More Evidence That Dems Don't Want Biden · The Wes Carroll Morning Show

The news, opinions, commentary, and interviews. You need to start your
0:05
day, and you're listening to the West Carol Morning Show. Thursday morning,
0:10
fourteenth day of September. I'm Wes. Thanks for joining me. Almost halfway
0:17
through the month of September. I was fast. You had that holiday weekend
0:23
always makes that month seem a little shorter. But we're here. We're almost
0:26
half tomorrow, we'll be halfway done. Round in the corner for Halloween.
0:33
Round in the corner. I think in the coming days, I don't talk
0:36
a lot about weather, but I will just speak to the fact that we're
0:39
expecting to get a little bit cooler temperatures coming here in the Chattowoji Valley.
0:43
I guess all over, but it's coming. Thankfully. We're going to finally
0:48
get that bit of fall autumnal air. We'll be coming in. How about
0:53
that. I didn't want to talk a little bit this morning about we get
0:57
this impeachment inquiry that's getting started, Republicans pushing this Democrat saying that this is
1:03
nothing more than a political fanfare. It's all a big show, and you
1:12
know, yeah, yeah, I think that's fair. That's certainly fair to
1:17
say. I think There's more to it than that, but that's certainly part
1:19
of it. I've talked many times about how we've gone through this process with
1:26
impeachment hearings, or at least discussions of impeachment hearings off and on. It's
1:32
it's you know, the Clinton impeachment, which you know, some had opposition
1:40
too. They didn't think it was appropriate at all to bring that impeachment forward.
1:46
With Clinton. Obviously, he was acquitted, not found guilty, not
1:53
thrown out of office, but he was impeached for conduct that some still argue
2:00
never should have fallen into the category of an impeachment. He was cheating on
2:04
his wife, That's all he was doing. Why would you impeach someone for
2:07
that? And that is the kind of conduct, of course, that,
2:13
depending on what your political affiliation is, can really draw a lot of ire.
2:17
These days, we went through the whole me too movement. I assume
2:22
that that is still in progress, right We're still in the process of dealing
2:27
with me too. That whole story circulating around the Michigan State football coach certainly
2:35
ties into the whole me too movement. The woman that's connected to that whole
2:39
story, that's basically what she is right or was an expert in trying to
2:46
keep coaches and locker rooms and universities on track when it comes to their behavior
2:52
surrounding women and things. But anyway, that's good, still going on.
2:55
It's just we're kind of in the we're starting to kick back end up political
3:00
season, but we've kind of been in the off season. Some of these
3:02
things are not as hot button issues when it's not in the middle of an
3:09
election cycle and all that's getting ready to heat up. We're obviously getting there,
3:14
and we're in the primary season for Republicans and Democrats still trying to figure
3:17
out what's even going on. I don't think they have a clue really what's
3:22
going on at all. I don't, and I think I understand why they're
3:25
confused about what's going on because they, you, off, the conversations with
3:35
each other. They have discussions where they say one thing about Joe Biden and
3:38
they say other things about him when they're on camera or talking with people who
3:45
or Republicans, they just have different conversations. We'll come to that in a
3:49
second, because that actually ties into something that a host on MSNBC has recently
3:54
revealed. But as far as the impeachment goes Clinton accused of something, impeached
4:01
for something that, you know, became the entire focal point of trying to
4:05
keep someone with no evidence, no valid witnesses that could corroborate any of the
4:12
actual accusations that were made by one person. They tried to keep a Supreme
4:17
Court justice from being appointed to the court, the highest court in the land,
4:25
solely for high school aged shenanigans, right, I mean, that was
4:32
the extent of evidence of anything, was that he was acting like a high
4:36
school kid or whatever. And it didn't There was no evidence of him committing
4:40
any sort of crime, any sort of crossing any lines. However, we
4:44
had a president of the United States who was behaving that way with an intern
4:49
in the White House. Okay, shenanigans. That became much worse as time
4:58
went on and we finally got the admit Okay, yeah I did. I
5:00
didn't want to admit it out loud anything. The accusations against Kavanaugh obviously were
5:10
different than than what actually seemed to be the actual case. And that's why
5:15
I say shenanigans, because at best we had you know, like I said,
5:21
I just as just a kid, just a high school kid doing high
5:26
school kid things. At worst, the accusations could have been you know,
5:32
real, but there was no evidence for it, none, none, whatsoever
5:35
none. So you know, when there's no evidence, you have to kind
5:41
of sign on the you know, there's no proof. With the Clinton impeachment,
5:46
there was proof. There was finally an admission about things that were going
5:51
on in the Oval office during important phone calls and things. We don't have
5:55
to rehash that, but that there are people today that still think that that
5:59
never should happened. They oversimplify it, they forget there was more to it.
6:01
There was an actual victim involved, possibly multiple victims, but we know
6:06
of one victim. It was a person that was there as an intern that
6:13
was taken advantage of, okay by the President of the United States. But
6:16
some people still say that shouldn't have happened, and the roll down from that
6:20
has been you know, every president since there's been talk about impeachment, there
6:26
was discussion about it because oh, yeah, that's right, don't forget we
6:30
had George W. Bush. That the election deniers. We've forgotten. There
6:34
were election deniers during the George W. Bush post election days where they said,
6:40
oh, he didn't really win Florida that was stolen from him. So
6:46
those election deniers, by the way, never faced any trials. There was
6:48
never any indictments relating to their conversations and talk about the outcome of that election,
6:55
none whatsoever. I don't think there should have been either. But there
6:59
was discus about impeaching him. There was discussion about impeaching him as it pertained
7:04
two weapons of mass destruction and Iraq. There were all sorts of things,
7:09
all sorts of things discussed, but they didn't they didn't actually do the impeachment.
7:12
Then there was a Barack Obama, Oh my gosh, did he lie
7:15
about the birth certificate? Should he be impeached? For a number of I
7:19
don't even remember whether they were just making up stuff. I mean, even
7:23
the birth certificate was just making up something that's not even a real thing to
7:27
his mother was an American citizen. He was an American citizen. Move on,
7:30
there's nothing to see here whatsoever, nothing at all. But there was
7:34
still talk about it. It was back and forth. You're gonna throw the
7:38
word impeachment around, We're gonna throw it back, and then we know what
7:42
happened with Trump. They just sort of started making up stuff they said,
7:46
we're gonna impeach him. We're gonna do it. We're gonna run our whole
7:49
camp, some of us in Congress are going to run our campaigns around the
7:54
idea that we're gonna impeach him. And then they did it because they wanted
7:56
to embarrass him, by the way, some of the things that they impeached
8:01
him for the first time with no real evidence to back it up, or
8:05
the very things that now the impeachment inquiry is going into now with Joe Biden.
8:11
I've said this many times before. I remember I had a couple of
8:13
guests on the radio show that we're working in a couple of campaigns four years
8:22
ago, and I remember saying that, uh, you know a number of
8:26
times, you always know what the left is up to when they start accusing
8:31
the right of doing it whatever it is. If they say you're you know,
8:35
you're Russian collusion. You've got some sort of collusion going on, and
8:41
that's what they're doing. That's the evidence that they're doing it. It's not
8:45
the evidence, but that that should tell you where to look. That's where
8:48
you should start sniffing around because something's not right. So they did that.
8:54
They file the impeachment on Trump, and then right as he's on his way
8:58
out the door he's lost the election. There we're gonna peach him again.
9:01
We're gonna do it just because there's never been a president and peach twice,
9:05
and we know he might run again. We want to keep him from running,
9:07
and we're gonna take that option away from the American people. We want
9:11
to interfere with the election. So what did they did that? And of
9:18
course again we had two acquittals, and then now we're looking at this with
9:22
the current president, Joe Biden. I kind of think though that Democrats may
9:26
be down with this this inquiry. I don't know for sure. I haven't
9:31
talked to anyone who's officially down with it, but I do know there's a
9:37
growing sentiment amongst many, many, many Democrats that feel like this might be
9:41
a way to kind of push him on out the door with some sort of
9:46
cause. Which leads me to this conversation, as Joe Scarborough with MSNBC has
9:58
basically says that he and I guess he was talking with a Washington Post columnists
10:05
and he's talking about the whole conversation about whether or not it should be a
10:09
Biden Harris ticket again, and he basically says that almost every time, the
10:18
people that he talks with don't really understand why Joe Biden is running again.
10:22
They feel like he's too old, and they question whether or not he's actually
10:26
going to end up being the candidate. And he also went on to say,
10:30
and he says, when I say every discussion, I don't mean ninety
10:33
nine percent of the discussion. He says every discussion. And he says that
10:37
he talked with Al Sharpton and he said that he says he's hearing the same
10:41
sort of things. And he also said that while many Democrats and pundits and
10:50
liberal talk show hosts basically say they complain about our Republicans will say one thing
10:56
about Trump officially, like while they're being recorded on camera or in a group
11:03
of people, versus what they'll say candidly, and that they say something different
11:07
about Trump. And he basically says it's the same thing. Democrats are doing
11:11
the exact same thing, and they don't really understand why he's running. As
11:16
far as Biden goes, they don't get it. They don't understand why he's
11:20
the candidate. There are some Republicans who do feel that way about Trump.
11:24
The difference, though, of course, is that Republicans assuming that all of
11:31
these indictments that have strategically been placed out in certain dates. If you notice
11:37
the dates are now falling around strategic moments in next year's primary season as the
11:43
former president now running for a re election with a four year gap in the
11:48
middle, They're strategically placed around significant events in time that would keep him off
11:56
the campaign trail, so absent the Justice Department's interference in this election, which
12:03
is what's happening. I mean, there's that's pretty clear, especially when you
12:09
just look at the facts of what's how it's being laid out, what's being
12:13
done. So does an impeachment of Joe Biden play into the hands of Democrats
12:18
that want him gone? Without saying it out loud, does it play help
12:24
Trump? As we basically say, hey, we're going to probably have two
12:28
candidates for president that are both facing some sort of charges or have been facing
12:33
some sort of charges. How it all plays out, and this is a
12:39
kind of that weird scenario where you just don't know or the Trump indictment's going
12:43
to have an effect on him getting nominated. Are they going to help him
12:46
get nominated. Are they gonna help him get back in the White House?
12:48
Would this impeachment? Is there going to be some sort of sympathy factor that
12:56
could be played by Democrats if they say, look, they're just teaching him
13:00
for no reason whatsoever, which I think if you're just making the case that
13:05
they're doing it because Democrats did it to Trump, that very well could be
13:09
part of it. But there are some concerns about the evidence that has been
13:16
revealed in time about Biden's time as vice president, about his time as president,
13:22
things involving his son. There's certainly more evidence to impeach him right now
13:28
than there was either time with Donald Trump. More evidence. So you can't
13:35
just say that's the only reason for it, because that's not gonna hold.
13:39
That's not gonna hold at all. I mean, it's gonna play in the
13:43
political arena certainly. You know, when you get somebody like Chuck Schumer,
13:50
who yesterday or the day before, I guess, was discussing it, and
13:54
that's what he had to say about it. It was, you know,
13:56
basically just republic lookings playing politics with it. And it's hard not to say
14:03
that that has to be part of it. You would think, but there's
14:07
some actual evidence here, there's some potential crimes that or have to be really
14:13
investigated properly. That's the reason for the inquiry. Did Democrats just skip that
14:20
whole step? They just went straight to hey, I ran on the premise
14:24
that I was going to find a way to impeach Donald Trump, and then
14:26
when they did it twice, they bragged about doing it twice. Remember Nancy
14:31
Pelosi was like, we told you we were going to do it. That's
14:33
what we did. We did it. And then now, of course you
14:37
got all the district attorneys in places like I don't know, Atlanta in Fulton
14:41
County that ran under the we're gonna indict Donald Trump. That's what we're gonna
14:46
do. We want you to vote for us so that we can indict him.
14:50
I mean, that was the campaign. That's what they were doing.
14:52
That's why there's investigations into these people because what exactly is the motivation. Are
14:58
we looking for truth? Are we looking for actual justice? Are we just
15:03
looking for ways to knock out a political opponent and take away citizens rights to
15:07
vote for the candidate that they want to choose, Because that's really what interference
15:13
in an election looks like today's show brought to you by Columba State Universities Coca
15:16
Cola Space Science Center, inspiring and educating the youth and future STEM leaders and
15:24
STEM career holders that really of all ages. I mean they do it for
15:31
school age kids as school aged kids visit the Coca Cola Space Science Center,
15:35
but they also do it through their university programs where you can learn engineering,
15:39
astronomy, physics, and the careers in space and STEM fields are booming right
15:46
now, and you can learn more about maybe getting your degree on their website
15:52
CCSSC dot org. While you're there, also check out some of their upcoming
15:58
programs. They've got this incredible collaboration that they do with the Schwobe School of
16:03
Music from Columbus State University called Music under the Dome. It's unlike any concert
16:08
experience that you can get anywhere else. It's one of those things that when
16:12
you're watching it in Columbus, Georgia, you think, is this really in
16:17
Columbus, Georgia. I mean, this is a major city attraction that happens
16:22
right here in Columbus inside the planetarium at the Coca Cola Space Science Center.
16:29
And the new season of Music under the Dome. Check out upcoming dates for
16:33
the shows, and also check out when the next Astronomy Nights coming up.
16:37
Where you can get outside. Sometimes you do it at the Cocola Space Science
16:41
Center. Sometimes you get outside somewhere outside the city lights you don't on any
16:47
light interference, and you can do that as well. Upcoming Astronomy Night events
16:51
also on their website. It's CCSSC dot org. As Shan Kruzen says Charlie
16:56
Charlie Sam Sam Charlie dot org. I just remind you that it stands for
17:00
Coca Cola Space Science Center CCSSC dot org. Today's show brought to you by
17:07
Overhead Door Company of Columbus. For all of your garage door needs, commercial
17:12
or residential. Maybe you have regular maintenance that it's time for. It's always
17:18
good to get maintenance on anything that has parts that move and have electronics.
17:23
The folks at Overhead Door Company of Columbus can take care of squaring that away
17:29
for you, and while they're there, you can always ask them questions about
17:32
some of the maybe cosmetic changes you'd like to make to your garage door.
17:36
Maybe your curb appeal isn't quite what you want it to be, and you
17:40
need some repair work done to the outside door. Maybe you need a brand
17:44
new garage door completely. Maybe it's making a noise when your garage door opens
17:48
and closes. Maybe it's some sort of insulation issue that you've got with colder
17:52
or warmer weather, Sometimes that stuff gets in and it's inconvenient. Maybe you're
17:57
looking at a situation where you'd like to add a screen door to your garage
18:02
door system that you can put down and you can use your garage space as
18:07
a sort of outdoor but indoor. You know, if you'd like to work
18:10
on your own cars in there, or maybe you just want a little man
18:14
caved. You'd like to be able to open the door up and not invite
18:17
all the insects in. They can do that for you as well, and
18:19
again they do after hours calls. There's nothing worse than that thought of having
18:23
your car trapped inside your garage and your garage door won't open and you need
18:27
somebody to come help, and they do those as well. Seven oh sixty

O DC Columbus dot com. More West Carol Morning Show right after the break.
18:51
Probably not going to be a big surprise, but a new survey says
18:56
that basically, I guess to social media and texting and abbreviations, a lot
19:03
of young people don't think that good grammar matters very much anymore. The survey
19:08
found that less than twenty five percent of gen z ers use periods, commas,
19:12
and quotation marks, and they're texting and posting. The reason young people
19:18
say it takes too long. As long as their message is getting across,
19:21
the grammar doesn't really matter. An example, according to the survey, just
19:25
half of gen Z and millennials bother to differentiate between there, there, and
19:30
there. I guess I didn't have to say all three, but you know
19:33
there's three versions of it. Maybe you know. I don't know if you're
19:37
a gen Z or a millennial, maybe you don't. Twenty five percent of
19:41
those between eighteen and twenty four use capital letters correctly, and sixteen percent of
19:45
gen Z and twenty eight percent of millennials always use periods at the end of
19:48
their sentences and texts and posts, and they do use a lot of abbreviations.
19:55
The survey found that two thirds of those under thirty five regularly use abbrevia
20:00
like I k R for I know right, MP for no problem, I
20:04
M for in my opinion, LMK for letting me know, OMW for on
20:10
my way, and BC for because I had to break all this down just
20:15
in case you're not one of the people who likes to use the abbreviations I
20:18
am guilty of being. I think it's just lazy for me when I'm texting,
20:25
because I got fat thumbs to begin with, so I gotta, you
20:27
know, I gotta hit the right buttons, and eventually I just get tired.
20:30
I hate the when they do this. They sort of intuitively say what
20:34
you're trying to say in the text, and then you go back to correct
20:38
it, and then it does it again. That's what my phone does anyway.
20:41
It just goes back and repeats it again, and you're supposed to learn
20:45
that I have fat thumbs, darn it. I don't use a lot of
20:49
those abbrevia. I do use like on my way because typically that's when I'm
20:53
about to be driving and I'm trying to get moving, so I'll do OMW
20:59
before I leave. But that's about it. I don't use many of those.
21:02
I might use NP, but typically I'll just say no, no worries
21:06
or whatever, but anyway, all right. New bank Rates survey found fifty
21:11
percent of Americans playing to begin their holiday shopping before Halloween, and many have
21:17
already started. Twelve percent said they started in August. Another twelve percent said
21:19
they'll get started this month. Twenty six percent will begin making their list and
21:26
checking it twice starting in October. So the holiday shopping season is now begun
21:30
for many people. A lot of people question, like, why does the
21:32
Halloween stuff is still on the shelves when the Christmas stuff shows up. That's
21:37
why, because people some people do get started a little bit early. They
21:40
don't won't wander around the store on Christmas Eve looking for gifts. They try
21:45
to get them done a little early. And that's that's some motivation, to
21:48
get you in there early and shopping early and buying a bunch of stuff that
21:52
you don't need. I mean, that's that's part of how it works,
21:56
right. They want to get you out there and doing that shopping. I
21:59
saw this story and this is one of those things that I don't even know
22:02
if this is going to pan out, because this is something that is in
22:07
the distant future. Okay, And I realize as quickly as time goes by
22:11
it we'll be here before we know it. But I don't even know if
22:15
this is a real thing. I know it's certainly being discussed, and they
22:18
say it is. But McDonald's says the unlimited refills at McDonald's is coming to
22:23
an end. They said they're going to phase out all these self serve soft
22:27
drink stations in US locations by twenty thirty two. And they say that the
22:33
change is being done because more customers now get their food to go than eat
22:37
at McDonald's. They say, you'll still be able to get free refills.
22:41
You'll just have to ask the employee for one at the counter. Well,
22:44
that still counts as an unlimited refill, right, It's you just can't go
22:49
get it yourself. I don't know if I'm buying this. I don't know
22:55
that if in nine years this is really going to be a thing, but
22:59
I guess we'll see. It. Seems a bit ridiculous to me that we'd
23:02
go that's that's a major step backwards. I thought they were all more places,
23:04
and I know McDonald's hasn't, but more police places are going to that
23:07
freestyle machine. That's where it's at. Baby, that's where it's at.
23:11
And I gotta be honest, there's places where I won't buy a drink,
23:15
but they get the Freestyle machine. You know, I'm more likely to actually
23:19
buy a drink. So I think that actually does work as far as I'm
23:22
concerned. But anyway, it's got they got nine years to figure it out.
23:26
It seems like that's like when Jay Leno retired and he announced he was
23:30
going to retire in like, you know, eight years or whatever it was.
23:33
It just seemed a bit crazy, all right lyft has responded to requests
23:38
from regular users and added a new feature that will allow writers to choose the
23:42
gender of their driver. That seems fair. That seems right on point,
23:48
doesn't it. The initiative aimed at female and non binary riders isn't a guarantee.
23:53
Lift admits that while the majority of users or female or non binary,
23:59
only twenty three percent of their drivers are female or non binary. Company says
24:04
they're trying to make the workforce more diverse. To me, if twenty three
24:11
percent of your drivers fall into this category, you need to change that before
24:17
you allow people to make the request. It's just that doesn't seem to be
24:22
and I know it. Maybe they're they're not going to be able to guarantee,
24:23
is what they're saying. But it just seems to me like maybe you
24:26
should have that in place. You know, if if you're McDonald's and you're
24:33
not going to have as many people working behind the counter to refill the drinks,
24:36
you should have that planned out before you say we're going to get rid
24:38
of the self serve drink machines outside. But anyway, all right, finally
24:45
did yournos the pizza frozen pizzas they're say, they're bringing two of the most
24:51
divisive pizza toppings and putting them on the same frozen pizza for you. So
24:59
when you go to the freezer section, they're gonna have a pizza topped with
25:03
pineapple and pickles. Now here's the deal, though, they're not gonna be
25:10
they're gonna be on the same pizza. But half we'll have pineapple, half
25:14
we'll have pickles. They're not gonna be mixed together. I don't know if
25:18
it's like the pepperoni when they're frozen and they slide around and they always move
25:21
around when you pick it up. I don't know if that kind of thing
25:23
can happen. I guess the idea is that you had to move them,
25:26
put them in the right place. I don't know. I don't know how
25:29
this is gonna work exactly, but I do know at no point while I
25:33
buy a De Jorno's pizza that has pineapple and pickles on it, even if
25:37
it just had one or the other, that's not gonna happen. Fact,
25:41
that is not gonna If someone gave me one, i'd give it a try.
25:47
But I'm telling you I would never buy that, and I don't know
25:49
who would. I mean, there might be the occasional psycho that would do
25:53
it, but you know, it doesn't mean you're a psycho, but it
25:56
certainly doesn't help your cause. That'll do it. For this Thursday edition of
