[00:00:00.000 –> 00:00:26.000] I was looking earlier and like when’s the last time we did the podcast it was two years ago? September of 2021. A lot’s changed since then. Yeah, that was in the height of the madness.
[00:00:26.000 –> 00:00:31.000] Yes. Yes. We still have the goat as the president, Joseph,
[00:00:31.000 –> 00:00:34.000] which is doing a really good job. He’s amazing.
[00:00:36.000 –> 00:00:40.000] Yeah, it’s amazing. Amazing that they still keep rolling them out there.
[00:00:40.000 –> 00:00:41.000] Yeah.
[00:00:41.000 –> 00:00:48.359] Do you think, I mean, there’s still a solid year left. I can’t imagine he’s actually
[00:00:48.359 –> 00:00:53.759] going to make it to the 2024 elections. I just don’t believe it. You know what was kind of
[00:00:53.759 –> 00:00:59.920] weird what I saw the other day on Twitter? I saw an ad from Newsom for campaigns. So
[00:00:59.920 –> 00:01:03.679] I’m like, what are you doing? What’s the outcome of you raising money right now? It’s not like
[00:01:03.679 –> 00:01:05.519] you’re running for governor or you need to you raising money right now? It’s not like you’re running for governor,
[00:01:05.519 –> 00:01:06.959] or you need to start raising money now.
[00:01:06.959 –> 00:01:08.120] So what’s this all about?
[00:01:08.120 –> 00:01:12.519] So that clip, the ad I saw for two days of Newsome,
[00:01:12.519 –> 00:01:16.519] that kind of made me think, I remember four years ago,
[00:01:16.519 –> 00:01:17.599] I don’t know if you remember this event,
[00:01:17.599 –> 00:01:22.319] it’s four years ago, and Joe Biden’s not on Instagram at all.
[00:01:22.319 –> 00:01:24.840] So he’s not on Instagram, he’s not doing anything.
[00:01:24.840 –> 00:01:26.180] All of a sudden, Joe Biden, he’s on Joe Biden’s not on Instagram at all. So he’s not on Instagram. He’s not doing anything all of a sudden every
[00:01:26.180 –> 00:01:33.000] Joe, you know, Joseph Biden. He’s on Joe Biden’s on Instagram and I put a comment first comment. All this means is he’s running
[00:01:33.000 –> 00:01:39.079] Okay, this is pre him announcing that he’s gonna run and I’m bone because what’s Joe Biden gonna do on Instagram?
[00:01:39.079 –> 00:01:41.079] You know put a picture of who is you know
[00:01:41.239 –> 00:01:46.560] What he’s doing pictures with hunter pictures with his seven granddoll, you know, you’re not you’re not gonna know what he’s gonna put up there, right?
[00:01:47.280 –> 00:01:52.079] So when you see signs with Newsom doing that, there’s something there, you know, with
[00:01:53.439 –> 00:01:57.200] whether these guys are planning for taking them out. I had Chris Como on the podcast a couple
[00:01:57.200 –> 00:02:01.120] weeks ago. And one of the things I remember during COVID, I don’t know if you remember,
[00:02:01.120 –> 00:02:06.560] it’s every day we would see Andrew Como every then the conversation was, this guy’s going to be the next president. Look how presidential
[00:02:06.560 –> 00:02:12.080] he is. You know, the vast difference between two guys from New York, one acts presidential.
[00:02:12.080 –> 00:02:17.560] The other one doesn’t. If Andrew ran today, he would be the president and every day, you
[00:02:17.560 –> 00:02:22.319] know, we go on Facebook, he’s doing his thing. He’s eating. And then, okay, maybe this guy’s
[00:02:22.319 –> 00:02:27.439] going to do it and he’s on the show always with Chris and they’re doing their stuff and okay, maybe this is gonna happen.
[00:02:27.439 –> 00:02:34.560] And then all of a sudden, his own party chose to eliminate him because he couldn’t be controlled.
[00:02:34.560 –> 00:02:39.759] So the thing about the Democratic Party sometimes, it could be both sides.
[00:02:39.759 –> 00:02:46.000] I think if they choose to eliminate Biden, it’s going to be two, three, four stories on what
[00:02:46.000 –> 00:02:50.800] they’re going to say. He’s choosing to step away due to health. You know, my wife and I had a
[00:02:50.800 –> 00:02:56.719] conversation, Jill, we’re going to spend more time with the grandkids. And if he doesn’t do it,
[00:02:56.719 –> 00:02:59.599] then they’re going to come out and they’re going to say, listen, man, we got a lot of dirt on you,
[00:02:59.599 –> 00:03:04.240] bro. You got to kind of step away. If you want to protect your legacy or 81, we’re going to have
[00:03:04.240 –> 00:03:09.280] somebody else come in here. Notice Newsom’s been edifying you and propping you up and knew some trashes the Santas
[00:03:09.280 –> 00:03:10.879] And he’s edifying you
[00:03:10.879 –> 00:03:16.120] This is a way of new sum to come out if he thinks because I think new sum thought it’s gonna be him in the Santas
[00:03:16.120 –> 00:03:19.159] Because the Santas is camp maybe thought he’s gonna fall out
[00:03:19.240 –> 00:03:22.879] Trump’s gonna drop out and this new sums may be thinking about that as well
[00:03:24.120 –> 00:03:29.979] And then so new sums gonna come out and look, you know, the sentence is not loyal.
[00:03:29.979 –> 00:03:34.340] How do you trust a man that wasn’t loyal to the guy that helped him become a governor
[00:03:34.340 –> 00:03:35.340] without Trump?
[00:03:35.340 –> 00:03:36.479] The sentence would, I think he would say that.
[00:03:36.479 –> 00:03:37.479] I think he would say that.
[00:03:37.479 –> 00:03:41.639] And then he would say, but look how loyal noosome was to the very end to Biden.
[00:03:41.639 –> 00:03:45.759] I think that is a good storyline for them to redirect the world.
[00:03:45.759 –> 00:03:48.560] Now, listen, I’m purely speculating, but it is what it is.
[00:03:48.560 –> 00:03:51.240] I think there’s any value in being loyal to Biden,
[00:03:51.240 –> 00:03:53.800] especially as time comes on and more and more corruption
[00:03:53.800 –> 00:03:55.039] get exposed.
[00:03:55.039 –> 00:03:57.759] I do not think that there’s any value in that.
[00:03:57.759 –> 00:03:59.000] I don’t think they’re going to do that.
[00:03:59.000 –> 00:04:02.520] If I had a guess, Biden steps down
[00:04:02.520 –> 00:04:04.400] due to a variety of reasons.
[00:04:04.400 –> 00:04:08.039] Health reasons, age, you can’t do it anymore,
[00:04:08.039 –> 00:04:09.439] and then the corruption.
[00:04:09.439 –> 00:04:10.639] The massive amounts of crime,
[00:04:10.639 –> 00:04:13.439] it depends on how far the Republicans pursue this,
[00:04:13.439 –> 00:04:14.960] and how much traction they get,
[00:04:14.960 –> 00:04:17.519] but the massive amount of corruption that’s available.
[00:04:17.519 –> 00:04:20.319] I feel like if this was Trump that was in office
[00:04:20.319 –> 00:04:24.040] every single newspaper would be talking about it nonstop,
[00:04:24.040 –> 00:04:26.240] they’d be screaming for him to be removed from office.
[00:04:26.240 –> 00:04:27.639] I don’t disagree.
[00:04:27.639 –> 00:04:28.939] I don’t disagree.
[00:04:28.939 –> 00:04:31.680] How do they get away with it now when you’re hearing everybody
[00:04:31.680 –> 00:04:33.980] from the other say how they’re weaponizing the justice system
[00:04:33.980 –> 00:04:35.779] to eliminate a candidate?
[00:04:35.779 –> 00:04:38.379] I don’t know if you’re following what Vivek said yesterday.
[00:04:38.379 –> 00:04:41.519] He came out and says, look, I want to compete against Trump,
[00:04:41.519 –> 00:04:43.860] but not by using something like this and what they’re doing
[00:04:43.860 –> 00:04:45.560] on the other side.
[00:04:45.560 –> 00:04:51.319] All I’m saying is, if Newsom shows that he’s being respectful of Biden, because what is
[00:04:51.319 –> 00:04:54.399] your theory of why the sentence is not having momentum?
[00:04:54.399 –> 00:04:55.879] What do you think about when you think about the Trump?
[00:04:55.879 –> 00:04:57.879] He doesn’t have the personality.
[00:04:57.879 –> 00:05:00.319] I just don’t think he can compete with Trump.
[00:05:00.319 –> 00:05:03.720] Trump has just this cult behind him.
[00:05:03.720 –> 00:05:05.519] I mean, these people that love Trump,
[00:05:05.519 –> 00:05:06.920] that he’s their hero.
[00:05:06.920 –> 00:05:11.680] And the things that he says, the bombastic personality,
[00:05:11.680 –> 00:05:14.040] the way he can control a room,
[00:05:14.040 –> 00:05:19.040] the way he speaks in an arena of screaming fans,
[00:05:19.480 –> 00:05:23.480] and makes people laugh and says things that they wanna hear.
[00:05:23.480 –> 00:05:25.199] DeSantis can’t do that.
[00:05:25.199 –> 00:05:27.120] I mean, he did a great job with Florida
[00:05:27.120 –> 00:05:31.079] and people loved his position as a governor in Florida,
[00:05:31.079 –> 00:05:33.040] but I feel like he’s fucking that up.
[00:05:33.040 –> 00:05:34.199] You think he should have ran?
[00:05:34.199 –> 00:05:35.040] No.
[00:05:35.040 –> 00:05:36.399] Oh, so you don’t even think he should have ran?
[00:05:36.399 –> 00:05:38.040] I don’t think he can be Trump.
[00:05:38.040 –> 00:05:39.680] As long as Trump doesn’t get arrested,
[00:05:39.680 –> 00:05:42.959] he’s been indicted again.
[00:05:42.959 –> 00:05:44.759] And who knows where that goes,
[00:05:44.759 –> 00:05:47.959] but if Trump’s not in jail, he can’t beat him.
[00:05:47.959 –> 00:05:51.839] And the people that love Trump, they feel like this is a witch hunt.
[00:05:51.839 –> 00:05:55.120] And they feel like all the things he’s getting indicted for are bullshit anyway.
[00:05:55.120 –> 00:06:00.759] Not only does it not work, but it kind of hardens their position that he’s being targeted.
[00:06:00.759 –> 00:06:05.439] And these are the actions of a banana republic.
[00:06:05.439 –> 00:06:07.920] You take your political rival and you arrest him.
[00:06:07.920 –> 00:06:10.480] And specifically, you charge him with things
[00:06:10.480 –> 00:06:12.480] that you’re fucking guilty of.
[00:06:12.480 –> 00:06:16.800] Like the documents, like the classified documents,
[00:06:16.800 –> 00:06:19.319] Biden’s guilty of the exact same issue.
[00:06:19.319 –> 00:06:23.920] You gotta respect a level of deceptiveness
[00:06:23.920 –> 00:06:24.839] that’s been used.
[00:06:24.839 –> 00:06:26.600] I mean, look at what Hillary did,
[00:06:26.600 –> 00:06:30.540] going and saying, hey, it’s Russia, but it was really, you know, what she was doing,
[00:06:30.540 –> 00:06:35.540] and now they’re using a similar play as well. I don’t know. Did you ever, because I remember
[00:06:35.540 –> 00:06:40.699] when I was in, when we did, we were there at the show, was it in Jacksonville? You were
[00:06:40.699 –> 00:06:44.779] performing and it was UFC all of it combined to get. I think the Santas was there watching,
[00:06:44.779 –> 00:06:46.759] right? I think he came to the show
[00:06:46.759 –> 00:06:49.920] Did you and him ever talk about him getting on the show or no you guys?
[00:06:50.319 –> 00:06:55.160] I talked to him. I said hi to him. Okay, but you’ve never invited him to be on the show. Okay
[00:06:56.439 –> 00:07:01.519] Here’s what I’ll tell you from my experience with his camp, which is kind of weird for me. So
[00:07:09.279 –> 00:07:13.040] kind of weird for me. So everybody you speak to from Vvex camp, RFK’s camp, Trump’s camp, like this, they get back to you. Don’t just get back to you. Here’s what’s going on.
[00:07:13.040 –> 00:07:17.800] Here’s what we are. Every time you try to get ahold of anybody from the San Francisco
[00:07:17.800 –> 00:07:22.839] camp, good luck. And by the way, it doesn’t matter if it’s like, you know, we go and
[00:07:22.839 –> 00:07:25.000] we meet with them in in um, in, um,
[00:07:25.000 –> 00:07:29.680] uh, Tallahassee and I sit down and I meet him in his wife, Casey, rock star, Casey,
[00:07:29.680 –> 00:07:30.680] something else.
[00:07:30.680 –> 00:07:34.360] And the Santas is a genius when it comes onto policies and all that stuff.
[00:07:34.360 –> 00:07:39.920] But maybe not a marketer, whether it’s Christina, whether it’s this other guy calls me the other
[00:07:39.920 –> 00:07:42.040] day saying, Hey, they’re telling me you’re having a hard time getting a hold of us.
[00:07:42.040 –> 00:07:44.839] I said, no, no, we’re not having a hard time getting a hold of anybody.
[00:07:44.839 –> 00:07:49.000] You guys call, but you never call back afterwards about doing something together.
[00:07:49.000 –> 00:07:53.500] So then that gets me to think now all the interviews that he’s doing with people, the
[00:07:53.500 –> 00:07:57.480] first question everyone’s asking is, why do you think you’re rating solo?
[00:07:57.480 –> 00:07:59.079] Why do you think you had to do this?
[00:07:59.079 –> 00:08:00.079] Why do you think you had to do that?
[00:08:00.079 –> 00:08:04.560] I think their marketing mistake was big not coming out the gates early on and they’re
[00:08:04.560 –> 00:08:07.639] suffering the consequences because he has to know, answer the question he doesn’t
[00:08:07.639 –> 00:08:09.720] want to answer constantly.
[00:08:09.720 –> 00:08:14.079] So I don’t know, you know, then the other conversation is, is this guy ever going to
[00:08:14.079 –> 00:08:15.779] be able to be a president?
[00:08:15.779 –> 00:08:16.860] Is that ever going to happen?
[00:08:16.860 –> 00:08:19.639] Is he, you know, marketable enough to do that?
[00:08:19.639 –> 00:08:20.639] No one knows.
[00:08:20.639 –> 00:08:29.459] But I think their marketing team screwed up or imagine your handlers people that are your handlers. Okay, if they come if I go to your handler
[00:08:30.160 –> 00:08:35.720] And I say hey, here’s what we like to do something with Joe. Let’s just say you and I have never had any interaction together
[00:08:35.879 –> 00:08:37.879] I’d like to pitch Joe
[00:08:38.120 –> 00:08:44.039] XYZ show or do this. Okay, he says let me get back to you if they’re professionals
[00:08:44.039 –> 00:08:53.000] There’s one of two things that happens. One, he comes up to you. If he doesn’t get back to me, my interpretation is Joe’s not interested.
[00:08:53.000 –> 00:08:54.000] Right.
[00:08:54.000 –> 00:09:08.200] Or they forgot to follow up. Okay. Because they’re so busy. Let’s give them the benefit of the doubt that they forget to follow up. But if it happens three different camps, it’s not the team. You don’t want to do a lot of these tough long form interviews.
[00:09:08.200 –> 00:09:14.279] So I don’t know. This is going to be a very interesting election cycle to see what happened.
[00:09:14.279 –> 00:09:16.919] I don’t think a lot of people think Joe’s going to be there at the end.
[00:09:16.919 –> 00:09:20.240] Oh, so Kamala, what do they do with her? Oh my God.
[00:09:20.240 –> 00:09:28.080] If he steps down, what do they do with her? Do people demand that she runs? I think one person will lose their minds of Joe steps down.
[00:09:28.360 –> 00:09:31.960] One person would absolutely lose her shit.
[00:09:32.639 –> 00:09:34.159] You know, that is Hillary.
[00:09:34.679 –> 00:09:35.200] Yeah.
[00:09:35.480 –> 00:09:36.600] She’s not the first.
[00:09:37.320 –> 00:09:39.200] Kamala becomes the first president.
[00:09:39.200 –> 00:09:44.120] You know, if he steps down before, or if he finishes, I mean, that’s that’s
[00:09:44.120 –> 00:09:45.519] some crazy stuff right there.
[00:09:45.519 –> 00:09:49.879] Yeah, I just can’t imagine the United States wants President Kamala Harris.
[00:09:49.879 –> 00:09:52.159] I don’t think anybody wants that.
[00:09:52.159 –> 00:09:53.159] Nobody wants that.
[00:09:53.159 –> 00:09:59.440] I mean, maybe some people would prefer that over President Trump, but nobody wants that.
[00:09:59.440 –> 00:10:01.840] Nobody wants President Newsom either.
[00:10:01.840 –> 00:10:03.639] Nobody believes in that guy.
[00:10:03.639 –> 00:10:06.120] The guy’s a fucking con man.
