Transcript

00:00:00.000 President Trump was in Israel this morning, and he's up there giving the speech.
00:00:06.660 And you see Bibi sitting right there.
00:00:09.080 You see everybody around the world is sitting there saying,
00:00:12.200 is this actually going to be happening?
00:00:14.260 You have 20 hostages that are officially released.
00:00:17.480 I believe we have all the hostages back in Israel, if I'm not mistaken, Rob.
00:00:23.100 I think all 20 are out.
00:00:24.620 And we're going to show you a couple glimpses of these messages that he gave,
00:00:27.420 and then I'll come to the panel, Adam Kroll.
00:00:30.680 I'm going to start off with you first before anybody else.
00:00:32.760 Here's President Trump this morning in Israel. Go for it.
00:00:34.960 Let me also convey my tremendous appreciation for all of the nations of the Arab and Muslim world
00:00:41.920 that came together to press Hamas, to set the hostages free, and to send them home.
00:00:48.240 We had a lot of help. We had a lot of help from a lot of people that you wouldn't suspect.
00:00:52.660 And I want to thank them very much for that.
00:00:54.380 It's an incredible triumph for Israel and the world to have all of these nations working together
00:01:01.360 as partners in peace.
00:01:03.840 And it's pretty unusual for you to see that, but it happened in this case.
00:01:08.340 This was a very unusual point in time, a brilliant point in time.
00:01:14.240 Generations from now, this will be remembered as the moment that everything began to change,
00:01:20.620 and change very much for the better. Like the USA right now, it will be the golden age of Israel
00:01:28.380 and the golden age of the Middle East. It's going to work together.
00:01:33.140 You can pause it right there. Adam, how big of a deal is this?
00:01:36.580 It's a big deal. I mean, it's a big deal that a lot of people don't want to give them credit for.
00:01:41.120 Obviously, we spoke to that a little bit at the top of the show.
00:01:45.280 It's interesting because I've been studying this because I'm from California.
00:01:50.720 In California, we have process people. People want to talk and talk and talk.
00:01:56.060 It's always a seat at the table, people treated with dignity.
00:02:00.200 Nobody's illegal, but nothing gets done.
00:02:02.780 It's just the homeless need to be treated with dignity and compassion,
00:02:06.740 and then 10 years goes by, more homeless. We talk about everything.
00:02:11.800 He does everything. Because his background is commercial, builder, real estate guys.
00:02:18.720 And my background is building as well.
00:02:20.980 And anyone whose background is in building is always in a hurry.
00:02:25.360 So they show up and they go, okay, the slab is poured.
00:02:30.560 Where's the framers? Why don't we frame it?
00:02:32.320 They go, we can't put the windows in until we frame.
00:02:34.880 Well, where are the windows? Where are the frames?
00:02:36.740 It's a constant, you can't do this until you do that.
00:02:40.000 And you know he spent his whole life walking around job sites going,
00:02:43.540 where's the marble? Where's the tile? It's held up.
00:02:46.200 It's at the port. Well, get it over here. Let's go.
00:02:48.880 Because in building, you can't, everything is waiting on the next thing.
00:02:54.780 The foundation has to go, then the framing, then the steel guys,
00:02:58.680 then the interior wall, windows, roofing.
00:03:00.580 It's always, we're waiting on the next sub.
00:03:03.860 So he comes in here and you could see it when he came to California after the fires.
00:03:09.080 He sits there with Karen Bass.
00:03:11.480 She's a process person.
00:03:13.020 She wants to talk about stuff, not do stuff.
00:03:15.520 She wants to go to Ghana and get in ceremonial garb and dance.
00:03:19.340 He comes and sits down and goes, what's going on?
00:03:21.640 We should be starting now.
00:03:22.960 People should be clearing their own lots.
00:03:24.740 And she's like, whoa, slow down, slow down, pump the brakes.
00:03:28.720 Because all they want to do is talk.
00:03:31.160 They don't want to do anything.
00:03:32.220 Kamala Harris, does she want to close the border?
00:03:34.720 She just want to talk.
00:03:36.400 And the process people get upset when the people who do stuff show up
00:03:41.520 and start going, what's going on?
00:03:43.220 Why is this taking so long?
00:03:44.520 They get pissed off and their plan is not, we'll do stuff faster.
00:03:48.840 It's shut that guy up and get him the hell off this job site.
00:03:52.140 By the way, what a point, Tom, when you think about that.
00:03:55.580 The value of urgency.
00:03:56.940 Because if you work in a place, like you go from a big company,
00:04:00.580 corporation, where it's all process.
00:04:02.740 I got to talk to John.
00:04:03.680 Then I got to get it by the program.
00:04:04.760 Then I got to get it again.
00:04:05.360 Then again.
00:04:05.880 And then you run a startup mentality.
00:04:07.360 It's like, no, no, make one phone call.
00:04:08.500 I got it.
00:04:08.960 Call him.
00:04:09.240 I approve the goal and get it done.
00:04:10.580 You're dealing with a startup CEO, startup founder.
00:04:12.800 So you either have to be able to go at his pace
00:04:15.100 or you're going to be left behind when he's going at the space.
00:04:17.460 By the way, I'm going to read this story.
00:04:19.420 Banners welcoming back.
00:04:20.580 Hostages strung up near hospitals.
00:04:22.140 As Israel prepares for their return.
00:04:24.700 Rob, I don't know if you have this video or not.
00:04:26.680 Watch this clip, folks.
00:04:27.720 Go ahead.
00:04:35.280 This is just B-roll of actual Israel right now.
00:04:38.220 But I also have.
00:04:39.020 They put American flags everywhere.
00:04:41.720 Wow.
00:04:42.080 Good for them.
00:04:43.240 And there's also this from CNN.
00:04:44.880 There was this banner that was displayed on the beach in Tel Aviv, a giant thank you.
00:04:54.240 Just to kind of speak to the moment, Sarah, of what kind of Israel is bracing for right now.
00:04:59.100 Look at the face.
00:04:59.660 The profile.
00:05:00.020 He's expected to be here.
00:05:00.700 He's only going to be here for less than five hours on the ground in Jerusalem.
00:05:04.960 But here he's speaking to the members of the parliament.
00:05:06.580 Free the hostages?
00:05:08.060 I don't get it.
00:05:10.480 And partaking in that as we see him also standing alongside the prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu.
00:05:17.080 That's pretty cool to see this.
00:05:18.500 Adam, how do you feel about all this stuff?
00:05:19.720 Well, today's a monumentous day.
00:05:21.900 I mean, it's been two years since October 7th, and we've seen the world go into chaos.
00:05:25.900 The world went into chaos after COVID, and then this just was like the icing on the cake
00:05:30.280 where it's like just gave everybody permission to absolutely lose their mind.
00:05:34.600 If you're pro-America, if you're anti-America, gave you permission to burn the American flag.
00:05:39.180 If you hated Trump, wow, this is a great excuse for you to get out there.
00:05:42.060 If you wanted to burn the flag, go for it.
00:05:44.140 If you want to elect someone like Zoran Mondani, boom, excuse.
00:05:48.040 This is Trump resetting the world.
00:05:50.100 Adam made a great point.
00:05:51.060 In L.A., you talk about Karen Bass, whoever.
00:05:53.600 The kids these days, they say, don't talk about it, be about it.
00:05:58.200 And Trump just bees about it.
00:06:00.640 He doesn't care what you think of him.
00:06:02.840 You said the number one thing a politician has to be these days is what?
00:06:06.020 Shameless.
00:06:06.600 He doesn't care what you say.
00:06:07.960 He's not running for re-election.
00:06:09.560 He's a dealmaker.
00:06:10.960 Whether it's a real estate deal, whether it's a tariff deal,
00:06:13.220 whether it's a hostage deal, whether it's a peace deal, Trump is about business.
00:06:18.000 And here you see the world just galvanized around Trump saying they thought that he would start World War III.
00:06:26.120 He's doing peace deals.
00:06:27.300 He thought that he would give chaos to the world.
00:06:29.720 There's order.
00:06:30.720 Everything they said about Trump turned out to be false.
00:06:33.300 And everything is just culminating with this deal right now.
00:06:35.500 And we'll see where this goes from here.
00:06:37.480 But today's an amazing day for everyone involved.
00:06:39.860 Rob, by the way, we don't know if they thought it or they just said it.
00:06:44.220 You know, all the Hitlerian stuff or World War III or the economy is going to collapse, the stock market, whatever.
00:06:50.860 They say a lot of stuff they don't mean.
00:06:53.500 So when you go like they thought he was going to start World War III, did they think it or are they just talking?
00:06:59.480 Well, I don't know if they think it, but they called him Hitler a million times, and now he's the best friend of Israel's ever had, according to Bibi Netanyahu.
00:07:05.760 Here's what I think when it comes to all the Hitler talk.
00:07:08.840 The old guard, you know, Pelosi, Schumer, these people, I mean, Hillary Clinton, we're talking average age 80 at this point.
00:07:17.260 They've been there.
00:07:18.060 They've done that.
00:07:18.860 They've seen him go Biden.
00:07:20.660 They've seen everyone come and everyone go.
00:07:22.680 They know he's not Hitlerian.
00:07:24.900 The 19-year-old kid who's been playing video games and vaping his whole life and is now in a bunch of pharmaceuticals, that kid believes them when they say Hitler.
00:07:37.280 They don't believe Hitler.
00:07:38.420 They're taking pictures with Hitler and going to his wedding and stuff like that.
00:07:42.360 But that kid believes and that kid gets a gun.
00:07:47.380 Well, it's an interesting thing.
00:07:50.080 So they go, they say it, they don't believe it, but young and impressionable does, and that's when the bullets start flying, and that's the danger of it to me.
00:08:01.180 Is there anything there that can hold people accountable, or that's just a risk of freedom of speech?
00:08:08.020 Is there anything that can be done?
00:08:10.460 Because, you know, somebody may say, well, they can say that, and somebody can react to it.
00:08:16.240 Let's try to lower the temperatures, but you're flirting with freedom of speech, you know, that's one of the great things about America.
00:08:22.280 What would you say to them?
00:08:23.580 I think when they keep saying the same thing, you know, they call everyone racist, for instance.
00:08:28.860 That used to mean something.
00:08:30.380 It doesn't mean anything anymore.
00:08:32.220 Correct.
00:08:32.420 They wore it out, you know.
00:08:34.460 Everyone's racist.
00:08:36.020 Everyone's misogynist.
00:08:37.440 Everyone's xenophobic.
00:08:38.760 Scared of people who look different than them.
00:08:41.440 I'd be running for my life right now from the studio if I was scared of people who look different than me.
00:08:46.740 You go out into society, you live in L.A., you live in Miami, you look around, scared of people who look different than everybody you interact with looks different in the modern United States.
00:08:57.880 So they're going to keep saying it, and it's going to wear off.
00:09:01.300 It's just going to keep wearing thinner to the point where it doesn't mean.
00:09:04.920 They can say Hitlerian all they want.
00:09:07.100 He's going to do all these great deals and have all these peace accords, and they look – their punishment is they're inaccurate, and people think they're fools.
00:09:15.660 That's a good point.
00:09:16.180 And they stop listening to that.
00:09:17.060 You almost become immune to it.
00:09:19.080 Yes.
00:09:19.420 It's like dating a girl that keeps saying the same thing over and over and over until you're like, listen, man, it doesn't hurt anymore.
00:09:24.520 You know, I'm so tired of hearing this.
00:09:26.000 I'm out.
00:09:26.400 I'm leaving.
00:09:26.840 Rob, do you have your phone with you, by the way?
00:09:28.600 Yes.
00:09:29.020 Okay.
00:09:29.220 You see my text message I'm sending, or am I sending it to the wrong number?
00:09:33.200 Tom, so, Rob, if you don't mind playing this clip.
00:09:35.160 So, this is when Bibi says the Trump's greatest friend Israel has had.
00:09:42.600 Rob, if you want to play this clip, go for it.
00:09:45.420 No American president has ever done more for Israel.
00:09:50.840 And as I said in Washington, it ain't even close.
00:09:54.820 It's really not a match.
00:09:56.460 Mr. President, today, we welcome you here to thank you for your pivotal leadership in putting forward a proposal that got the backing of almost the entire world.
00:10:10.880 A proposal, a proposal that brings all our hostages home.
00:10:15.760 You have that picture, Rob, of all the hostages?
00:10:19.740 I think we have it somewhere.
00:10:20.940 So, it's about 20 hostages that came home.
00:10:23.320 Obviously, that's Jerusalem Post.
00:10:24.880 God bless the peacemaker.
00:10:26.880 You know, you're seeing all this stuff all over the place.
00:10:29.880 Vinny, where are you at with this?
00:10:31.420 Where are you at with this?
00:10:32.760 You've been on the podcast, P-B-D podcast, for how long now?
00:10:36.140 Say, two and a half, three years?
00:10:37.680 Yeah.
00:10:38.180 Two and a half, three years.
00:10:38.860 So, we've been in the thick of things.
00:10:40.800 This is the 20 hostages that they had.
00:10:43.140 Notice none of them are women.
00:10:45.020 They're all men.
00:10:46.000 Some say maybe women didn't make it.
00:10:48.820 Well, no.
00:10:49.220 They gave the women and children initially earlier.
00:10:52.620 That's what happened for the most part.
00:10:54.320 Right.
00:10:54.760 So, where are you at with this?
00:10:56.920 How are you processing this?
00:10:58.020 Well, first, going back to what Adam was saying about, you know, downplaying the Hitler and the—
00:11:03.760 Hold on.
00:11:04.240 Good Adam.
00:11:04.940 Yeah, good.
00:11:05.700 And we have to do a—
00:11:06.860 Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:11:07.360 Good Adam.
00:11:07.940 I like that.
00:11:08.440 Respectable.
00:11:08.680 My bad.
00:11:09.340 Good Adam.
00:11:10.020 Respectable Adam.
00:11:10.760 My clette to Adam.
00:11:11.780 Let's just go with that.
00:11:12.360 When you've watered down Hitler, when you've watered down racists, it's so dangerous because
00:11:19.220 then when the real racists and the real second Hitler or somebody that bad comes around,
00:11:24.740 you know what we're going to say?
00:11:25.560 Oh, is that the—
00:11:26.880 Nah, it doesn't even work anymore.
00:11:29.040 But, Pat, going to your question, with going to Donald Trump, I personally, from—I was living
00:11:33.920 in L.A., Adam, during, you know, his first run and—good Adam.
00:11:37.300 First run and everything, I was wearing a red hat, getting—it was a red hat, a Yankee
00:11:42.360 hat, and I was getting attacked.
00:11:43.980 I had to deal with all that nonsense, all the lost family members, lost really, really good
00:11:48.600 friends, got into fights and arguments.
00:11:50.160 From that to where we are today, if you can't say—I'm talking about put George Washington
00:11:55.220 and all of them aside, he is going to go down, love him or hate him, as one of the greatest
00:11:59.560 presidents in the history of our nation.
00:12:02.940 I don't care who's going to come after.
00:12:04.840 As of right now, the stuff that he has done and the crap that he's had to go through that
00:12:09.600 they put him through with Russia and impeachments and everything, it's—like, it is done.
00:12:14.780 What else does he need to do?
00:12:16.620 The fact—by the way, the Nobel Peace people have lost all credibility.
00:12:20.640 I never said that they actually had it before, but this guy has stopped eight wars.
00:12:25.120 He's gotten everybody back.
00:12:26.760 So now Hamas, at this point, Adam, they're just—what?
00:12:29.500 Hamas is just sitting around going, OK, we gave him back.
00:12:32.660 What I would do right now is go after full freaking initiative.
00:12:36.420 I'd go after Hamas and just wipe them all out.
00:12:38.520 I mean, where are they right now?
00:12:39.860 They gave him safe haven.
00:12:41.020 I think what he's done, Pat, is amazing.
00:12:42.640 I saw one of these hostages just get released, and he looked like the person—the IDF soldiers
00:12:47.600 talking to him was a female—he looked up into the sun, and you could see that he hasn't
00:12:52.400 seen that thing in a long time, and he just had a moment, and then she was trying to talk
00:12:56.580 to him.
00:12:57.020 I think it's amazing, and he's going to go down as one of the best.
00:12:59.100 Talking about the Nobel Peace Prize, you know what's the weirdest thing about the Nobel Peace
00:13:01.820 Prize is you have to submit your candidates for Nobel Peace Prize before January 31st,
00:13:09.000 which means it would have been 11 days from him winning, so January 20th.
00:13:13.200 He has to be nominated for a Nobel Peace Prize previous to January 31st, okay?
00:13:18.680 So they nominated, at that time, Maria Corina Machado.
00:13:21.780 Why?
00:13:22.140 Because Venezuela, Maduro, all that other stuff, right?
00:13:24.860 So this is the whole thing with the deadline that you've got to submit before that.
00:13:28.280 So, but you know what makes it funny?
00:13:30.380 This is what makes—everybody's like, oh, that makes sense.
00:13:32.800 Why they did this, watch this.
00:13:33.920 Obama becomes president, and they say he won eight and a half months later.
00:13:39.120 No, he didn't.
00:13:40.080 He won 11 days later because he became president January 20th.
00:13:44.100 And they gave it to him like that.
00:13:44.680 They nominated him as a Nobel Peace Prize within that 11 days, and then he won—that means
00:13:50.640 before he was doing anything, they gave him a Nobel Peace Prize, and this guy here, Putin
00:13:58.420 comes out and says, you know, Trump is too good to get a Nobel Peace Prize, and Trump actually
00:14:03.720 thanked him for it.
00:14:04.480 I don't know if you have that clip or not.
00:14:05.740 I do.
00:14:06.180 There's a clip of Trump thanking Putin for saying the president is too good to be awarded
00:14:13.740 the Nobel Peace Prize.
00:14:15.460 Here's Vladimir, Rob, if you have it.
00:14:17.420 ...worthy or unworthy, but at a close premium, I don't know, but he really does a lot to resolve
00:14:22.820 such complex issues that have lasted for decades, for years, or indeed for a happy crisis.
00:14:28.560 I have already said exactly I know in relation to the crisis in Ukraine, and Screens is committed
00:14:33.820 to this.
00:14:35.820 Some things were successful, some were not.
00:14:36.820 Maybe we will still be able to do a lot based on the agreement of discussions, areas of use.
00:14:41.820 But he's definitely trying, definitely working on these issues.
00:14:45.820 Issues of achieving peace and resolving complex international situations.
00:14:49.820 Here are the most ...
00:14:51.820 Did you have it, Rob?
00:14:53.820 That's Putin, and then Trump just tweeted a thank you.
00:14:57.540 Oh, Trump tweeted a thank you.
00:14:58.860 Yes.
00:14:59.860 That is right here.
00:15:01.860 Trump is so funny.
00:15:02.860 Thank you, Mr. President.
00:15:03.860 President Putin responds to President Trump not winning the Nobel Peace Prize.
00:15:06.860 This award lost credibility.
00:15:07.860 The committee discussed the prize for people who have done nothing for the world.
00:15:10.860 He solves complex problems, crisis that the last for decades.
00:15:14.860 By the way, what's even worse than this, Obama sends a tweet saying, hey, congratulations
00:15:20.860 on the peace deal, all this stuff, never once saying Trump.
00:15:24.860 Nope.
00:15:25.860 And then Maria Corina Machado wins it, thanking Trump.
00:15:28.860 Right.
00:15:29.860 And then he retweets it, still not thanking Trump.
00:15:31.860 Yeah.
00:15:32.860 Like, do you understand?
00:15:33.860 Maria Corina Machado said this wouldn't have happened without Trump.
00:15:35.860 So, Tom, where are you at with all this stuff going on with Israel?
00:15:37.860 He's not Beetlejuice is what you're saying.
00:15:38.860 If you say his name, he's not just going to magically appear in your house.
00:15:41.860 I'll tell you where I am.
00:15:42.860 The first thing is, I've always found it ironic that the Nobel Peace Prize was named for Alfred
00:15:47.860 Nobel, who invented dynamite.
00:15:50.860 If you don't know that, he's the inventor of dynamite.
00:15:52.860 Nice.
00:15:53.860 So, peace prize.
00:15:54.860 Maybe dynamite is what ends wars.
00:15:56.860 Pull you to pieces, but go ahead.
00:15:57.860 That's right.
00:15:58.860 Oh, it's the Nobel Peace Prize from the inventor of dynamite.
00:16:02.860 It's not peace.
00:16:03.860 No, this is the art of the deal.
00:16:05.860 And I think people need to appreciate the deal maker that's in the White House and getting
00:16:10.860 things done.
00:16:11.860 As Adam Carolla said at the beginning, he's not a discussion guy.
00:16:14.860 He's not a let's sit down, talk about it, and have tea.
00:16:16.860 He's a guy.
00:16:17.860 Let's go get it done.
00:16:18.860 You get on the phone of the subcontractor.
00:16:20.860 I want the foundation done.
00:16:21.860 I want the foundation cured so we can start putting up steel and build this thing.
00:16:25.860 And he sent Rubio and he sent Whitcoff.
00:16:29.860 And now we find out that also Jared Kirshner is in there part of the time, part of it.
00:16:34.860 But check this out.
00:16:35.860 When the deal first came down, it started with Trump making a better relationship with
00:16:41.860 Turkey.
00:16:42.860 This is the guy I'm going to need.
00:16:44.860 He's already kind of at odds with Israel.
00:16:46.860 I got to get some work done here.
00:16:48.860 And here's how the thing came together over literally apparently seven days after four
00:16:53.860 weeks.
00:16:54.860 Four weeks working on it, Pat.
00:16:55.860 Seven days.
00:16:56.860 It says the Hamas leader, Khalil al-Hayah, he saw it and he said, no, I'm a no on this.
00:17:03.860 It was like 16 points, not quite 20 points.
00:17:05.860 I'm a no.
00:17:06.860 Then two days later, he came back to the Arab mediators, including the Egyptian guy.
00:17:10.860 And he said, yes.
00:17:11.860 Now, what changed?
00:17:12.860 What changed?
00:17:13.860 The pressure on him changed.
00:17:15.860 Egypt and Qatar told Haya, this deal is your last chance.
00:17:18.860 They're going to unleash Israel.
00:17:20.860 They're going to pull all these people out of the zones and they are going to crush the
00:17:24.860 rest of it and get down to the tunnels.
00:17:26.860 This thing is going to end even worse if there is a possible worse.
00:17:29.860 And he said, well, think about it.
00:17:31.860 A day later, Turkey warned him, say, listen, if you don't approve the plan, I'm going to
00:17:36.860 strip you Hamas of political and diplomatic cover.
00:17:39.860 I'm going to leave you hanging and you need money and you're coming to me for money and
00:17:43.860 you're coming to me for arms.
00:17:44.860 I'm going to leave you hanging was a message from Turkey.
00:17:47.860 Then Egypt said, listen, if you don't get with this, we are going to stop pressing and
00:17:53.860 stop lobbying to have you have a say in Gaza's postwar governance.
00:17:59.860 You will have no say.
00:18:01.860 You're out.
00:18:02.860 So the pressure came from the Arab community from Qatar, Egypt and Turkey in that way.
00:18:10.860 And then they did one thing.
00:18:13.860 They reached out to Khaled al-Kadami, if I'm pronouncing it right.
00:18:17.860 You're doing great.
00:18:18.860 Who is in Iran and he's Hamas representative in Tehran.
00:18:21.860 So he's like the ambassador for Hamas in Tehran.
00:18:26.860 Yeah, it sounds weird, but that's what he does.
00:18:28.860 And they said, listen, you need to get behind this.
00:18:32.860 But all the Palestinian civilians won't be forced out.
00:18:35.860 We they will be a way for humanitarian resettlement and reconstruction.
00:18:40.860 And then Tehran said, OK, if that's in there, then we're going to whisper to Hamas that we want you to do it.
00:18:49.860 And that's how it came together.
00:18:51.860 Look at all the deal making that was in there.
00:18:53.860 And Trump issued apparently private warning to them that said, look, we know they're out of money.
00:18:59.860 We know they're out of military.
00:19:01.860 I want to know who wants to step forward and fund them and give them the next round of arms.
00:19:05.860 Whoever that is, I'm going to find out.
00:19:07.860 Yeah.
00:19:08.860 And isn't that an interesting final thing to say?
00:19:10.860 Very much so.
00:19:11.860 And by the way, did you hear what he said this morning when he's like, look, you know who you are.
00:19:15.860 Those of you guys that were a part of this Abraham Accords.
00:19:19.860 Good for you guys.
00:19:20.860 And those of you that you're not, it's not too late to want to choose to come and do something with them.
00:19:25.860 And Iran, you still have a shot at doing a deal with us.
00:19:28.860 This is not a being weak in our negotiation part.
00:19:31.860 Don't take we have the strength.
00:19:32.860 But it's still not too late for you to come and make a better deal and make sure Iran is going to be in a better place than it was before.
00:19:38.860 But this morning, it was very interesting listening to him give the speech that he gave.
00:19:42.860 Obviously, it's a big deal on what happened here.
00:19:45.860 I don't think this guy's going to slow down.
00:19:46.860 He's going to keep going.
00:19:47.860 By the way, imagine being married to this guy.
00:19:49.860 Where are you today?
00:19:50.860 You're the average person.
00:19:51.860 Where are you?
00:19:52.860 I'm at Publix.
00:19:53.860 Where are you, babe?
00:19:54.860 I'm at the gym.
00:19:56.860 Babe, where are you?
00:19:57.860 Israel.
00:19:58.860 Babe, where are you today?
00:19:59.860 Are we going to have dinner?
00:20:00.860 No, I'm in Alaska.
00:20:01.860 Do you want to go to dinner in Alaska?
00:20:02.860 Have some crab legs or maybe some bass, Alaskan bass?
00:20:06.860 Yeah, I guess we're going to do that.
00:20:07.860 The guy's like a running machine going everywhere and anywhere to get the job done.
00:20:12.860 And one last point.
00:20:13.860 What?
00:20:14.860 Who is the guy who's chairman of the commission for Gaza?
00:20:19.860 That's him.
00:20:20.860 Donald J. Trump.
00:20:21.860 So he puts himself in there and kind of daring everybody.
00:20:24.860 And now, by the way, not only have I got skin in the game, I'm right here.
00:20:27.860 Let me ask you this.
00:20:28.860 Let me ask you this.
00:20:29.860 Adam, I'm going to give you a list of names.
00:20:31.860 Tell me the presidents that we've had that could have done those things in this season.
00:20:37.860 Because remember, this guy has been inside the tornado for so long.
00:20:42.860 First term.
00:20:43.860 Second term that he was out.
00:20:45.860 Biden's in.
00:20:46.860 And now the second term.
00:20:47.860 Who could have done this?
00:20:48.860 Biden?
00:20:49.860 Obama?
00:20:50.860 Clinton?
00:20:51.860 Bush?
00:20:52.860 Senior?
00:20:53.860 You know, Reagan?
00:20:54.860 Who could have gone at this guy's pace doing what he's doing right now?
00:20:58.860 No.
00:20:59.860 Well, so those guys are like half the people we have in power, like ceremonial.
00:21:05.860 Like, like Karen Bass is the ceremonial mayor of Los Angeles, but she's not into doing things.
00:21:12.860 You know, they were ceremonial.
00:21:15.860 They're like the hood ornament in Trump's the engine.
00:21:18.860 They were just along for the ride.
00:21:21.860 And out front, everyone saw him and went, Oh, look, you know, it's a Rolls Royce, you know, and got game a bunch of credit, but they weren't driving the car.
00:21:31.860 They weren't powering the car.
00:21:33.860 So I don't their plan is to sort of oversee what's going on and not start a war, but not get anything done.
00:21:43.860 And and to sort of talk about it for as long as they can talk about it before they just run out the clock.
00:21:50.860 They're just doing four corner basketball from back in the day.
00:21:54.860 They're just literally Joe Biden was trying to run out the clock.
00:21:57.860 He wasn't trying to do anything.
00:21:59.860 And his big thing was like, I don't want to get caught screwing something up.
00:22:04.860 So I'll do nothing.
00:22:05.860 And then I won't get blamed.
00:22:07.860 And I'll try.
00:22:08.860 I'll try to pull the troops out of Afghanistan.
00:22:10.860 And then, boom, you know, we'll come down on him.
00:22:13.860 So I think these guys just sort of status quo hang out.
00:22:18.860 They're sort of they're like night watchmen.
00:22:21.860 You know, they don't want to get involved.
00:22:22.860 They don't want to stop crime.
00:22:23.860 They don't want to tackle anyone on the ground.
00:22:25.860 Just keep your head down and walk around the perimeter of the warehouse.
00:22:30.860 Every time we do the Vol Conference, if you've attended, you know this.
00:22:33.860 I stand up and I speak for probably 45 hours is what I do at the Vol Conference.
00:22:39.860 And I love it.
00:22:40.860 I love being around the guys.
00:22:41.860 I love it.
00:22:42.860 But I wear the Ferragamo shoes when I do this or I wear some kind of dress shoes.
00:22:47.860 Eventually, for the last 25 years, I've always been on stage walking.
00:22:50.860 I'm like, you know what?
00:22:51.860 I'm sick and tired of it.
00:22:52.860 I want a shoe that I'm comfortable wearing.
00:22:55.860 And here's what I love.
00:22:56.860 I don't like shoes that are so heavy.
00:22:58.860 That's a dumbbell.
00:22:59.860 You can use it as a weapon.
00:23:00.860 I don't want that.
00:23:01.860 Like the Zenia, you carry it.
00:23:02.860 I have so many of them, but they're so heavy.
00:23:04.860 Like you can literally curl the shoes and you'll get a pump within 30 reps.
00:23:08.860 30 reps.
00:23:09.860 And I wanted the combination of the Hoka, the On Cloud, the Super Foam, because there's
00:23:14.860 a big thing going on right now with the Super Foam where the bottom of the shoe, you wear
00:23:18.860 it.
00:23:19.860 You know which ones I'm talking about, the On Cloud or the Hokas, right?
00:23:21.860 It's incredible.
00:23:22.860 And I said, what if we take luxury and then combine it with the Super Comfort?
00:23:27.860 What would that look like?
00:23:28.860 And let's build it in Italy.
00:23:30.860 So what do we do?
00:23:31.860 We went to Italy.
00:23:32.860 We designed the shoe in Florida.
00:23:34.860 We made the shoe in Italy in five of the factories.
00:23:37.860 We went back in Fort God knows how many times.
00:23:39.860 And by the way, the shoes we're about to launch and introduce to you right now where you're
00:23:42.860 going to see the video for the first time.
00:23:44.860 I've been wearing those shoes for the last 22 days straight.
00:23:48.860 I'm wearing them right now.
00:23:49.860 I literally wear it with suits.
00:23:50.860 I wore it yesterday when we went to lunch.
00:23:52.860 I wear it every single day.
00:23:54.860 It's the most comfortable shoes I have yet.
00:23:56.860 It's authentic Italian leather.
00:23:58.860 Rob, if you don't mind playing the video, go for it.
00:24:01.860 Here's the video of the latest shoe, the FLBs.
00:24:04.860 When we set out to create a shoe that blends comfort, function, and luxury.
00:24:09.860 We had the choice to make it fast.
00:24:11.860 We had the choice to make it cheap.
00:24:13.860 We chose neither.
00:24:15.860 Instead, we chose Toscaniro.
00:24:17.860 We chose true Italian craftsmanship.
00:24:20.860 Each pair touched by 50 skilled hands.
00:24:23.860 We chose patience, spending two years perfecting every detail.
00:24:27.860 And we chose the finest quality at every step.
00:24:30.860 Introducing the Future Looks Bright collection.
00:24:34.860 Not rushed, not disposable, not ordinary.
00:24:38.860 Rather intentional, luxurious, timeless.
00:24:47.860 There you go.
00:24:48.860 Designed in Florida.
00:24:49.860 100% made in Italy.
00:24:51.860 50 hands touch each shoe that was made.
00:24:54.860 And here's what's unique about it.
00:24:55.860 I want to kind of show this to everybody that knows this.
00:24:57.860 And I've worn pretty much every one of these shoes.
00:24:59.860 So if you compare this, the Italian leather, of course, it's made in Italy.
00:25:04.860 It's not assembled, made in China, assembled in Italy.
00:25:07.860 100% made in Italy, assembled in Italy.
00:25:09.860 It's FLBs, Berlutis, which are 1840.
00:25:12.860 Fergamos are 895.
00:25:14.860 Zennias are 1190.
00:25:15.860 And Gucci's are 950.
00:25:16.860 Leather premium lining.
00:25:18.860 All of them except for Gucci.
00:25:20.860 Laceless feature.
00:25:21.860 It's the FLBs, the Berlutis.
00:25:23.860 You have laces.
00:25:24.860 Fergamos, laceless.
00:25:25.860 And then you have also the Zennias.
00:25:27.860 And then the Gucci's have the laces.
00:25:28.860 I don't want to wake up in the morning, put laces on.
00:25:30.860 I want to get out the house.
00:25:31.860 Took me three seconds to put my shoes on today.
00:25:33.860 Craftsman, five different Italian factories all made this shoe.
00:25:37.860 Berlutis are the same as us, as well as FLB.
00:25:39.860 But the only shoe, these trainers, the only one in the world today,
00:25:43.860 according to the factories that told me this in Italy,
00:25:46.860 that has the super foam, the only one that has the same super foam used
00:25:50.860 in the on-clouds and the hokas, it's the FLBs, and they're officially out,
00:25:55.860 and you can place the order.
00:25:57.860 Here's a challenge.
00:25:58.860 We only have 1,000 of these pairs.
00:26:00.860 And when you say 1,000 of these pairs, they start from size, I believe, is it 8?
00:26:05.860 It goes 8, 9, 10, 10 1⁄2, 11, 11 1⁄2, 12, 13.
00:26:10.860 Those are the sizes that we have.
00:26:11.860 And the shoes that you can get today, the colors, you have access to, Rob,
00:26:15.860 if you can go back there, you can have access to those browns,
00:26:18.860 which is absolutely beautiful.
00:26:20.860 And by the way, the brown on the bottom, the stitching on the side is a left stitching.
00:26:24.860 If you can change the picture on the bottom, it says the future looks bright.
00:26:28.860 Look at the white lines on the side.
00:26:31.860 It's beautiful.
00:26:32.860 The only ones we have right now that you can get sent out today
00:26:35.860 are the black and the browns.
00:26:37.860 If you do want the white to preorder, I would highly recommend you do so.
00:26:41.860 They're going to come out the second week of December.
00:26:43.860 So the white and the navy blue comes out the second week of December.
00:26:46.860 The browns and the blacks are available.
00:26:49.860 If you believe the future looks bright as much as we do, go place the order.
00:26:53.860 There's nothing like sitting in the boardroom with your trainers
00:26:56.860 and you put your feet over your knee and people look at the bottom of your shoe
00:26:59.860 and it says future looks bright.
00:27:00.860 That's how you get deals done.
00:27:01.860 All right.
00:27:02.860 So they're out.
00:27:03.860 I'm excited to announce it.
00:27:04.860 And I'm very happy for people to go sport it.
00:27:06.860 When you get them, take pictures, send it our way.
00:27:08.860 We're going to show all these shoes, all the pictures that are being taken.
00:27:11.860 I already got a bunch of them sent to me on Instagram.
00:27:12.860 Go to vtmerch.com, place your order.
00:27:15.860 It's all over the website.
00:27:16.860 Maybe buy it for your husband.
00:27:17.860 Buy it for your brother.
00:27:18.860 Buy it for your coworkers.
