, and you must have seen this because

00:39:28.320 you were doing what, Saturday Night Live in 1990 when it was a completely different world.

00:39:34.280 How do you see Hollywood then and Hollywood now?

00:39:38.140 Well, I think that there, when people would watch something and complain about it on Saturday

00:39:43.440 Night Live, like we did a sketch about Bill Clinton, where Julia Sweeney, one of the, played

00:39:48.800 Chelsea Clinton as a 13, she was 13 at the time, Chelsea Clinton. 0.63

00:39:53.340 And we put braces on her, like, you know, like that.

00:39:56.420 And people were furious, like, leave the kids alone!

00:39:59.560 You know, this is before the Democrats would, you know, say mean things about Barron Trump,

00:40:03.260 of course.

00:40:04.500 So that was, like, off limits.

00:40:07.920 And, but at the same time, you'd have to go over to people who are in power.

00:40:11.680 So, but there were people, you know, have you ever written to a TV show and said,

00:40:15.180 complaint?

00:40:15.820 No.

00:40:16.260 Exactly. 1.00

00:40:17.080 You're a crazy person to do that. 0.99

00:40:18.460 However, on Twitter, it's just this, and then send. 0.84

00:40:21.760 And so, the idea of, which is, you know, social media is relatively new.

00:40:29.060 So, the idea for companies and advertisers are just, you know, particularly, they're not

00:40:35.880 immune to this pressure.

00:40:37.700 And so, if they get, like, you know, 15 or 20 or 30 of these things, they can think it's

00:40:40.900 300.

00:40:41.620 Or if they get 300, they just think it's 3,000 complaints.

00:40:44.580 And all of a sudden, they worry about their brand.

00:40:47.380 So, I mean, we didn't have that pressure then.

00:40:49.380 But they do now.

00:40:50.840 So, that's why when, when the most wonderful thing that's happened, and I think one of

00:40:57.220 the reasons why Trump was so successful, is because the last bastion in tech companies

00:41:02.720 for free speech is Twitter.

00:41:05.320 So, when Elon bought Twitter for $44 billion, interestingly, the Democrats or the liberals

00:41:12.440 knew that he was going to, you know, light them up.

00:41:15.760 They saw all the signs and they didn't want him to have the power.

00:41:18.740 But they still took the money. 1.00

00:41:20.660 They still took the, because they're whores. 1.00

00:41:23.000 At the end of the day, the Democrat whores took every fucking penny of that $44 billion. 1.00

00:41:28.620 And they were very happy to take it and go, you know. 1.00

00:41:31.000 And they thought, well, go ahead, destroy Western civilization.

00:41:33.840 I'll build a big fence and I'll be fine in here next to Oprah.

00:41:37.280 And, you know, and George Clooney, we'll have our, we'll be okay.

00:41:40.700 We'll build a bigger fence.

00:41:41.640 Uh, so luckily, that free speech, um, was, was where people like myself could actually

00:41:49.040 critique the government.

00:41:50.460 And, uh, and that free speech is, is, is really unfettered free speech.

00:41:55.020 Uh, it's to protect the bad stuff.

00:41:57.140 And it, it's been amazing because I, I've gone to universities with Charlie Kirk and

00:42:01.700 I've gone, um, and spoken to people because they stopped teaching, um, that they stopped

00:42:08.760 teaching, uh, civics in school, how our government run.

00:42:12.240 And I don't think that's an accident.

00:42:13.380 They don't want, the government doesn't want you to know how Americans, how their government

00:42:17.020 runs.

00:42:17.340 And so they don't really talk about free speech, but you know, free speech isn't just

00:42:22.380 to protect the stuff that you like.

00:42:23.680 It's the ugly stuff.

00:42:24.700 It's the stuff, the socially acceptable stuff doesn't need protection.

00:42:27.600 It's the lies, you know, it's the, it's the stuff that's offensive.

00:42:32.140 That's what needs protection.

00:42:33.340 And then let the people decide what's the truth and what's not the truth.

00:42:36.460 But I, and I quite agree, but let's go back to the Hollywood point because as somebody

00:42:41.720 who's a huge fan of comedy and grew up with comedy movies.

00:42:46.680 Yeah, it's a, it's a wasteland.

00:42:49.100 It is an absolute wasteland.

00:42:50.280 Tell us.

00:42:51.080 Um, well, because the fear of the comedy now and the fear of being, uh, ex, you know,

00:42:57.080 excommunicated, it really is what happens.

00:42:59.080 Peter Boghossian talks about this with the left and there really is a religious architecture

00:43:03.140 in their thinking, whether they're religious or not.

00:43:04.980 It has that architecture and a belief system.

00:43:07.280 When you challenge somebody's belief system, they get really angry.

00:43:10.440 It's a fundamentalist Christian, fundamentalist Islamic, or a fundamentalist Democrat.

00:43:15.220 They, they get angry.

00:43:17.160 And, uh, so, um, you know, it was very interesting because during the, you know,

00:43:21.340 during the, uh, scandemic, as I call it, which was, um, and I'm, hold on a second.

00:43:27.800 Why is this scandemic?

00:43:28.700 It is one of the most deadly pandemics in human history.

00:43:31.240 It killed millions of people around.

00:43:33.020 Okay.

00:43:33.280 Well, first of all, it, it, the death rate of that, we have to look at the numbers for

00:43:37.620 this.

00:43:38.140 What was the death rate?

00:43:40.120 Do you know what the death rate was in the United States?

00:43:41.720 No, they do not.

00:43:42.640 Okay.

00:43:42.820 It's 0.3.

00:43:44.240 That is about the same as a flu.

00:43:47.560 And they said there were no flus.

00:43:49.540 There's, they said nobody died of the flu that year.

00:43:51.880 Why?

00:43:52.320 Because people wore masks.

00:43:53.580 And they said, well, how come they died of COVID?

00:43:54.760 Well, because masks don't work.

00:43:56.000 So at a certain point, we have to look at the evidence.

00:43:58.340 We have to make our decisions that are evidence-based.

00:44:00.960 So when I say it was a scam, it was a scam because Trump was lied to.

00:44:05.040 He was lied to by the CDC.

00:44:07.600 He was lied to by Fauci.

00:44:09.560 He was lied to by Redmond.

00:44:10.880 He was lied to by Birx.

00:44:12.680 These are the people in the health agency, health agencies.

00:44:15.720 They said, if you don't do this, you're not going to get reelected.

00:44:18.000 Four million people, Americans are going to die and you're not, you're going to be blamed

00:44:21.660 for it.

00:44:22.000 And so he, he caved.

00:44:23.600 No, but I, sorry, just, I don't understand.

00:44:25.560 I'm, I'm not even arguing with you.

00:44:27.520 I just want to clarify what you're saying.

00:44:29.260 Which part of it was the scam part?

00:44:31.400 The scam was, uh, that's been confirmed that, you know, the, the, the six feet distance was

00:44:36.080 just made up. 0.99

00:44:37.020 Oh, lots of things we were told were bullshit. 0.99

00:44:39.740 And that the vaccine was going to be effective. 0.99

00:44:41.880 And it wasn't.

00:44:42.780 It wasn't.

00:44:43.400 Oh, I see.

00:44:43.620 They would say it was going to be effective for, uh, preventing illness and you can't

00:44:47.000 give it, you can't get it.

00:44:48.180 You can't give it, you can't get it.

00:44:49.420 And once you get it, you can't, then you're going to save grandma.

00:44:51.560 And then, and locking down schools was, was, was more detrimental to people.

00:44:55.960 Agreed.

00:44:55.980 So we're agreed on all of it.

00:44:57.040 That's the scam.

00:44:57.600 That's the scam.

00:44:58.360 Because again, this is like one of those terms, like the great replacement.

00:45:01.960 There is people who mean that there's a lot of immigration and now many cities in Western

00:45:06.940 Europe are not European anymore, demographically.

00:45:09.860 And there's other people who have another layer on top of it.

00:45:12.680 Oh yeah, well I don't have that layer.

00:45:13.420 But I would just say, see this, like the people who died, um, the people who are most susceptible

00:45:17.960 are like the people most susceptible to any flus.

00:45:20.140 Totally.

00:45:20.360 And these are people that, in the United States, the people who died, 80% were, were, were obese,

00:45:25.780 were morbidly obese.

00:45:26.840 And they had 3.4, 3.4 comorbidities.

00:45:31.320 All of this stuff, I agree with you.

00:45:33.100 So this is what caused the death of this.

00:45:35.280 And, and it was, you know, it was something that was manipulated.

00:45:38.020 I had a friend of mine at the NIH, uh, the National Institutes of Health, and I talked

00:45:42.120 to him July 3rd, uh, in 2020.

00:45:44.240 And I said, tell me what's happening.

00:45:45.600 And, um, he said to me, and it's in my book, you can do it, which is, you can do it, and

00:45:53.380 the subtitle is Scam Demi.

00:45:57.160 The real truth.

00:45:58.460 He said to me that, um, I said, what is going on?

00:46:01.720 Because he was hired by the government to go to the NIH.

00:46:04.160 He's a professor of medicine.

00:46:05.580 I won't use his name, but he said, um, receptor 26 looks a little sticky.

00:46:11.120 And I said, well, what is that?

00:46:15.800 And he said, it's, seems to be man-made, manipulated.

00:46:21.740 Sure. 1.00

00:46:22.280 And so what happened was it was able to, this thing was, they basically, these sick bastards 0.99

00:46:27.780 wanted to, they were shut down from this gain of research study here in the United States. 0.98

00:46:32.960 And they said, well, and they kept doing it anyway in, uh, in the Ukraine, incidentally.

00:46:37.400 And they also kept doing it in Wuhan and was paid by Fauci after Obama had shut it down

00:46:42.220 and they, and they kept it going.

00:46:44.280 And so it was manipulated.

00:46:45.580 And then something, you know, it, it, it got out just like they were transporting, the

00:46:50.440 CDC was transporting anthrax and some other, and, and, uh, smallpox in these little containers 0.99

00:46:55.180 and the fucking van crashed. 0.98

00:46:56.620 And that was luckily that it didn't cause a big, gigantic epidemic. 0.99

00:46:59.800 But the, the, the, the, the idea is that we can't, um, we have to be evidence-based on

00:47:06.700 all this.

00:47:07.640 Totally agree.

00:47:08.380 I just, the reason I'm, I picked up on it is I just want to clarify because a lot of

00:47:13.360 people who hear the term scandemic, what they think is you're saying nobody died, there

00:47:18.760 was no disease, et cetera, right?

00:47:20.380 Well, the people that, no, no, the people that died, the people most susceptible was interesting

00:47:25.160 because there were different strains of it.

00:47:26.560 So in Italy, you had, in, in the beginning of it, you had people getting very, very sick

00:47:30.220 with a particular type, with their blood type, that was in Italy.

00:47:33.520 That was very early.

00:47:34.660 That was the beginning of the shutdowns.

00:47:36.440 However, the shutdowns ended up being more harmful in the end.

00:47:40.220 And it was also Imperial College.

00:47:41.600 Agreed.

00:47:41.860 Thanks to you, you and your country.

00:47:43.120 No, no, no, no, no, no. 1.00

00:47:43.940 It was one, one dickhead. 1.00

00:47:45.440 One dickhead. 1.00

00:47:46.360 We're not taking responsibility for it. 0.99

00:47:47.760 So what happened, but that was funded by, by, by China.

00:47:50.060 And China would like to, uh, wouldn't like nothing more than to shut down this Western style, 0.82

00:47:55.620 um, idea of freedom and the exercise of it by our citizenry, because they don't want

00:48:02.500 China to, uh, they don't want their Chinese citizens knowing that there's a freer world

00:48:06.780 out there.

00:48:07.560 And so we have to have, um, you know, we have to have the truth and we have to have, and

00:48:13.700 think, make things evidence-based.

00:48:15.120 That's why I'm very excited about Robert Kennedy, um, joining this administration.

00:48:18.900 I mean, is he going to agree with everything from Trump?

00:48:20.360 No.

00:48:20.560 Is Trump going to try to do some stuff that's, that's probably out of bounds?

00:48:24.200 Absolutely.

00:48:25.160 Is he going to accomplish it?

00:48:26.460 Hopefully not.

00:48:27.580 Can we have some normalcy?

00:48:28.960 I would hope so.

00:48:29.960 I do think that, um, as a guy who got shot in the face, I would think he, there is some

00:48:36.180 humility there.

00:48:36.960 I don't see the same Trump as I saw before.

00:48:39.180 And I think he is concerned about his legacy.

00:48:41.860 I like Tulsi Gabbard a lot.

00:48:43.620 I got to spend some time with her.

00:48:45.540 I got to spend some time with Vivek Ramaswamy.

00:48:47.560 I've been a, uh, Robert Kennedy is a dear, dear friend and a lovely human being.

00:48:53.560 And I, I, I just don't think that, um, and I really like Vance.

00:48:57.960 So I think there's some good people there.

00:48:59.500 Yeah.

00:49:00.080 And, uh, and I think they're, they're going to want to do good things.

00:49:02.640 And I think they're also, the American people are expecting good things.

00:49:06.100 I think they need good things.

00:49:07.840 I think it's been such a tough time for the American people.

00:49:11.160 It has.

00:49:11.620 And it's been, it's been a time where, I mean, I really felt the stress and the strain

00:49:15.280 of people because I'm traveling, you know, not, not on private planes.

00:49:19.960 I'm traveling and I'm talking to people out there and I'm going to places and I stay after.

00:49:24.360 And sometimes I took questions in Florida, um, after a show.

00:49:28.780 I said, what are you feeling?

00:49:29.680 And everyone is so stressed out and they're tense.

00:49:31.880 So that's what the beautiful thing about this mandate of a victory.

00:49:35.000 And the fact that he, the reason why there's no fires and there's no protests and they're

00:49:40.420 not burning Seattle, one, the cops shut it down pretty quickly and a small little riot

00:49:46.360 there, uh, yesterday, but, or I'm sorry, a few days ago, but also it's a mandate.

00:49:52.640 He got the popular vote.

00:49:54.000 So they can't be pissed.

00:49:55.160 So they got to look at themselves.

00:49:56.300 And what happened after when Reagan was elected two terms and then it was Bush, it was three

00:50:01.700 terms and that's, what's going to have to happen so that the, the, the Democrats can lose their

00:50:05.160 extremists.

00:50:05.660 And then you end up with a moderate, like Bill Clinton, uh, you know, I'm a pro death penalty

00:50:11.360 Bill Clinton, you know, what the meaning of the word is, is.

00:50:15.820 And I, but I do think that was a centrist party and that was the only way they could gain

00:50:19.200 power.

00:50:19.520 And the only reason they gained power is because there were three parties at that time and

00:50:22.560 Ross Perot took away enough from the Republicans that Clinton got in, which ended up being,

00:50:27.200 you know, I don't think a bad thing for the country.

00:50:28.820 Yeah.

00:50:29.320 It was a good president in many ways.

00:50:30.600 Well, I think it, um, some good and some bad, uh, NAFTA was not, it ended up taking

00:50:36.420 away losing American jobs.

00:50:38.180 Um, I think that you have to, you have to run the course between affordable products,

00:50:42.280 but also who's going to buy those things if no one's making any money.

00:50:46.220 So what happened in the late 1970s was, you know, inflation that kept going up, the job

00:50:52.700 money did no longer, that did no longer keep up with inflation.

00:50:55.720 So what happened was the, uh, the average worker to keep up with buying homes and buying

00:51:01.100 cars and buying TVs or back then video players or Sony beta machines, they had to borrow money

00:51:07.320 from their home and they lived off that.

00:51:09.860 But when that collapsed, you had a whole group of people that were just lost.

00:51:13.660 And, um, and that collapse happened in 2008.

00:51:17.540 That was, uh, something that, um, I'm, I think could be prevented again.

00:51:23.180 I think that was about to happen again.

00:51:24.740 And I think the economy, what we saw this week, the first week of, um, president Trump's, uh,

00:51:30.940 his president elect, you're seeing the stock market responding very favorably, which is

00:51:35.280 going to help everything.

00:51:35.780 The dollar just went up tremendously against everywhere.

00:51:38.320 So I think it's, uh, it's a boost of confidence and it's going to be a boost of confidence around

00:51:42.080 the world.

00:51:42.980 And coming just with, since we started talking about Hollywood, one of the things you obviously

00:51:48.020 experienced is that your opinions weren't popular.

00:51:53.160 Yeah.

00:51:53.760 Yeah.

00:51:54.460 Yeah.

00:51:54.860 Do you think, uh, this is going to sound like an incredibly naive question, but do you think,

00:51:59.440 do you think these people are now going to look at it and kind of go, oh, maybe I was 0.99

00:52:04.680 the asshole here? 0.99

00:52:08.220 No, I think, um, I think they're angry. 1.00

00:52:11.220 I think they're pissed off.

00:52:12.020 I think people here in Hollywood hate me.

00:52:15.640 They hate me with a passion.

00:52:18.360 Absolutely.

00:52:19.200 Why?

00:52:19.820 Um, because in some small way of small group of us and along with, uh, you know, Elon Musk,

00:52:28.780 God bless him, you know, Robert Kennedy, it was enough to turn the selection.

00:52:32.900 I'm not saying I had, I had very little to do with it, but in some ways that speaking

00:52:37.220 up and supporting Robert Kennedy and then supporting him very, uh, I mean, that's how

00:52:41.460 I knew his third party candidacy was in trouble when I was, you know, his, his most famous

00:52:45.940 supporter.

00:52:47.100 Oh man, it's not going to go well for you, Robert.

00:52:48.940 I'm sorry.

00:52:49.440 Uh, but I do think, yeah, they, they don't want, um, they want the perception as these

00:52:55.580 are, we're doing this for everybody, but they're not.

00:52:57.840 They're, they're absolutely completely out of touch with the average American, what they

00:53:02.880 go through.

00:53:03.620 Oprah Winfrey, when she's going and talking about nobody cared what she said because they

00:53:07.620 know that her life is like, what gave her the opportunity to become a billionaire was

00:53:11.740 this society. 0.99

00:53:12.880 And here she is shitting on people trying to make the best out of it. 0.99

00:53:17.040 And I would say that that's amazing thing about the United States. 1.00

00:53:19.600 The difference between England and my experience is that like people root for you to be fucking 0.99

00:53:24.160 rich here. 0.99

00:53:25.020 Oh yeah.

00:53:25.620 People don't in the UK.

00:53:27.220 That's why we love America. 0.99

00:53:29.300 I mean, we got like, fuck yeah, Oprah, you're a billionaire. 0.98

00:53:31.800 God, now, now, but I'm telling you, it was getting to a point where people are getting 0.99

00:53:35.500 pissed off and they, they had, they showed it at the polls.

00:53:39.160 It's like, you know what?

00:53:40.000 You have everything, these policies that you're, you're allowing at the border and these people

00:53:43.740 coming in, it is not affecting you and your gated mansion with all your security, but

00:53:50.020 it is affecting us.

00:53:51.360 It is affecting the, the movie stars, um, who don't have tens of millions of dollars.

00:53:58.480 I mean, I played poverty.

00:54:00.440 I mean, I have like my gated community only have, I only have one guard in my gate.

00:54:04.140 I have nobody in front of my, it's my gated, my five cars.

00:54:07.080 There's only one person guarding it.

00:54:08.620 I mean, somebody could easily come in if it's a Venezuelan gang.

00:54:11.740 And by the way, these Venezuelan gangs, I, I, I was writing jokes for Trump with some 1.00

00:54:16.700 friends of mine for this, um, Al Smith dinner.

00:54:19.440 And I said, maybe this one.

00:54:20.500 Not for Tony Hinchcliffe.

00:54:23.360 Somebody, Robert Kennedy called me.

00:54:24.960 He said, we should have had you do this.

00:54:26.980 You know, I don't know why we didn't call you instead.

00:54:29.900 Uh, there's 300,000 Puerto Ricans in Pennsylvania.

00:54:33.440 I hope this doesn't cost us the election.

00:54:37.260 Sorry, Robert.

00:54:38.200 But, um, no, but one of the jokes I said, like, we have these Venezuelan gangs coming 1.00

00:54:42.000 over here, taking away victims from American gangs.

00:54:45.180 We need to support American jobs, American gangs. 1.00

00:54:48.860 And, um, you know, um, but I, I don't, you would, it would require a delivery for him to

00:54:54.000 do that.

00:54:54.340 But I thought he did pretty good.

00:54:55.560 He's funny.

00:54:56.480 That's the thing.

00:54:57.360 When he says I'm going to be dictator, well, maybe on day one, I'll be, you know, that was 0.98

00:55:00.540 a joke that wasn't saying he's going to fucking turn into, you know, Stalin on us. 0.97

00:55:06.020 So, but, but yeah, Hollywood hates me and that's okay. 0.97

00:55:08.640 And I hope that they forgive me.

00:55:10.120 And I hope that I get into a position with my new movie and a media company that I'll

00:55:14.900 get to hire them.

00:55:15.960 No grudges.

00:55:16.980 I hold no grudges against anybody in Hollywood.

00:55:19.440 I would happily, even though I've, you know, I went public against all the late night guys,

00:55:23.740 cause it was true.

00:55:24.360 I said, you know, during the, during the pandemic, I'll call it pandemic.

00:55:27.380 Sorry.

00:55:27.460 I mean, it sets you off.

00:55:29.600 Actually, you didn't set me off.

00:55:31.140 I just think it's worth clarifying these things so people know exactly what you mean.

00:55:34.640 I think so too.

00:55:35.080 So they then don't go, oh, he doesn't believe COVID happened or whatever.

00:55:39.280 That's the only reason I would clarify.

00:55:39.980 I think that's, I think you're right to bring that up.

00:55:41.720 And I, you know, I talked about this in my act where I said like, you know, cause it was

00:55:44.880 very scary cause they tried to do this before to close society down before with, um, what

00:55:51.180 was it called?

00:55:52.340 Uh, the, the, the pandemic of the, the 2000 and it was like the swine flu, right?

00:55:57.260 Oh, SARS.

00:55:58.140 You're talking about SARS.

00:55:59.020 Yeah.

00:55:59.140 And the first thing they got to shut down, but like 50 people died from the vaccine and

00:56:02.900 they shut it down.

00:56:03.860 Whereas they didn't really necessarily care or check to what happened this time.

00:56:07.140 Yeah.

00:56:07.440 So that's it.

00:56:07.800 You know, and everybody, they didn't fall for it then because they didn't have the

00:56:10.700 phones.

00:56:11.380 They didn't have the information and you can scare the shit out of people enough with 0.73

00:56:14.300 your phones. 0.62

00:56:14.800 Remember those signs that we had signs all over the freeway said, you know, mask up America, 1.00

00:56:19.420 take the fucking shot, you know, save grandma. 0.99

00:56:22.120 And the phones were scary every 30 seconds. 1.00

00:56:24.140 It's like, Oh no, this guy's parachute didn't open and he died of COVID.

00:56:28.460 So, so you kind of show the exaggeration and, um, and I, I just want, um, you know, I want

00:56:37.320 people to come from a place of, of evidence-based next time and let's, let's make decisions.

00:56:42.620 And I would just say in general, we have to stop this.

00:56:46.540 I mean, I am an opponent now of, of vaccinology because, and I talk about it in my book, you

00:56:51.580 can do it, uh, available now on Hashtag Press, that the theory, there was a lot of bad ideas

00:56:57.220 at the time in medicine.

00:56:59.160 You know, there's thalidomide that ended up, there was going to be for a woman, you know, 1.00

00:57:03.200 for, so she wouldn't have, um, morning sickness.

00:57:05.660 Morning sickness.

00:57:06.120 And then all of a sudden it, you know, made flippers out of arms for these, these poor

00:57:10.280 children.

00:57:11.060 And so they stopped it.

00:57:12.360 And so, you know, they didn't put in the measles vaccine and you can look this up too

00:57:16.080 until there was no more deaths from measles in the United States.

00:57:18.840 Cause what happened was the vax, the theory of vaccinology, this won't be, you won't be

00:57:24.680 able to put this on YouTube now, but the theory of vaccinology, what happened is it piggybacked

00:57:28.860 on the backs of what was really successful.

00:57:31.560 And if you look at the CDC, they'll say the biggest contribution to end disease was toilets,

00:57:38.820 sanitation, clean drinking water, nutrition.

00:57:41.840 But the, so the success of that, the theory of vaccinology piggybacked onto that into the

00:57:47.740 mid 20th century.

00:57:49.340 And so that, that was a, um, and like measles, I said, the deaths of measles disappeared.

00:57:53.060 So you had, you have, there's a wonderful guy, Roman Bistrianic, who wrote called Dissolving

00:57:58.520 Illusions.

00:57:58.900 And if anyone's interested in this, I recommend them getting that book because I don't think

00:58:03.100 we should, and as we're moving forward now with Robert Kennedy is going to be, um, overseeing

00:58:08.320 hopefully the NIH or at least overseeing the different, um, departments here.

00:58:12.700 And hopefully it'll, it'll spread to the UK as well.

00:58:15.500 We need to come to health from a position of health, not inducing disease to gain health,

00:58:20.580 but inducing health for more health.

00:58:22.600 And I think we need to do that because now we have children in America.

00:58:25.960 And what, what really got to me was, and why I got involved in medical freedom and why

00:58:30.380 I got excommunicated from Hollywood originally, because Hollywood doesn't want anybody to,

00:58:35.940 because they're scared.

00:58:36.960 They're all scared here.

00:58:38.580 Um, the executives are scared.

00:58:39.860 The actors are scared.

00:58:40.540 The producers, the directors, they, they don't want any reasons for it to not get hired.

00:58:43.460 And you could, if you're a liberal, like, you know, Mehdi Hassan, well, you can say that, 0.96

00:58:48.400 you know, homosexuals are pedophiles and what you're liberal. 1.00

00:58:50.440 Okay. 1.00

00:58:50.600 We'll let you back in.

00:58:51.400 But if you're really, if you're not, and if they can get you, you're out and you're out

00:58:55.960 forever.

00:58:56.560 And all these executives, they don't want to be involved with anything that's controversial

00:59:00.160 because their jobs, they don't act like I do.

00:59:02.240 I want to do the funniest joke.

00:59:03.140 I can.

00:59:03.580 I want to challenge my audience and make them laugh at stuff they're not hearing everywhere

00:59:07.000 else.

00:59:07.320 Um, the executives and the people at the, you know, streaming services are making decisions.

00:59:13.300 They don't decide what's the best movie or TV show we can do.

00:59:16.180 It's what can delay my inevitable firing the longest.

00:59:20.200 You used to know these guys, right?

00:59:22.260 Yeah.

00:59:22.640 So what happened to them?

00:59:24.300 Well, I think.

00:59:24.940 Were they always like that?

00:59:25.980 You know, that's the cute thing about Hollywood.

00:59:27.700 And why, like, I was lucky because I never got super rich.

00:59:30.000 Yeah.

00:59:31.200 I mean, I, I did, I did fine, but I never got like super uber wealthy.

00:59:35.640 And so I needed to work, which ended up being really good for me.

00:59:38.940 Um, but also once they, the thing about Hollywood, which is very, uh, subverse, you know, it subverts

00:59:46.640 you.

00:59:47.180 They're not going to ask for all of your soul at one take, you know, they're going to ask

00:59:52.900 all your, well, integrity.

00:59:54.620 They go, you know what, you know, just a little bit, you know, that's why, like, interesting

00:59:58.220 thing with Jerry Seinfeld, they offered him a hundred million when that was a hundred

01:00:00.640 million to do one more series of, uh.

01:00:04.960 Seinfeld.

01:00:05.320 Seinfeld.

01:00:05.880 And the thing is about Seinfeld was really interesting because they only did one pilot

01:00:08.580 and then they did three.

01:00:09.980 It was like, there's never been a pickup of just three.

01:00:11.480 And then it was six and then 13. 1.00

01:00:12.940 So they got four years to figure out their fucking show. 0.99

01:00:14.840 The beginning wasn't that great. 1.00

01:00:16.060 They didn't know what they were doing.

01:00:16.900 Then they, they had three years to figure it out.

01:00:19.340 You can figure it out.

01:00:20.040 A smart guy, like he's a genius, Jerry Seinfeld and Larry David, they'd figured it out.

01:00:23.680 So, but it got four years to do it, but they offered him a hundred million.

01:00:26.220 He said, no.

01:00:27.460 And I think that's, that is very few people can do that.

01:00:30.640 Of course, he already had millions, a hundred millions already.

01:00:33.080 So, but they will, they'll, they'll take that.

01:00:35.040 They can just do this one.

01:00:36.100 Jackie Gleason was one of the greatest, um, a guy who invented our sitcoms over here.

01:00:40.960 He, um, they said, you can make this funny, Jackie.

01:00:44.180 And it was a game show.

01:00:45.240 And he said, you'll make it funny.

01:00:46.800 Yeah.

01:00:47.220 That's how they get to you.

01:00:48.380 That's what Peter Sellers too.

01:00:49.600 They gave him these horrible scripts in the sixties.

01:00:52.560 Like you'll be a blue matador, you know, you'll make it funny. 1.00

01:00:57.620 And then he would go and he was just fucking awful movies. 0.96

01:00:59.500 You know, they, they were all stoned on, I love you, Alice B. 0.98

01:01:02.500 Toklas, you know, it's an unwatchable movie, but he, you know, he's great.

01:01:05.740 If you love him when I was a kid, I love him.

01:01:07.540 Um, but that's how they get to you.

01:01:09.260 You'll make it funny. 1.00

01:01:10.340 So Jackie Gleason did this show and it was a piece of shit. 0.99

01:01:13.380 And every, it was just, it got horrible, uh, reviews when people reviewed things at that 0.98

01:01:18.480 time and he apologized the next week, said, I'm sorry.

01:01:23.460 I would find you a star who will apologize for something. 1.00

01:01:26.020 That's a piece of crap. 0.99

01:01:27.680 Find you a star that'll do that. 1.00

01:01:29.240 You know, I don't do Spigelow too.

01:01:30.920 Wasn't that great.

01:01:31.520 Didn't come out that as great as I wanted.

01:01:32.760 It was good jokes, but like, yeah, it didn't come out that great.

01:01:36.200 It happens.

01:01:36.980 I took the money though.

01:01:38.460 I took the money.

01:01:39.580 Well, but with these late night guys, right?

01:01:42.060 I, I don't understand what that means.

01:01:44.140 Do you think they became corrupted by, I think that they had to go along with what the liberals

01:01:49.200 were saying.

01:01:49.720 I don't think you could, they weren't allowed to go against the government policy.

01:01:52.800 You couldn't go against what the, the, the Democrats were absolutely closed.

01:01:58.980 You could not critique Biden.

01:02:00.700 You could not make fun of Biden's age.

01:02:02.440 One of the jokes I had was, you know, if Biden was a dog, he'd put him down. 0.99

01:02:05.280 People were like, they would get up and fucking walk out. 0.99

01:02:07.380 How dare you? 0.99

01:02:08.680 You know, he is, he is our president. 0.60

01:02:10.620 He's not brain impaired. 0.93

01:02:12.060 Until we say he's brain impaired.

01:02:15.140 So that, I mean, so, but they really would get angry.

01:02:17.600 I mean, I had people, and I didn't realize how like liberal Omaha was, but I remember

01:02:20.600 like 30 people get like, whoa, these people are pissed.

01:02:23.780 And if you went against what the, the government narrative at the time and liberals, you know,

01:02:29.620 they were running everything.

01:02:30.660 So if you went against it, they couldn't.

01:02:32.780 So my, but, and at the same time you had, I mean, they were awful.

01:02:36.520 I mean, Jimmy Kimmel said the most horrible thing.

01:02:39.560 And same with Howard Stern.

01:02:40.600 It was absolutely dreadful what they said.

01:02:43.060 Like if you are, hey, if you have a heart problem, you're vaccinated, come right in this,

01:02:47.040 come on, come on in the hospital.

01:02:48.380 If you're not, sorry, Wheezy.

01:02:50.220 In other words, die in the hallway because you're choosing not to get an experimental

01:02:55.860 gene therapy that was developed at warped speed.

01:03:02.020 And you don't want to take, so that you die in the hallway.

01:03:04.560 I thought that was a low, the low watermark for comedy in the 21st century.

01:03:09.800 But what about this?

01:03:10.860 Forget the COVID and the vaccine.

01:03:12.520 I know it's important to you.

01:03:13.440 And actually, you know, Francis and I both were very critical of what.

01:03:17.280 Are you talking about comedy in general?

01:03:19.080 Well, I just mean that there's a kind of clustering of opinion.

01:03:22.080 Like you, you made the point that you, there is no uniqueness to anything.

01:03:25.940 Well, they wouldn't go after the power base.

01:03:27.340 I mean, until Jon Stewart sat next to Stephen Colbert and said, you know, the Wuhan virus

01:03:32.140 probably came from the Wuhan Institute.

01:03:33.900 And they were like, what?

01:03:35.420 Because nobody was allowed to talk about that.

01:03:36.800 We all got kicked off Twitter.

01:03:38.320 We got kicked off Facebook because of saying that.

01:03:41.280 We were all excommunicated from the church of liberalism.

01:03:44.880 And he was one of their own.

01:03:48.180 And so he was able to say it.

01:03:49.980 He was big enough to say it.

01:03:51.340 Yeah.

01:03:51.580 But I guess, I'm just, Jon Stewart to me is a very good example on this Tony Hinchcliffe

01:03:55.380 thing.

01:03:55.680 He came out and defended Tony.

01:03:57.160 Yeah.

01:03:57.620 He defended Tony.

01:03:58.400 Yeah.

01:03:58.900 You know, Bill Maher.

01:04:00.520 You know Bill Maher.

01:04:01.740 You may agree, disagree, whatever.

01:04:03.120 But you know, that's him.

01:04:04.780 But Bill Maher is another Trump.

01:04:06.400 I mean, there's something that happened with Trump and happened with liberalism.

01:04:10.380 And for people who are, I mean, when they say Trump derangement syndrome, I always thought

01:04:13.520 that was an exaggeration. 0.98

01:04:14.600 But no, it makes people crazy.

01:04:17.080 And I really think, like, I was in an elevator with Alec Baldwin, Donald Trump, Melania, and

01:04:23.240 is Alec Baldwin's wife.

01:04:24.440 And then my wife were all laughing in the elevator 10 years ago at Saturday Night Live's 40th anniversary.

01:04:29.560 And then, you know, they were all loving him. 0.99

01:04:31.900 Oprah loved him and everyone, until he ran for president and they fucking hated him. 0.99

01:04:35.340 He suddenly became the antichrist. 0.98

01:04:37.380 He became, so it was just, it was a thing that spun out.

01:04:41.540 And I remember a friend of mine was an international banker.

01:04:44.360 He was having, he was, you know, at a function with the head of the executive, the publisher

01:04:51.540 in chief of the New York Times.

01:04:52.900 And this was, I guess, four years ago.

01:04:57.100 And they, he said, can you, is it possible for you to be objective about the coverage

01:05:05.580 of Donald Trump?

01:05:06.340 And he said, it is my, it is my solemn duty to make sure that he does not get elected

01:05:13.740 again to the, to the presidency.

01:05:17.260 And it's like, whoa, I mean, that's like, that's the guy who's the New York Times.

01:05:20.420 So, so they just, it's going to have to, they're going to have to appeal if they want to continue

01:05:24.280 as a business, if they want to try to be, I would just tell people there's, there's

01:05:28.580 California and then there's New York, but then there's this, this is under 47 states

01:05:32.800 and you got, you know, Hawaii is basically an extension of California, but then you got

01:05:35.800 Alaska, you know, it's hard to get to.

01:05:38.360 It's basically, you know, you can basically Russia, but you have, you have this whole group

01:05:42.540 of people that don't feel that they're being served to.

01:05:44.400 Nobody in that 48 watches, late night TV.

01:05:47.520 Yeah.

01:05:47.800 I mean, very few people that would, they don't care.

01:05:49.840 I mean, those shows are going to be gone.

01:05:51.180 They won't exist in two years.

01:05:52.560 Yeah.

01:05:54.220 Rob, what a pleasure it has been having you on the show.

01:05:57.320 Well, thank you for having me.

01:05:58.420 I'm sorry it was so serious this time.

01:06:00.080 No, it was great.

01:06:01.000 It was great.

01:06:01.500 Serious and light at the same time.

01:06:03.260 Our final question is always the same.

01:06:04.780 What's the one thing we're not talking about that we really should be?

01:06:08.040 Before Rob answers the final question at the end of the interview, make sure you click

01:06:11.840 the link in the description, it'll take you to our sub stack where you'll see this.

01:06:15.980 Who was funniest, Steve Martin or Bill Murray?

01:06:19.200 Why was Juice Bigelow, two, not as good as the first? 1.00

01:06:23.960 Why do people with fuck you money not say fuck you often enough? 0.99

01:06:28.620 The unbelievably delicious food at Aaron Juan Grocery Store. 1.00

01:06:40.460 That's right down the street.

01:06:42.580 We'll take you there.

01:06:43.360 We'll take you.

01:06:44.020 We'll take you.

01:06:44.480 I feel like I need to go there.

01:06:45.680 The new, I would just say that I'm, the one thing I would just say that we, I'm grateful

01:06:51.780 to, you know, it was English humor that was, that was the high watermark of comedy in

01:06:56.900 the 20th century, the, the Saturday night live would never have existed without money

01:07:00.860 Python, would never, never have.

01:07:02.940 We didn't, I mean, it was, they created something that was just for them and that's, I mean,

01:07:07.720 trying to make jokes that, to make you and your friends laugh and that's it and hopefully

01:07:11.600 it'll bring other people to it.

01:07:12.720 That kind of powerful silliness is what we, I think is what we're going to get back to

01:07:16.840 in comedy.

01:07:17.740 People are so sick of being serious. 0.85

01:07:19.680 They want to laugh and be silly again. 0.67

01:07:21.180 And I think that's going to come. 0.63

01:07:23.160 Amen.

01:07:23.520 All right, head on over to Substack where we ask Rob your questions.

01:07:29.540 Was SNL's participation in the presidential elections always as one-sided as it's been

01:07:34.880 in the past couple of cycles?
