I've known this guy for a long time. 6 00:00:21.039 --> 00:00:24.760 He's the Emmy Award winning creator and producer of Intervention. He is a comedy 7 00:00:24.839 --> 00:00:28.839 stand up comedian. He is also a writer and actor. And he is 8 00:00:28.879 --> 00:00:34.840 a huge political jokie. And I'm calling him my my expert political analyst tonight 9 00:00:34.880 --> 00:00:38.880 because it's after eleven o'clock and I need to laugh. Sam Mettler, how 10 00:00:38.920 --> 00:00:44.520 are you It's eleven o'clock Gary, What are you doing up? I'm trying. 11 00:00:44.640 --> 00:00:47.960 I'm trying to bring home a little cash shoulder, a little bit, 12 00:00:48.439 --> 00:00:54.679 just a little bit for you, for you you were working nice years ago. 13 00:00:55.960 --> 00:00:58.159 Yeah that was a long time ago, kid, long time ago. 14 00:00:58.359 --> 00:01:00.920 Well, well I was. I was thinking about your time, you know, 15 00:01:02.039 --> 00:01:07.480 back in the zone, when you were working nights on Washington Street. 16 00:01:07.760 --> 00:01:14.120 Uh, never mind, okay, the zone, Sam, that's even before 17 00:01:14.239 --> 00:01:17.920 my time. Believe me, if I was working, then I'd still be 18 00:01:18.000 --> 00:01:23.280 homeless. Sam Betler, how's it going on? You know what it's going 19 00:01:23.319 --> 00:01:26.159 on. It's going all right, it's going all right. The world is 20 00:01:26.200 --> 00:01:29.120 falling apart. But you know, okay, so here, here we go, 21 00:01:29.200 --> 00:01:32.719 let's get to it. Sam, how do you feel right now about 22 00:01:32.719 --> 00:01:37.959 our society? Society? Well, it was funny. The guy a couple 23 00:01:37.959 --> 00:01:42.760 of dollars ago said that he thought that Joe had the mojoe to keep going 24 00:01:44.439 --> 00:01:48.319 right, which I thought was hilarious. Yeah, because I did not see 25 00:01:48.359 --> 00:01:53.640 that at all. Yes, if moe stands for loss of motor skills, 26 00:01:53.959 --> 00:01:57.120 yes, perhaps. I don't know. If you heard his speech tonight, 27 00:01:57.200 --> 00:01:59.879 Gary, Yeah, well I did. We had it here alive on WBZ. 28 00:02:00.159 --> 00:02:02.879 Oh my, it wasn't good. Well you know what it no, 29 00:02:02.959 --> 00:02:07.920 Sammy, you know what it was. It just reinforced that he made the 30 00:02:07.959 --> 00:02:15.479 right decision. You know, he sounds like a guy after a big Pats 31 00:02:15.560 --> 00:02:21.199 game, after like a few beers, and he's been shouting the whole game, 32 00:02:22.000 --> 00:02:27.560 and now his voice is this, and he's he an't quite pronounced thing. 33 00:02:29.439 --> 00:02:34.039 He's got that delivery now where he tries to the low the soda voice, 34 00:02:34.719 --> 00:02:39.080 you know, the low voice with the with the punchline like mister cook 35 00:02:39.159 --> 00:02:44.639 my shop teacher who who was the driver, said guy back at Newton South 36 00:02:44.719 --> 00:02:49.479 High School who had like three good fingers, you know, and each one 37 00:02:49.520 --> 00:02:53.520 of them had the blood, you know, bruise underneath the fingernail. And 38 00:02:53.599 --> 00:03:00.159 he's say, Sammy, the Pats are gonna win the Super Bowl. Yeah, 39 00:03:00.199 --> 00:03:04.439 yeah, of course nineteen eighty four. Yeah yeah, right right, 40 00:03:04.680 --> 00:03:08.080 yeah, yeah, not gonna happen. It's it's and the plastic surgery makes 41 00:03:08.080 --> 00:03:13.319 it look even worse now when you oh god, oh it's terrible, terrible, 42 00:03:13.360 --> 00:03:17.159 and I know Trump's had it, but it bides as awful. It 43 00:03:17.479 --> 00:03:23.159 ain't good. It's you know, it's really really tight. So the eyes 44 00:03:24.439 --> 00:03:28.879 he can't blink, Kenny, No, I mean it's like even Courtney Cox 45 00:03:29.039 --> 00:03:30.680 said, look, I shouldn't have got it as she went overboard with it, 46 00:03:31.039 --> 00:03:35.879 totally went overboard. I mean that's why people said, people said during 47 00:03:35.919 --> 00:03:38.000 the debate he was lost. No, his face was just so tight he 48 00:03:38.039 --> 00:03:43.719 couldn't smile, Yes, yes, I mean, and the mouth was a 49 00:03:43.800 --> 00:03:49.719 gape, which is a terrible look. You know what he reminds me of 50 00:03:49.919 --> 00:03:53.439 it's terrible to say because he's a good human being. This guy, right, 51 00:03:53.520 --> 00:04:01.000 absolutely a really good person. And he reminds me of Grandpa, you 52 00:04:01.039 --> 00:04:05.080 know, at home and somebody says we're having company, what do you do 53 00:04:05.159 --> 00:04:10.680 with bop? You know? Right? Right, that's the problem. I'm 54 00:04:10.719 --> 00:04:15.839 in the garage now. Now do you think if he had bailed earlier it 55 00:04:15.879 --> 00:04:20.680 would have been better? Or do you think it's better now for Harris that 56 00:04:20.720 --> 00:04:25.160 she doesn't have as much, She doesn't have as long a time to mess 57 00:04:25.199 --> 00:04:29.279 up because I think brevity is next to godliness now because of the news cycle. 58 00:04:30.519 --> 00:04:34.680 Well, you know what the problem is, you still need to gear 59 00:04:34.759 --> 00:04:40.519 up a campaign, right, And even though yes, absolutely, how come 60 00:04:40.600 --> 00:04:43.839 because I don't know, man, I mean this this rap thing on TikTok 61 00:04:43.879 --> 00:04:47.240 may get her elected so much as small ball, You've got to go to 62 00:04:47.279 --> 00:04:54.360 the states. You got to gear up your campaign in you know, especially 63 00:04:55.360 --> 00:05:01.160 you know the swing states. Right, Mobilization is a big deal, and 64 00:05:01.560 --> 00:05:05.920 it's it is it is handshaking, and it is going out and and and 65 00:05:05.680 --> 00:05:12.879 and doing you know, a local politics. And I think that's I think 66 00:05:12.920 --> 00:05:16.720 that's very very tough in the lake. Well, the back of your point 67 00:05:16.759 --> 00:05:21.680 stats do show that of all the money that spent, it does not have 68 00:05:21.720 --> 00:05:28.160 the effect that door to door shaking somebody's hand at a diner does retail retail 69 00:05:28.240 --> 00:05:30.959 politics, my friend, you know, that's why Hillary when she didn't go 70 00:05:31.000 --> 00:05:38.600 to Wisconsin. Really that was the presidency right there, and she was not 71 00:05:38.720 --> 00:05:43.720 good at that. She was not good at that now I remember, Yeah, 72 00:05:43.759 --> 00:05:49.279 she was terrible at that. I remember there was a column written and 73 00:05:49.319 --> 00:05:54.040 she was on the bus. She got off the bus, she went inside 74 00:05:54.120 --> 00:05:57.560 to I don't know what, at whatever restaurant it was something to go place, 75 00:05:57.560 --> 00:06:00.439 and got a salad, didn't say anything to the people, got back 76 00:06:00.480 --> 00:06:03.800 and just literally got back on the bus and like went to work. And 77 00:06:03.839 --> 00:06:08.959 the point was made by someone in the press who was following her that her 78 00:06:09.120 --> 00:06:15.040 husband, Bill would have had the salad in the restaurant, would have known 79 00:06:15.160 --> 00:06:17.360 everybody's name. He may have hit on a cook or two, but hey, 80 00:06:17.399 --> 00:06:23.040 who knows the economy was good, and then then he would then he 81 00:06:23.079 --> 00:06:25.879 would have known, he would have known everybody's name by the time he left. 82 00:06:26.040 --> 00:06:30.800 Yep, yeah, you have to get the hook out to stop Bill 83 00:06:30.839 --> 00:06:33.279 Clinton from talking to people, right right, I mean, you have to 84 00:06:33.360 --> 00:06:41.240 extricate him right, because he loves that. He loves politics. That's why. 85 00:06:41.319 --> 00:06:44.199 I mean when you talk about a guy who no one I mean I 86 00:06:44.240 --> 00:06:48.199 remember, no one knew who the hell he was. No No, I 87 00:06:48.240 --> 00:06:51.560 mean it really, you know, unbelievable, which is, you know, 88 00:06:51.639 --> 00:06:57.040 shows how much you know bush One was was disliked as well. I mean 89 00:06:57.160 --> 00:07:00.759 it was very it's very unusual. I still think that didn't want to win. 90 00:07:00.759 --> 00:07:03.399 I kind of feel like, I really I think he was like, 91 00:07:03.600 --> 00:07:06.279 I'm good, I got one term I wanted. Hey, I remember that 92 00:07:06.399 --> 00:07:10.279 campaign, and I just thought, man, he just does not seem to 93 00:07:10.279 --> 00:07:13.839 be into it. Like when you lost. I thought he ran the kinnebunk 94 00:07:13.879 --> 00:07:17.639 Port. Yeah, pretty much, you know. I mean really he just 95 00:07:17.639 --> 00:07:21.439 didn't seem to I A, it's just me. It's just my thought on 96 00:07:21.519 --> 00:07:27.160 that. Yeah. But I mean I blame I really blame the people around 97 00:07:27.199 --> 00:07:31.839 Biden who basically covered up, oh the disaster his I mean, how do 98 00:07:31.879 --> 00:07:36.480 you do that about the doctor business? How many doctor business? You know? 99 00:07:36.560 --> 00:07:40.279 That didn't look great. But I do have a comment. I do 100 00:07:40.360 --> 00:07:43.120 have something to say in defensive body. Sam. That's coming up next. 101 00:07:43.120 --> 00:07:46.360 Sam Medler's our guest talking politics, Sam's a writer, Emmy Award winning producer 102 00:07:46.399 --> 00:07:51.199 and comedian. He joins us from the left coast right here on WBC's Night 103 00:07:51.240 --> 00:07:56.399 Side. And again, one thing I think you have to just say, 104 00:07:56.480 --> 00:08:01.439 Okay, Joe, I get it. That's next. Now back to Dan 105 00:08:01.560 --> 00:08:07.319 Ray live from the Window World night Side Studios on WBZ News Radio. My 106 00:08:07.439 --> 00:08:11.120 Gary Tank way for Dan right tonight. Dan's going to be back tomorrow evening 107 00:08:11.920 --> 00:08:15.879 President Biden saying so long taking his victory lap tonight, had that earlier here 108 00:08:15.920 --> 00:08:20.839 on WBZ and basically been talking about politics and polic every sense of joining us 109 00:08:20.279 --> 00:08:26.519 my buddy Sam Metler, comedian, writer, Emmy Awooe winning producer. One 110 00:08:26.519 --> 00:08:33.159 of the things that I understand Sam with President Biden is it's tough for a 111 00:08:33.200 --> 00:08:37.840 guy to quit, you know, and I kind of want. I'm kind 112 00:08:37.879 --> 00:08:41.519 of glad in hindsight that he went kicking and screaming. I don't know if 113 00:08:41.519 --> 00:08:46.360 it mattered, but you know, the debate was so bad, and at 114 00:08:46.399 --> 00:08:50.120 first I was being critical of the first lady, what are you doing bringing 115 00:08:50.159 --> 00:08:52.320 him up there? What are you doing encouraging him? But like it was 116 00:08:52.360 --> 00:08:56.919 his life, he spent over fifty years doing it and he certainly could have 117 00:08:56.919 --> 00:09:00.919 made more money in the private sector, so how can we expect anything else. 118 00:09:00.960 --> 00:09:03.279 But Biden did pretty much go kicking and screaming to the end. And 119 00:09:03.320 --> 00:09:09.320 if he didn't get COVID, I'm not so sure he quits. You know 120 00:09:09.399 --> 00:09:15.720 what it's it's terrible. You got to take the car keys sometimes from gramps. 121 00:09:15.919 --> 00:09:18.600 Oh yeah, right, that's what happened. That's exactly what happened. 122 00:09:20.279 --> 00:09:24.960 And you know, I created the show Intervention on A and E Monday nights. 123 00:09:24.960 --> 00:09:30.559 Everybody, and you know, we've been on for about twenty years. 124 00:09:30.600 --> 00:09:37.200 But I've seen this so often where people get dug in because they cannot see 125 00:09:37.240 --> 00:09:41.399 what everybody else sees, right, right, I mean, that's that's that's 126 00:09:41.440 --> 00:09:48.120 the big thing. I mean, I've had parents last month, three car 127 00:09:48.159 --> 00:09:54.080 accidents between the two of them, and we're going to have to sit down 128 00:09:54.200 --> 00:09:58.919 and go hmm. And luckily they do well, so you know they can 129 00:09:58.080 --> 00:10:03.159 get a driver. I mean, this is this is a lot bigger than 130 00:10:03.200 --> 00:10:07.519 that, right, This is driving my dad to you know, crack a 131 00:10:07.559 --> 00:10:13.440 barrel. This is this is about driving the country. And first of all, 132 00:10:13.559 --> 00:10:16.240 your dad has never been a cracker barrel in his life. But go 133 00:10:16.240 --> 00:10:22.120 ahead. That's that's true. Why I'm trying to play down home? Yeah 134 00:10:22.840 --> 00:10:28.440 yeah, but Nate, now play to the people. Yes, I'm trying 135 00:10:28.440 --> 00:10:33.600 to play to the people. I'm one of you. Uh yeah, I 136 00:10:33.639 --> 00:10:39.320 mean this was the kicking a scream. I disagree with you. I disagree 137 00:10:39.360 --> 00:10:43.080 with you. I think, I mean, I think everybody has to know 138 00:10:43.279 --> 00:10:46.799 when they don't have their fastball anymore, they don't mean Seinfeld, they just 139 00:10:46.840 --> 00:10:52.720 don't Sam It's against human nature. I understand that it was up to everyone 140 00:10:52.919 --> 00:11:00.240 around him that I agree with to push this. Well before I got with 141 00:11:00.279 --> 00:11:03.879 you on that, I mean, let off stage, he wandered up. 142 00:11:03.960 --> 00:11:09.320 And then you hear, like Chuck Todd an NBC say that he two years 143 00:11:09.360 --> 00:11:15.879 ago heard from a cabinet member that there's no way he can or should run 144 00:11:15.919 --> 00:11:20.639 again. Right, well, nobody reported well also, well, yeah, 145 00:11:20.720 --> 00:11:24.480 I mean that that's that's plain wrong. But then you know, you hear 146 00:11:24.519 --> 00:11:28.519 the rumors that missus Biden wanted him to run again, and if she had 147 00:11:28.679 --> 00:11:31.440 said he should run again, or if Trump wasn't running again, he wouldn't 148 00:11:31.480 --> 00:11:35.960 have gone. But the party should have been more assertive early on. To 149 00:11:35.080 --> 00:11:41.159 me, I felt the Democratic Party wasn't confident enough and wasn't proactive enough to 150 00:11:41.200 --> 00:11:46.000 have somebody ready to go. I think they get caught. They get caught 151 00:11:46.000 --> 00:11:54.919 with their past. I think that they thought they could keep up the charade 152 00:11:56.159 --> 00:12:03.039 of him being in control of all his facts. Yeah, because the options 153 00:12:03.279 --> 00:12:09.559 were not there, and it wasn't till it was so so obvious, like 154 00:12:09.600 --> 00:12:13.960 a mule kick to the head of America. Watching him in that debate, 155 00:12:15.320 --> 00:12:20.720 did everyon go, Holy caw, this is this is really really, really 156 00:12:20.720 --> 00:12:24.519 bad. I mean, because the other guy just speaks in circles and lies 157 00:12:24.679 --> 00:12:26.919 and you know, nobody even paid attention to him because Biden was so bad. 158 00:12:28.879 --> 00:12:31.519 Yeah, but you know what I mean. I listen, I'm not 159 00:12:31.559 --> 00:12:37.679 a Trump fan by any stretch of the imagination. Right, he doesn't look 160 00:12:37.759 --> 00:12:41.519 feeble, No, he looks great. Here's the thing and if Sammy, 161 00:12:41.679 --> 00:12:45.600 here's the thing with Trump, if he had he would have got re elected, 162 00:12:46.399 --> 00:12:52.200 if he just basically shut up or didn't say anything stupid or didn't I 163 00:12:52.200 --> 00:12:56.919 mean, if he had just continued to like play the role of president, 164 00:12:56.279 --> 00:13:03.720 he would have gone another four years. He's the bad boy who likes attention 165 00:13:03.960 --> 00:13:07.840 by being the bad boy, right, and that killed him. That killed 166 00:13:07.879 --> 00:13:11.039 him all he had to do. But you're right, he looks good. 167 00:13:11.240 --> 00:13:13.080 His hair is fine. I mean, he doesn't look his age. He 168 00:13:13.159 --> 00:13:18.080 speaks well. Whatever he says, as wrong as it is, he says 169 00:13:18.120 --> 00:13:22.960 with conviction. Then how badass was he in that assassination attempt? For coming? 170 00:13:24.039 --> 00:13:26.080 My god, are you kidding? I mean, terrible, tragic, 171 00:13:26.120 --> 00:13:30.120 But yeah, he raises his fist. As soon as he raised his fists, 172 00:13:30.159 --> 00:13:33.679 I was like, Okay, he's going to win. He's gonna wines 173 00:13:35.279 --> 00:13:39.480 Gary. I would have been in the fetal position. They would have been 174 00:13:39.480 --> 00:13:43.200 carrying me out. In the fetal position. My pants would not have looked 175 00:13:43.279 --> 00:13:50.799 dry. Be worried about his shoes. Screw the shoes. Somebody get me 176 00:13:50.799 --> 00:13:52.919 out of here. Well, the thing about Trump is, from what I 177 00:13:52.960 --> 00:13:54.840 know of people that have dealt with him in New York, you know, 178 00:13:54.879 --> 00:14:01.639 Trump's always been a fighter because while he acts like the bull in all honesty, 179 00:14:01.799 --> 00:14:05.279 early on he was bullied. I mean you probably know this. He 180 00:14:05.399 --> 00:14:09.000 was never considered as part of the in crowd of the New York elite. 181 00:14:09.159 --> 00:14:13.399 As a matter of fact, they really were embarrassed by him. Of course 182 00:14:13.480 --> 00:14:20.240 they were. He's on the cover of People magazine every other week doing something 183 00:14:20.360 --> 00:14:22.519 naughty, right, Well, you know for then, you know when he 184 00:14:22.600 --> 00:14:26.440 started to because he makes some of his dad's money and he was never on 185 00:14:26.480 --> 00:14:33.240 the in crowd. Yes, no, no, and and it's it's like 186 00:14:33.480 --> 00:14:37.200 the it's sort of like the runt of the litter that has to prove himself 187 00:14:37.399 --> 00:14:41.480 over and over. And that's why he relates to this constituency because this constituency 188 00:14:41.519 --> 00:14:46.320 that is here, they have felt unheard, they have felt unloved, and 189 00:14:46.360 --> 00:14:48.639 so did he. Well, they're not wrong, by the way, of 190 00:14:48.679 --> 00:14:52.200 course, they're not wrong, because look, the problem the Democrats have made 191 00:14:52.279 --> 00:14:58.480 is they have ignored the moderates. They've ignored the middle. Yep, no 192 00:14:58.639 --> 00:15:01.559 question. Yeah, I'm a moderate. I can't stand either side on neither 193 00:15:01.600 --> 00:15:05.679 can I. I'm down the middle too. I'm like, pay your bills, 194 00:15:05.000 --> 00:15:09.399 but you know if you want to. You know, I'm all for 195 00:15:09.519 --> 00:15:13.799 civil civil liberties. I don't care who gets married. I don't care who 196 00:15:13.840 --> 00:15:16.159 goes out with you. I don't care. You know, it's your body 197 00:15:16.159 --> 00:15:22.000 and all that. Let's just not go broke. Yes, yes, I 198 00:15:22.039 --> 00:15:26.480 mean I my preferred pronoun is that. Yes, but you're that But you're 199 00:15:26.559 --> 00:15:31.960 but yeah, but you're very it's that as in, uh, look at 200 00:15:31.960 --> 00:15:35.519 that, look at that? So so okay, but let's talk about that. 201 00:15:35.679 --> 00:15:39.879 Let's talk about the appeal here because you are a writer, your producer, 202 00:15:39.399 --> 00:15:43.919 you know talent, you know the TV show, right, because that's 203 00:15:43.960 --> 00:15:48.320 what it is now. It's a TV show. Sure, it always has 204 00:15:48.399 --> 00:15:52.399 been, by the way, since it's Kennedy, Kennedy and Nixon. Yeah, 205 00:15:52.480 --> 00:15:56.840 yeah, Kennedy and Nixon. But now the TV show changes every twenty 206 00:15:56.879 --> 00:16:03.279 seconds. Do you think TikTok and the brat movement and the youth who weren't 207 00:16:03.320 --> 00:16:08.799 even part of the picture before Kamala became involved will have an impact on the 208 00:16:08.840 --> 00:16:15.000 election? They don't vote as much, scary, but will they because of 209 00:16:15.039 --> 00:16:19.039 her? But will they? Now? Will they? Will it become cool 210 00:16:19.120 --> 00:16:29.440 to vote? Never? Sorry, I don't know. Politics are not Politics 211 00:16:29.480 --> 00:16:34.840 are not cool. They're just not you know. I mean, kids are 212 00:16:34.879 --> 00:16:45.159 always kids and they frankly, I don't care as much because you know, 213 00:16:45.000 --> 00:16:52.279 kids are still about themselves. You know. The the is it's the cerebral 214 00:16:52.279 --> 00:17:03.240 cortex or the frontal cortex that hasn't been completely hasn't been developed. I still 215 00:17:03.240 --> 00:17:08.160 have the soft spot on the back of my head. Year. Yeah, 216 00:17:08.680 --> 00:17:17.799 they they don't. I mean, yes, they will protest because that's cool, 217 00:17:18.279 --> 00:17:23.880 right, and and it is it is culling clout right to put something 218 00:17:23.880 --> 00:17:30.680 on TikTok, but to actually go and vote and to know exactly what's going 219 00:17:30.720 --> 00:17:33.720 on, they don't. Well, you don't have to know what's going on 220 00:17:33.759 --> 00:17:34.680 to vote. And by the way, I don't think you have to be 221 00:17:34.720 --> 00:17:38.079 young to not know what's going on. Yeah, because listen, I don't 222 00:17:38.079 --> 00:17:44.119 know. We had Dave Paliologos, who is from from Soft Compulsory. He 223 00:17:44.119 --> 00:17:45.519 goes, no, people vote with emotion. They don't vote on topics. 224 00:17:45.640 --> 00:17:48.759 Yeah, they they want emotion, they totally do. But yes, but 225 00:17:48.799 --> 00:17:53.519 I but here's my thing is they can you can vote now by mail? 226 00:17:55.079 --> 00:17:57.279 I mean if you could vote on TikTok, I mean Harris would be in. 227 00:17:57.599 --> 00:18:03.240 But I think you can vote by mail if there becomes a youth movement. 228 00:18:03.279 --> 00:18:07.960 I'm just keeping an eye on it. That's all because over the last 229 00:18:07.039 --> 00:18:12.759 four years, or last eight years for that matter, we have seen first 230 00:18:14.279 --> 00:18:19.599 things have happened that have never happened before. Right, So I disagree with 231 00:18:19.640 --> 00:18:22.480 that, but go ahead, tell me what's happened. That's never happened before. 232 00:18:22.519 --> 00:18:26.200 Well, I mean, okay, you could say Reagan got elected, 233 00:18:26.440 --> 00:18:30.960 but Trump got elected. Trump got elected. They tried to overthrow the government 234 00:18:32.759 --> 00:18:34.920 and the president stood by. I mean, and now you have a guy 235 00:18:36.000 --> 00:18:38.240 that bails out after he's running and you got to put in the vice president. 236 00:18:38.240 --> 00:18:41.319 I mean, maybe we have to go back to the eighteen hundreds. 237 00:18:41.680 --> 00:18:48.759 But I mean COVID right, I yeah, I can't recall of a president 238 00:18:48.039 --> 00:18:55.920 mid candidacy. I'm dropping out. I mean, yeah, I can't. 239 00:18:55.960 --> 00:18:57.000 I can't, I can't. I mean, of course, we've had one 240 00:18:57.079 --> 00:19:00.240 term presidence that yeah, I share. Yeah, that's you know, joh 241 00:19:02.200 --> 00:19:04.440 one term, yeah, yeah. I mean, I mean it's a reality 242 00:19:04.519 --> 00:19:07.400 it's a reality show more than ever. I mean, Sam, I understand 243 00:19:07.400 --> 00:19:11.799 what you're saying. But at least like Kennedy or Nixon or Clinton, who 244 00:19:11.839 --> 00:19:17.279 we talked about. These guys were great television politicians, not Nixon, but 245 00:19:17.319 --> 00:19:21.079 I mean Kennedy. But they but they want to they want a reality show 246 00:19:21.119 --> 00:19:25.680 host. I mean Trump doesn't. I mean, look, people, there 247 00:19:25.680 --> 00:19:30.039 are certain sections that they love him, and he is connected and he knows 248 00:19:30.119 --> 00:19:33.880 what he's doing by not knowing what he's doing, but does he really understand 249 00:19:34.000 --> 00:19:37.279 policy, does he really? I mean he just kind of gives his opinion 250 00:19:37.319 --> 00:19:41.440 and says, let him pay for it. Put up the wall. Yeah, 251 00:19:41.519 --> 00:19:44.000 I don't know, he's a policy I don't think he would be called 252 00:19:44.039 --> 00:19:47.319 a wonk. No, Gary, No, that's my point. So it's 253 00:19:47.400 --> 00:19:51.640 like in terms of things that have never happened before, Garrett. You know, 254 00:19:51.759 --> 00:19:56.559 remember we had a civil war, So I mean what happened in DC. 255 00:19:56.039 --> 00:20:00.359 No, But I mean, like what happened in d C was awful, 256 00:20:00.920 --> 00:20:04.519 awful, awful, right, but it's not a civil war. Right. 257 00:20:06.720 --> 00:20:10.519 The people don't talk about this, and I'm not going to make them 258 00:20:11.039 --> 00:20:15.880 equivalent, but I mean you had in Seattle, you had you know, 259 00:20:15.920 --> 00:20:22.440 the far left taking over city blocks, common bearing sections of the city and 260 00:20:22.480 --> 00:20:27.519 saying it's ours now. Right in Portland you had people burning down a courthouse. 261 00:20:27.799 --> 00:20:34.160 Right. You have people in the United States actually rooting for a terrorist 262 00:20:34.279 --> 00:20:40.640 organization, right, I mean not just pro Palestinian, but pro Hamas. 263 00:20:41.160 --> 00:20:48.480 And there is a difference, absolutely, absolutely, I mean, and and 264 00:20:49.279 --> 00:20:53.960 we we've had, I mean, our our history, all of history is 265 00:20:55.119 --> 00:21:02.640 loaded with strife and war and awful things, and we happen to have you 266 00:21:02.680 --> 00:21:06.279 know, since you know, Vietnam ended, you know, all the way 267 00:21:06.359 --> 00:21:14.799 up to the Gulf War. I mean a tremendous amount of peace and years 268 00:21:14.839 --> 00:21:19.640 and years of peace and not a ton of strife. And that's more unusual 269 00:21:21.359 --> 00:21:26.319 than, you know, than the rest of history of having you know, 270 00:21:26.400 --> 00:21:29.519 awfulness point. We'll take it. Sam Metler's our guess. We have to 271 00:21:29.519 --> 00:21:30.599 take a break, going to get a news update here on the bottom of 272 00:21:30.599 --> 00:21:34.599 the hour. Get back into it. Find out who's gonna win, uh 273 00:21:34.759 --> 00:21:38.480 Trump or just Harris? If a shot? Will the TikTok generation do it? 274 00:21:38.599 --> 00:21:44.920 More? Coming up on WBC's Night Side, Don't go away. It's 275 00:21:45.039 --> 00:21:49.480 Night Side with Dan Ray on WBZ Boston's news radio Bhi, Dan, Thank 276 00:21:49.519 --> 00:21:53.640 you very much. Gary tangling for Dan Ray Tonight's and joining us is a 277 00:21:53.759 --> 00:21:59.920 Sam Metler I mean, award winning producer of Intervention, comedian and writer talk 278 00:22:00.079 --> 00:22:03.720 in the little politics here. Okay, Sammy, here's the thing. I'm 279 00:22:03.720 --> 00:22:07.519 gonna give you a chance to play campaign manager for both candidates. Let's start 280 00:22:07.559 --> 00:22:11.799 with Trump. You're in charge now, He's not gonna listen to anything you 281 00:22:11.839 --> 00:22:18.240 say. But what would you tell Donald Trump if you were running his campaign? 282 00:22:19.039 --> 00:22:26.680 Shut up? Yeah, I mean, you know what I just saw 283 00:22:26.720 --> 00:22:30.119 an ad oh a stand up comedian. Shoot you may know her. He 284 00:22:30.440 --> 00:22:33.680 yeah, you actually may know her. But but the line she just said 285 00:22:33.839 --> 00:22:40.559 was, guys, if you want to get lucky, this is what you 286 00:22:40.640 --> 00:22:45.319 do. You say, I really enjoyed this evening. I'm so glad I 287 00:22:45.400 --> 00:22:49.440 met you. I'm having a wonderful time. And just shut up for the 288 00:22:49.480 --> 00:22:55.680 rest of your life, she said, Gary, Gary Sales, Sales is 289 00:22:56.960 --> 00:23:03.680 shut up. Yeah, oh yeah, And I mean he he comes off 290 00:23:03.759 --> 00:23:07.599 an assassination attempt with his fist in the air, with the American flag behind 291 00:23:07.680 --> 00:23:15.200 him. Then he starts off and the convention was an outstanding convention. They 292 00:23:15.359 --> 00:23:21.119 really ran an outstanding convention. It was flawless. He gets up, I 293 00:23:21.200 --> 00:23:29.519 want to be president for everyone, and then and help himself. He cannot 294 00:23:29.559 --> 00:23:33.799 help himself. They said, don't mention Biden. He shouldn't have mentioned him. 295 00:23:34.039 --> 00:23:41.599 He should. I mean, he was riding this wave of badassory and 296 00:23:41.640 --> 00:23:48.279 he can't help being mean, and he can't help being hyperbolic and lying, 297 00:23:48.640 --> 00:23:56.599 and it's just it's like when he first was elected in twenty twenty, everyone 298 00:23:56.720 --> 00:23:59.000 said, well, you know he's going to be elected, and then he'll 299 00:23:59.039 --> 00:24:03.599 take the turn to be come presidential. And then in that inauguration speech, 300 00:24:03.880 --> 00:24:14.240 it was the worst. It was pugnacious, it was isolationist. I mean, 301 00:24:14.359 --> 00:24:18.680 the fact that this guy doesn't believe in NATO is to me terrifying. 302 00:24:19.559 --> 00:24:22.839 You got to pay for it, pay for it? Yeah, well, 303 00:24:23.240 --> 00:24:27.079 listen, I understand that by the way. I understand that by the way, 304 00:24:27.279 --> 00:24:33.319 right that that that we don't get as much as we give. Right, 305 00:24:33.480 --> 00:24:34.839 but you, but if you're going to be a world power, that's 306 00:24:34.880 --> 00:24:41.039 the way it goes. The exchange is that's your chip exactly. And Gary, 307 00:24:41.200 --> 00:24:48.240 you know, when you go into a high class restaurant or a show 308 00:24:48.400 --> 00:24:52.720 and you want a good table, you grease a palm. And that's what 309 00:24:52.920 --> 00:24:59.119 America does, and we do it rather well. And from from that we 310 00:24:59.200 --> 00:25:03.400 are supposed to get, you know, a certain amount of loyalty when God 311 00:25:03.480 --> 00:25:07.759 forbid, you've got you know, bad actors in this world, right that 312 00:25:07.880 --> 00:25:11.119 you've got a team behind you. An attack against one of us as an 313 00:25:11.119 --> 00:25:15.799 attack against all of us, right, And I hate the isolationism. It 314 00:25:15.880 --> 00:25:22.960 drives me nuts me too, right, you know, absolutely not that I 315 00:25:22.000 --> 00:25:29.599 think Kamala is going to be a diplomatic genius, right, I mean she 316 00:25:29.640 --> 00:25:33.160 hasn't done it. Sure, Sure, I mean, listen, there are 317 00:25:33.240 --> 00:25:40.359 plenty of governors who haven't had, you know, world affair type experience and 318 00:25:40.599 --> 00:25:45.920 have done a hell of a job at that CEO of the country. And 319 00:25:45.000 --> 00:25:48.759 I think a lot of people look at it as being a CEO, and 320 00:25:48.799 --> 00:25:55.119 Donald, you know, being a CEO is the good fit. I just 321 00:25:55.200 --> 00:26:00.039 don't think he is necessarily a great boss. I don't, you know, 322 00:26:00.599 --> 00:26:08.000 I think that he is again too childish, too angry, you know, 323 00:26:08.039 --> 00:26:14.240 I don't think. I mean people people actually believe he's got a political and 324 00:26:14.359 --> 00:26:18.559 moral compass. He doesn't. You know, they keep they keep talking about 325 00:26:18.680 --> 00:26:23.559 they keep talking about Project twenty twenty five. Do you think do you think 326 00:26:23.559 --> 00:26:27.640 Trump? Trump cares about Project twenty twenty five, about you care about anybody? 327 00:26:29.039 --> 00:26:30.960 Yes, he does. He's not a policy guy. I got to 328 00:26:32.000 --> 00:26:36.440 tell you, though, His foreign policy was better than Obama and better than 329 00:26:36.440 --> 00:26:44.079 Biden's, right, because the one thing he has right is he's tough, 330 00:26:45.359 --> 00:26:48.240 right, and I think you need a certain amount of toughness, right. 331 00:26:48.799 --> 00:26:52.519 Yeah, I don't know if you ever heard what he the head of the 332 00:26:52.559 --> 00:26:57.119 Taliban, you know what he had told him about the Afghanistan withdrawal, because 333 00:26:57.119 --> 00:27:02.759 Trump told the head of the Taliban that we were going to withdraw from Afghanistan. 334 00:27:03.480 --> 00:27:07.519 And you know this is according to reports, you know, not just 335 00:27:07.759 --> 00:27:14.440 right wing reports, but you know actual news reports that that he basically said, 336 00:27:14.480 --> 00:27:18.119 I'm gonna I'm getting out of there. If you touch a hair in 337 00:27:18.160 --> 00:27:21.720 the head of any of my guys or any of my equipment, you got 338 00:27:21.759 --> 00:27:27.240 problems. And he gave the guy a a satellite picture of his house that 339 00:27:27.359 --> 00:27:30.599 you could see people in the yard. Right, he goes, we know 340 00:27:30.640 --> 00:27:34.640 where you live, right, and the and the and the the guy did 341 00:27:34.680 --> 00:27:41.400 he called him your excellency right right, no, And and you know Biden 342 00:27:41.680 --> 00:27:47.319 was just softer, right, I mean, I would love to have you 343 00:27:47.359 --> 00:27:52.960 know, uh, you know, a a Mitt Romney, someone who is 344 00:27:53.119 --> 00:27:57.960 moderate, who is common sense but is also sharp and tough. Right. 345 00:27:59.559 --> 00:28:02.960 I mean, no voter, I will tell you right now, I voted 346 00:28:02.960 --> 00:28:07.000 for Romney, yep. And then I voted for Obama the second time around. 347 00:28:07.079 --> 00:28:11.000 But the first time I voted for Romney. The only Republican to stand 348 00:28:11.079 --> 00:28:18.200 up and applaud Katanji Brown Jackson for being the first black woman justice was Romney. 349 00:28:19.079 --> 00:28:22.759 Right, he's a good man. He's not he's a good man. 350 00:28:23.440 --> 00:28:27.000 Yes, you know, I mean McCain. McCain was a good man. 351 00:28:27.279 --> 00:28:30.720 I mean, yeah, it was a little crazy, well yeah, but 352 00:28:30.759 --> 00:28:34.279 I mean, god, I mean, but he's a good man. I 353 00:28:34.279 --> 00:28:41.920 mean, if you're tortured for years, it's okay, it's okay. You 354 00:28:41.960 --> 00:28:45.720 know, I think it might have an effect on your mental health a little 355 00:28:45.720 --> 00:28:48.279 bit. Yeah, But like I mean that John McCain was a hell of 356 00:28:48.319 --> 00:28:51.559 a hell of a leader. Yeah, I mean, of course, I 357 00:28:51.559 --> 00:28:53.960 mean but but that's the thing is that, you know, when you take 358 00:28:53.960 --> 00:28:56.720 a look at the Supreme Court, I mean, Trump wants to be king. 359 00:28:57.359 --> 00:29:03.319 That's my you know, that's the thing again. I thought about voting 360 00:29:03.359 --> 00:29:07.480 for Trump when he first when he was running against Hillary. I went, 361 00:29:07.000 --> 00:29:11.119 I was open to it, you know. And then but then boy Twitter, 362 00:29:11.319 --> 00:29:15.240 then he gets on Twitter, and then you know, January sixth, 363 00:29:15.319 --> 00:29:18.839 and I just keep going back to January sixth, where people died, you 364 00:29:18.880 --> 00:29:25.319 know, people died, and he stood by and did nothing. And that, 365 00:29:25.480 --> 00:29:29.680 to me, that's that just wipes everything out. I understand about the 366 00:29:29.720 --> 00:29:33.720 economy, I understand about some things. You said. People text and they 367 00:29:33.720 --> 00:29:37.799 call the show and they think I hate Trump. January sixth is the reason 368 00:29:37.839 --> 00:29:41.119 I hate him, and I shouldn't even say hates a strong word. January 369 00:29:41.119 --> 00:29:45.119 sixth is the reason why I can't vote for him. That's it, That's 370 00:29:45.160 --> 00:29:48.960 it. I mean, Gary, he wanted to go back to the capital, 371 00:29:49.319 --> 00:29:53.319 I know, all the insurrection was happening and lead them I know, 372 00:29:55.039 --> 00:29:59.640 and the Secret Service said hold on, yeah, I mean he grabbed his 373 00:29:59.720 --> 00:30:03.319 dry. I mean, he wanted to be taken over there. I mean, 374 00:30:04.240 --> 00:30:08.960 he would not disavow, he would not dissuade. He didn't. I 375 00:30:08.960 --> 00:30:14.440 mean he was watching it on TV and everyone's begging him to say something and 376 00:30:14.519 --> 00:30:18.920 do something and tell him to stop right and in guards and people are people 377 00:30:18.960 --> 00:30:22.920 are dying, I mean people that people You're attack. Your vice president is 378 00:30:23.000 --> 00:30:27.079 under attack, Yeah, you know, I mean what else? I mean 379 00:30:27.119 --> 00:30:30.680 that's the thing. And then the Republican Party is just so afraid of him, 380 00:30:30.720 --> 00:30:34.440 and there hasn't been anybody else to challenge him, and nuh it's believe 381 00:30:34.480 --> 00:30:38.359 me, if there was another Republican I'd consider it, But anyway becomes so 382 00:30:38.680 --> 00:30:44.160 tribal. Gary Pardy over everything. It's yeah, it sucks. Uh. 383 00:30:44.279 --> 00:30:45.839 I want to get your thought. We got one more segment with Sam Methler 384 00:30:47.480 --> 00:30:49.799 the dous and Notes for Kamala Harris. So we just talked about Trump. 385 00:30:49.880 --> 00:30:52.000 Now we have to go to the other side of the aisle with Sam Medler 386 00:30:52.079 --> 00:30:59.079 coming up next on WBC's night Side. Now back to Dan red Line from 387 00:30:59.079 --> 00:31:03.640 the Window World night Side Studios on w b Z News Radio, Gary Tang, 388 00:31:03.720 --> 00:31:08.279 we finishing things out for Dan Ray tonight. Uh. Sam Mettler is 389 00:31:08.319 --> 00:31:14.799 my guest, have you Award winning producer of Intervention, comedian writer, Uh, 390 00:31:15.000 --> 00:31:17.720 political junkie, Sam. I I before we get to Kamal, I 391 00:31:17.759 --> 00:31:21.160 wanted to ask you about Putin and Trump because my feeling always is that Putin 392 00:31:21.200 --> 00:31:26.640 wants Trump in because Putin thinks he can play him like a fiddle. Yes, 393 00:31:26.920 --> 00:31:32.759 but Putin's wrong, right, I mean, I think Putin is grasping 394 00:31:33.240 --> 00:31:40.559 to towards anyone who will you know, let him you know be uh, 395 00:31:40.599 --> 00:31:45.079 and I don't. I think Trump is a guy who would very readily stab 396 00:31:45.279 --> 00:31:52.000 someone in the back. So, you know, I as much as as 397 00:31:52.240 --> 00:31:59.960 as Putin would like to see the US in disarray by having another Trump president, 398 00:32:00.079 --> 00:32:02.720 see, I think he knows that, you know, Trump could turn 399 00:32:02.720 --> 00:32:07.559 on him on a dime. Well, I also think that Putin will say 400 00:32:07.559 --> 00:32:13.480 that, you know, he fears Harris, because I think they have said 401 00:32:13.519 --> 00:32:16.759 that before. But what he really wants because he wants that to work against 402 00:32:16.880 --> 00:32:22.599 He wants American voters to disagree with him and then go for Trump because he 403 00:32:22.640 --> 00:32:24.720 thinks that Trump would be more of his ally. Where Trump gets in trouble 404 00:32:24.759 --> 00:32:29.680 sometimes, as he'll is, if you he just wants to be a contrarian. 405 00:32:30.279 --> 00:32:32.440 You know, you could just say to him, Putin bad and then 406 00:32:32.440 --> 00:32:36.200 he just to be a contrarian. He goes, well, not really, 407 00:32:36.599 --> 00:32:42.960 but you know absolutely that is his mo o. But I mean Putin afraid 408 00:32:43.000 --> 00:32:49.799 of Kamala. I'm sorry. I don't see her as a person who strikes 409 00:32:50.000 --> 00:32:54.319 fear in the heart of our enemies around the world. Well, and of 410 00:32:54.359 --> 00:32:58.519 course not. She has no international experience. So what you're feeling here with 411 00:32:59.319 --> 00:33:02.160 the situation, I mean I started the show by saying I wanted to have 412 00:33:02.200 --> 00:33:07.240 a good old fashioned convention. But but everybody says, well, you don't 413 00:33:07.240 --> 00:33:13.960 have time, you get a mobilizing Uh, they're right. It's so with 414 00:33:14.039 --> 00:33:17.119 the electronic media now, and I understand the glad handing and going house to 415 00:33:17.200 --> 00:33:22.920 house. But do you really need this much time to run a campaign where 416 00:33:22.920 --> 00:33:25.920 everything is so a media and in your face? Yes? All right, 417 00:33:27.200 --> 00:33:29.680 okay, well what about comic because I want to get to most of the 418 00:33:29.720 --> 00:33:36.039 countries not watching TV. And yes, I don't think they're watching the news. 419 00:33:36.200 --> 00:33:38.119 Let's put it that way. You probably have the numbers. I think 420 00:33:38.119 --> 00:33:42.079 they you know, I think it's kind of oh, the number of TV 421 00:33:42.279 --> 00:33:45.319 is dying and dying and dying. Well, not team talking about content. 422 00:33:45.400 --> 00:33:46.519 I mean I think people just watch it. Yeah, but I mean it's 423 00:33:47.240 --> 00:33:52.839 TikTok. It's I mean, it's TikTok's dude, she's a STARO ticket. 424 00:33:52.920 --> 00:33:55.359 Sure. Sure, it's like Chinese food though you know you get hungry an 425 00:33:55.400 --> 00:33:59.359 hour after you eat it. I mean like TikTok's gone out of your head 426 00:33:59.759 --> 00:34:02.160 and the next TikTok. Well, do you think that you can work with 427 00:34:02.279 --> 00:34:06.960 something with that? Do you think that that can work for something with a 428 00:34:07.039 --> 00:34:13.400 with a candidate, for example Trump? Do people remember January sixth Kamala twenty 429 00:34:13.519 --> 00:34:16.559 nineteen ran a terrible campaign. Do people remember that? Or is it like 430 00:34:16.639 --> 00:34:22.159 Chinese now where it's gone? No? No, I mean January sixth is 431 00:34:22.199 --> 00:34:28.199 something you absolutely remember. Right. What they don't remember is how Kamala did 432 00:34:28.280 --> 00:34:31.360 in a primary debate, you know, eight years ago. I mean, 433 00:34:31.760 --> 00:34:37.639 that's just impossible. Or it's four years ago, I should say. I 434 00:34:37.679 --> 00:34:43.400 think she's got to stop laughing. Oh my god, the laugh is awful. 435 00:34:43.519 --> 00:34:47.360 Her laugh in Hillary's laugh anytime they get an uncomfortable question, there's that 436 00:34:47.880 --> 00:34:52.320 fricking laugh, and it drives me nuts and it drives everybody nuts. Right, 437 00:34:52.440 --> 00:34:59.000 She's got to be more serious. She's got to absolutely read her prep 438 00:34:59.039 --> 00:35:01.760 work. I mean, this is been an an enormous problem for her, 439 00:35:01.800 --> 00:35:08.840 and it's why she's been through lots and lots of her staff because she refused 440 00:35:08.840 --> 00:35:15.960 to read the prep work and got in interviews and really really failed terribly. 441 00:35:16.400 --> 00:35:21.119 Right, She's got to be prepped and prepped and prepped. She's got to 442 00:35:21.159 --> 00:35:28.880 stop repeating taglines, right, asking voters to see what is possible, unburdened 443 00:35:29.079 --> 00:35:31.239 by what has been I don't know if you've heard that one. I mean 444 00:35:31.679 --> 00:35:36.800 there are compilations of that one where she has said it twenty thirty I don't 445 00:35:36.800 --> 00:35:42.239 know how many times, right, and it's empty. And she's got to 446 00:35:42.280 --> 00:35:47.400 disassociate herself from the border because she was borders are and that's a mess. 447 00:35:49.039 --> 00:35:53.960 And she's got to come more towards the middle for a general election, right, 448 00:35:54.280 --> 00:36:00.519 she has got to talk about prices, right, because prices are bad. 449 00:36:00.639 --> 00:36:02.440 I mean, I don't know if you've been to the market lately, 450 00:36:02.480 --> 00:36:07.760 Gary, I think you, yeah, you have people to do your shopping 451 00:36:07.800 --> 00:36:13.239 for you though, Oh don't you sure? Yeah? Yeah, Gary, 452 00:36:13.280 --> 00:36:16.280 Gary does the shopping. Yeah, but no, I mean, prices have 453 00:36:16.400 --> 00:36:21.599 been crazy. I mean, buying a house crazy, get it, you 454 00:36:21.639 --> 00:36:23.199 know, I mean, somebody tells me what my house is worth them going 455 00:36:23.239 --> 00:36:29.000 what? Yeah? I mean. So so she really has to I mean 456 00:36:29.239 --> 00:36:31.920 because as much as you say people, you know, I listened to you 457 00:36:31.960 --> 00:36:36.880 before about people not voting their pocketbook. Yes, they do. You know, 458 00:36:37.079 --> 00:36:42.719 anyone, anyone over thirty or thirty five is absolutely voting their pocketbook, 459 00:36:42.800 --> 00:36:49.239 right. Anyone with kids is absolutely voting their pocketbook. Young people and and 460 00:36:49.280 --> 00:36:52.559 maybe older people will go with their heart and the personality if they see a 461 00:36:52.639 --> 00:36:59.960 leader. But you know, most of America cares about where their money is 462 00:37:00.119 --> 00:37:01.880 and how it's doing. And most of them are not in the stock market 463 00:37:02.360 --> 00:37:07.119 seeing you know, their money build and build and build and build. They're 464 00:37:07.199 --> 00:37:08.960 just going to the market and going, Holy cow, I got to pay 465 00:37:09.000 --> 00:37:16.960 this for eggs. So I mean, I think that she has got to 466 00:37:17.000 --> 00:37:27.039 be very very strong at delineating Hamas from Palestine, right, and and that 467 00:37:28.480 --> 00:37:31.719 you know, if she wads too far into that mess, that she's gonna 468 00:37:31.760 --> 00:37:37.679 lose either way. So I think she's got to tread lightly on that. 469 00:37:37.840 --> 00:37:45.199 But you know, Hamas they're terrorists, right, and Israel maybe heavy handed, 470 00:37:45.480 --> 00:37:49.360 I don't know how heavy handed. It's so tough to you know, 471 00:37:50.519 --> 00:37:55.960 tell someone how to handle a war, you know, when we've never had 472 00:37:57.039 --> 00:38:00.400 a war like that. Well, yeah, and especially when you were attacked. 473 00:38:00.480 --> 00:38:07.239 Yeah, exactly. Listen, if Mexico attacked us like that and kept 474 00:38:07.320 --> 00:38:12.679 saying, by the way, we're going to keep on doing that, we 475 00:38:12.760 --> 00:38:16.679 would be, oh, forget it, relentless, relentless until we got rid 476 00:38:16.679 --> 00:38:22.760 of the government that did it. Texas would be going to Central America. 477 00:38:22.599 --> 00:38:28.000 Yeah. Yeah, Well, I mean she I think she has a tough 478 00:38:28.760 --> 00:38:32.920 job ahead because she doesn't do well in debates and she doesn't do well extemporaneously 479 00:38:32.960 --> 00:38:38.440 in interviews. So she's got to prep herself, like, you know, 480 00:38:38.760 --> 00:38:44.079 she is studying for the hardest part of her life on Broadway, and it 481 00:38:44.159 --> 00:38:46.519 is the hardest, you know, job or part in her life. We 482 00:38:46.639 --> 00:38:52.239 got about a minute, Sam, can't she win? I think it's tough. 483 00:38:52.760 --> 00:38:55.320 I think it's really tough because people don't know what she can bring. 484 00:38:55.679 --> 00:39:02.559 Frankly, I think that it just no they just excuse me. They just 485 00:39:02.800 --> 00:39:10.760 know who she's against. Well. I also, it depends if Trump really 486 00:39:10.800 --> 00:39:15.400 messes up. I mean, and I don't know if he he's if he 487 00:39:15.480 --> 00:39:17.880 hasn't so far, I don't know how he can. I mean, if 488 00:39:17.880 --> 00:39:21.559 he hasn't, you know, if he hasn't messed up at this point, 489 00:39:21.599 --> 00:39:23.639 I don't know if he will, you know. But I think it's going 490 00:39:23.679 --> 00:39:27.599 to be closer than people think, because I do think there will be a 491 00:39:27.639 --> 00:39:32.000 youthful turnout.
