- 2:37Speaker 3: Hey?
- 2:37Speaker 2: Mark? Carry you you know.
- 2:38Speaker 3: I just want to mention that Lindsey Graham.
- 2:40Speaker 2: You know I've been five decades.
- 2:42Speaker 1: Oh yeah, you're in South Carolina. He was your senator, so.
- 2:46Speaker 3: Yeah, and I got to be honest with you.
- 2:48Speaker 2: We've been trying to get rid of him for a
- 2:51Speaker 2: long long time. I mean, he gave the Democrats all
- 2:54Speaker 2: the judges they want. He said, every president needs to
- 2:57Speaker 2: have their own judges, including.
- 2:59Speaker 3: Brown and them. You know, appointing his sister really got
- 3:04Speaker 3: us upset.
- 3:04Speaker 1: Because he didn't do that well.
- 3:08Speaker 3: No, no, I mean.
- 3:11Speaker 1: He had his faults. Nobody agreed with him all. Yeah,
- 3:14Speaker 1: but he was a big help to President Trump.
- 3:17Speaker 3: Not just now he was.
- 3:19Speaker 2: And see that's what gets me Mark. Sometimes he did
- 3:22Speaker 2: the greatest things that we absolutely loved, and then he
- 3:25Speaker 2: did the greatest things that we absolutely the worst things
- 3:28Speaker 2: that we absolutely hated. The only time we ever saw
- 3:31Speaker 2: him is when he thought Jamie Harrison was going to
- 3:33Speaker 2: beat him this last election.
- 3:35Speaker 1: He was terrible politician. Even President Trump, we love him,
- 3:39Speaker 1: but sometimes he does something you wish you wouldn't do.
- 3:41Speaker 2: I mean, I know, but like I say, if you
- 3:43Speaker 2: know South Carolina politics and you've been here, it's like
- 3:46Speaker 2: Nicki Haley, you know, I mean, you and I have
- 3:48Speaker 2: the same feelings about Nicki Haley, but that woman couldn't
- 3:51Speaker 2: have elected dogcatcher.
- 3:52Speaker 1: I have no feelings about Nicki Haley, but everybody ever
- 3:55Speaker 1: worked with her, everybody tells me rotten. Yeah, scheming, lying, thieving,
- 4:01Speaker 1: rotten person they've ever worked with, everybody ever worked And.
- 4:04Speaker 2: The reason that we can't stand her here is because
- 4:07Speaker 2: of what she did in Columbia, South Carolina with the
- 4:09Speaker 2: flag many years ago. But outside of South Carolina and
- 4:13Speaker 2: outside of South Carolina politics, people don't understand what's really
- 4:17Speaker 2: going on in this state. You know, they have this
- 4:19Speaker 2: view from out of space about the politics, but they
- 4:23Speaker 2: don't know the minutia of what's actually happened here. And
- 4:27Speaker 2: that's why a lot of times we just did not
- 4:29Speaker 2: like Lindsay Grant all right.
- 4:33Speaker 1: After his funeral, go easy on him. The Stewart Thanks
- 4:35Speaker 1: for Colin. It was a big help to President Trump
- 4:38Speaker 1: advice counsel. But also not just he would you'd have
- 4:42Speaker 1: his vote, but he could run around the Senate and
- 4:44Speaker 1: get other votes. He could round up votes, not just
- 4:47Speaker 1: with Republicans but Democrats as well. President Trump will will
- 4:50Speaker 1: miss that. Let's go to Paul in White Plains. Paul,
- 4:53Speaker 1: how you doing? Mark?
- 4:55Speaker 5: How are you today? I'd like to be a self
- 4:58Speaker 5: critical liberal when it comes to COVID, because we were
- 5:01Speaker 5: so self righteous. Follow the science, Follow the science. Turns
- 5:05Speaker 5: out there wasn't much science that they were just winging it,
- 5:08Speaker 5: and the red state governor's got it right and the
- 5:10Speaker 5: blue state governors didn't. So I'd like to admit that
- 5:14Speaker 5: we were wrong.
- 5:15Speaker 1: Well that's very big any but you had to remember
- 5:16Speaker 1: Fauci posed to some sort of TV scientist. He's not.
- 5:19Speaker 1: It was never a scientist. He wasn't really a doctor.
- 5:23Speaker 1: Was a doctor, but he hadn't practiced at all. I
- 5:26Speaker 1: mean the only time he actually worked as a doctor
- 5:27Speaker 1: was fifty years ago for two weeks. He just didn't.
- 5:31Speaker 1: It was a bureaucrat, a fifty year bureaucrat. And that's
- 5:34Speaker 1: very big of you. Paul, Yeah, thank you, thanks for
- 5:38Speaker 1: thanks for calling. Let's go to Pam in New Jersey. Pam,
- 5:41Speaker 1: how you doing well?
- 5:43Speaker 5: Well yet?
- 5:44Speaker 3: This week, while they were questioning Fauci, the Republicans did
- 5:49Speaker 3: inquire as to why hydrochloroquine was not available for the
- 5:53Speaker 3: general public. I stand corrected, Yeah, okay, well.
- 5:57Speaker 1: It was in the beginning. It was the only thing
- 6:00Speaker 1: they had that could reduce symptoms, and it's a fine drug,
- 6:05Speaker 1: but there was so much demand they ran out of
- 6:07Speaker 1: it quickly. There was such a shortage and it took away.
- 6:09Speaker 1: It would take too long to just crank up a production. Hey,
- 6:13Speaker 1: when we come back. Jimmy Fayler, the great comedian talk
