• 1:37
  Speaker 2: Um, what time I want to know election night, what time did you go to bed?
• 1:42
  Speaker 3: uh, I stayed up to watch him give his speech.
• 1:45
  Speaker 3: So I think you know, whatever it was after the speech was over with I, whatever time that was, I don't know, what time it was.
• 1:52
  Speaker 3: But I watched the speech, I watched him, you know, I watched him drag everybody to the microphone, which I thought was pretty cool.
• 1:58
  Speaker 3: I've never seen that before.
• 2:00
  Speaker 3: But he, you know, it was very, very Trump style.
• 2:02
  Speaker 3: It was very off the cuff.
• 2:03
  Speaker 3: That was how late I stayed up.
• 2:05
  Speaker 3: I stayed up for the speech and then I went to bed.
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I think I was up till, like, I guess, watching everything till probably about 2 AM.
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: I didn't watch the speech.
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: I just, I like, finally pulled the plug.
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: I said I can't do anywhere, I'll get the highlights, you know, tomorrow or later today.
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: Meaning, and, uh, I, I went to bed.
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: I don't know how much I actually slept, I was so I had, you know, and, it's funny, I wasn't alone in this I, I saw a lot of people saying similar things that I had, like this, it's almost like PTSD and I hate to compare anything to that, but you know, so, bear with me as I say something like that.
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: Um, but I had this fear that when I woke up in the morning, they would have, you know, done the switch, done the flip, done the drop Right, and the numbers will have changed.
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: So I was like going back and forth between elation and anxiety, and that was apparently a very common feeling.
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: People were, like you know, literally watching their phones and I don't know about you, I got most of my stuff off of X, that's where I kept, you know, and I, I would like, my husband and I, you know, we're like refresh, you know, refresh, did you refresh?
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: Okay, refresh, let's see anything, anything, anything, little crazy, little crazy.
• 3:14
  Speaker 3: But yeah, I did a little bit of the oppo thing.
• 3:17
  Speaker 3: I watched a little bit of CNN.
• 3:18
  Speaker 3: Um, I watched, uh, you know, a lot of the melting down, a lot of the groveling, which we will talk about the reactions here in a little bit.
• 3:26
  Speaker 3: But I was doing a lot of channel flipping, a lot of social media flipping, had, for once, all my alerts turned on.
• 3:33
  Speaker 3: Something would happen and it would be like AP would hit it and Fox would hit it and CNN would hit it, and then you wouldn't hear anything and then 20 minutes later MSNBC or somebody would hit, like I had them all turned on.
• 3:45
  Speaker 3: It was funny to watch.
• 3:46
  Speaker 3: But but yeah, I mean to see all of the things.
• 3:51
  Speaker 3: You know, not just the Senate we're still waiting on the house, right, as much as everybody assumes that it's already been one and it probably has but but we still don't have an official yet, you know but between the Senate and the house and you know, obviously, the electoral college watching all of the, all of the States, all the swing States, all the battleground States.
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: What is it?
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: Seven swing States, right Seven, I mean.
• 4:16
  Speaker 3: Arizona didn't didn't come through until a couple of days later, but it was done.
• 4:20
  Speaker 3: It didn't matter at that point but that, and then the popular vote.
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, how about that?
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: Wow, you know.
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: So I came across this.
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna see if I can pull it up here.
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: So I came across this tweet.
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: I don't really actually know if we're still calling them tweets on X, but that's what I'm calling it, Right?
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: So this person's name is that, Kazen, and he, you know, I don't know if he got it from somewhere else, but this is where I found it, so I want to credit him for it.
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: At that's Kazen K-A-I-Z-E-N.
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: He put together this list.
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: That is really very wow, OK.
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: So he says it's crazy to look back and realize that one Trump was banned from Twitter from Twitter for two years.
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: He was banned from YouTube for two years.
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: Banned from Instagram and Facebook Same thing two years.
• 5:07
  Speaker 2: The government pressured Facebook to censor dissenting voices as misinformation.
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: They pressure Twitter to shadow, ban conservative accounts.
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: They pressure Twitter to censor the Hunter Biden laptop story.
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: He's been hit with hundreds of lawsuits incurring one to two million dollars in expenses.
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: Over the last eight years, Legacy media nearly near uniformly posted negative headlines about him and Google search results reflected uh yeah, reflected, and may have even amplified media bias the fact that he was able to win against again, I'm sorry, the fact that he was able to win again despite all of this is a stunning triumph of the human spirit and I agree wholeheartedly with that.
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: You know the obstacles that he had to get through to just be heard, to just be seen, with that level of opposition against him.
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: Um it, it really is.
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: I mean, this was a, this was a collection of more than half of America saying we're not going to be silenced.
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: He's not going to be silenced, and it's incredible when you realize that the scope of the opposition that they laid against him.
• 6:14
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, and go even a step further.
• 6:16
  Speaker 3: You know two assassination attempts.
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: Yeah Right, I mean there's that you know.
• 6:21
  Speaker 3: So now you've got intimidation, you've got an attempt to keep him from appearing in public.
• 6:25
  Speaker 3: You've got all of those things.
• 6:27
  Speaker 3: You've got intimidation of his family, beyond the lawsuits.
• 6:30
  Speaker 3: I mean you've got the law fair, which is a level of harassment you know.
• 6:34
  Speaker 3: I mean the raid on Mar-a-Lago.
• 6:36
  Speaker 3: I mean that kind of kicked all of this off.
• 6:38
  Speaker 3: If you just go back, that's where it all kind of started and it's all bred on fear, but it all backfired Like that.
• 6:45
  Speaker 3: I think is the point of what that Twitter poster said, that X poster said, is you know, it's that it all backfired, every bit of it.
• 6:55
  Speaker 3: It is a triumph.
• 6:56
  Speaker 3: It's an amazing underdog story Although I don't know if underdog is the right term, but fighting the grain.
• 7:02
  Speaker 3: You know he's fighting against the tide, whatever you want to call it.
• 7:05
  Speaker 3: But yeah, you know, the fact that he overcame all of that is the.
• 7:08
  Speaker 3: It's a comeback story, if nothing else.
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: Um, but you know, all of that crap backfired all of it every single thing that they did, the gaslighting, the gaslighting of epic proportions, and I just thank God every minute of every day that there were enough people to see through it.
• 7:28
  Speaker 2: And a little side note you mentioned the Mar-a-Lago raid and it made me think of Melania Trump declining the invitation yes.
• 7:37
  Speaker 2: And citing that specifically.
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: So what's your thoughts on that?
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: I love it, but I can see where some people will probably say, well, she should have gone.
• 7:44
  Speaker 3: I personally applaud her for you know I thought it was out of character for her, because she is always so, yes, together she's very graceful, gracious, very elegant, um, but, but I but I think that's a statement too the fact she is at her breaking point with these people, I think, says more than anything like of the one person with maybe the exception of his daughter the one person who really, in his life, keeps her, you know, cool, keeps her calm, stays level and fair, like she is that person, and for her to reach this breaking point is that's very significant.
• 8:23
  Speaker 3: Um, so good, good honor.
• 8:25
  Speaker 3: I mean, I don't, um, I am shocked, though I I I really thought that she would be the okay, let's sit down and talk China patterns or whatever with it, and she said I'm done with you.
• 8:36
  Speaker 2: So yeah, I think we're getting a new, new version of Milani.
• 8:40
  Speaker 2: I think she will be no less than classy and elegant, as she's always been.
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: She will, that will continue, but I think she's going to take a little bit more of a?
• 8:48
  Speaker 2: Um, you know the stage.
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: She's going to take the stage a little bit more the releasing of her book, um, you know initiatives and things that she's passionate about.
• 8:56
  Speaker 2: I think she must've come into this saying listen, if we're doing this again, then you know my terms and how I, how I want to handle things, and I think that's what she's going to do.
• 9:05
  Speaker 3: Well, and I think it was, was it Monday for Veterans Day?
• 9:09
  Speaker 3: There's I don't know if you've seen the film clip there's some serious iciness between the vice president, presidential candidate Harris and the first lady, glacial yeah, so.
• 9:21
  Speaker 3: So that says a lot too.
• 9:22
  Speaker 3: I mean, it's all environmental, but you know, we have long suspected I'm not even suspected you, and I have long said that Jill Biden is, you know, she's a pariah, she's, she's, she is the root of many of the problems that are going on right now.
• 9:37
  Speaker 3: Oh yeah, and to get that between her and Harris, and then, obviously, with the soon to be first lady for a second term However, that's a second term, yes for her to react the way she did, I think, says a lot too.
• 9:48
  Speaker 3: So I think that's quite a lot.
• 9:48
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I think dr jill would be.
• 9:50
  Speaker 3: You know she's one of those like the.
• 9:52
  Speaker 3: The dog is probably going to bite at her and you trust oh yeah, absolutely, yeah, she is, she is absolutely so.
• 9:58
  Speaker 2: She's so done mentally with all of this.
• 10:00
  Speaker 2: You know, a big bleepity, bleep to all of you.
• 10:02
  Speaker 2: Um, um, I, I was watching, you know, every.
• 10:05
  Speaker 2: It got played a lot.
• 10:06
  Speaker 2: I'm sure you saw it too, the clip of her and Biden walking on the beach like come on, man, like I couldn't even make a video about it, I couldn't even.
• 10:14
  Speaker 2: I couldn't even make a video to make fun of it.
• 10:16
  Speaker 2: But you know, because it was so awful, um, horrific to watch, really, um, and again, that anger.
• 10:27
  Speaker 2: I mean again I say this so many times no, don't like the man, never have, never will, um, but like the people in his life, like you, let this guy do this.
• 10:34
  Speaker 2: And that was the thing that actually I paid the most attention to.
• 10:37
  Speaker 2: In that video the man is like stumbling, near, falling.
• 10:41
  Speaker 2: It's, you know, it's a traffic accident, traffic accident that you're watching.
• 10:45
  Speaker 2: Basically, she didn't even glance at him, she just kept walking.
• 10:50
  Speaker 2: There's a point where she was kind of like behind him and he was right here.
• 10:54
  Speaker 2: It's not that she couldn't see him.
• 10:55
  Speaker 2: There's no way she couldn't have known that he was falling all over the place.
• 10:59
  Speaker 2: You don't put your arm out.
• 11:02
  Speaker 2: That to me, was really almost one of the most disgusting things I've ever seen of a spouse with their their partner Like yeah, she's, she's been horrible.
• 11:12
  Speaker 3: Yeah, she's been horrible for a long time.
• 11:13
  Speaker 3: We know that but you know, I think that is indicative, you know.
• 11:17
  Speaker 3: Moving on to, you know, our, our, our, next topic.
• 11:20
  Speaker 3: I mean that that the reactions from the left are also great indicators, and so there's a lot of finger pointing.
• 11:27
  Speaker 3: Right there's a lot of blame to be had.
• 11:30
  Speaker 3: Both President Biden got blamed for a poor administration.
• 11:34
  Speaker 3: He got blamed for staying in the race too long.
• 11:37
  Speaker 3: He got blamed for picking Kamala Harris as his vice president in the first place, you know, and then you know.
• 11:43
  Speaker 3: And then the first lady got blamed.
• 11:44
  Speaker 3: She got blamed for forcing him to stay in too long.
• 11:48
  Speaker 3: She got blamed for, and then obviously Harris.
• 11:52
  Speaker 3: And so there's lots of finger pointing going on, but those two I was surprised at the amount of blame that the president and the first lady took in the aftermath of this.
• 12:02
  Speaker 3: I know they were looking to blame somebody, but to go after him and and then, of course, you see him walk on the beach like that and you're like well, he clearly is incapable.
• 12:12
  Speaker 2: Right, like he's not even there.
• 12:13
  Speaker 2: Yeah, although you know the running joke, of course, has been all of a sudden he's come out for these a handful of pressers and he's spry as can be.
• 12:20
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 12:29
  Speaker 3: Very y as can be.
• 12:29
  Speaker 3: Yeah, very yippy, skippy and coherent, like what is that well, you know, it's some of it's the meds and some of it.
• 12:31
  Speaker 3: As you know, like all of us that have been around aging people like they have great days and they have not great days.
• 12:35
  Speaker 3: Right, and the fact the matter is is, as the president, united states, you can't have a not great day, like it doesn't work, yeah, um.
• 12:41
  Speaker 3: So you know the reactions and I know you're going to talk about some of the crazy stuff that's going on, but you know, did you watch the View the next day?
• 12:50
  Speaker 3: I watched about 15 minutes.
• 12:51
  Speaker 2: I, you know, I'm in this mode of self-preservation that I cannot.
• 12:58
  Speaker 2: I catch highlights or lowlights in this case of things, and I wait, I make everybody else do all the heavy lifting for me.
• 13:05
  Speaker 2: And then I watched their highlight reels and and yeah, I mean everything what you would do.
• 13:08
  Speaker 2: Do they all come out in black or something?
• 13:10
  Speaker 2: Are they all in black?
• 13:11
  Speaker 3: There's what?
• 13:11
  Speaker 3: There's six, I think, at the desk and I think four of them.
• 13:14
  Speaker 3: Four of them were in black.
• 13:15
  Speaker 3: Yes, I noticed that.
• 13:16
  Speaker 3: I was like what is this?
• 13:17
  Speaker 3: It was like the first four out the door funeral Right which you know.
• 13:25
  Speaker 2: For them it kind of was For them it is.
• 13:26
  Speaker 2: They truly believe, they believe.
• 13:26
  Speaker 2: You know a lot of them at least, maybe not all of them, but those people certainly believe what they're saying.
• 13:29
  Speaker 3: Yeah, there's.
• 13:30
  Speaker 3: There was two and I don't know their names other than Whoopi and Joy, you know, because they've been on there forever.
• 13:36
  Speaker 3: But two of the women on there were pretty introspective and I saw that from some of the hosts on CNN the following day and there's some interviews with some Democrats out there, both in the pundit world but also in the political world, that were very like okay, well, we got to figure this out, like we need to figure out what happened.
• 13:55
  Speaker 3: But for the most part there was a lot of meltdown going on.
• 14:00
  Speaker 2: A lot of meltdowns, a lot of defiance.
• 14:02
  Speaker 2: You know a lot of still.
• 14:04
  Speaker 2: You know name calling of the right, you know of people on the right for voting them.
• 14:09
  Speaker 2: Still still name calling, still slinging mud, not learning a gosh darn lesson from anything that just happened.
• 14:16
  Speaker 2: And I agree with you, you know I don't, I don't want to make any blanket statements saying you know that all of the left, all of the mainstream media on the left is, you know, still behaving foolishly.
• 14:25
  Speaker 2: There are some, like you said, that are being a little more introspective and trying to figure this out and see where they went wrong.
• 14:31
  Speaker 2: And I mean you know the simple, the fast answer to that is don't call half the country garbage.
• 14:35
  Speaker 2: Here's a thought, you know I mean step one right, you know, I mean step one.
• 14:41
  Speaker 2: Once upon a time presidential candidates or any political candidates your whole purpose is to win people over to your side.
• 14:49
  Speaker 2: And this time around and of course it's been like this for a little while, but this was the most obvious where, instead of trying to reach across the aisle and bring people over and say, hey, listen, we're just, we want the same things that you do Come on over here, bring people over and say, hey, listen, we're just, we want the same things that you do, come on over here.
• 15:08
  Speaker 2: This was a time where both sides said a big bleepity, bleep, you know.
• 15:13
  Speaker 2: Raise that middle finger to the other side and said, nope, this is war, this is a battle, it's us against you and you know, to the death we fight, basically, you know.
• 15:22
  Speaker 2: So that's a little bit crazy to me.
• 15:24
  Speaker 3: I think, though.
• 15:25
  Speaker 3: I think, though, that President Trump did, and the campaign as a whole they tried to reach across a little bit more.
• 15:33
  Speaker 3: They didn't try and reach across, they tried to reach into the middle, and you and I have talked about this.
• 15:36
  Speaker 3: That's what elections used to be about.
• 15:38
  Speaker 3: Right, you never had to play to your base.
• 15:40
  Speaker 3: They were gimme, they were three foot putt Like you were going to get those votes.
• 15:44
  Speaker 3: You didn't have to play to the base, you played to the middle to try and draw the middle.
• 15:48
  Speaker 2: Right, yeah, I agree.
• 15:49
  Speaker 3: Like I agree.
• 15:50
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I think, I think they definitely yeah, both both sides played to the extremes and didn't do a great job at trying.
• 15:57
  Speaker 3: The middle is so small now that they didn't do a great job to play the middle.
• 16:02
  Speaker 3: Except President Trump did on the basis of, truthfully, the economy.
• 16:06
  Speaker 3: Like that, that was where he was reaching across to anybody and everybody who felt poor, like I don't care what, I don't care what party you're from, you can't pay your bills and you're worried about feeding your kids, like this is where you need to be.
• 16:24
  Speaker 2: So he reached out, I think, on an economic basis and not on a you know kind of the staunch policy basis that the parties tend to follow, and he reached out to, reached out to and reached the younger population and there's a, you know, more than a rumor that Barron had a great deal to do with that.
• 16:40
  Speaker 2: That he was yes, there's, yeah, there's talk that behind the scenes, very quietly, he was highly, highly instrumental to pointing his father to the demographic and to the actual literal people you know streamers and stuff like that pointing them to, pointing him to the people he should be engaging with and talking to.
• 17:02
  Speaker 2: So I find that incredibly fascinating be engaging with and talking to.
• 17:07
  Speaker 2: So I find that incredibly fascinating and I truly look forward to see what Barron Trump is going to do.
• 17:09
  Speaker 2: He's 18 now and he's emerging a little bit.
• 17:11
  Speaker 2: He's still pretty quiet, but he's emerging a little bit, and I think mom has a lot to do with that.
• 17:16
  Speaker 2: So it's going to be interesting.
• 17:18
  Speaker 3: And Kai Kai is also a bit of a superstar.
• 17:20
  Speaker 2: I love Kai, I love her.
• 17:22
  Speaker 3: You know, and she, I saw her in social media in the in the waning days of the of the campaign, you know, and even right after the election.
• 17:29
  Speaker 3: You know this is why you should vote for my grandpa.
• 17:34
  Speaker 3: You know this is who my grandpa really is, kind of stuff.
• 17:35
  Speaker 3: So I think you know you're, you probably hadn't even thought of Baron.
• 17:36
  Speaker 3: I knew I'd seen Kai enough, she had been vocal enough that you know, I knew she probably had at least a touch of influence, but I hadn't even thought of Baron, and that's probably it's.
• 17:45
  Speaker 3: It's a very interesting point, you know, maybe, maybe you know, I mean you've got obviously Donald and Eric and you know, or Don Jr and Eric, and then you know the daughters, and now you've got Baron as well, and then you've got Kai and you know I don't like saying this out loud, but you know there has the potential for a Kennedy-esque feel to this.
• 18:07
  Speaker 2: I, I completely agree.
• 18:07
  Speaker 2: I've, I felt that all along too.
• 18:09
  Speaker 2: You know, I, I look at that Trump family and it's, you know, it's what a dynasty.
• 18:12
  Speaker 2: First of all, I mean you have, first of all, to be very superficial, um, visually, what a striking right.
• 18:19
  Speaker 2: I mean they're all Amazons, you know exactly.
• 18:23
  Speaker 2: You know they're just beautiful people, quite literally beautiful looking people.
• 18:27
  Speaker 2: They are incredibly smart and they're just I mean, in my opinion they are the total package really.
• 18:34
  Speaker 2: You know, smart, articulate, well put together.
• 18:37
  Speaker 2: They keep their noses clean, you know, or at least as far as we can tell, as far as we know you know if they're not right.
• 18:50
  Speaker 3: They're no hunter, that's for sure.
• 18:50
  Speaker 3: Yeah, right, I mean that alone.
• 18:51
  Speaker 3: You get points just for that these days, let's hit some of the crazy, because I know you, you, you hit me with this even when we were talking topics wow I mean.
• 18:58
  Speaker 2: So I, I'm sure, and we'll throw some videos in here, disperse them in through these, just so you can see.
• 19:03
  Speaker 2: Actually, you, you know what.
• 19:04
  Speaker 2: Let's do that If I get anything aside from Kamala get the f*** out of my face.
• 19:09
  Speaker 5: I'm going to be honest.
• 19:09
  Speaker 5: I was very blindsided by the results this morning.
• 19:11
  Speaker 5: I've decided that cigarettes don't count today and I honestly might go get a tattoo, but I also have decided that for the next four years, I am going to abstain from schmucks with men.
• 19:23
  Speaker 5: Donald Trump is president and I think all women should stop having sex for the next four years in protest and protection of your bodies.
• 19:30
  Speaker 5: As we know, if that little baby inside you gives you any trouble and you need an emergency healthcare, you're gonna die.
• 19:37
  Speaker 5: I think that is sufficient enough reason to stop having sex.
• 19:40
  Speaker 5: This vote wasn't a vote for Americans.
• 19:42
  Speaker 6: This vote was for men, and unless we want to become the handmaid's tale, then us women need to protest because this is so buttery bull.
• 19:50
  Speaker 6: All I have to say is good luck getting laid, especially in Florida, because me and my girlies are participating in the 4B movement.
• 19:56
  Speaker 6: That's my next plan.
• 19:58
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, so this is mild, these reactions are actually the mild ones, and let's touch on that.
• 20:01
  Speaker 2: 4b movement.
• 20:01
  Speaker 2: So this is mild, like these are.
• 20:02
  Speaker 2: These reactions are actually the mild ones, and let's touch on that for B movement.
• 20:06
  Speaker 2: So this is like a Korean thing that the women there, they were oppressed and they came up with this thing, so it's like they abstain.
• 20:13
  Speaker 2: There's like four things.
• 20:14
  Speaker 2: They all start with B in Korean and, and it's something about abstaining from sex with men, something else.
• 20:23
  Speaker 2: It was like four different things that they're going to do to protest, you know.
• 20:28
  Speaker 3: Yeah, so I've seen that.
• 20:30
  Speaker 3: That which good, I mean excellent.
• 20:35
  Speaker 3: If they don't want to reproduce Fine.
• 20:38
  Speaker 2: Yeah, the irony of that, though, right, the irony.
• 20:41
  Speaker 3: There's that.
• 20:41
  Speaker 3: There's the blue bracelets, which I think is a way for them to publicly identify each other, right and then, and shaving their heads.
• 20:50
  Speaker 2: Shaving their heads, and there's also one as part of like the blue blue bracelets and blue heart tattoos, so they can all recognize each other.
• 20:58
  Speaker 2: I'm like I'm pretty sure you can recognize each other pretty easily, cause you're the ones all acting crazy, like going nuts and crying in the streets and you know.
• 21:06
  Speaker 2: And then there's also one floating around of promoting using untraceable poison to poison your, the men in your life.
• 21:18
  Speaker 2: Like these people are crazy.
• 21:21
  Speaker 2: And then add to that there's been several incidents of school teachers.
• 21:27
  Speaker 3: Yes.
• 21:28
  Speaker 2: Making credible.
• 21:30
  Speaker 2: You know well threats but wild rants about.
• 21:34
  Speaker 2: You know there's one actually in my home state, cheshire elementary school teacher, who thought it would be a great idea to to put one of these rants on snapchat.
• 21:43
  Speaker 2: And I, you know you know which one.
• 21:45
  Speaker 6: Yeah and people of color and poor people and gay people and all the people that I care about aren't going to be safe in america.
• 21:53
  Speaker 6: Neither the are you guys.
• 21:56
  Speaker 6: Just because you won doesn't mean we don't remember who the you voted for.
• 22:01
  Speaker 6: You're not in the clear.
• 22:02
  Speaker 6: Just please, please, don't test your gangster on me, because you will end on a stretcher Gone forever.
• 22:14
  Speaker 6: So serious.
• 22:16
  Speaker 6: Nobody can talk to me unless you want to swing.
• 22:18
  Speaker 6: If you want to fight, text me, call me.
• 22:22
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and I know what her logic was.
• 22:23
  Speaker 2: I don't know if it's still the deal.
• 22:25
  Speaker 2: I don't really use Snapchat, but I have it, but I don't use it.
• 22:27
  Speaker 2: Apparently, they disappear after like 24 hours or something.
• 22:31
  Speaker 2: So you like, you make your post or your video, whatever, and then it's gone.
• 22:33
  Speaker 2: The internet is forever and, of course, somebody you know screen recorded it or download it or whatever you do, and, yes, that spread like wildfire.
• 22:43
  Speaker 2: She is on leave right now, which I'm hoping is just simply a formality in the process of firing, because if this woman gets let back to teach, maybe it's an extreme response, but my genuine response here is if you are a conservative, if you voted for Trump and you are not quiet about it and you're, you've spoken about it, get your kids out of public schools.
• 23:06
  Speaker 2: I mean, these people are bonkers.
• 23:08
  Speaker 2: This is this is how they react, this is their response and I love.
• 23:12
  Speaker 2: I love that people are like that.
• 23:14
  Speaker 2: They on that side of things are like, oh, you do this, if you guys lost, you would be so obnoxious.
• 23:20
  Speaker 2: There's a difference between being obnoxious and gloating and being like yay or boo, whatever the case, and then there's threats of violence.
• 23:28
  Speaker 2: Like I'm not if Trump lost.
• 23:31
  Speaker 2: I love the man.
• 23:31
  Speaker 2: If he lost, I would not be shaving my head for him.
• 23:34
  Speaker 2: I'm just not doing it.
• 23:35
  Speaker 3: Yeah, there's, there's the um, the first girl in that, you know series that you put, put on there talking about cutting people out of her life.
• 23:42
  Speaker 3: There's a lot of people that are talking about doing that cutting out family members which is absurd.
• 23:47
  Speaker 3: But you know, here's the, here's the difference in the reaction, right.
• 23:51
  Speaker 3: And so there was and this one kills me there was talk of trying to two things one, get a president and we talked about this before get president Biden to step down, right.
• 23:59
  Speaker 3: And then they, you know, install vice president Harris and she gets to become the female president.
• 24:04
  Speaker 3: You know, blah, blah, blah.
• 24:04
  Speaker 3: So there's that.
• 24:05
  Speaker 3: There was also the.
• 24:06
  Speaker 3: There's the push to get Justice Sotomayor to retire Right Before President Trump you know his inauguration and to appoint Vice President Harris as a Supreme Court judge.
• 24:17
  Speaker 3: I saw that.
• 24:18
  Speaker 2: I think I just saw that she said nah.
• 24:30
  Speaker 3: Well, here's the thing, right.
• 24:31
  Speaker 3: For the last four years, we've listened to pack the courts and we've listened to end the filibuster.
• 24:33
  Speaker 3: We, the Republicans, now have the White House, the House, the Senate and a six three majority in the Supreme Court.
• 24:36
  Speaker 3: If any Republican right now said let's end the filibuster and let's pack the Supreme Court, there would be an absolute.
• 24:44
  Speaker 3: This is why Chuck Schumer is like Heyuster and let's pack the Supreme Court, there would be an absolute.
• 24:48
  Speaker 3: This is why Chuck Schumer is like hey, everybody, let's play nice for the next couple of years, you know, let's not go nuclear.
• 24:53
  Speaker 3: That's exactly.
• 24:55
  Speaker 3: They were talking nuclear option for the last four years because they were trying to gain power.
• 24:57
  Speaker 3: And if you had any Republican in Congress anywhere right now talking about those two topics, people would lose their mind.
• 25:01
  Speaker 3: Could you imagine adding six more justices, and all appointed by Trump?
• 25:07
  Speaker 3: Yeah, right, right, right.
• 25:08
  Speaker 3: So you'd have a 12, three, a 12, three, and then oh, by the way, get rid of the filibuster.
• 25:13
  Speaker 3: So, like any, anything that anybody proposed got passed, you couldn't stop it.
• 25:17
  Speaker 3: It would pass with a simple majority because everybody would go through and vote party line, it would get to the president and then, if somebody took it to the Supreme Court.
• 25:24
  Speaker 3: Even if two justices went the other way, it would still be 11 to five, like it would be.
• 25:29
  Speaker 3: This would be overrun for the next four years.
• 25:32
  Speaker 3: But you can't say that because the reaction would be oh my God, you guys, what are you doing?
• 25:38
  Speaker 3: This isn't how our country is supposed to be.
• 25:40
  Speaker 3: These aren't the same.
• 25:41
  Speaker 3: You know, we've got safeguards for a reason.
• 25:42
  Speaker 3: Yeah, no, kidding, that's what we've been telling you for for you.
• 25:45
  Speaker 2: Exactly.
• 25:45
  Speaker 2: Yeah, amazing how that suddenly, in an instant, became a bad idea, and that's what disgusts me, and I'm sure you feel exactly the same way.
• 25:52
  Speaker 2: That is what disgusts me and I don't want anyone to forget.
• 25:56
  Speaker 2: Right, we're not going to play nice, no, and I'm sick of hearing that too.
• 26:11
  Speaker 3: Well, now it's time to you know.
• 26:11
  Speaker 2: Mend the fences and, and you know, come together.
• 26:13
  Speaker 2: No, it's not.
• 26:14
  Speaker 2: It's not that time.
• 26:14
  Speaker 2: That's what you want to say.
• 26:15
  Speaker 2: You want to say BS yes, thank you.
• 26:20
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's not that time, because these are dirty, filthy, lying sacks of garbage.
• 26:22
  Speaker 3: There's that word again.
• 26:23
  Speaker 3: So where it belongs, right, but okay.
• 26:24
  Speaker 3: So moving this rolls right into the next topic, which is why did president Trump win, right?
• 26:27
  Speaker 3: I mean, that's that's where we're at, and why did he win?
• 26:30
  Speaker 3: And it's because of crap like this.
• 26:31
  Speaker 3: Yes, this is why we, we, you know.
• 26:34
  Speaker 3: This is why he won the electoral college.
• 26:36
  Speaker 3: This is why he won every swing state.
• 26:37
  Speaker 3: This is why he wanted the popular vote.
• 26:39
  Speaker 3: This is why he won it.
• 26:42
  Speaker 3: Like president Biden beat vice president Harris in every county, even the counties she won.
• 26:48
  Speaker 3: She didn't do better than him.
• 26:50
  Speaker 3: So, literally, ground was gained in every single county across the United States.
• 26:56
  Speaker 3: Yeah, like, and it's because of this crap, it's because of identity politics, it's because of, you know, the attack mindset, it's because of DEI, it's because of CRT, it's because of all of this crap that's being forced on people, and the average American is just sick of it.
• 27:14
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, listen, we're not safe, we're not economically sound, we're not healthy, we're not trusting our government.
• 27:24
  Speaker 2: We are so divided and violent against each other Well, not really us against them but enough, enough, we're done.
• 27:36
  Speaker 2: Nobody is going to vote for Harris.
• 27:38
  Speaker 2: I believe fully that they went in there, walked in saying to their friends whatever oh, yeah, no, totally voting for her.
• 27:49
  Speaker 2: Yeah, absolutely yeah.
• 27:50
  Speaker 2: And they went in there and they voted with logic, you know.
• 27:53
  Speaker 2: I believe that.
• 27:55
  Speaker 2: I believe that there are a ton of people that went in and, you know, told people that they were going to vote for her because that's what everybody wanted to hear, and they voted with their actual conscience and said you know, maybe took a look at their bank account and looked at, you know, their surroundings and realize that you know, all of those things were not safe.
• 28:12
  Speaker 2: We're not better, we're not number one anymore.
• 28:14
  Speaker 2: We're far from it.
• 28:15
  Speaker 2: Now we have to change it, you know.
• 28:19
  Speaker 3: And the.
• 28:19
  Speaker 3: You know there's a lot of mechanics and a lot of this.
• 28:22
  Speaker 3: I think all of this feeds in.
• 28:23
  Speaker 3: I don't think you can point a finger at any one reason why President Trump won.
• 28:31
  Speaker 3: I would actually even argue that President Trump won almost as much as Harris lost it, like she lost that election.
• 28:37
  Speaker 3: I don't think Biden would have won either, but I think that she really, you know, shot herself and lost this election as much as anything you know from the late entry.
• 28:48
  Speaker 3: Ok, fine, right, did that play into it?
• 28:50
  Speaker 3: I think it did.
• 28:51
  Speaker 3: But again, I don't think President Biden was going to win either, not after that debate.
• 28:55
  Speaker 3: Performance Right.
• 28:56
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's the deal on him.
• 28:59
  Speaker 3: So did she get a short, you know runway.
• 29:02
  Speaker 3: Maybe Did she get $1.4 billion.
• 29:04
  Speaker 3: Yeah, Right.
• 29:06
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I was just going to say, yeah, I love how they like to.
• 29:09
  Speaker 2: Now they're trying to like.
• 29:11
  Speaker 2: Well, she was really at a disadvantage.
• 29:13
  Speaker 2: She really just everything was striked against her.
• 29:14
  Speaker 2: I'm sorry.
• 29:15
  Speaker 2: You had what'd you say?
• 29:16
  Speaker 2: $1.4 billion, which, by the way, 20 million in debt.
• 29:20
  Speaker 2: Now, you had all of the celebrity endorsements, you had the mainstream media on your side cheering you along.
• 29:27
  Speaker 2: I mean, you had all of the advantage, all of it, every single bit of advantage, fair and unfair, yeah, and this is what happened.
• 29:35
  Speaker 2: So it is definitely time to self-reflect on their part, yeah.
• 29:38
  Speaker 3: People said I've heard this and this was the most absurd.
• 29:41
  Speaker 3: She ran a perfect campaign.
• 29:43
  Speaker 3: I heard that I think it was Joy Reid actually, which is not surprising, but she ran the perfect campaign, which clearly she did not.
• 29:51
  Speaker 3: Now in the blame game, right?
• 29:53
  Speaker 3: So the why did Trump win?
• 29:55
  Speaker 3: You and I have been talking about this for weeks the demographics they lost are the demographics that really, really hurt them.
• 30:00
  Speaker 3: Their votes flipped.
• 30:02
  Speaker 3: You know, maybe Georgia, maybe, maybe Michigan, maybe, but I don't think so.
• 30:29
  Speaker 3: But put you know and I know, like places like New York, new York state, because of New York city, you know Illinois because of Chicago, you know California because of LA, san Francisco, san Diego, right, a change in the popular vote didn't shift enough to change the electoral college, but it did change the popular vote, which is a huge statement.
• 30:44
  Speaker 3: 2004, right was the last time a Republican won the popular vote.
• 30:47
  Speaker 3: It was Bush's seconders.
• 30:56
  Speaker 2: You know Trump himself.
• 30:57
  Speaker 2: Of course, he has his strong, solid, loyal fan base followers.
• 31:02
  Speaker 2: But, you know, then you bring in someone like JD Vance and you bring in someone like RFK Jr and you bring in Vivek and Tulsi.
• 31:10
  Speaker 2: You start bringing, of course, elon, you start bringing in these really, really smart younger people who can actually connect with the younger generation and speak to them.
• 31:21
  Speaker 2: It's just, it's the dream team.
• 31:23
  Speaker 2: I mean, it truly is the dream team, and, of course, they keep adding more and we'll get to that in just a moment.
• 31:27
  Speaker 2: But, yeah, I think what happened was there were enough people.
• 31:31
  Speaker 2: You know, one of many, many factors, but I think also, one of those factors is that there were enough people who said listen, I don't like Trump, I'm never going to like him, but I like a strong economy.
• 31:44
  Speaker 2: You know, number one and that is always for adults that is always going to end up being if you're a sane person, that is always going to end up being your number one thing.
• 31:56
  Speaker 2: Can I put food on my table, pay my mortgage or buy a house or rent a home?
• 32:01
  Speaker 2: You know, rent a place, buy a car, can I do those things?
• 32:04
  Speaker 2: Nope, well, now we have a problem, and I think that at the core of it is why you know people who were meh on Trump.
• 32:12
  Speaker 3: This was a bit of a crass statement, but I think it speaks to exactly what the difference was and it was.
• 32:19
  Speaker 3: I don't remember who exactly said it, but it was immediately following the election and it was like you know, amazingly enough, women go to the grocery store more often than they get abortions and it was like just a statement of like the economy matters every single day to most people, right, the population that are voting, the single, single voter, single issue voters that are voting because of abortion are much smaller and is really less of a concern if you can't keep your lights on.
• 32:49
  Speaker 3: So you know.
• 32:50
  Speaker 3: Again, it was a little crass in how it was stated, but but the but the intent behind it is a hundred percent true.
• 32:56
  Speaker 3: So you know, that's the.
• 32:59
  Speaker 3: That's the other part of it, too, is that you know the Dems and you hit it with the celebrity.
• 33:03
  Speaker 3: You know, the celebrities that Trump brought in were people that could.
• 33:06
  Speaker 3: You know one.
• 33:07
  Speaker 3: They could add to the conversation, they could add to the, they were added to the team.
• 33:13
  Speaker 3: You know, danica Patrick wasn't somebody who anybody, I think, expected, but she jumped in and she became a big name and a big face.
• 33:20
  Speaker 3: You know, and to be honest with you Beyonce wasn't going to be in the administration, bruce Springsteen is not going to be in the administration, george Clooney is not going to be in the administration, where you know, and I can't think of a single person that Harris had a single celebrity or known face that she had that would have participated, whereas Trump intermingled.
• 33:39
  Speaker 3: Listen, hulk Hogan is who he is.
• 33:41
  Speaker 3: I know most of America knows him, but nobody's listening to him on who to vote for.
• 33:44
  Speaker 3: But all the names that he did bring in, I think Elon was huge, huge, huge, because he's now adding to the team.
• 33:51
  Speaker 3: He's not just a face, right.
• 33:53
  Speaker 3: He's not just a voice, he's not just a celebrity, he's adding to the team.
• 33:56
  Speaker 3: Kid Rock's not in the administration, he's not just a celebrity, he's adding to the team.
• 33:59
  Speaker 3: Kid Rock's not in the administration, right, but there were the other folks that he brought in to be part of this, right.
• 34:04
  Speaker 3: Rfk Jr is going to be part of this.
• 34:05
  Speaker 3: He had a bit of a rock star status at the end of this and that's great.
• 34:15
  Speaker 3: So, again, the normal person, the average person, the person of intelligence and of common sense, looks and goes.
• 34:18
  Speaker 3: I don't give a crap what Oprah says, I don't care.
• 34:19
  Speaker 3: Oh, by the way, violation of election rules by paying her a million dollars for her endorsement, by the way.
• 34:24
  Speaker 2: Yeah, a million dollars.
• 34:25
  Speaker 2: I think Beyonce got a nice big chunk of change.
• 34:29
  Speaker 3: And it's all illegal.
• 34:30
  Speaker 3: It's all going to get investigated because it's all illegal yeah.
• 34:33
  Speaker 2: Yep, they paid, I don't know, hundreds of thousands of dollars apparently to build the set for that podcast that she did.
• 34:40
  Speaker 2: Yeah, so you know she's paying off people and a lot of fat good that did.
• 34:44
  Speaker 2: And, by the way, pretty sure I don't think anybody got paid to endorse Trump None of these people.
• 34:50
  Speaker 2: They did it because, right, noticing, I love that.
• 34:52
  Speaker 2: Lee Greenwood, you know, proud to be an American, yeah, yeah, he put out a statement like.
• 34:56
  Speaker 2: I've played this so many times for him, a longtime friend.
• 35:00
  Speaker 2: I have never accepted or wanted a dime for it and I'll do it over and over again, which you know.
• 35:06
  Speaker 2: Bravo, I love it.
• 35:08
  Speaker 3: So yeah, and there was a little Trump jab like, hey, we got all this extra money over here and you guys are short $20 million.
• 35:14
  Speaker 3: I mean, in the name of unity, how about I pay your bills for you?
• 35:19
  Speaker 3: And I think she actually meant it to an extent.
• 35:22
  Speaker 3: There are people who aren't going to get paid.
• 35:25
  Speaker 3: There's vendors in your contract, it's not?
• 35:29
  Speaker 2: a small number, that's a big chunk of change.
• 35:32
  Speaker 3: People are not going to get paid, they're not going to get their wage, they're not going to get their contract paid because she's $20 million short.
• 35:38
  Speaker 3: And again it goes to the fact that they don't really care about the average working person.
• 35:46
  Speaker 3: And the disconnect with the celebrities, the disconnect with policy, the disconnect in general between the Dems and the elite Dems and Hollywood and all that crap and the average American, I think, in the end was the biggest influencer of why president Trump won.
• 35:59
  Speaker 3: Yeah, because nobody, the average person in America does not relate to the democratic party anymore.
• 36:04
  Speaker 2: Right, no, no.
• 36:06
  Speaker 2: And you know, I think it became more and more obvious that the democrat party was pandering to a, to a like a baser version of people, not their intellect but their superficial needs.
• 36:22
  Speaker 2: You know, the celebrities I mean that's the celebrities are a perfect example Like, oh, we'll just, we'll just entertain you and you'll vote for us.
• 36:29
  Speaker 2: You know, because you're not smart enough to ask about the issues.
• 36:32
  Speaker 2: You know, and I think it really was, the entire campaign from the Democrat Party, from Kamala Harris, was an absolute slap in the face to their entire demographic.
• 36:43
  Speaker 2: You know, so insulting from Obama talking down to black men, to her, affecting the accent of the day and to never answer, right, you know, I mean never answering a question and just deflecting everything.
• 36:57
  Speaker 2: Well, trump, well, trump, will Trump, will Trump.
• 36:58
  Speaker 2: You know, and it's like in the America people were like lady, what are you going to do?
• 37:01
  Speaker 2: Like, what are you going to do?
• 37:02
  Speaker 2: Because what you've done so far kind of sucks.
• 37:04
  Speaker 2: So you got anything for us?
• 37:06
  Speaker 2: And you know, they underestimated and they undervalued the intellect of the people.
• 37:11
  Speaker 3: And you know, and you know our next topic is key in just the actual like how it became policy to alienate people and at the risk of personal harm, up to and including death potentially.
• 37:27
  Speaker 2: Am I pulling up FEMA?
• 37:31
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean we can do FEMA now and then we'll hit the Trump impact and the and all the nominees but the.
• 37:36
  Speaker 3: So for this, folks, if you haven't seen this, there's a FEMA worker she was a supervisor in Florida who it was proven and she's since been fired by FEMA.
• 37:46
  Speaker 3: That it was proven and she admitted to the fact that she directed her people to avoid houses and yards with Trump signs in them.
• 37:53
  Speaker 3: Um, when it came in post hurricane, um, she has since come out and said oh, that's business as usual, you'll find it in the Carolinas too.
• 38:01
  Speaker 3: We we avoid confrontation.
• 38:04
  Speaker 3: So neighborhoods that are confrontational, houses that are confrontational, people that are confrontational, we avoid first.
• 38:10
  Speaker 3: We deescalate if we have to, but that's our policy and that's how we do business.
• 38:14
  Speaker 3: So I told the people who work for me to avoid those neighborhoods, right, because they would be confrontational.
• 38:21
  Speaker 3: Wow.
• 38:23
  Speaker 2: Yeah, wow, first of all, that's a big crock of you know what you know.
• 38:26
  Speaker 2: You've decided that just because somebody has a particular sign in their yard, they are going to be confrontational with people that are there to help them.
• 38:35
  Speaker 2: Seems feasible, right.
• 38:37
  Speaker 2: And, by the way, just that side note of I believe it was Trump himself who said or at least it was people on the right saying that this was going on that there was some and of course they were like you crazy right-wingers, you conspiracy theorists.
• 38:51
  Speaker 2: That's not happening.
• 38:52
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it is.
• 38:53
  Speaker 2: And now this lady is saying oh, you think it was just happening here, it happened in all.
• 38:57
  Speaker 2: We've been doing this for a while.
• 38:59
  Speaker 2: So she's obviously, you know she's going down and she's taking the whole ship down with her, and you know that would be the only slow clap I would give her on this.
• 39:06
  Speaker 3: But you know, yeah, and again.
• 39:08
  Speaker 3: So this is how it bled into policy, right Even maybe not even written policy, but common practice within an organization, a federal organization.
• 39:16
  Speaker 3: This became the norm under this past administration.
• 39:19
  Speaker 3: Like that's how far down the road the left has gone under the Biden administration, with Harris, you know, sitting second chair on hating the right, and it is.
• 39:30
  Speaker 3: This is like negligence, willful misconduct.
• 39:33
  Speaker 3: If anybody if they can prove anybody died as a result of this, that lady and anybody who does did the same thing, needs to go to jail.
• 39:39
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and that's not like let it pass, let it go Like it's.
• 39:44
  Speaker 3: It's in no like.
• 39:45
  Speaker 3: People need to be held accountable for this stuff and for so long they haven't been.
• 39:50
  Speaker 3: You know I'm not necessarily for president Trump going around and blasting people over the next four years, but there's some of this stuff that we can't.
• 39:57
  Speaker 3: You keep saying, don't forget, and I agree with you, but there's some of it that we can't bypass.
• 40:01
  Speaker 3: Like Hunter Biden needs to go to jail Straight up.
• 40:04
  Speaker 3: That guy needs to go to jail and that's not a witch hunt thing.
• 40:06
  Speaker 3: That guy needs to go to jail.
• 40:08
  Speaker 3: This lady from FEMA if they can prove criminal negligence of any kind, she needs to go to jail.
• 40:13
  Speaker 3: There's some things that you just don't turn a blind eye to Folks in the FBI jail, oh, absolutely.
• 40:19
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, oh my gosh, yeah.
• 40:22
  Speaker 2: It infuriates me and it bothers the heck out of me when people from our side you know, of course, I expect the people on the left to say that and again, I hate the side thing, but this is where we're at right now.
• 40:33
  Speaker 2: There's no avoiding it.
• 40:34
  Speaker 2: This is where we're at.
• 40:46
  Speaker 2: I really hate when people on our side of the aisle say things like it's time to just move forward, we won and let's just enjoy that and just move on.
• 40:50
  Speaker 2: Accountability you have no idea what these people would have been doing to us if they won.
• 40:52
  Speaker 2: There are no words for how bad it would have gotten and we're never going to find out, thank God.
• 41:03
  Speaker 2: But part of me wishes that you could do this like alternate universe thing and show it to them and say this is what it would have looked like, this is what would have happened.
• 41:06
  Speaker 2: And I'm not.
• 41:07
  Speaker 2: I'm not like the whole eye for an eye thing.
• 41:09
  Speaker 2: Blah, blah, blah.
• 41:10
  Speaker 2: I just want accountability.
• 41:10
  Speaker 2: I want people to be held accountable for the things that they did, because no one is going to learn anything from it.
• 41:15
  Speaker 2: If everybody gets let off the hook for blatantly breaking laws and causing serious harm to this entire country, what do we have then?
• 41:28
  Speaker 2: What do we have?
• 41:28
  Speaker 2: That's ridiculous to me.
• 41:29
  Speaker 2: So I want them held accountable, and this isn't a vengeance thing, this is an accountability thing.
• 41:34
  Speaker 2: This is action and consequence, and I believe fully that they should be held to the fullest extent of the law.
• 41:41
  Speaker 2: Whatever penalties we know nothing's going to happen to Joe Biden, nothing's going to happen to all the things that he did.
• 41:46
  Speaker 2: Nothing's ever going to happen.
• 41:47
  Speaker 2: He'll get the pass, and I think that's crap, but it is what it is.
• 41:50
  Speaker 2: But all these other people?
• 41:52
  Speaker 2: No, we have people still sitting in federal prison for J6 who all they did was take a walking tour through the building that right there and we didn't hit this in that recap.
• 42:02
  Speaker 3: but there's two things that everybody needs to remember.
• 42:04
  Speaker 3: You keep saying it, right?
• 42:05
  Speaker 3: One, there are 15 million less votes.
• 42:11
  Speaker 3: 15 million, right yeah.
• 42:13
  Speaker 3: So you go back and you go back to like the last, you go over the last seven or eight presidential elections.
• 42:18
  Speaker 3: It's like 65 million million, sixty seven million, sixty eight million, sixty five million, sixty six million, eighty one million in 2020.
• 42:25
  Speaker 3: And then now we're back down to sixty five million and those 50 million votes evaporated evaporated.
• 42:31
  Speaker 2: Where'd they go, guys?
• 42:32
  Speaker 2: Where'd they go?
• 42:33
  Speaker 3: There'll be no.
• 42:34
  Speaker 3: That right there, yeah, is enough doubt that that election was stolen.
• 42:38
  Speaker 3: That right there is enough doubt that that election was stolen.
• 42:41
  Speaker 3: Listen, I was not a stolen election guy, but that right there, that number is indisputable and that is enough that everybody involved with J6, I think, had a right to protest and truthfully I'm not advocating for violence, but you can understand a lot more how frustrated those people were now that we've got a little bit of proof of stolen election.
• 43:02
  Speaker 3: That's one.
• 43:03
  Speaker 3: The other thing to remember is that Mr Casey in Pennsylvania still has not conceded, still.
• 43:10
  Speaker 3: Okay, we'll talk about election deniers in four frigging years Right, because everybody you know talked that about Trump for the last four years.
• 43:18
  Speaker 3: And blah, blah, blah blah Still have somebody that hasn't conceded.
• 43:21
  Speaker 3: Okay, so chuck that down and keep that in your back pocket.
• 43:25
  Speaker 3: For four years from now.
• 43:26
  Speaker 3: We go through this crap again.
• 43:27
  Speaker 3: But let's go out on a little bit happier note.
• 43:30
  Speaker 3: Let's talk about the awesome things that have already started happening.
• 43:33
  Speaker 3: Right, You've got the chart right of everything that that has happened already let me pull this guy up.
• 43:39
  Speaker 2: This is, oh my gosh.
• 43:41
  Speaker 2: This is so, so, so wild and so fan stinkin tastic.
• 43:46
  Speaker 2: Hang on a second, guys.
• 43:47
  Speaker 2: My eyesight is work okay, so so we're calling it so it's called the trump effect.
• 43:51
  Speaker 2: 72 hours after winning the 2024 election, the first female, first female chief of staff appointed, susie Wiles, right New York City to stop giving debit cards to illegals.
• 44:05
  Speaker 2: Us companies bring production home.
• 44:08
  Speaker 2: Stock market hitting all-time highs.
• 44:10
  Speaker 2: Bitcoin hitting all-time highs.
• 44:12
  Speaker 2: Newest migrant caravan is breaking up.
• 44:15
  Speaker 2: Qatar agrees to evict Hamas leaders.
• 44:18
  Speaker 2: Hamas wants immediate end to war.
• 44:21
  Speaker 2: Taliban claims to want new chapter.
• 44:23
  Speaker 2: China wants peaceful coexistence.
• 44:26
  Speaker 2: Russia is ready to speak with the US.
• 44:28
  Speaker 2: The EU wants to buy US gas, not Russian gas, and Ukraine leaders are in talks with Trump and Elon.
• 44:35
  Speaker 2: And that's just the tip of the iceberg.
• 44:37
  Speaker 2: There is so much more winning happening.
• 44:41
  Speaker 2: It is Wow.
• 44:43
  Speaker 3: It is like we called the Hamas thing Like yes, for self credit.
• 44:46
  Speaker 2: We've been saying that you get the credit I'm giving you.
• 44:48
  Speaker 2: That's 100 percent.
• 44:49
  Speaker 2: You you called it.
• 44:50
  Speaker 3: He's fixing that.
• 44:51
  Speaker 3: That's getting fixed already, right?
• 44:52
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, and that bleeds off into Iran, right?
• 44:55
  Speaker 3: And then you know, I think you've already got Zelensky.
• 44:59
  Speaker 3: Did he already talked to?
• 45:00
  Speaker 2: Zelensky.
• 45:00
  Speaker 3: I think so, I think so Already spoken Right and of course Zelensky is doing this number.
• 45:05
  Speaker 3: You know he's asking for more money.
• 45:06
  Speaker 3: I did see a threat, which I thought was hilarious, from the secretary general of NATO, who is like I will personally kick the United States out of NATO.
• 45:17
  Speaker 3: Have a good time.
• 45:21
  Speaker 3: Let me know how that works out, for you, yeah, oh, stop, you're hurting us.
• 45:25
  Speaker 3: Yeah, so, but there's.
• 45:27
  Speaker 3: There's a lot of activity.
• 45:29
  Speaker 3: There was, in the first 72 hours and in the first seven days, a lot of activity directly as a result of president Trump being reelected.
• 45:35
  Speaker 3: The world has stepped back and taken notice.
• 45:37
  Speaker 3: It's not what the Democrats it to be.
• 45:41
  Speaker 3: There are a lot of countries I saw a lot of countries I don't know if you saw this in their parliaments or their governmental buildings, whatever huge applause when the announcements came across.
• 45:52
  Speaker 3: I know in Eastern Europe and in countries in Asia there was tons of applause.
• 45:57
  Speaker 3: Many, many people, many governments around the world God I sound like Trump are saying you know they were very happy, right that he got he got reelected.
• 46:04
  Speaker 3: The global reaction has been overall, very, very good.
• 46:07
  Speaker 2: Yes, Well, you know, I think, I think the simple fact is is that most countries, most people, with very, a very small exception, they want peace.
• 46:18
  Speaker 3: Everybody wants peace, the right, I mean the Democrats right now.
• 46:25
  Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly, exactly, boom, you know.
• 46:29
  Speaker 2: Look where the money goes, that's it.
• 46:31
  Speaker 2: Follow the money, right, that's always the rule Follow the money, follow the money, who's getting rich?
• 46:34
  Speaker 2: And we all know who's getting rich.
• 46:36
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and he's been busy with the appointments even today, right, so just we can work backwards from today, but I mean today alone, four big appointments.
• 46:43
  Speaker 3: I think Pete Hedge that was was it last night?
• 46:45
  Speaker 2: I think, think pete hegseth was.
• 46:46
  Speaker 2: Was it last night?
• 46:47
  Speaker 2: I think that was last night.
• 46:48
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I was like I'll be honest in my in my opinion of today and he had four big ones today he's too good and too bad, and I was really.
• 46:54
  Speaker 2: I loved everything he did, up until um hegseth for secta tell me why you don't like him, because I I took a quick look at his specs, if you will, and he sounded really good to me on paper.
• 47:04
  Speaker 2: Why, why are you not loving so?
• 47:06
  Speaker 3: uh, so DOD is the biggest enterprise in the federal government and when I say it's massive, right, think of it's not just the Pentagon, it's all four services.
• 47:17
  Speaker 3: Right, we have their own service chiefs and all, but you have all four services of the basic services.
• 47:23
  Speaker 3: Plus you've got Coast Guard and you've got Space Force and oh, by the way, the DOD structure itself, which isn't just under the umbrellas of the services.
• 47:31
  Speaker 3: It is a massive, massive organization.
• 47:33
  Speaker 3: He has zero experience leading large organizations Zero.
• 47:37
  Speaker 3: Okay, People are getting wrapped around.
• 47:39
  Speaker 3: Well, he was an officer in the army.
• 47:41
  Speaker 3: Okay, he was a major, and he was in the National Guard.
• 47:43
  Speaker 3: Oh, by the way, qualifies you for not that you have to be military to be the sec def.
• 47:48
  Speaker 3: In fact, it's not a requirement and I'm okay with somebody not, but his experience doesn't add anything.
• 47:55
  Speaker 3: Truthfully, everybody's like oh, he's got combat experience, so what All of us do?
• 48:00
  Speaker 3: And oh by the way, all the service chiefs do and everybody who works in the Pentagon does, right, I mean, if we're measuring things on combat experience, you know General Petraeus, who a lot of people love me personally, but some people do he had no combat experience until he was a two star general leading the 101st Airborne Division in 2003 in Iraq.
• 48:15
  Speaker 3: None, ok, junior officer Eisenhower had no combat experience until he was a four star leading all forces in World War Two.
• 48:22
  Speaker 3: All right, combat experience does not make you qualified for a job like that.
• 48:26
  Speaker 3: Fair, yeah, and truthfully, there's he's.
• 48:29
  Speaker 3: He's talking about a lot of things like he was on the Sean Ryan show.
• 48:32
  Speaker 3: He's done a couple of appearances where he's talking about a lot of things that need to go away the EI and and all this woke crap.
• 48:38
  Speaker 3: And I agree with all of that, right, the problem with the problem with it is is that DOD doesn't stand alone by itself and it doesn't just get to make decisions on its own.
• 48:46
  Speaker 3: There's the House Armed Services Committee, the Senate Armed Services Committee.
• 48:50
  Speaker 3: The budget is approved by Congress.
• 48:52
  Speaker 3: The general officer, flag officer appointments are all approved by Congress.
• 48:57
  Speaker 3: He's complaining about generals being politicized inside a DOD.
• 49:01
  Speaker 3: That's because they're approved by Congress.
• 49:03
  Speaker 3: They have to have political support to progress.
• 49:06
  Speaker 3: He can't change that and he says I'm going to get rid of all those people, then you're going to get rid of all of them.
• 49:11
  Speaker 3: He doesn't understand the process because he's never worked in it.
• 49:16
  Speaker 3: Even as a National Guard officer, he got activated for a couple of deployments.
• 49:19
  Speaker 3: He's never worked in the apparatus, so he's saying things out loud that he really has no experience with and they're blind spots for him, and I think it is such a massive undertaking that he's going to spend a whole year trying to figure out his job and president Trump is not going to be patient with him for a year.
• 49:37
  Speaker 2: No who would you?
• 49:38
  Speaker 2: Who would do?
• 49:39
  Speaker 2: You have anybody in mind that would be on your short list for that?
• 49:42
  Speaker 3: Yeah, People have asked me that because a lot of people asked me my opinion about Hegseth and I.
• 49:45
  Speaker 3: You know, I know some folks kind of on the fringes of things, um, that I, I I would name or at least consider, but you know, that is a there are too many people out in the business world who I think should be considered, um, who know and understand large organizations and how to run them, and those kinds of things that I think should be considered.
• 50:06
  Speaker 3: That I don't know, I would never offer a name because the pool is too big and I'm just unfamiliar with it.
• 50:10
  Speaker 3: I do know that Pete Hegseth is not, in my opinion, qualified to do that job.
• 50:14
  Speaker 3: If he's qualified, then I'm overqualified because I got a lot more experience than he does.
• 50:18
  Speaker 3: And oh, by the way, I'm not qualified to be the second.
• 50:21
  Speaker 2: I was going to say I would nominate you, clay, but I don't want you to leave my show.
• 50:24
  Speaker 2: You can't leave our show.
• 50:27
  Speaker 3: But I am a fan of Tulsi as the DNI right.
• 50:29
  Speaker 2: Love her.
• 50:30
  Speaker 2: Yes, as the director of national intelligence, that's your girl.
• 50:31
  Speaker 3: CIA works for her.
• 50:33
  Speaker 3: Yeah, the entire intelligence apparatus works for her.
• 50:35
  Speaker 3: I think it's great.
• 50:36
  Speaker 3: I love it.
• 50:37
  Speaker 3: I'm not a fan of Matt Gaetz as the attorney general.
• 50:40
  Speaker 3: That guy's got too much legal stuff in question in his past.
• 50:44
  Speaker 3: He's got a DUI charge that looks like it got covered up.
• 50:47
  Speaker 3: Even if it didn't, it looks like it did.
• 50:49
  Speaker 3: There was a charge of sex trafficking.
• 50:51
  Speaker 3: That's not the guy that we.
• 50:54
  Speaker 3: He may not make it through confirmation, but I don't think he's a good candidate.
• 50:58
  Speaker 2: So each one, every single one is considered a nominee right.
• 51:01
  Speaker 2: Every single one has to go through that vetting process.
• 51:04
  Speaker 3: Congressional yes, they have to testify in front of congress and okay, approved.
• 51:08
  Speaker 3: Um, I do love marco rubio as sex state.
• 51:12
  Speaker 3: Okay, yeah, like that to me today, as much as I love tulsi as the dni.
• 51:17
  Speaker 3: Yeah, sex state.
• 51:19
  Speaker 3: Like, knocked it out of the park.
• 51:20
  Speaker 3: That was the one of the best picks that he could make.
• 51:22
  Speaker 3: Um, you know, we've got uh, christy noem at dhs.
• 51:25
  Speaker 3: Now that's his name there.
• 51:27
  Speaker 3: He's got the.
• 51:29
  Speaker 3: What is it?
• 51:29
  Speaker 3: Dog, dog, dodge, what is it called?
• 51:32
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's Elon and Vivek are going to be heading the Department of Government Efficiency.
• 51:38
  Speaker 2: They're going to be cutting out all the fat.
• 51:40
  Speaker 3: That's going to be-.
• 51:41
  Speaker 2: Love it.
• 51:41
  Speaker 2: Listen, I want the biggest baddest, meaning best security detail on these people.
• 51:47
  Speaker 2: Biggest baddest, meaning best security detail on these people I want them to be protected with, like people who are armed to the teeth.
• 51:53
  Speaker 2: I want, like I'm so excited and also scared for these people because of the amount of people that they are going to be pissing off.
• 52:02
  Speaker 3: Like they're going to make it public, so they're going to post every single day the things that they like, all the action that they take're going to post every single day the things that they like.
• 52:10
  Speaker 3: Action that they take is going to be for total transparency is supposed to be posted every day.
• 52:13
  Speaker 3: Oh, by the way, they're going to have a tote board, a scoreboard of the most absurd government overspending, and they're going to post it all the time.
• 52:22
  Speaker 2: This is like so exciting.
• 52:24
  Speaker 2: This is literally giving power back to the people.
• 52:28
  Speaker 2: Transparency is key, right, and it's so ironic to all you freaking Froot Loops out there that keep saying Trump's going to be a dictator.
• 52:35
  Speaker 2: Trump is literally giving the powers back to the states, back to the people.
• 52:40
  Speaker 2: Day one before even day one.
• 52:42
  Speaker 2: Like get it through your thick idiot heads and I'm sorry to be so aggressively mean about it, but it can't be any more in your face, like it's so clear what's happening, what he's doing and it's what you should want as an American.
• 52:58
  Speaker 2: Like the number of people that don't understand the whole principle of putting these powers back to the states.
• 53:02
  Speaker 2: One, it's because that's where they belonged all along and two, because your state representatives failed.
• 53:09
  Speaker 2: They failed to protect that constitutional laws and rights and abilities.
• 53:15
  Speaker 2: The federal government has been given way too many powers, way too many.
• 53:19
  Speaker 2: How many freaking departments can you have, which is, of course, is all part of you know?
• 53:24
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and oh my gosh, you see heads exploding about his Department of Education announcement.
• 53:30
  Speaker 3: I didn't see that.
• 53:30
  Speaker 3: Who is it?
• 53:31
  Speaker 2: Oh, oh, no, oh, he's going to get rid of the Department of Education.
• 53:35
  Speaker 3: Well it's.
• 53:35
  Speaker 3: It's a beautiful thing because, you know, jimmy Carter started it in 1976 and we went from number one in the world to 24th in the world and never made it back.
• 53:45
  Speaker 2: So never made it back.
• 53:46
  Speaker 3: That is unacceptable, so yeah, yes, you and I talked about this even before we started recording with the exception of RFK right, and we don't know where RFK is going to land in this administration.
• 53:55
  Speaker 3: He is going to get a job, but this is a young team.
• 54:00
  Speaker 3: The folks that he is bringing in are young.
• 54:02
  Speaker 3: There's no 68, 72-year-old career politicians in this cabinet, in this architecture of any kind right Again, with RFK as the exception.
• 54:12
  Speaker 3: But think about the people we talked about Rubio Tulsi, hegseth's young right Gates is young.
• 54:18
  Speaker 3: Kristi Noem's young, vance is young.
• 54:21
  Speaker 3: This is a very young, new age conservative team that he is bringing in and he's setting the party up for a very long time.
• 54:30
  Speaker 2: Yes, this is so strategically brilliant and positive and beneficial for this country.
• 54:36
  Speaker 2: I think I can speak for so many people in this country right now when I say I'm finally feeling hope again, because I really feared for this country and I was emotionally and mentally preparing for it to become a lost civilization, like just to go down the way of the Romans you know into.
• 54:58
  Speaker 2: We're close, yeah, I mean, we're on the precipice of that right.
• 55:01
  Speaker 3: I agree.
• 55:02
  Speaker 2: And I feel like this is our chance, this is our opportunity to you know, to right the ship and get steering on the right course again.
• 55:08
  Speaker 2: And I'm so excited for the future and again anxious.
• 55:11
  Speaker 2: So I know I've said it in past episodes, I'm going to say it again to you guys If you are the praying kind, prayers up for that hedge of protection, man, and if you're not the praying kind, just hope for it.
• 55:22
  Speaker 2: Hope for it, it all works.
• 55:24
  Speaker 2: It all works.
• 55:25
  Speaker 3: I agree with you.
• 55:26
  Speaker 3: It all works.
• 55:30
  Speaker 3: It all works, I agree with you, and I think that the fact that there has been absolutely zero violence in response to the election is an indicator that people are on board with this.
• 55:36
  Speaker 3: Yes, that you know.
• 55:37
  Speaker 3: Listen, some crazy women shaving their heads.
• 55:39
  Speaker 3: That's not violence, right?
• 55:40
  Speaker 3: But what we didn't see was we didn't see George Floyd riots.
• 55:43
  Speaker 3: We didn't see, you know, the riots of 2020.
• 55:45
  Speaker 3: We didn't see any of that stuff.
• 55:46
  Speaker 3: There was zero violence the day after the election.
• 55:48
  Speaker 3: Now we'll see what happens come inauguration time, but I think we're on a positive note, which we try to end on a positive note.
• 55:54
  Speaker 3: We do.
• 55:55
  Speaker 3: We do the things that we've covered at the end of the show are all great indicators that we're headed in the right direction, and I'm with you.
• 56:00
  Speaker 3: I do have a feeling that we are headed in the right direction as a nation, not just because of President Trump and the administration, but because of everything surrounding it, and I think this is a time to feel good about where we are and where we're going.
• 56:12
