Speaker 1: Sixty six here if about their CD talks station Our
Speaker 1: Political Power with George brenhaman mister politics himself. He is
Speaker 1: in the know on all matters political and we can
Speaker 1: talk energy policy and we can talk border security.
Speaker 2: George, good to have you in the studio. Thanks, Brian,
Speaker 2: been looking forward to it. Yeah, I have too.
Speaker 1: I enjoy our conversations and always appreciate your common sense
Speaker 1: and your wisdom on these matters.
Speaker 2: What's your inclination?
Speaker 1: We were talking a little bit just the off mic
Speaker 1: there before we came on about some of the problems
Speaker 1: that Harris is having because she's sending people out into
Speaker 1: the world or they are going out into the world
Speaker 1: in an effort to speak on her behalf and not
Speaker 1: really making a good point on her behalf. You know,
Speaker 1: you had the Barack Obama issue the other day talking
Speaker 1: down to black men, which I thought was rather offensive.
Speaker 1: And you know, I don't know that I'm allowed to
Speaker 1: express offense on behalf of black men, but if I
Speaker 1: were a black man, I, like so many that came
Speaker 1: out after his comments were offended and don't don't lecture
Speaker 1: rightly so rightly so. And then you had Bill Clinton
Speaker 1: on the border situation, basically saying, hey, well, had everybody
Speaker 1: been vetted, then you know this, Uh, these murders wouldn't happen.
Speaker 3: And it's it's almost like they're trained to sabotage her
Speaker 3: at this point.
Speaker 1: Well, yeah, definite on that route, because you know, Bill Clinton,
Speaker 1: I don't know where he is cognitively speaking. I know
Speaker 1: he's gauged a lot, but he still seems like he's there.
Speaker 1: But he started using this murder as an illustration Lake
Speaker 1: and Riley about you know, had that guy been properly vetted,
Speaker 1: he wouldn't have gotten to the United States, And he
Speaker 1: was sort of using that as an argument that you know,
Speaker 1: Trump sabotaged the immigration bill that it was bipartisan, and
Speaker 1: I got all kinds of problems with claiming that bill
Speaker 1: is bipartisan since six Democrat senators voted against it. But
Speaker 1: more fundamentally, that bill wasn't even introduced until a year
Speaker 1: or more after that murderer got into the country. So
Speaker 1: on whose watch was the thingailure to vet?
Speaker 2: Well?
Speaker 3: And it was entirely their strategy. Did not vet these people.
Speaker 3: The Democrats just wanted to open the border out. You
Speaker 3: can take your reasons why they want you know, low
Speaker 3: cost labor or do they want more voters. Clearly what
Speaker 3: we're seeing now in Virginia where they're trying to force
Speaker 3: them to leave illegals on the voter roles in Virginia
Speaker 3: that it's got to be part of their strategy. Department
Speaker 3: of Justice suit them. I don't understand illegal for someone
Speaker 3: to vote in election if they're not a citizen. Yet
Speaker 3: our Department of Justice is going after the state for
Speaker 3: trying to do just that, get non citizens who have
Speaker 3: falsified their citizenship status right off the ballot or off
Speaker 3: the vote rather well. And so the whole strategy seems
Speaker 3: to be falling apart for him. So you got, like
Speaker 3: you say, Barack Obama, mister Hussein himself goes to an
Speaker 3: audience of young black men and basically chastise them for
Speaker 3: not supporting, you know, a black woman, and it's like
Speaker 3: that's her number one qualification. Now, I agree, she was
Speaker 3: a DEI hire, she was a black female, which was
Speaker 3: the definition of what Biden wanted for a VP. But
Speaker 3: to then chastise people and say, listen, you need to
Speaker 3: vote for her because your skin looks like her skin,
Speaker 3: and it just that's an enormously horrible reason to vote
Speaker 3: for someone, and I think it came off really bad.
Speaker 3: It's arrogant, and basically they're now looking a gett him
Speaker 3: and said, you did nothing to help us. Why would
Speaker 3: we support someone who's following your policies? And then just
Speaker 3: what two days later, you got Bill Clinton standing in
Speaker 3: front of an audience trying to get you know, the
Speaker 3: the non urban vote because you wouldn't put Brock there,
Speaker 3: and Bill Clinton in front of the black audience. So
Speaker 3: he come, he said, wasn't Bill Clinton the first black president?
Speaker 3: Remember those days? I've been trying to forget Bill Clinton
Speaker 3: for years. He was sort of my introduction to how
Speaker 3: I watched debate. So I was I was working for
Speaker 3: General Electric at the time out in the deserts of Palmdale,
Speaker 3: and it was the debates with Clinton, Bush and Ross Pureau.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, And I remember watching television and I had
Speaker 3: to turn the sound off because I could tell immediately
Speaker 3: by the tone of his voice Bill Clinton was lying
Speaker 3: to every question. So then I turned the sound off
Speaker 3: and I just watched, and his mannerisms, you could tell
Speaker 3: he was making everything up on the fly. None of
Speaker 3: it was true. And now when I can't watch debates
Speaker 3: now for that very reason. You could just tell, like
Speaker 3: Kamala without the bluetooth earings, I don't think she could
Speaker 3: come up with an answer.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's just craziness that was.
Speaker 1: Revealed in that when when she was talking to someone,
Speaker 1: I got a live what was it.
Speaker 2: It's a live interview.
Speaker 1: Yeah, speaking to the person who's talking to her in
Speaker 1: her ear through the earbud. It was rather revealing in
Speaker 1: and of itself.
Speaker 3: So, but now you had Bill Clinton basically reinforcing Trump's
Speaker 3: border policy by saying, you got to vet the these people.
Speaker 3: You can't let twenty million people across the border. And
Speaker 3: then you've got jd. Vance, who that guy is unbelievable.
Speaker 3: His ability to come with a comeback quick immediately.
Speaker 1: Yes, he has a very very very sharp mind when
Speaker 1: it comes to responding to questions on the fly.
Speaker 3: Yeah, you shouldn't be worried about Venezuelan gangs. It only
Speaker 3: took over a few hotel complexes. You hear yourself, You
Speaker 3: hear what you just asked me. It's like, what one
Speaker 3: of the worst criminal gangs in Venezuela has taken over
Speaker 3: real estate in the United States of America, threatening the
Speaker 3: lives of the people who live there, nothing to see her.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and I've been to Aurora.
Speaker 3: I would never have guessed that that was a place
Speaker 3: that had on a major population. But then again, we
Speaker 3: would expect Springfield to have a major immigrant population either.
Speaker 3: The whole what's going on now with the election just
Speaker 3: seems to be such confusion. You've got CBS rearranging words
Speaker 3: to try and make her look better. You've got her
Speaker 3: surrogate's coming out and supporting Trump essentially with what they're saying.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it is just so upside down right now.
Speaker 1: I don't see and Biden too, by the way, is
Speaker 1: also not helping Kamala Harrison.
Speaker 2: Anyway, this is great. I've been talking to you, great stuff.
Speaker 1: I think that we know where that comes from. Me
Speaker 1: and and Jill are just frankly pissed off of what
Speaker 1: happened to him, So they're not willing to really go
Speaker 1: real all in for for Kamala Harris. So I at
Speaker 1: least understand that, you know, perhaps chip on the shoulder thing,
Speaker 1: but you know that this is Baraco whis would be
Speaker 1: Barack Obama's what third fourth term, right, and here he
Speaker 1: is out there making these obnoxious statements to black men
Speaker 1: because of course they're losing black male votes. And I think,
Speaker 1: you know, honestly, George, part of that, I think is
Speaker 1: this woke agenda regarding the LGBTQ thing and this whole
Speaker 1: idea of men being able to play against women in sports.
Speaker 1: The black men, at least the ones I've met throughout
Speaker 1: my life, is you know, more traditional male type of
Speaker 1: traditional male figures in other words, you know, some machismo
Speaker 1: and tough and strong, and you know, I can handle it.
Speaker 1: I can defend myself and you know, I'm looking out
Speaker 1: for my women or whatever. But not I don't know
Speaker 1: that many that are out marching in the street ands
Speaker 1: LGBTQ plus parades. It's interesting. I mean, that community seems
Speaker 1: to be.
Speaker 3: Fairly religious, they value their family, but yet somehow the
Speaker 3: Democrats got this stronghold on them. And I was just
Speaker 3: listening on the way into reports that you know, Trump's
Speaker 3: making enormous inrows in that community.
Speaker 1: Exactly, and I think it's it's the policies. And of
Speaker 1: course four years wasn't that long ago, George, and everybody remembers,
Speaker 1: you know what it was like, and now we know
Speaker 1: what it is like post COVID, and under the Biden
Speaker 1: Harris administration, things just are not going really well, most
Speaker 1: notably for folks you know, who aren't the elite, college
Speaker 1: educated or making all kinds of money. Yeah, it's a
Speaker 1: real diconomy to see that it's this close of a race.
Speaker 1: When you know, gasoline's fifty percent higher, eggs or thirty
Speaker 1: percent higher.
Speaker 3: You can't afford to go to the grocery store anymore, right,
Speaker 3: it certainly you can't afford to shop at the edges,
Speaker 3: you know, the fresh stuff right the boxes in the
Speaker 3: middle with the sugar and the carbs and all that
Speaker 3: fun stuff which we were talking about. Yeah, our diet,
Speaker 3: but that stuff's cheaper, but none of it has gone
Speaker 3: down in price, and it seems to be going up.
Speaker 3: There's some mickey mouse going on with gas prices now,
Speaker 3: I mean they were down below three bucks, then they
Speaker 3: jump right back up to three forty.
Speaker 2: Again.
Speaker 3: It's just nonsense. How do you vote for four more
Speaker 3: years of that? Well, the answer it's baked into the
Speaker 3: equation because she's not Trump, right, there's that much anger
Speaker 3: and resentment or brainwashing, if I may be so bold,
Speaker 3: of the general population who largely does not pay attention
Speaker 3: to the minutia. But you know, they made such a
Speaker 3: demon out of this man that you can't even say
Speaker 3: his name out loud in certain circles without getting into
Speaker 3: a fistfight almost. And it's normally people you would say
Speaker 3: are intelligent. They normally I cannotstand him. So what we've been
Speaker 3: doing with Restore Liberty dot Us. A couple of the
Speaker 3: tricks we're doing is we created our own slate cards.
Speaker 3: The slate cards don't use the word Republican anywhere, but
Speaker 3: obviously everybody on the list as a Republican. But then
Speaker 3: on the backside of it, we've put messages, handwritten messages.
Speaker 3: I joked that we encrypted it so that the gen
Speaker 3: Z can't read it.
Speaker 2: But hilarious.
Speaker 3: So the three messages we chose were taxes. They're coming
Speaker 3: after your four to one k's, they're coming after your savings.
Speaker 3: You know, they're going to be taxing taxes. I mean,
Speaker 3: it's just crazy what they're trying to do. The second
Speaker 3: message is inflation. You can't go to the grocery store
Speaker 3: and not remember that, hey, hey, you know, prior to COVID,
Speaker 3: this stuff was a lot cheaper a lot. And then
Speaker 3: the third message is public safety, which here in Hamilton
Speaker 3: County is an enormous deal. With Melissa Powers and Jim Neil,
Speaker 3: they lose. I mean we're Detroit, where Chicago. We're gonna
Speaker 3: bring the flag exactly. So, I mean what we're trying
Speaker 3: to do is nowhere. I mean Trump's name on it,
Speaker 3: but that's about it. There's no mention to Trump. And
Speaker 3: when we talk to people now, my normal comeback is
Speaker 3: you're not voting for Trump, you're voting to give Jdvans
Speaker 3: four years of training because that boy is I say, boy,
Speaker 3: he's young, he is intelligent, he's quick, he connects and
Speaker 3: if you've watched his background on you read reading the
Speaker 3: book or watching the movie.
Speaker 2: The guy came from nothing. Yeah, literally nothing.
Speaker 3: It's it's an American dreams story that we have to
Speaker 3: keep alive. And I think he knows how, he understands it,
Speaker 3: he knows how to get the people. So you're not
Speaker 3: voting for Trump, you're voting for JD. And that boy
Speaker 3: is gonna pick up after four years and run.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: And you're also voting presumably for a very very good cabinet.
Speaker 1: I think Trump's cabinet makeup is going to be outstanding.
Speaker 1: We can talk a little bit about that. Let's take
Speaker 1: a break right now. Restore Liberty dot Us is where
Speaker 1: you find Georgia and the crew. It's a good place
Speaker 1: to stop off. Put it on your Bookmart list. We'll
Speaker 1: be right back after I mentioned plum Type Plumbing my
Speaker 1: favorite plumbers. They do plumbing right. It is plumbing done right,
Speaker 1: and they live by that motto A plus the better
Speaker 1: business viar.
Speaker 2: I always like to point that out.
Speaker 1: Twenty four hour day is seven day week emergency service,
Speaker 1: so easy to schedule an appointment with plumb Type. I
Speaker 1: go into the website where you can learn all about
Speaker 1: all the different services they offer, and it is a
Speaker 1: wide range of services, but easy to schedule appointment. I
Speaker 1: had what I It wasn't an emergency, but when you
Speaker 1: walk out in your front yard and your backflow valve
Speaker 1: is spewing water all over the place, you got a
Speaker 1: bit of a plumbing problem on your hands. So I
Speaker 1: just made the appointment, just shut the water off to
Speaker 1: the irrigation system, made the appointment online. They called me
Speaker 1: back five minutes later. They wanted to know if it
Speaker 1: was an emergency, so over to my place. The next
Speaker 1: couple of days they fixed it in no time. Price
Speaker 1: was absolutely right and as always, the very exceptional customer
Speaker 1: service impressed me. Just very friendly to you and they're
Speaker 1: good about communicating, letting you know when they're going to
Speaker 1: be there. So for all plumbing issues for residents from
Speaker 1: northern Kentucky all the way up to Daton, everywhere in between.
Speaker 1: Kind of my friends at plumb Tight Plumbing done right online,
Speaker 1: plumb Tight t te plumptight dot com. Five one three
Speaker 1: seven two seven eighty four eighty three five one three
Speaker 1: seven two seven tight.
Speaker 2: This is fifty five krc an iHeartRadio station.
Speaker 3: If you missed our twenty twenty four, if you've our
Speaker 3: KRCD talk station and restore libity dot us, or you
Speaker 3: find George Brenman and crew, Georgie and Citio.
Speaker 1: We're talking politics and uh we got a couple of
Speaker 1: minutes to talk about potential cabinet and some of the
Speaker 1: names I've heard would be outstanding in a Trump cabinet.
Speaker 1: And you know, the cabinet is really really largely responsible.
Speaker 1: It's great to have a president and you think he's
Speaker 1: making the decisions. We know from the Biden administration that
Speaker 1: is not the case. Somebody else's you know, working the
Speaker 1: puppet strings and telling the puppet what to do. So
Speaker 1: obviously Kamala Harris has her earbud is being fed information
Speaker 1: and telling her what to say. She reads the matteleprompter
Speaker 1: written down words by somebody else for her to read
Speaker 1: out loud. So maybe it's a figurehead position. Maybe we're
Speaker 1: just that point of recognition, but responsible for port foreign
Speaker 1: policy the president is. But also who the president appoints
Speaker 1: for the cabinet and some of the names and then
Speaker 1: swirl around like, for example, I think Vivi Gramma Swimming
Speaker 1: is brilliant and wouldn't he be great in a cabinet
Speaker 1: position as well? Elon Musk not I don't enough Musk
Speaker 1: is willing to put his you know, money making ventures
Speaker 1: aside and actually beyond the cabinet. I sounded like he
Speaker 1: was maybe in favor of it, but what a brilliant
Speaker 1: guy he is, and wouldn't that be a benefit to say?
Speaker 3: Okay, I think the prospect of having Rfk Junior looking
Speaker 3: at the health industry, Viveke looking at shutting down whole
Speaker 3: sections of the government. I would take Viveke and put
Speaker 3: him in charge of the DOE Department of Education, and
Speaker 3: your job is to shut it down. And when you're
Speaker 3: done with that, we're gonna put you over on AHHS.
Speaker 3: And your job is to shut down a large portion
Speaker 3: of that. I think that's his passion. I mean, there's
Speaker 3: been a lot of talk about as if a Bak
Speaker 3: going to go for Senate it as you know, for governor.
Speaker 3: But if you hear him talk, his passion is shutting
Speaker 3: down the administrative state. And I would love to see
Speaker 3: him get like a year of experience doing that in
Speaker 3: DC and then.
Speaker 2: Come and be our governor.
Speaker 3: I mean, that's a selfish reason, but boy, wouldn't that
Speaker 3: be something.
Speaker 2: It sure would.
Speaker 3: But then you talk about Elon Musk. Here's a guy
Speaker 3: that got upsets because freedom of speech was being stamped
Speaker 3: down in the country and bought Twitter, proceeded to fire
Speaker 3: eighty percent of them. It's now bigger and better than
Speaker 3: ever with only twenty percent of the employees. And when
Speaker 3: after you know, this first assassination attempt on Trump, he
Speaker 3: looked at that and said, Okay, this is out of control.
Speaker 3: I'm going to back Trump. And it's been just like
Speaker 3: a rollercoaster for the sky after that. Did you see
Speaker 3: his appearance at Butler. When he was on stage, just
Speaker 3: jumping up and down. You can tell the guy's never
Speaker 3: been in front of a political crowd before, and he
Speaker 3: just speaks off the cuff. No teleprompter. I don't think
Speaker 3: he could use one anyway. But he's the Da Vinci
Speaker 3: of our times. This guy is brilliant. And let me
Speaker 3: get a little bit nerdy with you. So I've been
Speaker 3: a controls engineer forever. If you look at a rocket,
Speaker 3: know what in their right mind would land it?
Speaker 2: Steading, standing up?
Speaker 3: I mean, if you think about it, if you're gonna
Speaker 3: hold a broom, you hold it by the top and
Speaker 3: let it hang down, which is what a parachute does.
Speaker 3: You don't balance it upside down on your finger and
Speaker 3: land it that way. He's like, well, wait a minute,
Speaker 3: it's more efficient than we can move it around afterwards.
Speaker 3: It's easy to move better. Yet we're gonna land it
Speaker 3: right back where it started so that we could refuel
Speaker 3: it and an hour later take off again. He just
Speaker 3: looked at that problem and said, I can solve that problem.
Speaker 3: I'm gonna do it this way. If I can get
Speaker 3: this rocket to be reusable ten times a week, the
Speaker 3: price goes down by a factor of ten.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and he just does it.
Speaker 3: Can you imagine how much waste he would find in Washington, DC?
Speaker 1: Exclamation point on the topic by George Browneman. We're gonna
Speaker 1: pausibly be back with more conversation. It's six twenty five
Speaker 1: right now, I fifty five k see de talk station.
Speaker 1: I went from plumbing earlier. Now I get to go
Speaker 1: to electric because Cullen Electric are great electricians. I've done
Speaker 1: multiple projects at my house. Cullen c U l E
Speaker 1: and Colin Electriccincinnati dot com where you find the website
Speaker 1: and all the information about the teams that around locally
Speaker 1: owned and operated. Andrew Cullen has assembled a fantastic group
Speaker 1: of licensed electricians since nineteen ninety nine and a plus
Speaker 1: with a better business bureau because they do great work
Speaker 1: and they do it at a great price. Little projects,
Speaker 1: big projects. The whole nine yards are well covered with
Speaker 1: color and electric and ten year wiring warranty on everything.
Speaker 1: It's like, you know, full warranty on what they do
Speaker 1: for you. You have no worry something happens and it didn't.
Speaker 1: Not even going to say that, because it's never gonna happen.
Speaker 1: They're gonna be electric project right. They'll fix it right,
Speaker 1: and you'll never have to rely on the ten year war,
Speaker 1: although you get one anyway call on Electric Cincinnati dot
Speaker 1: com fight. I'm online right there, Tom Brian said, how
Speaker 1: can you give them a call for your appointment? Five

Speaker 5: k r S the talk.
Speaker 2: Station six thirty at fifty five krc E Talks Station.
Speaker 1: The story Liberty dot Us George Brenneman in studio talking politics,
Speaker 1: and I wanted to gravitate over. I was listening to
Speaker 1: at least snippets of Donald Trump speaking in front of
Speaker 1: that Economic Forum the other day and specifically gravitating towards tariffs.
Speaker 1: Now they on the Economic Forum, at least the people
Speaker 1: moderating it and others. Tariffs are terrible. They're terrible. They're terrible.
Speaker 1: It's tit for tat. You put a tariff on some
Speaker 1: product from some country, They're just gonna terriff for whatever
Speaker 1: you try to sell them. So it's gonna be bad
Speaker 1: for American businesses. Forty million American jobs depend upon exports,
Speaker 1: and they're all gonna dry. If that was the argument,
Speaker 1: I understand this arguments. Donald Trump's like, Nope, I believe
Speaker 1: in tariff's. I think tariffs is the beautiful word in
Speaker 1: the English language. The word tariff needs a marketing firm.
Speaker 1: He's there, you go, but I and he then gravitated
Speaker 1: toward automobile manufacturing in Mexico. And he said, you know,
Speaker 1: the Detroit, Detroit's dead, and they keep talking about Detroit,
Speaker 1: you know, growing again and rebuilding itself. He said, it's
Speaker 1: never going to happen. The auto industry, you know, abandoned
Speaker 1: Detroit and moved its plants down to Mexico. And he said,
Speaker 1: I'll tell you what, if something's made in Mexico and
Speaker 1: they try to ship it up here, I'll tax it
Speaker 1: at one hundred two three hundred percent. I think even
Speaker 1: said two thousand percent.
Speaker 2: Whatever. He was just in a role right, Well, and
Speaker 2: you got to take his you know, oh blov eating.
Speaker 3: Well, you know, yeah, yeah, yeah, absolutely, And but but.
Speaker 2: He's got a point.
Speaker 3: So how much of what's going on in Mexico right
Speaker 3: now is just China is using it as a staging
Speaker 3: area so they don't ship fentanyl to Mexico. They ship
Speaker 3: all of the precursors they make the fentanyl, ship it
Speaker 3: to the United States. Well, they figured, okay, it works
Speaker 3: for the drug trade, Let's do it with automobiles. Let's
Speaker 3: build these enormous plants in Mexico so that we can
Speaker 3: get around the fact that there's a terrif on Chinese plants,
Speaker 3: but they're still Chinese plants, but they're in Mexico.
Speaker 2: The profit still goes to.
Speaker 3: The Chinese Communist perhaps absolutely, and they still get the
Speaker 3: cheap labor down in Mexico. Ah See, there in lies
Speaker 3: the challenge because I see that, you know, I saw
Speaker 3: on the Wall Street Journal Ram Stilantis is planning on
Speaker 3: expanding its factory complex in northern Mexico to build Ram
Speaker 3: fifteen hundred pickups. And does that make any sense? They
Speaker 3: don't sell any of those in Mexico or no, they
Speaker 3: come back here. Yep, every one of them.
Speaker 1: So this is a slap in the face to the
Speaker 1: Detroit autoworker who just came off a wildly successful contract
Speaker 1: negotiation getting them a whole kinds of big salary increases.
Speaker 1: Is this Stilantis working around the agreement they just gave
Speaker 1: into the United Auto Workers? Listen, hell with you United
Speaker 1: Auto Workers. Just make them in Mexico where there is
Speaker 1: no EPA and there are no OSHA regulations and labor
Speaker 1: happens to be a fraction of what it is here.
Speaker 1: We'll still get our internal combustion engine RAM trucks. Donald Trump,
Speaker 1: I think said yesterday during that Economic Forum he taxed
Speaker 1: these or tariff these as well.
Speaker 3: Right, And the problem is that the equations that govern
Speaker 3: cost and price are kind of out of control. On
Speaker 3: one side, if you go to China or Mexico and
Speaker 3: you get expense low expense on your you know people there, right,
Speaker 3: slave labor, slave slave labor. Whereas here we've got the
Speaker 3: exact opposite problem. You got longshorreman that won a seventy
Speaker 3: seven percent increase in their money. It's like, this is nuts.
Speaker 3: That's why business is offshore in the first place. I
Speaker 3: just find it incredibly interesting. The most American made cars
Speaker 3: in the United States now are Honda and Toyota. I mean,
Speaker 3: if you just go right up the road, that's where
Speaker 3: my Honda was made. Over in Greensburg. They got a
Speaker 3: couple of Toyota, same way. But they're non union plants
Speaker 3: where the workers have input into the product. Whereas if
Speaker 3: you go to Detroit or some of the other union shops,
Speaker 3: you can't change a bolt or the head on a
Speaker 3: screw without getting the union's approval. Well, why would you
Speaker 3: do that. So we've got these competing things. But I
Speaker 3: think the key point is with terrafts for starters, we
Speaker 3: used to not have an income tax. All we had
Speaker 3: were tariffs. That's how the United States was funded. And
Speaker 3: now we're in the state where the thought of you know,
Speaker 3: adding costs to goods that come from China is you know,
Speaker 3: somehow anti free market. It's like, wait, wait, wait a minute,
Speaker 3: you can't use free market in Chinese to say we're
Speaker 3: not on the same playing field. No, but we have
Speaker 3: to get to where competition matters, and so price comes
Speaker 3: down because a competition.
Speaker 2: Quality goes up because of competition.
Speaker 1: And you can't be competitive when you are dealing with
Speaker 1: countries that don't care about the environment, get their electricity
Speaker 1: a lot cheaper, or they don't have to deal with
Speaker 1: the Oshan regulations, plaintiffs litigation. I mean, we could go
Speaker 1: on and on and on, but why would the company
Speaker 1: go offshore to do this if they're real American companies.
Speaker 1: But the concept of a true American in favor of America,
Speaker 1: pro American company, I think that's gone way of the
Speaker 1: DODO for most multinationals anyway, because they don't really care.
Speaker 1: They're interested in a buck and it doesn't matter where
Speaker 1: the buck is made, and it doesn't matter what the
Speaker 1: politics of any given country are as long as they're
Speaker 1: able to make the buck, they're not American interested countries anymore.
Speaker 3: Right, So, I mean, you've got this conflict going on
Speaker 3: between you know, the the unions and the EPA. Between
Speaker 3: those two, it's so infinitely more expensive to do it here.
Speaker 3: You can't get labor that's adaptable and you know, intelligent,
Speaker 3: and that can't get the EPA stuff passed.
Speaker 1: And I'm glad you mentioned that in this context because
Speaker 1: part of the point Trump was making is all those
Speaker 1: jobs will come here, and they were saying, no, no,
Speaker 1: you're what you're gonna have, this is tit for tat.
Speaker 1: They're going to raise the price of American imported goods
Speaker 1: into their countries and that will reduce the amount of
Speaker 1: goods flowing in, reduce the amount of jobs here. And
Speaker 1: it's like, no, they'll just start making them here exactly.
Speaker 1: But can that really be successfully accomplished in the face
Speaker 1: of what we're talking about here, which is this outrageous
Speaker 1: cause of to doing business because of the EPA and
Speaker 1: right socia, et cetera.
Speaker 3: Here in Ohio, we're all thrilled about Intel coming in
Speaker 3: town to build a semiconductor plant. You know why, there's
Speaker 3: no semiconductor plants in the United States because you can't
Speaker 3: get the chemicals into them to make the semiconductors because
Speaker 3: of EPA rules.
Speaker 2: The main component is arsenic. It's a poison.
Speaker 3: But in the United States you have to have all
Speaker 3: these regulations on how you handle this that it's just
Speaker 3: too ridiculously expensive to build a semiconductor plant unless suddenly
Speaker 3: you have the government funding it. So you got the
Speaker 3: government giving you one money on one end and the
Speaker 3: costs skyrocketing because of the EPA on the other.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but they don't negate the EPA rules or give
Speaker 1: a free pass.
Speaker 2: No, you will.
Speaker 1: You'll get the subsidies from government to build this plant
Speaker 1: because we aren't competitive and able to build or compete
Speaker 1: with Chinese building these plants. We'll give you a work
Speaker 1: around for the EPA rules. They don't say that. They
Speaker 1: just say, here's the money. The grant money, build the factory.
Speaker 1: Will help you out, and then you'll have to deal
Speaker 1: with all the regulatory challenges and environmental lawsuits that you
Speaker 1: have to in court. So the key is from a
Speaker 1: policy perspective, we're currently talking about tear of but the
Speaker 1: other side of that is also going to strip away
Speaker 1: all the regulations. I think between the two you can
Speaker 1: bring back manufacturing. The other thing that people don't really
Speaker 1: understand is the goods we do sell overseas. That proportion
Speaker 1: of the total is fairly small. It is our market
Speaker 1: is our market. The United States is still the biggest
Speaker 1: market on the planet. Number two is China.
Speaker 3: They're not going to buy our stuff because they just
Speaker 3: what they do is they bring it in reverse engineer
Speaker 3: it and build it down the road. So China is
Speaker 3: not a market really for us. The only way we
Speaker 3: can succeed is the way of Apple, the way of Twitter,
Speaker 3: the way of Musk. We have to innovate so far
Speaker 3: in front of people that you can't get it anywhere else.
Speaker 3: If Apple would bring their manufacturing back home, you think
Speaker 3: Europe's not going to buy Apple phones.
Speaker 2: They have to. They're the state of the art.
Speaker 1: That you're right, But then we're going back to the
Speaker 1: original challenge that you mentioned earlier is all the components
Speaker 1: in the end Apple device carry pollutants and toxins that
Speaker 1: need to be sourced from someplace, and the sourcing materials
Speaker 1: are probably located in China somewhere well. Because we're not
Speaker 1: allowed to build a mine here. You know, we got
Speaker 1: too many environmental challenges standing in the way of us
Speaker 1: tapping into our own resources.
Speaker 3: Well, we left Afghanistan, China moved right in. Why because
Speaker 3: up in those mountains is a ton of lithium.
Speaker 1: Yeah, well let them have a go out of the
Speaker 1: Soviets failed, We failed, and we'll let the Chinese get
Speaker 1: involved in a quagmire. Eight six thirty eight will continue

Speaker 1: on over there, George, moving over, I am a We
Speaker 1: were talking about the auto industry generally speaking, and then
Speaker 1: we can move over to ev production, which, of course
Speaker 1: our administration is really pushing hard subsidies galore mandates on,
Speaker 1: you know, emission standards, which are going to force people
Speaker 1: into electric vehicles whether they want them or not. Saw
Speaker 1: this article. Germans not happy with their electric vehicles. It's
Speaker 1: a small sliver of the automobiles, but that's the direction.
Speaker 1: Germany's going full board. They want to be completely internal
Speaker 1: combustion engine free by was it twenty thirty five.
Speaker 2: Or something, Yeah, same as California.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but people aren't happy with them, and those who
Speaker 1: bought previously electric vehicles are going back to internal combustion engines,
Speaker 1: you know. And the elephant in the room for me
Speaker 1: on this whole thing is how blank and dangerous they
Speaker 1: are in terms of starting fires. And you can't put
Speaker 1: them out. I mean, if you submerge them in salt water,
Speaker 1: they'll blow up. They have a tendency to ignite spontaneously
Speaker 1: combust It's like a drummer for spinal tap.
Speaker 2: Yeah. The issue is the battery.
Speaker 3: So if you remember back the Samsung problem with their
Speaker 3: one of their phones, their note, the problem was that
Speaker 3: battery technology and just give you a little background. My
Speaker 3: my last five years have been spent on EV modeling,
Speaker 3: and I know in that industry with somebody who knows something.
Speaker 3: So the problem you have is that in order to
Speaker 3: make the battery smaller, they put the layers closer and
Speaker 3: closer together. And that particular battery for Samsung was made
Speaker 3: in China, and they didn't keep the tolerances. So as
Speaker 3: soon as two layers touch, game's over. It overheats, and
Speaker 3: once the lithium, you know, the lithium components catch fire,
Speaker 3: you can't do anything about it. I was working on
Speaker 3: a project to put hybrids inside of cherry pickers, and
Speaker 3: this is ten years ago, twenty years ago. So we
Speaker 3: had one of the early lithium ion batteries and I'm
Speaker 3: up in the cafeteria and I look out in the
Speaker 3: parking lot and the cherry pickers on fire.
Speaker 2: The lithium battery.
Speaker 3: It caught, and the fire Department's just surrounding it, watching
Speaker 3: it because there's nothing you can do once it catches.
Speaker 3: So from that perspective, you're crackt the lithium battery technology,
Speaker 3: which is pretty much the only one you can use right.
Speaker 2: Now because of cost and density and stuff.
Speaker 3: But it has this issue when you try and make
Speaker 3: it too small, it's going to catch fire. Now that
Speaker 3: the vehicle itself, an electric vehicle is by far the
Speaker 3: most efficient thing out there. It has less moving parts,
Speaker 3: it's easier to control. You can get you can get
Speaker 3: electric cars to do all kinds of crazy stuff. You've
Speaker 3: seen the ones now, the crawl they park by just
Speaker 3: literally going to side, anything about that. And I'm a
Speaker 3: performance guy, like zero to sixty times in handling, they
Speaker 3: win hands down.
Speaker 2: Have you ever driven a Tesla in ludicrous mode?
Speaker 3: No?
Speaker 2: Like, yeah, rip your face off.
Speaker 3: So the last I had a contract with, they brought
Speaker 3: in every EV out there and I'll bunch of the hybrid.
Speaker 2: So I drove the Porsche version.
Speaker 3: I've driven Mercedes, and so the guy told me, no,
Speaker 3: I'll take this Tesla. We're gonna put it in ludicrous mode.
Speaker 3: It's literally called ludacris, he says. But when you do it,
Speaker 3: when you accelerate, hold onto the steering wheel.
Speaker 2: And it took me. It took me a while to
Speaker 2: get used to the vehicle in the first place.
Speaker 3: So then I did. I was on a straightaway entrance
Speaker 3: ramp to a highway and I floored it. Holy cow,
Speaker 3: that thing will put you back in your seat. So
Speaker 3: electric through the charge pretty damn quickly too, exactly, especially
Speaker 3: when it's thirty two degrees outside.
Speaker 2: Now, see another downside risk.
Speaker 3: And so here's the basic problem with evs that nobody
Speaker 3: wants to talk about in the United States and most
Speaker 3: of the world. The way you get your electricity is
Speaker 3: by burning something.
Speaker 2: Yea.
Speaker 3: So let's think of an internal combustion engine. Literally, you
Speaker 3: burn something, it pushes a piston and moves the wheels.
Speaker 3: Two steps burn push, that's it. So it's extremely efficient.
Speaker 3: Now saying that when you fill your car with ten
Speaker 3: gallons of gas, four of it goes to pushing the vehicle,
Speaker 3: the other six goes to heating the air around the car.
Speaker 3: That's the best you can do. But now we're going
Speaker 3: to say, okay, we're going to make electric vehicle. So
Speaker 3: that four to six ratio holds true even when you
Speaker 3: generate electricity. So if you think of the generating electricity,
Speaker 3: you burn something, you don't use it to push, you
Speaker 3: use it to create steam, and the steam pushes. Then
Speaker 3: you got to convert the pushing of the engine or
Speaker 3: turbine into electricity, which has its inefficiencies, and then you
Speaker 3: got to send it one hundred miles to where the
Speaker 3: house is to charge the vehicle. There is no way
Speaker 3: that's more efficient than burning it inside of a piston.
Speaker 3: So you for every gallon of gas that you use
Speaker 3: virtually with an E you only need half that for
Speaker 3: an internal combustion engine. So all this bologne about less
Speaker 3: pollution is just less pollution at the vehicle. It's twice
Speaker 3: as much down on the electrical generation plant.
Speaker 2: They are not green vehicles.
Speaker 1: They want you to believe, though, that the generation point
Speaker 1: is a windmill, and we all know that's not the
Speaker 1: case with what eighty plus percent of the energy generated
Speaker 1: in the United States coming from natural gas.
Speaker 3: And.
Speaker 2: What do you do when there's no wind in no
Speaker 2: sign a nuclear plant?
Speaker 1: Yes, says Brian Thomas six forty seven fifty gout Kcity
Speaker 1: Talk station. Hey we might get them now that Google
Speaker 1: and Microsoft and all the big players in the AI
Speaker 1: market are buying their own and building their own, all
Speaker 1: the lobbyists saving the way for us to actually get
Speaker 1: efficient electricity generation foreign exchange. Speaking of internal combustion engines,
Speaker 1: I don't know, I don't know anything about Foreign Exchange.
Speaker 1: Whether they touch evs, don't care. I know they handle
Speaker 1: internal combustion engines. That's all we own, That's what the
Speaker 1: vast majority of people own, and that's where you go
Speaker 1: to get your car fixed. Buy an ASC certified Master

Speaker 2: You brought it up, so I'm gonna bring it up.
Speaker 1: I know it's not an uplifting topic to discuss, but
Speaker 1: you're not the only one who's concerned. I am concerned.
Speaker 1: I read about many people. You know, the great thinkers
Speaker 1: of the world are expressing concern. You know, we've had
Speaker 1: four plus years I'm even in the Trump administration with
Speaker 1: a couple of million illegal immigrants coming in. You got
Speaker 1: twenty million under the current administration, roughly a lot of
Speaker 1: them unvetted. A couple of million of them never hit
Speaker 1: any interaction with authorities. Ergo Bill Clinton, no vetting, right,
Speaker 1: and we have these occasional you know, terrorist acts. You
Speaker 1: got crazy people with guns or explosives or whatever. I
Speaker 1: haven't run into a single human being who isn't worried
Speaker 1: about you know, the day after the election, not so
Speaker 1: much worried about the election, but oh my god, if
Speaker 1: evil Orange Man gets elected. There's a lot of crazy
Speaker 1: leftist nut jobs out there, and of course the left
Speaker 1: believes they're all crazy right wing nut jobs. But then again,
Speaker 1: there's a whole bunch of variable nut jobs potentially within
Speaker 1: the illegal immigrant mix. They are an unknown variable and
Speaker 1: we just had one who was busted planning on launching
Speaker 1: an election day terrorist attack. What's your reaction to all that, George.
Speaker 3: There's a lot of things that are coming together that
Speaker 3: are so focused on this election. So let's go back
Speaker 3: four years to see what the future looks like. Right, So,
Speaker 3: four years ago, they knew that Biden was going to
Speaker 3: be having trouble to win that election. So the whole
Speaker 3: summer we had nothing but riots, Black Lives Matter, you know,
Speaker 3: the sit ins, occupy, all this craziness that basically fed
Speaker 3: the thing that when COVID hit, they were able to
Speaker 3: even really up the tension, and they wanted this pot stirring.
Speaker 3: And of course the media blames out on Trump this year.
Speaker 3: They've tried to kill him at least twice, maybe three times,
Speaker 3: purely an act of God that Trump's not dead right now,
Speaker 3: but yet they continue to call him a threat to democracy,
Speaker 3: He's Hitler, He's Nazi. You know, the deplorables are going
Speaker 3: to be the most evil people on the planet. All
Speaker 3: of this talk about how bad things will be if
Speaker 3: Trump wins, how do you go from that to he
Speaker 3: actually wins and peace is what happens afterwards. So the
Speaker 3: unrest seems to be just building up, like you know,
Speaker 3: the old pressure cooker, and if somebody takes the lid
Speaker 3: off of that sucker, it's just gonna explode.
Speaker 1: So Trump gets elected and then the chaos hits the street.
Speaker 1: It's all the BLM and anti fought occupy folks come
Speaker 1: out of the woodwork, the pink cat wearing ladies come
Speaker 1: out of the woodwork, and then they just what step
Speaker 1: back and say, well, we see, we told you so.
Speaker 2: Right exactly.
Speaker 3: So I think if Trump wins, we're going to see
Speaker 3: trouble the day afterwards. I think you're gonna see the
Speaker 3: nut jobs. You're gonna see the false flag events again
Speaker 3: like January sixth, where actually our own people in the
Speaker 3: government are creating this problem pretending to be somebody they aren't.
Speaker 3: But I think if she wins, our sides probably more
Speaker 3: likely to sit there and stew until she does something
Speaker 3: really stupid, like she starts reparations, which is what she
Speaker 3: talked about yesterday, or she starts taxing your iras. I
Speaker 3: think if she we've got maybe one the three months
Speaker 3: of calm, and then things get crazy because she starts
Speaker 3: doing what she you know, has said in the past
Speaker 3: she wants to do. So how do we get through
Speaker 3: this peacefully? Is the question. We've been having a lot
Speaker 3: of discussion as part of the Restore Liberty team of Okay,
Speaker 3: how do we become a resource for people on what
Speaker 3: you should be doing. You know, one idea is we're
Speaker 3: going to show people how to get food locally.
Speaker 2: That's a good idea.
Speaker 3: How do you get your supplies and what you need
Speaker 3: locally so that you don't rely on you know, interstate
Speaker 3: or even international. But you know, how do we get
Speaker 3: through it peacefully? That's the That's the question, and the
Speaker 3: bigger question is can we Well you'd.
Speaker 1: Think that we all would want to get through it peacefully.
Speaker 1: We've suffered through administrations. Both sides have suffered through administrations
Speaker 1: that they didn't agree with, didn't believe in. You know,
Speaker 1: Ronald Reagan was going to cause World War three And
Speaker 1: you know this feels like nineteen eighty Well it in
Speaker 1: many respects does, most notably the makeup of the electric
Speaker 1: and the electorate and this idea that blue collar workers
Speaker 1: are gravitating largely toward Trump, and that's exactly what happened
Speaker 1: in nineteen eighty. George Browneman Restore Liberty dot Us. I
