Transcript
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.
00:00:45.780
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,
00:01:03.260
When you look at the polls, I think you're at 21.
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.
00:01:25.780
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.
00:02:27.620
And that's long before I had anything to do with California politics,
00:02:35.960
So I think that what you're describing is exactly right.
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
00:03:47.600
Javier Becerra, who's their leading candidate right now,
00:04:09.200
because it's just Spencer against Karen Bass, basically.
00:04:17.400
which we don't yet have in the governor's race,
00:04:33.260
And there's a lot of people who, in California,
00:04:47.700
in the business community for this guy, Matt Mahan,
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
00:06:49.280
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.
