Even the Lefties Agree! · Armstrong & Getty One More Thing

0:00
Speaker 1: Even the lefties agree. It's one more thing.
0:04
Speaker 2: I'm strong, one more thing in a witch.
0:14
Speaker 3: I was playing golf and this friend of mine. I
0:18
Speaker 3: had no idea of his politics, and I don't really care.
0:20
Speaker 3: But it turns out he's not only a lefty but
0:23
Speaker 3: hates Trump with an enthusiasm that would be difficult to
0:27
Speaker 3: properly describe those people. And when that came out, it
0:32
Speaker 3: it made things a little uncomfortable.
0:34
Speaker 4: Not that I'm a huge fan or anything, but I mean.
0:36
Speaker 3: He was like seriously, seriously fired up and well seriously serious.
0:42
Speaker 1: Well, it depends on how you're built. If I if
0:44
Speaker 1: I'm in a group of people and I don't know
0:47
Speaker 1: their political leanings and somebody is like really really animated
0:54
Speaker 1: one way or the other about a political issue, it
0:56
Speaker 1: makes me incredibly uncomfortable, even if I one hundred percent
0:58
Speaker 1: agree with them, Even if I could say the same
1:01
Speaker 1: thing myself, it just makes me like, ah, dude or ma'am, really,
1:05
Speaker 1: I don't come on, you're making some people here? What
1:09
Speaker 1: are we doing?
1:10
Speaker 3: I agree with you completely. In this case, it was
1:12
Speaker 3: just the two of us, and it was quite restrained.
1:15
Speaker 1: Did he know you passion? But does he know where
1:18
Speaker 1: you are? On this.
1:19
Speaker 4: I think he has an idea.
1:22
Speaker 1: But so anytime you do that around somebody else, you're
1:26
Speaker 1: either saying, would you like to debate me? And I've
1:28
Speaker 1: already made it clear I'm gonna come hard or would
1:31
Speaker 1: you like to just keep this like civil and friendly?
1:34
Speaker 1: Well the latter, I don't want to debate you, and
1:37
Speaker 1: you're gonna come really hard and be strident, and I
1:39
Speaker 1: got to push back to make this worth it. I mean,
1:41
Speaker 1: I'm not in the mood.
1:43
Speaker 5: People like that are asking for an argument.
1:45
Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly, So did you bait him?
1:49
Speaker 4: Or No, that's not the way it came off at all.
1:51
Speaker 1: Take off your shirt, take off your shoe.
1:54
Speaker 3: If you are describing something that didn't happen, but I
1:58
Speaker 3: agree with you as you described it.
2:00
Speaker 1: Undo your belt you put them up in your rastle.
2:04
Speaker 4: I'd have lost that badly.
2:06
Speaker 1: And today is Abe Lincoln's birthday. It's a perfect day
2:09
Speaker 1: to mention settling an argument with wrastling.
2:12
Speaker 3: I was going to reference that earlier as bitter disappointment
2:15
Speaker 3: to me when I realized that I was born on
2:17
Speaker 3: February the eleventh, and if my mom had only held
2:20
Speaker 3: out one more day, I could have shared a birthday
2:22
Speaker 3: with the great Abram.
2:24
Speaker 1: Lincoln selfishness on her part because that would have been dead.
2:27
Speaker 3: I'm with Jennifer Anniston and Burt Reynolds quite a difference,
2:32
Speaker 3: and not Lincoln.
2:33
Speaker 1: Michael, speaking of Witch, I did the I should have
2:36
Speaker 1: mentioned this on the radio show. Did the Warner Brothers
2:41
Speaker 1: studio tour in Los Angeles over the weekend and sat
2:45
Speaker 1: on the Friend's couch at Central Perk and in front
2:47
Speaker 1: of the fountain and tweeted out the pictures of it.
2:50
Speaker 5: I was blown away by how many people didn't get
2:54
Speaker 5: your tweet with your photo right.
2:56
Speaker 1: Well yeah, yeah, well yeah. There are people from all
2:59
Speaker 1: over the world on that tour that were there almost
3:03
Speaker 1: entirely for the friends stuff. I mean people from all
3:07
Speaker 1: kinds of different countries, didn't speak English. The only reason
3:09
Speaker 1: they were there clearly was anything related to friends, because
3:12
Speaker 1: they they did everything that was Friends related. They bought,
3:15
Speaker 1: they took pictures next to they giggled about. It was
3:18
Speaker 1: just the Friend's thing is a worldwide phenomenon, no doubt
3:21
Speaker 1: about it. Yeah, my son was with me. It meant
3:23
Speaker 1: nothing to him. He's never said an episode of Friends.
3:25
Speaker 1: He didn't care. That's why all the stuff was they'd
3:27
Speaker 1: mentioned all kinds of shows, and this is where we
3:29
Speaker 1: shot the opening scene of Gilmour Girls and some people
3:32
Speaker 1: go ooh, and I'd go, I don't even know what
3:33
Speaker 1: that is, uh, but you know that's one of the
3:36
Speaker 1: problem with that kind of a thing.
3:38
Speaker 3: Yeah, there you are on the couch. That's a good
3:40
Speaker 3: shot down and getting down.
3:43
Speaker 1: Now exactly what that clap clop clap?
3:45
Speaker 5: Yeah, I heard the song in my head and everybody's going,
3:47
Speaker 5: what are you talking about?
3:49
Speaker 1: Right, all right, right right. I wanted to jump in
3:51
Speaker 1: the fountain and float around like Rossy. They told you
3:54
Speaker 1: you couldn't do that. Don't get in the fountain, they said.
3:56
Speaker 5: Crowned upon.
3:59
Speaker 1: Bill to Us started this thing with even lefties agreed.
4:02
Speaker 1: This is Bill Maher on Friday night. And on Friday
4:05
Speaker 1: night on HBO, things were still fresh with the whole
4:08
Speaker 1: Joe Biden's lost his marbles press conference that went awrye thing,
4:12
Speaker 1: And here's Bill Maher. I haven't heard this.
4:14
Speaker 6: Yet Biden's brain. Well, a bunch of things happened this week.
4:20
Speaker 6: First of all, he's not doing the traditional for the
4:23
Speaker 6: president to do the Super Bowl interview, and people are saying,
4:27
Speaker 6: why can't even do the super Bowl interview. It's not
4:29
Speaker 6: a toime. We're not asking him to go on Dancing
4:31
Speaker 6: with the Stars, you know. Okay, Joe is not helping
4:41
Speaker 6: his own cause. He in one week, first he mixed
4:44
Speaker 6: up French President Macron with former president Metran, who died
4:50
Speaker 6: in nineteen ninety six. Then he mixed up Angela Merkel,
4:54
Speaker 6: the former chancellor of Germany, with the late Helmet Cole,
4:57
Speaker 6: Chancellor of Germany. He said, this is all a big nothing.
5:01
Speaker 6: I just want to watch the Super Bowl and enjoy
5:03
Speaker 6: the halftime show with Toby Keith.
5:06
Speaker 1: So that's pretty good.
5:11
Speaker 3: You know.
5:12
Speaker 1: He clearly is taking the angle I was taking last week,
5:16
Speaker 1: because a lot of the pushback from the left was
5:18
Speaker 1: Trump does that too. Okay, that is a good argument
5:22
Speaker 1: if all we're discussing is should Trump or Biden be president.
5:26
Speaker 1: But if we're discussing discussing who the current president is
5:29
Speaker 1: and whether or not they're capable of having the job,
5:33
Speaker 1: then your argument doesn't make any difference whatsoever. If your
5:35
Speaker 1: argument is there are other people in the world that
5:37
Speaker 1: are also senile, that does not help our current situation.
5:42
Speaker 4: Nope.
5:43
Speaker 1: More Bill Maher.
5:44
Speaker 6: Joe Biden had a press comment it's kind of impromptu.
5:47
Speaker 6: Press comment yesterday didn't start off well. He walked in
5:50
Speaker 6: and said, why did I come in here again, and then,
5:59
Speaker 6: in the ill of explaining that he's perfectly fine and
6:02
Speaker 6: he doesn't mix things up, he mixed up who the
6:04
Speaker 6: president of Egypt is, I'll see see and said he
6:06
Speaker 6: was the president of Mexico. We knew he was old
6:13
Speaker 6: when we elected him. All right, Joe, he's like that
6:18
Speaker 6: goldfish you get at the fair. Don't get attached.
6:27
Speaker 3: In his defense, I've been to Mexico and there are
6:30
Speaker 3: pyramids in Mexico, so it's easy to get and.
6:32
Speaker 1: Camels, lots of camels. I've climbed to the top of
6:36
Speaker 1: the pyramids in Mexico. Uh, that's a camel. The crowd
6:42
Speaker 1: cackling loudly at those jokes.
6:46
Speaker 4: Yeah, I wonder.
6:49
Speaker 3: I wonder if the people who are defending Biden are
6:55
Speaker 3: they are akin to the Twitter left that runs way
6:57
Speaker 3: too much. They're a very very small group with an
7:00
Speaker 3: outsized voice. Because it's difficult to picture anybody seeing and
7:04
Speaker 3: hearing the way he's been the last six months especially,
7:07
Speaker 3: and saying anything other than wow, this is a problem.
7:12
Speaker 1: Now. The pushback is uh, the Speaker of the House
7:16
Speaker 1: set Iran when he meant Israel the other day. Okay again.
7:21
Speaker 3: Listening watching mar for a long time, and usually you
7:25
Speaker 3: know they're the groans of disapproval and come on, but.
7:29
Speaker 4: No, everybody's just laughing. Yeah, he's a senile, old bastard,
7:32
Speaker 4: isn't he.
7:34
Speaker 1: So apparently they got into the conversation of if not Joe,
7:37
Speaker 1: who and whether Gavin Newsom should be the choice.
7:39
Speaker 7: I know Newsom. Yeah, we live here, right, we live
7:43
Speaker 7: in California. In Oakland, they have Kaiser Hospital. The hospital
7:47
Speaker 7: put out notice last week employees are not to leave
7:50
Speaker 7: for lunch. It's too dangerous in downtown Oakland.
7:53
Speaker 1: That's on him.
7:54
Speaker 7: Are homeless problem. I don't want to hear that. The
7:56
Speaker 7: homeless problem is intractable. You want to be CEO. It's
7:59
Speaker 7: your problem.
8:00
Speaker 2: Hear that?
8:00
Speaker 4: Really?
8:02
Speaker 7: I guess I know you like him, but I just say, oh,
8:05
Speaker 7: I can't imagine him being having the gall to run
8:09
Speaker 7: to releave this country when he's run this state into
8:12
Speaker 7: the ground. When we just had Governor Brown, not that
8:14
Speaker 7: long ago, Oakland was safe. Things were going on. It's
8:17
Speaker 7: not good. He looks very shiny, but he's not a
8:22
Speaker 7: straight shooter, and he's not willing to do the hard
8:24
Speaker 7: things to make this state better, and that's his only job.
8:26
Speaker 7: He doesn't realize that. He thinks it's to go sing
8:29
Speaker 7: Kumbaya with a former Marvelette at New College of Florida
8:33
Speaker 7: to make some vague points. Meanwhile, back in our state,
8:37
Speaker 7: people are dying.
8:39
Speaker 4: I got to read more Caitlin Flanagan. She's smart.
8:43
Speaker 1: I do not know her, but she said there about
8:46
Speaker 1: Governor Jerry Brown. Tends to lead me to believe that
8:49
Speaker 1: she's not a Republican. So, man, that's interesting. So if
8:53
Speaker 1: Gavin Newsom he's going to get that kind of flack
8:55
Speaker 1: from Democrats in California. No way, no way he can
9:01
Speaker 1: be the nominee. That would be a mistake.
9:04
Speaker 3: No, it's too easy to hang him with his own record.
9:07
Speaker 3: I think he's good at deflecting it, as we've discussed,
9:10
Speaker 3: but it's just it's too much. It's just mountainous is
9:14
Speaker 3: the effects of his governorship.
9:16
Speaker 1: Man, if you take him off the table, who do
9:18
Speaker 1: you get to though, That's the argument that a lot
9:20
Speaker 1: of pundit's been saying. Look, you can talk about getting
9:23
Speaker 1: rid of Joe Biden and replacing with who how would
9:26
Speaker 1: that work? And it's almost got to be somebody that
9:28
Speaker 1: everybody agrees on. Do you think if somebody tried to
9:31
Speaker 1: make Gavin Newsom the nominee, that Kamala Harris isn't gonna
9:36
Speaker 1: fight that or vice versa, that they're all just going
9:40
Speaker 1: to fall in line behind somebody. Not a chance.
9:43
Speaker 3: Well no, no, But at the same time with Gavy,
9:47
Speaker 3: Gavy has crappy policies, but his brain works. Biden has
9:52
Speaker 3: crappy policies and his brain doesn't work. So yeah, I
9:56
Speaker 3: think Gavy would be an upgrade.
9:59
Speaker 1: Right the process again, what's the process? There is no process.
10:03
Speaker 4: He has to I was actually just reading about this.
10:05
Speaker 3: It's a completely one hundred percent certain that, barring a
10:10
Speaker 3: twenty invocation of the twenty fifth Amendment, Biden has to
10:13
Speaker 3: willingly step aside.
10:14
Speaker 4: Otherwise there's no way to do it.
10:17
Speaker 1: And the only way we think that would happen is
10:19
Speaker 1: if his wife came to him. He's not going to
10:20
Speaker 1: come to that conclusion on his own. It would seem
10:22
Speaker 1: based on Thursday's press conference.
10:24
Speaker 3: Well, and if for some reason, I keep reading the
10:27
Speaker 3: doctor Jill not a real doctor, thinks he should run again.
10:33
Speaker 1: Wow, So she's out of her mind too.
10:36
Speaker 4: That's easy apparently.
10:37
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, that's evil. Yeah, this will lend so badly.
10:41
Speaker 3: I mean, because he will crack up. There's little no doubt.
10:46
Speaker 3: I still don't think he makes it through this term,
10:48
Speaker 3: but so he will either have to resign next term
10:52
Speaker 3: or there will be some horrific crack up where he
10:55
Speaker 3: is forced to resign, and that's going to be his legacy.
10:58
Speaker 3: The same guy who said, look, I'm just a bridge
11:00
Speaker 3: to the future of the Democratic Party, now he wants
11:02
Speaker 3: to be the future won't end Well.
11:06
Speaker 1: Well, Katie, you use the word evil. I don't know
11:09
Speaker 1: if that's the right word, but it's close to right.
11:10
Speaker 1: I mean, if if my parents or spouse or whoever
11:14
Speaker 1: in that situation mentally, and I'm pushing them out, yeah,
11:19
Speaker 1: out onto the stage for mockery. That's exactly where my
11:23
Speaker 1: brain went.
11:23
Speaker 5: I pictured my dad and there's no way, there's no way,
11:27
Speaker 5: with the way that he's presenting himself now that he
11:29
Speaker 5: should be pushed to go any further.
11:33
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's not the kind, loving thing to do. I'm
11:36
Speaker 1: gonna set you up for mockery, historic mockery.
11:40
Speaker 3: It's an interesting discussion. At what point does negligence pass
11:46
Speaker 3: like a well, a point where it becomes moral bankruptcy.
11:52
Speaker 3: I mean it's not just oh I didn't think of that.
11:55
Speaker 3: I mean, once you pass a certain level of negligence, you're.
12:00
Speaker 4: Evil. As Katie put it, of.
12:02
Speaker 1: Course easier said than done. To be perfectly fair, you
12:04
Speaker 1: canna have that conversation with your dad, or I'm gonna
12:06
Speaker 1: have this conversation with an imaginary spouse that would stay
12:08
Speaker 1: with me who's old, And I'm gonna sit them down
12:12
Speaker 1: and say, I know you want to be head of
12:15
Speaker 1: the Rotary Club and do the big function, but you can't.
12:19
Speaker 1: How that's not an easy conversation to have. You're gonna
12:24
Speaker 1: embarrass yourself and people are gonna laugh at you. Oh yeah,
12:30
Speaker 1: so right, Easier said than done.
12:32
Speaker 3: Well yeah, but you gotta do it. I mean, being
12:36
Speaker 3: laughed at at the Rotary Club is different than courting
12:39
Speaker 3: nuclear holocaust.
12:41
Speaker 1: You set up some elaborate scheme where they think they're
12:47
Speaker 1: president and you walk them into various rooms and people
12:49
Speaker 1: stand up and play hell to the chief and you
12:51
Speaker 1: just you live out thisusse until they finally die of
12:54
Speaker 1: old age.
12:55
Speaker 3: You spent too much time on those sitcom sets. That's
13:00
Speaker 3: a decent movie plot, though. Yeah, we've got to convince
13:05
Speaker 3: him that he's still president. Shouldn't I be making a
13:09
Speaker 3: campaign speech? Oh sir, we took care of that for you.
13:13
Speaker 3: We have your surrogates all over the country.
13:15
Speaker 1: I heard somebody talking about stepping down as president and
13:18
Speaker 1: why he may have originally thought he was going to
13:21
Speaker 1: be a one termer, but they said, you don't walk
13:26
Speaker 1: out of a room or step off Marine one or
13:29
Speaker 1: ever everywhere you go and there's some marine there saluting
13:34
Speaker 1: you as you walk out the door or in the door,
13:36
Speaker 1: and like, willingly give that up? I mean, it's it's
13:39
Speaker 1: just the way it affects your brain and the way
13:43
Speaker 1: you look at yourself in the world, And it's like
13:46
Speaker 1: the most You're the king of the world thing that
13:50
Speaker 1: could ever happen to anybody who walks away from that.
13:52
Speaker 1: Guess Michael.
13:53
Speaker 3: Plus, he's always telling those stories that makes him seem
13:56
Speaker 3: tougher than he actually is.
13:58
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's got that whole thing right.
14:00
Speaker 4: So finally he has somebody saluting them.
14:02
Speaker 2: You know.
14:03
Speaker 3: Plus, Michael, when you're president, you can call down to
14:05
Speaker 3: the kitchen anytime and whip up whatever you're thinking of.
14:08
Speaker 4: Am I wrong? That's the best part. Oh yeah, all
14:11
Speaker 4: the ice creamy can eat.
14:14
Speaker 1: I would have to go to the White House kitchen
14:18
Speaker 1: and say, look, I'm telling you this, like at eleven
14:24
Speaker 1: o'clock on a Tuesday morning. I'm gonna write it down.
14:27
Speaker 1: I want you to sign it this and then get
14:28
Speaker 1: a notary. Republic. When I order something at one am,
14:31
Speaker 1: don't make it like tonight. I'm gonna call you and
14:35
Speaker 1: I'm gonna say, look, I'm the president, dammit. I said
14:38
Speaker 1: I want a chocolate peanut butter and milkshake. You get
14:40
Speaker 1: it here at your job. I won't fire you. I
14:43
Speaker 1: promise it's in writing right here. Anything I order between
14:46
Speaker 1: the hours of like six pm and three am, ignore me.
14:52
Speaker 1: That's what i'd have to do.
14:54
Speaker 3: Yeah, let's see the president again. You know those little
14:57
Speaker 3: pigs and blankets with the little smokies. Yeah, I don't
15:04
