00:00:30.239 --> 00:00:35.479
<v Speaker 1>wony hunter gambler. It looks like the longest government shut

8
00:00:35.560 --> 00:00:40.000
<v Speaker 1>down in American history is about to finally come to

9
00:00:40.079 --> 00:00:46.079
<v Speaker 1>an end, as eight Democrats have now agreed to jump

10
00:00:46.119 --> 00:00:50.719
<v Speaker 1>over and vote to reopen the government. This is interesting

11
00:00:50.799 --> 00:00:55.439
<v Speaker 1>for sure, because Chuck Schumer's side has not gotten what

12
00:00:55.520 --> 00:01:00.240
<v Speaker 1>they wanted. They have not been able to pressure the

13
00:01:00.280 --> 00:01:05.719
<v Speaker 1>Republicans into voting for what they believe is the just position.

14
00:01:07.400 --> 00:01:13.040
<v Speaker 1>Now we sit back and we see this long game

15
00:01:13.200 --> 00:01:18.920
<v Speaker 1>in which the Democrats used the federal workers as their pawns.

16
00:01:19.519 --> 00:01:24.319
<v Speaker 1>They used snap recipients as their pawns, They used the

17
00:01:24.439 --> 00:01:29.480
<v Speaker 1>military as their pawns in their game of leverage, and

18
00:01:29.599 --> 00:01:33.280
<v Speaker 1>ultimately it didn't look like it worked. Now, I'm not

19
00:01:33.400 --> 00:01:35.879
<v Speaker 1>going to declare a complete and total victory for the

20
00:01:35.879 --> 00:01:39.319
<v Speaker 1>Republicans because I've not seen what they agreed to to

21
00:01:39.359 --> 00:01:43.079
<v Speaker 1>get the eight Democrats on board. So until I see that,

22
00:01:44.120 --> 00:01:46.760
<v Speaker 1>it's hard for me to say, well, the Republicans held

23
00:01:46.879 --> 00:01:50.040
<v Speaker 1>firm and they won, because I just don't know yet.

24
00:01:50.599 --> 00:01:52.879
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if anybody truly knows yet, because I

25
00:01:52.879 --> 00:01:57.480
<v Speaker 1>don't know who has seen whatever compromise they made to

26
00:01:57.519 --> 00:02:02.879
<v Speaker 1>get the eight Democrats on board. But it's probably going

27
00:02:02.920 --> 00:02:05.640
<v Speaker 1>to be more in the Republican favor than it would

28
00:02:05.640 --> 00:02:08.879
<v Speaker 1>have been to get Chuck Schumer on board. And it

29
00:02:08.919 --> 00:02:13.199
<v Speaker 1>looks like a victory. Now. You know, these same Democrats

30
00:02:13.199 --> 00:02:19.120
<v Speaker 1>who just the other day, following the elections in which

31
00:02:19.199 --> 00:02:23.240
<v Speaker 1>they held on to states they were expected to hold

32
00:02:23.280 --> 00:02:25.960
<v Speaker 1>on to, they got victories in areas that they were

33
00:02:26.159 --> 00:02:30.919
<v Speaker 1>always expected to get victories, and they poked their chest

34
00:02:31.000 --> 00:02:33.240
<v Speaker 1>out and told us that the Democrat Party was back,

35
00:02:33.280 --> 00:02:37.840
<v Speaker 1>and just mere days later they take a black eye

36
00:02:37.960 --> 00:02:42.840
<v Speaker 1>like this. There are those out there calling for new

37
00:02:42.919 --> 00:02:47.319
<v Speaker 1>leadership in the oulstra of Chuck Schumer. This doesn't sound

38
00:02:47.560 --> 00:02:52.639
<v Speaker 1>like winning from the Democrats. This sounds like full fledged

39
00:02:52.639 --> 00:02:55.960
<v Speaker 1>panic mode that we've seen for quite some time. The

40
00:02:56.000 --> 00:02:59.439
<v Speaker 1>media tried to give us this spin last week, and

41
00:02:59.520 --> 00:03:03.280
<v Speaker 1>we talked about it, that it's a false flag that

42
00:03:03.319 --> 00:03:05.960
<v Speaker 1>they were trying to fly and when they were telling

43
00:03:06.000 --> 00:03:11.319
<v Speaker 1>you the Democrats are back, they have proven themselves, and

44
00:03:11.400 --> 00:03:15.520
<v Speaker 1>yet they won in blue states, they didn't want to

45
00:03:15.560 --> 00:03:20.319
<v Speaker 1>talk about that they didn't really have a significant victory.

46
00:03:20.319 --> 00:03:24.960
<v Speaker 1>They always over inflate when a governor's mansion flips, it

47
00:03:25.000 --> 00:03:28.400
<v Speaker 1>doesn't necessarily mean as much as you think it does

48
00:03:29.039 --> 00:03:32.840
<v Speaker 1>in these states where they flip back and forth constantly.

49
00:03:34.639 --> 00:03:37.919
<v Speaker 1>It's one of those things where we just continue to

50
00:03:37.960 --> 00:03:42.199
<v Speaker 1>try to overinflate that this was the battle that was

51
00:03:42.240 --> 00:03:46.360
<v Speaker 1>going to tell you where the Democrats stood. And depending

52
00:03:46.439 --> 00:03:50.280
<v Speaker 1>on what the compromise is, it looks like the Democrats

53
00:03:50.319 --> 00:03:54.919
<v Speaker 1>took the yel here again, I'm not going to sit

54
00:03:55.000 --> 00:03:58.159
<v Speaker 1>back and claim a complete and total victory until I

55
00:03:58.280 --> 00:04:01.800
<v Speaker 1>see what the compromise was. The safe approach because from

56
00:04:01.800 --> 00:04:06.960
<v Speaker 1>one I know the Republicans they are spineless, so it

57
00:04:06.960 --> 00:04:09.639
<v Speaker 1>wouldn't surprise me to see them give in way more

58
00:04:09.680 --> 00:04:15.360
<v Speaker 1>concessions than they really needed to the bottom line is

59
00:04:15.439 --> 00:04:20.319
<v Speaker 1>this entire lockout, despite a lot of the media's attempts

60
00:04:20.360 --> 00:04:26.879
<v Speaker 1>to place blame on the Republicans, had fallen on the Democrats.

61
00:04:27.000 --> 00:04:33.879
<v Speaker 1>It was the Democrats who continued to have the black

62
00:04:33.959 --> 00:04:39.199
<v Speaker 1>eye because they were the ones voting against reopening the government,

63
00:04:39.879 --> 00:04:41.800
<v Speaker 1>despite the fact they would sit there in front of

64
00:04:41.839 --> 00:04:44.879
<v Speaker 1>a microphone and preach to you about how Republicans don't

65
00:04:44.879 --> 00:04:49.399
<v Speaker 1>care about snap recipients. They'd sit there and try to

66
00:04:49.480 --> 00:04:52.959
<v Speaker 1>spend it as it's the Republicans who were refusing to

67
00:04:52.959 --> 00:04:57.040
<v Speaker 1>make sure our military is taken care of. It was

68
00:04:57.079 --> 00:05:01.759
<v Speaker 1>always the Democrats who were voting no. The media, of course,

69
00:05:01.839 --> 00:05:04.279
<v Speaker 1>tried to spin it in their favor because that's what

70
00:05:04.360 --> 00:05:10.160
<v Speaker 1>the media does. They are the Democrat protection racket. Now

71
00:05:10.199 --> 00:05:12.639
<v Speaker 1>it's going to be interesting to see what happens in

72
00:05:12.680 --> 00:05:16.639
<v Speaker 1>the next couple of days. Does this coalition that they

73
00:05:16.759 --> 00:05:20.160
<v Speaker 1>form with these Democrats, does that hold to actually reopen

74
00:05:20.199 --> 00:05:24.879
<v Speaker 1>the government? It probably should, It probably will. How big

75
00:05:25.040 --> 00:05:26.879
<v Speaker 1>of a fracture is this going to put in the

76
00:05:26.920 --> 00:05:29.600
<v Speaker 1>Democrat Party? Is it going to be massive? I mean,

77
00:05:29.639 --> 00:05:33.480
<v Speaker 1>if there are calls for Chuck Schumer to be replaced

78
00:05:34.279 --> 00:05:38.439
<v Speaker 1>in his position of leadership, that's pretty huge. Because we

79
00:05:38.519 --> 00:05:42.639
<v Speaker 1>saw what happened with the Republicans when they went through

80
00:05:43.399 --> 00:05:48.519
<v Speaker 1>similar leadership battles. Will we see something like that on

81
00:05:48.560 --> 00:05:53.079
<v Speaker 1>the Democrat side. I don't know yet, But the Democrat Party,

82
00:05:53.399 --> 00:05:56.079
<v Speaker 1>as much as they want to be prideful and boastful

83
00:05:56.120 --> 00:06:01.399
<v Speaker 1>about last week's victory. This is the year sign that

84
00:06:01.439 --> 00:06:05.680
<v Speaker 1>they are not the victorious group that they want to

85
00:06:05.680 --> 00:06:08.360
<v Speaker 1>try to claim to be. This is the clearest sign

86
00:06:09.199 --> 00:06:14.560
<v Speaker 1>that there are fractures within the party. We were told

87
00:06:14.680 --> 00:06:17.040
<v Speaker 1>constantly that they were strong, they were going to keep

88
00:06:17.040 --> 00:06:21.519
<v Speaker 1>this thing shut down until the Republicans gave them everything

89
00:06:22.000 --> 00:06:26.920
<v Speaker 1>they wanted. At the moment, it looks like it's their

90
00:06:27.079 --> 00:06:30.120
<v Speaker 1>side that blinked. It looks like it's their side that

91
00:06:30.199 --> 00:06:34.720
<v Speaker 1>couldn't hold on to this hostage situation that they had

92
00:06:34.720 --> 00:06:40.360
<v Speaker 1>taken with the American government. It's going to be an

93
00:06:40.399 --> 00:06:45.600
<v Speaker 1>interesting couple of days. We'll see what happens as we

94
00:06:45.800 --> 00:06:51.439
<v Speaker 1>get closer to the reopening of the federal government. We'll

95
00:06:51.519 --> 00:06:59.519
<v Speaker 1>see exactly what the eight Democrats were able to get,

96
00:07:00.160 --> 00:07:04.680
<v Speaker 1>they got anything. We'll see exactly what the Republicans were

97
00:07:04.720 --> 00:07:07.360
<v Speaker 1>able to get, if they got anything more than what

98
00:07:07.399 --> 00:07:13.040
<v Speaker 1>they were already asking for in the first place. Like

99
00:07:13.040 --> 00:07:16.920
<v Speaker 1>I said, it's been a fascinating long journey to get here,

100
00:07:16.959 --> 00:07:19.920
<v Speaker 1>and of course it's really just another kick the can

101
00:07:20.000 --> 00:07:24.680
<v Speaker 1>down the road, because we'll be right back here before

102
00:07:24.759 --> 00:07:28.439
<v Speaker 1>you know it. I'm sure with yet another government shut

103
00:07:28.480 --> 00:07:33.120
<v Speaker 1>down and no true budget passed, but just another let's

104
00:07:33.480 --> 00:07:35.639
<v Speaker 1>kick that can further down the road because we're worried

105
00:07:35.639 --> 00:07:38.680
<v Speaker 1>about elections. We don't want to have to deal with that,

106
00:07:38.920 --> 00:07:44.199
<v Speaker 1>because that seems to be the way Washington works these days,

107
00:07:44.360 --> 00:07:51.040
<v Speaker 1>and it's not necessarily surprising in the slightest This has
