00:00:00.000 When I went to Brazil and I was with Javier Bolsonaro and his family and we did a three-hour
00:00:05.920 interview at the end of the interview they came in tapped on his back he says they're getting
00:00:09.480 arrested he had to finish the interview because he was getting arrested Rob you remember this when
00:00:13.100 we were in where were we at in Brazil what's Brazil yeah Brazil yeah right in the headquarters
00:00:18.580 you know the where all the politicians are they build the city like a communist city so nobody
00:00:23.800 wanted to go there miles away from everybody else but the thing that we looked at there is
00:00:29.200 How much the other side, with this guy named Alexandre de Moraes, who was like the most powerful guy in Brazil.
00:00:35.340 He's like the Supreme Court god that everybody fears.
00:00:38.000 You've seen his face.
00:00:39.580 You know who he is.
00:00:40.420 They control Senate. 0.99
00:00:41.340 They control House.
00:00:42.660 And he couldn't do nothing.
00:00:44.360 And they fought very hard.
00:00:45.780 So you're going into a market where you will be facing a lot of challenges.
00:00:52.480 And you're going to need some people that are going to want to have massive change in the state.
00:00:56.360 Right now, the polls, if we look at the polls, as of right now,
00:00:59.360 I think you're at 21 points is where we have.
00:01:03.260 When you look at the polls, I think you're at 21.
00:01:05.740 Yeah, I think 22, something like that.
00:01:08.600 22 is where you're at as of right now.
00:01:10.380 Then you've got Becerra 21, then Steyer 15, then Bianco 5,
00:01:14.420 and you've got the rest of the camp, Katie Porter.
00:01:16.360 But the reality of it is if one of these guys drops out,
00:01:19.280 you're all of a sudden second by, you know, if you go to Calci's report,
00:01:22.820 Calci gives a complete different number if you go to Calci.
00:01:25.100 Yeah, for the winner. 1.00
00:01:25.780 now she have years at 65 stires at 23 7 and you're at 9.4 percent and you know vegas doesn't lose
00:01:32.240 money and that's 35 million dollars of money that's been wagered yeah so you need some major
00:01:37.700 major like spencer pratt word got out that genie bus is supporting him this person is supporting
00:01:44.540 oh my god all these different people that are supporting him have you gotten some weird calls
00:01:49.020 has arnold called you have you spoken to some of these guys i know arnold well i've known him for
00:01:53.180 years yeah have you had a conversation with him not recently but we will we know each other well
00:01:58.880 and and I know his team very well um do you have a relationship with Newsom as well I do know
00:02:04.540 Kevin yeah no I don't think it's a very cordial one anymore because I've been you know holding
00:02:10.140 him responsible was it at one point cordial well here's the thing is that we yeah because we we
00:02:16.460 had some friends in common those first two years that we were here I talked at Stanford and we had
00:02:20.980 some very good friends there, friends of the Newsom's from a family point of view.
00:02:25.600 So that's how I know them.
00:02:27.620 And that's long before I had anything to do with California politics,
00:02:33.440 when he wasn't governor then.
00:02:35.960 So I think that what you're describing is exactly right.
00:02:39.040 Here's how I see it.
00:02:41.180 Right now we've got this governor's race, which is because of this top two system,
00:02:46.820 which means that the top two candidates go forward regardless of party it makes the whole thing kind
00:02:52.560 of unclear and messy and the entire conversation not the entire but a lot of the conversation
00:02:57.820 is actually about math and who's in the top two and is it going to be too democratic is it going
00:03:03.240 to be true rather than the merits and the ideas and and all of that once we're in the general
00:03:12.560 election scenario which we will be in a couple of weeks yep and it does look like i mean i don't
00:03:17.380 take anything for granted i'm working even harder these last two weeks than the last year but it you
00:03:22.580 know we're feeling confident but you know still got to win it people have to vote but let's just
00:03:28.780 assume i'm in the top two and there's one other democrat looks like it's going to be javier
00:03:33.020 becerra then it's a very different contest then it's a real you've got a clarity there
00:03:39.420 What are we going to do?
00:03:40.720 Are we going to keep going with this?
00:03:42.500 Another four years of the same direction?
00:03:44.960 And by the way, there's no one who,
00:03:47.600 Javier Becerra, who's their leading candidate right now,
00:03:50.000 he's kind of the living embodiment
00:03:51.860 of more of the same Democrat machine.
00:03:55.300 He's 36 years a career politician.
00:03:58.700 I mean, he's done nothing else.
00:04:00.000 He's a creature of the machine.
00:04:03.640 In the LA mayoral race,
00:04:05.260 you're already at that stage,
00:04:06.980 this kind of gladiatorial contest
00:04:09.200 because it's just Spencer against Karen Bass, basically.
00:04:12.080 Nitya Rahman is really imploding.
00:04:14.660 And so there's a clarity there in L.A.,
00:04:17.400 which we don't yet have in the governor's race,
00:04:19.940 but soon we will.
00:04:21.480 And I'm very confident that we'll get,
00:04:23.680 you know, you're already seeing it,
00:04:25.520 people who've never supported...
00:04:27.240 I mean, Sergey Brin is a good example.
00:04:30.020 He's supporting me.
00:04:32.080 He's also supported...
00:04:33.260 And there's a lot of people who, in California,
00:04:35.540 have bought this narrative
00:04:38.040 that a Republican can't win. 0.98
00:04:42.060 So the best shot is a less crazy Democrat.
00:04:46.260 And that's why there was a lot of support
00:04:47.700 in the business community for this guy, Matt Mahan,
00:04:50.300 who's the mayor of San Jose.
00:04:51.840 But he's gone nowhere.
00:04:54.560 And so I'm feeling confident
00:04:56.760 that once it's me against Becerra,
00:05:00.680 or even more so, me against Tom Steyer,
00:05:03.160 you're going to see a lot of support
00:05:04.800 who so many people are not not republicans they say we can't go on like this i'm definitely seeing
00:05:10.800 that in la how many big myself you know hollywood people how many hollywood people are calling you
00:05:15.720 and saying look a lot a lot and big names yes yes that would be seen as a liberal yes yes and
00:05:22.820 they're saying they would like to support and some have i mean some have co-hosted events for
00:05:26.740 me and and such as well well i i don't want to look they said co-hosted event is a public name
00:05:32.920 so it's not it's not it's a private okay larry david's wife okay actually david you know larry
00:05:38.700 david is not by anyone's um standard or conservative exactly yeah and there was and
00:05:45.580 you know so she absolutely there you are ashley and so and there are others who i don't want to
00:05:52.540 say because they haven't got to that point of saying it publicly but they've called you and
00:05:58.800 spoke yes yes and we've had meetings and i feel and in the sports world as well actually and i
00:06:05.340 feel very confident that once we're past the primary and it really is that clear choice
00:06:10.440 that it's going to be a whole different situation and the whole thing that i'm saying is
00:06:16.680 i'm not an ideologue i'm not a tribal kind of person going back to where we started i really am
00:06:23.480 open happy to sit down with anyone work with anyone it's just i mean it's an overused phrase 0.89
00:06:28.820 it really is just common sense let's just stop doing stupid things that make everything so
00:06:33.820 expensive and so difficult when we set out to create a shoe that blends comfort function and 0.94
00:06:40.160 luxury we had the choice to make it fast we had the choice to make it cheap we chose neither
00:06:47.000 Instead, we chose Tuscaneiro.
00:06:49.280 We chose true Italian craftsmanship, each pair touched by 50 skilled hands.
00:06:54.240 We chose patience, spending two years perfecting every detail, and we chose the finest quality at every step.
00:07:02.140 Introducing the Future Looks Bright collection.
00:07:05.860 Not rushed, not disposable, not ordinary.
00:07:10.180 Rather, intentional, luxurious, timeless.
