WEBVTT 1 00:00:00.480 --> 00:00:01.280 It's nice eyes. 2 00:00:02.759 --> 00:00:05.480 I'm telling you Boston's news radio. 3 00:00:05.919 --> 00:00:08.279 I kind of keeping a look out of the court 4 00:00:08.320 --> 00:00:12.039 of my eye. At the Democratic National Gas Joe Biden 5 00:00:12.119 --> 00:00:17.359 was supposed to give his swan song, his his his, well, 6 00:00:17.399 --> 00:00:20.519 not his final speech as president, but certainly his final 7 00:00:21.079 --> 00:00:27.199 speech to a Democratic National convention. It's now eleven nine 8 00:00:27.320 --> 00:00:30.839 or eleven oh eight, and they haven't let him up 9 00:00:30.879 --> 00:00:35.479 there yet. Chris Coons, Uh, the senator from Delaware, one 10 00:00:35.520 --> 00:00:37.799 of the two senators from Delaware, is up there speaking. 11 00:00:38.560 --> 00:00:42.799 This is cruel. It's like, give him its time. Half 12 00:00:42.840 --> 00:00:45.439 of Americas has already turned in and gone to bed, 13 00:00:45.799 --> 00:00:47.679 but we got an hour left to go, and let's 14 00:00:47.719 --> 00:00:51.560 keep rolling. Six one, seven, triple eight, nine to nine, 15 00:00:51.679 --> 00:00:55.320 ten thirty. We're talking about the choice. We're left with 16 00:00:56.320 --> 00:01:00.920 Donald Trump, who you know, seems to be I think 17 00:01:01.039 --> 00:01:04.719 running for I don't know, the host of the Tonight 18 00:01:04.799 --> 00:01:09.120 Show or something. And Don Rickles, and we have Vice 19 00:01:09.200 --> 00:01:17.359 President Harris who seems to be on economic issues. Just 20 00:01:17.920 --> 00:01:20.840 throwing it out there, throwing it out there. We'll smash 21 00:01:20.879 --> 00:01:24.680 people's patents, we'll take their patents, we'll we'll tell people 22 00:01:24.879 --> 00:01:26.840 what they can produce and what they can charge for 23 00:01:27.120 --> 00:01:32.159 I mean, talk about a command and controlled economy. If 24 00:01:32.599 --> 00:01:36.879 Venzuela here we come. Let's let me go to Joe 25 00:01:36.920 --> 00:01:38.560 and to Joe. You're next on Nightside. 26 00:01:38.599 --> 00:01:43.400 Welcome, Thanks Dan Vern it's great show you. I just 27 00:01:43.400 --> 00:01:44.480 said two quick points. 28 00:01:44.719 --> 00:01:47.719 The first one is talking about, you know, the choice 29 00:01:47.719 --> 00:01:51.560 we have to make picking your poison. I think that 30 00:01:51.640 --> 00:01:54.560 you know this is this terrible choice in the last 31 00:01:54.599 --> 00:01:56.840 one was just as bad. And even going back to 32 00:01:56.879 --> 00:01:59.319 the first Trump against Hillary. Yeah, we have the news 33 00:01:59.359 --> 00:02:02.680 between two very bad candidates. But I don't think the 34 00:02:02.760 --> 00:02:06.200 candidates are the problem. I think they're the result of 35 00:02:06.239 --> 00:02:09.439 the problem. And the problem is the political system in 36 00:02:09.479 --> 00:02:14.439 our country is so broken and so corrupt that the 37 00:02:14.479 --> 00:02:18.560 only natural result is flawed terrible candidates. 38 00:02:19.400 --> 00:02:23.120 You might be right, I just don't understand. They're smart 39 00:02:23.120 --> 00:02:26.439 people in both parties, in the Democratic Party and the 40 00:02:26.479 --> 00:02:31.800 Republican Party. And it seems that if I don't know, 41 00:02:31.919 --> 00:02:34.080 I mean, you know, Donald Trump kind of steamrolled the 42 00:02:34.080 --> 00:02:36.599 Republican Party in twenty sixteen. I didn't think that he 43 00:02:36.759 --> 00:02:39.439 was going to be nominated by the Republican Ard. He's 44 00:02:39.560 --> 00:02:44.960 changed the focus of the Republican Party. Joe Biden campaigned 45 00:02:45.000 --> 00:02:48.039 from his basement and somehow won that election. And now 46 00:02:48.560 --> 00:02:55.080 I refer to the vice president's nomination, you know, presidential 47 00:02:55.120 --> 00:03:00.400 nomination as the immaculate nomination. It's miraculous. Never raised money, 48 00:03:01.080 --> 00:03:05.520 never got to vote for president, to win me delegates, 49 00:03:06.159 --> 00:03:08.719 and now she's the nominee of the party. I think 50 00:03:08.800 --> 00:03:11.560 about what Mike Doucaccus went through in the campaign trail. 51 00:03:11.680 --> 00:03:14.879 I covered that in nineteen eighty eight. Uh, you know 52 00:03:14.919 --> 00:03:18.039 what what Bill Clinton went through in the campaign trail 53 00:03:18.159 --> 00:03:21.680 to win the nomination, What President Obama went through he 54 00:03:21.719 --> 00:03:25.719 had to defeat Hillary Clinton in two thousand and eight. 55 00:03:25.759 --> 00:03:29.319 And Joe Biden. I mean, it's been a cake walk 56 00:03:29.400 --> 00:03:32.599 for for Vice President Harris. 57 00:03:32.919 --> 00:03:35.199 And that's the thing I don't understand, Like it just 58 00:03:35.240 --> 00:03:38.560 seems like there's someone or some people behind the you know, 59 00:03:38.639 --> 00:03:42.639 pulling strings with the you know, like the puppet strings making. 60 00:03:43.280 --> 00:03:47.280 Read marine read marine. Dowds call him in the in 61 00:03:47.319 --> 00:03:51.439 the New York Times this past weekend on Saturday. The 62 00:03:51.479 --> 00:03:54.120 Dems are delighted. But a coup is still a coup. 63 00:03:55.800 --> 00:03:58.400 I mean, at poor Joe Biden. They could have they 64 00:03:58.439 --> 00:04:01.879 put it got him on tonight at nine. They're just 65 00:04:02.560 --> 00:04:05.759 speaker after speaker after speaker. This reminds me of George 66 00:04:05.800 --> 00:04:08.360 mcgovernor in nineteen seventy two when they didn't finally nominate 67 00:04:08.400 --> 00:04:11.120 George McGovern until about two thirty in the morning, and 68 00:04:11.199 --> 00:04:14.039 he spoke to you to the nation that had gone 69 00:04:14.039 --> 00:04:16.079 to sleep. I think it was still prime time in 70 00:04:16.160 --> 00:04:17.879 Hawaii and parts of Alaska. 71 00:04:18.480 --> 00:04:19.920 Well, that's what you do when you're trying to do 72 00:04:20.000 --> 00:04:21.839 something sneaky, you do it when no one's looking. 73 00:04:24.319 --> 00:04:26.800 I guess so, I guess so. 74 00:04:27.199 --> 00:04:29.360 I mean, to my point, like you said, when's the 75 00:04:29.399 --> 00:04:31.680 next Reagan or the next Kennedy, I don't think there's 76 00:04:31.680 --> 00:04:33.240 ever going to be one, because I don't think the 77 00:04:33.279 --> 00:04:36.959 system is designed to push those people forward. 78 00:04:38.959 --> 00:04:41.560 I fear you're right, to be honest with you, because 79 00:04:41.600 --> 00:04:44.000 I don't think that we're getting the best in the brightest. 80 00:04:44.040 --> 00:04:45.839 I don't think we're getting the best in the brightest 81 00:04:45.920 --> 00:04:50.240 in the political arena period. We're getting ideologues either from 82 00:04:50.279 --> 00:04:52.399 the far right or the far left. I mean, look 83 00:04:52.399 --> 00:04:58.480 at Senator Warren in Massachusetts, you know, I mean talk 84 00:04:58.519 --> 00:05:00.240 about a lightweight my. 85 00:05:00.279 --> 00:05:04.920 Opinion, Well, honestly, Dan, the best and the brightest people 86 00:05:05.839 --> 00:05:10.199 wouldn't want to put themselves through this. I don't think yeah, 87 00:05:10.319 --> 00:05:14.000 because it's it's not a pleasant process to go through, 88 00:05:14.360 --> 00:05:16.160 and I think people say, hey, I don't need that. 89 00:05:17.360 --> 00:05:21.920 Yeah. Uh, well it's it's raising money and all you know, 90 00:05:22.720 --> 00:05:26.639 it's it's I guess it's it's the worst system in 91 00:05:26.680 --> 00:05:28.519 the world, but it's better than all the rest. I 92 00:05:28.519 --> 00:05:33.319 don't know how to I think you make great points. 93 00:05:33.319 --> 00:05:36.439 I can't disagree with you. Joe. Appreciate your calling as always. 94 00:05:36.439 --> 00:05:37.720 I hope you keep calling the show. 95 00:05:38.399 --> 00:05:38.720 Thanks all. 96 00:05:38.759 --> 00:05:40.639 I love the show man, Thank you much, appreciate it. 97 00:05:41.040 --> 00:05:41.160 All. 98 00:05:41.240 --> 00:05:44.199 Right, day, take a very quick break. Well, we might 99 00:05:44.199 --> 00:05:47.519 be getting closer to Joe Biden here. We'll see. We're 100 00:05:47.519 --> 00:05:49.480 not going to play his speech for you, but you 101 00:05:49.519 --> 00:05:54.120 know it'll be uh please stay with us. We'll be 102 00:05:54.199 --> 00:05:55.720 back at night Side right after this. 103 00:05:56.639 --> 00:05:59.800 Now back to Dan Ray live from the Window World 104 00:06:00.040 --> 00:06:03.399 in Side Studios on WBZ News Radio. 105 00:06:03.600 --> 00:06:05.439 Taking them as they come. Let's go to Sandy in 106 00:06:05.519 --> 00:06:07.759 West Roxbury. Sandy, welcome back. How are you. 107 00:06:09.240 --> 00:06:09.360 Hi? 108 00:06:09.720 --> 00:06:11.399 Excuse me, very well? Thank you? 109 00:06:11.439 --> 00:06:14.720 How are you right ahead? What's your take on all 110 00:06:14.800 --> 00:06:15.360 of this tonight? 111 00:06:15.920 --> 00:06:20.319 Well, I have two things to say, as bad and inventile, 112 00:06:20.639 --> 00:06:28.480 as Trump's remarks are it's better that stupid warding and 113 00:06:29.000 --> 00:06:32.759 that word stupid again, that infantile warding as opposed to 114 00:06:32.839 --> 00:06:37.199 people shooting each other. And in the first his first 115 00:06:37.360 --> 00:06:40.120 four years, I mean, he was constantly picking fights and 116 00:06:40.240 --> 00:06:43.800 being ridiculous in his warding. But the world was quiet, 117 00:06:44.879 --> 00:06:47.720 and I think that's part of his strategy. And the 118 00:06:47.800 --> 00:06:50.040 other thing I want to say is that this has 119 00:06:50.120 --> 00:06:53.600 really irked me for a long time. The Democrats keep saying, 120 00:06:53.639 --> 00:06:57.279 we have to say about democracy. We don't have democracy. 121 00:06:57.480 --> 00:06:59.959 We never did have a democracy. If you read the Constitution, 122 00:07:00.000 --> 00:07:02.720 shouldn't the word democracy is not even in there. We 123 00:07:02.839 --> 00:07:06.360 have a republic, and it seems like people either don't 124 00:07:06.399 --> 00:07:10.879 know that or have forgotten that. And purposely we don't 125 00:07:10.920 --> 00:07:14.720 have a democracy because the founding fathers did not feel 126 00:07:14.800 --> 00:07:18.480 that rule by the masses was anything to aim for. 127 00:07:18.920 --> 00:07:20.800 Yeah. The other thing, the other thing too, just to 128 00:07:20.879 --> 00:07:24.439 make to support your point, is I don't think that 129 00:07:24.639 --> 00:07:32.480 the the immaculate nomination of Vice President Harris is the process. 130 00:07:32.879 --> 00:07:34.560 It was a democratic process. 131 00:07:35.680 --> 00:07:41.439 Well, nothing the Democrats do is democratic, back back room politics. 132 00:07:41.480 --> 00:07:44.480 And as Maureen Dawd says Uh said in the in 133 00:07:44.560 --> 00:07:47.560 The New York Times on Saturday. The Dems are delighted, 134 00:07:47.639 --> 00:07:49.319 But a coup is still a coup, if you call 135 00:07:49.600 --> 00:07:54.680 a coup. Yeah, Pelosi and Schumer and uh, you know 136 00:07:54.879 --> 00:07:58.519 various other you know, George Clooney, you know, people of 137 00:07:58.600 --> 00:08:00.000 influence within Democratic Party. 138 00:08:01.240 --> 00:08:04.240 Yeah. I don't pretend to have read all of the 139 00:08:04.680 --> 00:08:07.040 Federalist papers, but I read enough of them to get 140 00:08:07.079 --> 00:08:10.839 the gist of it. But the main point that they said, 141 00:08:10.920 --> 00:08:14.279 which is just so true, if all people were angels, 142 00:08:14.399 --> 00:08:18.160 we would need a constitution, and if all people were devils, 143 00:08:18.560 --> 00:08:22.160 then no constitution would work anyway. And so you have 144 00:08:22.279 --> 00:08:25.959 to find something in the middle, you know. And I 145 00:08:26.079 --> 00:08:31.040 think they've done a pretty good job. You're right. I 146 00:08:31.120 --> 00:08:33.919 mean it would be different if we had different candidates, 147 00:08:33.960 --> 00:08:37.360 But given the candidates we have, I mean, Trump, I 148 00:08:37.440 --> 00:08:40.279 think is infantile, there's no question about it, but he 149 00:08:40.440 --> 00:08:41.559 knows how to run the world. 150 00:08:42.200 --> 00:08:44.759 Well. Again, everybody's going to make their own decision. I 151 00:08:44.960 --> 00:08:48.399 just I'm looking at the choices tonight and not feeling 152 00:08:48.799 --> 00:08:50.120 especially inspired. 153 00:08:50.799 --> 00:08:53.840 No, but you know that if we get Harris in 154 00:08:54.320 --> 00:08:56.519 that the world is going to go insane because they're 155 00:08:56.519 --> 00:09:00.399 going to judge are totally incompetent as they did by then, 156 00:09:00.480 --> 00:09:03.000 and they're just going to keep on encroaching the bad guys, 157 00:09:03.080 --> 00:09:05.600 as we say, and that's what's going to happen. 158 00:09:06.240 --> 00:09:11.360 It's troubling. It's troubling no matter what. As always, I 159 00:09:11.440 --> 00:09:13.279 appreciate your call, Sandy, Thank you much. 160 00:09:13.600 --> 00:09:15.200 All right, you take care, talk to you soon. 161 00:09:15.279 --> 00:09:15.879 Have a great night. 162 00:09:16.440 --> 00:09:16.559 Night. 163 00:09:16.639 --> 00:09:18.879 All right, good night. Let's keep rolling here. I'm going 164 00:09:18.919 --> 00:09:21.320 to try to sneak one in here before the news 165 00:09:21.399 --> 00:09:23.720 at the bottom of the hour. Theodore in Baltimore. Theodore, 166 00:09:23.720 --> 00:09:24.919 I don't once you have to wait through the news. 167 00:09:25.000 --> 00:09:27.519 Go right ahead, can you hear me? 168 00:09:27.840 --> 00:09:29.519 I can hear you? Find theatre? Go right ahead. 169 00:09:29.879 --> 00:09:32.759 I'm listening to your caller. Them the monica that you 170 00:09:32.960 --> 00:09:35.720 gave land to the people. They who were clapping in 171 00:09:35.799 --> 00:09:39.240 the orders. I wouldn't call them dumb. I just I 172 00:09:39.399 --> 00:09:42.639 just call them there please with the candidates and then 173 00:09:42.720 --> 00:09:44.120 reference to the candidates. 174 00:09:44.519 --> 00:09:46.840 Well, the reason I don't know if I if I 175 00:09:46.960 --> 00:09:49.519 use the word dumb, I probably shouldn't have, but I 176 00:09:49.600 --> 00:09:53.960 would say that it reminds me almost theater of a 177 00:09:54.000 --> 00:09:56.799 bad movie script. I mean, it's like if you liked me, 178 00:09:57.159 --> 00:09:59.559 I promise I mean, if we're going to give twenty 179 00:09:59.600 --> 00:10:02.919 five hous thousand dollars for people, you know, which is insane, 180 00:10:03.080 --> 00:10:07.120 but that's economically insane. Why not give twenty thousand dollars 181 00:10:07.200 --> 00:10:08.600 for people who need new cars? 182 00:10:09.320 --> 00:10:09.440 Y know? 183 00:10:09.720 --> 00:10:12.360 Why not give ten thousand dollars for people who would 184 00:10:12.399 --> 00:10:15.000 like season tickets to the Ravens games or something. 185 00:10:15.039 --> 00:10:21.559 I understand that that's people make promises that in many 186 00:10:21.639 --> 00:10:25.720 cases can't go forward when they are elected. But I'm 187 00:10:25.759 --> 00:10:29.639 looking at the candidates, and I'm looking at a man 188 00:10:30.120 --> 00:10:33.759 who told people like me who caught COVID that I 189 00:10:33.799 --> 00:10:36.000 should inject bleach. He did not expect. 190 00:10:36.120 --> 00:10:38.440 You know what's funny. It's funny. I'm waiting for someone 191 00:10:38.519 --> 00:10:41.399 to bring this up. Okay, do me a favor. He 192 00:10:41.720 --> 00:10:45.600 never said that, okay. And I'm not here to defend 193 00:10:45.679 --> 00:10:48.200 Donald Trump. Okay, But I have in. 194 00:10:48.240 --> 00:10:51.879 Front of the path conference I have in front. 195 00:10:51.679 --> 00:10:54.200 Of me, Okay, I have in front of me a 196 00:10:54.360 --> 00:10:58.519 fact check on that he was at a news conference. 197 00:10:58.759 --> 00:11:06.039 You're correct in which another gentleman an expert named William Bryan. Okay, 198 00:11:07.240 --> 00:11:13.840 he was under under Secretary for Science and Technology at 199 00:11:13.840 --> 00:11:18.320 the Department of Homeland Security. Okay, Brian speaks first, and 200 00:11:18.480 --> 00:11:21.639 Trump spoke after him. Brian said that his team had 201 00:11:21.720 --> 00:11:25.519 done some experiments that found that sun exposure and disinfectants, 202 00:11:26.120 --> 00:11:29.000 and I remember this news conference the cleaning agents like 203 00:11:29.080 --> 00:11:32.600 bleach could kill COVID nineteen on surfaces. Remember there was 204 00:11:32.639 --> 00:11:35.120 the whole conversation about did you get it through the air. 205 00:11:35.240 --> 00:11:40.240 We found out it eventually was like earborne. So Brian 206 00:11:40.320 --> 00:11:44.600 steps aside, concludes his research. Trump takes the mic and 207 00:11:44.720 --> 00:11:47.919 sort of riffs. As Trump does, he's looking back and 208 00:11:48.000 --> 00:11:50.120 forth at reporters, and then Brian, who's sitting off to 209 00:11:50.200 --> 00:11:52.720 the side. Trump says, speaking to reporters, you know a 210 00:11:52.840 --> 00:11:55.240 question that a lot of you are probably thinking, is 211 00:11:55.320 --> 00:11:57.759 that if we hit the body this now is, in 212 00:11:57.799 --> 00:12:01.440 Trump's words, with a tremendous ultra violet, a very powerful light. 213 00:12:01.759 --> 00:12:04.440 And I'm sort of paraphacting here for the sake of clarity. 214 00:12:04.720 --> 00:12:08.879 Then he turns to Brian and he says, that hasn't 215 00:12:08.919 --> 00:12:11.159 been checked, but you're gonna test it, which you can 216 00:12:11.240 --> 00:12:13.120 do either through the skin or some other way. And 217 00:12:13.200 --> 00:12:16.159 I think you said you're gonna test That sounds interesting, right. 218 00:12:16.519 --> 00:12:18.879 He goes on and he says, I see the disinfected 219 00:12:18.960 --> 00:12:21.120 word knocks it out in one minute. Is there a 220 00:12:21.159 --> 00:12:23.879 way we could do something like that by injection inside 221 00:12:24.000 --> 00:12:26.559 or almost a cleaning, because you see it gets in 222 00:12:26.639 --> 00:12:30.120 the lungs. Trump is referring to the virus. He goes 223 00:12:30.200 --> 00:12:32.679 on a tremendous number of the lungs. And I think 224 00:12:32.720 --> 00:12:37.120 it's been interesting. It's typical. He never says that you're 225 00:12:37.159 --> 00:12:40.360 gonna inject bleach. Okay, And if you can find me 226 00:12:40.519 --> 00:12:45.159 the SoundBite where Donald Trump says, I recommend to the 227 00:12:45.200 --> 00:12:49.200 American people that they inject bleach, send it to me, Theodore. 228 00:12:49.600 --> 00:12:52.200 I will have you on the show as a guest host. 229 00:12:52.679 --> 00:12:55.799 Well, guess what, Dan, he said, this is gonna be 230 00:12:55.840 --> 00:12:59.600 over fifteen minutes now. In reference to him going on 231 00:13:00.639 --> 00:13:03.159 some flights of fancy, if you want to call it, 232 00:13:03.559 --> 00:13:07.000 when he's at the kodium, to me, he's sing out. 233 00:13:07.720 --> 00:13:12.080 And this man even made comments about his own daughter 234 00:13:13.039 --> 00:13:16.559 being attractive to him, and I. 235 00:13:16.639 --> 00:13:19.679 Will understand, and and and you were both find to 236 00:13:19.759 --> 00:13:22.639 be repulsive. And then and then you have Joe Biden, 237 00:13:22.720 --> 00:13:29.279 who was who apparently has had a a tendency to 238 00:13:29.440 --> 00:13:31.399 kind of struggle with with young girls. 239 00:13:31.480 --> 00:13:36.840 And yes, and I'm a Christian and I'm a former serviceman, 240 00:13:37.360 --> 00:13:40.480 and I'm gonna tell you that you can't get the 241 00:13:40.639 --> 00:13:43.480 people who says the he he tells the Christians the 242 00:13:43.519 --> 00:13:47.279 vote and every Sunday when they come on television and 243 00:13:47.399 --> 00:13:50.440 getting their pulpits, and they talk about some of the 244 00:13:50.600 --> 00:13:55.919 patriarchs who fell, and they are willing to set aside 245 00:13:56.240 --> 00:14:01.080 this man's lion, this man's adultery, this man and absolutely 246 00:14:01.240 --> 00:14:04.840 being unfit mentally for the post. They give a very 247 00:14:05.000 --> 00:14:07.799 lie to the profession on which which they stand up 248 00:14:07.840 --> 00:14:10.639 in front of people. And and and uh and a 249 00:14:10.759 --> 00:14:14.159 spouse and I'm a serviceman. When he said that the 250 00:14:14.639 --> 00:14:20.039 middle of honor is no more worth than a presidential 251 00:14:21.039 --> 00:14:27.039 uh he gives to politicians like miss Adelson. That offended many. 252 00:14:27.519 --> 00:14:30.639 Yeah, they get they get the Presidential Medal of you. 253 00:14:31.240 --> 00:14:34.600 You and I are in complete agreement. Theater, Okay, they 254 00:14:34.679 --> 00:14:39.399 get the Presidential Medal of Freedom, to athletes, to two 255 00:14:39.480 --> 00:14:43.320 movie stars, to to a variety of people. The medal 256 00:14:43.399 --> 00:14:47.480 of honor you and I both know is it isn't one. 257 00:14:48.159 --> 00:14:48.240 Uh. 258 00:14:48.440 --> 00:14:51.159 It is earned because of the valor and this and 259 00:14:51.279 --> 00:14:55.000 the situation and the circumstances that that men men and 260 00:14:55.080 --> 00:14:58.799 women in the military put themselves uh in such great danger, 261 00:14:58.879 --> 00:14:59.240 and all I. 262 00:14:59.320 --> 00:15:02.480 Didn't earn one. I wasn't worthy of one because of 263 00:15:02.559 --> 00:15:05.440 the position that I had in the military. But for 264 00:15:05.559 --> 00:15:07.799 a friend of mine who got killed over there, and 265 00:15:08.000 --> 00:15:11.159 other people got family members coming him from a man 266 00:15:11.360 --> 00:15:14.120 who got a doctor to say he had bone spurs 267 00:15:14.320 --> 00:15:17.559 to avoid the draft, where he had nothing wrong with him. 268 00:15:17.720 --> 00:15:22.960 He called He called a mister h a senator who 269 00:15:23.120 --> 00:15:26.639 was the senator from Arizona, McCain. He said he was 270 00:15:26.720 --> 00:15:31.039 a loser. He called men in the military who died losers. 271 00:15:31.399 --> 00:15:34.960 I have no respect I'm looking at. 272 00:15:35.840 --> 00:15:38.600 I'm not going to argue with Theodore, not arguing on 273 00:15:38.720 --> 00:15:43.200 that at all. But I just think between the between 274 00:15:43.279 --> 00:15:46.679 the two of them, I can raise issues about Harris here. 275 00:15:47.320 --> 00:15:48.919 That's true, you know. 276 00:15:49.559 --> 00:15:51.399 I mean another point I like to bring up, which 277 00:15:51.799 --> 00:15:56.080 in reference to fascism capitalism, just I'll give you I 278 00:15:56.279 --> 00:15:59.399 found out not I'm not a serious study about this, 279 00:15:59.720 --> 00:16:01.240 but I I found out for it. And I'll give 280 00:16:01.240 --> 00:16:05.799 an example. In nineteen ninety six, Eunieva Strauss made eight 281 00:16:06.000 --> 00:16:09.639 hundred million dollars profit. Two years later they made six 282 00:16:09.720 --> 00:16:14.039 hundred million. They screamed the dividends. One's big enough, the 283 00:16:14.200 --> 00:16:18.279 person is big enough. They called an chainsaw our dunlap. 284 00:16:18.440 --> 00:16:22.360 And that's why Levi Strauss doesn't even make games in 285 00:16:22.440 --> 00:16:25.759 this country. There is something to be said, and I 286 00:16:25.919 --> 00:16:28.759 lost a good frint over this. There's something to be 287 00:16:28.919 --> 00:16:32.519 seid for putting the reins on capitalism, which said, as 288 00:16:32.639 --> 00:16:35.279 long as you're le you could do anything you want. 289 00:16:35.559 --> 00:16:38.519 There's there's plenty of range. There's plenty, you know, Theodore, 290 00:16:38.879 --> 00:16:42.320 there's plenty of rangs on capitalism. Okay, we do not 291 00:16:42.559 --> 00:16:47.759 have what you would call unfettered capitalism. Okay, corporations pay taxes, 292 00:16:49.600 --> 00:16:52.799 wealthy individuals paid taxes. They pay more taxes than you 293 00:16:52.919 --> 00:16:55.759 and I do. Maybe you want to see them pay more. 294 00:16:56.279 --> 00:17:00.840 But capitalism has given the world a greater standard of 295 00:17:00.960 --> 00:17:05.920 living than any other economic system invented by men or woman. 296 00:17:06.160 --> 00:17:09.319 But I would like you to respond to this last 297 00:17:09.359 --> 00:17:12.680 comics where I go. First of all, if they took 298 00:17:12.799 --> 00:17:18.519 the camp off of fighter, social security, ladies and gentlemen 299 00:17:18.799 --> 00:17:22.400 would be solving for one thousand years. Right now, guy 300 00:17:22.559 --> 00:17:25.680 makes billions of dollars. He only has to pay fighter 301 00:17:25.799 --> 00:17:27.599 taxes on like what said one hundred and eighty something 302 00:17:27.720 --> 00:17:32.559 thousand dollars. But the Republicans will not. They will not 303 00:17:33.000 --> 00:17:37.279 do that in Congress. And that's why they scare us 304 00:17:37.599 --> 00:17:41.960 about Social Security, having our checks cut and not having 305 00:17:42.400 --> 00:17:46.240 enough to pay people their benefits. So I think they 306 00:17:46.440 --> 00:17:52.480 need a course on that. And Dan, once again, you 307 00:17:52.680 --> 00:17:55.240 get the best. You get my medal of honor for 308 00:17:55.400 --> 00:17:57.000 being a great talk show. 309 00:17:58.200 --> 00:17:58.359 Well. 310 00:17:58.559 --> 00:18:01.039 One thing I do try to allow people like you 311 00:18:01.160 --> 00:18:03.519 who who have something to say and say it well, 312 00:18:03.839 --> 00:18:06.640 an opportunity to I'm going to disagree with you on 313 00:18:06.720 --> 00:18:10.000 most things, as you know. And uh, and and we'll 314 00:18:10.119 --> 00:18:11.960 we'll again part his friends, and I'll look forward to 315 00:18:12.000 --> 00:18:13.440 our next phone phone conversation. 316 00:18:13.680 --> 00:18:15.319 Absolutely, have a great night, you. 317 00:18:15.400 --> 00:18:18.160 Too, theater. I have a great one. Okay, let's keep 318 00:18:18.240 --> 00:18:21.319 rolling here. We're gonna get one more in before the break. 319 00:18:21.440 --> 00:18:23.559 I'm not gonna make Tim and Taunt wait any longer. 320 00:18:23.599 --> 00:18:25.880 Tim Europe and Europe on nights. I go ahead, Tim, 321 00:18:28.000 --> 00:18:31.079 damn good, anything away you I'm doing just great. Tim, 322 00:18:31.319 --> 00:18:33.240 co ahead, sir good. 323 00:18:33.640 --> 00:18:37.119 I'm gonna be going into diplomatic global drive and say, uh, 324 00:18:37.920 --> 00:18:40.200 I'm not overjoyed about either of the candidates. To just 325 00:18:40.319 --> 00:18:42.200 leave it at down, I'll say no, more fair enough 326 00:18:43.400 --> 00:18:49.559 specific topic, but I have concern where we stand on 327 00:18:49.640 --> 00:18:51.920 the world stage. I think there's a lot of things 328 00:18:52.000 --> 00:18:57.559 that potentially occurrent in the coming you know, four year, 329 00:18:58.000 --> 00:18:58.640 regardless of. 330 00:18:58.599 --> 00:19:02.160 Who's end with the term always will yet there's always 331 00:19:02.240 --> 00:19:04.519 things we haven't thought of that will happen. I couldn't 332 00:19:04.519 --> 00:19:05.079 agree with you more. 333 00:19:06.480 --> 00:19:09.799 I think, you know, obviously we have the situation in Ukraine, 334 00:19:09.880 --> 00:19:13.160 but I think there's other parts, specifically in Asia, that 335 00:19:13.279 --> 00:19:18.000 are also potentially able to kick off yep. And I 336 00:19:18.960 --> 00:19:23.079 have concern about who's going to be in that position. 337 00:19:23.160 --> 00:19:26.160 And I think either way you should get everyone a 338 00:19:26.200 --> 00:19:29.720 bit of pause, because I'm not confident and I'm sure 339 00:19:29.799 --> 00:19:33.000 many others are not that there's a lot of answers. 340 00:19:34.519 --> 00:19:37.160 Well, I agree with you. I think that Taiwan is 341 00:19:37.200 --> 00:19:41.680 a tinder box. The Chinese obviously have their eye on Taiwan. 342 00:19:41.799 --> 00:19:44.759 How are we going to handle that? You got Ukraine? 343 00:19:44.839 --> 00:19:48.000 Who knows where that's going to end up. We've seen 344 00:19:48.119 --> 00:19:52.200 some very interesting developments in the last couple of weeks 345 00:19:52.240 --> 00:19:56.319 with Ukraine now actually holding Russian territory. I mean, it's 346 00:19:56.359 --> 00:19:58.839 a and and needless to say, the Middle East is 347 00:19:59.119 --> 00:20:02.480 always always a problem. You going on and on, and 348 00:20:02.519 --> 00:20:04.559 there's stuff that you and I can't even imagine that's 349 00:20:04.559 --> 00:20:05.920 going to happen in the next four years. 350 00:20:07.119 --> 00:20:11.240 Sit exactly and to the Middle East just quickly, good 351 00:20:11.319 --> 00:20:16.160 great grandchildren's great grandchildren probably won't no peace there exadly. 352 00:20:17.599 --> 00:20:23.000 I agree, I agree, But somehow, some way, the Palestinians 353 00:20:23.839 --> 00:20:26.920 and the Israelis have to figure out some way in 354 00:20:27.039 --> 00:20:30.559 which they at least can tolerate one another and coexist 355 00:20:30.640 --> 00:20:34.440 as opposed to more October sevenths. There's no doubt about 356 00:20:34.480 --> 00:20:38.880 that in my opinion. Okay, you can't allow a terrorist 357 00:20:38.960 --> 00:20:43.519 attack taking twelve hundred people's, innocent, innocent people's lives and 358 00:20:43.640 --> 00:20:46.359 expect Israel to sit back and say, well, you know, 359 00:20:46.640 --> 00:20:49.599 we can tolerate the loss of twelve hundred people, but 360 00:20:49.720 --> 00:20:51.720 don't do it again, and we might do something to you. 361 00:20:52.960 --> 00:20:54.960 Right, And to think there would be any other outcome 362 00:20:56.160 --> 00:20:59.279 other than what has happened is I'll be a bit naive. 363 00:21:00.000 --> 00:21:02.400 I couldn't agree with you more. It's it's it's tough, 364 00:21:02.519 --> 00:21:05.200 and I mean again, give me a Jack Kennedy, give 365 00:21:05.240 --> 00:21:07.440 me a Ronald Reagan. I don't I don't see any 366 00:21:07.480 --> 00:21:10.519 of them. I don't see I don't see Kennedy. I 367 00:21:10.559 --> 00:21:13.599 don't see a Ronald Reagan out there in either party. 368 00:21:14.000 --> 00:21:18.559 No, I agree, And this is going back a little further. 369 00:21:19.359 --> 00:21:22.680 And I know they were not particularly fond of one another, 370 00:21:22.799 --> 00:21:25.839 but give me Dwight Eisenhower and Jack Kennedy. 371 00:21:26.960 --> 00:21:29.079 Yeah, I think they were very respectful of each other. 372 00:21:29.200 --> 00:21:33.680 I mean I I think that they might have been. Again, 373 00:21:34.799 --> 00:21:38.240 Eisenhower obviously functioned in one part of the world during 374 00:21:38.279 --> 00:21:40.119 World War Two. Kennedy was in a different part of 375 00:21:40.160 --> 00:21:42.359 the world. But I think that down deep, they must 376 00:21:42.400 --> 00:21:45.599 have both respected their service and their sacrifice of the 377 00:21:45.680 --> 00:21:50.279 other person. In my opinion.
