Transcript
- 0:02Speaker 1: Having the leader of the free world in office and
- 0:05Speaker 1: being one of the biggest Internet trolls. You know that
- 0:08Speaker 1: term that we've used so often, one of the biggest
- 0:11Speaker 1: trolls we've ever seen, is the most unbelievable thing. It's
- 0:14Speaker 1: like a gift from the heavens for people, anybody that
- 0:16Speaker 1: makes content like I do. It's like served up to
- 0:19Speaker 1: you on a silver platter. But there's something else with
- 0:22Speaker 1: Trump using social media the way he does. He has
- 0:26Speaker 1: absolutely no pushback from the Democrats because they don't know
- 0:30Speaker 1: how to handle it. They just the Democrats. They don't
- 0:32Speaker 1: seem to be able to catch up with humor. You
- 0:35Speaker 1: know that expression we've heard so many times is like
- 0:37Speaker 1: the left can't meme. What they're saying is they're humorless.
- 0:41Speaker 1: So when Trump does something like with it's going on
- 0:43Speaker 1: with changing ice to nice, which is trending right now,
- 0:46Speaker 1: there's no catch up, there's no pushback, there's nothing going
- 0:50Speaker 1: on on the other side. And that's why it's so effective.
- 0:53Speaker 1: And he gets people to look into the issue even
- 0:54Speaker 1: more even though he's making an initial joke, and it
- 0:57Speaker 1: gets people to seriously think about it. This is just classic.
- 1:00Speaker 1: But I was thinking about this what if that actually
- 1:03Speaker 1: ever did happen, Now that he's reposting that meme, what
- 1:05Speaker 1: would it be like? Well, we're gonna play a little game.
- 1:08Speaker 1: I did a little internet search on my own, and
- 1:10Speaker 1: I just asked rock on x GROC, what some recent
- 1:14Speaker 1: anti ice headlines sound like if you replaced ice with
- 1:17Speaker 1: nice and the results did not disappoint? A little fun
- 1:20Speaker 1: game he could play tonight at dinner, later on, at
- 1:22Speaker 1: lunch or whatever you want to do. Just replace ice
- 1:24Speaker 1: with nice, like he's saying, and see how it goes. Anyway,
- 1:27Speaker 1: we'll play along with that. Begs yourvid A, wicked radio,
- 1:30Speaker 1: livestream and the replay x YouTube, Facebook, all that crap
- 1:33Speaker 1: and your favorite audio podcast platforms, whatever they ask you
- 1:37Speaker 1: to do. You found me there, so thank you so much,
- 1:39Speaker 1: appreciate it very much, all right now. The first time
- 1:42Speaker 1: I had ever heard the concept of changing ice to
- 1:47Speaker 1: nice was the late Great Scott Adams on his live stream.
- 1:50Speaker 1: I remember listening to this distinctly because I was laughing
- 1:53Speaker 1: out loud in my car driving home from the station
- 1:55Speaker 1: one morning, because one of his live stream viewers put
- 2:00Speaker 1: in the comments the idea of changing ice to ice
- 2:03Speaker 1: is somebody else who actually should get credit for this,
- 2:06Speaker 1: A comedian who get credit for this for first proposing
- 2:08Speaker 1: this on stage. But this is the moment. This is
- 2:10Speaker 1: the first time, personally I ever heard of this. This
- 2:12Speaker 1: was Scott Adams in twenty eighteen Live when somebody suggested
- 2:17Speaker 1: it on his show.
- 2:18Speaker 2: Change Ice to nice. Oh my god, that's so funny.
- 2:26Speaker 2: And do you know why that would be easy? Because
- 2:28Speaker 2: N stands for national? What's the rest of ICE stand
- 2:31Speaker 2: for immigration? Can somebody tell me what ICE stands for? Immigration? Something? Enforcement?
- 2:40Speaker 2: What's the sea and ice? Can somebody tell me what
- 2:45Speaker 2: the sea? Oh? Customs? Immigration? Customs enforcement? Is that it? So?
- 2:53Speaker 2: Why couldn't it be national immigration customs enforcement? Why can't
- 2:59Speaker 2: ice be nice? You know what? It would be hilarious.
- 3:05Speaker 2: I'm not suggesting this, but it would just be hilarious
- 3:08Speaker 2: if Trump changed the name of ice and nice so
- 3:12Speaker 2: that when the Democrats try to eliminate it, they're eliminating nice.
- 3:18Speaker 1: First time I ever heard it, it had actually been
- 3:20Speaker 1: out there in the ether before that. We'll give credit
- 3:24Speaker 1: to Adam Carolla here in just a second. But now
- 3:26Speaker 1: let's flash forward from twenty eighteen to twenty twenty six,
- 3:30Speaker 1: because in recent days somebody got the attention of Trump
- 3:34Speaker 1: and posted on there we should change Ice to nice.
- 3:36Speaker 1: Trump reposts this a couple of weeks ago, and he says,
- 3:40Speaker 1: great idea, Let's do it. You gotta do it. You
- 3:43Speaker 1: gotta change nice, you gotta change ice to ice. Let's
- 3:46Speaker 1: do it. Great ideas. Right, So this got rolling everywhere.
- 3:50Speaker 1: This got everybody. And then last night, in real time,
- 3:53Speaker 1: last night on Sinco Demio of all Things twenty twenty six,
- 3:58Speaker 1: he posts on truth Social a picture of what the
- 4:02Speaker 1: actual emblem of nice would look like with national immigration
- 4:06Speaker 1: customs enforcement there, with the with the official seal on
- 4:10Speaker 1: there and everything else. This has driven his political enemies
- 4:14Speaker 1: absolutely insane. And I'll give you my theory once again.
- 4:17Speaker 1: Like I said in the introduction there, I think they're
- 4:19Speaker 1: driving them insane because they don't know how to respond. Now,
- 4:22Speaker 1: what would the what would the rational smart PR crisis
- 4:26Speaker 1: management response be from anybody? Right, you would expect this
- 4:30Speaker 1: coming from political opponents, anti ice people, even people in
- 4:34Speaker 1: the media, right, you would expect the natural response would
- 4:36Speaker 1: be something like this. He's making He's mocking a very
- 4:40Speaker 1: serious issue. And people on the street are you know,
- 4:42Speaker 1: being affected by this and blah, blah, you know, and
- 4:44Speaker 1: they make their point in there. Have you seen that?
- 4:48Speaker 1: Have you heard it anywhere? Crickets nothing, no response, nothing.
- 4:52Speaker 1: Do you know why? That is? Because they don't know how.
- 4:55Speaker 1: They just don't know how. I wasn't sure. I didn't
- 4:57Speaker 1: know what to make of this saying years ago when
- 5:00Speaker 1: people started saying it, But I believe it wholeheartedly. Now
- 5:03Speaker 1: the saying is the left is humorless, and I think
- 5:08Speaker 1: that's really key. Very smart people have said if you
- 5:11Speaker 1: want to make any point to anybody now, you have
- 5:14Speaker 1: to have a sense of humor. You just have to
- 5:16Speaker 1: if you want to you know, do I have to
- 5:17Speaker 1: be funny? Only if you want to get paid. This
- 5:19Speaker 1: is what Trump understands. Internet age being what it is,
- 5:23Speaker 1: ad d nation being what it is, Our attention spans
- 5:26Speaker 1: are gone. We have this need to be entertained to
- 5:30Speaker 1: make a point, whatever it is. We didn't write the rules.
- 5:33Speaker 1: Those are the rules of the game. Now. Trump totally
- 5:35Speaker 1: understands that whether or not you're a Trump supporter, it
- 5:38Speaker 1: doesn't matter. You have to acknowledge the fact nobody communicates
- 5:42Speaker 1: like this guy. It's amazing, all right. So I told
- 5:45Speaker 1: you the first time I ever heard of the concept
- 5:47Speaker 1: that's still making me laugh of changing ice and ice.
- 5:49Speaker 1: Was that clip I played for you, Scott Adams in
- 5:51Speaker 1: twenty eighteen. Early the credit seems to be going to
- 5:54Speaker 1: Adam Carolla though, comedian TV guy. He's got a great podcast.
- 5:58Speaker 1: He was one of the he's been doing podcast for
- 5:59Speaker 1: year right alongside not with but alongside Joe Rogan. And
- 6:03Speaker 1: he did this is September of twenty five, so this
- 6:06Speaker 1: is just this past September. He was on Jesse water
- 6:09Speaker 1: Show on Fox where he's repeating his line. Now, apparently
- 6:12Speaker 1: people are coming out and saying, I saw Aim Corolla
- 6:14Speaker 1: do this same joke changing ice to ice in twenty eighteen,
- 6:17Speaker 1: right around the same time. Maybe that's where Scott Adams
- 6:20Speaker 1: listeners heard of it. But this is him talking about
- 6:23Speaker 1: the idea of Jesse Waters this pass forward.
- 6:25Speaker 3: I came up with a way to save ice though,
- 6:28Speaker 3: and this is an exclusive for your show, Jesse. You're
- 6:31Speaker 3: gonna love this all right. They hate ice. Newsome hates ice.
- 6:35Speaker 3: They're declaring war on ice. AOC wants to abolish ice,
- 6:40Speaker 3: immigration customs enforcement. Right, they hate ice. It's a national organization.
- 6:47Speaker 3: Start it with the word N. Started with the word N.
- 6:52Speaker 3: I love it. Good luck. Try imagine national, Imagine Davin Newsome,
- 6:58Speaker 3: these nice agents pulling up here on they're nice.
- 7:01Speaker 1: Fans Nice, same concept, but you get it. So I
- 7:05Speaker 1: think it goes credit to because he said it on
- 7:07Speaker 1: stage way back when Adam Carolla and then the people
- 7:09Speaker 1: like Scott Adams picked up. But now look what happens
- 7:11Speaker 1: with humor when you make a point and do a
- 7:13Speaker 1: humor with humor. Now Trump gets a hold of it
- 7:16Speaker 1: and he's reposting things going great, idea, we should change
- 7:19Speaker 1: it to nice. Fantastic idea. A couple of weeks later
- 7:21Speaker 1: after that, he's posting on truth Social, which is now
- 7:24Speaker 1: everywhere this morning, what the actual emblem and seal for
- 7:28Speaker 1: nice would be. This is a great communication technique, all right,
- 7:32Speaker 1: So here's the fun we're going to have this morning.
- 7:33Speaker 1: You can do this on your own, ask your own
- 7:36Speaker 1: prompt for any AI you want to do. It could
- 7:37Speaker 1: be chat GPT, could be grock like I did. It
- 7:39Speaker 1: could be anything really anything even that Google AI think
- 7:45Speaker 1: which is kind of slow, but still use that and
- 7:47Speaker 1: do this prompt right. This is exactly word for word
- 7:51Speaker 1: what I just fed into and saw my screen right
- 7:53Speaker 1: now to grok this morning, Grock, give me some recent
- 7:57Speaker 1: anti ICE headlines. I want to change Ice to nice.
- 8:02Speaker 1: This is what Grock sent back to me with some
- 8:04Speaker 1: anti Ice headlines. And I'll do exactly that. I'll change
- 8:07Speaker 1: Ice in the headline to nice. And you find out
- 8:09Speaker 1: how ridiculous this sounds. And again the point being, once
- 8:12Speaker 1: you realize how ridiculous it sounds, you realize how absolutely
- 8:17Speaker 1: insane it is for lamestream media and lunatic far left
- 8:23Speaker 1: Democrats who want to abolish this organization, all right, and
- 8:25Speaker 1: they'll show you in the headlines. Here's some generic ones.
- 8:29Speaker 1: Video appears to show Nice agent tasing multiple men. Anti
- 8:34Speaker 1: Nice mob violently confronts federal agents. New York City Mayor
- 8:39Speaker 1: Zoron Mandani responds to incident involving anti Nice protesters. Hochel
- 8:45Speaker 1: torch for anti Nice policies. Former NYPD chief slams Mamdani
- 8:52Speaker 1: over response to anti Nice clashes. There's some other ones.
- 8:55Speaker 1: Those seem to be all based in New York for
- 8:56Speaker 1: some reason. I guess because it's a big focus the
- 8:58Speaker 1: anti Nice reasons. Distance is working. That's the guardian. That's
- 9:04Speaker 1: what it would have been if it was Nice before Ice.
- 9:06Speaker 1: You know what, I'm saying more than three hundred anti
- 9:09Speaker 1: Nice protests held across the country. Thousands of students ditch
- 9:13Speaker 1: class as anti Nice protests surge in twenty twenty six.
- 9:17Speaker 1: Various outlets on that one. Of course, because you know
- 9:19Speaker 1: the propaganda works, they all steal the same headline. Video
- 9:23Speaker 1: appears to show Nice agent tasing man multiple times ahead
- 9:28Speaker 1: of bushweek hospital The anti Nice resistance is working even
- 9:34Speaker 1: better than before. Could go on, try this tonight, try
- 9:40Speaker 1: this today, just feed it in and it's fantastic, and
- 9:42Speaker 1: remember and then you go forward even without an AI prompt.
- 9:46Speaker 1: Just look at recent headlines, all the anti ICE propaganda
- 9:49Speaker 1: that's out there, all the attacks, right, all this recent stuff.
- 9:52Speaker 1: With which state is it? I think it might have
- 9:56Speaker 1: been Connecticut. Connecticut just the other day just enacted all
- 9:59Speaker 1: for show. It's all performative. It means nothing because federal
- 10:02Speaker 1: law supersedes it. But they just enacted a state law
- 10:05Speaker 1: where ICE agents or excuse me, nice agents have to
- 10:08Speaker 1: take their masks off in the state of Connecticut. Just
- 10:11Speaker 1: absolutely insane and ridiculous. Now when you look at it
- 10:14Speaker 1: with with that prompt in mind, keep in mind to
- 10:18Speaker 1: just call it nice agents have to take their masks off.
- 10:23Speaker 1: It's just insane. But that's why it's so effective, and
- 10:26Speaker 1: that's why it's so good, and that's why this stuff
- 10:28Speaker 1: is happening now, is it? Okay, what's it going to
- 10:31Speaker 1: take to actually make this happen? To actually change the name? Now?
- 10:35Speaker 1: Any other president I don't think would have put out
- 10:37Speaker 1: the memes out there and even responding to, you know,
- 10:41Speaker 1: a supporter saying, great idea, let's do it, gotta change it,
- 10:45Speaker 1: gotta change the name. Okay, wouldn't have done that. I
- 10:48Speaker 1: know for sure. We would never would have had a
- 10:50Speaker 1: past president or any national leader who actually would have
- 10:53Speaker 1: posted a meme or a picture a proposed idea of
- 10:58Speaker 1: the actual nice federal seal of what that would look like.
- 11:02Speaker 1: But now we have one, and it's so freaking effective
- 11:04Speaker 1: because he's now got everybody talking about it. But it's
- 11:07Speaker 1: something more than that. And this is the part that
- 11:09Speaker 1: goes well a little bit deeper. But when you think
- 11:11Speaker 1: about it, you realize exactly what's happening here Ice. The
- 11:15Speaker 1: anti Ice fervor had kind of died out a little bit,
- 11:19Speaker 1: but along that support for Ice had too, you know what,
- 11:22Speaker 1: just got rekindled, not so much not so much the
- 11:26Speaker 1: opposition to the Ice agents the support for them did
- 11:30Speaker 1: and it came in the form of this meme. This
- 11:32Speaker 1: is why this guy is so effective at communicating. Trump
- 11:35Speaker 1: totally understands that.
- 11:37Speaker 3: You know.
- 11:37Speaker 1: It's like these, these memes and political things and even
- 11:40Speaker 1: the little AI videos that are out there on social
- 11:42Speaker 1: media you see all the time. These are the new
- 11:43Speaker 1: versions of political cartoons like they used to have in
- 11:46Speaker 1: the forties and fifties, sixties, even seventies. Right, They used
- 11:49Speaker 1: to put it in the paper. Everybody would read it,
- 11:51Speaker 1: they would clip it out, they'd put it in their
- 11:52Speaker 1: their their office wall, they'd share it at the fan,
- 11:54Speaker 1: put it on the fridge, whatever it is. Now that
- 11:57Speaker 1: we're all on these and I'm for audio only listeners,
- 12:00Speaker 1: I'm holding my phone. These are the new messages. This
- 12:03Speaker 1: is how it's all done. And just like with the
- 12:05Speaker 1: old political cartoons, if you want to get a point across,
- 12:07Speaker 1: you do it with humor. Nobody understands that better than Trump.
- 12:10Speaker 1: He is the best communicator at this we've ever seen
- 12:13Speaker 1: in that office. And he's doing it again with this.
- 12:15Speaker 1: So you watch what happens, whether or not the unbelievable happens,
- 12:18Speaker 1: and an actual name change happens with this ice and
- 12:24Speaker 1: nice concept and idea. Throw that out for a second,
- 12:27Speaker 1: because the message has already been sent. Now that you've
- 12:31Speaker 1: got people, you have to keep people top of mind
- 12:33Speaker 1: of issues like this. And he totally understands this. Now
- 12:35Speaker 1: you've got more support for ice agents by calling them
- 12:39Speaker 1: nice agents than ever before. You watch this wind happen
- 12:43Speaker 1: in real time, and it's unbelievable. The other thing that's
- 12:45Speaker 1: happening a side note and a separate story. I don't
- 12:47Speaker 1: know if you caught this right along the same lines.
- 12:49Speaker 1: Also a visual imagery. Eric Trump posted the first official
- 12:56Speaker 1: sign for Palm Beach inch National Airport being changed to
- 13:00Speaker 1: Donald Trump International Airport, with the airport code being DJT.
- 13:04Speaker 1: And it's driving the Trump Derangement syndrome sufferers out of
- 13:10Speaker 1: their minds. You know they're doing this on purpose. Oh
- 13:15Speaker 1: nobody does it better. I'm telling you, they get it.
- 13:17Speaker 1: I think even Eric Trump understands that. So that's where
- 13:21Speaker 1: we are. Change Eiston nice play that little game today
- 13:24Speaker 1: at lunch on your work break. Just propped it into
- 13:27Speaker 1: any of the grock is great at this. I gave
- 13:28Speaker 1: you some of those headlines anti nice protests working, Sure,
- 13:33Speaker 1: do that at dinner whatever it is, and have some
- 13:35Speaker 1: fun with it, and you understand exactly why Trump does
- 13:38Speaker 1: what he does with those with those memes he sends
- 13:40Speaker 1: out because it's really effective. Extra hanging out with me,
- 13:43Speaker 1: I gotta get out of here, a lot to do,
