A everybody come on it, but it's time for coffee was got Evans. The best part of the day, yes, sometimes will be part of the day. When you said yourself, I wonder if this is better than coffee was got atoms and then you'll think yourself. No, that's crazy, of course, is not there This is the best time of the day and all you need to enjoy. It is a copper, mugger, Glass Anchorage, also style, the canteen jogger flask, a vessel of any kind fill me with your favorite liquid.

Like coffee and join me now for the unparalleled pleasure, the remainder of the day, the thing that makes everything better, it's called the simultaneous and if you're ready, it happens, now go simultaneity. It's the extra flavour that makes its best Well, I'm happy to announce that the air quality where I live in California is now moderate. Moderate! That's right! I can walk outside for short periods. yeah for a little while the weather to users and for a few days I could actually go outside? I can leave my house safely, not so much today, but I am looking forward to tomorrow.

Maybe tomorrow be better so how's everybody feeling about the country. How are you feeling about politics? How you feel about your personal situation? How about that girl a virus? I you feel about that. What about those poles? What about all the drama I feel about all this? Does it feel as though everything's going wrong in there's just seems always helpless? helpless and hopeless. That my friends does the third act. Yeah you're right in the middle of the third act. The way it's supposed to look like, there's no way out. if it looks, do you like? Oh my goodness,

There are lots of ways this could go, but none of them work especially good you're in the third act. How will they turn out? Well, we don't know yesterday that's what exit the third act. If you could see exactly how this will be resolved in a good way, it wouldn't be. The third act did see it's the unknown. That makes a special and let's talk about all of those things, but I will tell you that I remain optimistic, that's not to say that People will die from the krona virus and will be tragic. That's not to say that there will be more violence in the streets, I'm sure there will be and is now

to say that we will have all kinds of surprises in shocks in an punches in the stomach, but you know what we're ready were ready for. All of that we are so ready this country, and indeed the world we will get through this and we will get through it. Better, we'll be will be smarter will be stronger. Those of us who make it through, which would be most of us. One. What it was fun stories is happening is the Conway family, so Kelly, unkind ways taken time off for murder, professional life to be with the family and, of course,

you know her husband, George Conway is the president's one of its biggest critics. I guess he stepped back from baby credit for a while to, and they ve got a fifty year old, daughter, Claudia who is absolutely hilarious. I shall I feel bad for Gallienne and four George that they have to deal with a teenage daughter, but there's something about the whole story, the so the so completely human and reliable. That is just sort of perfect. If you haven't seen the latest video that fifty year old, Claudia posted than her mother did not appreciate acted throughout Europe, Kelly and swearing at her and then finding out that this is being recorded. Annex ii in those posts is posted on social media

I just I would just say. I have a good feelings about both the daughter and mother and and- and I have some sympathy for Georgia's well adjusted their going through it. None of its terribly important doesn't affect you. Does it affect me and I suppose it's a little bit embarrassing for them, but would you watch that reality show if the Conway's turned their their situation into a reality? Tv show I'd watch No I'd watch, so I just wish them. Well so Joe by Man is old town all last night and How many lives do you think he told of his town hall a lot your jaw balikh? You could put them together,

render published some servers. All his bigger sets always normalize, but he is still in big events. He still telling the Charlottesville fine people lie now. Just think about that. Think about the fact that for two years it has been massively debunk I mean is probably probably the debunking has been published more times than just about anything else in the last two years, and still the news silos are so tight that that their message doesn't penetrate the left. I would save fire to guess I would say ninety percent of the people who want to see it

primarily have no idea. The everybody even has tried to do, but the Charlottesville find people hooks. They wouldn't even be aware that there is another point of view and the starting point of view, which is the fact jacket didn't happen. Now read the transcript. It's obvious. It didn't happen so his primary really the thing that you bases its entire campaign on objectively easy to confirm didn't happen. Just never. literally just suddenly made up. Where are the people may it up as well? But here's the amazing thing if he asked people was the main reason that they don't President Trump, the number one reason would be. They say he doesn't tell the truth that would that would be the number one race and the guy running against him can tell oh

of a lie like the biggest lie in the last ten years and can completely get away with it now I'm just this is just serve amazing. They were at a point where there's just no importance the facts that the fact that those didn't happen has nothing to do with the fact that it will change the election. Doesn't matter matter, resources, bulging rain story. Let me tell you how I would love to see the third act get result I like to see Trump and by the way I don't think this lab, and so this is not what this is not protection and is also not one of those annoying recommendations for what the president's should say. Do you do read this article opinion pieces were: Where people will presume to say here's what the president should say he should. You should issue a statement.

This says less than the writer s efforts in his voice. All of that stuff just is so cringing to me and I'll. Tell you why none other people who would like to put words into Troms mouth could have done why you did, which has become president by saying the things he said. Instead of the things I think you should have said at what point do we say right except that it is not a coincidence that he says things we wouldn't say does things we wouldn't do, but it made him president so show you at least question your own judgment and say I I maybe I'm not so smart. Maybe I actually care

Well, what is the right thing to do? Maybe it's just the thing I would like to hear, but it would necessarily work politically. You can doubt the president's instincts at this point, his instincts to connect with the idea that the people as opposed to the pundits so years, is one of the things that bugs me like crazy. Is that there's a lot of magical thinking going on when people criticise the present and the magical thinking goes like this? There are other, residents were good moral character and this one is not, and therefore that's a problem when you say that that capture is pretty much the entire democrat problem with President Trump he's got.

A flawed moral character, they would say, and therefore having a president with a flawed moral character, is gonna. Get you a bad outcome right. That's their argument! There's a problem reminded me, which of our presidents have good moral, good, moral fibre. You got your presidency, you think had good moral fibre, but you don't know as much about them is. Perhaps I do. I do know some things that are just not public what it was about Nixon. What about? Bill Clinton, what about Obama everything you did was honest, never told a lie.

Anything will officially what about a bomb of possibly being behind, overthrowing the next to the administrative and spying on the job campaign is a pretty big moral failings, prairie bag? What about the founders literally slaveowners, great moral care? not by today's standards, I'm not even sure it was by those the standards of their own time. It wasn't even great moral character, necessarily don't know how they thought of it. But I don't think everybody thought it was great moral character. So I would say that its magical thinking to imagine that the better your moral character according to outside observers,

the better you're a result as president, I would say that there is absolutely no correlation in evidence at all, and yet it's the number one thing that the president's critics obsess on end and their alternative doesn't provide. It Biden provides nothing of the sort, if you want- is to get the president with good moral character. He just as an offer that not even close he's, not even in the General Zip code of good moral character. Is he a nice guy? Apparently I guess people like him in person is not very abrasive. That council right that we live in a world where people appreciate that, but does he lie like crazy? Does he have some potential Euro Ukraine issues?

Here was a maybe a little too involved and with Obama and spying on the Trump campaign. Probably has he ever told gigantic lies that are the type that would tear the country apart. Yes, the fine people looks so its deep magical thinking than Biden has good moral quality or that you needed some. How important it is a variable that matters at it. You may have noticed that there are clear something interesting in twenty sixteen I was sort of. A novelty as a appended on politics, because I wasn't known for talking about this stuff and I got invited a love of left, leaning platforms. Now some of it was because as promoting books, so it's easier to get invited places. If you

the book. But I was, and I was invited and mourning Joe I've been on CNN several times in the past I don't know said Aramis Andy onto I'm, not sure what you would call him politically yeah beyond. I was on the Morrow show real time. How many of those shows left, leaning platforms have invited beyond this time now keep in mind But the reason they invited me on is that I was a weird I was an oddity and I was I was saying that would win the election, so they made You like a weird crazy guy right, because I was predicting the unpredictable. but it turns out. I was right, He was right, but I turned out to be right about some other big stuff, including come. Let us getting as close as she has to the to the top of the ticket, and you

I think that if you started down unusual- and you showed that you were right, you would be invited to all of those places that had you on before, because I would say that they did find in terms of clicks, and they did find of audience, I don't think they lost their the audience by having on probably gained a little. So what are you? What are you making? The fact that I am completely shut out from the entire left silo means are afraid of me. Now they could be because I'm not interesting. the other personally but to compare these to these two explanations for I am shut out of the whole world. One is that ice Only became less interesting, even though for all of my traffic is higher than had ever done before. So, if you look at every objective measure of whether I'm interesting its,

The roof, all my numbers are our way up compared to what they were The alternative is seldom dangerous, in other words, I am a point of view which would penetrate the silo. I think that they know which people they can bring over and will be discounted by their audience. There there lots of strong voices. Then, if you bring them over, they gonna say stuff that our approach, Trump

But they won't, there will land they. They just one penetrate that here, the audience, but if you get somebody who can penetrate the audience they get black bald liquors, Steve Cortez, stiff cartels used to be on contracts were CNN, but I think it was what he would do. Bunks the fine people hoax was probably the last time they invited a mind. Even though you stolen contract, and then I guess the contract probably ran out so anybody organ who can break through the media. We get them out of their Cosette. The roadmap run all global deal about the poles. Do you believe the poles are coming out that are showing Trump is way way behind and following even deeper behind well

You probably saw the stories that the Democrats who being over sampled in these poles, so it looks like there's a big change, but maybe there is not. However, however, what if there is one if it turns out there is a big change in transit support lest they dropped the just drop the lot because of the hospital stay, the krona viruses situation, one if it dropped differently. only real I do. I think it would be real, but not real in the way that normally poles are real. Normally, poles are real in the sense that they might predict the future. I think

maybe real, as in there might be a real drop off people being unhappy about the the way the president handled his own infection and others. If there are unhappy about that, I think people vote in the polls. In other words, they show their displeasure. by expressing a to upholster, but when it comes to election day and they've got to pick up okay, now, I'm not just expressing my displeasure now, it's real, so I think that people who might end up voting for the president could be expressing their displeasure about whatever's happening this week by giving him a bad pole resulting just gonna vital vote for binding. Nor am not enough odour of overcome here, something I don't feel as if, when people turn against the president on a specific issue is heels more,

like they're trying to guide him because you know it looks at the ball we all know that you would be absolutely influenced by any strong poor movement. We know that I think people are not just telling you what they want. I think they're trying to influence the president, and if you see a big move based on a single topic, it might be people just sending a message. You know what I mean and might not reflect the final. So let us go over why you didn't right or wrong, and it's an interesting one, this I guess I ll save my summary for whether I think it's mostly writer mostly wrong, but here's what you So the president, as you know, left Walter Reed

earlier than most people would think he should all right. So the first thing you need to know is that he wanted. The president obviously wanted to manage the situation, so he would look a little bit of superhuman. Did he accomplish that? I think so. I think so, I think he accomplished make you look like his stamina is power. His health is vitality. Was more than a match for the krona virus? So What I have been medically advisable to stay a little bit longer, perhaps I'm no doctor? What do I know? Maybe, but was it a good move on the president's part to be aggressive on getting out there? I'm gonna say probably: yes, I think that none of that is slightly part. if not more than slightly, I think that people need to see their leaders acting strong.

even when we know that acting and that's important. When I see the president, like he's all healthy, You probably saw there some video of him breathing hard when he got back to the White House, clients stairs. He was obviously struggling to breathe, and you could tell them he was trying to not look like he was still struggling to breathe. In other words, it was obvious to anybody that he was putting on an act to look healthier than he might have. Ben. Are you bothered by that? Are you bothered by knowing his pulling honour and act, probably that you're probably not bothered by that are the job for the job of the leader is to look like a leader. Are you bothered by the fact that he wears a soon die when he is in the oval office?

what you should do is put on an act right. It is not naturally born in a suit and tie he's, acting like a president by dressing like one when he's in the oval office, so he's a big phony right cuz, he wears a suit in the oval office, now. We accept that a president needs to put on a show it's a shell, You might not want to call it a show, but it's a show and its its import. then he does the show right. It's part of parliament's good leader, so I would say that his his instinct to show strength is correct. You'll give out a push back from it, but I think that was a correct instinct. He didn't get everything right, though, so it's not gonna be all complements issue wondering. I hear something he said in a video. I said: don't let it dominates you meaning grown virus dont, be afraid of it. You're going to beat it

and he said he feels better than he did twenty years ago and don't let it take over your lives, they said non paraphrasing will about, but he says, as your leader I had to do, that I led and then I know there is a risk say you saying that he had to be a leader and basically do the same thing that he was asking of the public, which is to go about your business. Take a chance, Jake Tapir enter. where does that as he insanely is saying that he intentionally got the virus to be a good leap that exactly what he said, the sad affair affair characterisation they do the present say he intentionally got the virus because it would make a better leave her now

exactly what happened, but we'll people see it that way or hear that way that might make. So let us look at his specifics. evidence about, don't let it Donna you dont, be afraid of it, etc. It hears here's the problem. If you thought he was gonna commanded, the hospital, if you thought I was gonna, come out of the hospital with humility as in well now that I've had grown a virus, I'm a changed person. Well, you probably haven't met tromp. There wasn't much chance. He was gonna come out of the hospital, a change person I forget which bonded it was. I was listening to. It was just laughing at the notion that he would come out as a different person because it is sort of funny when you think about it, he's not really going to be a different person.

We should assume that building corona virus or bacon more trump and not less trump. So how do you feel about the fact he's telling people not to be afraid of it, etc. Well, I'm not sure he's nailing the messaging, so I would not give them an a on the messaging there. I do think that people could take it the wrong way as if he's not taking you seriously enough, so I think that he may have exacerbated the you know. The number of people who say he's not taking you seriously will have even more to you than they had before, so that part's not good, but your support, this imponderable and really here's the part that matters is the president matching the public

the messaging that the experts would want to use most of the experts. They would not want him to say what he saying most of the pundits you have. The people really pay attention to the news. Most of them would also say, don't like the way you did that he is under playing it, etc. If you added together all of the experts and all of the pundits, it would be this little sliver of the total population, tiny, tiny, tiny sliver of the population. Do they matter? Well, they matter in terms of influencing other people's opinions. But what about the public in general is the Publican.

then let's say Republicans in particular: are they closer to trumps point of view? Were they true closer to the Pandit splendid view? I dont know exactly, but my sense of it as my instinct, is that the public is right there with him. Did you get that sense now because of the public that never means all of the public right? There's always that big, solid blocker Democrats, late and no matter what he does so they'll be against that? No matter what? But, in general, when you say the Republicans are more pro, take the risk get back to work and and might even appreciate the fact that he model that behaviour I've got a feeling that there are far more. People who are a little bit silent, who were on his side about,

being a little more aggressive and going back to work and opening things up. I just don't know you're seeing their point of view. Here's why you don't see that point of view because in order to be honest about it, you would have to say the following: this would be an honest opinion and that's why you don't see it. It's just too honest and it would go like this. I think is more important for young people to you to live their life and avoid whatever mental health in the stunted educational problems will have. I think, there's more important and keeping the company strong is more important. Those two things: the health of the young, the mental health, but also opening the economy and given that a strong is more important.

then the lives of the elderly Americans. If you can't say that you can't be honest, at least in the point of view can be ass. Now, there's somebody who says: oh, you gotta, just pray, to protect the old people while they been liars, because one of the ways to protect them is by keeping the economy's wrong. How do old people get paid their sources, social security, How are they projected? How did they get healthcare if the economy falls apart laid out, old people will be very vulnerable to a collapsing economy may be them, maybe the most vulnerable, and if you, if you And say this clearly is: I can set- and I say this this is that my actual opinion now ok. So this is not an example opinion. My actual honest opinion,

Tell me how many people will be willing to say this in public. It is my honest opinion that we should set as a priority the youth and the economy of the country, and then should we should places higher priority than the lives, the actual life life and death of senior citizens. That's an honest opinion now you can certainly disagree with that. But if you're disagreeing remember you just agree to disagree and about extent, and maybe timing cuz everybody understands you need a strong economy or else you're in big so we know we need to do both right Nobody, you so dumb that we only need to look at health. We only need to look at the economy we now it's a year were we're gonna between those variable The whole time, but I underscore say straight out.

How in the world do we ever get back to work? Until you can say what I, when what I can say now, I'm in live a few money, so I can say things in public look here, but I'm just as they have spread out. I value who use. Their lives and the economy which supports us all, including senior citizens. I value those higher. Then I value the life, the actual lives. People are gonna, die big numbers of senior citizens. Now I've got a little bit of credibility. Saying that, because I am a senior is right, some sixty three and I've got asthma, so I'm at risk very much at risk. So when I say that I value the lives of the young and the economy over the older people I'm saying I value them over myself, I'm saying it clearly. I value them over myself.

Indeed, if you gave me a choice and said, here's the deal, TAT choice, Scott, The only way young people are going to do well is, if I'm sorry, but you have to die, we don't have a second way to do this. It's just the only way to do it are you out? Are you also that. I wouldn't like it wouldn't be very happy about that choice, but I know what I Jews. I've had a good run and I would make that choice. So I think most people would actually, especially if you you're over eighty. I think Is it a pole of people over eighty and he said, here's the deal you ve gotta. percent chance of going a little bit earlier, and am I not wasn't, but anyway, you guys isn't gonna, be fun. So what do you do.

I think eighty year olds would be on the same page. So my might take on Trump is that the funds will ripple apart the experts war rapid apart, and they all do the thing where they don't have to talk about trade ass, though just talk about health, as if the economy is even part of the question, so I feel like the president's in better shape than the pundits realise, because I think he's just way closer to the public on this.

That's my dick! So here the things which he perhaps did not do as in a spectacular where these Essen tradeoff so just saw being fair, because I know the other biggest criticism I get, which is completely inaccurate, is that I always say good things about Trump. So if you one of those people who thinks, I only say good things about Trump stay dude, you like the spark so here's some things that are not so good, certainly by downplaying the virus, even though there is a reason for it, and I understand the reason I'm good- cause people to wear fewer masks, and maybe that makes a difference. Do I know that masks make a difference. I do not, but I also don't know that they don't make a difference. So

when so many experts being pretty sure that they do make a difference. The risk management suggests that you should go anywhere them because I might add, as such, higher high stakes. You should do it if it might work citing downplaying the virus has a downside as an upside as well. If we get back to work and we're not afraid but deadly isn't so he did go out again and say that the corona virus use comparing it to regular, flew again. Is it good for the president to compare corona virus to regular flu? It is terrible. It's terrible, probably one of the worst things you can do, because it's the one

thing that guarantees all the experts in all the pundits will climb on top EU and there's just no reason for it. He doesn't need to compare it to the regular flew to make his case there. We should still go back to work. You just don't need that comparison, the route it works against his credibility. Now. The other thing, if you haven't heard this before the the numbers of deaths from the regular flu, are complete bullshit, as far as I can tell have you ever met or heard of or no of anyone who ever done of the regular flew! Maybe some of you do. I don't I've been around for debt it's that I've never heard of anybody dying of regular, flew if there were any burn near fifty thousand deaths a year. You wouldn't know somebody, I mean

Fifty thousand deaths a year would be about the number of automobile accidents somewhere in the range automobile accents do you know anybody personally who died in an automobile accident? Yeah? You do you. Do you probably know several people who have died in one or more real accidents about him? guns gun DES there's, someone, neighbourhood of automobile accidents is somewhere in the low tens of thousands ear right. Do you know anybody who ever got killed by a gun that you do? Probably? I know one two three knows people were killed by guns, but I know anybody who died from the flu. The regular flew- and I tweeted this morning and articles- maybe you ve seen before, in which a doctor explains that we don't count regular, flew DES when he said.

We don't count them so when somebody says they were fifty thousand flu deaths where's. That number come from well, not from counting, I don't know where it comes from, but it doesn't come from anybody counting anything Apparently they get lumped in with pneumonia deaths and it's some kind of an estimate based on excess deaths or something, but there doesn't seem to be backing for that and in fact the real number of flu deaths might be. Ten percent of what's reported. So every time you president compares through the virus to seasonal flu, he looks uninformed, even though his point about don't be so afraid. Go back. That might still be the right thing to do. Leadership wise I just want to use this comparison is just asking for trouble.

What about him driving around in putting his secret service at risk by having them in the car with him, as he drove around to wave to supporters on the plus side? I think it was valuable. Because it does show that the leader is alive is still making decisions. He can see Mobility asked today, but he did but the sea the service at a little bit of risk, probably not allowed a little bit better. You feel about it. You know, feel good about India. I would say that was there would be a mistake. I would say there was something to gain and he gave the witches. He showed the world. These laws but there is also something lose. Does it look the wool selfish? So I think I think that was a net negative. Wasn't it wasn't a complete negative? Does there was something gained and it was real as what he wanted to go.

But I'm gonna judge that one slight negative, then what about the I should have going home too soon, or is it do so? I would say: that's a slight negative again, because people are gonna criticising forget, I'm too? They might criticism for exposing more people by going back to us. But we assume that all these good measures to keep him socially distance, but that part is also true. I would say that going home too soon. He could. waded another day. couldn't wait. Another two days would be fine, I think, but make here like you Superman and going home soon. Probably a little more benefit then caused Sunday, again there was a no.

own benefit use going, for. I think he got it makes it look sort of like the strong and vital, but there's a cost. It looked like it modem, a little bad judgment to go back that soon I'd say slave sleigh, positive there, but not a lot. What about his always tweets in all caps

the day, I think was the day went back and he started the morning with all the tweets in all caps. Now, good, not good, if you add up the all caps tweeting and the fact that he said he feels better than he did twenty years ago. That sort of strongly suggests that the the steroid take drugs he's on might have an influence on his personality. Now I told you, from my experience from Prentice sounded a completely changes. Your personality. You you become very aggressive and you think you can conquer the world and you do feel twenty years younger. Indeed, you may remember that I explained it exactly in the same terms, I said the unpaid

zone. You actually just feel like a young person, it just completely turned. You went to the. In my case. I felt twenty five. I could do any exercise all day without getting sore. You do anything. It was like a super junk. Now I worry that when you take somebody with trumps personality, you put them on a super drug that makes you feel stronger and more confident and more aggressive. Then you would have felt normally, It's not a good situation, and I would go so far as to say I'm not a doktor. So obviously this would be a doctor decision, not a not a Scot watching from thousands of miles away decision, but I would like an answer on whether you should be twenty fifth amendment. It and tents should be in charge while he's on their drunk. So let me say that again, could you not like it?

make sure that when I say something you don't like, I say really clearly he's showing some indications. The all caps tweeting real, tell. With the twenty years younger, with the going home a little early being a little aggressive and stuff. and then just the way he's talking about beating the virus and don't be afraid of it. If you put it all together, again, I'm not a doctor, I'm just a citizen who doesn't want the country to blow up in it in a nuclear fireball. That's all that's where I come from. I think the question asked me asked. The question has to be asked if he should be taken off

the old until his off that drug- and I like to unlikely here is doctor, say now: there's no there's no change in his personality from that drug. That might be the case I like here, the doctors say now known at the at the levels we gave it to him. You don't even have to worry about side of it. cuz, because we gave him so little. I of that's the case. I'm just saying that if the doktor told me that I'd say K still sanely signs You're the doktor? I'd be willing to go with the professional opinion who was close to it, but without that wit without doktor, saying ok, I hear what you're saying I hear what you say about his personality change and that would match the side effects that are known with this drug. So maybe we just give the nuclear codes depends for a week, just maybe that one thing at the very least I would like to speak directly to

presently nuclear chain of command if you get it, if you get a nuclear rack command from president from this week, maybe get a second opinion. That's all! I'm saying If the word comes down to launch the nuclear arsenal this week, first thing you should do is call pants. The first thing you should do is not March first thing call my pants get a second opinion. that's what I do and Uncombed Lou serious about this by the way. Based on my own recent experience with prejudice and it's a different drugs, but I think some similarities. Reporters are bad because I guess the way out put them at risk and, also other their reports that the White House in general, the staff, was not taken seriously. The social distancing

did not take seriously the mask wearing and got exactly the predicted outcome, a bunch of us, actions which would also have an effect on the reporters. Do you think the reporters are happy, the ones that cover the White House Marcella happy not so happy at all somebody's argue with me in the cut in the comments, all caps doesn't equal aggression any one of those signs, the all cabs here, the acting Strawn likeable feeling better than twenty years ago. All of those things individually.

Are not alarming year. If you saw any one of them, you say whatever is just a collection of them, combined with the fact that use on a drug that would cause you to act exactly like that. So you just ask the question asked me: asked he now, here's the other question: do you think that a president should know it Give you the truth. Do you think that is the job of the president? The always give you the accurate story about anything. I would argue no, it is not the present his job to give you the truth, and indeed if your president only ever gave you the truth, you want to get rid of that present very quickly. When we give you some examples. Should the press, Tell you what all other options are for military responses? No, of course not. You dont want the president

Telling the adversary is what our military options are or what we're thinking about that were what we know about their military plans. So when it comes to military stuff, you do want the president. The lie to the public, because it's important: what about the economy? Do you want the president to tell you precisely exactly the truth about the economy or would you like? Maybe we call it an enhanced version of the truth?

We say a little extra on top of the truth, which would be better. What will be better as the extra telling talking about the economy in dry, accurate terms is not good for the economy is, as I've told you many times the economy is. He is a psychology machine. If you get the psychology right, then people feel optimistic and they have confidence, they invest they buy and that's what drives economy. So, if you don't give the economy confidence, it doesnt operate right. So should the President give you in That description of the economy, with no hyperbole or should the president be largely true, would give you a little extra, so Save yourself wow, that's a little better than I thought it was I better invest all that sounds pretty good. I think I'll spend a little extra cuz. I think things are going to go well. The answer is your president should lie to you.

Doesn't matter whether the present those they should lie to you a little bit. Maybe maybe a twenty percent lie would be about right. You should talk up the economy, you should say it's better than it is you say it's going in the right direction, even if it's not quite the optimism that the president puts on the economy is one of the strongest one of the strongest qualities as a president. Now, what about corrode of ours is crowd a virus and because this is health, should the President give you an exact you're, really accurate, dry, no hyperbole, no exaggeration, nothing left out any any bad news included should give you the most accurate news he could give you about the corona virus. well a lot of people say yes, a lot of people say: let us decide let the citizens this. I will decide, however,

did, we are, will decide what to do with it. Just be accurate. Does give us the accurate information. That's that's a reasonable opinion. I'd say, and it is a better reasonable opinion in my opinion, that he should talk it up a little bits. In other words, he should try to it. If, if we know that the guy all is to open up, because the alternative is worse. So the alternative to stay in closed. That's just worse, we have to bear options. One is really bad. One is not quite as bad. We hope opening up, but they both have lots of risks under those conditions. What do you want your leader to tell the country if you know that what's good for the country as they take on some risk, what is the best way to treat that.

Probably something pretty close to the way is doing it, which is is underplay the risk because they want you to go back to work now is buddy unaware deserve any Absolutely knows this. doesnt now they could die from the crowd of virus nope, There's not one person in the United States, not a single person who doesn't understand that they personally could die from the grown up. They also know that experts have these recommendations about what to do and what not to do people are pretty well in. So when the president gives you a little, though said was say, twenty percent extra enhanced the same message because I don't want to say that is wrong or as a lie, because nothing is not the president's job. To give you accuracy, it suppresses job to lead.

And sometimes the leader needs, to paint a picture of where you're heading and it's a little bit rosier, then maybe accuracy, woods Just if you had a military leader, you need them to say we're. Gonna win this fight go into battle, you dont want them dwelling on leave the casualties, If you you don't want your general to say, man is going to be a lot of people dead in this battle, two out of three of you or going to be dead, but I'll go out there and do it anyway. That's not very motivated. It is good that people know the risks, but I think they do from the x. From the funds from the news- and I don't think is wrong for the president to put the better spent on that's, probably the right instinct was at the marine more endowed sat down in a tweet winter. What do the doors Walter Reed had a stellar reputation as he walks out? Seven,

two hours later is reputation is in tatters. There's nothing trump care ruin while there's nothing. He doesn't change. That's for sure, and I have to admit I would agree with her that Walter Reed was diminished by this experience the the doktor who came out and lied about giving tromp oxygen. Now he didn't technically lie right. He weasel worded it. So you didn't have to answer the question. The first day later, he kind of admitted that he had lived, but you didn't say allied As soon as that happened as soon as I saw that doctor calmly was it weasel words like did he get has at present, received action. He's not on oxygen? Now,

it has now. Are we asked what has the present ever been on oxygen for the corona virus? Ah going forward, he is not going to be on oxygen. Ok sounds like you're lying to us, we'll, try it again it as the present ever in the best, then on oxygen. While he's gone on oxygen now, really now you might say to yourself: ok somebody got to the doktor and said. Ok doctor, you don't mention this initial oxygen because he's not now it was not that important. You want to manage what the what the public thinks and somehow they got this poor doktor to lie. public. I'm not happy about that right, but I also think it was his own. Damn fault Did anybody twisted doctors arm to make him lie? Probably probably don't you think there was a

arm twisting going on behind the scenes Doctor Are you do don't mention the oxygen that I got one day one you mean a lot to me now: doktor doesn't want to get fired. Rapid the doktor doesn't want to get fired by the President because handling the president is a big honours your father and your cap, you don't wanna, get fired from that, and you know the president would fire you you what the doctor would fire President Harvey if he wasn't getting? What he wanted so was was the doktor. Directly or by implication, were even by reputations trumpets, a fire

was he coerced into lie? Probably probably, but whose fault is it still? The DR? Nobody moved his lips all right. He had a choice and I think that the reputation of Walter Reed definitely took a hit because of that first lie after that. Every that you, don't you don't believe anything after the first see. What else we got going on here here is There is a better way that I would frame the president's leadership, as you saw from the Jake Tapir Comment, which was yeah you you knew that he was vulnerable to this comment that the present was wonderful, the comment being that the president blundered into

bring the krona virus, and now he is trying to act as though it was part of his leadership to get the virus and show that we could live through it or something and, of course, that's very remarkable position, so they say that they have laws. Replied. The doktor could answer that question. That's not good enough! I know your same. That's not good because a doctor obviously could have gotten permission to say anything. You wanted, or he could have said, I'm just not talking about the first day he didn't have to lie. That was a choice, so here's a better framing instead of saying that he he got it says it is part of good leadership outside this way that the country values, freedom, Over absolute safety right, the country values freedom over absolute safety

and that's a really strong frame, because you say that and people when this issue here that you might want argue with it and you say yes, but ok, let's just true, The country values, freedom over absolute safety what the president was doing was modeling exactly that I was using experiencing his own freedom, meaning use a little lacks with the masks and social distancing and that freedom at a price. you, pay the price and he's asking other people too. Similarly, too,

value, freedom. First, that's gonna, get you! Your economic success is gonna get you. Some benefits outweigh but value freedom and the economic goodness that comes with it. Just now is now free. If the president said to the public, we're gonna, take our freedom back and it's gonna be expensive. How do you feel about that? Not bad right? We're gonna, take our freedom back from the corona virus. Little by little time. We're gonna be smart about it. We can listen to the experts, but we're gonna. Take our freedom back, we're gonna. Do it the right way, but we're gonna take her freedom back and some people are not gonna make it. Some people are not gonna make it. If you say that some of you won't make it we're gonna, take our freedom back, be smart

Be strong, be brave, but just know we're not all going to make it. How did how do you feel about that message? It works right because it suddenly puts the entire two hundred thousand people who died into a different frame If what we are trying to do is say of every person, that's pretty bad performance, but we worked. There was never a point. Where are we said to ourselves? Would save everybody never said that there was the point where we were always consciously say really every point: we're gonna trade freedom for safety,

now more than a year working own tweak it as we go because we don't know if we gave up too much freedom didn't get enough. Safety will have to keep to weaken this thing, but it is a freedom versus versus safety. If you make it Economics versus Helen you. Ve already lost this at the moment you say: are the frame? Is economics, money money, you capitalist, greedy pigs, you fascists money, economics. versus you, gotta grandma die. Are you? Are you serious, groundless gonna die for your fascist economic, selfish money? So that's a terrible frame economics versus health freedom risk

risk totally different. We're we're all designed to understand freedom, verses risk. You make that decision every time you get in the car every time you get your car you're, not making an economics versus health decisions. Are you you're making your freedom, verses risk and are being similar, but sounds better though it that's why I got. That is what I wanted to talk about today. So I got a sign off Roma periscope. You you, two people I'll be here for another minute, so I'll talk to you later I'll, write you tumors just ass. Now, yes, Franklin said those who love safety over freedom will have neither.

I'll just go: look here: commentaries we're gonna wind down. What's my election protection, you know, I would say that the slaughter metre, as I like to call it had been pinned at a hundred per cent But we are right in the middle of the third act right now. So this is the point the point when the slaughter meter should be the lowest if everything dont lab, I would say the slaughter meter today is probably at thirty percent. Probably thirty percent. Now don't panic, because the slaughter meter does not predict the election. That's not what is, for your predicts, things are going today. So every day is different. Today could be two hundred percent of the slaughter meter variously, just just any event happens, so keeping them

I would say that this should be the lowest point for the slaughter meter and that you should see. You should see some big changes now. If the president takes the framing than I suggested of the freedom of services risk, he can recover acquainted quite quickly if he keeps it as economics, verses life and death and tries to tries to minimize the life and death bar wall maximizing the economic part. it's not a strong, so we'll see Yale you the whole story about the extra documents that the Gina Haskins,

as over the CIA in their summer reported. I dont believe it, but there are some reports that gene Asko might be trying to slow walk the release of some documents because she is, she could personally be embarrassed in some way. Maybe maybe but I'll tell you one thing: if trumpet does not

re election. All of that, all in all, a visa plotters behind the Russia collusion Hoax, the Argo free if Trump doesnt, when all that will just go away, John Bretton Woods will be completely off the hook. So there's a lot at stake to slip, ear comments now somebody says: if John doesn't wind enjoy civil war. Here's what I think. I think that there is basically no chance of the civil war. There's a hundred percent chance, that'll be violence on the streets if Trump wins but is now can be the kind of violence that is a whole with a whole different standard than what we see in the last several months.

be more of that and they'll be united by be a lot more that at the beginning, but I take it ll ass. I think people will just get used to it. Somebody says I'm wrong on civil war, so there Somebody here wants to take a ban on civil war or make a bet against civil war and hear these factors I look How many people in your neighborhood are in favour of civil war in my neighborhood? I think the number might be zero. I don't think there's everybody in my neighborhood

once a civil war, probably the total number of people in this country want to civil war like point, although one percent, now what would keep those people from being enough because it doesn't take many people to topple a country right if they do it right, I would argue that we have a superpower in this country and its called gun ownership. Notice that we all of the protests their staying within a certain level of violence, meaning that it's mostly webs, a number allows pepper spray, bottles of water and stuff the rest, It doesnt escalate to actual guns is utter. The round gun the minute that the protesters went to the next level, where they they started. Shooting at every event.

we'll get close down, so the government were closed down if it became guns. If the government didn't close it down, started spreading into the suburbs, and there was real gunfire every time the the armed Americans would just snuffed out and about a weekend, with. There are so many guns in this country. We, I don't know if it's a silver work and happen unless you actually add something like thirty percent of the country, one to do it, you don't get a civil war. What will you let me summarize The situation with in which you will not have a civil war is if the.

The people want to our point out below one percent of the public and in the end is important and we are armed to the teeth in every household, because its armed to the teeth, the makes it possible for the small numbers to become a bigger and to take over a small number could bully people you just to them if they didn't have guns, if you can just go to somebody's house, pushing their door and bully them into doing whatever you wanted. You'd probably could ever breathing revolution with a very small number of people were revolution but when their armed. The only way you gonna take over the suburbs is with more power and you don't have more power, because the suburbs or just bristling with weapons

So now I love about a revolution. We will work it out. That's the Good NEWS, I'll talk to you tomorrow,.
