Latest / Profits & Politics / ChatGPT rejects Trump's quote from the UN
Transcript
- 0:15SPEAKER_01: Hey everybody, welcome to the morning call show.
- 0:18SPEAKER_01: I'm Bob Sellers here with Jerry Brooke, a couple guys trying to take a look and making sense at the news so you don't have to.
- 0:26SPEAKER_01: And as we say, Jerry, trying to find the right and wrong in between the right and left.
- 0:30SPEAKER_01: So what do you have today?
- 0:32SPEAKER_00: I have a story that uh riffs on that kind of theme.
- 0:36SPEAKER_00: I started reading the story last night, and uh it says uh there's a politician who wants to end the practice of drugstores locking everything up in cases by yeah.
- 0:56SPEAKER_00: Uh and another one, another one, another politician called for shoplifting to be legalized.
- 1:06SPEAKER_00: So, but then as I was reading.
- 1:08SPEAKER_01: Those are two different ends.
- 1:09SPEAKER_01: I think those are different ends of a spectrum because anybody who lives in New York City, you go into a drugstore and you want to buy something, at least 80% of the stuff, you got to find somebody that works there to go open it up so you can get it.
- 1:26SPEAKER_01: When I was commuting up to New York from DC, I would just wait until I got back home in Virginia to go to the drugstore because it was ridiculous.
- 1:36SPEAKER_01: Now, the idea of just allowing uh shoplifting is insane, uh, but I like the idea of unlocking them.
- 1:44SPEAKER_01: However, then we've got to address the issue of shoplifting.
- 1:49SPEAKER_00: Right, right.
- 1:50SPEAKER_00: I was confused because when I started reading the story, I said the one who wants to unlock everything must be a Democrat.
- 1:58SPEAKER_00: You know, it's she's a Republican, yeah.
- 2:01SPEAKER_00: Uh, and she's calling herself a sensible Republican that wants common sense brought back and just leave the products on the shelf.
- 2:09SPEAKER_01: Yeah, I mean, actually, the way you would end that is by prosecuting shoplifting, right?
- 2:16SPEAKER_01: Yeah, because they're trying to prevent it because they don't have a good history.
- 2:21SPEAKER_01: Uh uh put it this way they're trying to prevent shoplifting by locking everything up.
- 2:27SPEAKER_01: Because I don't think they trust that the system will work enough to prosecute enough people to dissuade others from taking something.
- 2:36SPEAKER_00: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 2:37SPEAKER_00: Um so then uh, you know, there's a it's a busy week in New York, as a matter of fact.
- 2:43SPEAKER_00: Yeah, the Donald was there yesterday.
- 2:46SPEAKER_00: He had a busy day.
- 2:47SPEAKER_00: He had met with Mayor Mamdani, who I didn't think really they were gonna be relatable.
- 2:54SPEAKER_00: Um, but he really took the UN uh to the woodshed, you know, told them to get their act in order and all that, which they're never gonna do.
- 3:02SPEAKER_00: You know, I had I had a boss at Fox News who told me one time, because I went to dip in on a speech at the UN, he called me up and goes, get that crap off the air.
- 3:13SPEAKER_00: He said the UN should be bulldozed into the East River.
- 3:17SPEAKER_01: Yeah, now let's give people a little bit of a background on that.
- 3:21SPEAKER_01: The creation of the UN after World War II was a positive-spirited effort to try to make the world get along.
- 3:33SPEAKER_01: Okay.
- 3:35SPEAKER_01: And over the years, from our experience and watching what is it has become, it's the place to go to complain against the United States.
- 3:46SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 3:46SPEAKER_01: Right?
- 3:47SPEAKER_01: And that's what whoever you're referring to uh was upset because you and I have seen that, that it's the place that you go to launch your claims against the United States, and we're supposed to fund most of it.
- 4:01SPEAKER_01: And of course, it's uh right in Manhattan, and every year at this time, as you know, it's hard to get anywhere in the city because of all the traffic.
- 4:10SPEAKER_00: Well, I guess I was on a slow learning curve there because I was in my late 30s and I still had this warm, fuzzy feeling about the UN.
- 4:18SPEAKER_00: Like, you know, it's a small world after all, you know.
- 4:23SPEAKER_00: And the fact that they were filled as this guy was saying, with you know, evil people that want to ruin the United States, that was an eye-opener, you know.
- 4:31SPEAKER_01: Well, yeah, and I learned it and covering it and uh looking at what was happening there.
- 4:36SPEAKER_01: Now, having said that, Jerry, I want to give you an experience I had in uh preparing for this show.
- 4:45SPEAKER_01: And that is, I wanted I I thought what Trump said yesterday was inappropriate.
- 4:50SPEAKER_01: He basically said he was uh thinking about destroying Iran, which I don't think Annihilate them.
- 4:57SPEAKER_01: Annihilate them.
- 4:58SPEAKER_01: And let me show you what happened because I went on, I went to find the quote from Trump and what he said.
- 5:07SPEAKER_01: And and I put it in the chat GPT and I said, Can you make a graphic of this?
- 5:11SPEAKER_01: Because I was gonna put it up here.
- 5:13SPEAKER_01: Here's what happened.
- 5:15SPEAKER_01: Look at my instruction.
- 5:17SPEAKER_01: It says, this is my instruction.
- 5:19SPEAKER_01: Can you put this in a presentable graphic, please?
- 5:22SPEAKER_01: And there's the quote from Trump.
- 5:24SPEAKER_01: I have a big decision to make.
- 5:26SPEAKER_01: Uh, will a deal be made with Iran that lets them rebuild and create a far greater country than it ever was before, maybe one of the greatest in the Middle East or even the world?
- 5:35SPEAKER_01: Or do I annihilate the Islamic Republic and do it quickly?
- 5:38SPEAKER_01: Never giving them a chance to kill and destroy people and countries again.
- 5:41SPEAKER_01: Do I drive them into hell with no chance of survival and no hope of future greatness?
- 5:48SPEAKER_01: Okay.
- 5:48SPEAKER_01: All right.
- 5:49SPEAKER_01: Well, let me show you what happened from Chat GPT.
- 5:54SPEAKER_01: We're sorry, but the prompt may violate our guardrails around harassment, discrimination, bullying, or similar prohibited content.
- 6:02SPEAKER_01: Oh, oh, wow.
- 6:03SPEAKER_01: If you think we got it wrong, please retry or edit your prompt.
- 6:08SPEAKER_00: Now that's a direct quote from the president of the United States.
- 6:12SPEAKER_01: Exactly, which makes it kind of interesting.
- 6:16SPEAKER_01: Um so I went further and said that's a quote from Trump, and I wanted to compare it to what the UN stands for.
- 6:24SPEAKER_01: Now, you and I just discussed UN is not necessarily what it stands for.
- 6:29SPEAKER_01: However, you would think the leader of it, such as the United States, would not be issuing that because it violates the quote, uh, violates the UN Charter in a number of places, but here's one Article 2, uh, paragraph 4 is members must refrain from the threat or use of force against the territorial integrity or political independence of any state.
- 6:52SPEAKER_01: Now, I will point out Russia has done so, and we know things have gone on around the world, um, but we don't expect that from the U.S.
- 7:02SPEAKER_01: That's why when he speaks at that venue, you don't really expect that to come from a president of the United States.
- 7:09SPEAKER_00: Well, you know that Yasser Arafat addressed the UN with a an ivory-handled revolver on his hip.
- 7:16SPEAKER_00: And then Khrushchev back in the 60s was banging his shoe on the podium saying, We will bury you.
- 7:24SPEAKER_00: Remember that?
- 7:25SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 7:26SPEAKER_00: So it's it's been done.
- 7:28SPEAKER_01: Well, yeah, but not by the United States.
- 7:30SPEAKER_01: I think we can fairly conclude it's never been done by the United States.
- 7:35SPEAKER_01: I mean, I went through and it it actually the charter, I was reading it the charter today, at least part of it, and it was talking about how the reason we need this is to ensure uh that we don't have a situation like we did after two world wars and that we were trying to ensure peace.
- 7:52SPEAKER_01: I mean, if to the victor goes the spoils, we would own Europe right now.
- 7:59SPEAKER_01: We would own everything the US would.
- 8:02SPEAKER_01: So we went at it with a completely different approach than someone like Trump might.
- 8:07SPEAKER_01: Now I'm speculating there.
- 8:09SPEAKER_01: But when he gets up and does this, this is clearly against the spirit of the creation of the charter of the UN.
- 8:15SPEAKER_01: But you and I both know that that spirit's been compromised by others there.
- 8:20SPEAKER_01: And it is a venue in which people go after the United States with their complaints, and we readily.
- 8:25SPEAKER_00: Right, right.
- 8:25SPEAKER_00: Well, can you imagine?
- 8:26SPEAKER_00: I mean, that's what's great about this country, you know, is that if you were Rip Van Winkle and went to sleep 75 years ago and are just waking up, you'd be rubbing the sleep from your eyes and you'd be like, What?
- 8:38SPEAKER_00: We're friends with Germany and we're friends with Japan?
- 8:42SPEAKER_01: Well, I think that speaks highly of us.
- 8:44SPEAKER_01: They're actually two of our biggest allies, right?
- 8:47SPEAKER_01: And it shows you, it shows you if you offer a hand, maybe that works.
- 8:52SPEAKER_01: Maybe trying to dominate people doesn't work.
- 8:55SPEAKER_01: I mean, I'm proud of our country responding that way.
- 8:58SPEAKER_01: And it actually allowed us to become a moral leader in the world and an economic one as well.
- 9:06SPEAKER_01: And it's where it's part of what attracted that in capitalism, everybody going to the US to pursue the American dream.
- 9:13SPEAKER_00: Right.
- 9:14SPEAKER_00: Including a lot of illegal immigrants.
- 9:16SPEAKER_00: I got another story here.
- 9:18SPEAKER_00: Uh you know, speaking of Trump's visit to the city, yeah, I want to.
- 9:23SPEAKER_00: This is how the media works sometimes, you know, they're they're tricky little hoodlums.
- 9:28SPEAKER_00: Um so he's he's coming out of Gracie Mansion, where Mayor Mom Donnie is, and they're going, they're gonna walk down to a podium, but every microphone is aimed at them and every camera's aimed at them, and they're talking, but no one can hear them.
- 9:44SPEAKER_00: So this media outlet, the Daily Mail of all things, they they came out, they hired a lip reader, and the lip reader, I don't even know how they do this, but the lip reader was transcribing the conversation between Mom Donnie and Trump.
- 10:04SPEAKER_00: And Mom Donnie asked, Do you like coffee?
- 10:09SPEAKER_00: And like, of all the things you want to talk about, you know, with all the problems in the world.
- 10:14SPEAKER_00: Um, and this is where the Daily Mail caught Donald Trump in a fib, apparently.
- 10:22SPEAKER_00: They uh he turned to Mom Dani and he said, Well, yes, I do.
- 10:26SPEAKER_00: I love a cup of coffee.
- 10:29SPEAKER_00: And the Daily Mail says, That's not true.
- 10:33SPEAKER_00: The only thing he drink he likes caffeine, but he only drinks it in Diet Coke form.
- 10:38SPEAKER_00: And he even has a red button, he has a red button on his desk to get a get another one.
- 10:44SPEAKER_00: Yeah, but I mean, this is the length that it goes to.
- 10:52SPEAKER_00: Well, yeah, I uh I actually did a little sidebar research on that, and he he doesn't have any access to buttons that would do any, that launch anything.
- 11:03SPEAKER_01: It has the guy with the code and he's got the guy with the briefcase.
- 11:07SPEAKER_00: With the football, yeah.
- 11:09SPEAKER_01: But I do think that there are probably other steps um for approval of launching it where it would go through the military.
- 11:17SPEAKER_01: He is the commander-in-chief, but if they felt it was a violation of their oath to the Constitution, uh it may not happen.
- 11:24SPEAKER_00: As a matter of fact, if an officer believes that the the order is illegal, he's not obligated to carry it through.
- 11:32SPEAKER_00: Right.
- 11:33SPEAKER_00: Right.
- 11:33SPEAKER_00: Um, and this is like a double key system where one guy's on one end and the other guy's on the other, so that not any one person cannot push the button.
- 11:42SPEAKER_00: But I thought that makes sense.
- 11:45SPEAKER_00: I just thought that it was um, you know, kind of crazy the way they would put that much effort and resources into going there and filming it, then hiring a lip reader to sit down and watch it and then transcribe it, you know, just to get such earth-shattering quotes as do you like coffee?
- 12:04SPEAKER_01: Well, when you first said it, also, I thought, yeah, I don't believe lip readers get everything right.
- 12:10SPEAKER_01: I believe, you know, they have some capabilities and deaf people are able to read lips.
- 12:15SPEAKER_01: I assume there are some limitations there.
- 12:17SPEAKER_01: And I don't mean any disparagement to them.
- 12:20SPEAKER_01: I just assume that some people may be harder to read than others.
- 12:24SPEAKER_00: Yeah, right?
- 12:26SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 12:27SPEAKER_00: Um, how about uh no, I won't do it.
- 12:30SPEAKER_00: Um, but uh so you know you read this.
- 12:36SPEAKER_00: You know, the midterms are coming up, and Trump has so far played a big role in this, you know.
- 12:42SPEAKER_00: He said, you know, he's even saying, I'm not on the ballot, but I am on the ballot, you know.
- 12:47SPEAKER_00: Help me, help me.
- 12:48SPEAKER_00: And a lot of the candidates that at first were, you know, looking for his endorsement, really cozying up to him.
- 12:55SPEAKER_00: Well, this is interesting.
- 12:57SPEAKER_00: Byron Donald's in Florida.
- 13:00SPEAKER_00: Byron Donald's is um he's the Florida gubernatorial candidate running for governor.
- 13:06SPEAKER_00: Right he has the headline is Byron Donald's is the latest candidate to scrub Trump from his campaign website.
- 13:16SPEAKER_01: Of all people.
- 13:17SPEAKER_01: Of all people.
- 13:18SPEAKER_00: I know, and I thought Byron and Donald were like that.
- 13:21SPEAKER_00: You know uh the article goes on to say Byron Donald has dramatically reduced Trump's presence on his campaign website, joining a growing number of Republicans who have removed photos, slogans, and references to the president.
- 13:36SPEAKER_01: Now, let me point out one thing, though.
- 13:39SPEAKER_01: If you're running for office in a congressional district, the first hoop or the first uh bar is the primary.
- 13:48SPEAKER_01: Now, who's stronger in a Republican primary than Trump?
- 13:53SPEAKER_01: It's an exception where you would run against Trump in the Republican primary.
- 13:59SPEAKER_01: So maybe it shouldn't be strange that as they try to broaden their appeal, they're getting rid of the connection to Trump.
- 14:08SPEAKER_00: Well, that reminds me of something Bill Clinton and uh Carville once said that, you know, in the primary, you run to the base, you run to the fringe, you run to the you know, the crazies, and then in the mainstream, you run back towards the middle.
- 14:24SPEAKER_01: Yes, you know, yeah, and that's what I'm suggesting.
- 14:27SPEAKER_01: Is I think we agree that that may be what's going on here.
- 14:30SPEAKER_01: And then the media covering that reads it as if, oh, he's losing his power, maybe, but there's also, you know, that that different effort.
- 14:42SPEAKER_00: Um, so um, there's this mother, uh, in uh she wrote in the New York Times in an essay that in order to join in solidarity with uh uh black students in school, you're talking grammar school, she intentionally put her daughter in a substandard school.
- 15:06SPEAKER_00: Oh yeah, so that she could feel you know in partnership with the other black students that were there.
- 15:14SPEAKER_00: Um, instead of like looking for the better school, the best school.
- 15:18SPEAKER_00: Right.
- 15:18SPEAKER_00: But this woman, she's a particular woman, she is known as the creator of the controversial 1619 project, which she thinks everything in this country's history should be all lead back to slavery.
- 15:37SPEAKER_00: Yes, she believes it's the biggest sin in America, and she so absorbed all this um narrative that she intentionally put her daughter in a substandard school.
- 15:53SPEAKER_01: Yeah, and extending that 1619 project, as I recall it, yeah, also believes that just about everything in our country is about white superiority uh versus others that are inferior or treated as such, yeah.
- 16:13SPEAKER_01: That everything can be read that way.
- 16:16SPEAKER_01: And the fact that you and I are doing this right here would reflect our you know white privilege.
- 16:22SPEAKER_01: It's big on that kind of thing.
- 16:24SPEAKER_01: Is she white or is she African-American?
- 16:26SPEAKER_01: What do you know?
- 16:26SPEAKER_00: Uh let me see if there's a picture.
- 16:30SPEAKER_01: Because I'm wondering if you know the the concept she's pursuing doesn't depend on color.
- 16:37SPEAKER_01: And frankly, if it's a bad school with black kids, yeah, the school should improve.
- 16:43SPEAKER_01: They should try to make efforts to improve.
- 16:46SPEAKER_00: Uh no, she's a black, she's a black woman, but that's what I thought.
- 16:50SPEAKER_00: She's she uh the the name of the article is in fighting for every other black child, did I betray my own child?
- 17:00SPEAKER_01: Right, right.
- 17:02SPEAKER_01: So is she saying she shouldn't have done that?
- 17:05SPEAKER_00: Well, she says that she apparently has cheated her daughter out of a better education in pursuit of her own ideals.
- 17:13SPEAKER_01: Is she uh confessing that that was a mistake or is she saying Yeah, yeah.
- 17:18SPEAKER_00: She apolog she explicitly apologizes to her daughter for cheating her out of a better education.
- 17:25SPEAKER_01: Wow.
- 17:26SPEAKER_01: Isn't that something no question?
- 17:28SPEAKER_01: I mean, education is something that uh you want to provide your kids as as good an education as possible.
- 17:35SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 17:35SPEAKER_00: And but so, Bob, you have a couple of stories?
- 17:38SPEAKER_01: Yeah, there's one that uh a couple things I'm intrigued by.
- 17:43SPEAKER_01: Uh we've got G coming to town.
- 17:46SPEAKER_01: Um, but this is a little more interesting.
- 17:55SPEAKER_00: Oh you froze.
- 18:01SPEAKER_01: I don't know.
- 18:02SPEAKER_00: You froze at twenty-four ten.
- 18:07SPEAKER_01: Um so I am not somebody who thinks everything on the view is wrong.
- 18:13SPEAKER_01: They have a couple people on there I do like, they seem quite normal.
- 18:18SPEAKER_01: Um, I forget their names.
- 18:19SPEAKER_01: My wife watches it.
- 18:20SPEAKER_01: I I watch it occasionally, but the there's this woman, Sonny Hostin, that I think uh is always quick to play racism.
- 18:30SPEAKER_01: And I'm not saying racism doesn't exist at all.
- 18:34SPEAKER_01: But the way she looks at things and the way I look at things are not always in sync.
- 18:38SPEAKER_01: That's one of the reasons she's there.
- 18:40SPEAKER_01: However, you know, we had that recent case that we had the juror uh hold out, otherwise, that Clancy woman who killed her three children would have been found not guilty by reason of insanity.
- 18:55SPEAKER_01: Now, Sonny is uh defending that, having herself helped get someone off by reason of insanity.
- 19:05SPEAKER_01: And listen to this case.
- 19:07SPEAKER_01: I think this is about a minute long.
- 19:09SPEAKER_01: Listen to her describing and even the others around her are like, what?
- 19:14SPEAKER_03: Hold out jurors because I was a holdout juror in a case in the Daniel Rakowitz case.
- 19:18SPEAKER_03: I don't know if people remember it, the butcher of Tompkins Square Park.
- 19:21SPEAKER_03: It was in 1928, the victims.
- 19:23SPEAKER_03: Yes.
- 19:24SPEAKER_03: It was jury.
- 19:27SPEAKER_03: Yes, I was like, before I went to the motherfucker, believe me, my producer times.
- 19:56SPEAKER_03: He was psychology.
- 19:58SPEAKER_03: He was the psycho psychosis.
- 20:01SPEAKER_03: He did not mean to kill her, and once he killed her, he panned it.
- 20:04SPEAKER_03: He he tried up her body parts, yes, boiled her body parts, tried to commit the perfect crime, and then fed the how much I believe in the insanity defense, and then he fed her body parts to the house.
- 20:20SPEAKER_03: Excuse me.
- 20:28SPEAKER_00: And she's proud of that.
- 20:30SPEAKER_01: She clearly is proud of it.
- 20:33SPEAKER_01: Um I think everybody there was a little disturbed by it.
- 20:37SPEAKER_01: No, if we purely take the argument that that person was insane, how come they thought it through so clearly?
- 20:45SPEAKER_00: I know.
- 20:46SPEAKER_01: You know, and then even if I we've talked about this before.
- 20:51SPEAKER_01: I think there should be something in our law in which you are guilty but insane, not guilty by reason of insanity.
- 21:02SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 21:03SPEAKER_00: Well, also, as you say, the methodical planning, like going back to Clancy, she killed the first, strangled the first one while the other two were there, and then she went to the second one.
- 21:15SPEAKER_00: Like, at what point do you realize, like, oh, maybe I should stop?
- 21:18SPEAKER_01: You know?
- 21:19SPEAKER_01: Well, I think at the point that she tried to kill herself and it didn't work, uh, that's a pretty clear thought that you knew what you did was wrong.
- 21:27SPEAKER_01: Right, and it guilt is part of what's yeah, and insanity is you don't know what you're doing is wrong.
- 21:32SPEAKER_00: Right.
- 21:33SPEAKER_00: You're a raving lunatic running around like a werewolf, you know.
- 21:37SPEAKER_01: Or something similar.
- 21:39SPEAKER_01: Something.
- 21:40SPEAKER_00: There were a lot of extra women there on that.
- 21:42SPEAKER_00: Did they double the size of the panel?
- 21:44SPEAKER_01: No, I think I don't know who the woman was in the middle.
- 21:47SPEAKER_01: Uh, but there's Farah on the right, Whoopi on the left, son, or on the left was um the comic.
- 21:54SPEAKER_01: Uh I forget her name.
- 21:56SPEAKER_01: And then the the blonde woman who I like.
- 22:00SPEAKER_01: I I I don't remember their names, but they have a lot of interesting conversations.
- 22:05SPEAKER_01: Um, okay, G is coming to town to visit Trump.
- 22:09SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 22:10SPEAKER_01: Trump, I don't know what he's trying to get out of it.
- 22:12SPEAKER_01: He loves being with kings and emperors and and dictators and that sort of thing.
- 22:19SPEAKER_01: And you can have your own theory.
- 22:21SPEAKER_01: I certainly have mine, but I think that there is uh an interesting dynamic between the two, because China is arguably the most powerful country in the world challenging the United States on certain fronts.
- 22:39SPEAKER_01: And I I think Trump always looks for what leverage does he have on somebody.
- 22:45SPEAKER_01: And he doesn't have as much on China as he does on Greenland or Mexico or even Canada, right?
- 22:53SPEAKER_01: So here are one among the things that Xi offers uh in China are some materials, critical materials for certain things that we need.
- 23:07SPEAKER_01: And an example is for defense and technology and automobiles and aerospace.
- 23:13SPEAKER_01: There's certain components or that's a nice graphic, Bob.
- 23:17SPEAKER_01: Isn't it?
- 23:18SPEAKER_01: I I certainly didn't draw it myself.
- 23:20SPEAKER_01: You can thank my uh partner Chad.
- 23:23SPEAKER_01: Um he created that.
- 23:26SPEAKER_01: It's a little hard to read.
- 23:27SPEAKER_01: I was gonna change that, but I think it makes the point that there are a number of industries, which is why we do need to maintain a good relationship with them.
- 23:37SPEAKER_01: But I always feel like X is kind of playing with Trump a little bit.
- 23:44SPEAKER_01: I always get the feeling he's trying to feel him out and see what is Trump gonna do when I go into Taiwan, either militarily or maybe cyber attacks.
- 23:54SPEAKER_00: Yeah, that's why they're watching everything we do where we are doing in Iran.
- 23:59SPEAKER_01: Exactly.
- 24:01SPEAKER_01: So I think it'll be an interesting conversation to see the dynamics.
- 24:05SPEAKER_01: Knowing Trump, if it's somebody who has power over him, however you define that, yeah, he usually schmoozes with them.
- 24:15SPEAKER_01: Look at Mam Dani.
- 24:16SPEAKER_01: See, my theory on Mamdani, Jerry, is not that he likes uh Mam Dani's politics, it's that Mam Dani works in New York and Trump has property in New York.
- 24:28SPEAKER_00: And he can get Mam Dani will do you know Curry favor with the guy because he's the guy in charge.
- 24:34SPEAKER_01: Exactly.
- 24:35SPEAKER_01: So there are mutual beneficiaries here involved to which Trump wants to be able to call, hey, you know, I got that property up there.
- 24:44SPEAKER_01: They're trying to assess it too high.
- 24:46SPEAKER_01: Right, right.
- 24:47SPEAKER_01: You got to change that.
- 24:48SPEAKER_00: But it doesn't seem to work.
- 24:50SPEAKER_00: The Democrats haven't absorbed that lesson on how to you could easily manipulate the Donald.
- 24:56SPEAKER_01: Well, I think a lot of people are.
- 24:58SPEAKER_01: I mean, I I I think that's why you had well, first of all, I think the Democrats, let's go back, take a step further back.
- 25:08SPEAKER_01: They lost a lot of tech companies and a lot of support amongst those that had traditionally supported um the Democrats because they were like anti-business.
- 25:18SPEAKER_01: Uh when Biden had that summit of leading uh electric vehicle manufacturers, yeah, it didn't include Elon Musk.
- 25:28SPEAKER_01: I know that's crazy, and that's why Musk turned against him.
- 25:33SPEAKER_01: Think of how everything might have been different if Biden had brought him and said, Look, I don't agree with everything you're doing, but we're all in this together.
- 25:40SPEAKER_01: We're doing it.
- 25:40SPEAKER_00: Isn't that what politicians do?
- 25:42SPEAKER_00: They schmooze.
- 25:43SPEAKER_01: They're supposed to.
- 25:45SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 25:46SPEAKER_00: Well, I have one last story, but I'm not gonna read it.
- 25:50SPEAKER_00: I'll just read you the headline, okay?
- 25:53SPEAKER_00: And the scintillating details will be withheld.
- 25:56SPEAKER_02: Okay.
- 25:57SPEAKER_00: This was this was the headline this morning.
- 26:00SPEAKER_00: A lesbian bar in Massachusetts was nearly bullied out of town after lifting the mask mandate.
- 26:09SPEAKER_00: So the bar had implemented uh uh uh masks, everyone in the bar had to wear masks all week, every day, every night.
- 26:19SPEAKER_00: And the owner decided, you know what?
- 26:20SPEAKER_00: We haven't had a case of COVID in months.
- 26:23SPEAKER_00: Why don't we just say one night a week you can come in without a mask?
- 26:28SPEAKER_00: Business plummeted.
- 26:30SPEAKER_00: There were protests, angry people yelling at the bar saying you're you're trying to kill us.
- 26:38SPEAKER_01: I'm confused.
- 26:39SPEAKER_01: First of all, COVID was what, six years ago, five years ago?
- 26:43SPEAKER_00: But apparently there was ever six years.
- 26:45SPEAKER_00: There's this lesbian bar where they love wearing their masks.
- 26:49SPEAKER_00: And they kept them on over the years?
- 26:51SPEAKER_01: Yes.
- 26:52SPEAKER_00: And then when they took them off, no, they no, they would not take them off.
- 26:56SPEAKER_00: So they were boycotting the bar on the one night a week that the bar said you don't need a mask, they boycotted the bar.
- 27:04SPEAKER_01: What do you think that's about?
- 27:06SPEAKER_00: Well, I didn't dig too deeply, but um because I figured I don't want to say the wrong thing.
- 27:16SPEAKER_00: I don't want to look too closely at this one.
- 27:18SPEAKER_01: Well, let me ask you this do they like the privacy?
- 27:21SPEAKER_01: Do they are there some people there that don't necessarily want to be outed?
- 27:26SPEAKER_00: Or do they Oh, you think they're wearing it as a disguise?
- 27:29SPEAKER_00: I don't know.
- 27:31SPEAKER_00: I don't think it's the best disguise, but yeah, anyway.
- 27:36SPEAKER_00: You you how do they drink if they're wearing a mask or do other things?
- 27:43SPEAKER_01: Yeah, I d I don't know.
- 27:45SPEAKER_00: I don't want to go down this road because I'm already thinking already uncomfortable, yeah.
- 27:51SPEAKER_01: Yeah, uh but but it is an interesting story, and uh that is odd.
- 27:57SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 27:57SPEAKER_00: Well, it just shows you how demented people are these days.
- 28:00SPEAKER_00: They're people are crazy, you know.
- 28:02SPEAKER_01: You may be crazy, but there might be some sort of method to that madness.
- 28:07SPEAKER_01: Maybe it was that it was all about privacy and a place that they could go, but nobody's forcing them to go that night.
- 28:16SPEAKER_00: No, I know, but they they really like going there every night.
- 28:20SPEAKER_00: So if you're gonna keep a lesbian from doing what she wants to do, even though it's only one night a week.
- 28:28SPEAKER_00: No, you see, this is why I didn't want to.
- 28:31SPEAKER_00: I I warned you.
- 28:33SPEAKER_01: We were we knew we were flirting with trouble.
- 28:37SPEAKER_01: Yeah, I know.
- 28:38SPEAKER_01: You went the rest of the way.
- 28:39SPEAKER_00: We almost the headline was uh it was just so irresistible, you know.
- 28:43SPEAKER_00: We almost got out of it.
- 28:45SPEAKER_01: All right, okay.
- 28:46SPEAKER_00: All right, have a good day, Bob.
- 28:48SPEAKER_00: See you again.
- 28:49SPEAKER_01: Okay, take care.
- 28:50SPEAKER_00: Bye.
