WEBVTT

1
00:00:00.160 --> 00:00:02.560
I you know, let me say
this before we started, you know,

2
00:00:02.600 --> 00:00:12.320
getting into audio and reflection on the
presidential debate from last night. I think

3
00:00:12.400 --> 00:00:18.039
we can all agree this is going
to come down to much like the Nixon

4
00:00:18.600 --> 00:00:24.079
Kennedy debate right where you watched it, well, you know what I'm saying,

5
00:00:24.120 --> 00:00:27.480
Ross, Do you remember the circumstances
of the Nixon Kennedy debate, right,

6
00:00:27.600 --> 00:00:30.879
yeah, that was the first debate
ever in a TV and then Kennedy

7
00:00:30.879 --> 00:00:34.640
looked amazing, right, had his
makeup and he let you went to Nixon

8
00:00:34.679 --> 00:00:40.200
and he looked like a sweating right, a mess. Yeah. But if

9
00:00:40.280 --> 00:00:43.679
you remember, they pulled people who
watched it on TV and it was like,

10
00:00:43.799 --> 00:00:46.640
yeah, Kennedy won, He's such
a nice boy. But on the

11
00:00:46.759 --> 00:00:52.520
radio it wasn't even close because you
know, there you're forced to listen to

12
00:00:53.119 --> 00:00:59.039
policy stuff, and you know,
at that point people are like, now

13
00:00:59.240 --> 00:01:03.280
Nixon's obviously, Nixon's got his crap
together. That's the dude we're gonna go

14
00:01:03.320 --> 00:01:10.480
with right there. And I feel
like last night's debate was that sure if

15
00:01:10.519 --> 00:01:15.640
you watched it on TV, or
listen to it on the radio, or

16
00:01:15.640 --> 00:01:21.040
streamed it on the internet, or
watched it through clips posted on social media.

17
00:01:21.159 --> 00:01:25.319
Yeah, you're gonna think Trump on
that debate as ross. That's probably

18
00:01:25.359 --> 00:01:26.400
where you arrived at. I don't
want to put words in your mouth.

19
00:01:29.599 --> 00:01:34.480
I think Biden had the worst performance
of any candidate of any debate ever.

20
00:01:34.920 --> 00:01:37.439
Right, but where do you watch
it street? You streamed it, right

21
00:01:37.480 --> 00:01:38.719
because you stream clips. Well,
see, I was about to go to

22
00:01:38.760 --> 00:01:42.159
bed because I had to get here. I woke up at three thirty to

23
00:01:42.200 --> 00:01:44.680
get here at four so I could
put audio in the button bar so we

24
00:01:44.680 --> 00:01:47.200
could do a show, right,
du which is your usual ANIMI. And

25
00:01:47.359 --> 00:01:49.480
by the way, I'm sorry I
texted you last time. I was not

26
00:01:49.480 --> 00:01:55.239
trying to text you. I was
trying to text Trevor, who was texting

27
00:01:55.280 --> 00:01:57.560
me, and he's like, hey, you should do some social media all

28
00:01:57.599 --> 00:02:01.840
this stuff. And he laned our
process where it's more of a morning thing

29
00:02:01.959 --> 00:02:06.560
for you because you got to double
all the audio in, and he seemed

30
00:02:06.599 --> 00:02:08.360
like disappointed we weren't going full war
room, and I'm like, dude,

31
00:02:08.360 --> 00:02:12.840
this is how this is the way
that it works best. So so I'm

32
00:02:12.879 --> 00:02:15.439
sorry for texting you because I assumed
you were asleep. But now I don't

33
00:02:15.439 --> 00:02:17.199
feel so well. Yeah, because
so I we you know, we finished

34
00:02:17.240 --> 00:02:20.360
watching our show and then I'm going
to bed, so I get up early

35
00:02:20.360 --> 00:02:23.159
and do the show in the morning. Yeah, and I just checked Twitter

36
00:02:23.159 --> 00:02:27.159
really fast. And remember yesterday we
were like, every time there's an event

37
00:02:27.240 --> 00:02:29.680
like this, whether it's the State
of the Union or other you know,

38
00:02:29.719 --> 00:02:32.120
previous debates, we are always like, man, he's gonna glitch out,

39
00:02:32.159 --> 00:02:36.759
he's gonna malfunction, but that never
happens. It alway seems like they roll

40
00:02:36.800 --> 00:02:38.199
him out, and it's like,
who is this Biden? We never see

41
00:02:38.199 --> 00:02:42.439
this Biden before, and he's like
always on top of it and he's answering,

42
00:02:42.520 --> 00:02:45.599
he's like wide awake. But last
night I checked my Twitter before going

43
00:02:45.599 --> 00:02:51.280
to bed and a quick glance and
I'm like, oh, it's finally happening.

44
00:02:51.960 --> 00:02:57.240
It's fine. The glitches, the
complete just breakdown of the clone or

45
00:02:57.240 --> 00:03:00.759
the lizard person under the mask.
It is happening, and it is a

46
00:03:00.840 --> 00:03:02.919
train wreck. So I could not
go to bed. I would checking Twitter

47
00:03:02.919 --> 00:03:07.000
the old time, watching videos and
stuff and bookmarking like audio we could use

48
00:03:07.039 --> 00:03:12.159
for the show. Now do you
think that that's fair? I do?

49
00:03:12.159 --> 00:03:14.840
Do you think do you think I'm
not taking any questions, thank you.

50
00:03:15.759 --> 00:03:19.879
Well you know what, now,
I just how did you consume it?

51
00:03:19.919 --> 00:03:23.439
You consumed it both live and obviously
through audio. And again this goes back

52
00:03:23.439 --> 00:03:27.599
to my point. If you watch
it on TV, listen to it on

53
00:03:27.639 --> 00:03:30.879
the radio, streamed it on the
internet, or I guess we're one of

54
00:03:30.879 --> 00:03:36.280
the ten people in the building,
sure, you're probably gonna walk away from

55
00:03:36.280 --> 00:03:45.599
that thinking Trump one. However,
if you're in a different multiverse timeline,

56
00:03:45.680 --> 00:03:53.680
hear me out where people speak at
incredibly different speeds, words have different meanings.

57
00:03:54.840 --> 00:03:59.560
Okay, it's a good point,
Yes, cognitive expectations for people.

58
00:03:59.680 --> 00:04:03.199
Or I didn't consider the multiverse.
I mean, at this point, don't

59
00:04:03.240 --> 00:04:05.800
you realize you got to bring the
multiverse. I'm just trying to figure out

60
00:04:05.800 --> 00:04:09.879
how they're gonna spin this. So
if you're in the multiverse of nonsense,

61
00:04:09.919 --> 00:04:13.919
it could you could latest the home
run greatest debate performance ever. You know

62
00:04:13.960 --> 00:04:15.560
when they're you know, when they're
blipping around the multiverse and they go into

63
00:04:15.600 --> 00:04:21.439
that one world, it's like cartoons
with paint and stuff. Probably did well

64
00:04:21.480 --> 00:04:27.199
there. It's like a Benjamin Button
multiverse. Sure, yeah, yeah,

65
00:04:27.240 --> 00:04:30.600
yeah, yeah. Like this guy's
phenomenal. He's very young did did you

66
00:04:30.680 --> 00:04:34.000
see the Like, this is what
I actually texted to I was trying to

67
00:04:34.040 --> 00:04:39.439
text it to our boss. It
was like the the opening moment of the

68
00:04:39.480 --> 00:04:46.399
debate. He was like, it
was like he had just done a triple

69
00:04:46.920 --> 00:04:53.480
giant size line of blow off a
hooker's butt or something backstage and that faded

70
00:04:53.519 --> 00:04:58.839
within like two minutes. Man.
And you're right, they've been able.

71
00:04:59.439 --> 00:05:03.879
He's been very balanced in stuff previous
to that where you think that there's gonna

72
00:05:03.879 --> 00:05:13.120
be problems. And I really feel
like in this moment, we should be

73
00:05:13.120 --> 00:05:16.199
talking about the strategy of the Trump
campaign. For everyone who says that Trump

74
00:05:16.240 --> 00:05:20.720
doesn't have self control, you saw
it last night. I think that was

75
00:05:20.759 --> 00:05:26.439
the best performance Trump has ever done. You saw self control last night,

76
00:05:26.519 --> 00:05:32.160
because I promise you there was a
conversation had about making the point at you

77
00:05:32.199 --> 00:05:36.839
know, in you know lightly but
uh, you know in a way that

78
00:05:36.879 --> 00:05:44.319
everyone picks up on, like what
the hell is this about, Joe?

79
00:05:44.720 --> 00:05:48.199
But you can't beat on it right
because you don't want you don't want people

80
00:05:48.240 --> 00:05:53.560
to start to feel bad for your
opponent. And I think he took a

81
00:05:53.680 --> 00:05:58.160
very measured response. I would argue
the kill shot is the medicare stuff.

82
00:05:58.199 --> 00:06:01.720
Do you think that that's true.
It's got to be, because what you

83
00:06:01.800 --> 00:06:13.040
had is Trump bringing it in and
Biden proving his point. And what was

84
00:06:13.120 --> 00:06:17.920
crazy is I watched on the well, it didn't matter where you watched,

85
00:06:17.959 --> 00:06:25.240
right, you were getting the CNN
feed. So I'm watching and they immediately

86
00:06:25.279 --> 00:06:30.079
go to the CNN you know team, and the first thing that they launch

87
00:06:30.160 --> 00:06:36.680
into is Trump's a big, fat
liar man. He told whoppers the whole

88
00:06:36.879 --> 00:06:46.560
time. And they were as you
can imagine that they were. They were

89
00:06:46.839 --> 00:06:49.040
very upset, right, and it
was I thought it was going to go

90
00:06:49.120 --> 00:06:55.319
very standard. That was literally the
first thing out of the mouth of one

91
00:06:55.319 --> 00:07:00.480
of the CNN analysts. But within
minutes it went in a wildly differ direction,

92
00:07:00.519 --> 00:07:02.040
which we're going to get into this
morning. By the way, the

93
00:07:02.079 --> 00:07:05.959
medicare thing. Let's just go ahead
and start off with that bad boy,

94
00:07:06.040 --> 00:07:12.079
okay, because I think that this
is this is the one that will end

95
00:07:12.120 --> 00:07:16.199
up in ads. This is where
I think Trump's uh strategy, I you

96
00:07:16.240 --> 00:07:21.480
know, he's got is independent as
Trump is, he does have people around

97
00:07:21.560 --> 00:07:28.399
him that I promise are going over
strategy with him. You know, for

98
00:07:28.480 --> 00:07:30.959
all that he doesn't listen to anybody. I think he does when when he

99
00:07:31.000 --> 00:07:35.959
agrees with it, and he obviously
agreed with it, because it is this

100
00:07:36.279 --> 00:07:46.160
measured approach to getting into that issue
about his opponent that I think that he

101
00:07:46.199 --> 00:07:51.319
didn't overplay, but he also didn't
underplay. If I'm just analyzing this purely

102
00:07:51.360 --> 00:07:57.360
from a strategy standpoint, Okay,
all right, so let's let's revisit this.

103
00:07:57.439 --> 00:08:01.240
What's happening. They're in a situation
where they in fact pay eight point

104
00:08:01.319 --> 00:08:05.120
two percent taxes. If they just
paid twenty four twenty five percent either one

105
00:08:05.160 --> 00:08:09.560
of those numbers, they'd raised five
hundred million dollars billion dollars. I should

106
00:08:09.560 --> 00:08:13.639
say in a ten year period,
we'd be able to write wipe out his

107
00:08:13.720 --> 00:08:16.639
debt. We'd be able to help
make sure that all those things we need

108
00:08:16.680 --> 00:08:20.720
to do, childcare, elder care, making sure that we continue to suppend

109
00:08:20.000 --> 00:08:24.759
strength in our healthcare system, making
sure that we're able to make every single

110
00:08:24.800 --> 00:08:31.759
solitary person eligible for what I've been
able to do with the with the COVID,

111
00:08:31.959 --> 00:08:37.279
I just could be with dealing with
everything we have to do with Look,

112
00:08:39.080 --> 00:08:48.240
if we finally beat medicare, what
does that mean? So just to

113
00:08:48.240 --> 00:08:52.679
be clear, and I'm sure he
picked up on it because I don't know

114
00:08:52.720 --> 00:08:56.360
you have two brain cells drub together. That was the portion where they're talking

115
00:08:56.399 --> 00:09:01.919
about, you know, raising taxes
on the rich, and it then goes

116
00:09:01.960 --> 00:09:07.240
into the COVID thing and he realized
that wasn't right, and then he said,

117
00:09:07.240 --> 00:09:13.480
well, we beat medicare in what
a game of chess. I don't

118
00:09:13.480 --> 00:09:18.120
even know what that means. And
it's Trump's response to that. I think

119
00:09:18.200 --> 00:09:24.679
that back and forth is probably what
you're going to see the most of it.

120
00:09:24.799 --> 00:09:28.440
Definitely was permeating my Twitter timeline probably
more than anything else. So here's

121
00:09:28.480 --> 00:09:33.240
Trump's response. And this is what
is important in the debate. You got

122
00:09:33.240 --> 00:09:37.480
to have a strategy. You know, you get you hopefully you arm yourself

123
00:09:37.559 --> 00:09:43.039
with, you know, the points
that you want to hit, whether it's

124
00:09:43.080 --> 00:09:46.200
about your opponent or about an issue, but you still got to be able

125
00:09:46.200 --> 00:09:48.559
to deliver on it. And I
think Trump did a good job. Thank

126
00:09:48.559 --> 00:09:52.200
you, President Biden. President Trump, who he's right. He did beat

127
00:09:52.320 --> 00:09:56.679
medicare, beat it to death.
And he's destroying Medicare because all of these

128
00:09:56.720 --> 00:09:58.960
people are coming in, they're putting
them on Medicare, They're putting them on

129
00:10:00.480 --> 00:10:03.080
social Security. They're going to destroy
social security. This man is going to

130
00:10:03.080 --> 00:10:11.360
single handedly destroy social security. So
yeah, yeah, I mean it was

131
00:10:11.440 --> 00:10:18.919
an easy setup then, and at
that moment you realize he wants to get

132
00:10:18.960 --> 00:10:24.879
into this, and you have this
exchange where it was kind of the first

133
00:10:24.960 --> 00:10:30.000
volley into the cognitive stuff, and
again it's clear that they decided to take

134
00:10:30.080 --> 00:10:33.440
a light approach to them. I've
changing the way that. Now you're in

135
00:10:33.480 --> 00:10:37.879
a situation where there are forty percent
fuel people coming across the border, right,

136
00:10:37.919 --> 00:10:39.960
So I did just be clear,
this is on the border. We

137
00:10:39.039 --> 00:10:43.159
transition to the border. Now,
I've changing the way that. Now you're

138
00:10:43.159 --> 00:10:46.480
in a situation where there are forty
percent fuel people coming across the border.

139
00:10:46.600 --> 00:10:50.320
Legally, it's better than when he
left office. And I'm going to continue

140
00:10:50.320 --> 00:10:56.159
to move until we get the total
band on, the total initiative relative to

141
00:10:56.200 --> 00:11:03.399
what we're gonna do with more border
patrol and more wasn't Trump. I really

142
00:11:03.440 --> 00:11:05.000
don't know what he said at the
end of this hands I don't think he

143
00:11:05.039 --> 00:11:09.120
knows what he said either. Look, look, and I want to play

144
00:11:09.120 --> 00:11:15.039
those two cuts because arguably going in
on the medicare thing there, you'll notice

145
00:11:15.120 --> 00:11:20.120
he didn't just turn it into a
cognitive attack, right. And that's the

146
00:11:20.200 --> 00:11:22.879
thing that surprised me because I assumed
he every time, you know, the

147
00:11:24.000 --> 00:11:26.759
chin got near on that trumpets,
swing at it. And he clearly didn't.

148
00:11:28.080 --> 00:11:33.960
But it was enough to cause panic
because poor Ross has been in here

149
00:11:33.000 --> 00:11:39.279
since four o'clock Bull and Audio,
and he had lots to choose from.

150
00:11:39.320 --> 00:11:43.759
I'm telling you, I've never seen
a debate where, even from the very

151
00:11:43.840 --> 00:11:46.320
beginning, most of the time when
there's a debate, you have the spin

152
00:11:46.440 --> 00:11:50.440
people on both sides, and you
know, they could point out why their

153
00:11:50.480 --> 00:11:54.720
candidate is doing great. I've never
seen the presidential debate from the very get

154
00:11:54.799 --> 00:12:01.360
go where a huge The only person
I saw on the left saying that Biden

155
00:12:01.440 --> 00:12:05.120
was doing great was that twelve year
old what Harry Sisson Shild that works for

156
00:12:05.159 --> 00:12:07.960
the d n C. That was
the only person. Everybody else we're talking

157
00:12:07.960 --> 00:12:13.480
about, uh, Crystal Joy read
Chrystalism, the Dale, the dude,

158
00:12:13.679 --> 00:12:20.279
yeah sank from the young Turks all
saying this is a disaster. Well from

159
00:12:20.360 --> 00:12:24.120
the very beginning. Now hold on, now, maybe you're spinning what they

160
00:12:24.240 --> 00:12:26.360
said. That's probably not fair.
Let's listen to what Joy reads, I

161
00:12:26.440 --> 00:12:33.159
too was on the phone throughout much
of the debate with Obama. The world

162
00:12:33.240 --> 00:12:37.360
people with Democrats, with people all
right, hold on, what is Obama?

163
00:12:37.480 --> 00:12:43.000
World people? That's Illuminati, right
one world government sorrows. I'm just

164
00:12:43.080 --> 00:12:48.000
I inject a little conspiracy in here. I'm sorry, Balding, Joy read,

165
00:12:48.080 --> 00:12:50.480
go ahead, I too was on
the phone throughout much of the debate

166
00:12:52.399 --> 00:12:58.720
with Obama. The world, people
with Democrats, with people who are political

167
00:12:58.720 --> 00:13:03.639
operatives, with campaign operative is My
phone really never stopped buzzing throughout, and

168
00:13:03.960 --> 00:13:11.480
the universal reaction was somewhere approaching panic. The people who were texting with me

169
00:13:11.879 --> 00:13:22.519
were very concerned about President Biden seeming
extremely feeble, seeming extremely weak. If

170
00:13:22.559 --> 00:13:26.879
there was somebody who was going to
be an apologist of the somebody's and try

171
00:13:26.919 --> 00:13:31.960
to ignore it, Joy Reid would
have been one of them. That's what's

172
00:13:31.039 --> 00:13:35.840
that's what's so crazy about that.
Joy Reid would have been one of if

173
00:13:35.879 --> 00:13:37.879
she you know, she would have
been one of those people that would have

174
00:13:37.879 --> 00:13:41.799
overlooked just about anything. Let me
ask you guys a question. We got

175
00:13:41.799 --> 00:13:43.200
tons of audio we're going to get
to. We've got a few other stories,

176
00:13:43.559 --> 00:13:48.799
and of course Pete Callender will join
us at eight oh five. I

177
00:13:48.840 --> 00:13:50.519
don't know. Maybe he's gotta maybe
he thinks Biden one. I don't know.

178
00:13:52.200 --> 00:13:54.240
We'll ask Kim. But let me
ask you a question. One of

179
00:13:54.279 --> 00:13:58.759
the things that was unique about the
debate last night is it took place prior

180
00:13:58.799 --> 00:14:05.600
to the nominating conventions. Do you
think that was a mistake on the part

181
00:14:05.639 --> 00:14:09.919
of Republicans to agree or I guess
in this case the Trump campaign to agree

182
00:14:09.960 --> 00:14:16.879
to do it first because Democrats got
to test drive the car man and now

183
00:14:16.200 --> 00:14:20.600
they may go with a different model. Whereas you wait for the nomination to

184
00:14:20.679 --> 00:14:26.039
be in then you hold the debates, which is almost universally how that happens.

185
00:14:26.519 --> 00:14:31.399
Actually at the presidential level, it
is how it happens. And do

186
00:14:31.440 --> 00:14:35.559
you think this hastens some sort of
surprise up in Chicago here? Next?

187
00:14:35.759 --> 00:14:41.120
Is it not? Next month?
They're early August? Right? Do you

188
00:14:41.200 --> 00:14:43.480
think that it now? They can
go all right, well that didn't work

189
00:14:43.519 --> 00:14:48.240
out. We got to do something, and all of a sudden, Joe

190
00:14:48.279 --> 00:14:52.080
Biden wants to spend more time with
family or something. I do know it.

191
00:14:52.120 --> 00:14:56.200
I don't think that debate in September
is going to happen well, not

192
00:14:56.360 --> 00:15:01.000
with Joe. You know, they
if they roll some somebody else in there,

193
00:15:01.279 --> 00:15:03.879
maybe then you go ahead and do
it. I mean, obviously they'd

194
00:15:03.879 --> 00:15:07.919
have to renegotiate it's a different candidate, that's how these things work. But

195
00:15:07.519 --> 00:15:11.600
Trump will do it. If it's
Gavin Newsom, Trump will do it.

196
00:15:13.759 --> 00:15:18.759
So that that's the only thing,
right, I feel like there's this window.

197
00:15:18.799 --> 00:15:20.600
I don't know how the public could
react. I would assume a lot

198
00:15:20.639 --> 00:15:26.679
would reject it among the moderates,
but you know, they haven't nominated.

199
00:15:26.720 --> 00:15:33.120
They haven't officially nominated their candidate yet, so you know, I don't know

200
00:15:33.279 --> 00:15:39.360
what sort of coordinated, behind the
scenes thing they're working on. You remember

201
00:15:39.360 --> 00:15:45.799
that, you remember Hillary's guy when
she wouldn't come down to you know,

202
00:15:45.879 --> 00:15:50.679
give her Hey, I lost speech. They were on the floor while everyone's

203
00:15:50.679 --> 00:15:52.679
crying around them, figuring out what
they were going to do to get Trump.

204
00:15:54.519 --> 00:16:00.440
There's video of him being interviewed.
So anyway, eight eight eight nine

205
00:16:00.519 --> 00:16:04.360
three four seven eight seven fourth.
So much to get into coming up on

206
00:16:04.399 --> 00:16:08.639
the CaCO Day Radio program, Welcome
back. It is the CaCO Day Radio

207
00:16:08.679 --> 00:16:11.960
pro Okay, good, one of
our callers wants to get into this as

208
00:16:12.000 --> 00:16:18.559
well. So the thing that baffled
me, and there was a lot to

209
00:16:18.679 --> 00:16:23.639
choose from, really from a bow
side standpoint, is the dead soldier discussion,

210
00:16:25.919 --> 00:16:30.080
which inevitably, of course, we
got a we got to mention of

211
00:16:30.120 --> 00:16:34.480
the president's to see son. That's
not unexpected. And he didn't say he

212
00:16:34.600 --> 00:16:40.799
was in Iraq this time. So, and honestly, that's one of the

213
00:16:40.840 --> 00:16:48.360
things I don't necessarily criticize the president
for all the time unless he is not

214
00:16:48.519 --> 00:16:52.799
telling the story correctly. But didn't
he He did say it though, No,

215
00:16:52.799 --> 00:16:53.919
no, he did say it.
Okay, yeah, yeah, I'm

216
00:16:53.919 --> 00:16:57.240
saying he did say it. But
I give him more leeway on it because

217
00:16:57.240 --> 00:17:02.480
it is his son who died right
in the same way that when I see

218
00:17:02.480 --> 00:17:06.200
Mom out in the streets screaming my
baby did nothing wrong when he's on video

219
00:17:06.240 --> 00:17:10.240
pulling a gun on a cop I
usually will cut a wide berth on Mom.

220
00:17:10.279 --> 00:17:12.119
It's a little different because he is
the president, he is a politician.

221
00:17:15.039 --> 00:17:19.799
But what was so weird about the
whole thing was I think Trump missed

222
00:17:19.799 --> 00:17:26.799
an opportunity initially because Biden said that
no soldier, no soldiers died. Now

223
00:17:26.839 --> 00:17:32.200
he kind of qualified it like in
a war, and I guess technically,

224
00:17:32.240 --> 00:17:37.440
when you're evacuating from Afghanistan, where
you've said the operations over a politician like

225
00:17:37.519 --> 00:17:41.480
yeah, see, no it's over, it didn't count. And Trump didn't

226
00:17:41.519 --> 00:17:45.359
mention it. But I really thought
he should have leaned in at that moment.

227
00:17:45.880 --> 00:17:55.640
And I was actively like, what
dude, come on, and so

228
00:17:55.759 --> 00:17:59.799
yeah, I mean that was that
was That was just one of the instances.

229
00:18:00.039 --> 00:18:03.599
In fact, let me let me
hit some audio. All right,

230
00:18:03.640 --> 00:18:04.599
here we go, Oh, that's
in the purple over it. We got

231
00:18:04.599 --> 00:18:08.119
so much audio that Ross had to
like create a whole separate button bar.

232
00:18:08.920 --> 00:18:12.920
So you'll have to bear with me. Thank you for not putting stuff straight

233
00:18:14.000 --> 00:18:17.759
in black this time, because when
he puts it in black, I can't

234
00:18:17.799 --> 00:18:21.559
see what it's labeled. And he
thinks that's very amusing. All right,

235
00:18:22.359 --> 00:18:23.839
here we go. All right,
let's uh, let's play the soldier audio

236
00:18:23.880 --> 00:18:29.119
for you. I had a notion
that we were this safe country. The

237
00:18:29.160 --> 00:18:33.319
truth is, I'm the only president
this century that doesn't have any this this

238
00:18:33.440 --> 00:18:41.079
decade, any troops guying anywhere in
the world like he did. I don't

239
00:18:41.119 --> 00:18:48.079
know how you don't go all in
on that immediately talk about what transpired they're

240
00:18:48.079 --> 00:18:52.920
in Afghanistan. And by the way, that's not the only soldier killed,

241
00:18:53.279 --> 00:19:00.960
right, didn't we have didn't we
have a we had two? Was it

242
00:19:00.000 --> 00:19:06.240
two soldiers or three soldiers who were
just killed in Africa? Right? That

243
00:19:06.279 --> 00:19:10.559
whole that whole thing didn't get any
coverage. What's what's going on there where?

244
00:19:10.559 --> 00:19:15.440
We basically just you know, put
our hands what we're out. So

245
00:19:15.960 --> 00:19:21.279
yeah, I was I really wish
Trump would have leaned into that a little

246
00:19:21.319 --> 00:19:23.640
more. And uh, I will
say this, I did see that that

247
00:19:23.880 --> 00:19:29.720
was among the Daniel Dale soon in
fact check. So what was so weird

248
00:19:29.799 --> 00:19:33.559
is that dude hasn't do it been
around like he just disappeared off the face

249
00:19:33.599 --> 00:19:40.880
of the earth. In fact,
he ended up where is this? Yeah,

250
00:19:41.160 --> 00:19:44.799
he ended up literally tweeting, Hey, I'm alive after many months of

251
00:19:44.839 --> 00:19:48.680
not tweeting, you read this,
Hello, old pals. It's been a

252
00:19:48.680 --> 00:19:53.119
delightful many months of not tweeting.
Really couldn't couldn't recommend it more highly.

253
00:19:53.319 --> 00:19:57.759
But I'll be doing fact checks during
the debate. Why would you put that

254
00:19:57.839 --> 00:20:03.079
on the record and and not hope
people just didn't notice that CNN's fact checker

255
00:20:03.960 --> 00:20:10.039
just went away for the last few
months. I mean, this is the

256
00:20:10.119 --> 00:20:12.079
dude, this is the you remember
when Trump they're like everyone, they like

257
00:20:12.160 --> 00:20:18.000
created whole departments and lists to everything
that he said, adding it to the

258
00:20:18.039 --> 00:20:25.359
list and fact checking it. We
had local media here w R A L.

259
00:20:25.640 --> 00:20:27.480
I remember they put in their their
fact checker thing, and then that

260
00:20:27.519 --> 00:20:33.119
went by the wayside. That was
they put it in under McCrory and and

261
00:20:33.160 --> 00:20:37.960
then it disappeared under Cooper. To
their credit, at least they did for

262
00:20:37.000 --> 00:20:42.079
a little while. But yeah,
Daniel, like he just disappeared. The

263
00:20:42.079 --> 00:20:45.680
whole thing was weird. I don't
know. Maybe there's something, there's some

264
00:20:45.720 --> 00:20:51.039
personal thing there. I don't know, but he was he was right back

265
00:20:51.079 --> 00:20:52.839
at it. All right. Let
me grab some phone calls here, Donna,

266
00:20:52.880 --> 00:20:56.519
you're up first, go right ahead. Good morning, Jasey. You

267
00:20:56.599 --> 00:21:00.480
already played the audio. I was
going to read the que I transcribed it.

268
00:21:00.759 --> 00:21:06.759
But as an army veteran and as
a proud American, I find it

269
00:21:07.119 --> 00:21:15.440
very repugnant how easily he dismisses or
a lost soldiers. He verbalized what he

270
00:21:15.480 --> 00:21:18.559
did when those coffins were coming off
of the plane by looking at his watch.

271
00:21:19.839 --> 00:21:25.279
He just doesn't care. His son
did not die in Iraq. He

272
00:21:25.400 --> 00:21:30.359
is not a gold star father like
these poor women, these gold star moms

273
00:21:30.680 --> 00:21:36.599
imagine having necessarily listened to that.
Yeah, everywhere I heard what he said.

274
00:21:36.720 --> 00:21:37.920
Let me ask you a question,
Donna, just on that phone.

275
00:21:38.000 --> 00:21:41.279
And this is one of the reasons
I do steer clear. I don't want

276
00:21:41.319 --> 00:21:47.839
to diminish the concerns that exist out
there, not just with Joe Biden and

277
00:21:47.880 --> 00:21:52.039
his family over the burn pits and
the water issues at Le June. Right,

278
00:21:52.160 --> 00:21:57.559
I think, yeah, and I
think that those are legitimate questions,

279
00:21:57.640 --> 00:22:00.640
concerns, and I you know,
where there's smoke, there's fire, and

280
00:22:00.680 --> 00:22:06.400
I'm not trying to put a pun
there. And I think that if people

281
00:22:06.440 --> 00:22:10.440
are going to serve this country,
we owe it to them to not put

282
00:22:10.440 --> 00:22:14.880
them in unnecessary dangerous situations. Look, we're asking them to, you know,

283
00:22:15.480 --> 00:22:18.599
go into a war zone, and
I understand that. But when when

284
00:22:18.599 --> 00:22:23.079
they're back, you know, when
they're back at their whatever base they're assigned

285
00:22:23.119 --> 00:22:33.880
to, they shouldn't have to worry
about the water that they're consuming or taking

286
00:22:33.880 --> 00:22:37.880
care of. Our soldiers should be
taken every everywhere that they are taking care

287
00:22:37.920 --> 00:22:45.079
of first and foremost they are they
are our defense. They put their lives

288
00:22:45.079 --> 00:22:48.519
on the line. They should always
come first, and right, don I

289
00:22:48.559 --> 00:22:53.079
appreciate the call. I'm sorry,
I'm a weird little glitchy thing there on

290
00:22:53.200 --> 00:22:57.799
the bearing Donna. But yes,
so that was the audio Donna was going

291
00:22:57.839 --> 00:23:07.160
to get in and I uh agree. But again that's I just want you

292
00:23:07.119 --> 00:23:10.000
to explain why I kind of parse
on stuff like that. There is a

293
00:23:10.200 --> 00:23:15.039
reason for it, all right,
Uh, Jason, go right ahead,

294
00:23:15.880 --> 00:23:19.079
am I on it's Jaron. Yeah, I'm sorry, Jay, you go

295
00:23:19.160 --> 00:23:22.920
right ahead, sir. Hey,
look, they missed one of the requirements

296
00:23:22.920 --> 00:23:26.960
in the debate. They should have
gagged Donald Trump. That was what they

297
00:23:26.000 --> 00:23:30.960
missed. But Donald Trump should have
hammered away on the cognitive ission. He

298
00:23:32.000 --> 00:23:36.680
dropped the ball there. But as
far as the debate goes, we don't

299
00:23:36.720 --> 00:23:41.000
need to hurt Robert hurt tapes anymore. We've seen enough. I still want

300
00:23:41.000 --> 00:23:44.680
to hear them. I want other
people to hear them and then they give

301
00:23:44.680 --> 00:23:47.799
me the good stuff. But yeah, I I this is this is why

302
00:23:47.839 --> 00:23:51.319
I am thanks for the call there. This is why I wonder if Republicans

303
00:23:51.359 --> 00:23:56.480
made a or the Trump campaign,
because now people are emailing They're like,

304
00:23:56.519 --> 00:24:00.759
well, the States have already rendered
their nomination. That's true. And I

305
00:24:00.759 --> 00:24:04.720
don't know exactly what the process is
for the Dems, but I don't know

306
00:24:04.720 --> 00:24:10.839
what the process really is for the
Republicans, but they have they have the

307
00:24:10.920 --> 00:24:17.079
ability to make that change. In
fact, the Democrats probably more so because

308
00:24:17.119 --> 00:24:22.480
they have a slightly different system with
super delegates, and they gave the super

309
00:24:22.480 --> 00:24:27.160
delegates a lot more room to move. And remember, they did it because

310
00:24:27.880 --> 00:24:34.279
they were constantly getting kneecapped by like
Green Party and stuff. So it allows

311
00:24:34.359 --> 00:24:40.319
them, it allows them to basically
ignore and and it's funny because it actually

312
00:24:40.359 --> 00:24:47.400
creates this weird like class system right
where you have like it's almost like the

313
00:24:47.400 --> 00:24:51.160
House of Commons, House of Lords
thing. Oh well, these are the

314
00:24:51.200 --> 00:24:56.079
really important people in their opinion counts
more than yours. Okay, all right,

315
00:24:56.160 --> 00:24:59.079
but no, there's a process.
Each of the parties has a process

316
00:24:59.119 --> 00:25:03.640
because you know, what if the
candidate dies before the committee or the convention,

317
00:25:06.160 --> 00:25:11.000
what are you going to do then? And what if a candidate comes

318
00:25:11.039 --> 00:25:12.200
and says, you know what,
I don't want to do this anymore,

319
00:25:12.519 --> 00:25:17.160
and I have to think, although, you know what, I'll hold out

320
00:25:17.200 --> 00:25:21.960
because I'll admit I don't know,
and I tried to dig into dig into

321
00:25:22.000 --> 00:25:23.839
it a little last night, but
then I was watching it and I wasn't

322
00:25:23.880 --> 00:25:30.880
finding what I was looking for.
Does the candidate have to essentially acquiesce or

323
00:25:30.960 --> 00:25:34.200
can the powers that be do stuff? You know where it says, hey,

324
00:25:34.240 --> 00:25:37.880
I'm sorry, you're not the guy
anymore. And I don't know what

325
00:25:37.920 --> 00:25:44.000
the answer is, but I promise
you the power brokers do. And those

326
00:25:44.000 --> 00:25:48.319
are the conversations that Joy Reid is
talking about. Boy, I would can

327
00:25:48.359 --> 00:25:56.480
you imagine being a fly on the
wall at one of these super Donor watch

328
00:25:56.519 --> 00:26:02.119
parties or something? Oh I can't
even that must have been that must have

329
00:26:02.119 --> 00:26:07.279
been a wild set of conversations.
Let's see here. Let me get you

330
00:26:07.279 --> 00:26:11.079
one more cut of audio. We
get again if you want anything you want

331
00:26:11.079 --> 00:26:17.880
to opine on debate related feel free
eight eight eight nine three four seven eight

332
00:26:18.000 --> 00:26:21.640
seven four would love it if you, you know, had kind of a

333
00:26:21.720 --> 00:26:26.000
unique take, something we haven't heard
before. I'm always interested to hear those.

334
00:26:26.400 --> 00:26:33.960
Let's see, well, oh yeah, this, I have some questions.

335
00:26:34.079 --> 00:26:36.599
In fact, let me do this. Let's go ahead and hit the

336
00:26:36.599 --> 00:26:41.400
brake. Just looked at the clock
at six forty six. Where are the

337
00:26:41.480 --> 00:26:47.960
secret trillionaires. That's who I want. Ross. Are you secretly a trillionaire?

338
00:26:48.759 --> 00:26:51.480
And you haven't told anybody? Do
you have a Are you a trillionaire?

339
00:26:51.960 --> 00:26:53.920
It's just just between us, just
us the circle of friends here.

340
00:26:53.960 --> 00:26:59.799
Are you a trillionaire? Yeah,
he wouldn't. I don't know, man.

341
00:27:00.279 --> 00:27:03.920
We'll get into that audio and all
sorts of stuff coming up. CaCO

342
00:27:04.039 --> 00:27:10.359
Day Radio Program. Good Morning,
CaCO Day Radio Program, phone number eight

343
00:27:10.359 --> 00:27:14.640
eight eight nine three four seven eight
seven four. Let me ask you guys

344
00:27:14.720 --> 00:27:21.079
this because I'm paying attention obviously to
the candidates and what they're doing, but

345
00:27:21.119 --> 00:27:26.680
I'm also paying attention to the moderators. Did you see anything that you thought

346
00:27:26.920 --> 00:27:36.039
was overtly approaching a Candy Crowley moment
with Bash and Tapper? Ross did did

347
00:27:36.119 --> 00:27:40.559
did you see anything you thought,
well that is that was wildly inappropriate.

348
00:27:40.599 --> 00:27:44.519
I mean, I thought there was
one instance where, you know, when

349
00:27:44.559 --> 00:27:48.480
Biden was taught or when Trump was
talking, they didn't mute Biden's microphone.

350
00:27:49.240 --> 00:27:52.680
Yeah, there was a few few
moments like that, but it might have

351
00:27:52.799 --> 00:27:56.680
not been intentional, but it probably
was intentional. Well, I also don't

352
00:27:56.680 --> 00:28:00.839
think Tapper and Bash are running the
mute so now I'm talking about with them,

353
00:28:00.279 --> 00:28:03.599
you know, I'll be honest.
The only criticism I saw, and

354
00:28:03.640 --> 00:28:07.680
I had a couple of you have
emailed me on this. People thought there

355
00:28:07.759 --> 00:28:15.119
was a couple Biden froze moments where
Tapper goes, you know, because I

356
00:28:15.119 --> 00:28:18.680
don't know if you saw, if
they stopped talking before they were allotted time

357
00:28:18.599 --> 00:28:22.920
Tapper back, primarily Tapper Tapper go, you got you still have forty five

358
00:28:22.960 --> 00:28:26.720
seconds and we need an answer on
what we posed or something like that.

359
00:28:27.599 --> 00:28:33.000
And some people thought that when Biden
froze, Tapper was too quick to jump

360
00:28:33.039 --> 00:28:38.440
in and restate the question. I
maybe I was saying stuff from the Blaze

361
00:28:38.440 --> 00:28:41.200
that they said they lost feed for
like thirty seconds. Was there like a

362
00:28:41.240 --> 00:28:47.400
thirty second like blackout or was that
just on the Blaze? I know,

363
00:28:47.680 --> 00:28:52.599
I well he was here was the
thing? So I streamed it, but

364
00:28:52.720 --> 00:28:57.119
I streamed the five You're still streaming
CNN, right, But I was streaming

365
00:28:57.160 --> 00:29:03.440
it on the Fox feed that was
on YouTube, right, so rather than

366
00:29:03.480 --> 00:29:07.240
because I don't have cable, so
everything I do is stream and I guess

367
00:29:07.240 --> 00:29:10.160
technically I could have you know,
opened like the peacock app or something like

368
00:29:10.200 --> 00:29:12.319
that, but I just went to
YouTube because you got your choice of streams

369
00:29:12.359 --> 00:29:17.119
there, and I had the Fox
stream on and the thing dumped out right

370
00:29:17.160 --> 00:29:22.200
at the beginning. But then I
clicked over to NBC or ABC's feed.

371
00:29:22.200 --> 00:29:26.119
I can't remember whose it was,
and they were ready to rock. So

372
00:29:26.400 --> 00:29:32.799
I don't know who knows. Maybe
it depends where they're pulling it from.

373
00:29:33.119 --> 00:29:37.680
I guess what would be would be
the thing? So did the does the

374
00:29:37.720 --> 00:29:41.480
Blaze have access to pull? I'm
getting into technical stuff, like what you

375
00:29:41.559 --> 00:29:48.559
don't know is right to the left
of Ross there is a selector and uh.

376
00:29:48.599 --> 00:29:52.359
On the selector, there's there's a
bunch of different options and basically he

377
00:29:52.440 --> 00:29:56.160
can stream the various feeds from different
studios in the building. And UH,

378
00:29:56.200 --> 00:30:00.519
we have Fox News obviously because you
hear at the top for the hour,

379
00:30:00.559 --> 00:30:03.640
but there's there's UH, there's multiple
channels. There's the Fox where you hear

380
00:30:03.720 --> 00:30:07.759
the news. There's UH what's called
the unanchored, which generally has just live

381
00:30:07.880 --> 00:30:12.160
feeds of stuff. There's the anchored
when they're doing the coverage like last night.

382
00:30:14.920 --> 00:30:18.079
And you know, that's how we
as a media outlet pull stuff.

383
00:30:18.119 --> 00:30:22.720
I don't know how the Blaze pulls
it. So I I honestly, I

384
00:30:22.759 --> 00:30:25.240
don't even know how to answer that. All right, let's get to the

385
00:30:25.680 --> 00:30:30.920
phones. Oh look at this,
Jamal, what's up? Well ticing,

386
00:30:33.960 --> 00:30:38.839
Oh, I'm calling in m The

that has rumble, We'll tell you who's

388
00:30:44.880 --> 00:30:51.559
a contenttrator. Rumble was down for
about an hour into that debate. So,

389
00:30:51.599 --> 00:30:55.640
I mean, rumble just totally crashed. Every if you and people like

390
00:30:55.720 --> 00:30:57.839
what in the world. Literally rumble
crashed last night. Nobody didn't know what's

391
00:30:57.880 --> 00:31:03.839
going on. But the smartest thing
President Trump did. And I was screaming

392
00:31:03.880 --> 00:31:08.759
it online and I kept screaming.
I'm like, yes, they built Joe

393
00:31:08.799 --> 00:31:17.079
Biden up to be Obama on the
debate stage. Everybody starts saying, and

394
00:31:17.200 --> 00:31:21.559
President Trump stopped. Oh yeah,
you know, he's a little scenew but

super cut. We're gonna play that here

398
00:31:33.400 --> 00:31:37.240
in the next segment, so you
get to relive your joy of one week.

399
00:31:37.319 --> 00:31:42.359
You know, prior to the debate
of all of these absolutely in the

400
00:31:42.640 --> 00:31:47.960
you know, in the Democrat camp, journalist talking about how he's the greatest

401
00:31:47.960 --> 00:31:52.440
thing since sliced bread, and yeah, tune their tune changed, isn't it,

402
00:31:53.160 --> 00:31:56.920
Yes, sir. And I'm gonna
tell you Casey, I will because

403
00:31:56.000 --> 00:32:00.599
last night, of course, you
know, there's Hayes for Sheriff, Hayes

404
00:32:00.680 --> 00:32:05.160
Mi Sheriff pushdown. You got the
k c O Day Twitter channel, And

405
00:32:05.319 --> 00:32:08.599
I was when I was streaming last
night and I'm like, in the middle

406
00:32:08.640 --> 00:32:14.359
of the day, one of the
somebody wrote, Jamal calmed down, yo,

407
00:32:14.440 --> 00:32:16.000
yo, your blood pressure. You're
gonna have a heart attack. I

408
00:32:16.119 --> 00:32:21.920
was screaming and laughing so hard.
And when he started that mumbling and stuff,

409
00:32:21.960 --> 00:32:24.359
I'm like, oh my god.
Oh. They started lying saying Joe

410
00:32:24.400 --> 00:32:30.640
Biden had a cold, Like no, are they already start putting out that's

411
00:32:30.640 --> 00:32:34.440
why it sounds that's why his voice
sounds like that, and he's a little

412
00:32:34.440 --> 00:32:38.640
off. He's got a cold.
Man. They didn't say that. Nobody,

413
00:32:39.039 --> 00:32:43.079
Nobody said that. Thing was like, Oh, this is gonna be

414
00:32:43.119 --> 00:32:46.240
good. Joe Biden, the elder
Statesman, Donald Trump, He's gonna get

415
00:32:46.279 --> 00:32:51.839
on the Donald Trump skin. He
tried to get on the Donald Trump's getting

416
00:32:51.920 --> 00:32:57.000
and Donald Trump looking at as at
him in his face and Jake Tapper,

417
00:32:57.119 --> 00:32:59.599
I'm gonna tell you when did and
people did. I don't know people.

418
00:32:59.640 --> 00:33:04.359
That was just Jake Tapper did try
to pull some last night. He was

419
00:33:04.400 --> 00:33:08.359
talking about my thirty seconds real quick. Okay, last night last night,

420
00:33:08.359 --> 00:33:13.079
when Jake Tapper was talking about January
sixth, he kept letting them go back

421
00:33:13.079 --> 00:33:15.680
and forth, back and back and
forth. But when it came to the

422
00:33:15.720 --> 00:33:19.839
economy and it came to immigration,
he wouldn't allow him to go back and

423
00:33:19.839 --> 00:33:22.240
forth like that. He could.
They went back and forth about twice,

424
00:33:22.519 --> 00:33:27.319
but when it came to January sixth, they stayed on that topic for about

425
00:33:27.319 --> 00:33:31.599
five six minutes. Yeah, happy
Friday, and uh well, I guess

426
00:33:31.880 --> 00:33:37.240
probably not. If you're members of
much of the mainstream media, you're not

427
00:33:37.319 --> 00:33:43.960
having a good day because uh wowser
man. Uh we got again. We

428
00:33:44.039 --> 00:33:45.240
got a lot of audio, a
lot of phone calls to get to We're

429
00:33:45.240 --> 00:33:49.480
going to get into that. But
uh oh, and Pete calendar at eighto

430
00:33:49.640 --> 00:33:52.119
five. I don't know, maybe
Pete's like noh, Biden totally won it.

431
00:33:52.200 --> 00:33:55.839
I don't know. I'm not gonna
put words in his mouth. We'll

432
00:33:55.839 --> 00:34:00.960
get into it, but yeah,
I think what I want to get into

433
00:34:01.000 --> 00:34:06.000
with Pete though, is the is
the path forward? I think that's a

434
00:34:06.039 --> 00:34:10.440
fascinating discussion. Right, Here's what
I mean by that, Like, there

435
00:34:10.599 --> 00:34:20.480
is there is normally not a presidential
debate prior to the official nomination party nominating

436
00:34:20.519 --> 00:34:28.679
committee conventions. Okay, And I
I wonder if agreeing to the first one

437
00:34:28.760 --> 00:34:34.559
being prior to that, if in
fact that probably was an air on the

438
00:34:34.599 --> 00:34:39.280
part of the Trump campaign. And
I admittedly I don't know that I thought

439
00:34:39.320 --> 00:34:45.800
of it and until I started contemplating
it yesterday, because now you have this

440
00:34:45.920 --> 00:34:52.800
whole window of time, which is
you know, it's like a month plus

441
00:34:52.760 --> 00:34:55.480
to figure out your strategy. And
I see people on Twitter, They're like,

442
00:34:55.519 --> 00:34:59.800
they're not gonna throw this guy to
the wolves. What would make you

443
00:34:59.840 --> 00:35:07.000
th think that that they wouldn't if
it's about winning. Remember, Uh,

444
00:35:07.079 --> 00:35:13.440
it's it's the you know, it's
the it's that whole rama manual crisis,

445
00:35:13.440 --> 00:35:17.000
go to waste attitude. But it's
the version where it's hey, as long

446
00:35:17.559 --> 00:35:21.840
as it's the ends justify the means, right, are they going to throw

447
00:35:21.880 --> 00:35:22.840
them to the wolves. You could
say that's what they did last than a

448
00:35:22.880 --> 00:35:28.760
purpose? Well and and but how
does that manifest going for? I think

449
00:35:28.800 --> 00:35:32.440
it's gonna be fascinating because it's right
here in our own backyard. Joe Biden

450
00:35:32.519 --> 00:35:36.199
right now is I don't know where
he landed at two am. I'm assuming

451
00:35:36.199 --> 00:35:37.960
they wist him off, probably to
the Umstead and stuck him in his cryo

452
00:35:38.039 --> 00:35:44.519
chamber or whatever. But UH air
Force one touchdown at RDU at two am

453
00:35:44.599 --> 00:35:50.800
this morning from Atlanta, and he
has an event at the at the State

454
00:35:50.840 --> 00:35:54.800
fair Grounds later today. So I
think a lot of people are going to

455
00:35:54.840 --> 00:36:00.400
be watching the coverage of that.
How what the what's the turnout going to

456
00:36:00.480 --> 00:36:04.239
be? Let me ask you,
let me ask you this if if if

457
00:36:04.280 --> 00:36:09.039
you just watched that debate last night, you were planning on going to see

458
00:36:09.039 --> 00:36:15.360
the president and UH and and you
voted for him, do you think maybe

459
00:36:15.360 --> 00:36:17.639
you're like, you know what,
I'm just gonna I'm gonna go to Jimmy

460
00:36:17.719 --> 00:36:22.280
John's or something. I you know, maybe that'll be fascinating, But I

461
00:36:22.280 --> 00:36:28.800
mean, really, the the the
way in which if they choose to oust

462
00:36:28.880 --> 00:36:31.159
them, that they do it.
I don't think will be as restrained as

463
00:36:31.199 --> 00:36:37.679
some people are thinking, because you
saw what what what? What? The

464
00:36:37.719 --> 00:36:45.199
willingness to do things that Republicans I
think wish they could sometimes, but they

465
00:36:45.199 --> 00:36:47.599
don't have the media to go along
with it, right you know? Uh

466
00:36:47.679 --> 00:36:53.400
yeah, Let's let's let's put together
an entire Russian collusion hoax. Let's get

467
00:36:53.400 --> 00:37:00.440
intelligence officials, including literally the spouse
of one of the debate moderators, the

468
00:37:00.760 --> 00:37:02.559
one of the CNN anchors, I
should say, not the debate moderator,

469
00:37:04.079 --> 00:37:09.320
but the woman who eighty six the
Trump spokeswoman. Let's put together this thing

470
00:37:09.840 --> 00:37:15.039
saying that this Biden laptop is Russian, you know, right back to the

471
00:37:15.119 --> 00:37:22.199
Russian. Well, let's go ahead
and get rid of the ability to have

472
00:37:22.280 --> 00:37:28.440
to get sixty votes in the Senate
to confirm a judge. If you're willing

473
00:37:28.440 --> 00:37:31.079
to do all these things, I
don't think it's that far fetched. Don't

474
00:37:31.079 --> 00:37:34.079
believe me? All right, hang
on, We're gonna get your calls here

475
00:37:34.119 --> 00:37:37.960
momentarily in this segment. I do
promise, But what a difference a week

476
00:37:38.000 --> 00:37:44.920
makes? What a difference a week
makes? I'm gonna play you leading up

477
00:37:45.519 --> 00:37:51.559
to the debate a little montage and
I'll play a little montage from post debate,

478
00:37:52.480 --> 00:37:55.480
and you're gonna hear a lot of
the same voices or the same networks.

479
00:37:58.280 --> 00:38:02.400
And once you know, the single
greatest weapon that I think Democrats have

480
00:38:04.480 --> 00:38:10.400
is the media willing to carry water
for them. It's incredibly powerful choosing to

481
00:38:10.440 --> 00:38:15.840
ignore some stuff or spin other stuff. And if you lose that weapon,

482
00:38:17.079 --> 00:38:22.679
I don't know what you do,
because unlike Republicans, Democrats are very good

483
00:38:22.840 --> 00:38:28.000
at staying all on the same team. Right. That's why you know the

484
00:38:28.280 --> 00:38:31.840
the repeal Obamacarey go John McCain with
the thumbs down thing, right, you

485
00:38:31.920 --> 00:38:39.320
got to sadly, you have the
congresswoman no longer the congresswoman from where I

486
00:38:39.360 --> 00:38:44.719
grew up, and a handful of
others willing to do their own thing.

487
00:38:45.440 --> 00:38:47.119
You don't see that on the Democrats
side very much. You see a little

488
00:38:47.119 --> 00:38:51.000
of it with the squad, which
is what I think irritates them so much.

489
00:38:52.400 --> 00:38:55.239
And so the problem becomes, who
do you slot in there? Who

490
00:38:55.400 --> 00:39:01.480
isn't on record supporting all of the
really bad stuff that has people so upset,

491
00:39:01.840 --> 00:39:07.559
Who hasn't attended one of these uh
you know, screw Israel rallies,

492
00:39:07.039 --> 00:39:12.920
who hasn't said no the border it's
going great. Most anyone you would put

493
00:39:12.960 --> 00:39:17.039
in there is on record is loving
what's going on. That's a problem.

494
00:39:17.119 --> 00:39:20.880
All right, So here we go. This is this is pre debate,

495
00:39:21.039 --> 00:39:23.840
and go start your tape right now, because I'm about to tell you the

496
00:39:23.920 --> 00:39:30.079
truth and that few if you can't
handle the truth. This version of Biden

497
00:39:30.519 --> 00:39:37.679
is the best Biden ever he knows
so long as it's nine. In fact,

498
00:39:37.960 --> 00:39:40.599
I think he's better than he's ever
been. President. Biden has a

499
00:39:40.639 --> 00:39:49.320
photographic memory. His understanding and mastery
of a complicated geopolitical situation remarkable. He

500
00:39:49.480 --> 00:39:54.480
is sharp, intensely probing, and
detail oriented and focused. Jackie, you

501
00:39:54.559 --> 00:40:00.360
here, Jackie, I I just
want to be clear. In this super

502
00:40:00.360 --> 00:40:04.400
cut, obviously the person who put
it together then inserted the Biden they were

503
00:40:04.400 --> 00:40:09.159
not running it next to the statements. But the statements are statements from analysts

504
00:40:09.159 --> 00:40:13.480
within the media. Okay, just
aroun on the same page. I was

505
00:40:13.519 --> 00:40:16.440
sitting, you know, a two
feet from him across the table, and

506
00:40:16.480 --> 00:40:21.519
he was, you know, intense
to have trouble walking sometimes, Yeah,

507
00:40:21.599 --> 00:40:24.639
so did that dr He wanted gd
war. But he's totally focused. He's

508
00:40:24.719 --> 00:40:28.559
very sharp, They say he's sharpened
meetings and so on. Very lucid,

509
00:40:28.599 --> 00:40:31.400
well, very well done for him. Biden's stately, he comes with gravitas.

510
00:40:31.519 --> 00:40:36.400
There hasn't been, as far as
I know, a single claim that

511
00:40:36.559 --> 00:40:42.000
Biden made a mistake. Agism is
an issue. Americans have a rich history

512
00:40:42.360 --> 00:40:46.039
of holding people's physical characteristics against them. Okay, you can ask African Americans

513
00:40:46.079 --> 00:40:51.239
he's older, that doesn't mean that
he is unfit. And there's a lot

514
00:40:51.239 --> 00:40:54.159
of agism there. Now, this
age attack, this obsession by the right,

515
00:40:54.280 --> 00:40:58.159
Joe Biden may not be able to
speak for himself the way that he

516
00:40:58.239 --> 00:41:00.559
used to. They want to think
to take on government if we get out

517
00:41:00.599 --> 00:41:07.480
of line, which they're talking on
again about him lying around. I think

518
00:41:07.480 --> 00:41:10.599
people should be speaking up for Joe
Biden. Americans and reporters in the media

519
00:41:10.840 --> 00:41:15.559
are just judging him by a physical
appearance, and it's fur of the unfair.

520
00:41:15.679 --> 00:41:20.079
Age is an asset. He showed
exactly how with it he is.

521
00:41:20.199 --> 00:41:23.000
The flip side of this point is
that he has a tremendous amount of wisdom

522
00:41:23.039 --> 00:41:29.280
and experience. Have you heard any
concernans from anyone who has met with President

523
00:41:29.320 --> 00:41:34.760
Biden about him seeming a little slower, no more wild speculation from a bunch

524
00:41:34.800 --> 00:41:37.920
of people who have probably never been
in a room with Joe Biden and certainly

525
00:41:37.920 --> 00:41:40.559
don't have medical degrees that I'm aware
of. You don't get paid for performance

526
00:41:40.719 --> 00:41:45.920
to be president. You don't.
The job is not a job of endurance.

527
00:41:45.159 --> 00:41:49.320
I don't see Donald Trump out by
riding like Joe Biden. It's the

528
00:41:49.440 --> 00:41:53.639
Hillary's email. All they have is
that he's on all right, so again

529
00:41:54.480 --> 00:41:58.440
going into this thing, everybody's happy, well, hold on, several of

530
00:41:58.480 --> 00:42:01.199
you have sent me this the same. They can't throw him to the side

531
00:42:01.239 --> 00:42:05.079
due to the fact that people have
voted for his nomination. Can't throw that

532
00:42:05.159 --> 00:42:08.440
aside, ignoring the will the people
proof Trump right. No, there is

533
00:42:08.480 --> 00:42:13.239
a mechanism within the party. There's
also one within the Republican Party. If

534
00:42:13.239 --> 00:42:16.559
you have a candidate who literally dies
at you know, in that interim,

535
00:42:16.719 --> 00:42:21.159
or you have a candidate who has
to maybe they have some sort of scandal,

536
00:42:21.199 --> 00:42:24.960
they got to step aside. They'll
have to probably get Biden to agree

537
00:42:24.960 --> 00:42:28.920
to it. But let me explain
it real quick, and I'm going to

538
00:42:28.960 --> 00:42:34.800
play the other half of this audio. If you have the biggest donors in

539
00:42:34.840 --> 00:42:38.039
the party, who are probably the
ones who are in those circles having these

540
00:42:38.119 --> 00:42:42.960
conversations last night, who are going
to go, look, I'm not going

541
00:42:43.000 --> 00:42:47.400
to waste my money. And you
just saw that the amount of funds that

542
00:42:47.480 --> 00:42:53.039
Trump was able to raise, Like
that's that's a stake to the heart.

543
00:42:54.239 --> 00:42:57.840
And so if you get Biden to
come out and say, look, just

544
00:42:57.920 --> 00:43:00.679
everything going on with my family,
I just need to handle this. And

545
00:43:00.800 --> 00:43:04.679
I think so and so is a
better person. He'll have to kind of

546
00:43:04.719 --> 00:43:09.360
acquiesce probably to say face and everyone
will know what's going on. And I

547
00:43:09.360 --> 00:43:12.800
think then the media would be you
know, bow, he's such a great

548
00:43:12.800 --> 00:43:15.639
guy. He wants to go care
for his family, whatever it is.

549
00:43:15.679 --> 00:43:21.760
But there is a mechanism where they
can the delegates can go ahead and entertain

550
00:43:21.800 --> 00:43:23.039
others. Then they'll have a vote. You have to have it just for

551
00:43:23.039 --> 00:43:31.239
those situations I just laid out.
All right, now, allow me to

552
00:43:31.280 --> 00:43:36.599
fast forward to uh right after the
debate last night, and let's see if

553
00:43:36.639 --> 00:43:39.440
it sounds different. See if you
can spot the differences. Okay, it's

554
00:43:39.440 --> 00:43:45.760
like that photo game, right,
all right, it's not easy Ross when

555
00:43:45.760 --> 00:43:49.960
you're dubbing this in did you constantly
get confused as to which was which when

556
00:43:49.960 --> 00:43:52.519
you were like, oh, is
that the one from pre debate or post

557
00:43:52.840 --> 00:43:55.159
I could see where it'd be difficult. Here we go. You can sure

558
00:43:55.199 --> 00:44:00.960
that we're able to make every single
solitary person eligible for what I've been able

559
00:44:00.960 --> 00:44:05.920
to do with the want to be
is a realistic of Biden. And then

560
00:44:05.920 --> 00:44:07.880
I'm gonna play the audio. So
here we go, making sure that we're

561
00:44:07.880 --> 00:44:14.480
able to make every single solitary person
very eligible for what I've been able to

562
00:44:14.519 --> 00:44:20.760
do with the UH, with the
COVID. I'ste you with dealing with everything

563
00:44:20.760 --> 00:44:28.400
we had to do with UH.
Look, if we finally beat medicare,

564
00:44:28.679 --> 00:44:32.400
we find him, we find providing
housing for Black Americans, the impact of

565
00:44:34.760 --> 00:44:40.119
the choice, the idea that they're
gonna I'm not gonna. I've been proposing

566
00:44:40.159 --> 00:44:46.480
that everybody they pay, the millionaires
pay one percent one percent, so no

567
00:44:46.559 --> 00:44:51.800
one after I've not raised the costs
of so security for anybody. Three,

568
00:44:51.920 --> 00:44:55.159
I got my handicapped, which when
I was Vice president down to a six.

569
00:44:58.320 --> 00:45:02.840
You're all the people that we just
the ability of medicare. I just

570
00:45:04.519 --> 00:45:07.400
this is this is almost like kicking
a puff. So it's painful. Let's

571
00:45:07.400 --> 00:45:13.800
go then now to the MSNBC panel
who was among those sighted in that montage,

572
00:45:13.800 --> 00:45:17.159
several of them, and see if
they got some different thoughts. Okay,

573
00:45:17.239 --> 00:45:20.599
all right, here we want to
go to our colleague Alex Wagner,

574
00:45:20.599 --> 00:45:22.079
who is on site in Atlanta.
She has been watching the debate in the

575
00:45:22.159 --> 00:45:25.440
spin room. Alex, what's the
reaction that you've been hearing there. Yes,

576
00:45:28.119 --> 00:45:31.000
I'm not going to put a fine
gene on it or or a spin

577
00:45:31.079 --> 00:45:34.480
on it, even though I'm in
the spin room, Rachel. There has

578
00:45:34.559 --> 00:45:39.199
been a uniformly negative reaction to Biden's
performance tonight. Surely, as you know,

579
00:45:39.320 --> 00:45:44.480
Joyce said, this was about revealing
who Donald Trump was, but it

580
00:45:44.519 --> 00:45:49.519
was also Joe Biden battling a caricature
of himself as an enfeebled person, an

581
00:45:49.559 --> 00:45:52.480
impression that Trump has been eager to
convey to the country, and he did

582
00:45:52.519 --> 00:45:57.920
nothing to disabuse I think the country
of the notion that he is very old

583
00:45:58.079 --> 00:46:01.639
and was lost frequently in that debate. I mean on answers that should have

584
00:46:01.679 --> 00:46:05.599
been, to put it, bluntly, a layup for him, whether it

585
00:46:05.639 --> 00:46:10.559
was abortion or the attack on abortion
medication. His answers were rambling and incoherent.

586
00:46:10.639 --> 00:46:15.920
He turned an answer, He turned
a response on abortion into a mention

587
00:46:16.119 --> 00:46:23.239
of a migrant killing. Yes,
this is MSNBC's initial reaction. Maybe CNN

588
00:46:23.320 --> 00:46:27.360
had a different take. Let's go
to John King. Shall we that?

589
00:46:27.440 --> 00:46:30.760
Right now as we speak, there
is a deep, a wide, and

590
00:46:30.840 --> 00:46:35.119
a very aggressive panic in the Democratic
Party. It started minutes into the debate

591
00:46:35.199 --> 00:46:39.079
and it continues right now. It
involves party strategists, it involves elected officials,

592
00:46:39.159 --> 00:46:44.840
it involves fundraisers, and they're having
conversations about the president's performance, which

593
00:46:44.840 --> 00:46:47.199
they think was dismal, which they
think will hurt other people down the party

594
00:46:47.239 --> 00:46:51.400
in the ticket, and they're having
conversations about what they should do about it.

595
00:46:51.679 --> 00:46:53.480
Some of those conversations include should we
go to the White House and ask

596
00:46:53.519 --> 00:46:59.679
the president's step aside? Or other
of the conversations are about should prominent Democrats

597
00:46:59.719 --> 00:47:04.920
go public with that call because they
feel this debate was so terrible. They

598
00:47:04.960 --> 00:47:07.559
do say in moments in the debate. Later the president got better and got

599
00:47:07.559 --> 00:47:10.079
his footing, but then at the
end, even his closing statement was a

600
00:47:10.079 --> 00:47:15.880
little halting. A little halting is
an understatement. So CNN, MSNBC,

601
00:47:16.000 --> 00:47:21.519
we played you Joy read earlier.
That's where the things at all. Right,

602
00:47:21.559 --> 00:47:23.719
let me grab a call. Thank
you for hanging on, George.

603
00:47:23.719 --> 00:47:25.480
I know that was a lot,
but we got a lot to get to

604
00:47:25.559 --> 00:47:30.880
go. Go right ahead, sir, Yeah, to two things real quick.

605
00:47:31.960 --> 00:47:37.039
I want to give my heartfelt condolences
to whoever had to do the closed

606
00:47:37.199 --> 00:47:42.639
captioning because that had to be a
brutal night for whoever did it. High.

607
00:47:43.159 --> 00:47:45.880
Yeah, I keep it on and
uh, I was actually amused by

608
00:47:46.239 --> 00:47:51.800
watching some of those moments, the
close captioning moments. Yeah, it was.

609
00:47:51.840 --> 00:47:54.079
It was just that had to be
a painful night for that person,

610
00:47:54.400 --> 00:48:00.519
even with AI helping them, it
had to be impossible. And my second

611
00:48:00.519 --> 00:48:04.559
point is, you know, they
they want to say that Trump lied twenty

612
00:48:04.639 --> 00:48:08.000
six times, but if I can't
find anywhere where they're listing what those twenty

613
00:48:08.039 --> 00:48:12.920
six lies work, because a lot
of times when they say that he's lying,

614
00:48:13.480 --> 00:48:16.719
is merely giving his opinion that they
disagree with, and they call it

615
00:48:16.760 --> 00:48:22.280
a lie. So I'm wondering if
you know of any place where they're lifting

616
00:48:22.320 --> 00:48:27.760
these supposed twenty six lives. CNN's
Daniel Dale, on his Twitter account,

617
00:48:27.840 --> 00:48:30.639
posted a bunch of them to his
I guess to be fair, he posted

618
00:48:30.679 --> 00:48:32.840
a bunch of Biden ones too.
Now I shouldn't say a bunch a handful

619
00:48:32.920 --> 00:48:37.599
there, And you're right, some
of them do dwell into the opinionated side,

620
00:48:37.639 --> 00:48:42.679
like when he was talking about the
NATO stuff, and you know,

621
00:48:42.719 --> 00:48:45.880
because that's just that's that's opinion,
and Biden had his opinion and Trump had

622
00:48:45.920 --> 00:48:51.679
his opinion as to whether him telling
NATO that they better get their crap together

623
00:48:51.800 --> 00:48:58.480
actually worked in our standing within the
world. I mean, that's I guess

624
00:48:58.480 --> 00:49:00.599
if you're doing the dollars, you
could that argument. But they got into

625
00:49:00.679 --> 00:49:06.480
the realm of you know, whether
the world leaders think Trump was better than

626
00:49:06.480 --> 00:49:10.000
Biden. Well, now you're just
cherry picking an opinion. So I don't

627
00:49:10.039 --> 00:49:14.280
know. But George, thanks for
thanks for the call this morning. Do

628
00:49:14.360 --> 00:49:19.400
appreciate it. Just a reminder eight
oh five, we're gonna bring Pete Calender

629
00:49:19.480 --> 00:49:22.400
into this conversation. He'll have some
thoughts and coming up here in just a

630
00:49:22.440 --> 00:49:25.199
few minutes. We got a bunch
of audio. We got to get into

631
00:49:25.719 --> 00:49:30.519
so much from the debate, including
some of the stuff we just talked about

632
00:49:30.559 --> 00:49:37.039
with NATO, the border stuff,
which was absolutely backcrap, crazy, no

633
00:49:37.159 --> 00:49:42.440
the way to describe that, and
oh so much more. Let me see,

634
00:49:43.079 --> 00:49:46.320
we've got Stormy Daniel stuff in there, golf stuff, you name it

635
00:49:46.840 --> 00:49:52.360
and we'll dive into it. Phone
number eight eight eight nine three four seven

636
00:49:52.519 --> 00:49:55.679
eight seven four. You want to
get on the show, and we'll be

637
00:49:55.800 --> 00:49:59.840
right back the debate last night.
We're gonna get into more audio. But

638
00:50:00.360 --> 00:50:05.360
I gotta tell you, Okay,
Ross the reason I was digging around my

639
00:50:05.400 --> 00:50:08.400
backpack for another adapter for my headphones
because they were just clipping on me.

640
00:50:09.320 --> 00:50:15.480
And you ever find like twenty dollars
in your pants when you're doing laundry,

641
00:50:15.559 --> 00:50:17.000
or maybe your wife does laundry.
I don't know, but you know that

642
00:50:17.000 --> 00:50:20.760
feeling. We're like, oh,
it's twenty. Not that it's your you

643
00:50:20.760 --> 00:50:24.119
know, it wasn't yours, but
it feels like it's a free twenty because

644
00:50:24.199 --> 00:50:29.039
who knows what would have happened.
It's a great feeling. Right, there's

645
00:50:29.039 --> 00:50:32.079
two bags of mini cheese. It's
from my flight vacation flight for American Airlines.

646
00:50:32.119 --> 00:50:35.559
I completely forgot about them, so
no I have cheese. It's this

647
00:50:35.639 --> 00:50:39.719
morning, and that's right, I
said cheese. It's Sue me who makes

648
00:50:39.760 --> 00:50:46.960
these. I guess I don't know
whoever, the company is Kellogg, sue

649
00:50:47.000 --> 00:50:51.280
me, Kellogg, do whatever you
want. So I'm sorry breaking news right

650
00:50:51.320 --> 00:50:57.599
in the middle of it. I
had to share. Okay, let's uh,

651
00:50:57.760 --> 00:51:01.960
let me do this. I just
want a bullet point where a few

652
00:51:02.039 --> 00:51:08.079
things are at and then we'll get
back into the audio one. It was

653
00:51:08.559 --> 00:51:16.079
that it was, and it's getting
lost in all of this Trump. I

654
00:51:16.079 --> 00:51:20.840
don't know what they told him.
I don't know what he thought up or

655
00:51:20.880 --> 00:51:22.440
somebody told him and then he said
it's his idea. I don't know.

656
00:51:23.800 --> 00:51:28.679
But whoever crafted the way that he
was going to approach it. Not the

657
00:51:28.719 --> 00:51:32.599
words, right, we can discuss
and debate and all that stuff, but

658
00:51:35.079 --> 00:51:42.679
the the I guess, the the
vibe that he chose to go with yesterday,

659
00:51:43.639 --> 00:51:45.800
and what I mean by that is
not a repeat of the first debate

660
00:51:45.840 --> 00:51:51.960
with those two from last time around, and not him in every response,

661
00:51:54.000 --> 00:51:59.920
you know, doing Joe Biden cognitive
stuff. Right, It was very measured.

662
00:52:00.159 --> 00:52:06.480
He didn't say anything for what probably
what fifteen minutes, right, fifteen

663
00:52:06.519 --> 00:52:15.559
minutes when you know, it just
became where you had to say something and

664
00:52:15.559 --> 00:52:20.280
and I think that that was that
was the right tact. You know,

665
00:52:20.320 --> 00:52:22.679
it's the it's the old art of
war thing, right, or it's an

666
00:52:22.719 --> 00:52:27.840
Napoleon thing. I'm sorry, you
know, never interrupt your enemy when he's

667
00:52:27.840 --> 00:52:37.360
making mistakes, and too often Trump
will do that, right. That's it's

668
00:52:37.400 --> 00:52:39.639
one of the things where you're just
like, dude, just shut up for

669
00:52:39.679 --> 00:52:44.760
half a second, let him explain, you know, this thing, because

670
00:52:45.480 --> 00:52:49.840
they're horrifying people with their explanation.
But not last night, man. So

671
00:52:50.039 --> 00:52:52.559
yeah, I mean you can,
you can get into him in bellishing or

672
00:52:52.559 --> 00:52:54.360
his opinion on stuff and all the
fact checks and all that. That's fine.

673
00:52:54.400 --> 00:53:00.360
But I think that his approach to
it yesterday was very good because if

674
00:53:00.400 --> 00:53:02.719
you if you beat him up on
the cognitive every time, you run the

675
00:53:02.800 --> 00:53:08.039
risk of people going of feeling bad
for him but also feeling angry at you

676
00:53:08.320 --> 00:53:13.599
for latching onto it. And he
didn't do that. If you think I'm

677
00:53:13.599 --> 00:53:16.880
wrong, go ahead and I'll ask
Pete the same thing. Two And you

678
00:53:16.960 --> 00:53:20.559
saw it in one of the audio
clips we played there, the one from

679
00:53:20.639 --> 00:53:30.880
John King. The the the money
and the down ballot races are all that

680
00:53:30.000 --> 00:53:37.800
is being discussed right now in uh, you know, powerbroker circles. If

681
00:53:38.119 --> 00:53:43.639
and frankly The person in North Carolina
who should be the most bothered by that

682
00:53:43.639 --> 00:53:49.800
that debate last night is Josh Stein
already tagged is the most important governors race

683
00:53:49.880 --> 00:53:57.679
this election cycle. That is that
that's devastating right there. You know how

684
00:53:57.679 --> 00:54:04.840
probably you get the money that flows
in, but the interest among voters may

685
00:54:04.880 --> 00:54:08.320
not be there. And that did
not do anything to aid that position.

686
00:54:08.360 --> 00:54:10.559
I would I will love it if
somebody get a mic in front of his

687
00:54:10.599 --> 00:54:15.719
face. I'm assuming he'll be at
the Biden rally or maybe not. If

688
00:54:15.719 --> 00:54:19.480
you're Josh Stein, do you show
up to that thing, or do you

689
00:54:19.519 --> 00:54:21.719
have a conflict that just came out, or do you get a cold?

690
00:54:22.199 --> 00:54:27.000
So that would be point number two, right and I and I think that

691
00:54:27.000 --> 00:54:31.599
that's that's that's I think that's a
very important part of the context and what's

692
00:54:31.679 --> 00:54:37.039
the process for for swapping this guy
out. I still think that I still

693
00:54:37.039 --> 00:54:40.480
think that the green to a debate
prior to the nominating committees was a mistake.

694
00:54:42.400 --> 00:54:45.480
And I don't know why. Several
of you have emailed me where you're

695
00:54:45.519 --> 00:54:49.519
just like, oh, they voted, I agree with you, but except

696
00:54:49.519 --> 00:54:52.000
for one guy is really angry at
me for saying this and I don't know

697
00:54:52.039 --> 00:54:58.360
why there are methods with or there
are within the rules. And and by

698
00:54:58.400 --> 00:55:02.360
the way, convention rules are are
so changeable. You've ever been to one,

699
00:55:02.400 --> 00:55:09.159
you know exactly what I'm talking about. There is a mechanism built in,

700
00:55:09.280 --> 00:55:14.800
not really for this per se,
but like a dead candidate, right

701
00:55:15.000 --> 00:55:20.000
or a candidate who withdraws, and
so they're able to do that. So

702
00:55:21.000 --> 00:55:22.519
the trick is you got to get
him to withdraw. But the other trick

703
00:55:22.559 --> 00:55:27.960
is you got to get somebody in
there. And the problem is because everyone's

704
00:55:27.960 --> 00:55:30.960
so lockstep within the party. There
the big you know, the big names,

705
00:55:30.719 --> 00:55:37.920
all of the same policies that Biden's
losing on. There's video of them

706
00:55:37.360 --> 00:55:44.400
all in on this stuff. That's
a real problem, man. And I

707
00:55:44.400 --> 00:55:47.880
think what's very telling last point and
then more audio you ready, Ross,

708
00:55:47.920 --> 00:55:52.599
did you notice what was absent from
the Twitter timeline as you were doom scrolling

709
00:55:52.639 --> 00:55:58.400
it either last night or this morning
that we normally see during debates. Did

710
00:55:58.400 --> 00:56:02.840
you see what was missing from all
of that. I didn't see any posts

711
00:56:02.920 --> 00:56:07.760
about except for like people who were
joking. I didn't see people getting into

712
00:56:07.920 --> 00:56:15.920
the into the earpiece stuff right where
they're posting photos at the exact moment his

713
00:56:16.079 --> 00:56:21.239
suit moved and I see there's a
there's a transponder in there. Right,

714
00:56:21.320 --> 00:56:23.920
we're not seeing any of that,
no, because typically we see that when

715
00:56:23.960 --> 00:56:28.079
when you know, we see him
one way uh uh, you know,

716
00:56:28.159 --> 00:56:30.239
not during the debates and not during
the stead of the union, and they

717
00:56:30.320 --> 00:56:32.280
roll him out for these events and
he's like a super guy and he can

718
00:56:32.280 --> 00:56:36.840
talk and he's go here and he
makes sense. But then right, and

719
00:56:36.880 --> 00:56:38.639
the last night, it finally happened. Right, So what I was,

720
00:56:38.639 --> 00:56:40.320
I was about to go to bed
and I'm like, I'm going to bed.

721
00:56:42.159 --> 00:56:44.320
He's not gonna malfunction. And then
all of a sudden, I see

722
00:56:44.360 --> 00:56:46.119
my Twitter timeline blow up and people
I'm like, it's finally happening. So

723
00:56:46.159 --> 00:56:50.400
people aren't saying, hey, you
know he's wired or he's a clone or

724
00:56:50.440 --> 00:56:55.679
he's a lizard person because it was
not good. Yeah, I don't know.

725
00:56:57.079 --> 00:57:00.400
That's like some sort of bell Weather
in my mind is crazy as that

726
00:57:00.519 --> 00:57:07.199
sounds. All right, let's let's
get into this. There's somebody mad at

727
00:57:07.199 --> 00:57:12.760
me over what is you know,
I bet your fun at a party.

728
00:57:12.880 --> 00:57:15.920
Some guy he just he sent me
the literally the ingredients list from cheese its

729
00:57:15.960 --> 00:57:22.119
and go enjoy your your chemicals man
and your soy I will you know what?

730
00:57:22.159 --> 00:57:23.000
I'm many eat both bags? What
do you think of that? Sir?

731
00:57:23.559 --> 00:57:27.079
And I think I might buy some
of the spicy ones because I had

732
00:57:27.079 --> 00:57:30.719
to go shopping later today because they
got no food in my house. So

733
00:57:32.360 --> 00:57:37.679
yeah, yeah, turning me off
cheese its, that's not gonna happen.

734
00:57:37.119 --> 00:57:40.960
All right, Let's get into this. Uh where is my border stuff?

735
00:57:42.159 --> 00:57:49.320
Or is I just staring at this? Okay? Oh, where there's the

736
00:57:49.360 --> 00:57:51.559
border? Oh it's in the okay, the dark. But I'm telling you

737
00:57:51.719 --> 00:57:54.039
there, I got so much crap
going on here. All right, So

738
00:57:55.320 --> 00:58:01.079
let's talk about the border and uh
more specifically a the issue that might show

739
00:58:01.119 --> 00:58:07.719
the single largest divide within the Democrat
party. So it's gonna be really important

740
00:58:08.440 --> 00:58:14.559
because they're not buying the Hey,
we're doing everything we can, which I

741
00:58:14.639 --> 00:58:17.199
actually thought that they'd come out with
maybe some concrete stuff they wanted him to

742
00:58:17.199 --> 00:58:21.039
talk about. Hey, here's what
we're doing. I was wrong. The

743
00:58:21.119 --> 00:58:24.679
only terrorists who've done anything across the
border is one who came along and killed

744
00:58:24.760 --> 00:58:31.880
three on his administration kill an no
Kada person committed and his administrations kill three

745
00:58:32.119 --> 00:58:37.480
American soldiers, kill three American soldiers. That's the only terrorist that there.

746
00:58:37.760 --> 00:58:40.159
I'm not saying a no terrorist ever
got through with the idea. They're empting

747
00:58:40.199 --> 00:58:44.760
their prisons where let were welcoming these
people. That's simply not true. There's

748
00:58:44.800 --> 00:58:47.960
no data to support what he said. Once again he's exaggerating, he's lying.

749
00:58:49.400 --> 00:58:52.519
All right, so you know,
we get we get into this conversation.

750
00:58:52.679 --> 00:58:55.519
Obviously, Trump did take it to
specific issues. He referenced the twelve

751
00:58:55.599 --> 00:59:04.519
year old girl, he referenced the
Georgia case, and he was not ambiguous

752
00:59:04.559 --> 00:59:09.880
about it. But then Biden said
something really strange for you fact checkers out

753
00:59:09.880 --> 00:59:14.519
there. I hope this peaked your
interest significant increase the number of asylum offer

754
00:59:14.800 --> 00:59:19.239
significantly. By the way, the
border patrolman endorsed me, endorsed my position.

755
00:59:20.440 --> 00:59:24.760
But yes, the guy who moved
allowed to move forward. The Haitian

756
00:59:24.840 --> 00:59:32.039
whipping incident nonsense. Even when the
photographer took the picture was like, no,

757
00:59:32.440 --> 00:59:37.239
this is not he let Mayorcis go
forward with all of that insanity.

758
00:59:37.679 --> 00:59:46.079
The border patrol agents did not endorse
you. You had homeland security like Union

759
00:59:46.119 --> 00:59:52.280
folks who did. But the border
patrol agents Union, which is its own

760
00:59:52.360 --> 00:59:55.559
thing, has endorsed Trump and they
haven't endorsed him in the past, and

761
00:59:57.119 --> 01:00:00.519
it's because the majority of agents realize
what's going going on down there and the

762
01:00:00.639 --> 01:00:06.840
level of disrespect that's shown when you
know you're trying to hang him over that

763
01:00:06.840 --> 01:00:10.679
that those still framed photos of what
is a traditional way that you ride a

764
01:00:10.760 --> 01:00:16.119
horse with split reins, they didn't
endorse you, and it was they almost

765
01:00:16.119 --> 01:00:22.159
immediately came out and said that's that's
not true. So he really didn't do

766
01:00:22.159 --> 01:00:23.679
anything to address it. And I
kind of thought that if you're going to

767
01:00:23.719 --> 01:00:28.719
see anything leaned into, that would
have been it. And it clearly wasn't

768
01:00:29.559 --> 01:00:30.800
the rased agic or no, no, I'm sorry, it's not Ray.

769
01:00:30.800 --> 01:00:34.599
Who do we got this morning,
Jeff mar Jeff Maher is going to lean

770
01:00:34.639 --> 01:00:37.559
into spaghetti models because I see you
guys got those going, oh yeah for

771
01:00:38.079 --> 01:00:43.480
next week. They're peering all over
my news speeds. So let's talk short

772
01:00:43.599 --> 01:00:45.440
term and maybe long term what's going
on, Jeff. I'm talking about some

773
01:00:45.519 --> 01:00:49.159
hot temperatures that are going to be
out here in the afternoon hours today and

774
01:00:49.159 --> 01:00:51.440
for that matter, through the weekend. Before you get a little bit of

775
01:00:51.480 --> 01:00:53.079
relief early next week. In the
meantime, though, drive this morning,

776
01:00:53.360 --> 01:00:57.920
sunshine this afternoon to hind your ninety
four today, and then clouds will increase

777
01:00:57.960 --> 01:01:00.480
tonight. There may be an isolated
shower thutderstorm popping up this evening over night.

778
01:01:00.480 --> 01:01:04.199
A low down to seventy four tomorrow, partly to mostly cloudy, hot

779
01:01:04.239 --> 01:01:07.320
and humid, a high ninety five, the heat index into the triple digits,

780
01:01:07.320 --> 01:01:09.840
with an occasional afternoon thunderstorm. Rain
increases on Sunday ahead of a front

781
01:01:09.840 --> 01:01:13.440
with behind the mid nineties. Behind
that front, clearing and cooler Monday,

782
01:01:13.599 --> 01:01:16.280
with a high close to eighty seven
degrees. Okay, Jeff, appreciate it.

783
01:01:16.280 --> 01:01:20.440
We're talking in hour, sir.
Okay, sounds good. And uh

784
01:01:20.679 --> 01:01:22.719
the we're gonna just for we got
Pete at eight o five peak. Calendar

785
01:01:22.719 --> 01:01:27.199
will join us at eight oh five. Really, the meaty stuff or the

786
01:01:27.239 --> 01:01:30.000
stuff that people are like, I
can't wait to see how this goes down.

787
01:01:30.039 --> 01:01:35.000
A lot of it was around,
uh, Trump's felony conviction. You

788
01:01:35.039 --> 01:01:37.000
know, what what's Biden gonna do
with that? And obviously Hunter's conviction,

789
01:01:37.239 --> 01:01:42.760
what's Trump gonna do with that?
And of course you know just the standard

790
01:01:42.800 --> 01:01:45.679
talking points. I can't believe by
the way that Biden doubled down on the

791
01:01:46.000 --> 01:01:52.519
good people on both sides. But
right, you know, Snopes even like

792
01:01:52.159 --> 01:01:59.119
was like nah and and Trump,
and Biden looked like he genuinely still believed

793
01:01:59.159 --> 01:02:04.159
it. That's what was so wild
to me. But we'll get into those

794
01:02:04.400 --> 01:02:08.480
those hot button gotcha issues. We
got whole string of audio coming up Casey

795
01:02:08.519 --> 01:02:15.719
O Day radio program, and in
both the campaign website and the Twitter timeline

796
01:02:15.920 --> 01:02:22.960
of Josh Stein, I don't see
any mention of the event. So is

797
01:02:22.000 --> 01:02:25.760
he not going? Is he not
gonna go stand with the with the president?

798
01:02:29.880 --> 01:02:31.079
Over? Oh? And not just
the president? By the way,

799
01:02:31.119 --> 01:02:37.079
do you know who's you know,
who's the entertainment and I guess the MC

800
01:02:37.239 --> 01:02:43.239
if you will for the event?
Fat Joe? Yeah, when's the last

801
01:02:43.239 --> 01:02:45.840
time you heard news about Fat Joe? Man? Fat Joe? And I

802
01:02:45.840 --> 01:02:52.559
think the Triangle Pride band. So
but over under on whether you thought Ross

803
01:02:52.679 --> 01:02:59.480
do you think Fat Joe was still
with us? Because you know, dude's

804
01:02:59.480 --> 01:03:00.480
a big du I don't. I
don't know, ill will, I just

805
01:03:00.559 --> 01:03:04.559
want to point this out. I
really don't care. But I hadn't thought

806
01:03:04.559 --> 01:03:08.000
about that Joe in some time,
So, Annie Who, So we got

807
01:03:08.880 --> 01:03:14.639
but I can't find anything on Stein's
Twitter feed or on the on his campaign

808
01:03:14.760 --> 01:03:19.760
website, So I don't know.
So maybe I know he and Robinson had

809
01:03:20.159 --> 01:03:23.559
they were in Wilmington yesterday at was
it the Chamber or no, it was

810
01:03:24.639 --> 01:03:28.039
what they call it. It's a
it's a business leaders thing down there.

811
01:03:28.079 --> 01:03:30.800
I don't know, it's the Chamber. And so they both spoke at that

812
01:03:30.880 --> 01:03:35.559
event down in Wilmington yesterday, and
he's posted gazillion things about that, but

813
01:03:36.719 --> 01:03:39.199
I don't see anything on the other
thing. So Annie Who, Let's get

814
01:03:39.199 --> 01:03:46.000
into the juicy tid bits, right, suckers and losers, Charlottesville, Stormy

815
01:03:46.079 --> 01:03:51.719
Daniels, felony convictions, your son's
a drug addict, all of that.

816
01:03:51.840 --> 01:03:54.719
This was the nastiness. This was
the meeting us that people were predicting would

817
01:03:55.320 --> 01:04:00.760
be a large part of this,
and it did manifest, but not as

818
01:04:00.840 --> 01:04:02.280
much as I think some people want
it. All Right, let's start with

819
01:04:03.880 --> 01:04:06.960
you know, he's not a loser, not a sucker. You're the sucker.

820
01:04:08.079 --> 01:04:12.280
You're the loser, all right.
So and again that's the that's the

821
01:04:12.320 --> 01:04:15.639
story where the even the author of
the story. You promised to reveal sourcing

822
01:04:15.679 --> 01:04:19.719
on it, just be forgot about
it. I don't know whoopsie. And

823
01:04:19.719 --> 01:04:25.639
then Biden does the Stormy Daniels thing
after he feigns the outrage over his kid,

824
01:04:26.239 --> 01:04:29.079
and I think he believes this stuff
in the same way that I was

825
01:04:29.159 --> 01:04:31.800
watching him. I was watching Biden
when he was talking about the Charlottesville thing,

826
01:04:32.360 --> 01:04:35.960
and Trump's like, dude, this
has been debunked. This has been

827
01:04:36.000 --> 01:04:43.519
debunked by partisan journalists. Right,
what do you what are you doing?

828
01:04:43.639 --> 01:04:47.199
And it looks Biden. I think
Biden honestly believes that that's what he said

829
01:04:48.760 --> 01:04:53.840
without any of the context around it. I think that's and that's amazing to

830
01:04:53.880 --> 01:04:58.079
me because I just assume when people
go down that road, they they know

831
01:04:58.360 --> 01:05:01.559
what it is, but they don't
care, which is super slimy. But

832
01:05:01.599 --> 01:05:04.960
at least I understand that, you
know, you can, you have ears

833
01:05:05.079 --> 01:05:11.960
that work. So this is this
is now on the button bar forever.

834
01:05:12.000 --> 01:05:19.440
I didn't have sex with a porn
star presidential race. Friends, that's the

835
01:05:19.480 --> 01:05:23.199
other year. Are you gonna tell
you should take credit though, for the

836
01:05:23.199 --> 01:05:30.199
playmate of the year though, I
mean, AnyWho, All right, let's

837
01:05:30.199 --> 01:05:33.599
get in. Let's get into the
conviction because as you can imagine, Biden

838
01:05:33.639 --> 01:05:38.760
did go there, and I think
Trump was prepared. It's not new information,

839
01:05:38.880 --> 01:05:41.480
but I think he packaged it effectively. Number two, that was a

840
01:05:41.559 --> 01:05:45.000
case that was started and moved.
They moved a high ranking official, a

841
01:05:45.079 --> 01:05:49.599
DJ into the Manhattan DA's office to
start that case. That case is going

842
01:05:49.679 --> 01:05:55.320
to be appealed and won. We
had a very terrible judge, a horrible

843
01:05:55.400 --> 01:06:00.199
judge Democrat. The prosecutor, we're
all high ranking Democrats, pointed people and

844
01:06:00.800 --> 01:06:06.679
both the civil and the criminal.
He basically went after his political opponent because

845
01:06:06.719 --> 01:06:10.440
he thought it was going to damage
me. But when the public found out

846
01:06:10.480 --> 01:06:13.079
about these cases, because they understand
it better than he does. He has

847
01:06:13.119 --> 01:06:16.000
no idea what these cases are.
But when they found out about these cases,

848
01:06:16.000 --> 01:06:18.400
you know what they did. My
poll numbers went up, way up.

849
01:06:18.480 --> 01:06:21.400
You know that because you're reporting it. And we took in more money

850
01:06:21.440 --> 01:06:27.079
in the last two weeks than we've
ever taken in the history of any campaign.

851
01:06:27.119 --> 01:06:30.119
I don't think any campaign has ever
taken hundreds of This is by the

852
01:06:30.119 --> 01:06:33.239
way, this is like that caller
reference. This is where the fact checkers

853
01:06:33.320 --> 01:06:39.800
get really excited because I don't know
if that's I don't know if that's true.

854
01:06:40.039 --> 01:06:42.239
You know, when you've adjusted it
for inflation. You know how they

855
01:06:42.239 --> 01:06:45.519
write fact checks. So but you
know, it's also how Trump speaks.

856
01:06:45.679 --> 01:06:48.440
Really put the cherry on. Let's
bring other people into a pistol whip what

857
01:06:48.480 --> 01:06:54.119
they thought was wrong. Pete Calender
Middays WBT. He joins us and Pete,

858
01:06:54.119 --> 01:06:58.840
I want to ask you a question
because right at this very moment,

859
01:07:00.079 --> 01:07:04.639
President of the United States is inside
of our broadcast footprint. Right I don't

860
01:07:04.639 --> 01:07:08.719
know where he is. I'm assuming
they wisto him to the Umstead or something

861
01:07:09.199 --> 01:07:12.079
and stuck him in his crowd chamber. But maybe look, maybe he's not

862
01:07:12.239 --> 01:07:17.280
moving around, and so the possibility
exists he could be listening right Yeah,

863
01:07:18.000 --> 01:07:24.199
Okay, what would you say to
Joe Biden if he was listening right now?

864
01:07:26.119 --> 01:07:29.880
There's some advice that you would give
him, or maybe what would you

865
01:07:29.920 --> 01:07:32.519
want to tell him if you knew
that he was listening right now? About

866
01:07:32.679 --> 01:07:38.599
last night, mister president, you
did a fantastic job. There are people

867
01:07:38.639 --> 01:07:43.679
that don't recognize how awesome of a
job you did last night. Your record

868
01:07:44.000 --> 01:07:47.880
is awesome as well. Keep up
the great work. Stay the course.

869
01:07:48.159 --> 01:07:53.519
People will they will come back to
your camp. I know the pulling might

870
01:07:53.559 --> 01:07:56.920
be a bit squirrely right now,
but I think it'll settle out in your

871
01:07:56.960 --> 01:08:01.719
favor. You probably will win every
single star eight because everybody hates Donald Trump.

872
01:08:01.800 --> 01:08:05.719
I mean, that's just the fact
nobody likes him. Uh and right,

873
01:08:06.119 --> 01:08:10.480
yeah, so you're you're you're gonna
be fine. Just keep doing what

874
01:08:10.480 --> 01:08:15.159
you're doing. Now. You may
hear some calls for people that want you

875
01:08:15.199 --> 01:08:18.359
to like step aside or something,
but they're just jealous and they're they're you

876
01:08:18.399 --> 01:08:21.680
know, they've got their own moves
in mind, they're trying to secure power

877
01:08:21.840 --> 01:08:26.760
whatever. Uh, don't listen to
them. Stay the course, stay in

878
01:08:26.800 --> 01:08:30.800
the race all the way through the
convention. You got this this segment,

879
01:08:30.800 --> 01:08:32.760
by the way, being brought to
you by the wheelbarrow full of money next

880
01:08:32.760 --> 01:08:36.720
to Pete right now. So well, wait, I'll tell you why,

881
01:08:36.720 --> 01:08:40.720
I'll tell you what was fascinating,
and then finish up where you're at.

882
01:08:40.800 --> 01:08:44.880
And if you've got to pause randomly
for five seconds at a time during your

883
01:08:44.880 --> 01:08:47.600
response, that's fine too. Way
ahead of you, Okay, what clear

884
01:08:47.680 --> 01:08:53.239
thinking presidents do They gather their thoughts, Casey well he had a cold,

885
01:08:53.279 --> 01:08:58.039
Pete so and Trump lied. Why
wouldn't you talk about Trump's lies? Trump

886
01:08:58.119 --> 01:09:02.640
was a liar last night. Everybody
knows Trump black All my life, I've

887
01:09:02.640 --> 01:09:06.439
been on this side of the equation. Well, I forgot. I took

888
01:09:06.479 --> 01:09:10.600
that audio was the smaller one.
But that's Trump saint Biden lies. So

889
01:09:10.720 --> 01:09:15.000
I don't know what to believe.
Here's here's though. There was two things

890
01:09:15.039 --> 01:09:16.600
that were very telling to me.
And I try to look for the things

891
01:09:16.640 --> 01:09:20.279
that maybe the other hosts aren't gonna
notice, so we don't all sound like

892
01:09:20.399 --> 01:09:25.800
One. Uh, there was a
glaring lack of he's wearing an ear piece

893
01:09:25.880 --> 01:09:32.000
conspiracy theories on Twitter yesterday and I
think nose, Well, that's did you

894
01:09:32.079 --> 01:09:38.079
not see? Right? Did you
not see? He jiped? Okay and

895
01:09:38.119 --> 01:09:42.199
then in the crack of his behind
and then uh probably didn't Biden came up

896
01:09:42.239 --> 01:09:45.239
to remove it. So but but
no, like a lot of the stuff

897
01:09:45.239 --> 01:09:47.359
that was normally there wasn't there,
and I think that was an indicator of

898
01:09:47.439 --> 01:09:51.800
the job. But two, and
this is the most important. It made

899
01:09:51.880 --> 01:09:58.600
Ross watch Ross in the morning,
he or in at night. He goes

900
01:09:58.640 --> 01:10:00.800
to bed, right and then he
it's up and he comes in extra early,

901
01:10:00.840 --> 01:10:04.680
and that's how he ingested debate.
I think it's so I don't text

902
01:10:04.720 --> 01:10:11.319
him all night, but the fact
that he watched it, that's crazy town.

903
01:10:11.439 --> 01:10:15.439
Man. Yeah. Well, and
the worst part was that if they

904
01:10:15.520 --> 01:10:20.720
were dosing the president with any kind
of meds, which by the way,

905
01:10:20.800 --> 01:10:25.880
there was a but there is a
pill. Like the people on the left

906
01:10:25.920 --> 01:10:30.079
were dismissing this idea that the president
would be juiced up somehow on you know

907
01:10:30.199 --> 01:10:33.359
prescriptions, like like, oh,
that's so stupid, but it's actually not.

908
01:10:34.199 --> 01:10:40.479
There's the former chief of staff for
Donald Trump, Mick mulvaney. He

909
01:10:40.640 --> 01:10:43.840
was on our morning show a couple
of well, I guess Monday morning,

910
01:10:43.920 --> 01:10:46.159
and he talked about there is a
pill. There is a prescription. It's

911
01:10:46.199 --> 01:10:50.119
in the White House medicine cabinet.
He knows because he took it. It's

912
01:10:50.159 --> 01:10:55.359
called provigil and I think the name, the actual name is like madafinil or

913
01:10:55.399 --> 01:10:58.960
something like that. And they use
this. They give it to pilots to

914
01:10:58.960 --> 01:11:02.760
to be focused and uh and clear
on long trips, on long missions and

915
01:11:02.760 --> 01:11:06.199
stuff like that. To me,
they tried to prescribe that. A doctor

916
01:11:06.239 --> 01:11:09.159
tried to prescribe it to me,
and I'm like, no, I don't

917
01:11:09.159 --> 01:11:11.880
want your I don't want that.
You don't want to be too smart.

918
01:11:12.680 --> 01:11:17.640
I have a very love hate relationship
with prescription medicines anyway. And I guess

919
01:11:17.680 --> 01:11:21.079
also they use it for smoking cessation, because I have the doctor explain it

920
01:11:21.079 --> 01:11:23.439
to me, and I'm just like, you know, I'm good, and

921
01:11:23.520 --> 01:11:26.359
it was really expensive. But when
your president, I suppose I'm paying for

922
01:11:26.439 --> 01:11:28.640
it. So yeah, I saw
it. I saw that post. I

923
01:11:28.680 --> 01:11:31.640
actually talked about it earlier this week. Oh good. Yeah, like I

924
01:11:31.880 --> 01:11:35.239
had, like I had long suspected
that they were, you know, every

925
01:11:35.279 --> 01:11:38.680
president, not just this one,
but every one of them. These guys

926
01:11:38.720 --> 01:11:41.720
keep ridiculous schedules right there, flying
all over the world. They got to

927
01:11:41.720 --> 01:11:45.399
then get off the plane and do
negotiations and you know, high stake stuff,

928
01:11:45.600 --> 01:11:48.159
and so there has to be there
at the very least, are getting

929
01:11:48.199 --> 01:11:53.920
ivy right at the very least.
So when uh Mick mulvaney explained this,

930
01:11:54.279 --> 01:11:57.159
and I was like, well,
that makes perfect sense. The problem is

931
01:11:57.399 --> 01:12:00.039
I think they they were. I
think if they were using him with something

932
01:12:00.520 --> 01:12:04.039
that you know, his cold maybe
got in the way of it, or

933
01:12:05.039 --> 01:12:13.000
the timing the release was not timed
well because he got stronger the longer the

934
01:12:13.039 --> 01:12:16.239
debate went on. The problem is
he was so bad at the beginning,

935
01:12:16.279 --> 01:12:23.039
and he confirmed everybody's fears at the
beginning that people who don't watch all the

936
01:12:23.079 --> 01:12:27.039
way through, and that's most Americans
that don't care about politics, they're going

937
01:12:27.119 --> 01:12:29.239
to tune in, they're going to
see the opening. They're going to catch

938
01:12:29.279 --> 01:12:31.680
a couple of minutes or whatever,
maybe twenty of it, and then they're

939
01:12:31.720 --> 01:12:36.560
gone. And the first that first
half of the debate was just painful.

940
01:12:36.680 --> 01:12:43.479
And anyone who has had an aging
grandparent or parent in their lives, they

941
01:12:43.479 --> 01:12:46.640
have seen the signs, they have
seen this behavior. It is it is

942
01:12:46.680 --> 01:12:51.640
so obvious now that even media and
Democrats but I repeat myself, can't ignore

943
01:12:51.640 --> 01:12:55.840
it, which to me is like
the funniest part of all of this,

944
01:12:55.880 --> 01:12:59.960
although it's terrifying, but the funniest
part is that all of these Democrat lawmen,

945
01:13:00.000 --> 01:13:03.239
makers and strategists and media people that
are like, I can't believe this

946
01:13:03.439 --> 01:13:09.520
performance, but really, were you
just believing the bs about the cheap think?

947
01:13:09.640 --> 01:13:12.560
So what's that all cheap think?
I mean that was the big winner

948
01:13:12.640 --> 01:13:15.680
last night was the split screen shot, right like that's oh yeah, that

949
01:13:16.159 --> 01:13:21.560
that conveyed everything that we need to
know. And honestly, I got to

950
01:13:21.600 --> 01:13:25.399
give credit to Donald Trump. And
I don't do this very often, but

951
01:13:25.439 --> 01:13:29.279
I got to give him credit.
He did not. He did not go

952
01:13:29.399 --> 01:13:33.079
off like, you know, an
unhinged lunatic. That's how the show.

953
01:13:33.239 --> 01:13:39.079
Yes, oh yeah, and so
yes, he did what he had to

954
01:13:39.079 --> 01:13:42.600
do because if he had, if
he had behaved as he has in the

955
01:13:42.680 --> 01:13:46.399
past, then I think that would
have overshadowed and it would have given people

956
01:13:46.520 --> 01:13:49.800
the ability to kind of look past
by him. But he just kind of

957
01:13:50.119 --> 01:13:53.079
you know, all they've got is
like, oh he lied, Yeah,

958
01:13:53.079 --> 01:13:55.880
well so did Joe Biden. He
lied like two dozen times too, about

959
01:13:55.920 --> 01:13:58.640
all sorts of stuff. That's what
politicians do. They lie all the time,

960
01:13:58.760 --> 01:14:02.399
especially Joe Biden. He's been doing
it for sixty years. So I

961
01:14:02.439 --> 01:14:06.479
thought, h Trump did a I
thought he did a good job. I

962
01:14:06.479 --> 01:14:11.239
mean on a Trump scale, right, he's not well, no, normal,

963
01:14:11.880 --> 01:14:15.680
that's exactly. Yes, that's exactly. And to echo your point,

964
01:14:15.079 --> 01:14:18.760
there is that fine line to where
you're acknowledging saying, hey, look at

965
01:14:18.760 --> 01:14:24.960
this, but you're not doing it
so often that people the simple you want

966
01:14:25.399 --> 01:14:28.399
it's okay to be sympathetic to what's
happening with Biden. And as you pointed

967
01:14:28.399 --> 01:14:30.960
out, I watched this with the
family member with my mom, with my

968
01:14:31.000 --> 01:14:35.359
grandmother who literally we had to explain
to her my mom died several times,

969
01:14:35.880 --> 01:14:40.600
like it's the emotions to go along
with it are just wild because my mom

970
01:14:40.640 --> 01:14:45.680
passed away before she did. And
so if Trump goes like first debate between

971
01:14:45.720 --> 01:14:50.199
those two and it's just all in
and every answer includes cognitive stuff, you

972
01:14:50.439 --> 01:14:54.279
you dig Biden out of that hole. So I don't know if somebody,

973
01:14:54.319 --> 01:14:57.359
I don't know if Trump thought of
the measured approach or somebody convinced him it

974
01:14:57.399 --> 01:15:00.960
was his own idea or whatever,
but it worked. And yeah, the

975
01:15:01.039 --> 01:15:08.479
format that the Biden camp pressed for
actually benefited Donald Trump more so. And

976
01:15:08.640 --> 01:15:12.760
also keep in mind, the earliest
this is a debate has ever happened,

977
01:15:12.880 --> 01:15:15.239
right, And this was at the
behest of the Biden camp, right.

978
01:15:15.319 --> 01:15:20.039
They asked for this. They prepped
for a week with like two dozen people

979
01:15:20.119 --> 01:15:25.880
around Joe Biden to fully prepare him. Built, they said, they built

980
01:15:25.880 --> 01:15:30.000
a face right in an airplane hangar. It's it's like the Bellagio highst in

981
01:15:30.039 --> 01:15:34.000
ocean's eleven. It's rat Yeah,
and so keep in mind, this is

982
01:15:34.399 --> 01:15:38.720
this is peak, This is the
best. Like, the thing about this

983
01:15:38.800 --> 01:15:43.239
kind of cognitive decline and physical decline
is that you'll never be better than you

984
01:15:43.279 --> 01:15:45.479
are today, right, there is
no there is no getting better. You

985
01:15:45.520 --> 01:15:50.279
don't turn the corner on this.
And and so what we saw was a

986
01:15:50.279 --> 01:15:55.960
week of preparation. Right, this
is Joe Biden performing at his best,

987
01:15:56.000 --> 01:15:58.439
and this is what that looks like. And then of course you have to

988
01:15:58.479 --> 01:16:01.720
ask who the hell is actually in
charge now, because it's pretty obvious that

989
01:16:01.800 --> 01:16:05.720
Joe Biden is not. And if
you watch doctor Jill helping him down the

990
01:16:05.760 --> 01:16:10.840
stairs at the end of the debate. After the debate was over, you

991
01:16:10.840 --> 01:16:15.880
could see the feed that's coming from
CNN, and it's again painful to watch.

992
01:16:15.920 --> 01:16:18.479
Now I do have some good news. The good news out of all

993
01:16:18.479 --> 01:16:25.079
of this, yeah, yeah,
is Kalala Harris has to go. Like

994
01:16:25.159 --> 01:16:30.399
that's the silver lining here is now
everybody is aware that the vice president needs

995
01:16:30.439 --> 01:16:36.560
to somehow get off the ticket because
if she's still there, they can't get

996
01:16:36.640 --> 01:16:41.600
rid of Joe. They have put
themselves in a very very tight spot here

997
01:16:41.840 --> 01:16:45.039
because if they want to get rid
of Joe Biden as now you see all

998
01:16:45.039 --> 01:16:48.279
these people talking about it inside the
democratic circles, because that's what democracy looks

999
01:16:48.319 --> 01:16:54.119
like. I'm told is to not
let your voters decide who is going to

1000
01:16:54.119 --> 01:16:57.760
be the nominee, but you're going
to go into a convention and pick somebody

1001
01:16:57.840 --> 01:17:00.960
else. So they but they can't
do that. You can't remove him with

1002
01:17:02.840 --> 01:17:06.159
well no, so and this is
where And I'm glad that you're digging into

1003
01:17:06.199 --> 01:17:10.920
this because I don't know that I
am comfortable that I know exactly the answer

1004
01:17:10.920 --> 01:17:15.680
to this. There are mechanisms within
each Both parties have mechanisms because right,

1005
01:17:15.720 --> 01:17:16.760
you know, if a candidate dies, what do you do, Like you

1006
01:17:16.840 --> 01:17:20.039
have to have some sort of scenario
for this. So it's one thing to

1007
01:17:20.039 --> 01:17:23.479
say, you know, if they
just eighty six Biden, but if he

1008
01:17:23.520 --> 01:17:25.880
comes out and he's like, look
we got a lot going in with the

1009
01:17:25.880 --> 01:17:28.680
family, I'm going to go,
you know, take the you know that

1010
01:17:28.800 --> 01:17:32.520
standard thing. Does he instantly go
to Kamala because we haven't gone to the

1011
01:17:32.560 --> 01:17:36.520
nomination the nominating thing. And I
wonder if Republicans or the Trump campaign made

1012
01:17:36.560 --> 01:17:43.079
a mistake by not waiting until after
he was nominated, So what do you

1013
01:17:43.119 --> 01:17:46.600
know? So he is so at
sitting president, like the party is irrelevant

1014
01:17:46.640 --> 01:17:49.960
at this point because he's sitting president. If he's going to step down,

1015
01:17:50.520 --> 01:17:55.239
then Kamala takes over, takes over. Yeah, I got that, understood,

1016
01:17:55.319 --> 01:17:59.640
understand that. So so then what
what then what comes next? Right,

1017
01:18:00.039 --> 01:18:03.800
she's obviously if if that's if that
happens first, then she is obviously

1018
01:18:03.800 --> 01:18:08.079
going to seek the nomination. Now, maybe that happens in an open convention

1019
01:18:08.159 --> 01:18:11.039
and they have to fight it out
and then she gets she gets bumped.

1020
01:18:11.319 --> 01:18:15.239
Right in the convention, you get
super delegates. They do things differently over

1021
01:18:15.359 --> 01:18:16.840
right. But part of the problem
right now, you've got a problem,

1022
01:18:16.920 --> 01:18:21.159
though, is that like some of
these electors are already committed and they can't

1023
01:18:21.159 --> 01:18:27.479
be like Wisconsin, they can't be
moved from Joe Biden. What happens to

1024
01:18:27.520 --> 01:18:30.479
those don't know? Right? They're
going to do for the numbers that you

1025
01:18:30.600 --> 01:18:34.439
have that are still uncommitted, so
long as the committed don't outweigh it.

1026
01:18:34.560 --> 01:18:39.399
So I mean, and you know
as well as I do, that rules

1027
01:18:39.399 --> 01:18:43.960
at a convention can change, can
change absolutely, and they do. They

1028
01:18:44.079 --> 01:18:47.760
they love doing that. So you
yeah, I'm gonna speed you along too,

1029
01:18:47.800 --> 01:18:51.199
just because I have like nine things
I want to get to. I

1030
01:18:51.520 --> 01:18:56.239
Look, here's the problem is,
there's two problems. One, the conversations

1031
01:18:56.319 --> 01:19:00.760
right now are about down ballot races
and fundraising the big any donors aren't going

1032
01:19:00.840 --> 01:19:02.439
to give them money. Josh Stein, do you, by the way,

1033
01:19:02.439 --> 01:19:08.279
do you think he shows up to
that rally today at the news? Yeah,

1034
01:19:08.279 --> 01:19:11.039
I couldn't find anything on his Twitter
or any of the rest of this.

1035
01:19:11.560 --> 01:19:16.119
But but that is that's their that's
their huge problem here. And uh

1036
01:19:16.279 --> 01:19:19.920
and so they had they have to
go ahead and figure that out. And

1037
01:19:19.960 --> 01:19:23.800
if people just go, look,
I'm not throwing money at that, that

1038
01:19:23.960 --> 01:19:28.680
is devastating. So that but the
problem is is Democrats do something that Republicans

1039
01:19:28.720 --> 01:19:31.880
don't, and that is lockstep on
stuff. Right, and so all of

1040
01:19:31.920 --> 01:19:36.319
the things that voters hate right now
about what Biden's doing, Any candidate you

1041
01:19:36.319 --> 01:19:41.800
could possibly think of is on record
going, yeah, screw Israel or yeah,

1042
01:19:41.880 --> 01:19:45.399
no, the border's fine. Right, They're mired in it because everyone

1043
01:19:45.479 --> 01:19:48.359
has to be in lockstep. So
it's a double problem in my opinion.

1044
01:19:49.000 --> 01:19:53.039
Oh yeah, well, yeah,
you've got the donors that are closing their

1045
01:19:53.119 --> 01:19:56.439
checkbooks. I've seen multiple stories about
it already today they're like, I'm not

1046
01:19:56.479 --> 01:20:00.520
going to put money on that,
And that then creates problems if you are

1047
01:20:00.560 --> 01:20:03.880
the organization of the you know,
Democrat Party at the state or national level,

1048
01:20:04.119 --> 01:20:08.920
because you need that money obviously to
sprinkle around into all of the different

1049
01:20:08.960 --> 01:20:12.000
races. In North Carolina Democrats that
are always every single year, they're like,

1050
01:20:12.039 --> 01:20:14.720
we're at swing state, We're in
play. You should put a bunch

1051
01:20:14.760 --> 01:20:17.079
of money in here. Here.
A few years ago, weren't they basically

1052
01:20:17.079 --> 01:20:19.800
go around the verge of bankruptcy.
Yeah, correct, Yeah, they were

1053
01:20:19.840 --> 01:20:24.960
about to lose their headquarters because they
couldn't pay the rent. So kay Hagen

1054
01:20:25.039 --> 01:20:30.520
had to use the Wake County Republic
or Wake County Democrat Party apparatus to help

1055
01:20:30.560 --> 01:20:33.199
her in her campaign against Tom Tallis, which she lost because the state party

1056
01:20:33.279 --> 01:20:39.720
was a wreck. So the the
down ballot impacts from a fundraising standpoint,

1057
01:20:39.840 --> 01:20:43.600
it just means there's not going to
be enough money going around at the lower

1058
01:20:43.680 --> 01:20:46.640
levels to help the local candidates.
And now I mean the Democrats. This

1059
01:20:46.640 --> 01:20:53.560
this could cost them the Congress.
They could lose every winnable Senate see and

1060
01:20:53.680 --> 01:20:58.840
healthy. Yeah, if the money. We're the most important governor's race.

1061
01:20:58.880 --> 01:21:01.279
That's what I heard. And so
the you know, the the gazillion dollars

1062
01:21:01.319 --> 01:21:03.920
they were going to spend, I
mean, bad news for us, right,

1063
01:21:04.720 --> 01:21:09.159
that's that's our money. Yeah,
that's the reality of it. So

1064
01:21:09.560 --> 01:21:12.399
let me ask you this, just
because I got just about two minutes left.

1065
01:21:12.680 --> 01:21:15.680
Give me the where what we see
over the next week peak calendar prediction,

1066
01:21:15.800 --> 01:21:18.039
and then if you're wrong, will
beat you up next week. So

1067
01:21:18.520 --> 01:21:20.680
fire away, sir. What do
you where do you think this? What

1068
01:21:20.720 --> 01:21:26.359
do you think we start seeing as
the news cycle opens today, today,

1069
01:21:26.920 --> 01:21:30.039
today, over the next week people, So for the next three days,

1070
01:21:30.199 --> 01:21:32.520
right, So I think for the
next three days, you're going to be

1071
01:21:32.600 --> 01:21:38.159
seeing all of the you know,
the internal deliberations, if you will,

1072
01:21:38.199 --> 01:21:42.000
in the leaking of stories and narratives
about what to do about Joe Biden.

1073
01:21:42.199 --> 01:21:45.640
Right, You're going to see some
I think pushback you know, from the

1074
01:21:45.680 --> 01:21:49.520
White House on that stuff. I
doubt that they're going to do any kind

1075
01:21:49.560 --> 01:21:55.960
of like uh like collaring Jean Pierre
kind of uh uh uh press conferences from

1076
01:21:55.960 --> 01:21:59.680
the podium for a while. But
I could be wrong on that. As

1077
01:21:59.760 --> 01:22:02.039
you know, it's like I don't
know, like they're gonna They're gonna try

1078
01:22:02.039 --> 01:22:05.479
to, you know, make whatever
case they can. But I don't think

1079
01:22:05.600 --> 01:22:09.159
Joe is going anywhere. I said
this before. I really like, I

1080
01:22:09.359 --> 01:22:11.880
think there's gonna be an effort to
try to get him out, but I

1081
01:22:11.880 --> 01:22:15.079
I don't think he's he's interested in
leaving, and I don't think the family

1082
01:22:15.199 --> 01:22:18.880
is like they all knew this.
Everybody that saw that last night has to

1083
01:22:18.960 --> 01:22:23.720
know that this is not the first
time they saw him, and so the

1084
01:22:23.720 --> 01:22:26.560
family is going to be pushing back
on that. Now, maybe I'm wrong,

1085
01:22:26.560 --> 01:22:29.199
and maybe some of the poohbahs in
the Democrat Party go up to him

1086
01:22:29.239 --> 01:22:30.359
and like, hey man, you
need to you need to step aside,

1087
01:22:30.520 --> 01:22:33.239
right, Yeah, I don't Yeah, I don't think so. I think

1088
01:22:33.239 --> 01:22:38.239
they're going to try to focus like
the next thing that Donald Trump says that

1089
01:22:38.479 --> 01:22:43.880
is borderline wacky, it's going to
be just all in. Yeah, it's

1090
01:22:43.960 --> 01:22:45.800
I think they're gonna have to try
to bigfoot the story. All right,

1091
01:22:45.840 --> 01:22:47.760
Pete Calender, And I'll tell you
what. I don't know. If you

1092
01:22:47.760 --> 01:22:51.119
saw the Kamala post debate, We're
gonna play that audio for all you coming

1093
01:22:51.199 --> 01:22:54.680
up. Uh, don't send her
to do it. That's uh, that

1094
01:22:54.720 --> 01:22:57.960
would not work out. But all
right, Pete, well I'm sure your

1095
01:22:58.000 --> 01:23:00.560
show is going to be banging.
You can streaming on the iHeart Radio app

1096
01:23:00.600 --> 01:23:02.159
and we'll talk next week and be
right back hang on. All right.

1097
01:23:02.479 --> 01:23:05.159
You know, I hate to do
this on the air, but I'm on

1098
01:23:05.199 --> 01:23:08.359
the air, and I'm in this
segment, and I was going to get

1099
01:23:08.399 --> 01:23:14.079
into this thing. And and Rossie, look, you put in a lot

1100
01:23:14.079 --> 01:23:18.439
of work, thank you, you
know, getting getting in an hour early

1101
01:23:19.119 --> 01:23:21.520
today, all of the great audio. We got more. We're gonna get

1102
01:23:21.520 --> 01:23:26.960
into the Kamala Harris audio. So
understand that. I appreciate that. But

1103
01:23:27.119 --> 01:23:33.039
I asked for Today's New York Times
cover first today it's two hours early.

1104
01:23:33.960 --> 01:23:42.439
Well, second, that's today's paper. It's no, there's no, there's

1105
01:23:41.960 --> 01:23:46.239
It couldn't possibly be today's pay What
is the lead story here? Justice is

1106
01:23:46.319 --> 01:23:55.399
ruling in perils the aid deal for
opioid crisis. Oklahoma moves to require teaching

1107
01:23:55.520 --> 01:24:02.199
the Bible in school as sons.
There's an assange follow up. China I

1108
01:24:02.319 --> 01:24:10.159
Ran intensifies work on nuke's. How
is that today's That couldn't possibly be today's

1109
01:24:10.159 --> 01:24:15.600
paper? You're telling me that The
New York Times, on the front page

1110
01:24:15.600 --> 01:24:19.199
of their paper, top and bottom
fold, didn't run a single story about

1111
01:24:19.199 --> 01:24:25.560
the debate. I mean, there's
more important things going on, right and

1112
01:24:25.680 --> 01:24:29.319
I'm sure somewhere in the back well. Now, if you go to the

1113
01:24:29.359 --> 01:24:35.039
op ed section, it's every writer
is abandoning, including Friedman and others.

1114
01:24:34.840 --> 01:24:39.439
It's it's crazy. If you go
to the opinion section of New York Times

1115
01:24:39.520 --> 01:24:43.479
right now, everyone's like, hey, we love you, but no,

1116
01:24:44.600 --> 01:24:48.680
so there's that. Now. Did
you see the headline and CNN? I

1117
01:24:48.960 --> 01:24:53.840
am so inundated with headlines? Maybe
I did, Maybe I didn't. What

1118
01:24:53.840 --> 01:25:00.359
what happened to It just says we
are I'm not kidding. Stop, it

1119
01:25:00.399 --> 01:25:03.760
says we are on there. So
if I go to their website right now,

1120
01:25:03.920 --> 01:25:06.560
that's not that they bleep out the
F word, but yeah, that

1121
01:25:06.680 --> 01:25:14.079
is their headlight on the babylon b
right. No, do you understand that.

1122
01:25:14.159 --> 01:25:21.680
I feel this is why I brought
the multiverse up, because oh wow,

1123
01:25:24.439 --> 01:25:30.840
oh uh, President Biden, if
you're listening, don't go to CNN

1124
01:25:30.960 --> 01:25:34.399
dot com. Okay, you could
just avoid doing that, that'd be great.

1125
01:25:38.279 --> 01:25:43.680
That is savage in the New York
Now Obviously The New York Times does

1126
01:25:43.760 --> 01:25:46.560
have stories. They actually have it, so they have it. I guess

1127
01:25:46.560 --> 01:25:49.600
they have a debate section and they're
like, no, we have a debate

1128
01:25:49.640 --> 01:25:54.600
section. That's why it's not on
the front. Whatever. Shut up.

1129
01:25:55.239 --> 01:25:59.199
The op ed is just one after
another. The hits keep coming kind of

1130
01:25:59.239 --> 01:26:03.279
stuff. It's wild. But I
just like it's I have the inability this

1131
01:26:03.399 --> 01:26:09.960
morning. You know, we've been
doing this for so long. There's things

1132
01:26:10.039 --> 01:26:15.079
behind the scenes. You don't know
the level of giddiness omitting from Ross's studio

1133
01:26:15.159 --> 01:26:18.720
this morning, where every every every
break we go to break he's like,

1134
01:26:18.760 --> 01:26:20.680
oh my gosh, did you see
what I just put on the button bar?

1135
01:26:21.399 --> 01:26:25.399
I mean, we have a page
and how we have thirty five audio

1136
01:26:25.439 --> 01:26:27.399
cuts today, a lot of it. I will not get to all of

1137
01:26:27.399 --> 01:26:29.039
them. I will not get to
all of them, but I want you

1138
01:26:29.119 --> 01:26:33.439
to leave that page up because I
expect when certain people start certain criticisms,

1139
01:26:34.359 --> 01:26:38.760
then we can just go back to
it. So, yeah, there's a

1140
01:26:38.800 --> 01:26:43.479
page and a half is monstrous.
I mean, it just cuts twenty six.

1141
01:26:43.560 --> 01:26:45.359
We could fit twenty six on the
button bar, right, but yeah,

1142
01:26:46.119 --> 01:26:49.239
twenty four. Yeah, it's just
a matter of like I said last

1143
01:26:49.319 --> 01:26:53.439
night going to bed, because every
single time one of these things rolls around,

1144
01:26:53.479 --> 01:26:55.640
it's always the same, Right,
we don't see the Joe Biden at

1145
01:26:55.680 --> 01:26:58.960
Normandy or we see day to day
at that State of the Union or at

1146
01:26:59.000 --> 01:27:00.399
these debates. And last night before
I went to bed, I picked up

1147
01:27:00.399 --> 01:27:03.760
my phones just to check it out, and it was like the the Steve

1148
01:27:03.800 --> 01:27:10.039
Carell office meme where suddenly it was
like, oh, it's happening, It's

1149
01:27:10.079 --> 01:27:14.079
happening. Yeah, Like he's just
completely melting down on stage so much,

1150
01:27:14.399 --> 01:27:18.159
so much so that you have people
like Chrystaliza Sang from the Young Turks or

1151
01:27:18.159 --> 01:27:20.840
whever you say his name. He's
kind of been out for he's kind of

1152
01:27:20.840 --> 01:27:24.279
been out for a while. I
will say that you have the guy.

1153
01:27:24.439 --> 01:27:26.600
Yeah, you have these people that
are always in the tank though, right,

1154
01:27:26.640 --> 01:27:30.039
that are like this is not good, Like this is bad bad.

1155
01:27:31.840 --> 01:27:34.920
I don't know. But if you
think Kamala Harris is going to be the

1156
01:27:34.960 --> 01:27:42.159
answer, this is. This was
the probably one of the last three things

1157
01:27:42.239 --> 01:27:46.399
Ross was very giddy about. And
I got a chance to watch it,

1158
01:27:46.880 --> 01:27:51.479
and I kind of understand why so
Pete mentioned it. But I want you

1159
01:27:51.520 --> 01:27:56.840
to remember the terms of this debate, the date of this debate, like,

1160
01:27:56.960 --> 01:28:00.159
you know, not having the audience, it's before the thing. Who

1161
01:28:00.199 --> 01:28:06.039
who even is going to host?
That these were all exactly what the campaign

1162
01:28:06.119 --> 01:28:13.520
wanted. I don't think Trump pushed
back on anything. And yeah, that's

1163
01:28:13.840 --> 01:28:15.800
it was a roll of the dice, but it seemed to have paid off.

1164
01:28:16.359 --> 01:28:24.479
So now Kamala Harris is sitting down
with Anderson Cooper and it's not going

1165
01:28:24.560 --> 01:28:27.760
well. He was a very different
person on the stage four years ago when

1166
01:28:27.800 --> 01:28:30.640
when you debated him, you must
I mean that that's certainly true, is

1167
01:28:30.640 --> 01:28:33.000
it not? And by the way, that is a This is a very

1168
01:28:33.000 --> 01:28:36.479
good point because remember Kamala was the
one with the school bus thing, right

1169
01:28:36.800 --> 01:28:44.199
with the bus sing and the little
girl picture, and she arguably got the

1170
01:28:44.520 --> 01:28:48.720
hardest punch into Biden at the debate
of any of the debates, I believe,

1171
01:28:49.439 --> 01:28:53.000
to the point where people were really
surprised that he would pick her for

1172
01:28:53.119 --> 01:28:57.319
VP because she just she called him
a racist. But anyway, all right,

1173
01:28:57.359 --> 01:28:59.760
so here we go. He was
a very different person on the stage

1174
01:28:59.800 --> 01:29:02.640
four years ago when when you debated
him, you must, I mean that

1175
01:29:02.640 --> 01:29:09.399
that's certainly true, is it not? Anderson? The point has to be

1176
01:29:10.199 --> 01:29:16.319
performance in terms of what a president
does, a president who against the capitol.

1177
01:29:16.960 --> 01:29:20.319
No, but I got the point
that you're making about a one and

1178
01:29:20.359 --> 01:29:25.880
a half hour debate tonight. I'm
talking about three and a half years of

1179
01:29:25.960 --> 01:29:32.479
performance in work that has been historic. The other night, that, the

1180
01:29:32.520 --> 01:29:36.319
other night on the debate, every
day. By the way, this is

1181
01:29:36.359 --> 01:29:40.920
this is this is akin to being
like, well, John Wayne Gacy didn't

1182
01:29:41.000 --> 01:29:43.840
kill the kids at the first few
parties. He worked, right, Come

1183
01:29:43.880 --> 01:29:46.520
on, I mean the good old
days. Man, this is a doomed

1184
01:29:47.680 --> 01:29:50.920
direction. She's taking this and it's
and by the way, you're like,

1185
01:29:50.920 --> 01:29:55.920
oh, this is hard to it
gets so much worse. The person that

1186
01:29:55.960 --> 01:30:00.880
you saw on the debate stage that
has for the last three and a half

1187
01:30:00.000 --> 01:30:04.319
years up until today, performed in
a way that has been about, whether

1188
01:30:04.359 --> 01:30:11.399
it be in the Oval Office negotiating
bipartisan deals so that we have an infrastructure

1189
01:30:11.600 --> 01:30:15.479
a real infrastructure plan where we're putting
trillions of dollars on the streets of America

1190
01:30:15.520 --> 01:30:18.439
to upgrade our infrastructure. Whether it
be the person I see in the Oval

1191
01:30:18.479 --> 01:30:25.920
Office who is meeting with heads of
the military and the intelligence community, and

1192
01:30:26.000 --> 01:30:30.359
in the situation room and by the
way, this is and she led herself

1193
01:30:30.399 --> 01:30:33.920
into this because you'll hear with Anderson, but stepping into the person I see

1194
01:30:33.960 --> 01:30:38.880
in the Oval office. The next
logical question that pops into my head,

1195
01:30:38.960 --> 01:30:42.560
thankfully, is what Cooper went with
here? We got ensuring the safety of

1196
01:30:42.600 --> 01:30:46.680
America, the person I see in
Joe Biden on the world stage, convening

1197
01:30:46.800 --> 01:30:51.359
world leaders who often ask for his
advice, most recently just during the G

1198
01:30:51.479 --> 01:30:55.920
seven conference. So I'm not going
to spend all night with you talking about

1199
01:30:55.920 --> 01:31:00.000
the last ninety minutes when I've been
watching the last three and a half year.

1200
01:31:00.039 --> 01:31:03.840
Here's a performance. But this was
a debate that your campaign wanted,

1201
01:31:03.920 --> 01:31:09.319
You pushed for this debate at this
moment. Yes, yes, this is

1202
01:31:09.399 --> 01:31:13.560
everything that you wanted, and he's
asking you and you literally give it to

1203
01:31:13.680 --> 01:31:20.039
him this debate. How does that
comport with what you see? And and

1204
01:31:20.199 --> 01:31:24.840
she doesn't want to go there,
She doesn't have an answer. I'm blown

1205
01:31:24.840 --> 01:31:29.279
away. Nobody prepped her for it
at all, because the prepping for her

1206
01:31:29.399 --> 01:31:32.920
sitting down after should have started thirty
seconds into that debate, right, and

1207
01:31:32.960 --> 01:31:39.720
I'm sure did. And she either
chose not to or decided that she had

1208
01:31:39.720 --> 01:31:45.439
a better answer. But there I
have to think that if if somehow,

1209
01:31:45.560 --> 01:31:48.680
some way he is out, and
maybe he's not going to be, it

1210
01:31:48.720 --> 01:31:55.399
has to be a path that doesn't
involve her cause I don't think her.

1211
01:31:55.800 --> 01:32:00.319
Can you imagine Trump in a debate
with her? I don't know. Man.

1212
01:32:00.439 --> 01:32:03.479
We'll get some popcorn first, though. Let's get some weather and Jeff

1213
01:32:03.520 --> 01:32:09.920
Mars here from the Weather Channel.
Since ray takes super long weekends, what's

1214
01:32:10.000 --> 01:32:12.159
up, Jeff? What do we
doing? Some of the hot weather hats

1215
01:32:12.199 --> 01:32:14.600
for sure as we headed it this
weekend, and then we'll get a little

1216
01:32:14.640 --> 01:32:16.960
bit of relief early next week before
temperature starts to rebound heading towards the fourth.

1217
01:32:17.159 --> 01:32:19.640
As far as today's sunshine with the
light breeze out of the ease the

1218
01:32:19.720 --> 01:32:24.359
end result of hind you're ninety four
this afternoon and then tonight, increasing clouds,

1219
01:32:24.399 --> 01:32:28.239
possibly an isolated shower thunderstorm this evening, with an overnight love of seventy

1220
01:32:28.279 --> 01:32:30.920
four, hot in human tomorrow high
in the mid nineties, the heat index

1221
01:32:30.000 --> 01:32:33.319
hitting the triple ditch when you factor
the humidity. The temperatures climb a few

1222
01:32:33.319 --> 01:32:38.399
more isolated afternoon thunderstorms, that chance
for rain increasees Sunday, which showers likely

1223
01:32:38.439 --> 01:32:41.760
also some more thunderstorms and a high. You're ninety five than clearing Monday with

1224
01:32:41.800 --> 01:32:44.840
a high reaching eighty seven degrees.
All right, Jeff, thank you so

1225
01:32:44.920 --> 01:32:48.000
much, sir, do appreciate it. And we'll chat with Jeff Bellinger from

1226
01:32:48.199 --> 01:32:54.159
Bloomberg News. Ras. Shall we
get Jeff's debate reaction? I wonder if

1227
01:32:54.159 --> 01:32:57.000
you'll go there? All right,
we'll try hang on. Well, good

1228
01:32:57.000 --> 01:33:01.319
morning, casey. Economists have gotten
good to predict the monthly PCE index,

1229
01:33:01.359 --> 01:33:05.720
which is the inflation gauge preferred by
the Federal Reserve. The index that came

1230
01:33:05.800 --> 01:33:10.960
in unchanged last month. As expected, The year over year advance was two

1231
01:33:10.960 --> 01:33:15.800
point six percent. That was the
smallest increase in six months. Stock market

1232
01:33:15.800 --> 01:33:18.920
futures are mostly higher right now.
The S and P futures are up eleven

1233
01:33:18.960 --> 01:33:24.560
points, Nasdaq futures are up fifty
five, and the Dow futures are unchanged

1234
01:33:24.600 --> 01:33:29.119
at the moment. American's personal incomes
rose half a percent last month. That

1235
01:33:29.319 --> 01:33:32.479
was a bigger than expected increase.
Consumers spending was up two tens percent,

1236
01:33:32.920 --> 01:33:38.960
not as much as predicted. Nike
shares down nearly fifteen percent, pre market.

1237
01:33:39.000 --> 01:33:42.920
The sneaker maker reported weaker sales for
the latest quarter. The numbers for

1238
01:33:43.000 --> 01:33:47.159
its Converse subsidiary where especially weak.
Sales were soft in North America and in

1239
01:33:47.199 --> 01:33:53.039
Western Europe. Nike's outlook for the
current fiscal year was also a big disappointment.

1240
01:33:53.279 --> 01:33:57.079
At least two brokerages have cut their
ratings and price targets on Nike.

1241
01:33:57.520 --> 01:34:02.000
Nokia's buying an American networking company,
the Finnish Telecom will acquire California based in

1242
01:34:02.199 --> 01:34:08.359
finera corporation that neil is worth two
point three billion dollars. We've spent all

1243
01:34:08.399 --> 01:34:12.000
of the money we managed to save
during the pandemic. The savings help people

1244
01:34:12.039 --> 01:34:15.920
handle higher prices, but now that
the cash is gone, consumers are trimming

1245
01:34:15.960 --> 01:34:19.159
their spending. That's rippling through the
economy. Delinquencies are on the increase.

1246
01:34:19.479 --> 01:34:25.319
Retail sales were soft in April and
May, and chain store executives said during

1247
01:34:25.359 --> 01:34:30.479
recent earnings calls that shoppers have turned
cautious. In casey, a Western movie,

1248
01:34:30.560 --> 01:34:34.199
Horizon and American Saga Chapter one was
a labor of love for Kevin Costner.

1249
01:34:34.479 --> 01:34:40.039
It opens in theaters today, but
Box Office pro says movie fans are

1250
01:34:40.079 --> 01:34:44.039
not all that excited. Projections are
that the movie will take in between twelve

1251
01:34:44.079 --> 01:34:48.000
and twenty million dollars in the US
and Canada this weekend. The movie cost

1252
01:34:48.159 --> 01:34:53.840
one hundred million dollars to make.
Costner says he put thirty eight million dollars

1253
01:34:53.880 --> 01:34:58.399
of his own money into the project. Casey, alrighty, thank you much.

1254
01:34:58.479 --> 01:35:00.239
Jeff, you want to you want
to do a Beata analysis with us?

1255
01:35:00.279 --> 01:35:03.399
Did you watch last night or I
couldn't stay up and watch it.

1256
01:35:03.439 --> 01:35:06.600
I heard a lot of clips from
it, and I think I heard what

1257
01:35:06.640 --> 01:35:10.600
everybody else heard. I'm going to
leave it at that. All right,

1258
01:35:10.680 --> 01:35:12.880
fair enough, Thank you sir,
appreciate it. Have a good weekend.

1259
01:35:12.960 --> 01:35:17.680
Take care. Yep, there you
go. Jeff Bellingcher Bloomberg News and uh

1260
01:35:17.760 --> 01:35:24.560
yeah, all right, what did
I What nine things have you learned in

1261
01:35:24.560 --> 01:35:29.479
the last five minutes? Ross that
has you giddy other than savaging by who

1262
01:35:29.520 --> 01:35:35.000
is that? Chris Wallace? Chris
Wallace called it a car crash that just

1263
01:35:35.119 --> 01:35:39.920
keeps going, repeating over and over
again in slow motion. You know,

1264
01:35:39.960 --> 01:35:44.880
we we we mentioned the comparison when
they built like the fake stage to like

1265
01:35:44.920 --> 01:35:48.319
Ocean's eleven. Can you imagine if
the heist had gone that wrong, right,

1266
01:35:48.920 --> 01:35:53.399
just I mean they'll just right,
they'll just go in a shot,

1267
01:35:54.079 --> 01:36:00.760
right yeah, all yeah, whoopsie, Yeah that was I have We have

1268
01:36:00.920 --> 01:36:06.039
so much audio and get too but
that's okay. Some of this, some

1269
01:36:06.079 --> 01:36:10.560
of this will definitely be rebounding coming
up here. Is there any cuts that

1270
01:36:10.640 --> 01:36:12.800
you pulled that I hadn't played yet
that you're like, oh, you got

1271
01:36:12.920 --> 01:36:20.199
to play it because obviously you you
dubbed in a corrupt Oh the new Something,

1272
01:36:20.239 --> 01:36:24.960
Maybe I should play that? Yeah, I got time. So Gavin

1273
01:36:25.000 --> 01:36:30.000
Knewso who looks like he fell asleep
in a Tanning booth, he had some

1274
01:36:30.039 --> 01:36:32.439
thoughts supposed to Bate. You were
out there getting a chorus of questions about

1275
01:36:32.439 --> 01:36:36.119
whether Biden should step down. There
is a panic that is set in.

1276
01:36:38.039 --> 01:36:41.199
Well, there is panic that has
set in among people who have watched this

1277
01:36:41.239 --> 01:36:44.920
debate, who are Democrats, people
who are strategists, and some even inside

1278
01:36:44.920 --> 01:36:48.279
Democratic campaigns. Do you think it's
unfounded? Well, I think it's unhelpful,

1279
01:36:48.760 --> 01:36:53.159
and I think it's unnecessary. We've
got to go in, got to

1280
01:36:53.239 --> 01:36:56.159
keep our heads high, and as
I say, we've got to have the

1281
01:36:56.199 --> 01:36:59.720
back of this present. You don't
turn your back because of one performance.

1282
01:37:00.239 --> 01:37:02.960
What kind of party does that.
It's been a masterclass. Fifteen point six

1283
01:37:03.000 --> 01:37:08.119
million jobs. That's eight times more
than the last three Republican presidents can buy.

1284
01:37:08.279 --> 01:37:13.000
The only thing to last. By
the way, the job stuff makes

1285
01:37:13.039 --> 01:37:15.760
me so irritated. And Trump did
address it, but it's you know,

1286
01:37:15.800 --> 01:37:19.840
it's rebound stuff. It's in California. That's crazy because we just had the

1287
01:37:19.880 --> 01:37:24.479
story in California with all those jobs
they said they had last year, it

1288
01:37:24.520 --> 01:37:30.479
turned out to not be true and
they were a net loss. So this

1289
01:37:30.520 --> 01:37:32.960
guy, this guy to lie about. Anything Republican presidents have in common is

1290
01:37:33.039 --> 01:37:38.680
recessions. Democrats deliver. This president
is delivered. We need to deliver for

1291
01:37:38.800 --> 01:37:43.000
him at this moment. With all
due respect. The more time we start

1292
01:37:43.119 --> 01:37:46.359
having these conversations go down these rabbit
hole it's unhelpful to our democracy, a

1293
01:37:46.439 --> 01:37:50.159
fate and future of this country the
world. They need us right now to

1294
01:37:50.239 --> 01:37:54.720
step up, and that's exactly what
I intend to do. Yeah, that's

1295
01:37:54.760 --> 01:37:57.720
a dude. By the way,
I still think is jockeying for Kamala's job.

1296
01:37:57.840 --> 01:38:00.840
But the scenarios that they've discuss,
because remember she was a senator,

1297
01:38:02.000 --> 01:38:06.159
nobody wants to backpedal, is putting
her on the Supreme Court. You've heard

1298
01:38:06.199 --> 01:38:10.640
that talk, right, which but
then you have to talk one of the

1299
01:38:10.680 --> 01:38:14.880
Democrats into stepping down on the on
the court or one of the appointees.

1300
01:38:15.760 --> 01:38:21.960
And you know that you saw how
well that worked with Ginsburg. So uh

1301
01:38:23.359 --> 01:38:27.239
yeah, that's rock and hard play
stuff right there. Man. Uh all

1302
01:38:27.359 --> 01:38:30.600
right, I just played this one
more time. I didn't have sex with

1303
01:38:30.680 --> 01:38:35.039
a porn star because I love that
that's in my system right now. And

1304
01:38:35.079 --> 01:38:40.119
then, uh, finally, just
because I was very amused by the golf

1305
01:38:40.159 --> 01:38:45.399
discussion and I demand that this round
of golf take place. That even entered

1306
01:38:45.439 --> 01:38:51.439
into it, well in my computered
a little bit. Look, I'd be

1307
01:38:51.479 --> 01:38:56.079
happy to have a driving contest again. I got my handing. Well,

1308
01:38:56.119 --> 01:38:58.800
whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, you wanted to play a round of

1309
01:38:58.840 --> 01:39:01.920
golf, not a driving contest.
By the way, I'd still watch that,

1310
01:39:02.000 --> 01:39:04.920
but I want to see the whole
thing what he is. Look,

1311
01:39:04.960 --> 01:39:09.079
i'd be happy to have a driving
contesting him. I mean, I got

1312
01:39:09.079 --> 01:39:15.600
my handicap, which one I was
down to a six. And by by

1313
01:39:15.640 --> 01:39:17.159
the way, I told you before, I'm happy to play golf. If

1314
01:39:17.199 --> 01:39:21.199
you carry your own bag, I
think you can do it. That's the

1315
01:39:21.239 --> 01:39:26.359
biggest live And here's the sixth handicap
of all. I was an eight handicap

1316
01:39:27.119 --> 01:39:36.039
eight, but I know this one. I don't know. That's so funny.

1317
01:39:36.079 --> 01:39:39.479
And then he says to Trump,
he goes, see, I'll take

1318
01:39:39.479 --> 01:39:42.600
you on if you if you carry
your own bag. Yeah, he said

1319
01:39:42.600 --> 01:39:45.960
that before too. And I didn't
understand the guy standing on stage looking like

1320
01:39:45.039 --> 01:39:46.399
he's about to drop dead.
