The reason I 6 00:00:17.280 --> 00:00:18.679 do the show is I get to talk to this 7 00:00:18.719 --> 00:00:22.199 guy for an hour, my friend from the West Coast, 8 00:00:22.359 --> 00:00:26.800 the moderate of California, the one, the great, the only, 9 00:00:27.039 --> 00:00:32.679 Samuel Mettler. Sam, Welcome to Night Side. How are you well? 10 00:00:32.759 --> 00:00:37.159 Gary? Thank you for having me back. And the only 11 00:00:37.280 --> 00:00:44.399 reason that I do this show is to, you know, 12 00:00:44.520 --> 00:00:47.679 further expose my brand. 13 00:00:50.799 --> 00:00:52.960 And what what brand that be? What I was gonna say, 14 00:00:52.960 --> 00:00:57.079 what brand would that be? Okay, Okay, I gotta stop. 15 00:00:57.159 --> 00:00:59.280 I gotta talk to you here. Well, let me ask 16 00:00:59.320 --> 00:01:02.119 you this. Have you been following the Karen Reid thing 17 00:01:02.159 --> 00:01:03.960 at all? 18 00:01:04.239 --> 00:01:06.079 I you know, I haven't. 19 00:01:06.640 --> 00:01:07.079 It's okay. 20 00:01:08.239 --> 00:01:12.439 It seemed to me like, I mean, it seemed to 21 00:01:12.439 --> 00:01:14.400 me like she did it, and and but then there 22 00:01:14.400 --> 00:01:19.000 were so many people who were supporting her and said, 23 00:01:19.079 --> 00:01:23.120 no way she didn't. I mean, I don't know enough 24 00:01:23.159 --> 00:01:26.079 about the case to really comment intelligently. I mean that 25 00:01:26.200 --> 00:01:29.680 usually doesn't stop me, but it's going to. 26 00:01:30.159 --> 00:01:31.959 Well I think what's wrong with it? Well, what's going 27 00:01:32.040 --> 00:01:34.359 to happen is they We had Christina Rex on it 28 00:01:34.879 --> 00:01:36.879 on last night. She does a great job for Channel four. 29 00:01:37.640 --> 00:01:39.480 If you do want, if you care, follow her on 30 00:01:39.519 --> 00:01:43.239 Instagram or listen of course the wb zeters radio and 31 00:01:43.359 --> 00:01:45.920 you'll get all the latest. But it's just going to 32 00:01:46.040 --> 00:01:47.799 end in a hung jury again. I mean, they're going 33 00:01:47.840 --> 00:01:49.760 to do it for another two weeks. They don't have 34 00:01:49.799 --> 00:01:53.280 a witness, they don't have enough evidence. It's just she's 35 00:01:53.319 --> 00:01:56.840 gonna walk again. And and then we found out that 36 00:01:56.920 --> 00:01:59.879 the defense, not the defense, the prosecution, paid three hundred 37 00:01:59.879 --> 00:02:03.000 and something thousand dollars of taxpayer money for an expert witness. 38 00:02:03.760 --> 00:02:05.359 So people are all pissed off about that. 39 00:02:06.079 --> 00:02:08.159 So yeah, well, I mean. 40 00:02:09.759 --> 00:02:14.520 Sometimes those witnesses, and you know, I've seen the paid 41 00:02:14.680 --> 00:02:21.800 witnesses before, and I have nothing against someone who is 42 00:02:21.879 --> 00:02:27.159 paid for their time, especially if they can show themselves 43 00:02:27.199 --> 00:02:32.360 to be a true, true expert that can really shed 44 00:02:32.439 --> 00:02:36.599 light on the case and give some competent testimony. 45 00:02:37.840 --> 00:02:39.919 Yeah, I agree, I think, but you have to do 46 00:02:39.919 --> 00:02:43.800 it on an individual, individual basis. But the problem is 47 00:02:43.800 --> 00:02:46.639 is that it's okay if the defense does it because 48 00:02:47.039 --> 00:02:49.639 she's spending it or her defense team is spending it. 49 00:02:49.879 --> 00:02:51.560 But people are going, wait a minute, this is the 50 00:02:51.639 --> 00:02:54.639 second time around. You couldn't convict it the first time, 51 00:02:54.960 --> 00:02:58.360 and you're spending three hundred and fifty thousand dollars to 52 00:02:58.439 --> 00:03:01.199 try to get her again. Yeah, I think that's the 53 00:03:02.000 --> 00:03:04.520 feeling with it. But anyways, we're moving right along because 54 00:03:04.560 --> 00:03:06.919 you haven't been following in. I'm just fatigued with it now. 55 00:03:07.360 --> 00:03:09.919 Everybody is just so tired of that. They're just like, Okay, 56 00:03:10.000 --> 00:03:12.560 can we make a decision, you know, And yeah, I mean, 57 00:03:13.000 --> 00:03:15.479 let's go. And a poor woman's life is on a 58 00:03:15.520 --> 00:03:17.439 line here, But I think she's just going to walk 59 00:03:17.439 --> 00:03:20.960 again because nothing has changed. They have some there's some 60 00:03:21.199 --> 00:03:24.800 new evidence. There's some more detailed evidence, but not enough. 61 00:03:25.159 --> 00:03:28.840 I don't think to make a determination either way. Period, 62 00:03:28.960 --> 00:03:32.680 end of story. So let's move on to mister Trump. 63 00:03:34.319 --> 00:03:35.039 I'm exhausted. 64 00:03:35.080 --> 00:03:38.400 I mean, I like, like, I gotta tell you. I mean, 65 00:03:39.680 --> 00:03:43.360 I don't know whether to be angry or at Trump, 66 00:03:43.639 --> 00:03:46.759 or angry or at Biden and his people. 67 00:03:48.800 --> 00:03:49.159 A lot. 68 00:03:49.319 --> 00:03:51.759 This is where I love you. I love you. Nobody 69 00:03:51.759 --> 00:03:54.639 would say that, Sam. People would either be Trump's an 70 00:03:54.639 --> 00:03:57.639 ass or Biden's an ass. I love you because you 71 00:03:57.719 --> 00:03:59.960 are objective. Please proceed. 72 00:04:00.960 --> 00:04:06.759 Yeah. Well, I mean you have people on the left 73 00:04:06.919 --> 00:04:13.360 who have said that Trump has tried to thwart democracy, 74 00:04:14.919 --> 00:04:20.720 and they have some really good points and evidence to 75 00:04:21.879 --> 00:04:29.920 absolutely make that an accusation that that has merit right. 76 00:04:30.079 --> 00:04:34.560 But what they don't do is look at I mean 77 00:04:35.360 --> 00:04:46.800 extremely extremely I would say, borderline. Oh my god, what's 78 00:04:46.839 --> 00:04:54.959 the word looking for h treason? Yeah, now, borderline treasonous 79 00:04:55.079 --> 00:05:04.439 activity from the folks around the Biden presidency and covering 80 00:05:04.519 --> 00:05:09.480 up a man who was not competent at all to 81 00:05:09.560 --> 00:05:17.000 be in office, and an entire media group, you know, 82 00:05:17.000 --> 00:05:21.439 of the mainstream that I hate to use cliches, but 83 00:05:21.639 --> 00:05:27.600 you know the mainstream media who helped him out. I 84 00:05:27.639 --> 00:05:31.759 mean it cracks me up with Jake Tapper's book, because 85 00:05:32.399 --> 00:05:36.839 I mean, here was a guy who absolutely covered for him, 86 00:05:37.759 --> 00:05:41.199 absolutely had heard I mean he said he had heard 87 00:05:41.319 --> 00:05:46.600 from cabinet members that he shouldn't run for a second term. 88 00:05:48.040 --> 00:05:51.040 The same thing with Chuck Todd, who said he had 89 00:05:51.079 --> 00:05:56.360 heard three years prior that that Biden shouldn't run again. 90 00:05:56.959 --> 00:06:02.319 And and these folks, you know, never investigated further, never 91 00:06:02.399 --> 00:06:07.639 reported on it, and only after the election, you know, say, oh, 92 00:06:07.759 --> 00:06:12.480 look at this, look at this. Isn't this terrible? And 93 00:06:12.600 --> 00:06:17.480 it was horrible, listen. I mean Trump with his tariffs, 94 00:06:18.120 --> 00:06:22.759 with his attack on free speech, with his corruption in 95 00:06:22.879 --> 00:06:28.720 enriching himself as president of the United States, accepting a 96 00:06:29.000 --> 00:06:36.199 a a plane from the cutter. I mean this is 97 00:06:36.759 --> 00:06:42.279 I mean, this is I would say impeachable stuff. If 98 00:06:43.120 --> 00:06:49.959 the Democrats and the media hadn't just overshot their wadds. 99 00:06:51.160 --> 00:06:52.639 If I could say chiefs, you. 100 00:06:52.639 --> 00:06:55.920 Already did collectively. But I noticed that you went, you 101 00:06:55.959 --> 00:06:56.439 went plural. 102 00:06:56.920 --> 00:07:00.920 Yes, they they all did that in the first term, 103 00:07:01.800 --> 00:07:07.800 right when the Russia Gate wasn't true, and they were 104 00:07:08.480 --> 00:07:13.519 you know, over over criticizing, over stuff that you know, 105 00:07:13.680 --> 00:07:19.199 every syllable out of his mouth, right, And I'll tell 106 00:07:19.199 --> 00:07:23.680 you the American public gods so tired of the constant 107 00:07:23.720 --> 00:07:26.759 Trump Trump, Trump, Trump, Trump that they said fu and 108 00:07:26.800 --> 00:07:31.160 they voted for him again, you know. And so people 109 00:07:31.240 --> 00:07:35.920 don't trust the news media whatsoever because they can't call 110 00:07:36.040 --> 00:07:41.319 balls and strikes. They can't say both parties are absolutely corrupt, 111 00:07:41.959 --> 00:07:50.160 and the leaders from both parties are both of them are. 112 00:07:50.240 --> 00:07:52.519 Incompetent, competent and they are incompetent. 113 00:07:52.879 --> 00:07:55.199 And even even we talked about it with Kamala Harris, 114 00:07:55.279 --> 00:07:57.319 she was not prepared for the job. I don't even 115 00:07:57.360 --> 00:07:58.839 think she really wanted the job. 116 00:08:00.079 --> 00:08:04.360 Know she wants the job. Let's just say I know 117 00:08:04.519 --> 00:08:07.480 someone very close to her. 118 00:08:08.399 --> 00:08:12.800 And there was a lot of. 119 00:08:14.360 --> 00:08:18.519 Crying, cursing, screaming, and rocking back and forth on the floor. 120 00:08:18.800 --> 00:08:25.199 Oh really, Yes, she had quite a tantrum. Really, that's 121 00:08:25.240 --> 00:08:27.240 breaking news. Can we get a breaking news sound in here? 122 00:08:27.600 --> 00:08:29.439 Do we have any video? Do we have any video 123 00:08:29.480 --> 00:08:29.600 of that? 124 00:08:29.759 --> 00:08:32.879 Oh? My god, I will not reveal my source. So 125 00:08:33.159 --> 00:08:39.559 my source was there is impeccable and it is absolutely 126 00:08:39.799 --> 00:08:40.200 the truth. 127 00:08:40.679 --> 00:08:42.039 That's not very presidential. 128 00:08:43.720 --> 00:08:48.159 No, listen, I mean Hillary locked herself in the bathroom 129 00:08:48.200 --> 00:08:53.519 when she lost. I mean, and and she didn't she 130 00:08:53.639 --> 00:08:59.120 didn't give her concession speech until the next day, I remember, 131 00:08:59.320 --> 00:09:02.159 I do. I mean, because she was too upset and 132 00:09:02.279 --> 00:09:03.360 apparently sobbing. 133 00:09:05.320 --> 00:09:10.320 So I mean, you gotta find some new blood. You 134 00:09:10.559 --> 00:09:12.559 said it, kid, you said it. 135 00:09:12.679 --> 00:09:16.759 On both sides. Are some people that are moderate, you. 136 00:09:16.840 --> 00:09:25.279 Mean reasonable, That's what I think? Reasonable?

That's it. 140 00:09:39.600 --> 00:09:45.480 I mean, I mean, you know, have pariffs, tariffs, I 141 00:09:45.600 --> 00:09:46.720 mean talk about stupid. 142 00:09:48.000 --> 00:09:50.039 She had it, I mean she you really, I mean 143 00:09:50.120 --> 00:09:54.159 she could have. Anybody with some talent and a brain 144 00:09:54.279 --> 00:09:56.000 could have won that, and she just didn't. 145 00:09:56.320 --> 00:09:57.840 Just didn't have it. I mean, well, but the running 146 00:09:57.879 --> 00:10:01.320 mate was a disaster. They should have pried married. I mean, 147 00:10:01.600 --> 00:10:05.039 of course I had a primary. They they would have 148 00:10:05.120 --> 00:10:08.000 had someone that that could have beaten Trump. They could 149 00:10:08.039 --> 00:10:12.440 have had a moderate Democrat that could have beaten Trump. Right, 150 00:10:12.639 --> 00:10:15.919 but you've got you've got. I mean, listen, the Democrats 151 00:10:16.679 --> 00:10:18.919 have abysmal approval ratings. 152 00:10:19.720 --> 00:10:26.320 And I mean Trump, if you were just normal, could 153 00:10:26.600 --> 00:10:30.720 you know the Republicans could be looking at years and 154 00:10:30.919 --> 00:10:32.200 years of dominance, right. 155 00:10:32.240 --> 00:10:33.759 I mean if Trump, like you, I have said this 156 00:10:33.879 --> 00:10:36.000 before to you, if Trump came in, was just a 157 00:10:36.039 --> 00:10:39.399 figurehead and just let the other people run the show, 158 00:10:39.720 --> 00:10:42.200 it came out and be Trump and did his thing 159 00:10:43.000 --> 00:10:46.480 and didn't go bananas with these tariffs, he'd be fine. 160 00:10:47.039 --> 00:10:47.320 Trump. 161 00:10:47.720 --> 00:10:50.480 All Trump had to do was do nothing, and he 162 00:10:50.519 --> 00:10:54.519 would have wanted to do nothing. He would have won 163 00:10:54.639 --> 00:10:57.200 back to back terms and would have set somebody up, 164 00:10:57.759 --> 00:11:00.679 set somebody else up to take a spot. Just do nothing. 165 00:11:00.720 --> 00:11:03.120 He refuses to be presidential. 166 00:11:03.480 --> 00:11:04.840 Yeah, and that's all you have to do, is to 167 00:11:04.840 --> 00:11:07.039 be presidential. I mean, I think it'd be a great 168 00:11:07.080 --> 00:11:09.159 gig if you said to me, Gary, you can be 169 00:11:09.240 --> 00:11:11.399 president of the United States.

Oh here it is, 186 00:11:57.519 --> 00:12:01.840 They're on, They're off. Court rulings had to whiplash for 187 00:12:01.960 --> 00:12:06.519 businesses or Trump tarriffs. I've lost track. I honestly, I said, 188 00:12:06.639 --> 00:12:08.200 I go, I got to look this up, and I went, 189 00:12:08.639 --> 00:12:10.200 I don't want to look this up again.

He there are still 192 00:12:17.120 --> 00:12:24.399 some tariffs on some countries. He has been blocked from 193 00:12:25.519 --> 00:12:32.399 the you know, really major major tariffs, you know, but 194 00:12:33.919 --> 00:12:38.399 he has, I mean, just talking about it and promising 195 00:12:38.519 --> 00:12:45.240 to do it has moved markets horrendously. Sure, right, I mean, 196 00:12:45.399 --> 00:12:48.679 and and I got to tell you in Asia, I mean, 197 00:12:48.720 --> 00:12:52.200 anyone that's importing stuff. I mean, I have a friend 198 00:12:52.279 --> 00:12:57.240 who thinks he's going to go out of business. And listen, 199 00:12:57.519 --> 00:13:02.519 they make things less expensive over there. And yeah, there 200 00:13:02.559 --> 00:13:05.039 are a lot of reasons for that. And there's some 201 00:13:05.200 --> 00:13:10.600 price fixing. And I mean, if we had affordable prices here, 202 00:13:11.600 --> 00:13:16.440 we wouldn't have to import you know, uh, stuff made 203 00:13:16.519 --> 00:13:21.879 by well, you know, perhaps slave labor. But tell that 204 00:13:22.159 --> 00:13:26.879 to a person who is on a tight budget and needs, 205 00:13:27.519 --> 00:13:31.720 you know, clothes for the kids, right, sure, right? And 206 00:13:33.200 --> 00:13:35.960 and it's just I mean, you have to look out 207 00:13:36.080 --> 00:13:40.639 for your own. It's sometimes you can't afford h to 208 00:13:40.799 --> 00:13:41.320 be noble. 209 00:13:44.120 --> 00:13:47.600 Well, but he doesn't have a plan. He just said 210 00:13:47.639 --> 00:13:50.159 what he wants to do, but there's no plan to enacted. 211 00:13:50.799 --> 00:13:53.679 If you're going to try to change the economic structure 212 00:13:53.679 --> 00:13:57.440 of the country, it takes years. It doesn't take You 213 00:13:57.559 --> 00:13:59.600 can't do it in a couple of days. It's not 214 00:13:59.759 --> 00:14:02.799 this way President Trump. Like you buy a building. You 215 00:14:02.919 --> 00:14:05.720 buy a building, I'm going to renovate it. It doesn't 216 00:14:05.840 --> 00:14:10.120 work like that. You know, you have to change company structures. 217 00:14:10.600 --> 00:14:13.399 Things are imported from Canada. Things are you know, things 218 00:14:13.440 --> 00:14:17.039 are imported from five countries and assembled in Nashville. Right, 219 00:14:17.759 --> 00:14:21.360 So you just can't flip a switch and say, okay, 220 00:14:21.519 --> 00:14:24.559 all of a sudden. I mean, look when companies divested 221 00:14:24.600 --> 00:14:30.240 from Russia, they said, these major, major, fortune one hundred 222 00:14:30.279 --> 00:14:33.600 companies said, we can't just all of a sudden say 223 00:14:34.120 --> 00:14:37.960 we're leaving. We have to take care of a workforce, 224 00:14:38.080 --> 00:14:41.320 we have to shut down corporations. It takes time to 225 00:14:41.440 --> 00:14:45.279 do this stuff. And he's too stupid to realize it. 226 00:14:47.919 --> 00:14:53.679 He's, like many people these days, a man of instant 227 00:14:53.759 --> 00:15:02.039 gratification needs. And I don't think he's seen he's you know, 228 00:15:02.240 --> 00:15:04.080 the long game whatsoever. 229 00:15:04.360 --> 00:15:09.200 He does not like theory. We get it. Yeah, No, 230 00:15:09.320 --> 00:15:09.559 it's not. 231 00:15:09.840 --> 00:15:12.559 It's a terrible idea in theory. Why is it a 232 00:15:12.720 --> 00:15:19.240 terrible because it's not capitalism. Capitalism is free market. This 233 00:15:19.360 --> 00:15:23.840 country was built on free market. And you know, once 234 00:15:23.919 --> 00:15:30.799 you start, whether it be price fixing or taxing, you're 235 00:15:30.960 --> 00:15:36.679 you're just punishing the consumer and you're you know, and 236 00:15:36.960 --> 00:15:39.000 you're you're also killing business. 237 00:15:39.159 --> 00:15:42.159 Yeah, I hear you, because the company isn't going to 238 00:15:42.200 --> 00:15:43.679 pay for You're just going to pass it along to 239 00:15:43.759 --> 00:15:45.879 the consumer. If the car is going to cost sixty 240 00:15:47.080 --> 00:15:48.559 is not going to pay for the sixty percent? 241 00:15:49.720 --> 00:15:53.440 Yeah, well, plus people will stop buying the products, right right, 242 00:15:54.519 --> 00:15:58.159 I mean you're killing You're going to kill jobs, you 243 00:15:58.679 --> 00:16:02.679 kill company, these, you kill the individual. I mean, it's 244 00:16:03.080 --> 00:16:08.879 it's all around. It's it's there. It's a terrible idea. 245 00:16:09.120 --> 00:16:12.159 And this kind of stuff has been proven over and 246 00:16:12.279 --> 00:16:18.080 over again to be terrible, terrible for the economy. It's 247 00:16:18.120 --> 00:16:22.960 funny because the left, it's so funny to see the 248 00:16:23.080 --> 00:16:29.200 weird uh change in both parties on what their core 249 00:16:29.320 --> 00:16:36.840 beliefs are because of you know who who is in 250 00:16:37.000 --> 00:16:40.279 their corner who proposes it. You know, the left is 251 00:16:40.399 --> 00:16:47.120 anti war, right has always been anti war. Well, Biden 252 00:16:47.320 --> 00:16:52.120 was pro Ukraine, so they're pro war and they're Ukraine. 253 00:16:52.879 --> 00:16:55.200 I mean years ago, if I mean, if it had 254 00:16:55.240 --> 00:16:59.840 been a Republican that had suggested that we help on 255 00:17:00.279 --> 00:17:07.559 Ukraine against Russia, the Liberals and Democrats would have been 256 00:17:07.759 --> 00:17:14.000 in an uproar for US meddling in uh in war 257 00:17:14.319 --> 00:17:15.119 in another country. 258 00:17:15.240 --> 00:17:16.680 You think, so, Sam, don't you think some of the 259 00:17:16.759 --> 00:17:18.359 Leberals would have said, we have to take on the 260 00:17:18.400 --> 00:17:19.119 evil Empire. 261 00:17:19.599 --> 00:17:25.480 No, listen, they they know because they don't believe. I mean, 262 00:17:25.680 --> 00:17:30.799 Bernie Sanders had his honeymoon in Russia, for God's sakes. 263 00:17:31.400 --> 00:17:34.480 They don't hate Russia. It's only recently that they hate 264 00:17:34.559 --> 00:17:35.519 that they've hated Russia. 265 00:17:37.319 --> 00:17:37.759 And and. 266 00:17:39.599 --> 00:17:42.960 I mean it's it's hilarious because I mean, I look 267 00:17:43.000 --> 00:17:47.480 at Afghanistan, the war in Afghanistan, you know, during the 268 00:17:47.559 --> 00:17:51.359 Reagan years, when we helped out the the people that 269 00:17:51.759 --> 00:17:53.680 you know became the Taliban. 270 00:17:54.240 --> 00:17:55.920 Took down the towers of course, yeah. 271 00:17:55.880 --> 00:18:01.799 Yeah, yes, Numu t well, the them housed them. They 272 00:18:02.160 --> 00:18:05.920 it was really the Saudis that did that, you know, 273 00:18:06.039 --> 00:18:11.759 al Qaeda, which was mostly Saudis. But you know, and 274 00:18:11.920 --> 00:18:17.759 yet we're we're friends with them. But the Liberals railed 275 00:18:18.319 --> 00:18:25.519 against our involvement in Afghanistan, right, I mean, that's why 276 00:18:25.640 --> 00:18:32.440 Jimmy Carter uh uh pulled uh the athletes from the Olympics. 277 00:18:33.039 --> 00:18:33.200 Right. 278 00:18:34.759 --> 00:18:37.680 So now they're you know, they're all in favor of 279 00:18:38.880 --> 00:18:42.200 meddling in Ukraine and Russia. And by the way, I'm 280 00:18:42.319 --> 00:18:45.960 I'm for I'm for it because Russia just you can't 281 00:18:46.079 --> 00:18:51.200 just invade a country and and try to change their 282 00:18:51.240 --> 00:18:57.039 borders U And so you know, and Putin's insane and 283 00:18:57.279 --> 00:19:02.240 has been for you know years, but you know, they're 284 00:19:02.440 --> 00:19:06.400 there and and and then the Republicans are against the 285 00:19:06.559 --> 00:19:11.400 Ukraine war right. And now with tariffs, Republicans are for 286 00:19:11.640 --> 00:19:15.000 these tariffs, right, although some of them are beginning to 287 00:19:15.119 --> 00:19:18.880 talk uh uh, you know, talk out of turn. The Democrats, 288 00:19:20.119 --> 00:19:23.279 they are all for taxes and tariffs. Let's punish people 289 00:19:24.680 --> 00:19:29.920 who don't play fair and and raise their taxes. Well, 290 00:19:30.599 --> 00:19:36.240 it's it's completely turned around now on what they believe. 291 00:19:36.359 --> 00:19:40.359 So it's it's so it's so odd and everyone is 292 00:19:40.519 --> 00:19:45.160 so dug into their their own tribe that they they 293 00:19:45.359 --> 00:19:50.039 refuse to even listen to another perspective. 294 00:19:51.799 --> 00:19:53.440 Will it be the demise of our country? 295 00:19:54.960 --> 00:19:55.160 God? 296 00:19:55.319 --> 00:19:58.640 No, oh God, I was I had momentum there. I 297 00:19:58.759 --> 00:20:01.079 was expecting something more drum No. 298 00:20:01.599 --> 00:20:06.359 No, no, I mean I love the chicken littles. We 299 00:20:06.759 --> 00:20:10.319 say democracy is dying and we're all gonna you know, 300 00:20:10.599 --> 00:20:14.319 that's that's the end of us and and we've never 301 00:20:14.440 --> 00:20:15.039 had it worse. 302 00:20:15.279 --> 00:20:18.599 I love well, that's I I agree, Sam, you I 303 00:20:18.880 --> 00:20:21.240 you nail that. I have breakfast with a friend of mine. 304 00:20:22.440 --> 00:20:24.519 He's a great guy, but he's like a nervous wreck. 305 00:20:24.680 --> 00:20:30.599 You know, over this, I go listen. Okay, Vietnam gas crisis, Uh, 306 00:20:30.960 --> 00:20:37.119 the depression of World War, World War one, the Civil War, 307 00:20:37.799 --> 00:20:43.039 you know this stuff has happened, the pandemic. You know, 308 00:20:43.279 --> 00:20:46.960 we have survived, We've been we we I agree with 309 00:20:47.039 --> 00:20:50.599 you one hundred percent on this, one hundred Yeah. 310 00:20:50.640 --> 00:20:56.319 We're too strong. We're too strong a country to go down. 311 00:20:57.200 --> 00:21:01.200 But that doesn't mean we can't be injured. Uh and 312 00:21:01.720 --> 00:21:06.359 uh and have tough times. But it's not the end 313 00:21:06.440 --> 00:21:08.319 of this story here. I mean, it's silly. 314 00:21:08.839 --> 00:21:11.400 Hey, what about I want to talk about the Cutter plane. 315 00:21:11.440 --> 00:21:13.599 What do we call that?

Trump says, oh, 318 00:21:24.200 --> 00:21:26.480 it's a great gift. Thanks, and everybody talks about the 319 00:21:26.799 --> 00:21:29.720 ethical end of it, like, well, you can't accept the 320 00:21:29.759 --> 00:21:33.079 gift from another country. Has anybody brought up the idea 321 00:21:33.240 --> 00:21:37.119 is what is on the plane? What is there any 322 00:21:37.200 --> 00:21:40.880 sort of sort of spy mechanism.

So it's just a time for an independent 373 00:24:45.960 --> 00:24:46.240 to win. 374 00:24:48.480 --> 00:24:51.880 No, I don't think they can. I mean I think 375 00:24:51.920 --> 00:24:56.279 they would have to be a extremely wealthy and be 376 00:24:56.759 --> 00:25:02.359 they would have to have an enormous presence in you know, 377 00:25:02.640 --> 00:25:04.559 in the in the press, in the media. People have 378 00:25:04.680 --> 00:25:08.440 to I mean instant name you know, uh, recognition. 379 00:25:10.279 --> 00:25:12.960 So if you're good looking, if you're good looking man 380 00:25:13.079 --> 00:25:15.920 or woman and rich, why would you want the job? 381 00:25:17.200 --> 00:25:20.519 No, that's a that's exactly right. I mean it it 382 00:25:20.680 --> 00:25:23.720 takes such a toll on on people. You see people 383 00:25:23.720 --> 00:25:26.000 when they come in and when and when they go out, 384 00:25:26.440 --> 00:25:31.359 and they look a lot different. You know, I look 385 00:25:31.400 --> 00:25:34.319 old enough. I can't imagine what I'd look like, you know, 386 00:25:34.480 --> 00:25:39.359 four years. But you know what what Chris is saying 387 00:25:39.640 --> 00:25:43.720 is is, you know, draining the swamp, right, We'd love 388 00:25:43.799 --> 00:25:50.119 to drain the swamp for real. And I don't think 389 00:25:50.240 --> 00:25:57.440 that's going to happen quickly. I think that it's going 390 00:25:57.519 --> 00:26:00.640 to ping pong between extremes unfortunately. 391 00:26:02.160 --> 00:26:03.480 And I think. 392 00:26:05.440 --> 00:26:10.240 I mean, to me, it's getting care rid of career politicians. 393 00:26:11.359 --> 00:26:21.119 Is is the biggest necessity? Yes, that's never going to happen. Yeah, 394 00:26:21.839 --> 00:26:25.519 because they won't vote themselves out, you know. I mean 395 00:26:25.599 --> 00:26:29.640 it's like, you know, why would I give up this gig? 396 00:26:29.720 --> 00:26:32.480 I mean, look at Biden. That is a prime example, 397 00:26:34.160 --> 00:26:37.119 that guy that well Biden, he doesn't want to leave. 398 00:26:37.640 --> 00:26:42.640 He still doesn't want to Feinstein at the end, Oh yeah, yeah, 399 00:26:42.640 --> 00:26:43.960 they don't want to leave. 400 00:26:45.200 --> 00:26:47.039 They don't mean why would you? 401 00:26:47.839 --> 00:26:50.160
