2017-01-19 | 🔗
Obama drops his last batch of nonsense on friendly reporters, Bernie Sanders says one of the dumbest things in history, and the Inauguration Mailbag!
This is an unofficial transcript meant for reference. Accuracy is not guaranteed.
According to any Davis, former special Council President Clinton and long time, democratic consultant, Obama will be considered. One of histories great President, what makes Obama so spectacular according to Davis, to be a great president, requires a combination of four factors: first, unique circumstances, making a major impact on the nations history like Washington and Jefferson, is framers and setting precedents for the presidency for future generations. Second successfully addressing one or more major national crises, Lincoln the civil war or after Yarmouth, World WAR tube, third having significant positive impact on economic and social changes or in foreign policy and forth in here seeing the powers and effectiveness of the presidency and the future of their political parties. Davis then goes ahead and ranks is tops. Your presidency says those are Washington, Jefferson, Jackson, Lincoln, Teddy and after many list Second, to your president's Monroe, Mckinley Wilson, Truman, Eisenhower, Kennedy, Johnson Reagan Clinton. So
whereas a Mamma stack up in all of this. According to Davis quote, there is little doubt that future historians will rank him high in this second tier. While we're about His accomplishments Obamacare Code, in the country out of an economic recession and his election as the first black president. That's the thing and that's pretty weak so here is whereupon they actually stack up on these four factors. First unique circumstances did faces of your economic downturn when he assumed office. That is, that rare in american history. According to twenty four seven Wall Street icon America, has had either depressions or recession in one thousand, seven hundred and ninety seven under Adam's one thousand, eight hundred and seven under Jefferson, one thousand eight hundred and fifteen to eighteen, twenty one under Madison and Monroe three thousand seven hundred Van Buren eighteen, five thousand seven hundred Buchanan, one thousand eight hundred and seventy three interbrand one thousand eight hundred and ninety three North Cleveland, one thousand nine hundred and seven under Teddy one thousand nine hundred and twenty twenty one under under Harding Depression under Hoover and after nineteen. Seventy three in the next and the Carter years. An early Reagan years, which leaves aside the stock market crash, is undertaken. The mild economic downturn under georgics, W Bush in the bursting of the internet bubble under Bill Clinton, so
isn't. Did he actually experienced downturn? It's what he did with that. He proceeded to lead. Obama did one of the worst recoveries in american history second successfully addressing one or more national crises. This is the second criteria. Davis gives hope, no credit for addressing the great recession. Although here cover was tepid at best, actually, the worse since the great depression average annual growth has been the weakest since nineteen forty nine had just two points percent growth per year, the expansion, has been long, but it's been seriously under productive under in foreign policy Obama has exacerbated NASH. Crises surrounding terror, presided over a massive increase in the number of terror attacks on american soil, is also presided over the collapse of race relations in the United States. When he took office, two out of three american style race relations were good, he leaves as with nearly two and three Americans thinking precisely the reverse. Third, a good price and has significant impact on domestic and foreign policy of biggest him.
That policy achievement Obamacare, has increased costs and premiums thrown Americans off their preferred insurance plans and separated them from their doctors. Although overburdening medical care providers and placing insurance companies under the financial gun, it will be feel dizziness Obama's gone his emigrate policy as millions of illegal immigrants adrift. His foreign policy has been a series of appeasement and blunders resulting in the, eyes of ISIS genocide in Syria, the unilateral surrender of Iraq, incompetent prosecution of the war in Afghanistan. The regional power and global legitimate nation of the iranian terror regime. The creation of a decrease a ship in Turkey, the empowerment of a dictatorship in Russia, the expansion chinese power he's weakened american allies all around the globe forth for factor. Dancing, the future of the presidency and his political party the presidency is more powerful now than it was under Obama's predecessors, but that's not Similarly, good measure of greatness since Toby hunting the power to Donald Trump and Obama. Devastated his political party he's lost nearly a thousand seeds across the country for his party, whose party controls just eighteen, governorship he's lost the Senate
as the house. He lost the White House, the Democrats or in the weakest position they occupied since nineteen twenty on the state level and no Brok. Obama doesn't just get extra credit that he black. So where does Obama said up historically, it's actually a rare that historians rank to term president's among the nations worse. The only tool, president often including that list is w, and that's largely due to the economic collapse of two thousand. Seventy thousand eight, if not for that, he probably somewhere in the middle, in all likelihood above all ranks slightly above Jimmy Carter, but below Richard Nixon historians will probably place him above George W, but well below Bill Clinton or even I'll be dragged. Her rank is rotten president, not the worst ever but certainly not among the best which is bidding and Obama was kind of forgettable use. He's a pray domestically is a disaster is a disastrous present in terms of foreign policy histories, not gonna. Try penetrating kindly he'll, fade into security rather than growling and historical prominence which actually probably his worst nightmare. I'm going
the bureau. This is the bench of Hiroshima, so many feelings. Ah, oh we finally leaving Donald Trump is becoming president, so much confusion, so much chaos. So much I meant so much to talk about the first. We have to thank our sponsor wink, so If all of this makes you want a drink if the olive, if you just look at the world getting boy, I could use a nice glass. Why are they really happy about? What's going on, really upset or really confused? Well, we can make them, happened for you with the best wine available on the morrow. Though the wonderful thing about link is what did you go to their their website over at winked out common w I and see: try, wink dot com, try W! I concede that comes bent and what's grey about them is that you go there and if you don't know anything about one you can type in, they have a little survey of kind. What hasty like what foods you like and then
I commend the wine to you. The wines are cheap. The lines are really really good. Everybody in the office has tried them, which is why the production quality has suffered on days. We have wine tastings here at the office because they all get drunk and their more useless than usual, but winked at com brings to you again: if you don't know what bottle and bring to a party or just looking for a bottle of wine with your dinner and you don't know anything about wine and you're.

Are you ready to lament the inauguration re ready to just drink? Try winked comes lash ban is the place to go.
A company w I see dot com, try, wink dot, com, slash and burn. Ok there. As I say, lots of feelings. First, just joy: the Brok anonymously like that is a wonderful wonderful thing, Barack Obama has been barnacle on me ass. If the United States for eight years he's been off these been just in abscess in terms of politics, for the entirety his term, and it is good, to see him leave. Very, very happy about that will go through his final press conference in safer every last minute of oxygen and upset. That does that Barack Obama can leverage First, I do have to note Brit Donald Trump today he's headed to Washington DC to prepare for the inauguration, which happens tomorrow. This time, too, Are you listening right now by this time tomorrow? Donald Trump will be not presidential, actually, president of the United States, in theirs pictures of him getting off. The military jet with malaria and saluting the troops is nice because If you feel like actually likes the troops, as opposed to the present we currently have in office. I will say this
if you're, watching Donald Trump, the guy from the apprentice become president of the United States, and you don't feel is a little bit and trepidation about that. It's because you're not watching closely enough not to talk a little bit later about what we can expect from Trump and what our hope should be and what we should actually look for from Donald. I will just say this in summary. Here is how I'm feeling about Donald Trump taking office tomorrow in one. Yeah, that's that's pretty much ads. I think that we can be as I like, the optimistic Lee skeptical we should we should be skeptical of every listen. I've been very sceptical. Skeptical bush and very I was very sceptical about I'm, be skeptical of trumpets skeptical of our politicians, because politicians are in the business of lying to you for money, that's what they do for a living. So if you trust Donald Trump, let me just recommend to you the down. Front is again a politician. He shifted his positions, alot hold his feet the firebug, To that end, just a second first, we have to celebrate because it's a date liberation today is Barack Obama's
final day in if, as you very very exciting, stop rock Obama has been disastrous. President of the United States, What's amazing is watching as Democrats for what the CNN ran a story, desperately hoping the Donald Trump would actually be assassinated, really because they have. But if you were assassinated in the rest of the cabinet, the trumpets picked worse, they have actually been voted on yet there's nobody in the cabinet. Yet, if you ask company assassinate pants, then right now, as it goes bummer remains still the president today's if he killed Trump and pence today, this is seriously what CNN reported here is what the CNN report look like and while affair stress, there's no specific, credible threat to this inauguration tonight, due to a working America's rules for succession Quest remain about just who would be in charge if an attack hit the incoming president vice present, and congressional leaders, just as the transfer of power or is under way here, have a very confusing line of succession their according to the constitution. If the president
and vice president are killed or incapacitated next in line is the house speaker, then the president protests Ray of the Senate. But what, if Something happened to them at the inauguration too. After that it goes down the list of cabinet secretaries, starting with sex, very of state. On the day of the inauguration. As a precaution, a cabinet secretary called the designated. Potential successor- will not attend the inauguration, ready just step and if something happens, but it won't be a Trump cabinet secretary. Since none of have been confirmed, yet it will be Obama appointing if data of Obama and Biden, were killed and then from in pencil well before the great ship you'd have to happen before the inauguration right of, if their basically saying well, you know could happen theoretically what if Trump and parents died and Obama and Biden died, John Kerry
become president every this is like this is insanities there. Now there now living in this crazy fantasy world, and let's face it- ok everyone's in some sort of his our fever dream here, because there is a story today, the Donald Trump at the inauguration, my dance with Caitlin gender gaps, gonna say I don't what the hell is going on. I don't know what happening. If that actually happens like us now became a fitting capstone, two thousand sixteen, when nothing made any sense in that work we're pretty much living inside gods, Burke right now but out, but let's just focus for his egg it, instead of getting into the Trump stuff, which is a lot of fun. Let's focus on something else by which has brought about a leading so about preparing to get out good, what the door here on the way out- and he gives press conference yesterday and the final pressure is just the press licking him- I mean it's just the press doing its best to. From that final, send off he's been waiting for, given that happy ending. So here is Rock Obama dealing with the press in spilling his usual nonsense. It says that he has talked about power. Republicans are undermining the legitimacy of the republic with there
concerns over voter fraud. Here's what Obama had to say about that. We are the only country in the mass world that makes it harder to vote rather than ease, and that dates back there there's a there's, an ugly history to them that we should not be shy about talking until area some time. My voting rights of those reasons that we are the only country among advanced democracies that makes it harder to vote, is Vice President Obama and his way out. He still I think he's, though, ripping on Jim Crow with ended in the nineteen sixties and in talking about voting rights, are being pain. She still cannot name a single instance in which a black person has been turned away from the poles are, he said, name a single instance of that across the country, so well. Blush of claims that voter fraud has never happened in will never happen without any evidence. They also claimed that there's an attempt. A market attempt to get black people start voting, which And has no evidence to support it, but here
done they are brok. Obama is asked me. Typically about Julian Assange, because yesterday he released Chelsea Manning the Wikipedia Strader in Tunisia, Naturally, massaging here was about his answer about Assange. I don't pay a lot of attention, both Mr Saunders tweets, so that wasn't a consideration in this instance- and I refer you to the Justice Department for any criminal investigations. Indictments extradition issues that may come up some paying attention to scientists to its, except for the fact that he thinks that Wikileaks affected the election and Julian Assange instead of Wikileaks. There's that as well about the also couldn't leave without risking on race and talking about Americans racially divided, it's more rationally divided them when he took office because he blew his opportunities. The first by president to bring everybody together instead using race baiting as a political tool and tactic his brow.
Obama on race relations as he leaves and by the way, is no longer a black and white issue alone. Hispanic folks, are you got asian folks here that this is not just the same old battles. We got this. This US do this, but one off people from everywhere. I gotta stop lots. People snobbery tasting distilled because I'm not gonna be there. Despite bestow, again he's now trying to make race relations more complicated on his way out, just as he has during his administration. He also defended his commutation, Chelsea Mellings prison sentence, his decision to free the the person who is responsible for leaking hundreds of thousands of classified documents to Wikileaks, which was did any endangerment of Americans american soldiers in american allies hears about The funding that yesterday, first of all, let us be clear
Chelsea Manning has served a tough prison sense. So the notion that, the average person who was thinking about disclosing vital classified information would think that it goes unpunished. I dont think would a bad impression from the sense that Chelsea Manning has served. It has been my view that, given she went to trial that due process was carried out that she took responsibility for her crime. But she received. Was there
it is proportional this proportionate relative to what other, leaders had received ok suing started there get the F out dude. When you're talking about Chelsea Manning having served this really really hard sentences of thirty five, your sends Chelsea Manning Serve. Seventy eight years and was good the hormone treatment by the federal government, because Chelsea Manning thinks he is woman, Barack Obama, then, Ray's Chelsea Manning anymore supposed to believe the debt doesn't send a signal to leakers that you're, basically gonna get away with it. Then the most laugh worthy line of all of this there was one Barack Obama starts talking to the press, because this is just this just Even if you don't speak your coffee listening to this line, it's only because you're not can coffee. Here's Obama you're not was to be sink. Advances must be sceptics. You're supposed to ask me tough questions, you're not supposed to complementary but you're supposed to two critical eye on folks cold enormous power, and make sure that we are
accountable to the for who sent us here and you have done it and you have done it. The most bar in ways that I could oppression, for fairness, even if I didn't know always agree with your conclusions and having You in this building has made this place work. Better The press is treated Obama with kid gloves the entirety of his presidency and oppression. In very, very kinds him. Even if these leaving all of these major outlets are putting our tributes to him picture, favorite pictures of Barack Obama National, my favorite picture, Barack obama- has yet to be taken as the one of him leaving, but it today They hear the pictures of him and his beautiful family, her other group, moments that you don't remember from Iraq. This presidency. Here's how sad we are Busby did this. They did a whole thing about how sad they were the Brok Obama's leaving, and then he says the press has just been really tough on him now. This is just an excuse for him to say that the pressure be tough on Trump and they will be
on trial, in fact I'll be crazy about from so this is a pretty naughty story from today and the wash story. Post, sunny, story about sunny, Purdue this story about sunny, pretty he's that the new pick for for agriculture secretary under Trump pay- and here is the headline the Washington Post runs any produce it former to term governor of Georgia. Here is the one from the Washington Post Club Trump pics, former Georgia, Governor Sunny Purdue, who once let up air for rain for agriculture secretary in its current twenty one here in nausea headline it's it's so the headline and here is, is that here he heard, as this is easy read them item trumpets, former Georgia, Governor Sunny Purdue, who once let a prayer for aid for agriculture secretary, not to terms where'd you governor? First, Georgia Looking governor two hundred thirty years, no, the guy who let a prayer for rain, because that's how much the press hates concern. That's hates Republicans, hates religious people that
the president, a treat trump but whether they treated Obama was just with kid gloves by labour he is quite discussing the did. The press does not understand why anyone would pray for rain. Every major religion has people had has times when you pray for weather events, that doesn't mean that you're gonna get them by the web. The left doesn't understand how prayer works, and so score in all of this, and that's one of them since my trump is going to be inaugurated as president tomorrow is specifically because of all of this, Barack Obama's leaving. I don't actually want to waste more time talk. I had all the way we cut a bunch of clips, and then I realize that I'm bored with him and I'm just excited to see him leave so he's actually really going, thank God, but the Democrats, I'm not gonna be going, and the Democrats are going to continue to push forward. A narrative tat really is counterproductive. Bernie Sanders, I think, led this one. Often them all, and then we'll have to break Bernie Sanders, let this one off he was questioning the term price, their health and human services Secretary Potential secretary, listen,
Bernie Sanders has to say. If this is the new democratic tack, it's no wonder they are losing elections in landslides across the country. The United States of America is the only major country on earth does not guarantee health care to all people as a right Canada. Does it every major country in Europe? Does it do you believe that health care is a right of all Americans, whether their rich or their poor? Should people, because they are Americans, be able to the doktor when they need to be able to go into a hospital because they are Americans is it Whitworth. Compassionate society know we're not a compassionate society in terms of our relationship, the poor and working people. Our record is worse than virtually any other country in Europe. We have the highest rate of childhood poverty of any of them:
your country on earth and half of our seeing older workers have nothing set aside for retirement, so I dont think compared to other countries. We are particularly compassionate, but my question is in Canada. In other countries, all people have the right to get. Healthcare do believe we should move in that direction, if you want to talk about others, help countries, health care systems. There are consequences to the decisions that they may just as there are consequences decision that we ve made. I believe- and I look forward to working with you to make sure that every single American as access the highest quality care and coverage that is possible as access to does not mean that they are guaranteed t help. I have access to buying a ten billion dollar home. I don't have the money to do that and that's why the wee wee wee believe it appropriate to put in place a system that gives every person the financial feasibility to be able to purchase the coverage one for themselves and for their family. We stuck in their own right. That's really telling here is where Bernie Sanders. We just lashes no? We are. Not a compassionate society show
look imagined enough to put me in the Senate for a thousand terms, even though I'm one thousand years old incompletely senile. I have never done anything useful in my entire life. Sure you, give me a pudding cup every so often and tell me to stand in the closet. Sure you do that but evil, not a compassionate society. Ok, let's let such utter nonsense. America is by far the most generous society on the face of the earth. Americans outdoor Nate, Britain and Canada, two hundred and twenty one nations like ITALY and Germany, two hundred and twenty one according to the Almanac of american philanthropy, everything income class except those earning less than twenty five thousand dollars more than half of the people net income class in the United States donated charity. That's happened, one percent. That Bernie Sanders loves to hate they have. Third of all charity, given in the United States, the wealthiest one point four percent of Americans are responsible for eighty. Six percent of all charitable donations made at death more I can give charity then vote for president of the United States. As far as are we can action society a merit is growing economy are our blockbuster economy has made the
old rich. Can we have sliced global extreme poverty in half in the last twenty, five years. Thanks to the american economy, we free people all over the world is sacrificed. American lives, hundreds of thousands of american lives to free Japan, France, Norway, Austria, Greece, Denmark, Korea, Germany, Poland, Hungary, Bulger, Bulgaria, Kuwait around Afghanistan. Germany itself Bernie, is by the way he spend their time, making friends of communists in Nicaragua, our poverty in the United States here, a few research from last year on poverty in United States new questions here head and shoulders, above them, If the world more than half of Americans were high income by the global standard, another thirty, two percent were upper middle income, the words almost nine intend, Americans had a standard of living, there was above the global middle income standard, have arguments, can, for they really hard offer they having a hard time, certainly not a global standards, but not even according to basics,
here. What you would consider super pour some ninety six percent of poor parents in the United States report. Their children will never hungry at any time in the prior year. Poor child in the United States is more likely to have cable tv, a computer or white screen plasma, tv and experts or tv in their home than to be hungry, poor, Europeans have more living space in their homes and the average non poor, Swede, Frenchmen or german according to the hair its foundation Andrew say that are open will they don't have savings? One of the reasons they don't have. A lot of savings is because they social security people, don't save, because they think social security is their savings plan. The fact is, according Andrew bags and Sylvester Schreiber in the Wall Street Journal, by the supposedly stingy Social Security programme and ineffective retirement savings vehicles, the average S. Retiree has an income equal to ninety two percent of the average american income Candle, our pacing, the scandinavian countries. Eighty one percent Germany, eighty five percent Belgium, seventy seven percent and many others- and by the way, that's more money, since our average income is actually behind.
Than the average income in those other countries, It is also worth noting again in social security to a huge chunk of our budget. But if this is the play, there the way that they're gonna campaign from here on in that Americans are stingy in terrible stingy in terrible. It's no wonder the Donald Trump is going to become president tomorrow Donald Trump should have an easy ride of it. If this is the direction in which democratic that's are going to move. Now we have to break here will have much more to discuss. I want to talk about what we can expect from the incoming Trump Administration, how we should the incoming Trump Administration plus we have the maid, bad coming as well?

We are there largest conservative podcasting in the United States. So in of Barack Obama, leaving in the face of Donald from taking office domain aren't a sheer state of panic, their monsieur state of panic and are getting more and more extreme, which is incredible because, sort of running out of extremities zero to two plum Joe Biden, the current vice president, the outgoing vice president of United States. Suddenly he has realised that the progressive international order is under attack, not because Obama's president, but because Trump one. But the greatest threat on this front bring from the distinct illiberal external actors who waiter success with fracturing liberal international order. Please put. Mr Putin has a different vision of the future. One in which Russia is
pursuing across the board, It seeks to return. To worry lines has realised that Russia is terrible, so they spent eight Pretending Russia's fine and ripping Mitt Romney for saying Russia was, was dangerous and now realized Russia's terrible just in time for Donald Trump, too, being chuck shimmers doing the same things are terrible from trying to read through his nominees. This way, how could Donald Trump try to ram through his nominees this way? Well, maybe it's because you're trying to hold up his anomalies in a relatively president away these past two weeks We have seen repeated efforts from the from transition Aden, aided and abetted by Senate Republicans to jam through nominees, in a way that hides their views from the american people. A senator and two members of the house were forced to wait until the end of this. Second day of Senator sessions hearing before they could be heard The Barroso is keeping the public out of this to prove its hearing. Making seven seats available in the whole hearing room senator
the crafts requests for outside witnesses for the post, your price manoeuvring and devise hearings were denied, Mr Ross is Oji paperwork was submitted. Just outlined, aiming paleness of their strategy, complain about how crazy trumpets, and then The final democratic strategy, of course, is to play the rays cards. Article nine held a guy who a couple of days ago said that all of these black folks mean Donald Trump adjust, mediocre, negroes he's now has There is some sort of conspiracy, Fox NEWS, user contributed Fox news for years and HEAT tells the story of how the pay streets were racist. A Fox news. Serious You can hardly but the vaccination. We stop there today, the audio equality and that great, but by basically mark
one. Who makes the case that when he was a fox news that would allow him and at a high level meetings, and they would send him to the black people floor for pastries. That's those basically his accusation, Michael, Thyssen, who was on with me on Fox NEWS a couple of minutes ago. He is also pushing this notion that a marrow those facing an upsurge in racism because there's a history of police terrorizing black people protect those three problem. Neutralizes many african people say live. We were introduced a terror long before nine, eleven, the vicious police forces, America that victimize us and wine, which, why supremacy operating a number of Valencia between having islamic extremists wanting to eradicate the american way of life to the police versus it is look at this Rudy Giuliani in debated imo, meet the press, it look. You people focus on
police killings of black people. When that's a small percentage of what happens over when you said you people, what did he say? Look most, he said, however, of the killings are done by black people against black people, one. Ninety four: ninety percent of black people were killed appeal by black people, but eighty four percent of white people were killed a cool, but why people based on, let's take a logic to the extreme here. If that's the case, how many people have died from terror in America in the last ten years? Not that I don't know, maybe it isn't. I waited for you it's late. It argues that police officers in the United States are equivalent to islamic terrorists there going continue to lose their going too. Continue to lose. So all of this, that the left is incomplete disarray and Barack Obama has been about big part of that. So thank you to President Obama for placing the left in the crosshairs of the american people. Thank you, too. A for demonstrating that the left cannot be trusted with power. Thank it for devastating your party down ballot. Thank you for taking them out of power in the Senate. Thank you for taking it out of power in the house. Thank you for taking it of power in the White House. Thank you. Brok, Obama, making America better placed by being such crappy president and being such a lacking human being
particularly when it comes to dividing Americans on the basis of reason. But this brings us to the second question, and the second question is again Donald Trump Madam president, how should we, feel about this. Now I already summarize my feelings, but I feel like now's, inappropriate time summarize my feelings again here again my feelings about what to do what happened, Donald from taking office yeah yeah for those you can't see its kind of west smiling and then realize something terrible so is it going to be something terrible or is it be something not terrible? We have no idea here is the really Anybody who pretends they know the trumps gonna be great, is full of crap. Anyway, returns. They know he's gonna be awful, is full of crap. We don't know. Nobody knows here is things that we do know. We know the Donald it is going to continue to be Donald Trump and that's good. And that's bad- that's, that's and that's my argument. Examples yesterday, Donald Trump used. Talking about the replacement for Mama Karen here's. What he had to say about his replacement for Obamacare
and we're gonna have you know we have to cover people who can afford it. And that's what I'm talking about and will be nobly, have blocked grants of Medicaid back into the states and will do things because there are people who can afford it and nobody's gonna be dying on the streets with the president. We want to take care of everything, Come on, you heard is worried how you're gonna pay for it. If you ensure everyone, will you watch many private insurance companies to take care of a lot of the people that can afford if it's gonna take a tremendous burden off and they're gonna be able that plans at a great plans as very important. Ok, so that's exactly Obamacare We can, of course, private insurance to take people who they don't want to take. I wouldn't give birth. Grants due to the states through medicate that that's exactly the Obamacare in exchanges. That's exactly what they are. So there are two ways to read this, and this is the thing about Europe you can read. This has prompted just saying something he doesn't noticed talking about any goes on tv and he says things and then the people who make policy are comprise the secretary
of health and human services, and so you look at his cabinet and say: he's made a lot of really good cabinet that Scott promoted the EPA Tom Price at Hs Betsy, devising an education, Rick Period, Department of Energy General Madison Dead, secretary of defence, lots of really good picks for from for president from dissolve religious attorney general just sessions, all of these very solid picks and if Donald Trump Just the guy who's gonna be Donald Trump on TV and on Twitter, and you can sort of ignore that, and the policy in the background gets made, then this could actually be. A really successful presidency can sell, just go out, he'll, say stop and he has his dumb answer the pulse of how a lot of Amerika you're feeling, so he'll say things, and meanwhile the policy that gets pursued is not made by Donald Trump. That's all case scenario, that's what was being argued by a lot of people. In the latter days of the election elect my Elect Donald Trump, get my pension, Paul Ryan. That sort of the argument he's not gonna, be the one in charge. It'll be his deputy who's in charge, but we don't know that again. All of this is up in the air, so Here's what we do know again. Donald Trump will be Trump that means it's gonna, say politically incorrect things. Occasionally that are really good, invaluable and piss off the media. It means going away.
At the media, when necessary, it means going to target his political enemies with alacrity. It also means going to attack the media when they don't deserve it, and attack is political enemies when they don't deserve it and he's gonna, say some stupid, really terrible things that are not political aims. I can just in being an ass, it means that he's gonna to say these things and Kelly and Conway's. They pretend you never said these things. It means that he's gonna slam companies to earn headlines means the stock market bounce around based on the stuff that he says it means our allies could be endangered right. There are a lot of things that could happen here that are bad because character map as the President of the United States, and it also means a lot of republicans- may go along with things they don't agree with just because hate its trump, he won populism, yea trumpets and populism is going to rain from his character as a constant, but we don't know what his governance will look like right. It could be great if we could get it. The Supreme Court, we could get cuts to regulation get replay, replacement, repeal of Obamacare tax reductions. We could get a military rebuild, but all of us depends on what. How is it to do? This is going to delegate to the people who know what you're talking about or was going
You like little Jack Warner shoving his thumb in the pie. Every time think something's mildly interesting physically. Shift is used as quickly as you did in all the years leading up to the election cycle on policy, is he gonNA is going to shift from big government? Small government is going to shift from anti immigration to pro immigration is going The White House has a family business run at top down, or is he actually going to treat it as just celebrity perks? You get to go on tv, a lot and say things and feel important, and then the peep actually make policy. Are the people who work for him, where's gonna, put it focus, is going to be on public. I too, am policymaking. There's a really good. Is that we should all hope he continues to tweet about Saturn alive live rather than trying to write the Obamacare replacement, though maybe we hope for all of that. But what happens That's not what happens if trumped societies the person in charge, because it turns out we elected, and he is the person in charge Then we don't have any idea what's coming, as his policies are all over the place, a lot his political allies like New Gingrich, they treat the fact that he has no governing philosophy as a sort of good thing. Well,
he's not gonna be bound to does those hidebound, archaic, fella if he's like conservatism in the constitution, he can do what we want is a populist, but that's not good, that's disquiet. When you're making policy based on what you think is popular that day, all you end up with a mishmash crappy policy is not a small government at advocate. We know that he believes in big government, doing big things, big infrastructure, project, building, big things, though having blowing the budget. Apparently budgeting since no matter anymore, he doesn't know much about constitution, any doesn't appear to care all that much about the constitution again. What does that mean for governance? And there is another- problem too, and that is this. While we can all hope for excellent policy, and I think we will get some excellent policy, I do if I had to predict how till we get some rest the policy, particularly particularly in the early days, the public purse. So does matter from the faces Publican party and repair. The greens have acquiesced in that. That means the stuff Arnold from says, that's gonna happen that's and how people think and how they feel even
doesn't really shape policy. Bravo, helped shape, how Americans think and feel, even though you really get a lot done politically in the last four years of his administration, because you pig, helped polarize us along racial lines, long sexual lines, gender lines. He help polarizes among religious lines and he did that using ready, not really policy will trot Now- has the bully hope it works mean for the social fund, whether the countries that a good thing or a bad thing, so here's how I think we should approach. This is what I in saying now for months and it's not gonna change when he's president of the United States, ok, and that is this. We should allow ourselves to be optimistic, just as we should allow ourselves to be optimistic. When anyone comes into office but particularly now, if you're republican, Republican House Republican Senate republican President. You should be absent think about the things that can get done. It's the greatest chance to make conservative policy in a generation, but we should remain skeptical. It is not our not my job, not your job to prop up Trump there's an arguments it to during election cycle. I and agree with it. There was job to life or tramper fit for drunk, because you'd help overcome Heller
I always said. Okay, if Trump wants me to support him, all he has to do is be good. Well, that is present at my rule has not changed. If you want support, all he has to do is governed well and act. Well and that's not. Too much to ask and what then for us is when he is right. We oughta praise him, as we ve been doing on the programme and when he is wrong, we criticise him in our job. To assuage is feelings or try to convince him counting him on the head, though, that he should be better, working with us, that's the job of Congress, people if they want to do that, routine, that that's what they can do, it's your job to speak the truth. It's my job to speak. The truth Yes, pathologies about, he doesn't like criticism, so he reacts by going the other way. When that system trace lack of character on his part, and it demonstrates that Publicans need to find new tactics form, but it doesn't change what you should do or what I should do as somebody whose job it is to tell the truth about politics. He serves you, you do not him he serves me. I do not hurt him. He is not my boss, he's not my father. He's a public servant.
Serves me and he serves you and what that means is that here always us his good governance. He owes us his improved character. He owes us his honor, that's what he owes us here. For this position. We elected him to this position. The american people dead and it means that now he owes us and he better hey his debts, you don't get to go bankrupt after you make a pledge to the american people trot may not have a governing philosophy, but we have to because its, job to hold accountable. Your job did not end November. Seventh, it didn't end that day your job, is continuing. My job is continuing, so here is real danger here. The real danger is the destruction of conservatism or truth or decency on the shores of pure partisan hackers, defending bad stupid things just because it some in your party. Doing it don't be that guy. By the same token, if your hi trump. If you're somebody didn't vote for Trump dont be the person who, because you're a hack give him credit when he does something right.
Things are true, or things are false, no matter who does them, you don't get it. Tromp and declare a truth or falsehood just because don't like Trump and by the same Ok, you don't get to do the reverse. You don't get to declare that something is false. The it is true that, as far as just because you like trump- What you owe the american people? What you yourself is honesty, Donald, oh you as it here and the constitution and adherence to a set of political ideals that make the country better that's what Donald from owes you and that's what you should hold him to o for some stuff. I like in time for some stuff, I hate so stuff. I, like my my personal trainers again in Derek Rank with him several times a week, really really nice guy, and he ask anyone amazing life story. Isn't his life story is that his father died before each fifty his brother I, before age, fifty his uncle died before eight fifty His grandfather died before aged fifty. Every mail and his family for two generations has died of a heart failure before age, fifty and so he's written this memoir. That is,
about what it was like to grow up in a family where the hidden only his father died, but also where there is this. This looming spectre of death over him at all time and its good fit spoke, it didn't work out book, it's good book about it. It's called when we were five and and it's all about it- it his story, obviously, but it's also a story about why it matters to be healthy, because he actually changed. Let structure he was gonna, be a stockbroker and went into her training because you decided it was more important, deliver his family. Then it was lots of money as a stockbroker. He just turn fifty a couple of years ago is the first mail and his family to hit the age of fifty in as I say it in three generations That's an amazing thing and it's a really interesting funny good book Derek raise one fighting check it out at Amazon COM, ok, other things that I like. I said the other day that we I'd. Seen Lala Land- and I mentioned in my dad- is a tremendous job pianist and I got some requests from people. If we hadn't tape of plain pianosa here, is my daddy's from like two three nights ago. Actually, here's my
playing the the piano here. Is here's he's playing some jazz?
this only sixty years old, Metson blades? It used lignite clubs these fourteen years old lady.
Is. Is it easy? He really was you a world class jazz. Pianist. That's what my dad's, when I say my dad's good, I mean my dad's good, ok time for some stuff that I hate here great ugly, so Lena Dunham has put out viewed along with an Jude line in a couple of other celebrities. They put out this tribute to plan peril. Its animated tribute to plan parenthood It is quite awful two hundred years of plan parenthood and we'll watch little bit of it, then critique it it all started with one woman
I nursed her back to health after horribly botched abortion. She just barely survived her body poisoned her fever spiking. Before leaving my care, she asked how to prevent more unintended pregnancies and the doktor male of course told her. You can avoid your husband matter. Back to get some sleep on the roof. Three months later, I gotta frantically from her husband. I arrive to find her beyond relief. She died TAT morning, leaving behind three little children
when I got home, I decided I wouldn't rest until I was able to give women the knowledge to control birth. A woman can be free, a woman is in free, greater, no woman can call herself free, does not own an control her body faster than when I thought of Margaret knew how to work ass. Saying oh Margaret saying it was you genesis? How should we will look back in history everything or she. She thought the birth control should be specifically directed Foresaw actually was the Bush and if you go back and you look at what Margaret Sanger had to say about abortion, Margaret saying or thought that abortion is a sin against man and God, she didn't actually the Bush and she was in favour of birth control because she thought the birth control would help avoid abortion wretched tat. The birth control would actually prevent abortion. She didn't like abortion. She thought that abortion is a ban, thing. So she want to teach you. She favoured birth control as opposed to abortion.
So this this Lena Dunham produced monstrosity ignores the fact that marketing or again did a lot of this because she wanted to help control the level of birth on the lower classes, which meant black people regime. He's explicitly talked about this Margaret saying or dead there? A bunch of celebrities? participated in the making of this thing is Judge Abrams. Nazi Jude loss are as Lena Dunham America, Ferriera men detailing Jennifer Lawrence, Gina Rodriguez, Amy, humor, Merrill, Streep Constance, among others, and they appear in the credits and the videos. The brakes Roby Way, which has led to over a million abortion in the it states in a bunch of celebrity voices telling stories of women two Sanger begging for help. Saying that they would rather die than become pregnant again just demonstrates They are. The priorities left lie that their highest honour is reserved for a lady who was a racist angiogenesis in and somebody who actually hated abortion, but there they just ignore that altogether again,
the priorities, are really really screwed up in. This is just another demonstration of that other things that I hate tonight There is a headline from the Washington Post about David Gorner. There talking David Gardner. Being a point into a scientific position in the by India in the trunk administration is from science adviser. Here's the headline David Gluten fear Silly anti intellectual computer scientist is being I'd for Trump Science adviser. That's not an editorial report Firstly, anti intellectual computer scientists. Now what would you imagine doubt entails be fiercely anti intellectual probably mean you're like a high school grad. You and you hate people were highly educated, dimming learner, The professor, a yell university, professor at Yale University he's a pioneer in the field of Paris, computation, just terrible just awful that he would be brought into science. Circles just airline and they say that he's fiercely anti intellectual. Why? Because you wrote a book academia, dismantling our culture,
and talks about intellectual ism, disintegrating patriotism. Ok, that's actually, pro intellectual because it is the foe. Intellectuals have destroyed our culture and destroyed. The perception of intellectual ISM among the among the general public in the United States, but again Media are wildly biased, other things that I hate apparently two thousand and seventeen is just a has killed two thousand and sixteen, and, as I saw somebody on twitter, two thousand and seventeen till two thousand and sixteen and is walking around wearing two thousand and sixteen and two thousand and seventeen skin and around these, his grandmother is dead. Tragedy strikes before nine year old guerrilla suffered a long term health from her These grandmother was euthanize. Miami do so another tragic strikes the her omby family, We can only. We can only pray that humanity survives the death of another member of the Huron bags The family, because the indicators are not good folks and for reading the chicken and trails or for reading the dead guerrillas. Then things gonna be rough this year, too,
ever since Romney's tat things had just been going downhill for the United States, and I hope this doesn't accelerate the trend, final thing that I hate no get the mail that artists are all protesting. The way decide protests in EU one right. People feel out of touch with the artistic community. Why? Maybe there? and high intellectual in the motive learner. Why? You think, maybe intellectuals in society are so stupid and so terrible and we should never listened, will. Probably it's because there, a bunch of their a bunch of artists who our trying to resist Donald Trump massage need is going to Huffington Post with extra, of my country, but they spelled out word differently Take your hands off my country, but they spell that word differently, because that is how they work and they release art. That's just Riddick was again we blow out the more obscene parts of this, but its president. Burma performing certain acts, its Donald Trump with them male anatomy, as his face its its pictures of a woman brushing another woman's private parts. I dont know
What this is supposed to do to actually fight tromp. Exactly especially that this one in the middle of this nature is nude woman with the bars across your chest. I mean, like his wife, was a nude photo model. I d no, if that's supposed daily, be a turn, offer him or what. But you wonder why there sort of a gap between the artistic community in the general american public. Maybe it's because you think resisting tromp, because you painted trouble woman pulling up her shirt and boyscout saluting it. Maybe it's because of that. Maybe that disconnected and helping your case Ok time for the mailbag. Let's do some male day the final pray mailbag next time you do the male banging Donald Trump Our President elect you will be the official president of the United States budgets, just while whoop he so here we go. Workers rights. Do you think race relations have a better chance of improving under president from them? They do under President Obama. Why PS love the show? No, no! I don't I think that Donald Trump is not likely
I think he may reach out because he thinks that is important to improve race relations. Birthing. President Obama has ways in the well for a good period of time. It's gonna take a while to recover from the I'll poisoning the Obama did he's made a lot of people in the in Amerika believe the police forces are inherently racist if Donald Trump defends the police he'll be labelled. Racist he's made a lot of you We feel that a white Americans are implicitly biased if Donald Trump opposes that he'll be seen as racist Obama has done severe significant, lasting damage beyond his own term. It's not trumps. All the race relations are gonna get worse. I must see, exacerbates none which he could mean he's fully capable of being ocean is own right, but it really is a bomb is fault, no matter who took off. Ass. It was going to worsen race relations in the country, because Obama had the greatest opportunity. Any american president has ever had to final finish healing the racial divide in United States and instead he ripped it wide open for his own political gain, Evan Rights high. But what is it hanging on the balance of power between the three branches government. Currently, I think the exam You'd have injudicious judicial branches of seriously overstepped their limits. What some
solutions you would propose so does exactly right. The executive branches wildly overstepped its limits, because congresses delegated enormous regulatory power to the executive branch, the judicial branches usurped power from both the executive branch and the legislative branch. The most important branch is the lead of legislative branch, its white article, one of the constitution, and all lawmaking power is vested in illegible ranch right now, huge amounts of lawmaking power is vested in the executive, as well as the judiciary, which is quite terrible. The only way to restore that truly is to elect better people too. People arrest people organization guard their power. It would also help if we a constitutional amendment outlawing regulate from the executive branch? We just get rid of the regulatory state altogether that politics constitute your or, as I say, I letting people in Congress. Defined regulatory agencies as very pointed today to see the repairing who wants
and he wanted to eliminate the Department of Energy, now says that he wants to keep it because he's the head of the Department of Energy, that's ridiculous. It should go all these extra departments needed need to be destroyed. I am The regulatory power needs to be taken out of the hands of the executive branch altogether. If Congress wants to make a lot of Congress, you make a lot, not unelected bureaucrats. Michael says: hey Ben. What are your thoughts about faith based drug rehab centers like teen challenge? I don't know about teen challenge, so I'm not going to speak specifically that butt face progress have centres. I have no problem with our college This has been the most successful tool in helping alcoholics overcome their addiction for literally hundred years and it is a faith based system. Jordan says with the port go experimenting of decriminalization all drugs be moderately successful is realising in regulating any or all drug sales, a viable way to help combat the power and wealth of gangs in cities. Chicago I'm not for using drugs just against the black market, so I'm pretty libertarian when it comes to drugs. There, certain drugs that cause externalities like pc p makes people while it that should be illegal. But if you're talking
drugs that you just taken makes you high, and you run your life. That's really your business as long as I'm not paying for it. The big problem of criminals. Asian of drugs? Is you have to ensure that the decriminalize price of drugs is below the street market price of drugs toward the problems given? California? Is you decriminalize marijuana, but the pricing? at the marijuana dispensaries still higher than black market marijuana. Two peoples, By on the black market, you haven't stride the black market. You just created a black market, it is in competition with real market in order did To really do this. It would work Ashura, decriminalization browsers, good case to be made Criminalization of drugs would actually work better. On the on the level of of hard core drugs that are more expensive rather than cheaper drugs, doubt actually be the the case in strong case the economic haste for decriminalization Mary, writing lashes. Socialism Bernie Sanders real socialism or inaction social welfare state, so Bernie Sanders is what he calls it democratic socialist. He doesn't believe state ownership of resources, but it's a really narrow gap analyze. He basically incremental
is that the government should heavily regulate every business and take an a near ownership stake in every business, regulated up the was you and then, when the markets fail, should nationalize such an incremental push towards socialism, rather than all at once, push towards socialism. He thinks that we should just go for scale private wealth, basically and redistributed more mode of Norway or Denmark, people to cite Norway and Denmark as these vastly successful state. The fact is that Denmark is basically gone bankrupt because of its authors. And now they're having to cut back on their budget plus the states is not any of those countries were far more diverse country, racially ethnically in terms of education. And beyond that, the United States, a farmer's dynamic economy, of course, than anything that Europe has to offer and more dynamic and Europe as a whole. Paul said: Hoddan Happy Blade birthday. I've been concern about something from from pressures last week in which fake news to centre stage he's claiming a foreign hotel revenue will be rolled into the Us Treasury to give money back to the people. How could this possible? the work: are we being funded petrol towers now what tax implication
What this incur? I have no idea how to Where can I haven't seen a lot of details on how exactly this would work, they turn over all of their profits. Do they turn over other financial records to the federal treasury? sign a Czech. Does the money go back, in the federal treasury deleted. So does that mean effectively owns the hotels not declared me how this works? Exactly Kyle says: hey love this. I have a question regarding life in referencing. The Bible is impossible to know something without having knowledge of its antithesis or would that be ignorant, for example, an ear, the only new good and did not know evil until they aid from the tree of knowledge? Can someone know without knowing evil. I guess I think someone can no good without knowing evil. I dont think that someone can. Evil without knowing good, so it so there are certain antithesis that you don't actually have to know. I can know that my marriage with my wife is great without having no one evil marriage looks like I can I can. No that that of my child, without knowing what it's like to hate my child, but I dont know You can no bad without knowing good, and this
why is important? We educate children to the good because then otherwise than going to know when the doing something that otherwise you're not gonna, know what they're doing something evil or unethical most people who do unethical things think they're doing ethical things. It's. Why have to grow? your children in a basic set values and ethics. Otherwise, you end up with people who think they're doing ethical things when they're doing deeply unethical things final question here: and swore Ben Rights, who is your favorite and least ever president in history, and why My favorite president in history is still George Washington being the most powerful person, the country having humbling to give up their power after having come back coming back saving the country during shit. Rebellion, for example. Its is an amazing character, is an amazing force in American in american history, an under did he saw you so well known that is actually underrated. George wash and is ok been mandated to read this last one just because sometimes I get hate mail and that's one. So this one Curtis and we'll show?
This is really more he's very upset that I let my morning show in LOS Angeles and he says, country was not built in forty hour increments, with every possible holiday off get to work. Shapiro, ok, so we're getting. Where there will be a Friday. So I think the routing in the new future.
