Speaker 1: But I just want to jump on for a few
Speaker 1: minutes today because Donald Trump has now decided he's going
Speaker 1: to not just touch the current third rail of American politics.
Speaker 1: He's going to lick it and rub it down good.
Speaker 1: Donald Trump went all in today on data centers. And
Speaker 1: I have to show you his tweet because it's just
Speaker 1: a classic piece of Trumpism. I'll read it for you.
Speaker 2: The only reason communities throughout the USA should not want
Speaker 2: data centers is they want to end up being backward
Speaker 2: and poor. If they want to be successful and rich
Speaker 2: with far lower taxes and jobs all over the place,
Speaker 2: let data reign. The good news is there are plenty
Speaker 2: of other places that will want them. If we kill
Speaker 2: the golden goose, you'll lay of yourselves to blame. China
Speaker 2: could not be happy with this anti-data center movement. Actually,
Speaker 2: they can't believe it's happening, President DJT.
Speaker 1: Guys, I beg of you, Donald, and you, Donald Donalds,
Speaker 1: the both Donalds, Byron Donalds down in Florida has gone
Speaker 1: all in supporting data centers. in a state that is
Speaker 1: voting to ban them or put a moratorium on them in,
Speaker 1: I think it's 12 or 13 of the 67 counties
Speaker 1: so far, but Trump himself has now jumped in on
Speaker 1: this fight. I have almost never seen in my career
Speaker 1: a polling issue so unequivocal. This is like one of
Speaker 1: those trans-partisan issues. Oops, sorry, I used the word trans.
Speaker 1: This trans-partisan issues that everybody hates them. And why do
Speaker 1: they hate them? Well, they hate them because they're a proxy.
Speaker 1: Trump's saying, if you don't build a data center, your
Speaker 1: community will be backward and poor. Actually gives away the game.
Speaker 1: The big tech guys who want to build these data
Speaker 1: centers everywhere to train the AI that will take your job.
Speaker 1: And by the way, yes, the jobs they're taking now
Speaker 1: will be white collar jobs initially. But they're also using
Speaker 1: the AI training centers, the AI training data, to start
Speaker 1: training robots to take blue-collar jumps. And it's starting to
Speaker 1: trickle through. And Trump is remarkably completely on the wrong
Speaker 1: side of this issue with his own base. Right after
Speaker 1: he tweeted that, I'm going to show you this. I
Speaker 1: don't know how well you can see it. But hang on.
Speaker 1: All right, here we go. Oh, there it is. I
Speaker 1: don't know what way you can see it, but my God,
Speaker 1: these are people responding on Truth Social and he's absolutely
Speaker 1: getting his head caved in. I mean, he's absolutely getting
Speaker 1: a beat down from his own supporters. And when you
Speaker 1: look at the tone of those responses, my God, it's brutal. Again,
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, it's not that clear on the screen. But it's,
Speaker 1: you've lost your mind. You'll be known as the president
Speaker 1: slash Freemason who single-handedly destroyed the nation. No data centers.
Speaker 1: Love you, DJT. But if you're concerned about windmills destroying
Speaker 1: boards and the constant humming, you need to go to
Speaker 1: visit a local neighborhood data center in Florida where our
Speaker 1: aquifers are so fragile, water is so expensive. Data centers
Speaker 1: are the real threat. Am I MAGA?
Speaker 3: Guys.
Speaker 1: Horrendous messaging. This statement is insane. I'm already on water restrictions.
Speaker 1: You're an idiot. You'll be making money, I suspect. Meanwhile,
Speaker 1: our lives get shittier with no water and more noise.
Speaker 1: Trump has always had a feral sense of cunning, right?
Speaker 1: Like this low grade thing that he's always got in
Speaker 1: his gut. Like, where's the base? Where's the base? What's
Speaker 1: the base thinking? Am I with them? Are they with me?
Speaker 1: He now doesn't give a shit. He's just like, screw it.
Speaker 1: This is a proxy, once again, guys, for a big, big,
Speaker 1: big class warfare thing that's going on in this country.
Speaker 1: Why do the data center guys, why are they telling him?
Speaker 1: Because this is what they're telling him, by the way.
Speaker 1: If you don't build data centers, you'll be backward and poor.
Speaker 1: The data center guys understand that. They understand if you
Speaker 1: build the data centers, everybody's going to be backward and
Speaker 1: They are racing to extract the last bit of financial
Speaker 1: capital out of working class and middle class, white collar
Speaker 1: and blue collar workers. OpenAI and ChatGPT, well, OpenAI is ChatGPT,
Speaker 1: OpenAI and Meta and Google and Anthropic, they are all
Speaker 1: looking at this data center race, not just as a
Speaker 1: CapEx exercise. They're looking at the data center race as
Speaker 1: a way to shift about 25% of GDP, those white-collar
Speaker 1: and blue-collar jobs, from humans to them. So right now,
Speaker 1: let me pick a white-collar job for you. CPAs, tax preparers, right?
Speaker 1: It's already been shifting because of software in general, but
Speaker 1: in a few years, they want to look out there
Speaker 1: and say, okay, CPAs generate extra billion dollars a year
Speaker 1: of revenue for themselves. And that's contributed to GDP. They
Speaker 1: want to be able to say that the AI will
Speaker 1: prepare your taxes. It will do a better job. It
Speaker 1: will find every single maximal whatever. And you'll pay your
Speaker 1: $ 29 or $ 49 or as I paid a couple thousand dollars.
Speaker 1: And it will not go to Joe or Jim or
Speaker 1: Chris or Maria, your local tax preparer. It will go
Speaker 1: to Anthropic or OpenAI or Meta or Google. And iterate
Speaker 1: that across the whole economy. That's why the data center
Speaker 1: thing is affecting people. They recognize it. It's a proxy
Speaker 1: for the economic dislocation that AI is going to cause
Speaker 1: in this country. It is also a direct environmental proxy.
Speaker 1: Because you know where there's not an AI data center?
Speaker 1: Right in the middle of Atherton, California, where the richest
Speaker 1: men in the world live. You know where there's not
Speaker 1: an AI data center? In Mark Zuckerberg's neighborhood. You know,
Speaker 1: there will never be an AI data center in Sundar
Speaker 1: Pichai's neighborhood. You know, there will never, ever be an
Speaker 1: AI data center in Sam Altman's neighborhood. Because the AI
Speaker 1: data centers they're building in Florida and in Georgia and Alabama,
Speaker 1: Mississippi and Tennessee and Texas are so large you can
Speaker 1: see them from space. They are so damaging to the
Speaker 1: local environment. And I'm not talking about like the sort
Speaker 1: of ephemeral, like, oh, is it climate change? No.
Speaker 3: No.
Speaker 1: The turbine generators that run the power systems for these
Speaker 1: things scream all day and all night long. It is
Speaker 1: a sound you will never forget once you hear it.
Speaker 1: I want to play a quick clip of an ad
Speaker 1: we did in Florida for a super PAC helping David Jolly.
Speaker 1: Because Byron Donalds in Florida has dug in so hard
Speaker 1: on data centers. But I want you to listen to
Speaker 1: the noise. It's a real sound that we got.
Speaker 4: Water all the things that make our state so magical
Speaker 4: you thought you were getting this came to florida for
Speaker 4: the sun the weather the water all the things that
Speaker 4: make our state so magical you thought you were getting
Speaker 4: this but the man they call data center donalds wants
Speaker 4: a different sound and so do his billionaire mega.
Speaker 1: Donors it's this.
Speaker 4: Donald's and his friends want to build thousands of data
Speaker 4: centers right in your backyard. They run 24-7, a noise
Speaker 4: from hell. They make our already sky-high electrical bills even
Speaker 4: worse and drive down your home value. But data center
Speaker 4: Donald's owes big tech, and he'll do everything they say.
Speaker 1: Florida does not leave, California will.
Speaker 4: So when you hear Byron Donalds, get used to hearing
Speaker 4: this sound every day, every night, forever.
Speaker 1: All right, so that's just one example. And frankly, since
Speaker 1: Trump has now staked out this position, I want people
Speaker 1: to start asking those vulnerable Republicans in the 26 districts
Speaker 1: that we're going after and others, And those vulnerable statewide
Speaker 1: Senate races, where they are on data centers, because now
Speaker 1: Trump has put them in a trap. Now Trump has
Speaker 1: put them in a trap where if they say, I
Speaker 1: don't want data centers, then the next thing that's going
Speaker 1: to happen is Trump's going to notice. And people will say,
Speaker 1: you're not loyal to the president. This is a unforced
Speaker 1: error on the part of Donald Trump that frankly was inconceivable.
Speaker 1: Even in 2024, he would never have made this kind
Speaker 1: of error. He had a sensitivity in 24 to the
Speaker 1: efficacy of the message about the economy and inflation and
Speaker 1: gas prices and grocery prices that no matter how mendacious
Speaker 1: it was, no matter if he didn't have a solution
Speaker 1: to it, the fact that he would make it worse
Speaker 1: didn't matter. He had that gut sense and he has
Speaker 1: lost that gut sense. But now these Republicans are going
Speaker 1: to have to come out and either publicly say, I
Speaker 1: love Donald Trump and he's right on data centers, or
Speaker 1: they're going to have to say, No presence wrong in
Speaker 1: data centers. I'm not going to vote for them. I'm
Speaker 1: going to push against them. Please, Donald, keep talking. And
Speaker 1: you too, Byron Donalds, keep talking about data centers. I
Speaker 1: want you to talk about data centers all day, every day.
Speaker 1: I never want you to spend a moment. I want
Speaker 1: you to spend every waking minute talking about data centers
Speaker 1: from now on, because the fact that data centers are
Speaker 1: so popularized, and people just love them. They just love
Speaker 1: data centers. They think data centers are the greatest thing
Speaker 1: since prepared mustard. They think data centers are making their weight.
Speaker 1: They don't. And when I tell you every poll that
Speaker 1: we have examined this year, when I say that every
Speaker 1: poll we've looked at this year has shown data centers
Speaker 1: to be so fricking unpopular to be so, so politically
Speaker 1: poisonous guys. It's universal. There are no surveys, national surveys
Speaker 1: that I'm aware of this year that have said, Oh,
Speaker 1: data centers are super popular. I'm going to show you
Speaker 1: a couple quick slides on this because this is from
Speaker 1: the heat map poll. And I'm going to add this
Speaker 1: on stage. I'm going to go full screen. Again, I'm
Speaker 1: sorry if it's kind of hard to see. So in
Speaker 1: a year, we've gone from about 45% opposed data centers
Speaker 1: to just under 75% opposed data centers where they live, okay?
Speaker 1: For something to move that much in a year, it's
Speaker 1: not a psyop. It's not some liberal talking point as
Speaker 1: Trump is trying to put, Trump allies are trying to
Speaker 1: push out. It's not some Chinese PSYOP, blah, blah, blah.
Speaker 1: It is a political tectonic shift in the country. Here's
Speaker 1: another one for you. Data centers are underwater with Democrats
Speaker 1: by 75%, independents by 65%, 67%. Republicans are still underwater
Speaker 1: by about 45%. And rural voters, who are the ones
Speaker 1: taking the hit, who are the ones getting the data
Speaker 1: center shoved in their face are right where independents are
Speaker 1: and not far into where Democrats are. Y'all, when I
Speaker 1: tell you that this is a losing issue for Republicans
Speaker 1: and for MAGA, I want Donald Trump to keep talking
Speaker 1: about it. Tell me I'm wrong, Donald. Keep talking about it.
Speaker 1: My God, it is poisonous and it's going to stay poisonous.
Speaker 1: I've got a memo that came out a couple of
Speaker 1: weeks ago Where is that? Did we load that? Maybe
Speaker 1: we didn't load that yet. Hang on. A memo that
Speaker 1: came out in the Ohio Senate race a couple weeks ago, okay,
Speaker 1: from the NRSC. And the NRSC, I've just clipped a
Speaker 1: part of it for you here, talked about why, about
Speaker 1: two weeks ago, why John Husted is losing to Sherrod Brown. Now,
Speaker 1: there's a number of reasons. Sherrod's a good candidate. He's
Speaker 1: really born-again hard. But they say data centers are the
Speaker 1: anchor hanging around Husted's neck. This has become a sleeper
Speaker 1: issue of the entire election cycle. Now, the purpose of
Speaker 1: this memo from the NRSC was not to protect John Husted.
Speaker 1: The purpose was to raise money from the data center
Speaker 1: industry and from the AI industry. Just as Byron Donald's
Speaker 1: campaign is being floated by the AI industry, their biggest
Speaker 1: super PAC is all funded by AI money and big
Speaker 1: tech money. His campaign is flooded with data center money
Speaker 1: and AI money and big tech money, as is Busted's.
Speaker 1: And the NRC was essentially saying, we know how bad
Speaker 1: this issue is. We know how much it sucks. We
Speaker 1: know how angry you are. Give us more money, data
Speaker 1: center guys, so we can keep forcing it down the
Speaker 1: throats of the people of Ohio. It has turned so poisonous, folks,
Speaker 1: that in Florida, process this for a second, Even Ron
Speaker 1: DeSantis is like, oh, data centers, we've got to sort
Speaker 1: out data centers. But Donald's, again, all in on data centers.
Speaker 1: His lieutenant governor.
Speaker 3: Choice, and he's a Republican, by the way, he picked
Speaker 3: a guy for lieutenant governor who sponsored the data center
Speaker 3: bill that gave them the power to come in with
Speaker 3: NDAs and to secretly place these data centers in Florida
Speaker 3: with no liability.
Speaker 1: He's also pro-gun control, which, again, is a weird choice
Speaker 1: for Florida. And he's also a Miami Cuban, which, welcome
Speaker 1: to North Florida, which is Alabama, which is, you know,
Speaker 1: as one Republican said to me the other day, he goes, whoa,
Speaker 1: looks like Byron's got himself a DEI ticket now. Anyway,
Speaker 1: but I want Trump and Donalds and these other Republicans,
Speaker 1: in Texas, Greg Abbott is in trouble. Gina Hinojosa is
Speaker 1: on his heels. Greg Abbott in Texas is like, No,
Speaker 1: we're going to back off on the data centers. We're
Speaker 1: going to hold off on this for a minute. Really?
Speaker 1: James Tallarico is running against Ken Paxton, of course, and
Speaker 1: doing very well, as we all know. And Paxton is
Speaker 1: still all in on the data centers, hoping to get
Speaker 1: some tranche of big tech money rolling in at the
Speaker 1: last minute. Guys, this shit is amazing. I want Republicans
Speaker 1: to keep fighting for data centers. Please, guys, keep fighting
Speaker 1: for data centers. It is my dream that you will
Speaker 1: die on this hill because it is a hill you
Speaker 1: will die on politically. Now, there is a rising wave.
Speaker 1: You guys should all prepare yourselves to hear this. MAG
Speaker 1: is going to say, opposition to data centers is all
Speaker 1: because of the Chinese. They've got an influence campaign. Now,
Speaker 1: these are the people who've said, oh, no, Russian influence
Speaker 1: campaigns never existed to help Trump. But suddenly this Chinese
Speaker 1: data center campaign is the magical power that has hypnotized
Speaker 1: 300 million Americans to hate data centers. It ain't. By
Speaker 1: the way, China's going to do just fine in the
Speaker 1: AI war against us because they're moving at speed and
Speaker 1: scale for a bunch of models that are publicly deployable
Speaker 1: on lower power hardware. We are in a race with
Speaker 1: China on AI. But right now, it's not going to
Speaker 1: be contingent on whether we build out the data center
Speaker 1: capacity faster. They're innovating faster. Just is. The Kimmy model
Speaker 1: is very powerful. Anyway, that's a rabbit hole. We don't
Speaker 1: need to go down on this on this live. But guys,
Speaker 1: if you're in a district with one of these Republicans
Speaker 1: who is vulnerable. First off, let me know in the
Speaker 1: comments if you're in a district with a Republican who's
Speaker 1: cheerleading for data centers.
Speaker 3: OK.
Speaker 1: Oh, yeah. Somebody just mentioned Musk. That is another reason
Speaker 1: why Paxton is trying this. He's hoping Musk will swag
Speaker 1: a check for $ 100 million or $ 200 million, some kind
Speaker 1: of bullshit like that. And I don't know that's going
Speaker 1: to happen. In part, for a sort of technical reason,
Speaker 1: that the guy running Paxton's campaign is a notorious Republican
Speaker 1: Party grifter, okay? I mean, not like notorious, like a
Speaker 1: little bit notorious, like rape and pillage. He has things
Speaker 1: on his slides and his pitch deck. Like, I keep
Speaker 1: 67% of every dollar a campaign spends. It must be nice.
Speaker 1: But the people that right now are in this political
Speaker 1: wedge on the Republican side, you should ask them. If
Speaker 1: you're in their district, you should go to a town
Speaker 1: hall meeting if they'll do one or ask them on socials.
Speaker 1: Do you agree with the president on data centers? Remember,
Speaker 1: all things in Trump's world are mediated through one of
Speaker 1: two modalities, Fox News or social media. The response he's
Speaker 1: gotten so far on true social, it's going to rattle him.
Speaker 1: It's going to be even worse if Republicans start getting
Speaker 1: asked about this. And, oh, yeah, I interviewed Aaron Brockovich
Speaker 1: a couple weeks ago on the podcast about data centers.
Speaker 1: It was a phenomenal conversation. He has a great site
Speaker 1: where you can report data centers in your area and
Speaker 1: also find out like who's accountable. This political stink bomb,
Speaker 1: this thing is radioactive waste and the GOP has not
Speaker 1: figured it out. So caught. And I love it so much.
Speaker 1: They're so caught in this and yes, is, is Mark
Speaker 1: Zuckerberg and, and, Are Mark Zuckerberg and Mark Andreessen and
Speaker 1: Peter Thiel and all the various Silicon Valley players, big
Speaker 1: tech players, AI players, are they spending a lot of
Speaker 1: CapEx on AI? Yes, they are. Do they want to
Speaker 1: build them everywhere? Yes, they do. Do they care about
Speaker 1: your community? Abso-fricking-lutely not. Not a bit, not one iota
Speaker 1: do they care. That is why all these communities are
Speaker 1: forced to sign MBAs. And there's no economic boom coming
Speaker 1: from these things. Georgia spent $ 475 million last year incentivizing
Speaker 1: AI data centers to come to Georgia. They have collected
Speaker 1: $ 40 million of tax revenue. I'm sure that's going to
Speaker 1: iterate out pretty much the same way everywhere else. If
Speaker 1: you thought it was a rip off of your taxpayer
Speaker 1: dollars back in the day to give billionaires money to
Speaker 1: build a stadium, you were right. You were correct. If
Speaker 1: you think it's a bigger ripoff of your taxpayer dollars
Speaker 1: to subsidize Elon Musk and Sam Altman and Mark Zuckerberg
Speaker 1: building data centers in your neighborhood or on your farm, oh,
Speaker 1: you are even more right. And guys, counties in North Florida,
Speaker 1: where I live, this is a very, very red state,
Speaker 1: red part of the state. state, excuse me. This is
Speaker 1: Southern Alabama. If you take a left out of my street,
Speaker 1: you're in Georgia in about two minutes. No, maybe six minutes.
Speaker 1: But Georgia, very quickly out of my street, okay? Farmers
Speaker 1: in Florida And ranchers in central Florida, which is, Florida
Speaker 1: is the number eight state for cattle ranching in the country.
Speaker 1: You bet you didn't know that. We've been doing cowboys
Speaker 1: here since way before there were cowboys in the West.
Speaker 1: Florida farmers and cattlemen are the number one targets for
Speaker 1: these land acquisition guys and these data center acquisition guys.
Speaker 1: And they want to come in and burn down, I
Speaker 1: don't know, 2,000, 3,000, 5,000 acres of farmland. and build
Speaker 1: data centers on them. They want to build what they
Speaker 1: call hyperscalers, the biggest of big data centers. The other
Speaker 1: thing about Florida that my science-y wife has pointed out
Speaker 1: to me is our aquifer is so stressed out in Florida.
Speaker 1: We've got way too many people who've moved here. Data
Speaker 1: centers are going to be pumping out the Florida aquifer,
Speaker 1: which is going to mean sinkholes. has had sinkhole problems
Speaker 1: for years as people move here and they drain the
Speaker 1: aquifers and then the limestone collapses, right? I speak from
Speaker 1: experience on this because in the 80s, our home in Carolina, Florida,
Speaker 1: got sucked down by a sinkhole. The data centers are
Speaker 1: going to turn that into a daily occurrence because they
Speaker 1: suck down so much water. The ones that want to
Speaker 1: build near rivers, say goodbye to your fresh seafood and
Speaker 1: your oysters in Florida. They get to build on either
Speaker 1: the Flint river, uh, on the here in West Florida,
Speaker 1: the St. John's over in, in Jacksonville area. They want
Speaker 1: to build these things where they can get cheap water
Speaker 1: and cheap power and cheap political figures who will be
Speaker 1: bought off for nothing. So that's why it's poisonous everywhere.
Speaker 1: This is happening everywhere. The most conservative counties in Florida,
Speaker 1: some of the most conservative, Escambia, Wakulla, Martin, um, These
Speaker 1: counties have said no. They put moratoriums on all over
Speaker 1: the place. There are moratoriums popping up in Texas for
Speaker 1: data centers all over the place. They want you to
Speaker 1: subsidize their AI transfer of your wealth, and people get it.
Speaker 1: And politically, they understand how freaking poisonous this is. So
Speaker 1: Trump being all in on this, Trump being all obsessed
Speaker 1: about this, it is absolutely... Sorry, I just had to
Speaker 1: deal with some business there. It is absolutely an issue
Speaker 1: I want Republicans to be dug in on. I want
Speaker 1: them to support the president 100% on this. Let me
Speaker 1: play J.D. Vance's clip here, and then I'm going to
Speaker 1: roll up.
Speaker 5: Take advantage of some of the federal deregulatory efforts that
Speaker 5: we've undertaken. If you build a data center, you should
Speaker 5: be putting power back into the grid, not taking it out.
Speaker 5: And if that is happening, I don't think the data
Speaker 5: centers are that controversial.
Speaker 1: Oh, au contraire, couch boy. The data centers are not
Speaker 1: going to be putting power back into the grid. This
Speaker 1: is what we call in politics a big fat fucking lie. J.D.
Speaker 1: does not recognize that these data centers are politically poisoned
Speaker 1: because he's got to follow Trump because he wants to
Speaker 1: run for president. All the BS, right? The trap he's
Speaker 1: in just then is trying to wedge a little tiny, like, oh,
Speaker 1: they're going to put power back. No, they're not, JD.
Speaker 1: They're not. Again, this is a proxy for class and
Speaker 1: economic dislocation that has entered into the brains of Americans
Speaker 1: in a way that is going to be really hard
Speaker 1: to shift. There's no amount of money you can spend
Speaker 1: in the next 65 days. It's going to convince a
Speaker 1: guy in North Florida or South Georgia or or Tennessee,
Speaker 1: that a data center on his farm is going to
Speaker 1: be a net positive for the community. That a neighborhood
Speaker 1: listening to the data center screaming all night is going
Speaker 1: to be a net positive for their community. That a
Speaker 1: data center that pollutes the water table at scale is
Speaker 1: going to be a great net positive for their community.
Speaker 1: There's not enough money in the universe to change the
Speaker 1: minds of Americans when they're at, they're at basically five
Speaker 1: to one against data centers. He is obviously not listening
Speaker 1: to come to the pollster. Trump is not listening to
Speaker 1: his pollsters clearly because this issue is coming up everywhere
Speaker 1: and it's coming up hard. Um, we're going to be
Speaker 1: doing some ads at our targeted races against these Republicans
Speaker 1: on the data center issue, because guys, I've never seen anything, um,
Speaker 1: I've never seen anything move this. Final buzzer, you made
Speaker 1: a great point just now. The technology in the data centers,
Speaker 1: I want you to remember that the investment in data centers,
Speaker 1: these people are like locusts. They're going to build these things.
Speaker 1: They're going to use them for a couple of years.
Speaker 1: And you know what they're going to do after that?
Speaker 1: They're going to dump them. And you're going to be
Speaker 1: left with these abandoned shells in the middle of what
Speaker 1: were farms and neighborhoods and cities and communities. and suburbs,
Speaker 1: and they're going to say, well, you clean up the mess.
Speaker 1: That's what they always do, guys. They want the classic
Speaker 1: post-free market economic model of socialize the risk and privatize
Speaker 1: the benefit. If they were really so intent on selling
Speaker 1: these great things that are so great for the community,
Speaker 1: you know what they'd be doing? They'd be saying, okay, well,
Speaker 1: City of such and such, we're going to build a
Speaker 1: data center here and it's going to contribute X fraction
Speaker 1: of billion, X billion dollars to our revenue every year.
Speaker 1: And you're going to get 25% of it for your schools.
Speaker 1: Are they doing that? No, they are not. They're bad
Speaker 1: politics and they're a lot of expensive PR people. But
Speaker 1: there's a rule in politics and in PR. It's called
Speaker 1: the dog food rule. If you're a company that makes
Speaker 1: crappy dog food, it doesn't matter how good the advertising is.
Speaker 1: The humans may buy the dog food, but the dogs
Speaker 1: won't eat it if it tastes like crap. And data
Speaker 1: centers to the American people are bad dog food. They're poisonous.
Speaker 1: They're politically stupid. And so Donald Trump and Byron Donalds
Speaker 1: and Ken Paxton and the rest of you morons, I
Speaker 1: want you to keep fighting for data centers. I beg
Speaker 1: of you do it. I beg of you to do it.
Speaker 1: It is, it is, It is such an amazing issue
Speaker 1: for you. Please just keep doing it because all those
Speaker 1: voters who wake up in the morning and go, man,
Speaker 1: how can I make Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg retro
Speaker 1: while training the AI that's going to take my job?
Speaker 1: They can't. But please, guys, if you're a Republican, please,
Speaker 1: I beg of you, keep doing it. It is a wonder.
Speaker 1: It is a miracle. It is something amazing. that you
Speaker 1: should stake your entire political future on. Because now that
Speaker 1: Donald Trump has gone all in on it, you have.
