00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:03.520
<v Speaker 1>This is Dan Capless and welcome to today's online podcast

2
00:00:03.640 --> 00:00:05.759
<v Speaker 1>edition of The Dan Caplis Show. Please be sure to

5
00:00:11.679 --> 00:00:16.239
<v Speaker 1>single day on your favorite podcast platform. The American way is,

6
00:00:16.359 --> 00:00:19.480
<v Speaker 1>we protect our children. And as we sit here right

7
00:00:19.519 --> 00:00:22.960
<v Speaker 1>now at four h six, we know that the next

8
00:00:23.199 --> 00:00:26.239
<v Speaker 1>mass shootings, the next school shootings in Colorado, are being

9
00:00:26.280 --> 00:00:29.760
<v Speaker 1>planned as we speak, and we hope and we pray

10
00:00:29.879 --> 00:00:32.520
<v Speaker 1>and we work to make sure that those monsters who

11
00:00:32.560 --> 00:00:36.000
<v Speaker 1>are planning the next school shootings here, that they fail,

12
00:00:36.079 --> 00:00:39.240
<v Speaker 1>that they're thwarted along the way. But we know that's happening,

13
00:00:39.960 --> 00:00:44.240
<v Speaker 1>and we know it's coming. And yet we have so many,

14
00:00:44.320 --> 00:00:47.119
<v Speaker 1>so many on the left who are opposed to just

15
00:00:47.200 --> 00:00:51.159
<v Speaker 1>these practical, common sense efforts to protect the kids. They

16
00:00:51.200 --> 00:00:54.960
<v Speaker 1>would rather literally, they would rather have the kids their defenseless,

17
00:00:55.000 --> 00:00:59.600
<v Speaker 1>the teachers, the staff, they're defenseless when the monsters show up.

18
00:01:00.119 --> 00:01:02.600
<v Speaker 1>Then they would have a good guy or good gale

19
00:01:02.799 --> 00:01:05.480
<v Speaker 1>with a gun there to give him a fighting chance.

20
00:01:05.519 --> 00:01:06.480
<v Speaker 2>It's it's one of.

21
00:01:06.400 --> 00:01:10.120
<v Speaker 1>The sickest, most bizarre things I've ever seen in my life.

22
00:01:10.120 --> 00:01:12.920
<v Speaker 1>But that's the reality on the ground in Colorado. And

23
00:01:13.280 --> 00:01:15.159
<v Speaker 1>you think of all those schools out there right now,

24
00:01:15.680 --> 00:01:18.159
<v Speaker 1>all those schools out there right now that no, they

25
00:01:18.319 --> 00:01:22.599
<v Speaker 1>know they have gaping holes in their security. Those schools

26
00:01:22.599 --> 00:01:25.319
<v Speaker 1>that don't have an armed good guy or gale, they

27
00:01:25.359 --> 00:01:28.760
<v Speaker 1>know for sure they are defenseless if the monster chooses

28
00:01:28.799 --> 00:01:31.560
<v Speaker 1>their school. And guess what, the monsters notice that two.

29
00:01:32.040 --> 00:01:34.159
<v Speaker 1>Look at the pattern of the monsters. Look at where

30
00:01:34.200 --> 00:01:37.560
<v Speaker 1>the monsters go, and yes, sometimes they'll go to a

31
00:01:37.599 --> 00:01:40.799
<v Speaker 1>school with the gun there, but very very often they

32
00:01:40.879 --> 00:01:43.799
<v Speaker 1>know where there are no guns, and that's where they go,

33
00:01:44.079 --> 00:01:46.439
<v Speaker 1>or that's why they go. Three all three seven three

34
00:01:46.480 --> 00:01:48.920
<v Speaker 1>eight two five five. The number takes da N five

35
00:01:49.000 --> 00:01:52.519
<v Speaker 1>seven seven three nine. Obviously, we're talking about that today

36
00:01:52.519 --> 00:01:56.120
<v Speaker 1>because of the latest school shooting, this at Florida State

37
00:01:56.200 --> 00:02:01.280
<v Speaker 1>University and two dead, five injured at this point, so

38
00:02:01.319 --> 00:02:04.439
<v Speaker 1>we'll weave that in and out of the show today.

39
00:02:04.480 --> 00:02:08.840
<v Speaker 1>But it is it's just so stunning to me that

40
00:02:08.919 --> 00:02:13.360
<v Speaker 1>the Left would really leave these schools unprotected and undefended.

41
00:02:13.560 --> 00:02:15.039
<v Speaker 2>The other piece of it is, well.

42
00:02:15.039 --> 00:02:19.199
<v Speaker 1>First of all, listen, any state, any society, any organization

43
00:02:19.240 --> 00:02:23.879
<v Speaker 1>of any kind that can't protect their children at that

44
00:02:24.000 --> 00:02:28.360
<v Speaker 1>point is fatally flawed to begin with, or won't protect

45
00:02:28.439 --> 00:02:31.759
<v Speaker 1>their children. But what's remarkable to me here is we've

46
00:02:31.759 --> 00:02:35.000
<v Speaker 1>got this sacred trust to protect the kids. Right, and

47
00:02:35.400 --> 00:02:39.080
<v Speaker 1>then on top of that, the left at this point,

48
00:02:39.280 --> 00:02:43.120
<v Speaker 1>the modern Democratic Party totally beholden to two things. One

49
00:02:43.199 --> 00:02:46.960
<v Speaker 1>is abortion on demand and the other is teachers' unions.

50
00:02:47.080 --> 00:02:49.840
<v Speaker 1>Screw the kids, it's pleased the teachers' unions. The kids

51
00:02:49.879 --> 00:02:51.639
<v Speaker 1>don't have the money, the kids can't vote, the kids

52
00:02:51.680 --> 00:02:52.759
<v Speaker 1>don't have the boots on the ground.

53
00:02:52.759 --> 00:02:53.759
<v Speaker 2>The teachers' union does.

54
00:02:54.479 --> 00:02:57.599
<v Speaker 1>So the attitude of the Colorado Democratic Party and the

55
00:02:57.599 --> 00:03:00.479
<v Speaker 1>modern Democratic Party is screw the kids, We just got

56
00:03:00.479 --> 00:03:03.639
<v Speaker 1>to make the teachers unions happy. But what's so remarkable

57
00:03:03.879 --> 00:03:09.080
<v Speaker 1>about this, this fierce opposition to doing what actually would

58
00:03:09.159 --> 00:03:11.840
<v Speaker 1>protect the kids in schools from these school shooters good

59
00:03:11.840 --> 00:03:15.400
<v Speaker 1>guy Gail with guns, is that you've got faculty in

60
00:03:15.479 --> 00:03:18.080
<v Speaker 1>staff in harm's way as well, and the top priority

61
00:03:18.159 --> 00:03:21.800
<v Speaker 1>should be the children. And the faculty and staff would

62
00:03:21.800 --> 00:03:24.479
<v Speaker 1>agree with that too, Right. We've seen such heroic faculty

63
00:03:24.479 --> 00:03:28.479
<v Speaker 1>and staff in the face of gunfire before, such as

64
00:03:28.560 --> 00:03:32.319
<v Speaker 1>Dave Sanders at Columbine, the janitors at Columbine. There are

65
00:03:32.319 --> 00:03:35.560
<v Speaker 1>other examples out there, but yet the Democratic Party in

66
00:03:35.599 --> 00:03:40.919
<v Speaker 1>Colorado would leave the faculty and staff totally defenseless as well.

67
00:03:40.680 --> 00:03:42.240
<v Speaker 2>In so many of these situations.

68
00:03:42.240 --> 00:03:45.919
<v Speaker 1>So well, eventually, I hope the voters at Colorado can

69
00:03:46.000 --> 00:03:47.840
<v Speaker 1>see that and say, no, we don't want those people

70
00:03:47.840 --> 00:03:49.960
<v Speaker 1>in charge. Three or three seOne three eight two five

71
00:03:50.080 --> 00:03:54.120
<v Speaker 1>five takes d a n five seven seven three nights.

72
00:03:54.159 --> 00:03:58.319
<v Speaker 1>So not the plan topic for the show because we

73
00:03:58.319 --> 00:04:00.560
<v Speaker 1>were hoping there wouldn't be a school shooting today, but

74
00:04:01.280 --> 00:04:03.199
<v Speaker 1>all too often it turns out that way.

75
00:04:03.919 --> 00:04:05.199
<v Speaker 2>Lots to kick around today.

76
00:04:05.560 --> 00:04:08.400
<v Speaker 1>Remarkable editorial in the Denver Post, and I guess they're

77
00:04:08.400 --> 00:04:11.039
<v Speaker 1>one for two this week, right because they did hammer

78
00:04:11.080 --> 00:04:13.960
<v Speaker 1>Michael Bennett just after his announcement, which was well deserved

79
00:04:13.960 --> 00:04:16.160
<v Speaker 1>and very much fun for.

80
00:04:16.160 --> 00:04:16.879
<v Speaker 2>The rest of us.

81
00:04:17.560 --> 00:04:22.079
<v Speaker 1>They swining missed on this one, though Polue's signature can

82
00:04:22.360 --> 00:04:27.319
<v Speaker 1>end Colorado's two tier justice system. This is a house editorial.

83
00:04:27.759 --> 00:04:30.439
<v Speaker 1>Now listen, you don't have to live in Denver for

84
00:04:30.519 --> 00:04:33.199
<v Speaker 1>this to matter to you. In fact, this applies directly

85
00:04:33.240 --> 00:04:36.680
<v Speaker 1>to everybody across the state. But what it's talking about

86
00:04:37.480 --> 00:04:41.399
<v Speaker 1>is it's talking about the fact that because statewide that

87
00:04:41.439 --> 00:04:45.079
<v Speaker 1>the Colorado Democratic Party police, etc. Has become so overtly

88
00:04:45.160 --> 00:04:49.160
<v Speaker 1>pro criminal and anti victim. You have all these state

89
00:04:49.240 --> 00:04:52.480
<v Speaker 1>laws now that are just way, way, way too soft.

90
00:04:52.800 --> 00:04:55.160
<v Speaker 1>So of course you have the increasing crime that comes

91
00:04:55.199 --> 00:04:59.639
<v Speaker 1>with that. So you have some cities and towns that

92
00:04:59.680 --> 00:05:02.519
<v Speaker 1>have set no, wait a second, no, we can't have this,

93
00:05:02.560 --> 00:05:04.360
<v Speaker 1>we can't have all this crime. I don't care what

94
00:05:04.399 --> 00:05:07.079
<v Speaker 1>Jared Polish wants. I don't care what the Colorado Democrats want.

95
00:05:07.600 --> 00:05:10.360
<v Speaker 1>We don't want this here. We can't survive filling the

96
00:05:10.360 --> 00:05:13.600
<v Speaker 1>blank here. So what do they do? They go out

97
00:05:13.600 --> 00:05:16.959
<v Speaker 1>and they get these municipal local ordinances where they have

98
00:05:17.040 --> 00:05:18.160
<v Speaker 1>stiffer penalties.

99
00:05:18.879 --> 00:05:21.759
<v Speaker 2>It maybe for shoplifting, it may be for other things.

100
00:05:22.319 --> 00:05:26.839
<v Speaker 1>And so what are the criminal loving Colorado Democrat Party

101
00:05:26.879 --> 00:05:29.120
<v Speaker 1>folks do? They come in and say, oh, no, you

102
00:05:29.160 --> 00:05:31.720
<v Speaker 1>can't have that anymore. They pass a bill that say no,

103
00:05:31.800 --> 00:05:35.519
<v Speaker 1>you can't have any penalties stiffer in your town, your

104
00:05:35.600 --> 00:05:40.600
<v Speaker 1>city or village. Then we have state wide Well think

105
00:05:40.600 --> 00:05:43.480
<v Speaker 1>about how wrong that is on multiple levels, right, But anyway,

106
00:05:43.560 --> 00:05:46.000
<v Speaker 1>so they have passed this law. Now, my law partner,

107
00:05:46.079 --> 00:05:49.879
<v Speaker 1>John Kellner at our firm, who is DA in Repo, Douglas, Albert,

108
00:05:49.879 --> 00:05:53.759
<v Speaker 1>and Lincoln until recently wrote a great piece, a great

109
00:05:53.839 --> 00:05:56.240
<v Speaker 1>piece on why Polish should veto this and why this

110
00:05:56.319 --> 00:06:00.160
<v Speaker 1>new legislation is so wrong that was published in the gazette.

111
00:06:00.360 --> 00:06:05.639
<v Speaker 1>But Police has indicated that he is probably going to

112
00:06:05.759 --> 00:06:09.399
<v Speaker 1>veto this bill, as as my partner John wanted him

113
00:06:09.399 --> 00:06:12.199
<v Speaker 1>to do. But the Denver Post is having none of that,

114
00:06:12.319 --> 00:06:14.680
<v Speaker 1>so they step in with this editorial today.

115
00:06:14.720 --> 00:06:15.240
<v Speaker 2>Listen to this.

116
00:06:15.800 --> 00:06:21.680
<v Speaker 1>Polus's signature can end Colorado's two tier justice system. Colorado

117
00:06:21.720 --> 00:06:26.120
<v Speaker 1>lawmakers have passed an end to two tier justices Colorado's

118
00:06:26.120 --> 00:06:29.959
<v Speaker 1>two tier justice system. Now Governor Jared Polis just needs

119
00:06:30.000 --> 00:06:34.480
<v Speaker 1>to sign House Bill eleven forty seven. The Denver Post

120
00:06:34.600 --> 00:06:39.079
<v Speaker 1>reporters highlighted the injustice of allowing municipal courts to carry

121
00:06:39.199 --> 00:06:44.079
<v Speaker 1>much harsher sentences for nonviolent petty crimes than state courts.

122
00:06:44.079 --> 00:06:46.639
<v Speaker 1>In a series of stories last year, The Posts found

123
00:06:46.680 --> 00:06:49.319
<v Speaker 1>that not only were people spending months in jail for

124
00:06:49.519 --> 00:06:52.600
<v Speaker 1>minor retail thefts that would have resulted in only a

125
00:06:52.600 --> 00:06:55.720
<v Speaker 1>few days sentence in state court, but that indi gender

126
00:06:55.800 --> 00:06:59.040
<v Speaker 1>poor defendants weren't guaranteed access to an attorney in unicourt,

127
00:06:59.399 --> 00:07:04.279
<v Speaker 1>resulting in longer sentences without any representation. House Bill eleven

128
00:07:04.399 --> 00:07:08.480
<v Speaker 1>forty seven would prohibit municipal courts from having harsher minimum

129
00:07:08.480 --> 00:07:13.439
<v Speaker 1>sentences than state courts, thus reducing the temptation for law

130
00:07:13.519 --> 00:07:17.319
<v Speaker 1>enforcement and prosecutors to funnel cases to municipal courts to

131
00:07:17.360 --> 00:07:22.720
<v Speaker 1>get harsher sentences without facing tough legal counsel. So anyway,

132
00:07:22.839 --> 00:07:26.160
<v Speaker 1>that's the way that they started these Wait a second,

133
00:07:26.600 --> 00:07:35.319
<v Speaker 1>like these police officers and prosecutors would be diabolically tempted to, Oh,

134
00:07:35.439 --> 00:07:39.240
<v Speaker 1>let's be evil, let's go file this cad in case

135
00:07:39.279 --> 00:07:42.399
<v Speaker 1>in municipal courts so we can wrongfully punish this person

136
00:07:42.399 --> 00:07:45.040
<v Speaker 1>over here. No, wait a second, deadver post. These are

137
00:07:45.040 --> 00:07:47.680
<v Speaker 1>the people out there putting their lives on the line

138
00:07:48.079 --> 00:07:51.680
<v Speaker 1>as law enforcement officers and the prosecutors who are taking

139
00:07:51.720 --> 00:07:55.120
<v Speaker 1>their God given skills to a prosecutor's job to serve

140
00:07:55.199 --> 00:07:55.759
<v Speaker 1>the public.

141
00:07:56.439 --> 00:07:57.399
<v Speaker 2>And you make them out to.

142
00:07:57.800 --> 00:08:02.160
<v Speaker 1>Be plotting this diabolical scheme to wrongly punish people. No,

143
00:08:02.480 --> 00:08:05.639
<v Speaker 1>they are trying to protect the community. Jared Polis and

144
00:08:05.680 --> 00:08:08.839
<v Speaker 1>the Colorado Democrats are not. It's that simple.

145
00:08:09.160 --> 00:08:11.800
<v Speaker 2>That's why these communities pass these laws.

146
00:08:11.959 --> 00:08:14.839
<v Speaker 1>They don't want crime, they don't like crime, they don't

147
00:08:14.879 --> 00:08:22.120
<v Speaker 1>worship criminals. They exist for victims. So anyway, and here's

148
00:08:22.160 --> 00:08:24.920
<v Speaker 1>where I think that just the starting point the Post

149
00:08:24.920 --> 00:08:31.000
<v Speaker 1>gets it backwards. This isn't a two tiered justice system

150
00:08:31.120 --> 00:08:35.080
<v Speaker 1>in Colorado when municipalities can punish more severely. No, the

151
00:08:35.200 --> 00:08:41.840
<v Speaker 1>problem is Colorado right now has a one tiered justice system,

152
00:08:42.440 --> 00:08:45.440
<v Speaker 1>and that is the one that exists in the cities

153
00:08:45.480 --> 00:08:48.600
<v Speaker 1>and municipalities, et cetera. The one that should exist at

154
00:08:48.600 --> 00:08:52.879
<v Speaker 1>the state level is being undermined and gutted all the

155
00:08:52.960 --> 00:08:57.159
<v Speaker 1>time by Jared Polis and the Colorado Democratic Party. So

156
00:08:57.240 --> 00:09:01.759
<v Speaker 1>the one tiered justice system we have have is in

157
00:09:01.840 --> 00:09:05.279
<v Speaker 1>the cities and towns and villages. The one they want

158
00:09:05.320 --> 00:09:08.039
<v Speaker 1>to do away with is the one we have. You

159
00:09:08.080 --> 00:09:10.159
<v Speaker 1>can't call what we have at the state level now

160
00:09:11.200 --> 00:09:13.799
<v Speaker 1>a justice system, not the way that the people of

161
00:09:13.840 --> 00:09:16.039
<v Speaker 1>the state would want it. You have a lot of good,

162
00:09:16.039 --> 00:09:20.080
<v Speaker 1>hardworking people in it, but you got the politicians undermining

163
00:09:20.200 --> 00:09:24.159
<v Speaker 1>the good hardworking people within that state justice system. So no,

164
00:09:24.320 --> 00:09:26.879
<v Speaker 1>we got a one tiered system now. It is in

165
00:09:26.919 --> 00:09:30.360
<v Speaker 1>the municipalities, and the Denver Post and the rest of

166
00:09:30.360 --> 00:09:32.120
<v Speaker 1>the Colorado Democratic Party want.

167
00:09:32.000 --> 00:09:32.720
<v Speaker 2>To take that away.

<v Speaker 2>You're on the Dankpla Show.

171
00:09:45.919 --> 00:09:49.360
<v Speaker 3>And now back to the Dan Kaplis Show podcast. See.

172
00:09:49.360 --> 00:09:51.000
<v Speaker 1>One of the topics we're going to have on the

173
00:09:51.000 --> 00:09:55.519
<v Speaker 1>show today is is just the surge in Christianity in

174
00:09:55.600 --> 00:09:58.279
<v Speaker 1>Colorado and listen, it may very well be the same

175
00:09:58.320 --> 00:10:01.639
<v Speaker 1>in Judaism. It might be and other faiths as well.

176
00:10:01.960 --> 00:10:04.240
<v Speaker 1>You know, I happen to be Catholic, and so I

177
00:10:04.279 --> 00:10:06.840
<v Speaker 1>see it in the Catholic Church and you can also

178
00:10:06.879 --> 00:10:09.320
<v Speaker 1>see it very much on the ground and other Christian

179
00:10:09.480 --> 00:10:11.879
<v Speaker 1>denominations and just want to talk about and you can

180
00:10:11.879 --> 00:10:15.639
<v Speaker 1>see in the numbers it's happening nationally as well. Just

181
00:10:15.919 --> 00:10:21.480
<v Speaker 1>what you think is behind that and how to keep

182
00:10:21.519 --> 00:10:24.120
<v Speaker 1>this growth going in the future. So it's just it's

183
00:10:24.120 --> 00:10:26.279
<v Speaker 1>a fascinating thing to see. It's a really cool thing

184
00:10:26.320 --> 00:10:28.840
<v Speaker 1>to see. There are some theories that it kind of

185
00:10:28.879 --> 00:10:31.879
<v Speaker 1>lines up with with Trump getting this second term and

186
00:10:32.240 --> 00:10:36.240
<v Speaker 1>Americans just feeling freed, you know, freed from the cancel culture,

187
00:10:36.279 --> 00:10:39.759
<v Speaker 1>et cetera. But I can tell you anecdotally, and you

188
00:10:39.759 --> 00:10:43.840
<v Speaker 1>shouldn't even say anecdotally because it's all the time, just

189
00:10:43.919 --> 00:10:47.679
<v Speaker 1>the numbers at church and you know, depending upon we

190
00:10:47.720 --> 00:10:50.039
<v Speaker 1>have a home parish. But we bounce around some just

191
00:10:50.080 --> 00:10:52.840
<v Speaker 1>depending upon what's going on that week, maybe where I'm

192
00:10:52.840 --> 00:10:55.360
<v Speaker 1>trying a case where where some family stuff's.

193
00:10:55.000 --> 00:10:58.440
<v Speaker 2>Happening, but it's just all over the place.

194
00:10:58.519 --> 00:11:00.600
<v Speaker 1>It's not like, okay, we go to these churches and

195
00:11:00.639 --> 00:11:03.200
<v Speaker 1>they're jammed and then the other one's crickets. Now it's

196
00:11:03.399 --> 00:11:06.440
<v Speaker 1>all over the place, which makes it a little tough

197
00:11:06.480 --> 00:11:07.639
<v Speaker 1>if you're looking for parking.

198
00:11:07.840 --> 00:11:08.039
<v Speaker 2>Right.

199
00:11:08.159 --> 00:11:11.600
<v Speaker 1>But yesterday I thought, okay, you know, I'll head over

200
00:11:11.759 --> 00:11:13.679
<v Speaker 1>hit confession on my way into work.

201
00:11:13.519 --> 00:11:14.000
<v Speaker 2>Et cetera.

202
00:11:14.320 --> 00:11:16.519
<v Speaker 1>And I'm usually at work very very very early, but

203
00:11:16.559 --> 00:11:19.240
<v Speaker 1>I got my stuff done and confession starts at eight.

204
00:11:19.840 --> 00:11:22.240
<v Speaker 1>I walk in at eight. How many people do you

205
00:11:22.240 --> 00:11:24.679
<v Speaker 1>think we're in line for confession at eight in the morning?

206
00:11:25.320 --> 00:11:25.519
<v Speaker 3>Ran?

207
00:11:25.559 --> 00:11:27.480
<v Speaker 2>How many people do you think we're in line for

208
00:11:27.639 --> 00:11:29.799
<v Speaker 2>confession at eight in the morning. Eleven?

209
00:11:30.639 --> 00:11:33.440
<v Speaker 1>It was probably close to one hundred, oh wow, And

210
00:11:33.559 --> 00:11:35.840
<v Speaker 1>so it was. Then it was over a two hour

211
00:11:35.879 --> 00:11:39.519
<v Speaker 1>a way, which, hey, it's great, but it's remarkable. And

212
00:11:39.559 --> 00:11:41.360
<v Speaker 1>then you know, in the middle of that, there was

213
00:11:41.399 --> 00:11:43.879
<v Speaker 1>a full mass, like the normal nine o'clock mass. I

214
00:11:43.879 --> 00:11:45.799
<v Speaker 1>thought I'd be out of there long before the nine

215
00:11:45.799 --> 00:11:48.080
<v Speaker 1>o'clock mass, and the nine o'clock Mass was jammed. But

216
00:11:48.480 --> 00:11:50.360
<v Speaker 1>and then people say, well it's Holy week, but you

217
00:11:50.360 --> 00:11:54.200
<v Speaker 1>know what, let's say bless me father. I've said my

218
00:11:54.240 --> 00:11:56.480
<v Speaker 1>last confession was I think three months three months ago,

219
00:11:56.960 --> 00:11:59.480
<v Speaker 1>but that wasn't a Holy week then. And the last

220
00:11:59.480 --> 00:12:01.600
<v Speaker 1>time I went, there are about one hundred people in line.

221
00:12:02.200 --> 00:12:04.759
<v Speaker 1>So I'm just telling you, and this is happening all

222
00:12:04.879 --> 00:12:08.240
<v Speaker 1>over the place, and just just as surge in Christianity,

223
00:12:08.279 --> 00:12:10.200
<v Speaker 1>and we may hear from our Jewish brothers and sisters,

224
00:12:10.240 --> 00:12:11.080
<v Speaker 1>it's the same there.

225
00:12:12.039 --> 00:12:14.720
<v Speaker 2>But yeah, it is a beautiful.

226
00:12:14.279 --> 00:12:18.360
<v Speaker 1>Remarkable thing to behold, and it ties into something else

227
00:12:18.399 --> 00:12:20.159
<v Speaker 1>I want to get to, probably in the next segment.

228
00:12:20.720 --> 00:12:25.559
<v Speaker 1>But some polling reported on by Newsweek that that young

229
00:12:25.639 --> 00:12:31.039
<v Speaker 1>voters are now solidly Republican. And you talk about sea

230
00:12:31.120 --> 00:12:33.240
<v Speaker 1>change kind of stuff, because we talk all the time about,

231
00:12:34.480 --> 00:12:36.480
<v Speaker 1>you know, voters of color, and when we start to

232
00:12:36.480 --> 00:12:39.720
<v Speaker 1>see the shift happen there, generally that's going to be

233
00:12:39.879 --> 00:12:42.200
<v Speaker 1>death for the modern Democratic Party and then the GOP

234
00:12:42.480 --> 00:12:45.399
<v Speaker 1>just has to deliver, right, And we're starting to see

235
00:12:45.399 --> 00:12:49.279
<v Speaker 1>a shift there, but a dramatic shift among young voters.

236
00:12:49.759 --> 00:12:51.480
<v Speaker 1>And why do you think that is? I would love

237
00:12:51.519 --> 00:12:54.120
<v Speaker 1>your take. D An five seven, seven, three nine. You

238
00:12:54.159 --> 00:12:56.679
<v Speaker 1>will be shocked to hear that. I do have a

239
00:12:56.720 --> 00:12:59.480
<v Speaker 1>take of my own on that. One of the goofier

240
00:12:59.559 --> 00:13:03.200
<v Speaker 1>things I've ever seen in my life is how you

241
00:13:03.360 --> 00:13:06.720
<v Speaker 1>now have all of these prominent national Democrats, and I

242
00:13:06.759 --> 00:13:09.480
<v Speaker 1>put prominent in quotes, I should say more precisely, they're

243
00:13:09.519 --> 00:13:15.320
<v Speaker 1>well known, who are now their cause? Their cause is

244
00:13:15.360 --> 00:13:20.639
<v Speaker 1>this alleged MS thirteen gang member who was deported to

245
00:13:20.919 --> 00:13:22.519
<v Speaker 1>El Salvador, which happens to.

246
00:13:22.480 --> 00:13:24.039
<v Speaker 2>Be where he's from.

247
00:13:24.519 --> 00:13:27.080
<v Speaker 1>There's a question as to whether a mistake was made

248
00:13:27.120 --> 00:13:30.519
<v Speaker 1>procedurally and whether he should not have been deported to

249
00:13:30.559 --> 00:13:35.919
<v Speaker 1>El Salvador, and the administration says no, the deportation was proper, etc.

250
00:13:36.240 --> 00:13:37.879
<v Speaker 2>But there's a question out there on that.

251
00:13:38.200 --> 00:13:42.360
<v Speaker 1>But what's so fascinating to me is that this has

252
00:13:42.440 --> 00:13:45.440
<v Speaker 1>become the cause for so many Democrats. The Maryland man

253
00:13:45.639 --> 00:13:49.600
<v Speaker 1>Kilmarrobrego Garcia, the Maryland man got to bring him back. Well,

254
00:13:49.639 --> 00:13:52.360
<v Speaker 1>they don't care at all, right about the Maryland woman

255
00:13:52.519 --> 00:13:57.159
<v Speaker 1>just absolutely viciously murdered by somebody here illegally, not by

256
00:13:57.720 --> 00:14:00.720
<v Speaker 1>this particular person here illegally. But you don't hear these

257
00:14:00.759 --> 00:14:03.559
<v Speaker 1>democrats stepping up and talking about.

258
00:14:03.360 --> 00:14:05.639
<v Speaker 2>The Maryland woman at all. We'll hear from her mother

259
00:14:06.080 --> 00:14:06.519
<v Speaker 2>in a bit.

260
00:14:06.919 --> 00:14:10.519
<v Speaker 1>But listen to Tim Walls now saying, wait a second,

261
00:14:10.559 --> 00:14:12.960
<v Speaker 1>if you're not speaking up for the Maryland man.

262
00:14:12.919 --> 00:14:15.200
<v Speaker 2>Well there'll be no one left.

263
00:14:16.039 --> 00:14:19.039
<v Speaker 4>I have come to understand what Donald Trump, what pops

264
00:14:19.039 --> 00:14:21.399
<v Speaker 4>into his head and he says he's going to carry

265
00:14:21.399 --> 00:14:24.000
<v Speaker 4>it out. I once again, he talked about the tariffs,

266
00:14:24.200 --> 00:14:26.840
<v Speaker 4>he talked about you know, he's going to deport people,

267
00:14:26.840 --> 00:14:27.679
<v Speaker 4>and this whole thing.

268
00:14:27.559 --> 00:14:29.679
<v Speaker 1>With mister So his first line of attack on Trump

269
00:14:29.799 --> 00:14:31.039
<v Speaker 1>is he keeps his promises.

270
00:14:31.039 --> 00:14:32.000
<v Speaker 2>You're off to a good start.

271
00:14:32.639 --> 00:14:33.519
<v Speaker 3>Braille Garcia.

272
00:14:34.000 --> 00:14:37.120
<v Speaker 4>It's that old wisdom and terrifying is if you're not

273
00:14:37.200 --> 00:14:40.200
<v Speaker 4>speaking up for this man, there will be no one left.

274
00:14:39.960 --> 00:14:44.720
<v Speaker 2>To speak up for you. Do they have legalized marijuana

275
00:14:44.759 --> 00:14:45.480
<v Speaker 2>in Minnesota?

276
00:14:45.679 --> 00:14:46.559
<v Speaker 3>Can not sure?

277
00:14:46.639 --> 00:14:49.360
<v Speaker 1>Oh my lord, one of the stupidest things I've ever said,

278
00:14:49.840 --> 00:14:53.360
<v Speaker 1>he's ever said. And I know he's not a stupid man.

279
00:14:53.879 --> 00:14:57.519
<v Speaker 1>Why is he saying things like this that if we

280
00:14:57.600 --> 00:15:00.200
<v Speaker 1>don't speak up for this guy. Have you seen this

281
00:15:00.200 --> 00:15:03.279
<v Speaker 1>guy's history, If we don't speak up for him.

282
00:15:03.159 --> 00:15:05.000
<v Speaker 2>There'll be nobody left to speak up for you.

283
00:15:05.559 --> 00:15:08.159
<v Speaker 1>Please keep saying that, Tim, if there was a fund

284
00:15:08.279 --> 00:15:10.960
<v Speaker 1>riding we could contribute to and be sure it wouldn't

285
00:15:10.960 --> 00:15:13.399
<v Speaker 1>get siphoned off by Walls for other stuff or by

286
00:15:13.399 --> 00:15:16.720
<v Speaker 1>the Democratic Party for other stuff. I would contribute to

287
00:15:16.759 --> 00:15:20.919
<v Speaker 1>a fund that guaranteed that Tim Walls keeps saying these things.

288
00:15:21.440 --> 00:15:24.679
<v Speaker 4>There's Chris Krabs that they're going after for simply I

289
00:15:24.720 --> 00:15:25.519
<v Speaker 4>know Chris Crabs.

290
00:15:25.679 --> 00:15:26.559
<v Speaker 2>He's a Republican.

291
00:15:26.799 --> 00:15:29.279
<v Speaker 4>He was there to provide election security in twenty twenty.

292
00:15:29.320 --> 00:15:31.879
<v Speaker 4>He did it, and all he said was it was

293
00:15:31.919 --> 00:15:32.600
<v Speaker 4>a fair election.

294
00:15:32.720 --> 00:15:36.080
<v Speaker 1>They're come, boy, I hope they keep riding this horse, right,

295
00:15:36.120 --> 00:15:37.720
<v Speaker 1>and he's not alone. But then let's go over to

296
00:15:37.759 --> 00:15:40.679
<v Speaker 1>CNN and they've got some actual polling, which I know

297
00:15:40.759 --> 00:15:41.679
<v Speaker 1>Walls doesn't like.

298
00:15:41.759 --> 00:15:44.000
<v Speaker 2>Very much because it's never very good for him.

299
00:15:44.440 --> 00:15:47.679
<v Speaker 1>But CNN talks about what the people of America want

300
00:15:48.720 --> 00:15:49.360
<v Speaker 1>to port.

301
00:15:49.240 --> 00:15:53.879
<v Speaker 5>All undocumented immigrants, voters favoring the government trying to deport

302
00:15:54.080 --> 00:15:57.080
<v Speaker 5>all eleven million of them. Back in twenty sixteen, just

303
00:15:57.279 --> 00:16:00.159
<v Speaker 5>thirty eight percent of voters wanted the government to to

304
00:16:00.200 --> 00:16:03.639
<v Speaker 5>try to the port all eleven million undocumented immigrants.

305
00:16:03.799 --> 00:16:05.519
<v Speaker 3>Compare it to where we are in twenty.

306
00:16:05.320 --> 00:16:09.639
<v Speaker 5>Twenty five, fifty six percent. The majority the American people

307
00:16:09.679 --> 00:16:12.279
<v Speaker 5>have come a long way on this issue, much closer

308
00:16:12.360 --> 00:16:14.080
<v Speaker 5>to Donald Trump, and I think that's a big part

309
00:16:14.080 --> 00:16:17.039
<v Speaker 5>of the reason why Americans are increasingly saying the country

310
00:16:17.080 --> 00:16:19.200
<v Speaker 5>is on the right track when it comes to immigration policy,

311
00:16:19.279 --> 00:16:21.519
<v Speaker 5>and why Donald Trump's not approval rating on that issue

312
00:16:21.679 --> 00:16:22.960
<v Speaker 5>is in the positive.

313
00:16:23.080 --> 00:16:26.879
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, which really bodes quite poorly right for Michael Bennett

314
00:16:26.879 --> 00:16:29.480
<v Speaker 1>an Fhelwise, whoever the nominey is, we're assuming it will

315
00:16:29.519 --> 00:16:31.000
<v Speaker 1>be Bennett, and Nanny.

316
00:16:30.759 --> 00:16:33.240
<v Speaker 2>Appears to have it wired. Speaking of which, I've got

317
00:16:33.240 --> 00:16:33.960
<v Speaker 2>to get to this.

318
00:16:33.919 --> 00:16:40.000
<v Speaker 1>Great clapback from Mayor webs supporting Bennett and going after

319
00:16:40.080 --> 00:16:43.159
<v Speaker 1>the Denver Post and the post saying the obvious common

320
00:16:43.200 --> 00:16:46.919
<v Speaker 1>sense thing, no Pennant should resign his Senate seat to

321
00:16:47.039 --> 00:16:50.480
<v Speaker 1>run for governors. So we'll get to that clapback after

322
00:16:50.639 --> 00:16:56.279
<v Speaker 1>the next break. But extraordinarily vulnerable is Bennett Wiser as well,

323
00:16:56.279 --> 00:16:59.919
<v Speaker 1>but Bennett Moore. So when it comes to protecting those

324
00:17:00.240 --> 00:17:04.440
<v Speaker 1>illegally who commit other crimes, well, Wiser's equally vulnerable on that.

325
00:17:04.839 --> 00:17:08.160
<v Speaker 1>But they have been so extreme on that, so extreme

326
00:17:08.200 --> 00:17:10.319
<v Speaker 1>on that in the past. The challenge for the GOP

327
00:17:10.480 --> 00:17:14.240
<v Speaker 1>nominee is going to be finding a way to let

328
00:17:14.319 --> 00:17:18.880
<v Speaker 1>the people of Colorado know that, right, because Bennett and Wiser,

329
00:17:18.920 --> 00:17:21.759
<v Speaker 1>whoever it is, they're going to be so protected by

330
00:17:21.920 --> 00:17:25.880
<v Speaker 1>almost all of the Colorado press that the challenge is

331
00:17:25.920 --> 00:17:27.920
<v Speaker 1>going to be how do you get the truth to

332
00:17:28.079 --> 00:17:32.400
<v Speaker 1>enough people to be able to defeat them on election day?

333
00:17:32.480 --> 00:17:34.759
<v Speaker 1>That's that's going to be the big challenge. Because you've

334
00:17:34.799 --> 00:17:39.160
<v Speaker 1>got the truth, you've got that electoral ammal, but how

335
00:17:39.160 --> 00:17:41.400
<v Speaker 1>do you get it to the people when you've got

336
00:17:41.440 --> 00:17:45.680
<v Speaker 1>almost all of the media determined to make sure they

337
00:17:45.680 --> 00:17:47.640
<v Speaker 1>don't learn the truth because they can't handle the truth?

338
00:17:47.720 --> 00:17:47.880
<v Speaker 2>Right?

339
00:17:47.880 --> 00:17:50.680
<v Speaker 1>I mean, that's that's the idea of this leftist media.

346
00:18:10.160 --> 00:18:14.119

347
00:18:13.799 --> 00:18:15.759

356
00:18:41.359 --> 00:18:45.200
<v Speaker 1>Certainly within the Catholic Christian community. It is so why

357
00:18:45.279 --> 00:18:47.480
<v Speaker 1>do you think that's happening? And what's it going to

358

<v Speaker 1>take for that to continue? Three or three someone three

<v Speaker 2>Seven three nine.

362
00:18:53.680 --> 00:18:56.480
<v Speaker 1>I was telling the story of going to confession yesterday

363
00:18:56.799 --> 00:18:59.640
<v Speaker 1>two hour line and God loved the priest for hanging

364
00:18:59.680 --> 00:19:00.000
<v Speaker 1>in there.

365
00:19:00.240 --> 00:19:00.839
<v Speaker 2>It's one thing.

366
00:19:00.799 --> 00:19:02.519
<v Speaker 1>Ryan, when I was back in the seminary, and that

367
00:19:02.559 --> 00:19:04.920
<v Speaker 1>was high school, four high school years, you know, you

368
00:19:04.920 --> 00:19:07.400
<v Speaker 1>would think about you think of what would it be

369
00:19:07.519 --> 00:19:08.799
<v Speaker 1>like to hear these confessions.

370
00:19:08.839 --> 00:19:10.440
<v Speaker 2>I wonder what you're going to hear in there.

371
00:19:10.839 --> 00:19:13.599
<v Speaker 1>And it's not like you do practice confessions or anything,

372
00:19:13.680 --> 00:19:17.079
<v Speaker 1>but yeah, what would that be like? That would have

373
00:19:17.160 --> 00:19:19.039
<v Speaker 1>to be fascinating. Now I can't even talk to my

374
00:19:19.160 --> 00:19:20.400
<v Speaker 1>uncle about it. You know.

375
00:19:20.599 --> 00:19:21.599
<v Speaker 2>I called him the other night.

376
00:19:21.720 --> 00:19:24.119
<v Speaker 1>I mean I called him to congratulate him on I

377
00:19:24.160 --> 00:19:27.200
<v Speaker 1>think his sixty seventh year as a priest anniversary. And

378
00:19:27.240 --> 00:19:29.680
<v Speaker 1>he's still doing three or four messes a week, incredible

379
00:19:29.759 --> 00:19:32.920
<v Speaker 1>and call him in his happy anniversary one anniversary. I mean,

380
00:19:32.960 --> 00:19:36.200
<v Speaker 1>he'd completely forgotten, you know, because he's so busy being

381
00:19:36.240 --> 00:19:36.640
<v Speaker 1>a priest.

382
00:19:36.640 --> 00:19:38.519
<v Speaker 2>He forgot that was his anniversary.

383
00:19:38.559 --> 00:19:40.599
<v Speaker 1>But I can never even talk to him about the

384
00:19:40.640 --> 00:19:44.680
<v Speaker 1>confession stuff because that's so locked up, that's so sacred.

385
00:19:44.759 --> 00:19:47.720
<v Speaker 1>You can't even hint at what's happening there. The closest

386
00:19:47.759 --> 00:19:50.279
<v Speaker 1>I've ever come to any good confession stories from him,

387
00:19:50.319 --> 00:19:51.119
<v Speaker 1>and it's not like I.

388
00:19:51.119 --> 00:19:53.599
<v Speaker 2>Push for it is I called him one day.

389
00:19:53.759 --> 00:19:56.279
<v Speaker 1>I think about, you know, the Bears had lost a

390
00:19:56.279 --> 00:19:58.880
<v Speaker 1>tough game or something, and I called him one day

391
00:19:59.119 --> 00:20:01.839
<v Speaker 1>because he's back at you. I'll go obviously, and and

392
00:20:01.920 --> 00:20:04.720
<v Speaker 1>he's whispery.

393
00:20:04.960 --> 00:20:06.160
<v Speaker 2>I say, hey, I get you a bad time.

394
00:20:06.240 --> 00:20:10.759
<v Speaker 1>He said, no, I'm just hearing a confession and I'll

395
00:20:10.799 --> 00:20:11.400
<v Speaker 1>get you later.

396
00:20:11.480 --> 00:20:13.559
<v Speaker 2>He said, no, I just told the guy that that

397
00:20:13.640 --> 00:20:14.480
<v Speaker 2>it's God calling.

398
00:20:15.000 --> 00:20:19.599
<v Speaker 1>So it was not quite Obviously, President Trump, you will

399
00:20:19.640 --> 00:20:20.000
<v Speaker 1>said that.

400
00:20:20.559 --> 00:20:24.079
<v Speaker 2>You aren't worried about allies broke closer to China, so

401
00:20:24.279 --> 00:20:25.000
<v Speaker 2>souls from.

402
00:20:24.920 --> 00:20:27.599
<v Speaker 3>Terras And this week we saw Chinese president and visit

403
00:20:27.960 --> 00:20:29.359
<v Speaker 3>three our allies.

404
00:20:29.599 --> 00:20:30.519
<v Speaker 2>Should you be worried?

405
00:20:30.759 --> 00:20:39.359
<v Speaker 1>No, no, nobody, nobody can compete with us, nobody name.

406
00:20:40.519 --> 00:20:42.880
<v Speaker 2>Why didn't we have the phone call an We're going

407
00:20:42.920 --> 00:20:45.000
<v Speaker 2>to be a good deal. We'll have I think we

408
00:20:45.119 --> 00:20:47.000
<v Speaker 2>have a I think we're going to make a very

409
00:20:47.079 --> 00:20:47.960
<v Speaker 2>good deal with Channa.

410
00:20:49.480 --> 00:20:51.839
<v Speaker 1>I think I think that you will see it will

411
00:20:51.839 --> 00:20:53.200
<v Speaker 1>make a very good deal with Shadow.

412
00:20:53.599 --> 00:20:55.200
<v Speaker 2>And that's going to be fascinating.

413
00:20:55.240 --> 00:20:57.200
<v Speaker 1>We've seen it over and over again, right like Wiley,

414
00:20:57.279 --> 00:21:01.279
<v Speaker 1>Coyote and Roadrunner, and that is the Democrats freak over

415
00:21:01.319 --> 00:21:01.880
<v Speaker 1>this right.

416
00:21:02.240 --> 00:21:02.920
<v Speaker 2>Uh troup.

417
00:21:03.000 --> 00:21:06.759
<v Speaker 1>He's crushing the economy, disaster, everybody in breadlines. And then

418
00:21:07.440 --> 00:21:10.759
<v Speaker 1>Trump's going to pull this off, and then the market's

419
00:21:10.759 --> 00:21:12.599
<v Speaker 1>going to soar. Everything's going to be better than it

420
00:21:12.759 --> 00:21:14.519
<v Speaker 1>was before, right because we're going to be in a

421
00:21:14.559 --> 00:21:17.039
<v Speaker 1>better place after we get whatever deal he's going to get,

422
00:21:17.039 --> 00:21:19.440
<v Speaker 1>even if it's not a perfect deal, maybe it will

423
00:21:19.480 --> 00:21:21.200
<v Speaker 1>be a big, beautiful deal, but we're going to be

424
00:21:21.200 --> 00:21:24.839
<v Speaker 1>better off than we were before. Trump's going to emerge victorious,

425
00:21:24.920 --> 00:21:28.519
<v Speaker 1>as he almost always does, and the Democrats are going

426
00:21:28.559 --> 00:21:31.039
<v Speaker 1>to be left even worse for it, right because right

427
00:21:31.079 --> 00:21:34.759
<v Speaker 1>now they are openly rooting against the success of America, right,

428
00:21:35.240 --> 00:21:38.279
<v Speaker 1>and so they're going to end up worse for it.

429
00:21:39.160 --> 00:21:41.319
<v Speaker 1>I want to get to this. This is a Mayor

430
00:21:41.359 --> 00:21:44.200
<v Speaker 1>Wellington Web for those new to the area. He was

431
00:21:44.279 --> 00:21:47.599
<v Speaker 1>mayor of Denver for a long time. And you know,

432
00:21:47.680 --> 00:21:50.039
<v Speaker 1>one of my favorite Democrats. I mean, we disagree on

433
00:21:50.160 --> 00:21:55.680
<v Speaker 1>virtually everything in my constitutionally protected opinion. His administration came

434
00:21:55.720 --> 00:21:58.319
<v Speaker 1>after me and tried to personally destroy me, is the

435
00:21:58.359 --> 00:22:02.279
<v Speaker 1>way I look at it. When when I was pursuing

436
00:22:02.880 --> 00:22:07.720
<v Speaker 1>on Channel four an investigation of the Web administration at

437
00:22:07.759 --> 00:22:09.759
<v Speaker 1>that time in connection with Tia.

438
00:22:10.119 --> 00:22:11.400
<v Speaker 2>And but Meri.

439
00:22:11.440 --> 00:22:14.799
<v Speaker 1>Webb's one of my absolute favorite Democrats because you know

440
00:22:14.960 --> 00:22:17.480
<v Speaker 1>he he's a big time guy.

441
00:22:17.920 --> 00:22:18.559
<v Speaker 2>You know what I mean.

442
00:22:20.480 --> 00:22:22.440
<v Speaker 1>I know that I'm going to disagree on the big

443
00:22:22.480 --> 00:22:25.440
<v Speaker 1>issues of the day with virtually every big time Democrat.

444
00:22:25.480 --> 00:22:27.400
<v Speaker 2>But give me a big time guy or.

445
00:22:27.400 --> 00:22:32.079
<v Speaker 1>Gale instead of these small time operators. And and look

446
00:22:32.079 --> 00:22:34.480
<v Speaker 1>at the small time operators we have. We used to

447
00:22:34.519 --> 00:22:38.519
<v Speaker 1>have big time Democrats like you know a Wellington Webb,

448
00:22:39.240 --> 00:22:40.160
<v Speaker 1>Gary Hart.

449
00:22:39.880 --> 00:22:44.039
<v Speaker 2>Minus monkey business. You know, a Tim Worth and there

450
00:22:44.079 --> 00:22:47.680
<v Speaker 2>are others. But these are these are big Todd Dotty Lamb.

451
00:22:47.720 --> 00:22:51.839
<v Speaker 1>These are big time people who would just they'd sit

452
00:22:51.880 --> 00:22:54.079
<v Speaker 1>down with you, they'd talk to you, they'd look you

453
00:22:54.079 --> 00:22:56.079
<v Speaker 1>in the eye. They'd tell you what they believed, why

454
00:22:56.119 --> 00:22:58.200
<v Speaker 1>they believed it. They'd listen to what you believe and

455
00:22:58.240 --> 00:23:01.880
<v Speaker 1>why you believe it, and you'd have the conversation. We

456
00:23:01.960 --> 00:23:05.440
<v Speaker 1>got a bunch of political midgets running around.

457
00:23:05.519 --> 00:23:09.039
<v Speaker 6>Didn't Wellington web also have a meeting with you where

458
00:23:09.039 --> 00:23:11.920
<v Speaker 6>he admitted he was wrong or something about what happened

459
00:23:11.920 --> 00:23:12.319
<v Speaker 6>to you was.

460
00:23:12.319 --> 00:23:13.240
<v Speaker 3>What a cool story?

461
00:23:13.319 --> 00:23:15.640
<v Speaker 1>Right? Yeah? He called me up one day and he said, hey, Dan,

462
00:23:15.759 --> 00:23:18.279
<v Speaker 1>let's let's meet for lunch. He said, I've just heard

463
00:23:18.319 --> 00:23:22.400
<v Speaker 1>about what you think happened here. And he never admitted anything.

464
00:23:22.799 --> 00:23:26.720
<v Speaker 1>But what he said was he said, listen, man, if

465
00:23:27.039 --> 00:23:31.440
<v Speaker 1>that happened way wrong, okay, and I'm very sorry that happened.

466
00:23:31.799 --> 00:23:32.599
<v Speaker 2>If that happened.

467
00:23:32.759 --> 00:23:35.359
<v Speaker 1>He didn't admit anything, but but you know, that's what

468
00:23:35.440 --> 00:23:37.640
<v Speaker 1>I'm talking about, man and up or woman and up.

469
00:23:37.839 --> 00:23:40.319
<v Speaker 2>Just you know. But but we got a bunch of

470
00:23:40.400 --> 00:23:41.279
<v Speaker 2>small timers.

471
00:23:41.279 --> 00:23:43.680
<v Speaker 1>Now you look at Mike Johnson, you look at Michael Bennett,

472
00:23:43.720 --> 00:23:45.319
<v Speaker 1>these are small time operators.

473
00:23:45.319 --> 00:23:48.599
<v Speaker 6>Well the guy you just named, could you imagine Jared

474
00:23:48.640 --> 00:23:51.039
<v Speaker 6>Polis add to that list doing what Wellington Webb did

475
00:23:51.119 --> 00:23:53.480
<v Speaker 6>right there at one point in time, at one point

476
00:23:53.559 --> 00:23:54.279
<v Speaker 6>right yeah, yeah.

477
00:23:54.319 --> 00:23:55.160
<v Speaker 2>I don't know if.

478
00:23:55.079 --> 00:23:59.480
<v Speaker 1>Polish changed dramatically right around COVID, But before that we

479
00:23:59.599 --> 00:24:02.039
<v Speaker 1>used to agree on virtually everything. But we'd have lots

480
00:24:02.039 --> 00:24:05.440
<v Speaker 1>of conversations on air and they were always pleasant and fun.

481
00:24:06.200 --> 00:24:09.000
<v Speaker 1>And and then some big switch got thrown with him.

482
00:24:09.160 --> 00:24:11.160
<v Speaker 1>So no that that Jared poul Us of Today, No,

483
00:24:11.319 --> 00:24:14.799
<v Speaker 1>could not see that. At one point in time, John

484
00:24:14.839 --> 00:24:17.799
<v Speaker 1>Hick and Looper, Yes, right, yeah, he came on the show.

485
00:24:17.839 --> 00:24:19.279
<v Speaker 1>He used to come on the show all the time.

486
00:24:19.279 --> 00:24:22.200
<v Speaker 1>We'd have these great conversations everything else. And then I

487
00:24:22.279 --> 00:24:24.799
<v Speaker 1>ran in a charity dinner once and he just said, hey, man,

488
00:24:25.440 --> 00:24:27.400
<v Speaker 1>my folks tell me I have nothing to gain by

489
00:24:27.400 --> 00:24:28.119
<v Speaker 1>going on the show.

490
00:24:28.319 --> 00:24:29.599
<v Speaker 3>Well that's honest.

491
00:24:29.720 --> 00:24:32.960
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, yeah, right right, So Hick and Looper, I don't

492
00:24:32.960 --> 00:24:36.240
<v Speaker 1>put in the same small timer bucket that I put

493
00:24:36.240 --> 00:24:38.480
<v Speaker 1>a Mike Johnston or Michael Bennett.

494
00:24:38.799 --> 00:24:40.680
<v Speaker 2>You know, I still disagree with Hick and Looper.

495
00:24:40.400 --> 00:24:42.799
<v Speaker 1>And all that stuff, but oh, but where are the

496
00:24:42.920 --> 00:24:44.200
<v Speaker 1>big timers now?

497
00:24:44.400 --> 00:24:47.680
<v Speaker 6>Bennett has done a bit by his standards of a

498
00:24:47.799 --> 00:24:50.519
<v Speaker 6>media blitz. You know, he was on Colorado's Morning News.

499
00:24:51.680 --> 00:24:54.400
<v Speaker 6>Kelly's laughing. He was that's a great show. Well, no

500
00:24:54.519 --> 00:24:56.279
<v Speaker 6>it is, but what I'm what I'm getting at is

501
00:24:56.599 --> 00:24:58.720
<v Speaker 6>because now he's in a gubernatorial race.

502
00:24:58.920 --> 00:25:02.039
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, do you think maybe he might come on with you?

503
00:25:02.039 --> 00:25:03.440
<v Speaker 2>No, because I hope he does.

504
00:25:03.519 --> 00:25:06.319
<v Speaker 1>But listen, we were, you know, back when Capitalist and

505
00:25:06.319 --> 00:25:08.839
<v Speaker 1>Silverman was like the show, and it was the show

506
00:25:08.880 --> 00:25:09.599
<v Speaker 1>for a long time.

507
00:25:09.960 --> 00:25:13.119
<v Speaker 2>Everybody came on, right, everybody from both sides came on.

508
00:25:13.160 --> 00:25:14.880
<v Speaker 2>Jimmy Carter came on. Everybody came on.

509
00:25:14.960 --> 00:25:15.720
<v Speaker 3>He was the place that.

510
00:25:15.680 --> 00:25:16.640
<v Speaker 2>Bennett never would.

511
00:25:17.359 --> 00:25:20.640
<v Speaker 1>And then ever, even then, he met the guy scared

512
00:25:20.680 --> 00:25:24.319
<v Speaker 1>of his own shadow. You heard him on CNN when

513
00:25:24.319 --> 00:25:26.200
<v Speaker 1>they ask him a simple question, so are you taking

514
00:25:26.240 --> 00:25:29.000
<v Speaker 1>money for you're not taking money from billionaires? And you know,

515
00:25:30.079 --> 00:25:31.839
<v Speaker 1>you would have thought the guy had a stroke. And

516
00:25:31.880 --> 00:25:33.920
<v Speaker 1>then in the and he saw I don't understand your question.

517
00:25:34.240 --> 00:25:37.559
<v Speaker 1>I mean, no, the guy scared of his own shadow.

518
00:25:38.400 --> 00:25:40.519
<v Speaker 1>And then you heard with Rob Dawson from the News

519
00:25:40.519 --> 00:25:42.640
<v Speaker 1>throw Oh yeah, when he and Rob is the most

520
00:25:42.720 --> 00:25:44.440
<v Speaker 1>you know, down the middle kind of guy you can get.

521
00:25:44.480 --> 00:25:46.279
<v Speaker 2>And Rob just asked the dis questions. So here, some

522
00:25:46.279 --> 00:25:47.720
<v Speaker 2>people say you're not in colorado't know?

523
00:25:47.839 --> 00:25:51.240
<v Speaker 1>And Bennett blows a fuse. I'm not talking about He

524
00:25:51.599 --> 00:25:53.160
<v Speaker 1>didn't like lose his mind or anything.

525
00:25:53.240 --> 00:25:54.000
<v Speaker 3>He was agitated.

526
00:25:54.039 --> 00:25:57.559
<v Speaker 1>He was, he was annoyed, Yeah, you shouldn't get annoyed

527
00:25:57.599 --> 00:25:59.680
<v Speaker 1>a question like that, but then annoyed to the point

528
00:26:00.319 --> 00:26:01.880
<v Speaker 1>he had brain gass.

529
00:26:02.400 --> 00:26:02.880
<v Speaker 3>And then he.

530
00:26:02.880 --> 00:26:07.160
<v Speaker 1>Says, no, look to official in Colorado's but Ben state

531
00:26:07.200 --> 00:26:08.000
<v Speaker 1>wide more than I have.

532
00:26:08.640 --> 00:26:10.599
<v Speaker 2>You know, have you ever seen Michael Bennett anywhere?

533
00:26:10.640 --> 00:26:12.000
<v Speaker 3>That's a pretty good Bennett impression.

534
00:26:12.480 --> 00:26:15.640
<v Speaker 1>And I don't do impressions that just naturally happened. That's

535
00:26:15.680 --> 00:26:17.279
<v Speaker 1>just and I cannot allow that to happen.

536
00:26:17.359 --> 00:26:19.480
<v Speaker 6>Here's a big question I have, Dan, and I'm just

537
00:26:20.079 --> 00:26:22.240
<v Speaker 6>calling this as like a pundit, a commentator like you

538
00:26:22.279 --> 00:26:23.880
<v Speaker 6>and I are, because we're neutral.

539
00:26:23.559 --> 00:26:26.480
<v Speaker 3>On this truly, Why hasn't Phil.

540
00:26:26.279 --> 00:26:29.680
<v Speaker 6>Wiser come out and just come out swinging on Bennett

541
00:26:29.720 --> 00:26:30.960
<v Speaker 6>holding onto his head, wants.

542
00:26:30.799 --> 00:26:35.240
<v Speaker 3>The Senate seed that's lame. He wants the Senate seats blame.

543
00:26:35.480 --> 00:26:37.240
<v Speaker 3>And what did I tell you the day this happened?

544
00:26:37.240 --> 00:26:40.400
<v Speaker 1>Now, maybe Wiser stays in the race, but but right

545
00:26:40.440 --> 00:26:43.680
<v Speaker 1>now I know dead people who are louder than Phil Wiser.

546
00:26:44.119 --> 00:26:46.559
<v Speaker 1>And you just had Michael Bennett, you know, just kick

547
00:26:46.640 --> 00:26:50.559
<v Speaker 1>him in the teeth, and so no, I mean, that's

548
00:26:50.599 --> 00:26:52.640
<v Speaker 1>what Bennett's doing. And I want to get to what

549
00:26:52.759 --> 00:26:56.079
<v Speaker 1>mere Webb trying to defend Bennett on. They said, but

550
00:26:56.119 --> 00:26:59.519
<v Speaker 1>that's what Bennett's doing, right, So he's mocking the people

551
00:26:59.519 --> 00:27:02.960
<v Speaker 1>of color and saying, oh, no, no, you.

552
00:27:02.920 --> 00:27:04.680
<v Speaker 2>Don't really need me as a senator.

553
00:27:04.759 --> 00:27:06.079
<v Speaker 1>I'm going to run for governor and I'm going to

554
00:27:06.119 --> 00:27:07.680
<v Speaker 1>hold onto this job and I'm going to appoint my

555
00:27:07.680 --> 00:27:08.400
<v Speaker 1>own successor.

556
00:27:08.440 --> 00:27:11.160
<v Speaker 2>And he's saying that so that he has that.

557
00:27:11.279 --> 00:27:14.960
<v Speaker 1>Powerful leverage to keep everybody else, including phil Wiser, in line,

558
00:27:15.839 --> 00:27:19.200
<v Speaker 1>because if phil Wiser wants that Senate appointment, well, phil

559
00:27:19.200 --> 00:27:23.880
<v Speaker 1>Wiser better play ball. And Phil Wiser is in maybe

560
00:27:23.920 --> 00:27:26.759
<v Speaker 1>one of the best positions to snare that job because

561
00:27:27.559 --> 00:27:31.680
<v Speaker 1>he's the only big announced candidate for the governor on

562
00:27:31.720 --> 00:27:34.160
<v Speaker 1>the Den side. If he gets out of the way

563
00:27:34.160 --> 00:27:36.559
<v Speaker 1>for Bennett right now, he has to be thinking, ah,

564
00:27:36.680 --> 00:27:39.799
<v Speaker 1>that gives me the inside track to get that Senate appointment.

565
00:27:39.920 --> 00:27:46.720
<v Speaker 1>So it's just that the most typical Washington DC elitist,

566
00:27:47.079 --> 00:27:50.400
<v Speaker 1>silver spoon type of move you could imagine by Bennett,

567
00:27:50.400 --> 00:27:51.039
<v Speaker 1>and it's working.

568
00:27:51.720 --> 00:27:52.400
<v Speaker 2>It's working.

569
00:27:53.079 --> 00:27:54.799
<v Speaker 1>So when we come back, I'll tell you what Webb

570
00:27:54.880 --> 00:27:56.799
<v Speaker 1>had to say, Merrit Webb had to say about that,

571
00:27:57.319 --> 00:27:59.240
<v Speaker 1>And then want to get to much more and coming

572
00:27:59.279 --> 00:27:59.920
<v Speaker 1>up at five.

573
00:27:59.759 --> 00:28:01.039
<v Speaker 2>Zero, I hope you can be here.

574
00:28:01.079 --> 00:28:04.799
<v Speaker 1>Then, really really important bill be in advanced by Democrats.

575
00:28:04.839 --> 00:28:06.839
<v Speaker 1>I'm going to praise the heck out of it in

576
00:28:06.880 --> 00:28:10.599
<v Speaker 1>the legislature. That would do something I've been demanding four

577
00:28:10.759 --> 00:28:11.839
<v Speaker 1>years be done.

578
00:28:12.079 --> 00:28:17.920
<v Speaker 2>It's on the Dan Kapla Show.

579
00:28:20.079 --> 00:28:24.200
<v Speaker 3>And now back to the Dan Kaplas Show podcast.

580
00:28:24.440 --> 00:28:30.440
<v Speaker 1>Harris absolutely should not should not run for president in

581
00:28:30.559 --> 00:28:32.519
<v Speaker 1>twenty twenty eight.

582
00:28:32.640 --> 00:28:38.000
<v Speaker 2>Now, let's let me explain what we don't need any explanation.

583
00:28:38.319 --> 00:28:40.680
<v Speaker 1>The reason I wanted to play that that's chrysalizza from

584
00:28:40.720 --> 00:28:43.519
<v Speaker 1>the left is the fact that it's even a topic

585
00:28:43.559 --> 00:28:47.480
<v Speaker 1>of conversation. Right There are so many reasons that we

586
00:28:47.519 --> 00:28:50.240
<v Speaker 1>should all be so optimistic right now about the future.

587
00:28:50.359 --> 00:28:52.880
<v Speaker 1>Colorado a tougher nut to crack, but the door's open.

588
00:28:53.720 --> 00:28:57.240
<v Speaker 1>But nationally, oh my goodness, the fact they're even talking

589
00:28:57.279 --> 00:29:00.359
<v Speaker 1>about Kamala Harris as a candidate in twenty and that

590
00:29:00.440 --> 00:29:03.480
<v Speaker 1>Tim Waltz is out there saying that crazy Tim Waltz

591
00:29:03.519 --> 00:29:07.039
<v Speaker 1>stuff right, trying to put himself in position that just

592
00:29:07.079 --> 00:29:09.440
<v Speaker 1>tells you everything you need to know. Whereas on the

593
00:29:09.440 --> 00:29:13.480
<v Speaker 1>GOP side, it is a.

594
00:29:12.200 --> 00:29:13.480
<v Speaker 2>Bounty of riches.

595
00:29:13.799 --> 00:29:16.720
<v Speaker 1>When you talk about all of the talent that's going

596
00:29:16.759 --> 00:29:20.759
<v Speaker 1>to be seeking that nomination in twenty eight, it's spectacular.

597
00:29:21.119 --> 00:29:24.359
<v Speaker 1>And it's another reason why you know, America suffered so

598
00:29:24.480 --> 00:29:27.440
<v Speaker 1>much because Trump didn't get consecutive terms, and the world

599
00:29:27.519 --> 00:29:31.519
<v Speaker 1>suffered so much because Trump didn't get consecutive terms. So

600
00:29:31.640 --> 00:29:34.160
<v Speaker 1>much of this awfulness would not have happened if he had.

601
00:29:34.680 --> 00:29:37.880
<v Speaker 1>But there are going to be some enormous advantages to

602
00:29:37.920 --> 00:29:42.680
<v Speaker 1>the split terms, including the fact obviously he's just got

603
00:29:42.720 --> 00:29:45.680
<v Speaker 1>his A plus game, but which doesn't mean perfect.

604
00:29:45.680 --> 00:29:48.799
<v Speaker 2>It's a human condition, right. But at the same time.

605
00:29:49.119 --> 00:29:53.400
<v Speaker 1>There's so much more opportunity for this GOP talent now

606
00:29:53.960 --> 00:29:57.400
<v Speaker 1>to emerge and to keep growing. I mean, you see

607
00:29:57.400 --> 00:29:59.000
<v Speaker 1>how much Marco Rubio has grown.

608
00:29:59.079 --> 00:30:00.519
<v Speaker 2>Jd Ants.

609
00:30:00.680 --> 00:30:04.000
<v Speaker 1>You've got so many who are going to be competing

610
00:30:04.039 --> 00:30:06.880
<v Speaker 1>for that twenty eight nomination, and across the country you've

611
00:30:06.920 --> 00:30:09.759
<v Speaker 1>got you've got a lot of great young GOP talents,

612
00:30:09.759 --> 00:30:11.400
<v Speaker 1>So very encouraging.

613
00:30:11.640 --> 00:30:13.480
<v Speaker 2>Hey, speaking of.

614
00:30:15.200 --> 00:30:18.480
<v Speaker 1>Colorado, so we've been talking a lot about Michael Bennett,

615
00:30:18.599 --> 00:30:21.640
<v Speaker 1>right because one of the things that is Colorado Republicans

616
00:30:21.720 --> 00:30:23.839
<v Speaker 1>so hopeful now is it looks like he'll be the

617
00:30:23.880 --> 00:30:27.920
<v Speaker 1>dem nominee, and he obviously is not qualified for this

618
00:30:28.039 --> 00:30:32.240
<v Speaker 1>governor's job. He's nobody's ever done less with more than

619
00:30:32.279 --> 00:30:34.799
<v Speaker 1>he has in the US Senate. So there's a real

620
00:30:34.839 --> 00:30:36.720
<v Speaker 1>opening there, and then he botches it right out of

621
00:30:36.759 --> 00:30:39.680
<v Speaker 1>the gate with this ultimate elitist power move that he's

622
00:30:39.720 --> 00:30:42.039
<v Speaker 1>going to keep his Senate job and then appoint his

623
00:30:42.160 --> 00:30:44.839
<v Speaker 1>own successor. Right even the Post had to hammer him

624
00:30:44.839 --> 00:30:47.680
<v Speaker 1>for that, which brings us to Meyorweb, one of my

625
00:30:47.720 --> 00:30:53.920
<v Speaker 1>favorite Democrats, then blasting the Post for blasting Bennett. So

626
00:30:54.160 --> 00:30:58.119
<v Speaker 1>it says, Ray, this is from Mayorweb. Bennett should resign

627
00:30:58.200 --> 00:31:00.599
<v Speaker 1>now and has run for governor. I write in response

628
00:31:00.640 --> 00:31:03.960
<v Speaker 1>to the Denver Post ridiculous editorial this week calling on

629
00:31:04.039 --> 00:31:06.839
<v Speaker 1>Senator Michael Bennett to resign his seat to run for governor.

630
00:31:07.200 --> 00:31:10.160
<v Speaker 1>As I recall, the Denver Post did not call on

631
00:31:10.200 --> 00:31:13.400
<v Speaker 1>Governor Jared Polis to resign from the House of Representatives

632
00:31:13.720 --> 00:31:16.519
<v Speaker 1>when he ran for governor at the beginning of President

633
00:31:16.519 --> 00:31:20.000
<v Speaker 1>Donald Trump's first term, nor did the Post call on

634
00:31:20.079 --> 00:31:23.759
<v Speaker 1>John Hickenlooper to resign his position as mayor when he

635
00:31:23.799 --> 00:31:27.839
<v Speaker 1>first ran for governor in twenty fourteen. The Post conveniently

636
00:31:28.359 --> 00:31:32.319
<v Speaker 1>has not called on Attorney General Phil Wiser to resign

637
00:31:32.359 --> 00:31:36.079
<v Speaker 1>from his office to run for governor. Either Democrats will

638
00:31:36.119 --> 00:31:38.000
<v Speaker 1>go to the polls in June twenty twenty six.

639
00:31:38.160 --> 00:31:40.039
<v Speaker 2>Let the people decide.

640
00:31:40.359 --> 00:31:42.720
<v Speaker 1>I think the mayor has some good points and some

641
00:31:42.759 --> 00:31:45.880
<v Speaker 1>weak points. I think the good point is when it

642
00:31:45.920 --> 00:31:50.200
<v Speaker 1>comes to Wiser. No, the attorney general's job. The nature

643
00:31:50.240 --> 00:31:53.359
<v Speaker 1>of that job is if you're running for governor, you

644
00:31:53.400 --> 00:31:58.960
<v Speaker 1>should resign that job because that position really needs somebody

645
00:31:59.000 --> 00:32:01.319
<v Speaker 1>in it full time the public safety of the people

646
00:32:01.359 --> 00:32:05.720
<v Speaker 1>at Colorado. So fair point, mayor Web. Now what that

647
00:32:05.880 --> 00:32:08.480
<v Speaker 1>means is that they both should resign their positions. It

648
00:32:08.480 --> 00:32:11.440
<v Speaker 1>doesn't mean Bennett should stay in his. It means both

649
00:32:11.480 --> 00:32:15.279
<v Speaker 1>Bennett and Wiser should resign their positions because Bennett's is

650
00:32:15.279 --> 00:32:20.440
<v Speaker 1>a Senate seat, and that US Senate seat is extraordinarily

651
00:32:20.480 --> 00:32:24.119
<v Speaker 1>important if it's used correctly. Thank goodness, Bennett has been

652
00:32:24.480 --> 00:32:26.000
<v Speaker 1>a ghost. Bennett's been a.

653
00:32:26.000 --> 00:32:30.200
<v Speaker 2>Zero in that seat, and then you've got, obviously Wiser.

654
00:32:30.319 --> 00:32:33.359
<v Speaker 1>So both of them should be resigning their seats. The

655
00:32:33.440 --> 00:32:37.839
<v Speaker 1>idea that somebody should resign a congressional seat much less

656
00:32:37.880 --> 00:32:40.920
<v Speaker 1>important in terms of overall impact than a US Senate

657
00:32:41.000 --> 00:32:45.279
<v Speaker 1>seat or the AG seat in terms of not calling

658
00:32:45.319 --> 00:32:47.680
<v Speaker 1>on Hick and Loper to resign as mayor. I think

659
00:32:47.680 --> 00:32:50.519
<v Speaker 1>there was just an acknowledgment that he wasn't doing much anyway.

660
00:32:51.000 --> 00:32:53.480
<v Speaker 2>You know, he'd go to some charity dinners in this

661
00:32:53.640 --> 00:32:54.000
<v Speaker 2>and that.

662
00:32:54.480 --> 00:32:56.960
<v Speaker 1>But what's really got the Post fired up, right, Ryan,

663
00:32:57.440 --> 00:32:59.440
<v Speaker 1>What's really got the Post fired up, and the reason

664
00:32:59.440 --> 00:33:03.440
<v Speaker 1>they hammered Bennett the other day, is that Bennett is

665
00:33:03.559 --> 00:33:06.519
<v Speaker 1>now in the postview. And I agree Bennett is now

666
00:33:06.640 --> 00:33:10.480
<v Speaker 1>using using this ultimate prize of an appointment to a

667
00:33:10.599 --> 00:33:15.640
<v Speaker 1>US Senate seat to keep all these other Democrats in

668
00:33:15.680 --> 00:33:18.359
<v Speaker 1>line to make them support him instead of Wiser, and

669
00:33:18.400 --> 00:33:21.000
<v Speaker 1>even run Wiser out of the race so Wiser can

670
00:33:21.039 --> 00:33:23.680
<v Speaker 1>gravel for the seat. That's what really has the Post

671
00:33:23.680 --> 00:33:27.480
<v Speaker 1>fired up, because remember Plogoyevitch went to jail overselling the

672
00:33:27.519 --> 00:33:30.440
<v Speaker 1>Senate seat. And I'm not saying that Bennett is committing

673
00:33:30.480 --> 00:33:33.920
<v Speaker 1>a crime when he holds that Senate seat up is

674
00:33:33.920 --> 00:33:37.759
<v Speaker 1>the ultimate prize. You know that everybody needs to chase,

675
00:33:37.799 --> 00:33:39.680
<v Speaker 1>so they need to support him and get out of

676
00:33:39.680 --> 00:33:40.599
<v Speaker 1>the race themselves.

677
00:33:40.880 --> 00:33:42.839
<v Speaker 2>I'm not saying there's anything criminal in that, but there

678
00:33:42.880 --> 00:33:43.279
<v Speaker 2>should be.

679
00:33:43.920 --> 00:33:46.319
<v Speaker 6>And this is why the point you just made, Damn

680
00:33:46.440 --> 00:33:49.960
<v Speaker 6>the Denver Post is absolutely right, and Wellington Webb his

681
00:33:50.119 --> 00:33:53.160
<v Speaker 6>argument falls apart. This is an Apple's and oranges argument.

682
00:33:53.319 --> 00:33:57.960
<v Speaker 6>Whether it's a House seat, the mayor's role, the attorney general,

683
00:33:58.160 --> 00:34:03.000
<v Speaker 6>none of those three. Unlike if Michael Bennett is victorious

684
00:34:03.039 --> 00:34:06.839
<v Speaker 6>in the governor's race, he gets to appoint his successor.

685
00:34:07.680 --> 00:34:10.440
<v Speaker 6>In the case of the House seat with Jared Polis,

686
00:34:10.599 --> 00:34:12.280
<v Speaker 6>you have to have a special election for the House

687
00:34:12.320 --> 00:34:14.280
<v Speaker 6>of Representatives, don't for the Senate.

688
00:34:14.599 --> 00:34:16.880
<v Speaker 3>That makes it a totally different argument, right, But.

689
00:34:17.119 --> 00:34:19.639
<v Speaker 1>I would say, Ryan, I do think that age job

690
00:34:19.760 --> 00:34:22.599
<v Speaker 1>is so important if it's done right, which which Phil

691
00:34:22.599 --> 00:34:24.320
<v Speaker 1>has not been doing. But if it's done right, it's

692
00:34:24.360 --> 00:34:27.239
<v Speaker 1>so important that, Yeah, if you're going to run for governor,

693
00:34:27.280 --> 00:34:29.679
<v Speaker 1>which is a full time job, right, you need to

694
00:34:29.719 --> 00:34:31.519
<v Speaker 1>resign that seat to go and run for governor. I

695
00:34:31.559 --> 00:34:33.639
<v Speaker 1>do think the Post is right about that, and you

696
00:34:33.679 --> 00:34:35.800
<v Speaker 1>and I obviously aligned on the idea of Wait a second,

697
00:34:35.800 --> 00:34:37.519
<v Speaker 1>only one of these gets to appoint.

698
00:34:37.159 --> 00:34:40.159
<v Speaker 3>The successor, right, right, But that's the level.

699
00:34:40.400 --> 00:34:42.639
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, And I think what's ticking the Post off, and

700
00:34:42.679 --> 00:34:44.960
<v Speaker 1>they should be ticked, is I think the Post wants

701
00:34:45.039 --> 00:34:49.320
<v Speaker 1>wiser and so they can just see it. Bennett by

702
00:34:49.360 --> 00:34:51.519
<v Speaker 1>doing what he's doing, as wrong as it is on

703
00:34:51.639 --> 00:34:53.320
<v Speaker 1>every level, and as much as I think it's going

704
00:34:53.360 --> 00:34:56.800
<v Speaker 1>to hurt him with voters, he is, he's probably able

705
00:34:56.840 --> 00:35:00.519
<v Speaker 1>to force Wiser out of the race, because you say,

706
00:35:00.639 --> 00:35:03.960
<v Speaker 1>I mean, does anybody get mel Cartins anymore? If so,

707
00:35:04.079 --> 00:35:06.000
<v Speaker 1>if somebody gets a mel Carton, can you tell me

708
00:35:06.039 --> 00:35:09.159
<v Speaker 1>if Phil Wiser's picture is on the side, because I

709
00:35:09.159 --> 00:35:13.199
<v Speaker 1>don't think he's been heard from in days now since Bennett.

710
00:35:12.800 --> 00:35:13.360
<v Speaker 3>Pulled this movie.

711
00:35:13.360 --> 00:35:15.199
<v Speaker 2>He's probably trying to figure out if he can get

712
00:35:15.199 --> 00:35:15.280
<v Speaker 2>that

713
00:35:15.360 --> 00:35:18.920
<v Speaker 1>Appointment from Bennett to US Senate set if Bennett becomes governor.
