Speaker 1: This is Dan Caplis and welcome to today's online podcast

Speaker 1: and to subscribe, download, and listen to the show every
Speaker 1: single day on your favorite podcast platform. Oh, the sky
Speaker 1: is falling. The sky is falling, Ryan, Wow, get your
Speaker 1: football helmet on.
Speaker 2: Is this just.
Speaker 1: Fascinating to watch, isn't it? And the reason I can
Speaker 1: laugh about it and kind of enjoy it is there
Speaker 1: is no doubt in my mind this is all going
Speaker 1: to end very, very well. But you heard at the top.
Speaker 1: We just didn't get the usual propaganda from ABC News today.
Speaker 1: Oh no, we got the special report. You notice that
Speaker 1: it was ABC News special report of the Martians land.
Speaker 1: If the Martians just landed, you know, is there a
Speaker 1: nuclear war somewhere? Oh no, no, no, it's the stock
Speaker 1: markets down today, right, national crisis.
Speaker 2: Right see, we were right all along.
Speaker 1: Trump's Trump's horrible, Tamala should be president. And I thought,
Speaker 1: you know, I'm I was in court today, the privilege
Speaker 1: of being in court in Colorado Springs, Colorado, and I thought, well,
Speaker 1: you know, okay, it's going.
Speaker 2: To be a rough day.
Speaker 1: Stocks are down ten or twenty percent, you know, Black Monday,
Speaker 1: all this stuff, and so I checked and it looks
Speaker 1: like about a five percent hit today.
Speaker 2: Right as a guy with the four oh one K,
Speaker 2: I don't like to see that.
Speaker 1: But it's it's not like Black Monday or Black Friday
Speaker 1: or the market crash or anything like that. It's just that,
Speaker 1: and everybody sees it. And that's where the left. You know,
Speaker 1: they're not stupid, they're s'mrons. They're smart people doing moronic
Speaker 1: things because hate interrupts brain function and they just don't
Speaker 1: see that everybody can see right now, they're rooting for
Speaker 1: America to fail. They're rooting for our economy to crash.
Speaker 1: Does anybody have any doubt that whatsoever that Jared Polis
Speaker 1: would want to see We just want to see it
Speaker 1: all crash tomorrow or Chuck Schumer or anybody else, Not
Speaker 1: that anybody cares, but Polis now echoing the line, and
Speaker 1: it wasn't a very good one. It was something that
Speaker 1: you know, probably a first year in turn wrote somebody
Speaker 1: still in college.
Speaker 2: From a king Jeffries. But Jared Paulie had to pick.
Speaker 3: Up on this is one of the biggest tax hikes
Speaker 3: in American history.
Speaker 4: It's not liberation day, it's recession day.
Speaker 2: Yeah, boy, that's creative, right.
Speaker 1: So do you really think Jared Paulis wants to see
Speaker 1: the economy store right now? Do you think Jared Poulis
Speaker 1: wants to see your four oh one k go up
Speaker 1: or down? Do you think he wants to see you
Speaker 1: get paid more or less in your job? Do you
Speaker 1: think he wants to see your family right now doing
Speaker 1: better or worse? How about Michael Bennett? How about John
Speaker 1: hick and Lopper? How about Chuck Schumer? Everybody knows the answer, right,
Speaker 1: which just prouves they don't care about you at all.
Speaker 1: But the beautiful thing here is that it's like road Runner, right,
Speaker 1: Wiley Coyote, I mean, or you want to think about
Speaker 1: the football being pulled away from Charlie Brown. It's going
Speaker 1: to happen to them on this and it's just a
Speaker 1: matter of whether it's sooner or later. So and again,
Speaker 1: you don't want to take stock advice from me, believe me,
Speaker 1: But you haven't lost a dime until you sell. So
Speaker 1: all these headlines about trillions and market value wiped out yet,
Speaker 1: but nobody loses a dime until they sell And remember COVID.
Speaker 1: And I'm not saying there's an all fours comparison to
Speaker 1: COVID here at all, but remember COVID. And you know, again,
Speaker 1: I do not consider myself a great stock picker or
Speaker 1: anything like that. All I know, even in dummy like me,
Speaker 1: was able to do, you know, relatively speaking for my
Speaker 1: modest investments very well, you know, just just not giving
Speaker 1: into the panic during COVID.
Speaker 2: So I think this is.
Speaker 1: Going to be a great buying opportunity, whether it's today, tomorrow,
Speaker 1: week from now, months from now, whatever. But does anybody
Speaker 1: truly in their right mind, And I appreciate the fact,
Speaker 1: and this is physiological that the Trump haters their brains
Speaker 1: don't work correctly. And that's not meant as a it's
Speaker 1: just literal, it's clinical. Their brains don't work correctly because
Speaker 1: you know from your life, I know from mine that
Speaker 1: hate interrupts brain function. Anger interrupts brain function. And they
Speaker 1: hate Trump so much their brains don't work.
Speaker 2: Right.
Speaker 1: Can any thinking person believe that Donald Trump, who just
Speaker 1: overcame more than anybody I can think of right off
Speaker 1: the bat in the history of America to become president
Speaker 1: again for a second term, that Donald Trump is going
Speaker 1: to stumble into some kind of economic disaster. Not a chance,
Speaker 1: not a chance. So I just start from that simple
Speaker 1: common sense point, right, there is no way in the
Speaker 1: world he's going to blow up his own presidency. And
Speaker 1: then you look at the economic success he has had
Speaker 1: in his own life and critically and maybe even more
Speaker 1: importantly in his first term in office. And then you
Speaker 1: look at the track record of his critics and who
Speaker 1: you're going to trust ghostbusters, Yeah, three or three someone
Speaker 1: three eight two five five takes d an five seven seven,
Speaker 1: three nine. And the starting point is right. This is
Speaker 1: coming from a guy I have not spent my life
Speaker 1: studying tariffs. I do not claim to be a tariff
Speaker 1: expert of any kind. I do claim to be an
Speaker 1: expert in common sense, and I have been around a
Speaker 1: little while. And so that's what leaves me with great
Speaker 1: comfort right now that this is going to end very well.
Speaker 1: But we want to bring you both sides. So I
Speaker 1: want to bring you a lot of sound on different
Speaker 1: sides of this whole tariff thing today, and then we'll
Speaker 1: continue the conversation as it rolls out toward what I
Speaker 1: expect to be a very happy conclusion.
Speaker 2: Sooner than later.
Speaker 1: And that's the other thing that people forget in this conversation, right,
Speaker 1: American might.
Speaker 2: And I'm just talking clinically now.
Speaker 1: I'm not even talking about the pride you probably feel
Speaker 1: in your chest, the pride you feel for the United
Speaker 1: States of America, how we're all lottery winners to even
Speaker 1: be born here. I'm not even talking about those justifiable emotions.
Speaker 1: I'm just talking clinically here, American might. And when America
Speaker 1: takes a position on the world economic stage, that now
Speaker 1: all of a sudden things are going to have to
Speaker 1: be more fair.
Speaker 2: Now. Is it really as if all these other nations
Speaker 2: in the world can.
Speaker 1: Just double middle finger America and laugh at us and say, oh,
Speaker 1: you're going down now, big boy.
Speaker 2: I don't think so. I don't think that's the way
Speaker 2: it works.
Speaker 1: So there are a lot of reasons to believe, just
Speaker 1: starting with basic common sense reasons that I know this
Speaker 1: is going to end well. But I come back to
Speaker 1: this other premise, and I'd love to get your take
Speaker 1: on this. You can text us, as you know, da
Speaker 1: N five seven seven three nine, or call, which I
Speaker 1: really enjoy three h three someone three eight two five five.
Speaker 1: But but just broadening it out, and we could talk
Speaker 1: of course economically as well, but broadening it out. How
Speaker 1: many things are there in life where you get great progress,
Speaker 1: great breakthrough, break great solutions to a big problem without
Speaker 1: some pain, without some sacrifice. That's just not the human condition,
Speaker 1: that's not the way it works. I know, Ryan, you've
Speaker 1: been thinking all night Kellys two about some exception, and
Speaker 1: I know some exception.
Speaker 2: Out there exists. But whether it's childbirth itself.
Speaker 1: Right, the greatest thing that can happen in all of humankind,
Speaker 1: whether it's childbirth itself or something in business, or it's
Speaker 1: something in sports, or it's something in a relationship, what
Speaker 1: great breakthrough, particularly, what kind of problem solving ever happens
Speaker 1: without some pain, without some sacrifice.
Speaker 2: And that's you know why this country.
Speaker 1: Has gotten into such big trouble now, right, just whether
Speaker 1: it's Republicans Democrats, there's been very little tolerance to the
Speaker 1: point of about zero or any kind of pain while
Speaker 1: somebody's in office, because that their first priority is protecting
Speaker 1: themselves and protecting their power and their grip on power
Speaker 1: and their influence, and if they're up for reelection, their
Speaker 1: chance for reelection, et cetera.
Speaker 2: So none of these elected people.
Speaker 1: Very few on either side both sides are willing to
Speaker 1: do anything that's going to inflict any pain, even though
Speaker 1: they know it just keeps the.
Speaker 2: Car moving toward the cliff.
Speaker 1: I respect the heck out of Trump for being willing
Speaker 1: to say, no, we're going to have to endure some
Speaker 1: pain to break this cycle that is headed us, heading
Speaker 1: us toward a very very bad end.
Speaker 2: So hey, I think it's going to work.
Speaker 1: And that's the other thing is people are analyzing this,
Speaker 1: and people who know a lot more about tariffs than
Speaker 1: I do are analyzing this in kind of a traditional
Speaker 1: tariff sense of Okay, you know, what's the long term
Speaker 1: impact of terriffs that they're not in it in.
Speaker 2: A deal making sense, and a deal making.
Speaker 1: Sense whereby okay, what's the long term impact and so
Speaker 1: what is the price to everybody involved in that, and
Speaker 1: what kind of leverage does that then create four deals,
Speaker 1: some in the relatively short term. So yeah, what Democrats,
Speaker 1: I'll say it again only because it's a profound truth
Speaker 1: we all have to keep in mind during this period
Speaker 1: of pain. But but what Democrats are so terrified of
Speaker 1: is not the tariffs are going to fail, but the
Speaker 1: tariffs are going to work. So they have to spook
Speaker 1: Trump off the tariffs before they work, because the left
Speaker 1: knows once these tariffs work, the left is toast. I mean,
Speaker 1: they'll hang on in a few hardcore lefty type spots,
Speaker 1: but they know once these.
Speaker 2: Tariffs work and people see.
Speaker 1: You know, the tremendous thing that's going to come from
Speaker 1: you know, all of the benefits more manufacturing and home
Speaker 1: et cetera, who's going to have any interest these Democrats?
Speaker 1: And we know mathematically, and I don't mean to be redundant,
Speaker 1: but it's a number of people need to keep in
Speaker 1: mind once people start making seventy five grand or more
Speaker 1: strong majority vote Republicans. So that's what the Democrats are
Speaker 1: so freaked about, that these things are going to work.
Speaker 2: We have much more ahead in the show as well.
Speaker 1: Today we have sound from the legislature, actually elected Democrats
Speaker 1: comparing parents groups that have an interest in these transcendity
Speaker 1: issues to the KKK.
Speaker 2: We'll play that sound for you.
Speaker 1: We'll have the state legislator who is in that hearing,
Speaker 1: and then we'll talk about, you know, what does that
Speaker 1: mean for where Colorado's headed, the chances of the GOP, etc.
Speaker 2: You're on the Dankapla Show.
Speaker 5: And now back to the Dan Taplas Show podcast.
Speaker 2: Without some pain. I'd really like to get folks take
Speaker 2: on that.
Speaker 1: I'm sure there's something somewhere, but the universal truth, right
Speaker 1: is that almost every great property, almost every great breakthrough,
Speaker 1: almost every great healing act, fixing a major problem comes
Speaker 1: with some significant pain. I'd love to hear about the
Speaker 1: exceptions here is Senator rand Paul.
Speaker 3: Tariffs have also led to political decimation.
Speaker 6: When McKinley most famously put tariffs on in eighteen ninety,
Speaker 6: they lost fifty percent.
Speaker 2: Of their seats in the next selection.
Speaker 6: When Hot smoothly put on their tariff in their early
Speaker 6: nineteen thirties.
Speaker 2: And lost the House in the Senate for sixty years.
Speaker 6: So they're not only bad economically or they're bad politically.
Speaker 1: And listen, it's not just the Democrats. They're really prominent Republicans,
Speaker 1: some not a majority or close to it, really prominent
Speaker 1: Republicans very concerned about these tariffs. The difference is the Democrats,
Speaker 1: I think to a person, at least the ones we've
Speaker 1: talked about, want the economy to fail. The Republicans wanted
Speaker 1: to succeed. If you think there's a hole in that logic.
Speaker 1: As Prime says, you know where to find me three
Speaker 1: or three someone three eight, two, five, five The number
Speaker 1: texts DA in five, seven, seven through nine before I
Speaker 1: go to the phone lines, and we'll start in wheat Ridge, Colorado.
Speaker 2: One of my favorite texts in a long time.
Speaker 1: Dan, Maybe you should stop lying to your audience and
Speaker 1: tell them who pays tariffs.
Speaker 2: I'll wait for your answer. You're not worth calling, and it's.
Speaker 1: Disgusting how you're covering Trump's tariff's stupidity. Every economist from
Speaker 1: left to right says it's an idiotic move. Well, the
Speaker 1: reason this guy's not calling is because he knows that
Speaker 1: he would get decimated in a conversation. As polite and
Speaker 1: as nice and respectful as I am, he would lose.
Speaker 1: And it's not because of me. It's just because of
Speaker 1: the facts. But here's what I'm curious about. You're not
Speaker 1: worth calling, but I'm worth texting.
Speaker 2: Huh.
Speaker 1: That's kind of interesting because more people these days just
Speaker 1: prefer to text. I guess to right is to think,
Speaker 1: and everybody's busy. But think about how little he thinks
Speaker 1: of you. You should stop lying to your audience. Tell
Speaker 1: them who pays tariffs. Well, there's no question about who
Speaker 1: pays tariffs. Everybody knows who pays tariffs, and obviously I've
Speaker 1: never said anything to the contrary. That's why we've spent
Speaker 1: the last two days talking about pain and talking about
Speaker 1: the pain that we're willing to endure to save this country,
Speaker 1: to advance this country. We wouldn't be talking about the
Speaker 1: pain if we all didn't understand that these tariffs cost
Speaker 1: us short term because we're going to be paying more
Speaker 1: for imported goods. They cost us because our efforts to
Speaker 1: sell goods overseas are going to then run into higher tariffs.
Speaker 2: We all get that.
Speaker 1: But my question to this individual, and it's the reason
Speaker 1: I think she didn't call, is because, Okay, well, who
Speaker 1: pays for.
Speaker 2: What sickens America right now?
Speaker 1: Who pays for these big structural problems we have in
Speaker 1: America right now that's heading this country toward a cliff economically?
Speaker 2: Who pays for that? What about that pain?
Speaker 1: Just because you have a sugar high before you have
Speaker 1: an absolutely hillacious, enduring amount of pain, doesn't mean that
Speaker 1: pain's any less. In fact, that pain's going to be more.
Speaker 1: But nobody wants to talk about that pain. They just
Speaker 1: want to talk about the pain that Trump is causing
Speaker 1: right now. By trying to heal these problems, heal what
Speaker 1: ails us which could potentially be fatal three or three
Speaker 1: someone three eight two five five text d A N
Speaker 1: five seven seven three nine. Let's go to beautiful weak Ridge, Colorado. Craig,
Speaker 1: you're on the Dame Kaplis, sh'll welcome.
Speaker 7: Hey, Dan.
Speaker 3: I want to preface what I'm about to say by
Speaker 3: saying that I voted. I've voted for Trump in the
Speaker 3: past three elections, but I don't what there will not
Speaker 3: be the next one. He's not going to get a
Speaker 3: third term.
Speaker 2: But let me finish, Okay, he is.
Speaker 3: I agree with his policy that we need to get
Speaker 3: manufacturing back in the United States first of all, but
Speaker 3: tariffs is trying to kind of force the hand nowt
Speaker 3: For example, in his speech yesterday, he targeted Japan. And
Speaker 3: the facts are that Japan ninety ninety five percent opinion
Speaker 3: on who you want to talk to of cars being
Speaker 3: driven in Japan are manufactured in Japan. Well that yeah,
Speaker 3: that's a tremendous trade imbalance. And we do buy a
Speaker 3: lot of Japanese cars in the United States.
Speaker 2: Some of those.
Speaker 3: Companies have manufacturing plants in the United States which employ
Speaker 3: United States workers. But why do you target Japan with
Speaker 3: tariffs when the reason people in Japan do not buy
Speaker 3: American cars is because the quality they have a perceived
Speaker 3: opinion of the quality of their cars are better than
Speaker 3: American cars. Big SUVs, pickups do not fit on Japanese
Speaker 3: narrow roads.
Speaker 2: Get bigger roads.
Speaker 3: Well, okay, you cannot expand.
Speaker 1: Roads, Craig, I was joking. I was joking, my friend.
Speaker 1: Here's my core question too. I'm not dismissing anything you
Speaker 1: have to say. I'm the first one to say I'm
Speaker 1: no expert on tariffs. I'm also the first one to
Speaker 1: say I trust Trump. I trust his view of the economy,
Speaker 1: I trust his economic impulses. I trust that he's not
Speaker 1: self destructive. So are you sitting there believing that he
Speaker 1: just threw a dart at the wall in the West
Speaker 1: wing and came up with that number for Japan, or
Speaker 1: that he has some rationale, some rationale that you may
Speaker 1: well disagree with, but I trust that he has a rationale.
Speaker 3: Well, the American percentage of cars being driven in Japan
Speaker 3: is one percent. Has I'm just specifically we probably import
Speaker 3: more Japanese automobiles than we do anything from Japan. That's
Speaker 3: probably the biggest when you want to talk about the
Speaker 3: total number of the deficits between what is purchased from
Speaker 3: the United States and Japan and vice versa, the biggest
Speaker 3: portion of that money is probably in the automotive industry. Now,
Speaker 3: if they're only buying one percent of our automobiles and
Speaker 3: they're buying four percent from German or European car makers,
Speaker 3: you can't Consumers will buy. They will spend their money
Speaker 3: where they want to spend their money, where they precede
Speaker 3: the quality to be the best. Force and putting tariffs
Speaker 3: on automobiles is trying to force Americans to buy American
Speaker 3: cars maybe when they don't want to. Maybe they want
Speaker 3: to buy a Japanese car because they precede the quality
Speaker 3: to be better, whether it be a Toyota, Honda, Accurate, whatever.
Speaker 1: Well eight, I have no question that that is true
Speaker 1: for some American buyers, no question whatsoever. And I respect
Speaker 1: their free choice, their ability to make that choice.
Speaker 5: You're listening to the Dan Kaplis Show podcast.
Speaker 6: In a historic Executive order instituting reciprocal tariffs on countries
Speaker 6: throughout the world.
Speaker 2: Reciprocal. That means they do it to us and we
Speaker 2: do it to them.
Speaker 6: Very simple. Can't get any simpler than that. This is
Speaker 6: one of the most important days, in my opinion, in
Speaker 6: American history. It's our declaration of economic independence. For years,
Speaker 6: hard working American citizens were forced to sit on the
Speaker 6: sidelines as other nations got rich and powerful, much of
Speaker 6: it at our expense. But now it's our turn to
Speaker 6: prosper and in so doing, use treaty and trillions of
Speaker 6: dollars to reduce our taxes and pay down our national debt.
Speaker 2: And it'll all happen very quickly.
Speaker 6: With today's action, we are finally going to be able
Speaker 6: to make America great again, greater than ever before.
Speaker 1: And I want to play some more of the sound
Speaker 1: of Trump's explanation, because you don't get much of that
Speaker 1: out there, right. I mean, most of the mainstream media
Speaker 1: is an extension of the Democratic Party, and you're getting
Speaker 1: the hysteria and you're getting their cheerleading for calamity, right,
Speaker 1: because obviously the left wants the economy to crash. They're
Speaker 1: going to be sorely disappointed. But tying into this related
Speaker 1: issue is Tesla and the terrorist attacks on Tesla, and
Speaker 1: George Brockler, the DA and the twenty third will join
Speaker 1: us at five point thirty six to talk about what
Speaker 1: those penalties should look like criminally. I also I'm intrigued
Speaker 1: by a civil lawsuit that was just filed for a
Speaker 1: very large amount of money against a Tesla terrorist, and
Speaker 1: so I want to look at some.
Speaker 2: Of the civil possibilities as well.
Speaker 1: But that got me into talk talking about Okay, I'm
Speaker 1: starting to think about getting a cyber truck just to
Speaker 1: make a statement, just to stand up against the terrorist.
Speaker 1: And so as I thought about that, I thought, you know,
Speaker 1: I don't like any of their colors. It's not a
Speaker 1: very good looking car to begin with. I don't like
Speaker 1: any of the colors. So I started to research online
Speaker 1: and there's some really cool wraps out there where they
Speaker 1: wrap a vehicle. So we've been talking about that, and
Speaker 1: then I got this nice text from a company. Get
Speaker 1: Doug with Quantum Raps in Canyon City. Looking at the website,
Speaker 1: I mean, some of the stuff I saw on the
Speaker 1: website should be in the loof.
Speaker 2: It's just a work of art.
Speaker 1: So I thought we'd do a quick pop with Doug
Speaker 1: just to get a feel for what's possible and what
Speaker 1: this stuff costs. Hey, Doug, welcome to the Dan Kapla Show.
Speaker 7: Oh, thank you, Dan. How are you doing well.
Speaker 1: I'm doing great and appreciate the time. I'm really excited
Speaker 1: about this REP possibility but know nothing about it.
Speaker 2: So first tell folks a little bit about your business.
Speaker 1: But then also everybody's question is what does it cost
Speaker 1: to say rep an s U V REP, A pick
Speaker 1: up REP A car?
Speaker 7: Okay, yeah, I can explain. Some of that business is
Speaker 7: basically graphic design marketing type of products. We do vehicle wraps,
Speaker 7: we do science banners, web design, graphic design pretty much
Speaker 7: one stop shop, but we do we do a lot
Speaker 7: of vehicle wraps. We there's a lot of box with
Speaker 7: a vehicle wrap. Either do a color change that's just
Speaker 7: simply changing the color of your vehicle. There's a lot
Speaker 7: of options to look to that are available. Then we
Speaker 7: also do full print. That's a we can do custom design.
Speaker 7: We can do this personal uh personal use of businesses
Speaker 7: and uh yeah, it's just a great way to h
Speaker 7: give your vehicle a new and feel or hope if
Speaker 7: you don't like the color change that and it also
Speaker 7: helps save your paints.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and then how much would it call, let's say
Speaker 1: a cyber truck, because I know this stuff is not cheap,
Speaker 1: but a cyber truck, what would something like that cost truck?
Speaker 7: If I'm looking around forty two forty four dollars depending
Speaker 7: on the vinyl dig.
Speaker 1: You sures, Which gets me to my next question. Doug
Speaker 1: from Quantum Wraps in Canyon City kind of enough to
Speaker 1: be with us.
Speaker 2: How durable is it?
Speaker 1: Because you know, remember when matt was real popular on vehicles,
Speaker 1: but then I heard that, you know, if you got
Speaker 1: to scratch on one door, you had to repaint the
Speaker 1: whole thing. I don't know if that's true. But with wrap,
Speaker 1: how does that work? How durable is it? And if
Speaker 1: something gets scratched, what's the fix?
Speaker 7: Okay, yeah, it's pretty durable. It's you know, you treat
Speaker 7: it just like paint, to just like paint it. It's
Speaker 7: may say it's tenure vinyl. However, their warranty on something
Speaker 7: like that is generally about three years on vertical in
Speaker 7: two years on horizontal. We always do the horizontal areas
Speaker 7: roofs and hoods twice. That extends the life on that.
Speaker 7: And of course if you keep your vehicle in the garage.
Speaker 7: It's going to last be less well. I hate safe forever,
Speaker 7: but a really long time. And you know, if you
Speaker 7: do get a scratch on it, say somebody wants to
Speaker 7: try to key your tesla, we can easily just replace
Speaker 7: that panel. You don't have to print, you know, we
Speaker 7: wouldn't have to replace the entire vehicle.
Speaker 2: Would it's still match or would the rest have faded
Speaker 2: at that point?
Speaker 7: Generally it's still match, yes.
Speaker 1: Because I am planning on it, Doug, if I do
Speaker 1: get this cyber truck, and there are very delicate negotiations
Speaker 1: going on at home right now with this.
Speaker 2: But if I do get the cyber.
Speaker 1: Truck, I am counting on it getting keyed, probably multiple times.
Speaker 1: But again, the reason I'd get it would be to
Speaker 1: stand up to these terrorists. But I've seen some amazing
Speaker 1: designs on your website, I mean truly beautiful art. I
Speaker 1: saw one where you've had cheap and you have kind
Speaker 1: of a faded American flag on the hood and then
Speaker 1: what looks like maybe the Declaration of Independence on the side.
Speaker 2: Who does your art?
Speaker 7: I do, yeah, a graphic designer. Then in the business
Speaker 7: is eighty three and then myself that works in the
Speaker 7: business as well. I have a couple of Stollars at
Speaker 7: work Force. We're a family in business. So n Yeah,
Speaker 7: I've been doing graphic design for a long time and
Speaker 7: so pretty much anything you can envision and want to
Speaker 7: get point across, we can definitely work that and do
Speaker 7: a design that is going to get him to that end.
Speaker 7: And yeah, the way we do it is we'll do that,
Speaker 7: We'll do that cyber truck, and we'll send you, We'll
Speaker 7: send the customer what it's going to look like. I mean,
Speaker 7: it's going to be on a template. It will be
Speaker 7: exactly what you approve. And yeah, we can the world's
Speaker 7: your oyster. We can put anything on there you'd like.
Speaker 1: So you can put obviously pictures, right if I'm not
Speaker 1: like a picture of my wife and I could have that,
Speaker 1: but but would be great.
Speaker 7: Yeah, I can picture you and your life on like
Speaker 7: on the front of it maybe or something, and then
Speaker 7: in a minute going into a flag waving flag or something.
Speaker 2: I'd look at that.
Speaker 7: And then actually for your vehicle, I would use a
Speaker 7: thicker lamination, so that would be we're talking full print,
Speaker 7: so it's a full print and they try to key
Speaker 7: it we always have the print file on file and
Speaker 7: we can you know, we can reprint it or do whatever.
Speaker 7: And I have a hard time damaging in the vehicle
Speaker 7: with that wrap on it.
Speaker 1: I'm really excited about this, whether it's a cyber truck
Speaker 1: or something else. Just the opportunity to use the vehicle
Speaker 1: as as art and to create like that to me
Speaker 1: is really exciting.
Speaker 2: But would you give everybody your website?
Speaker 7: Yes, that would be quantum Wraps dot com just says
Speaker 7: it sounds and also a number there is if you
Speaker 7: don't mind it is no please, It's a five four three.
Speaker 2: Wrap, wonderful wrap. I Doug, thank you for being how
Speaker 2: with it.
Speaker 1: Love family businesses, love American businesses, love the creativity and
Speaker 1: appreciate you being on the show.
Speaker 7: Thank you, Dan, thank you so much for having me.
Speaker 7: I really appreciate it.
Speaker 1: Well, you take care And if I get this cyber truck,
Speaker 1: you are my first call. That that after maybe a counselor,
Speaker 1: but you.
Speaker 2: Are my first call.
Speaker 7: You'd be an honor to do your truck.
Speaker 1: Dan, thank you, my friend. Sure appreciate it. Do you
Speaker 1: take care? And Doug from Quantum Wraps in Canyon City.
Speaker 1: And if it's not the cyber truck. I want to
Speaker 1: do it with something else, and I really do want
Speaker 1: the cyber truck. But listen, I'm you know, I'm a
Speaker 1: very very lucky guy, met the right woman. We're over
Speaker 1: thirty years into a great marriage. If she feels that
Speaker 1: strongly about a cyber truck, I'm not going to force it.
Speaker 1: But I have not given up yet on persuasion. If
Speaker 1: not get or something some way to accomplish this. You're
Speaker 1: on the Dan Caplas.
Speaker 5: Show and now back to the Danaplas Show podcast.
Speaker 6: Too late any longer, and we're going to start being
Speaker 6: smart and we're going to start being very wealthy again.
Speaker 6: We're going to be wealthy as a country. Because they've
Speaker 6: taken so much of our wealth away from us. We're
Speaker 6: not going to let that happen. We truly can be
Speaker 6: very wealthy. We can be so much wealthier than any country.
Speaker 2: It's not even believable. But we're getting smart.
Speaker 6: Nearly a century later, in the face of unrelenting economic warfare,
Speaker 6: the United States can no longer continue with a policy
Speaker 6: of unilateral economic surrender. We cannot pay the deficits of
Speaker 6: Canada and Mexico and so many other countries. We used
Speaker 6: to do it, we can't do it anymore. We take
Speaker 6: care of countries all over the world. We pay for
Speaker 6: their military, We pay for everything they have to pay.
Speaker 2: And then when you want.
Speaker 6: To cut back a little bit, they get upset that
Speaker 6: you're not taking care of them any longer. But we
Speaker 6: have to take care of our people, and we're going
Speaker 6: to take care of our people first. And I'm sorry
Speaker 6: to say that.
Speaker 7: I see.
Speaker 1: It's so important to be playing this Trump sound today
Speaker 1: because there's not much of it out there right I mean,
Speaker 1: most of the media extension the Democratic Party Democratic Party
Speaker 1: wants an economic crash right now, or at the very least,
Speaker 1: they want Trump's approval to fall so he has less
Speaker 1: sway in the House and Senate. But wait a second,
Speaker 1: this guy's had a lot of success economically and including
Speaker 1: in his first term.
Speaker 2: So isn't it worth at least thinking about this. I
Speaker 2: sure do.
Speaker 6: And you're going to be very happy, and you're going
Speaker 6: to be very safe. We're going to build our future
Speaker 6: with American hands, with American heart, American steel, and we're
Speaker 6: going to build it with American pride like we used to.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and so critical right to national security as well,
Speaker 1: I mean, we can't become a nation that isn't making
Speaker 1: stuff anymore.
Speaker 2: I know we'll always make something, but you know what.
Speaker 1: I mean, isn't making a lot of stuff, isn't making
Speaker 1: the stuff that we depend on for our national security.
Speaker 1: So yeah, America is broken economically in some really significant ways.
Speaker 1: So I admire that he's trying to do something bold
Speaker 1: to fix it. And I have a lot more confidence
Speaker 1: than most that it's going to work. Not because I'm
Speaker 1: an expert on tariffs, not at all, but but I
Speaker 1: do think I understand Trump, and I do think I understand,
Speaker 1: you know that his commitment to America, to working people.
Speaker 1: I think I understand his commitment to winning, his commitment
Speaker 1: to going down as one of the greatest presidents in
Speaker 1: American history. I don't think he's going down this road
Speaker 1: unless he thinks.
Speaker 2: That he's going to win and win big.
Speaker 1: The country's going to win and win big, and workers
Speaker 1: are going to win and win big. Three or three
Speaker 1: someone three eight two five five takes d a n
Speaker 1: five seven seven three nine thanks to Doug from Quantum

Speaker 1: wrap it with Dan capitlis Law and write the car
Speaker 1: off as a business expense. Thank you, c give texture.
Speaker 1: I would never do that, but thank you for the thought.
Speaker 1: Talking about a cyber truck, I want to stand up
Speaker 1: to the Tesla terrorists not committing to getting it yet
Speaker 1: because of some ongoing negotiations on the home front. Dan,
Speaker 1: can he rep you Tody Box for work track? Absolutely, Jason,
Speaker 1: go to the website Quantum. I was looking at their
Speaker 1: website and they do all sorts of stuff like that.
Speaker 1: Haven't used them before because I've never wrapped anything before.
Speaker 8: Have you, Ryan?
Speaker 2: Have you wrapped a vehicle before?
Speaker 5: No, that's not really something I think about.
Speaker 9: But in the spirit of what you're attempting to do,
Speaker 9: I think it's an awesome idea.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, and so many creative possibilities for any kind
Speaker 1: of vehicle. Dean and ourvad will start with you. You're

Speaker 1: swears or something. That's why, particularly if you have Democrats
Speaker 1: on because he's see where now the big thing is
Speaker 1: for all these Democrat office holders to curse.
Speaker 9: But well, go ahead, hold on, Kelly's resetting him and
Speaker 9: there's the deal. We're really disappointed, indeed, Kelly and me,
Speaker 9: because he's a veteran call he is he shouldn't all
Speaker 9: the new colors out there. Yeah, there is a seven
Speaker 9: second to lay to dance point. Turn your radios down
Speaker 9: and listen only through your phone.
Speaker 2: And if you.
Speaker 1: Guys noticed that you're watching a game now maybe and
Speaker 1: depending which cable or streaming system you're on, it can

Speaker 2: Chris and Denver, welcome to the show.
Speaker 10: Hey Dan, this is Chris Wonder for me.
Speaker 2: I can't thank you.
Speaker 8: Yeah, sir, I was hearing your thing on the wraps. Yeah,
Speaker 8: you don't have to go out of town to do that.
Speaker 8: There's a guy here in town called Sam Lopez on
Speaker 8: the Hampden Avenue and does a marvelous job, does exotic
Speaker 8: car wraps and ceramic codings and all that sort of stuff,
Speaker 8: so you don't need to cook down out of town
Speaker 8: to get it done.
Speaker 10: It's called gorilla raps.
Speaker 1: Gorilla you know, I've heard of them. I love going
Speaker 1: to Canyon City as long as I can leave, but
Speaker 1: Gorilla wraps.
Speaker 7: No.
Speaker 2: I appreciate the call, my friend, because thank you.
Speaker 1: I went down there for an execution once. Oh yeah yeah,

Speaker 2: Really made me fat.
Speaker 1: Your own execution obviously, yes, yes, no, very intuitive, no,
Speaker 1: but it yeah. No, And and thank you to Chris
Speaker 1: for that, because I got to tell you. The more
Speaker 1: I study this rapping thing with a w these are
Speaker 1: real artists and the work they do.
Speaker 2: Remember that commercial, what was it? Whitch Beer Madero?
Speaker 1: Witch Beer did the commercial featuring the guy who did
Speaker 1: the custom cars and the Jack dumbdellas Mello Medello.
Speaker 2: Thank you.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you can tell how much beer I drink and
Speaker 1: more whiskey than beer, but not much of that either.
Speaker 8: Yeah.
Speaker 1: So it's just amazing these artists out there and they
Speaker 1: turn it into performance art and you think about to
Speaker 1: creative possibilities, which I'm getting really psyched about. I mean,
Speaker 1: whether it's cyber truck or something else. I really want
Speaker 1: to wrap something. Let's go back to Dean see if
Speaker 1: he's pulled it together. You're on the Dan Kaplas Show.
Speaker 2: Welcome Dean.
Speaker 4: Yeah, Hey, hey Dan, that was crazy. This is iHeart
Speaker 4: and then I called you and never overlapping each other.
Speaker 10: I've never seen.
Speaker 4: Wow, here's a good bad dream today.
Speaker 10: Yeah, I know today.
Speaker 4: I was listening to Hanity before you and they had
Speaker 4: Shumers from.
Speaker 10: Like seven years ago. They had Pelosi on there as well,
Speaker 10: and they were all.
Speaker 4: For tariffs before and now they're like, you know, they've
Speaker 4: just flip flopped because Trump's idea. And the second thing
Speaker 4: I want to mention is I don't understand why everybody's
Speaker 4: opposed to reciprocal tariffs. I mean, it's one for one.
Speaker 10: What is the issue with that? Because no one seems
Speaker 10: to explain.
Speaker 4: Why that's the problem.
Speaker 1: Well, the concern is that Americans are going to be
Speaker 1: paying more for a lot of different products. That's the concern.
Speaker 1: And so Democrats they just want the economy to crash, right,
Speaker 1: But you have some respective Republicans really worried about these
Speaker 1: tariffs because they think it's going to raise prices and
Speaker 1: it will. They think it's going to raise prices without
Speaker 1: any big obvious benefits soon and that the GOP will
Speaker 1: get wiped out.
Speaker 10: In the mid TEMs.
Speaker 4: Yeah, Charles saying on a sliding scale, he's gonna just
Speaker 4: as needed. I'm pretty sure that he's not going to
Speaker 4: just goar horror and just ruing the economy.
Speaker 1: Bro, I'm with you, you, thank you, I'm with you
Speaker 1: one thousand percent. That's why he's a guy. I don't
Speaker 1: claim to be an expert on tariffs. I just come
Speaker 1: back to I think I'm an expert on Trump. And
Speaker 1: and Trump is a smart guy who wants to win
Speaker 1: as much as anybody who is ever born. And he
Speaker 1: is not doing this and unless he has a plan
Speaker 1: and great confidence in that plan.
Speaker 2: And I don't think the plan is Okay.
Speaker 1: We're going to impose tariffs for ten years and then
Speaker 1: five years we'll start.
Speaker 2: To see some benefit. I think he's done the.
Speaker 1: Calculation that once the world takes them seriously, will really
Speaker 1: going and down this road, because you know, what the
Speaker 1: hell do I have to lose that he's going to
Speaker 1: have the leverage he needs to get a lot of
Speaker 1: good deals done.
Speaker 2: I think that is the play. Hey, we'll keep talking
Speaker 2: about that.
Speaker 1: Representative Jarvis Caldwell, a Republican from Colorado with some interesting
Speaker 1: sound
